Really what it comes down to is fear. Fear of something unknown (or even a fear of yourself - repressed homosexuality) breeds hatred. Violence is externalized hatred, which is the ego’s attempt at quelling the fear.
It sounds corny, but the moment folks stop allowing fear to govern their behavior and actions, is the moment when love (lack of fear) can start becoming the norm.
And really, it all comes down to patriarchy… It’s bad for almost everyone, men included

Patriarchy, Authoritarianism, Capitalism, all of this shit combined.
and too many people are too invested in the system to change anything.
