I've not really seen a hatred of women from you and beliefs that you're owed sex from women. Unless I'm not remembering?Maybe back in 2016-2018 when you were toxic? But that was more racism and transphobia and general drunken asshatery, which you've seem to largely grown out of.
You still need to work on the transphobia a bit though. Really, just let it go.

Your problem is you make the same mistake all leftists make, by confusing bigotry and criticism.
Adam said how Jews used to be a people you simply couldn't criticize, until the alt-right started crossing that line with their anti-Semitism.
Ok, even if it is 100% that most "critics" are really disguising bigotry, that still doesn't mean criticism is off limits! Nobody deserves to be an untouchable. And being a protected group doesn't mean you can't act collectively in ways deserving of criticism.
I know you know all this, and I think you believe suppression of racists justifies some degree of unbalanced scales. The problem is bad actors know this, and take advantage.

Wrong again. It wasn't legit criticism, which is fine. It was ugliness.
Anti-Antisemitism isn't legit criticism. Since you seem to not understand again, I'll show you via examples:
Legit criticism: "Israel's government needs to stop its apartheid-like treatment of Palestinians."
Anti-Antisemitism: "Jews control all the banks and they run the world and cause all the wars."

Incel Pleads Guilty in Plot to Kill Thousands of Women
A self-identified "incel" pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio today to attempting to conduct a mass shooting of women.
Tres Genco, 22, of Hillsboro, Ohio admitted he plotted to commit a hate crime; namely, a plan to shoot women at a university in Ohio. He was arrested by federal agents in July 2021 and has remained in custody since.
According to court documents, Genco maintained profiles on a popular incel website from at least July 2019 through mid-March 2020, and posted hundreds of times on the site.
In one post, Genco detailed spraying "some foids and couples" with orange juice in a water gun. "Foids" is an incel term short for "femoids," referring to women.
Genco compared his "extremely empowering action" to similar conduct by known incel Elliot Rodger. In May 2014, Rodger killed six people and injured 14 others, including shooting individuals outside a University of California, Santa Barbara sorority house. Prior to his mass attack, Rodger shot a group of college students with orange juice from a water gun.
Genco also wrote a manifesto, stating he would "slaughter" women "out of hatred, jealousy, and revenge" and referred to death as the "great equalizer."
As part of this investigation, law enforcement agents discovered a note of Genco's that indicated he hoped to "aim big" for a kill count of 3,000 people with a reference to the same date as Elliot Rodger's attack, and intended to attend military training.
The investigation revealed that the day he wrote his manifesto, he searched online for sororities and a university in Ohio.
In 2019, Genco purchased tactical gloves, a bulletproof vest, a hoodie bearing the word "Revenge," cargo pants, a bowie knife, a skull facemask, two Glock 17 magazines, a 9mm Glock 17 clip, and a holster clip concealed carry for a Glock.
Genco attended Army Basic Training in Georgia from August through December 2019. He was discharged for entry-level performance and conduct.
In January 2020, Genco wrote a document entitled "isolated" that he described as "the writings of the deluded and homicidal." Genco signed the document, "Your hopeful friend and murderer."
Genco pleaded guilty to one count of attempting to commit a hate crime, which, because it involved an attempt to kill, is punishable by up to life in prison.

The mass shooter who killed at least eight people at an Allen, Texas mall on Saturday frequently posted white supremacist and neo-Nazi materials on social media, according to an FBI bulletin.The FBI's "review and triage of the subject's social media accounts revealed hundreds of postings and images to include writings with racially or ethnically motivated violent extremist rhetoric, including neo-Nazi materials and material espousing the supremacy of the white race," the bulletin reads.
The document also says the shooter was discharged from the military in 2008 amid "mental health concerns." Investigators believe the shooter was a neo-Nazi and an incel, according to an internal email circulated by Texas law enforcement.
