Men's Rights Activists. They push the idea that feminists are oppressing men and the cause of "misandry".

Circuitous thinking, not unlike the Evangelicals who equate that any action to stop them from bullying groups they don't like (LGBT's, single moms, women seeking abortions) as persecuting them.

In other words, they mistake self-pity for persecution.
