    This poster/meme might work better if it aimed for equality and that it doesn’t exclude anyone.

    Who does it exclude?

      Technically, everyone that doesn’t identify as “men”. But it’s done in the abstract, negative space of the message by not saying it. Subtle, but without clarifying things, it’s left open to this interpretation.

        Do you also complain that gay pride and black history month aren’t inclusive of everyone?

            I don’t see how your argument is anything other than “Memes about men aren’t inclusive. What about everyone else?”

            The fact that men are privileged overall doesn’t mean they don’t have issues. Acknowledging those issues but requiring an additional acknowledgement that other groups exist and have issues is the same thing as ‘all lives matter’.

        It isn’t inclusive of everyone because it is about a specific group. I’m getting ‘all lives matter’ vibes from your comment.
