“The middle road will not be feminine…”
It will include aspects of it though. It has been defining masculinity in opposition to femininity for all these years which has allowed a toxic aspect to develop within male dominated groups over time.
They have been for the last 20 years.
Which is why we also have a bunch of men who are trying to hold on to jr. high mindsets about what they were told adulthood is like, rather than allowing themselves to mature beyond the gaming communities they found support in.
Remember, Steve Bannon already abused gaming communities for political gain.
The real question, is how hard would it be to set up networks of healthier mindsets, when games are doing their best to remove private servers from the minds of others, when those private servers are needed for securing the audience and preventing poor faith individuals from taking control
The left tries to get rid of hierarchies, the right relies on them.
You sort of need a hierarchy to have authoritarianism.
And, if I recall, they use compound words, similar to German.
Often, found family for finding that assistance.
Another thing that we as men don’t want to admit (generalized statement,) are that traumas we suffer can often come from a familial source, and that distrust can poison our attempts to reach out to others.
Worse, those traumas can give improper perceptions about how a family works, and give frustrations due to finding out that your previously assumed normal life was in reality quite damaging for viewpoints when confronting how all the easy lessons we were taught were dead, decayed, and buried by 1970, if not earlier, and we’re working on tertiary information from unreliable sources that are grasping to the past to maintain control in their own lives.
Maybe, we as men, not so much society start pushing that, instead of waiting for others to do it for us.
We need to counter Lad Culture with telling them that talking about their feelings isn’t a pussy action. That we don’t have to wait for a wife to use as a therapist and surrogate mother.
When you see men pushing the toxic policies of “suck it up” on other guys with no cares to the background information, we need to call out the toxicity.
Things won’t get better so long as we enable the worst
You keep on making excuses, but you keep ignoring that there is only one political party that’s in a tizzy about gas stoves and stating that rolling coal is a form of free speech.
You can make all the excuses you want… but your chosen political views* show that you hate the reputation that they have spent the last 22 years reinforcing.
*a hit dog hollars
Your refusal to admit reality must be so endearing among your friends.
So long as Conservatives politicians rely on militant ignorance and a desire to shit on the less fortunate, and Conservative voters buy up their dogwhistles and hatred for minorities with a spoon, they can deal with people calling it out as they see it.
Oh, and the Conservatives that say “But I just voted for the tax cuts” really don’t look to good saying “I think that militant bigotry isn’t a dealbreaker for me saving money.”

What do you describe as “anti-men”
Do you mean “doesn’t subscribe to 50s definition of a man being an angry, grown up boy?”
