  1. I mean whatever I propose would be considered as overreach but this is existential so I do think it should be done. I would probably start by addressing things that are pissing them off, stuff like online dating apps was a huge mistake, and should probably be banned, there is no bigger psychological deathtrap than having 9 men chase 1 woman on the app. You could very well point to this as the fall of civilization. Make dating a local only affair, this limits the drowning in the desert vs drowning in the ocean conundrum both genders face, by restricting to local, and social circles only, then social currency matters. Understand that it is the impressionable part that is the problem younger boys idolize older boys and the troubles are expressed down the line they hear about it and commiserate, even if a 13 year old is not on tinder they are getting the same vibe. After that ban social media for children, the porn fear was fake but the grifter recruiting fear was real, children can only be exposed to a Nintendo like social media environment, where only "good job" can be expressed and not links to Andrew Tate. Punish social media companies for profiting from hate, (and yes hate from both sides it needs to be fair) Give kids realistic purpose in life, right now they are expecting a dead job market, no chance to own a home and an endless life of misery. This is where economic leftism is vital. Trump offering dead end manufacturing jobs to these kids are packaged as a return to the 1950s GM jobs that could feed and house a nuclear family, the fact that Kamala can only offer Goldman and Sach's solutions is a poison pill.
  2. I mean you guys can keep doing the head in the sand routine and think it was just normal GOP propaganda, and I keep telling you it was not, the GOP has been targeting the youth for a while and failing but all of a sudden things like "kill all men" and you honestly don't expect to make headway? https://srhsoffleash.org/2171/opinion/kill-all-men-is-only-killing-feminism/ You guys have no idea what the bloodsport of the culture wars was, it was very sick, and I am sorry, I am glad all those voices got silenced more or less, they finally learned that violent irrationally emotional speech has consequences. We need discipline not idiocy, go scream at your pillow.
  3. Well that was more fun than baseball
  4. Yeah we are back to 2020, survive the dictatorship and hope we elect a competent leader that does not just decide to roll over, and have a normal presidency.
  5. I mean you kinda said so yourself he has to be good with women, well to be specific have the PR image of being that. Leo is the only one I can think of, he is an environmentalist that backed Harris, but lives a private life. Good luck with ever recruiting him to be vocal though, after the constant vilification from the feminist movement.
  6. Cringe https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/08/16/tim-walz-jd-vance-donald-trump-masculinity-childless-cat-lady-women-attacks-mona-charen I get the sentiment, but this is dumb. I like Tim but hoisting him as a male role model is unbelievably tone deaf.
  7. I mean I can try to paint a path and a picture, but no, nobody has scientific proof of anything. People still debate if the Franz Ferdinand assassination really started WWI, they are wrong but yeah I have no scientific proof. We should not be paralyzed by this though, there was a baseline 40% of Gen Z men were going MAGA, that was the expectation baked into the model, older people would die, younger people would be more progressive and we could see the light at the end of the tunnel. That calculus changed and while it might have not been enough to alter the 2024 election the repercussions are real and will be with us for the rest of our lives, the question is how to reverse course without looking like a bunch of out of touch "why hello fellow kids". Feminists positing Coach Tim Walz as a male role model was offensive and tone deaf. Hell you need someone like DiCaprio who is a lady's man, but guess what? feminists loathe Leo because he dates young women. We can't let the inmates run the asylum.
  8. Looping back on Al Franken because it is democratic party politics
  9. You are wrong, for the record it was actually 23% it was 38% college graduate hispanics so the article misinterpreted the polls. How can something that was heard by 23% of hispanics (and nearly universally rejected) be considered esoteric? you are wrong dude, 100% wrong. Hey guys lets keep using the term so toxic that is driving away hispanic democrats! galaxy brain move right there.
  10. I don't fault Harris for this, if anything I do give her credit for never falling into the trap of talking about the culture wars. But you guys need to stop pretending that elections are won or lost on election day. No, elections are decided years in advance, at least for democrats they are, the cult of Trump can rely on selective memory and forget everything on election day.
