@darwinwoodka There's definitely a huge connection between male insecurity and the allure of gender notions that are all about male dominance.

@ShiitakeToast A point she makes is that the response of the boys in her school has been quiet and subtle, but also obvious to the girls who are watching what's going on.

@wdlindsy I saw the same sort of stuff when I was in high school and Reagan won. Went from peaceful coexistence to race based fights in a year.

@wdlindsy great article however trump only won because more than 60% of white women voted for him. White women handed him the victory!
-
@peaceforeveryone Yes. Though I'd say the choice of a majority of white women to vote for Trump isn't the only reason he won.

@QRSS_Test Economic elites have been adroit at pitting us against each other for years now, using race, gender, and other dividing lines to tear us apart.

@wdlindsy Sure, Blacks and Latinos have always been waiters and janitors in the country clubs.
Oooo, dream big!

@i_gvf Right up the street from me, a block away, some of the super-rich country club members in this area held a pre-wedding party in the beautiful gardens around a mansion a few years ago. All the food and drink was served by Black women in white bathing suits — and it goes without saying that all the guests were white.

@wdlindsy I feel such disgust at these miserable insecure followers who think they can become something great by turning #masculinity into a cult, and looking down on #women. Thereby these "men" sacrifice a large part of their humanity. John Stuart Mill had it right: "Woman is the female of the human species, and not another kind of animal." Any "man" who believes, or professes to believe, otherwise has dehumanized himself.
I'm also reminded of the saying about Bismarck: "He made Germany great by making the Germans small." I don't believe #Trump and #Vance can really make America great. But they're doing a hell of a job of making American #men small.
