Imagine if the police brutality movement was called “Black Lives Matter More Than White People’s Need To Oppress”. It’s working a needless insult into the message.

I’d also be okay with other phrases highlighting how safety is a bigger topic for women than men realize, but not one that makes assumptions about “all men”. Even if I was a guy who largely hated the actions of my own gender, you think you’ll get 50% of the world on board by doing that?

Does the sign say "all men"? If it did, would it matter? This is the most engagement I've ever seen on Lemmy regarding the issue of women's safety, sorry you don't approve of it.
