The cure for male loneliness is feminism. Seriously.
https://makemenemotionalagain.substack.com/p/the-cure-for-male-loneliness-is-feminismCurious your thoughts! I wrote about how the answer to male loneliness is caring, and how caring is really, really hard. Especially for those of us who’ve been socialized as men. We’ve been told that anything outside of going to work or optimizing ourselves by lifting weights, sitting in ice baths, and pounding creatine isn’t worth much. That caring for others isn’t a “productive” or “efficient” use of our time. That someone else will always end up doing it. That we’re not supposed to do it because women are naturally, biologically designed for it and we’re not (which is untrue). That if we do it, we’re less valuable, like a woman, less of a man. But showing up and caring is both good for other people and us. We have to do more of it.

Thank you. As a black dude, this sounds absolutely wild.
There's absolutely no way I would align myself with people having to translate to me "ethical bigotry", "see, when we say that men are trash, it's not that they are literally trash you know and if you have a problem with that, it means that you're trash".
I've seen enough MAGA chuds translating bigotry with the same tactics.
They do (feminists) what they have to do, I won't be in their way but I'm sure as hell won't be their pawn.
The audacity seriously lmao.
Wait, I'm not even lonely, I have a lot of friends, so... How that happened without being a feminist?
I'm sick of everyone preying on young men with their BS (red pill nonsense, MAGA nonsense, white feminism).
