As far as I’m concerned, every “western” country is morally discredited for the indefinite future given their complicity in Karabakh. Never want to hear about “western” or “European” values again.

Does anyone know what Kwanzaa was EVERYWHERE in the late 90s/early 00s in school curricula? When I was a kid it was presented as the third winter holiday after Christmas and Hanukkah. Like, when I was very young I thought that Kwanzaa was the religion that black people followed.

My experience wrt the "male loneliness epidemic" is that so many of my male peers seem to see no purpose in socializing with anyone but a romantic partner. When I have gotten coworkers or acquaintances to hang out there's no interest in forming closer friendships.

"Young men are turning right" because we used to have social structures that forced women into relationships with losers/sociopaths/both and now we don't and they want that back. You tell me what the solution is here. Capitulate?.

Of course, that's their prerogative, but it really feels like, from my perspective, that so much of the "male loneliness epidemic" is self-imposed. I'm a naturally very extroverted person who tries to go out of the way to include people and more often than not there's no interest.

If you want to be friends, even close friends, with someone well into your adult hood you literally can. There's nothing stopping you, but you have to be open to it and most people aren't. It's kind of as simple as that. Most of my closest friends I met in my late 20s.

I want to make this very clear:. Young men have nothing. Literally, we have nothing, no future prospects, most don't have skills, most don't have partners, all for reasons outside of our control. All we had was our hobbies, and we couldn't even be left alone to have that

A huge swath of American society is effectively gender anxiety therapy for heterosexual men. Everywhere we have to participate in these idiotic fantasies so that accountants and salesmen can have their beliefs that they are Epically Masculine on the Inside affirmed and validated.
