Is "don't shit on people for being different from you" really that hard to grasp? Just punch the people who're punching you, and don't punch the people who aren't punching you. Don't worry about whether they're in some group that makes it more acceptable for you to punch them or vice versa.

It's tricky in cases like this, I think, because there *are* very valid criticisms to be made of masculinity/the social and cultural structures connected to masculinity (I'm trying to condense a really complex network of things into a manageable idea, but I hope you get the picture). Like, should you shit on men *for being different*, of course not, but women as a group have some very fair criticisms to make of men as a group. The problem, as I think Coates shows really well through some personal experiences, is when it *is* just taking advantage of what's acceptable to be an asshole to someone who happens to be in the Acceptable Target group.

I don't agree. If "punching up" wasn't acceptable we wouldn't have BLM.
