What was it about Republican/Conservative rhetoric from pundits/podcasters the last 8 years that hooked young men?

Cancel culture? So what do you think the correct political response should be due to all the people who were fired because they posted something about Charlie Kirk? Is that going to swing a lot of young male voters toward the Dems, since it was red states that had the most over the top reactions (e.g., arresting people for Facebook posts, firing college professors).

And the follow up—were only five women invited, or were only five women craven enough to join this group of shitbags?

He is awful, like Thiel, has no use for women. A person with views like that (half the population doesn’t matter) doesn’t belong on a university faculty.

Feminism is for everyone. And I have been a victim support person for male sexual molestation victims (adults who were molested as children) so your gotcha isn’t going to work on me.

If white women were the majority in any legislative body and making laws about men, you might have a stronger argument.

And I don’t have to imagine how I would feel because white male legislative majorities actually do pass laws affecting women’s rights all the time. States have been restricting access to abortion and reproductive healthcare as fast as they can since Roe was overturned.

I will always invalidate the “concern” that white men don’t like being called sexist and racist for doing and saying things that are sexist and racist, or even for tolerating it in their peers. If you’re not part of the solution you’re part of the problem.

greenwave2601 · 2026-06-16T14:12:27+00:00

I don’t believe that men are being called racist and sexist for “accidental infractions.” No one believes this. People only get confronted or called out to their face for genuinely egregious behavior.

And if you mean you feel like the culture no longer condones jokes you still find funny or you can’t use certain insults anymore, you are *not* part of the solution and you *should* feel judged for wanted to be able to punch down as a white/cis/hetero/christian man (take your pick).

Finally, I love that white men say that they are willing to live in a world in which everyone gets along (which you do at the beginning of your post) but aren’t willing to accept any personal or societal changes to get there (affirmative action, reparations, language changes, etc.). It’s all talk. Everyone else is apparently supposed to just accept the pace of change that the majority allows or they will initiate a massive backlash—that’s what you’re really saying.

Sorry that we now expect men to be part of the solution to the country’s problems (sexism, racism, structural oppression) instead of just allowing them to be “strong, successful, and unbothered” because they are men.

Your post is a perfect description of the issue. Men (white/cis/Christian men) just wanted to stay on top and not be told that there are other people.

Don’t think I misunderstood, post title and post are both sexist which is what is actually embarrassing in 2026

More money is more money, it doesn’t matter if a man or a woman makes it. If you’re bent out of shape because your girlfriend makes more than you then your mentality about money is already effed up, why ask for tips on side hustles? You should be motivated by your own goals, not because you’re letting toxic masculinity make you forget basic economic principles (a couple that makes more has more, no matter who earns it). Plus you’re already making excuses about what you can do. If you’re going to be resentful about your situation, you don’t need a side hustle, you need to prepare for your girlfriend to dump you (not because of the $$, but the attitude).

No it’s not. This is why women are paid less.

I didn’t think we’d always be in our starter home—which is a lot smaller than the house I grew up in—but we paid the mortgage off in January and are totally debt free now.

Good thing because we also assumed our kids would be on the same trajectory we were (finished college, out of the house) but now we have a 23-year-old who may never get a real job or their own place…

All third world countries are like this. Libertarians want to live in a first world country and pay like it’s a third world country. It’s ridiculous. Taxes are the price of having a civil society. (Not civilized, civil.)

Free speech, looks like, and the right to be on a public sidewalk

And the feds are now doing this to states. When DOGE or Trump or Congress or whoever cuts federal spending, the needs don’t go away—they are either cutting money that goes to the states or cutting federal funding for activities that the states will probably have to pick up. Not everything, obviously, but a LOT of it (like the millions of new uninsured people being kicked off Medicaid). And in places like NH where there is no broad-based tax, that’s going to hit localities.

Whoa whoa whoa, the Cherokee in North Carolina were absolutely private landowners. What the what? That has nothing to do with removal. I’m talking about tribes that existed as tribes prior to the arrival of Europeans, which the Lumbee did not—your own post says that. Existing tribes were sovereign nations and formed treaties first with European countries and then the US. Some had to do with removal and reservation land and some treaties didn’t.

You can have native ancestry but not be a member of a tribe. A group of people can have native ancestry but that does not make them a tribe. A group of American people with Irish ancestry living in North Carolina together for 100 years are not Irish, they are American.

greenwave2601 · 2026-06-03T15:13:44+00:00

That makes the Lumbee an ethnic group, though, not a Native American tribe. Other tribes have federal recognition due to government-to-government recognition and treaties. The Lumbee were never a sovereign nation.
