I thought this article was interesting, in that I am immediately suspicious of the motives of some of people quoted. The conclusion runs counter to what I want to be true, and I’m curious what other people make of it.
Also men: Do you actually feel attacked? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen someone criticised for like being strong and capable, or a good carpenter, or a protective dad or whatever. Is this a real thing? or just something that is used as cover like the traditional values vs violent misogyny terminology.
P.S. Thinking there are hordes of ravenous cancellers waiting in the wings is extremely funny to me. Not exactly beating the allegations that listening to Jo Rogan damages your perception of reality.
The video discusses the growing political divide, particularly focusing on how men, especially young men, are shifting towards the right politically.
The narrator critiques the Democratic Party’s efforts to appeal to this demographic, highlighting various missteps and tone-deaf attempts at outreach. Here are the key points:
Gender Divide: The video starts by noting the increasing toxicity in gender discourse, with examples of anti-male sentiments from media and social media.
Political Shift: There’s a discussion on how young men are moving towards the Republican Party, while young women are leaning more towards the Democrats. This shift is particularly notable in recent election data.
Democratic Party’s Struggles: The narrator criticizes the Democratic Party’s last-minute efforts to win over young male voters, such as creating spaces for white men and using Tim Walz as a “secret weapon” to appeal to male voters. These efforts are seen as superficial and ineffective.
Social Media Reactions: The video includes reactions from social media, highlighting the divisive and often dismissive attitudes towards men’s concerns. Some tweets suggest that men need to “be better” or are inherently problematic.
Critique of Pandering: The narrator mocks the Democratic Party’s attempts to pander to men, such as ads featuring Tim Walz doing stereotypically masculine activities. These efforts are seen as insincere and condescending.
Bernie Sanders: The video mentions Bernie Sanders as an example of a candidate who successfully spoke to the demographic the Democrats are now struggling to reach. His focus on working-class issues is highlighted as naturally attractive to men.
Call for Change: The narrator expresses frustration with the Democratic Party’s messaging and calls for a more inclusive and effective approach to win back young men. The video ends with a plea for the party to evaluate what they’re doing wrong and make changes for the betterment of society.
Overall, the video is a critique of the Democratic Party’s strategies and a call for more genuine and effective outreach to young male voters.
This is the influence we get from America flooding in
Basically left wing progressives are inherently anti-male and anti-white male and social media helps amplify and push these beliefs far and wide because left wing progressives and women are supplying them with easy content

Combine that with a lot of guys not doing great in life and then they get to see plenty of women being given a hand (admittedly this was a 30 second search, I don’t want to even imagine how far and wide these programs and monetary advantages that are being given to women extend to):

So when women already make up a majority of board positions and they still get given more advantages regardless:
And yeah, you’re going to breed resentment when men apply and get denied and then look up why
Anyway I gotta stop procrastinating on me studies so not going to put much effort in after this post
Nice one for answering naeva’s question. The part with women’s scholarships is something that does hurt a lot of blokes as they have to work harder for the same opportunity.
You’re describing the liberal wing of the U.S. Democratic Party. A “left-wing progressive” would be someone like Bernie Sanders.
