Honestly, changing the saying to “I hate most men” is a really minor change and would cover for criticism from those asshole men. And it makes more sense for our usage.
They are already refusing to change though. “I hate all men” clearly it’s really winning them over, and it just makes it easier to discredit us as misandrists.
Everything is becoming so polarized that we are losing nuance. If we ever want to actually change things for the better, we have to stop reaching for the easy slogans and bring the nuance back.

Exactly the same as when they say “all men are dangerous” instead of “all unknown men have the potential to be dangerous”

But then less men would self-identify as assholes in the responses.
Don’t worry, they will find a way to show us they are assholes. They always do.
