    The left: “We have absolutely no idea why young men are drifting to the right in droves. No clue. It must be that they are evil and want to preserve their male privilege! It couldn’t be our own actions and how we treat them, no way!”

      Some men will see one ragebait social media post and base their entire political worldview around it, then blame “the left” for anything that goes wrong in their lives.

        Some people will see any critique of the left online and immediately go into defense mode. Hope this helps but I’d doubt it.

          Mate it’s not a “critique of the left” lmao it’s a rant aimed at ragebait you fell for.

          The issue is people being terminally online and exposed to too much ragebait more than it is anything actually political. Although social media algorithms being financially incentivized to feed you as much ragebait as possible and manosphere grifters making a career out of it is a very political issue.

        #killallmen and other misandrist takes come from the left, that’s what the fuck it has to do with the left. They’re the ones propagating this bull shit, not the right.

          No one is propagating “this bullshit”. This is one idiot online (and possibly not even real)

          You just look everywhere and see yourself as oppressed.

          You’re not. People just don’t like assholes.

            Wtf? When have I ever said I feel “oppressed”?? Lol. But you don’t think people like that exist or something? Show me any content by the right that is as critical and hateful towards young men the way people on the left are.

            The sentiment in the pic is exactly what pushes young men (specifically white) over to the right. I can’t believe you think this is a controversial take or something. Maybe you just wanna shadowbox comments or something
