What Does KAM 2020 Mean?
KAM 2020 is Kill All Men trend that actually started on Twitter but eventually found its route to TikTok. The girls on the TikTok spammed on the guy’s TikTok videos with the hashtag #KAM2020.
[Trigger Warning: Suicide]
It first started as a joke but it has become a way to attack men for no reason. There has been a circulating story about how a kid attempted suicide because of the KAM hashtag and comments that were spammed on his post on Tiktok. The kid thought he was part of it and attempted it.
Why tf is #KAM a thing. Y’all are just spreading hate and made an 11 year old attempt suicide. Be better

Some people don’t believe in that story since there are no sources about it. The only credibility of the news is ongoing tweets and comments. Things like this have been done on the past, to deflect certain issues raised by women, which is a valid reason to think so from their point to view too.
ppl are going around on tiktok saying that this 11 yr old kid attempted suicide bc girls spammed him with ‘kam’ with NO SOURCE and like. i highkey don’t believe it. obv if its real thats DEPLORABLE and you should NEVER spam a kid for any reason but.. if a child attempts it’s for

But if it is real then maybe the trend has been gone too far and people need to retrospect on the trend and issue as a whole.
Kill All Men (KAM) Meaning Explained
KAM trend started as a hyperbole created by women to fight against the misogynist and sexist males on the platform who harass women on an everyday basis for the way they dress, the way they act.
Men attack women or people of the LGBT+ community solely for existing, so the phrase KAM started in a way to fight that. It is a joke that is used to offends people who are misogynist and sexist. If they get offended by it then they must have been doing something wrong.
This trend started as a joke and to fight the harassment that women suffer from on the internet on an everyday basis. Here is one of the examples that joke on #KAM.

Even if it started as a joke, it has created a lot of buzz in the community about if it is right or not. Ethically speaking it may not be the best way to get back to the misogynistic and sexist male but looking at all the harassment that women get isn’t anywhere ethical either.
There are men okay with this trend and are onboard with but there are some who feel misrepresented by the trend. One of the Twitter user (@kjevans78) talked about his struggle with emotional, mental, physical and sexual abuse as a straight male and how this trend makes it seems like that whatever happened to him was justifiable and okay, just cause of the bad things another male has done.
At the end of the day, it is all fun and games until it costs someone’s life. It the trend is doing more harm than good to people then it has to end but if it is offending misogynist and sexist people on the internet, it is doing exactly what it is supposed to do.
