    You see how that’s still bad right? I’m saying let’s not just ignore ANY of these statistics and y’all are trying to do gymnastics to make a dumb meme more rational.

        Yeah, exactly - that’s what I mean. Hypothetically, if 50% of the violence done by women involves men, then the 82% is really more like 91%, and the violence attributed to women starts to look more and more like a rounding error. This meme is getting more rational all the time. It’s almost like bringing statistics into it does nothing but present a lame fig leaf to cover up the underlying, endemic problem that inspired the meme in the first place.
