Then you’re reading studies rather than just looking at the entirety of history rife with examples that show the contrary.

And the same with men. Men were not given general franchise, men have been forced to labor and be conscripted and killed, the list goes on. Men have singularly been the target of most violence in society since as far as can be stated. I can play this game too, and it gets nobody anywhere. The blame game, which is largely what feminism these days seems to be about, is just like every other ideology. Like communism or anything else. It lacks nuance, does not map reality, and creates a fiction of victimization.

Regardless, no one said other people don’t get called those things but it’s definitely more women than men.

Citation needed. I've no doubt you feel that way, but there are also studies about that too. Women are more reactive to online trolling and harassment than men tend to be. https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2017/07/11/online-harassment-2017/

"Overall, men are somewhat more likely to experience any form of harassing behavior online: 44% of men and 37% of women have experienced at least one of the six behaviors this study uses to define online harassment." - but women are more likely than men to view this as a problem.

Just because men of lower stature are treated poorly by men of higher stature doesn’t mean society don’t hate women, which is what you’re arguing. Your argument is of wealth vs. poverty but this is about sex.

Your study isn’t specific to this issue either. You specifically were talking about being called a TERF/transphobe. Considering the original use of TERF meant only women could be one as it was talking about radical feminist women who didn’t want men, no matter identity, in their feminism, I can assure you that far more women have been called it.

Okay, this clearly isn't working. You make two claims: 1. Society hates women, 2. Women are called these things more. Citation needed. Evidence your claims or admit you can't.

People agreeing to exchange money for sex is not "society hating" either sex. Both men and women have to voluntarily agree to film it. People on twitter are absolute shitheads to everyone. Should I have cataloged all the threats and shit I received? Does that mean I get to declare society hates me? Come on. Surely you recognize how ridiculous that is as "evidence".
