Mark Robinson thread | Sues CNN for Naked Africa reporting

I’m getting very worried about the trends we’re seeing in Gen Z, especially the young men currently in their late teens and twenties. The Joe Rogans of the world are doing a number on them, and I’m not as confident as I was a couple of years ago that young people will continue to move us forward on issues like racial and gender equity.

It’s really bad. The toxic bro culture has been ramped up with legalized gambling too. The Bar stool/Macafee/Rogan combo has led to a ton of misogyny/homophobia and pro-Trump sentiment
 
If I’m advising Robinson, I’d tell him he should pivot and focus mainly on fighting against the stigmatization of being into extremely kinky sex acts. He might win over some hearts and minds.

The "red-pilling" of young men is a huge problem moving forward. Those graphs that show the sharply diverging political identities between male and female high schoolers are really concerning. Young men and women will barely be talking to each other in a decade because their attitudes, philosophies, and world views are so different. Peer pressure and social media algorithms are creating a douchebag pipeline the likes of which we've never seen before, and I don't really know how to stop it.

I'm not sure that this leaves him much of a career on the right-wing media or event circuit.

Right-wingers might put up with racism, misogyny, xenophobia, trying to overthrow the government, or paying a porn star for sex right after the birth of your child, but they ain't going to forgive a dude playing with action figures and enjoying transgender porn.

Good point

In retrospect, this coming out yesterday was brilliant. It didn't give enough time to have voters turn on him completely (for him to evaluate and drop out). But enough time for people to make statements of support or asks for him to leave. So yeah... It was really smart

Was wondering why they didn't sit on it for another day.

You are absolutely correct.
 
It's all about them finding someone to "follow" in a very online world post high school, when young men are out on their own. And whoever fills that void is the number 1 influencer.

When rumors started flying yesterday that CNN had uncovered some terrible comments he made online, my first thought was: How could it be any worse?

Well, it was worse:

I want to be careful how I say this because what’s happening with young men is NOT the fault of anything women have done and it’s not women’s responsibility to fix it, but I’m hoping this recent wave will recede a bit when these men realize women don’t really want to be with assholes. If you want a good relationship with a woman, children, etc., you can’t model your life on bro culture.

One of the reasons I was happy with Walz as VP pick is because he's the perfect kind of role model for young men in this regard - an embodiment of the type of male values that the MAGA movement has discarded and derided (honesty, compassion, grace, selflessness) in favor of the cartoonish, swaggering faux machismo that Trump himself embodies so well. But most of them are so far gone that they simply deride him as a "beta male" and "loser" and laughingly repost those incredibly creepy horse memes of which Don Jr. is so fond.

I think a major issue is that a lot of young guys have a catch-22 going on when it comes to women...

- They don't know how to interact with women, they get rejected, they look online for help
- The influencers they find like Andrew Tate & friends only make things worse for them by giving them bad advice
- They face further rejection because now they act like bro culture teaches
- They go further down the bro culture hole because it tells them it's not their fault
- They become even more someone that most women don't want to date
- They are driven even further into bro culture

I'm not sure how you fix it, especially now that so many young guys have gotten into bro culture and share it amongst themselves.
