This just doesn’t work in practice. If you speak up about anyone at work posting hateful content about men or white people, you will be ignored and are likely to receive disciplinary action yourself.

Even worse so, if you complain about misandrist words like “mansplaining” or “techbros” being used AT work, nothing will happen. This is purely one sided and makes workplaces extremely toxic.

I can not comment on specific events, is a really good expression. Even if you give a detailed explanation chances are I am going to see too many holes in it, just by coming from a different perspective. I've been a techbro at times, even though I'm a convinced feminist, but I also like to hear when my action are experienced that way. So I should not comment on your situation, I can just say that there are examples where complaints about that should at least taken lightly.
