Pibón weighs in: Every man is toxic!!!!!!!
Pibón weighs in on male toxicity and the social media debate

A recent article by comedian Victoria Martín in *El Mundo*, where she reflects on human nature and personal relationships, has sparked a wave of critical reactions on the forum. Users are debating the limits of generalization in the media and the impact of discourse on masculinity.

The key points of the controversy

  • Statements in the national press: Comedian Victoria Martín, director of the series *Se tiene que morir mucha gente* (Movistar +), has triggered a debate after remarks in *El Mundo* about envy and toxicity in social relationships.
  • Reaction to the generalizations: The thread questions the legitimacy of passing judgment on entire groups in the media, contrasting these views with the current proliferation of hate crime legislation.

What forum members think about the debate

Those denouncing the media double standard: A section of the forum argues that the remarks reflect a psychological projection bias. These users claim there is an asymmetry in public discourse, where men can be stigmatized under the "toxic" label without proportionate criticism in the media, calling the message an attention-seeking strategy devoid of real substance.​

Against them, those criticizing the quality of public debate: Another group of members focuses on skepticism about the relevance of the public figure in question. They argue that such statements are "pamphlets" designed to be absorbed by an uncritical audience, and prefer to dismiss the content by ridiculing both the form and substance of the author's arguments.​
