"You should create a group when demand is there and not the other way around." In other words, start from generalist communities, and create more specialized ones when there is a need. Do you agree? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Back with newsgroups the general rule was to go from general to specific. You start with a general discussion group and when discussions about video games get annoying you create a games group. If then there are too many Baldur’s Gate discussions you create BG. If they are dominated by Baldur’s Gate 3 you create a Baldur’s Gate 3 group. If everyone is fawning over Withers you create a Withers group which of course will be flooded with discussion about the Withers’ tits mod, which shall get its own group.

Meaning you should create a group when demand is there and not the other way around.

I personally saw it more as a sign that as a society men should still work to make sure than women feel safe.

I follow French news, and the bear thing happened at the same time as two large trials

So 50 men in a random small town in France ("Not monsters, ordinary people"), and the venerable figure of one of the most beloved French person, have been convicted of rape.

Not to say that there isn't ragebait in the initial question, but the societal issue is still very present.
