#misogyny

The revolution is DEI or we never get out of this nightmare.
“That so many online are celebrating the idea that Trump’s agenda will destroy the financial lives of women speaks to how deeply misogynistic the ideology that unites Trump and his supporters can be.”

Vox · The strange link between Trump’s tariffs and incel ideologyBy Constance Grady

"As Starmer and many British politicians are pointing their fingers at Tate and the Manosphere and the ubiquitous presence of smart phones, it’s worth recalling that we spent a decade blaming Mortal Kombat for youth violence, up to and including Congressional hearings.

After all, kids are playing games where you get to brutally murder someone. That has to have some kind of impact on them, right? It turns out that there’s almost no evidence that it made the nation’s youth more violent.

Personally, I’m less interested in the rantings of losers like Tate and more interested in what might lead a young man to look to him in the first place. I have no interest in watching a misogynist brag about his antisocial behavior. But if I lacked a job, a family, strong male and female role models in my life, maybe I would turn to a gangster like him to find fulfilment.

I doubt that we can censor our way out of this problem because alienated men will always have someone to serve as an unhealthy inspiration, even if it’s just the drunk at the bar or the screwup they work with at Costco.

And ultimately, oversimplifying this issue may lead us to blame people for things that are far out of their control."

The American Saga · “Adolescence” Is a Great TV Crime Drama. But the Problems Facing Young Men Are More Nuanced.By Zaid Jilani

Some right-wing women are trying to claim that the right has a misogyny problem. It doesn’t.

It’s a core belief that the party is heavily set in. That’s not a ‘problem’ that is a value. Your party VALUES misogyny. That’s the reason no one has ever tried to fix it. You can’t alter the values of a party without altering the party and its members as a whole.

"An unspeakably dismal choice is being made before our eyes and without our consent: machines over humans, inanimate over animate, profits over all else. With stunning speed, the big tech megalomaniacs have quietly rolled back their net-zero pledges and lined up by Trump’s side, hellbent on sacrificing this world’s real and precious resources and creativity at the altar of a vampiric, virtual realm. This is the last great heist, and they are getting ready to ride out the storms they themselves are summoning – and they will try to defame and destroy anyone who gets in their way."—Naomi Klein & Astra Taylor

The Guardian · The rise of end times fascismBy Naomi Klein

"An entire generation of men has been conditioned to embrace the worst aspects of an alleged 'strongman.' Trump is the flagbearer, and he has minions all across social media and right-wing news outlets. They understand that politics runs downstream from culture and can Trojan horse their authoritarian politics through sports, gambling, video games, and comedy."

Counter to what people bball believe, #misogyny and #misandry aren't necessarily based in #hatred, but can be mired in #prejudice and #ignorance.

One such idea is that "#BoysWillBeBoys" basically becomes an excuse, a piece of apologia, that women can attribute abuse amongst men, and that the only reason you're sad is because you lost.

To the most basic of #misandrists, boys and men aren't more than dogs, lesser even, in that we are there for their amusement and material needs.

@dianshuo @randahl I genuinely think they do - #misogyny and institutionalised #racism let them to this moment in time - there is no resistance to the Arancia Duce or any meaningful change,until the majority of society there accepts that these 2 things are a problem.Of course they need to work on these 2 things.There will be no real elections there anyway, so there is no point in even stating or debating if #USA is a #democracy.It is not.It is as much democratic as #Russia or #Belarus.
