Yeah, I think this sort of thing being normalized is the evidence of a social and psychological effort toward the dehumanization of men specifically, which is being effected and encouraged to some extent by certain groups. The irony is that the same group of political activists is also hypersensitive to the point of obsession toward any perceived shade cast toward women, much less trivializing the idea of actually killing them (i.e. specifically killing them because of what they are). Same thing for other "unacceptable" targets of this treatment as well, and this applies in example after example.
I think this is done by the kinds of people who think that language is a weapon to be used to gain personal benefits to them, rather than a means for communicating and ascertaining the truth. That's also why talking to these people seems to go nowhere. It doesn't go anywhere since they don't actually use language for anything except dishonest manipulation and self gain. Through these kinds of actions, they would like to normalize violence of one type against specific groups of people that they deem acceptable targets. I don't think "their" plan is going to work. But it's still abhorrent, not to mention hypocritical, and can be characterized as both psychotic and unhinged, bitter and passive-aggressively hateful. In short, the hypocrisy about tolerating and allowing to be published only this one kind of violence is only to add insult to injury. And if I carried around a book with a derogatory title and cover art that was deemed "inappropriate," people who saw me with it wouldn't really care at all whether or not it was actually a fiction book, so I don't see why that would apply here. Publishers who were thinking about whether or not to publish the book wouldn't care about the genre either, if the title and cover by itself conveyed something deemed politically incorrect. So there's just no logic to raising that point here, either. There are many double standards being employed for no good reason.
This is of course one more example in a relentless stream of similar examples in recent years of such bias (which always seems to be against men, and/or whites, and/or Christians, etc.) that you can find in mass media – and indeed art and literature – which is still under the sway of "Talmudic thought" today. It's really worth pointing this out at every juncture in which it is encountered in order to hopefully end this trend at some point.
