sees himself as a defender of classical western virtues

-reads the “Relationships” section of his Wikipedia page-

Interesting. How does one develop this kind of delusion…

Probably playing off of this part of the article:

"[…] I discarded the argument that scholars haven’t reached a conclusion on whether the Gaza genocide is really taking place”, Marshall wrote in his decision.

It’s because the average person cannot conceptualize an existential threat. Hell, even I can’t really conceive of how badly climate change is gonna fuck up my life, but I listen to the people smarter than me telling me it will.

It’s not a high horse, because I voted for Kamala Harris. But as someone who actually goes here, I knew this was going to be the exact outcome, because this high minded “vote for Trump to save democracy” is what got us in this mess in the first place. It happened in exactly like this 2016, and the Dem’s didn’t learn.

Sure, we can blame the electorate, I’m all for it. But saying that it’s SOLELY the electorate’s fault when the DNC has been trotting out milquetoast candidates one after the other is so disingenuous. Americans keep saying they don’t want two right wing candidates, but no one is listening.

Again, you are dismissing 45% of your brothers. People like you, people who probably think the same negative things as you about themselves.

Unironically young men need positive solidarity from each other. You are not biologically designed to be fascist. You’re lonely and self-hating by social engineering. And the more you believe that social engineering, the more the toxic men win.

45% of Gen Z men still voted Harris, there’s tonnes of you that aren’t alt-right.

Instead of dropping dead, it’s time you guys started reclaiming what it means to be a “man”. It’s not like shitty women don’t exist, but most women band together in times of need/stress. Men need to start doing that too.

Surely comments like this will help alienated Gen Z males back into the fold.

Surely.

My friend, do not speak this into existence 😭

I’m not American

I…then why are you telling Americans that we’re wrong for thinking the DNC ran a shit campaign?? Like, you’re right, we’re in for a FUCKED time starting January 2025, but did you really expect people to turn out on election night out of an existential threat? Does that happen where you live?

Harris didn’t lose because everyone voted for Trump, Harris lost because the Dem’s voter base felt so unheard by their own candidate regarding their issues that they stayed home, exactly as Bernie Sanders said. The numbers and voter stats are all there for people to read. Harris AND Trump got overall less votes than 2020, but Harris lost the Blue Wall from 2020. Hillary at least won the popular vote, Harris and the 2024 DNC don’t even have that.

It doesn’t matter where you are in the world, voter turnout correlates to progressives getting in power. The conservatives always have a core base of ~20-30% of voters that will always show up (no really, look up historical voter numbers in your own country), and the DNC have really tried appealing to these people in the US instead of bringing out their own base!

It’s a flawed strategy because it’s shown over and over again that these core voters will always vote through their conservative party lines.

Joe Biden should see if squatters rights extend to the White House.

You’re in the headline, btw.

It’s insane to me how Democrats keep appealing to the right, when their historically greatest turnout has been galvanizing their base like with Obama.

And yes, a war criminal’s endorsement is more important to me than a pop star’s. One of them actually works in policy.

Bro BFFR Dems had Dick and Liz Cheney endorsing her, exactly what part of their base is a war criminal and his nepo baby supposed to appeal to?

Edit to add: this is who they sent to stump for Harris in Michigan and other swing states btw

Yep, Trump’s popularity went down with white voters (albeit only 2-4 points depending on male or female) but gained ground in Latino and “other unidentified” minorities. He also actually lost older voters too.

But I think the biggest surprise for me is that Trump gained more of the new voters than Harris. And while I don’t have a gender breakdown from that, I wonder if a lot of those were males.

No jokes 😡

(no but seriously I don’t think anyone in the “Hitler Youth” post is in a joking mood :,) )

They shouldn’t have to.

Your list is the issues that men are actually facing, but what OP posted is what the clout chasing “alpha influencers” tout as “men’s actual problems”.

For everyone’s sake, we need to start reclaiming men’s spaces from these Andrew Taint-wannabe’s, and towards people like you. They don’t care about anything but their bank accounts.

No worries, I love discussing numbers, and elections always give some great statistical insight, no matter where in the world it is.

My solace today is being able to look at the numbers and intellectualize some of the outcomes. Otherwise I’d just be depressed all day :')

Ok, I see your point. You’re not wrong here. But I’m always surprised at how averse US politicians are to anything perceived as left wing populism, while they tolerate (or even eat up) the right wing version.

Maybe it’s a remnant of McCarthyism.

Thank you, this might be a sign that I do need to up my dosage 😭

Also, I agree with you.

No you’re fair to do so, here’s the demographic breakdowns and differences between 2020 and 2024 from NBC exit polls.

The particular thing to note is that Trump support jumped from 36% to 42% in the 18-29 demographic, while the other age groups remained steady, this is what I think the tweet is going off of.
