The crisis afflicting young men and boys in America

More details to follow on Barbara's very important topic idea. The crisis of young men and boys in America has been building for years. It is very real, as millions of especially less educated men have seen themselves falling farther and farther behind woman and, in their minds, minorities, all of whom get special treatment at their expense.

Of course, not all young men believe this narrative of loss and the culprits who caused this loss. Yet, falling behind is real for millions of young men and boys, and many see the govt and culture doing little to help them recover. Many have turned to the right wing for support. The manosphere and its macho patter has been a major succor for some of these young males. To the extent it feeds the MAGA beast, it is all our problem now - which it should have been all along!

More details will follow later, including some optional background readings. All revanchist social and political movements have a basis in reality. MAGA's wish for a time when men can be men again - confident, independent, and necessary to women - must be addressed, even if it cannot really be cured in the historically gauzy ways they some of them believe are practical and :natural.".
