Why is it surprising? This is the angle they've been pushing since the 90s to prove that "masculinity" is toxic and evil.
You are seeing it with the possibility in your heart of men deserving sympathy, they are seeing it as men being defective women who need to be "fixed."
I think part of the problem here is that people on Reddit advocate the Feminist Marxist Metanarrative of men as a class of evil, undeserving of sympathy or tolerance, let alone respect, and then claim that this attitude is the result of Toxic Masculinity.
"Yes, men feel like this because you hate them, you disrespect them, and you tell them they are fundamentally a threat to society. They have nowhere to turn because when they turn to you, you tell them to kill themselves."
This is how they feel in reality, but what they say out loud is men can gain these things by becoming basically exactly like women: emotional, pathetic, and submissive.
When we all know that's the quickest way to lose their respect, whereas acting in the exact way they claim is the most evil will have them following you like horny dogs.
Unfortunately yes, but as I've said before, there's a real problem here.
Men shouldn't treat women like garbage, but they need to be stoic, disciplined, and strong; such that they can provide and protect those women.
HOWEVER, this is not where the obligation stops. Strong men need to teach women (because no one taught them before), that women have an obligation to men. That obligation must be to: inspire men, restore men, and build them a home/family/community.
Women can't do it themselves and no one ever taught them, so it's on us as their husbands and boyfriends, to demand it of them. And yeah, not ask, but to actually set the standard that they are to meet, and as a result we must meet their standards as well.
