the amount of pretty cool dudes who get a ton of shit in feminist communities is pretty ridiculous. there was one dude in a forum i (used to) frequent that mentioned that he really wanted to talk about some issues specific to men with more socially enlightened/thoughtful people (many of whom collect in feminist circles) and he was roundly vilified. "why are you trying to bring this discussion here men have discussion spaces everywhere" &c, and when he tried to explain he'd found other communities to discuss certain issues for men but they were quite misogynist, he then got a ton of flack for participating in communities that were known to be misogynist.
dude could not get a break
anyways, compassionate education > righteous vilification

if everyone knew racism was wrong, everyone would know racism is wrong. as with all social issues, I consider the best solution has to do with addressing education and health issues on a global level. getting angry at your friends, or on Facebook, or on the internet is really unproductive and only widens the gulf between opinions. (not to say I haven't done this more than once :-)
it's when you can resolve your anger productively and start to look at racism mechanically that you really put yourself in a position to change things.