  11. Read the article dude Welp lets keep using the term! 38% of hispanics is not just "academics" and if 1/4 hispanic democrats are less likely to support a politician using it why the fuck do it? Don't get me wrong they are idiots, but our side is apparently dumber. It wasn't until these polls started to come out when the slur died, but it was because of lobbying of people like me calling them idiots for using it. I got a ton of bans from that.
  12. Prices already went up (see GPUs) and they are very very unlikely to come down, the damage is done, he can prevent future inflation however and that is where the ball is on his court (and I hope he bricks it)
  13. The funniest part is that the proceeded to elevate their game to the point they became juggernauts... by getting run ruled swept by Miss State, They scored 50, FIFTY RUNS on Mizzou. Pooooor aggie got 2 runs on them on the last two games. By the law of transitive property they are about to score -10 on their next game, I will watch their career with great intrerest.
  14. Head in sand https://www.kxan.com/news/latinx-dropped-from-lulac-official-usage-deemed-very-unliked-by-latinos/ Yup it was such a non plus that it had to have directives to stop using it, LatinX has mostly died in recent years after the pushback was impossible to ignore.
  15. Lol I have been called worse, if it makes you feel any better I despise them as well even back then when I was getting banned from progressive subreddits I knew I would gladly take a million humiliations over the GOP winning, but still, lessons need to be learned.
  16. It already has, see the mayor-elect of Omaha that actively campaigned on the GOP bathroom obsession. I just hope we learn our lessons going forward, we need discipline, we need to be smart, we are playing behind the eight ball because until we denazify that is just what reality is. Assuming we still have elections of course.
  17. I will meet you half-way, I will stop using it when it is important (aka elections) and use it when important (learning opportunities after losing) I did not say any of this shit in 2024, but had already reached similar conclusions.
  18. On this we disagree, and splitting hairs on this does nobody any good.
  19. Roma do you really want me to post the near infinite list of woke left wingers misbehaving? I am not kidding the list is probably in the millions to compare me with Limbaugh is disingenuous, you might have been sheltered on this forum but on the world wide web it was not just one or two incidents it is an avalanche of stupidity that spanned a decade. You can all stick your heads in the sand how it does not matter, and you are kinda right it does not today I agree with it but only because the woke movement is reeling and finally seeing the consequences of their actions catching up to them, all of the left wing crusaders (and there were millions) that stoked the fires have retired. But the damage is done, and to loop it back into the party propper one of the idiotic actions of the democrats was what they did to Al Franken, culling our own based on identity politics jockeying IS suicidal. Then we wonder why we lost to the biggest clown when we get rid of our most talented players. Fair enough
  20. No, because I was using the definition of woke circa 2011, before the GOP even had a shot at redefining it. Woke was invented in the 70s by the black community, pretty much stopped being used but came back in the 2010s, the 2010s definition is the one I am using and most people use. Republicans have tried to redefine it to mean all leftist politics but I do not use that definition.
  21. Yes they did, the overton for Gen Z was shifted hard those formative years. Also Michelle Obama was talking about Trump being an asshole it had nothing to do with identity politics.
  22. Actually there is an argument that the woke right does exist, the difference is they will not be punished electorally for it, while we are. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/02/woke-right/681716/ That does not mean we stop fighting for trans rights, just that it be done intelligently and not idiotically And for the record I do know of its etymology, I am talking about how woke is defined today however.
  23. Gamergate was a right wing originated movement, its name was coined by Adam Baldwin, and weaponized by Steve Bannon, and perpetuated initially by the grifters of today, that is how Candace Owens got her start, Ian Miles Cheong, and Cernovich as well. It would have been a footnote in history (instead of the dangerous avalanche that it is today) had the left behaved like mature adults and not like petulant children, grown adults arguing that bullying should be brought back to punish these kids, I was there it was a bloodsport.
  24. Woke is the aggressive use of identity politics to frame an issue/object/discussion. This is the single most brilliant definition of woke I have ever seen Or is SNL right-wing propaganda? STOP DOING STUPID SHIT!
  25. And the plan was for those old dinosaurs to die off, not to start generating new ones radicalized even harder than before. I literally met some dumbass first time voter that said he will finally get dates after Trump gets elected and gets rid of all the undocumented workers, how did he ever reach that stupid conclusion? the new talk radio that did not exist a decade ago.
