Show transcriptScreenshot of a Tumblr post by nongunktional:

when i first heard about the male loneliness epidemic i was like oh yeah close camaraderie and bonding between men is often discouraged in favor of competition or, if not discouraged, at least filtered through a lens of individualism that precludes deep connections. and then i learned what people meant by it (men arent getting laid) to which i say skill issue

to all the men out there not getting laid: try less hard to get laid and try more hard to be an enjoyable and relaxing presence

We have several threads about this. Reddit several subs that crawl with shit like this.

Do you think it's completely baseless? I mean there's people like Andrew tate with millions of viewers who subscribe to this type of behavior. Do you think that the rebuttal outweighs the originating source?

I just don't even see why you would lump yourself in with the accused? Unless you are someone following someone like tate, why do you think they are talking about you?

My issue is with how its talked about and all the generalization of men. And I think the dialog around it feeds these boys to the likes of tate. These kids grow up hearing that man vs bear shit, being told their problems don't matter and that they are the root cause of all the world's problems. We basically are telling them that is where they belong.

Are you not doing the same thing with leftist?

I say this in the gentlest possible way and with the sincere hope that everyone can end up where they best fit: go back to reddit and stop shitting in the pool here.

Nah, Lemmy is great. Especially if you enjoy dunking on incels.

ah, okay, so you weren't genuinely asking, you were being smug and baiting with gotchas. noted.

Lol, no it's an actual question. I don't really see any gotcha-like statements, just explaining my point of view.

Btw accusations aren't really a rebuttal. Good attempt though!
