Latest / Honey Badger Radio / Japan Today Turns Men’s Pain Into A Moral Panic
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you
- 0:02Speaker 1: may be, and welcome to Honey Badger Radio. My name
- 0:05Speaker 1: is Brian. I'm here with Allison and this is maintaining
- 0:08Speaker 1: frame Japan today turns men's pain into a moral panic,
- 0:11Speaker 1: where we're going to be looking at an article from
- 0:14Speaker 1: Japan today, which, by the way, the article itself is
- 0:16Speaker 1: not really about Japan. It isn't. I guess it's more
- 0:22Speaker 1: of like that part of the world. Because we have
- 0:26Speaker 1: another article in the that is warning against the Manisphere
- 0:31Speaker 1: and how it's dangerous and causing real world harm. And
- 0:34Speaker 1: this one comes out of Australia, and so we're gonna
- 0:37Speaker 1: be looking at it, reacting to it and talking about it.
- 0:40Speaker 2: Oh, I thought we're doing in the Japan one. What
- 0:44Speaker 2: or is Australia? Is Japan the Japan article out of Australia.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Well, I don't really know. I've never heard of Japan
- 0:52Speaker 1: today until I came across this article.
- 0:54Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm wondering. I'm wondering if Japan today is
- 0:58Speaker 2: like the Western perspective on Japan, or maybe we're trying
- 1:01Speaker 2: to export our moral panics over to.
- 1:05Speaker 1: We that's necessary. Japan has similar they have similar problems.
- 1:11Speaker 1: There are women everywhere, therefore they're going to have problems everywhere. Yep,
- 1:20Speaker 1: Well we're gonna we're not gonna talk about Japan itself.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Is that just so happens that the name of the
- 1:25Speaker 1: website is Japan today? But in a way you could
- 1:29Speaker 1: say that the the sort of like well, I don't know,
- 1:32Speaker 1: like the Anglo sphere in Australia, New Zealand are having
- 1:39Speaker 1: some effect on the sort of Pacific region of Japan, Korea,
- 1:45Speaker 1: et cetera. But I think that, Yeah, I mean, that's
- 1:48Speaker 1: we're getting in a specultive territory. We're going to be
- 1:50Speaker 1: talking about this because strangely enough, in every part of
- 1:56Speaker 1: the West, which includes down Under, they're all worried about
- 2:00Speaker 1: the same problems, which is the Manisphere, and they're worried
- 2:03Speaker 1: about how it's going to have a big negative effect
- 2:06Speaker 1: on people, specifically women, and what that harm is. So yeah,
- 2:11Speaker 1: so that's what we're doing today, Alison, you want to
- 2:14Speaker 1: do the things?
- 2:15Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but I was just gonna say, we could
- 2:17Speaker 2: do a series on this. There's so many of these
- 2:19Speaker 2: cropping up like daisies or was it dandelions, just everywhere.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Yeah, almost It's interesting too that like, no matter what
- 2:27Speaker 1: part of the world it is, no matter how far
- 2:30Speaker 1: away the cultures of say Australia are, from Canada, or
- 2:35Speaker 1: from the United States or the United Kingdom, or Scotland
- 2:38Speaker 1: or Ireland or Wales or Europe, they all have the
- 2:41Speaker 1: same problems when it comes to the Manisphere. They're all worried. Yeah,
- 2:46Speaker 1: and they all have at the same.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Time, exactly the same critiques, exactly the same talking points.
- 2:53Speaker 2: And it's almost like they're using the Manisphere to dismiss
- 2:57Speaker 2: something deeper. All right, So if at any point throughout
- 3:01Speaker 2: the show you want to send a super chow, you
- 3:04Speaker 2: can do so it Feedbadger dot com slash just the tip.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Please do that because I I know that there was
- 3:11Speaker 2: something wrong. Yeah, no, actually I will tell you what
- 3:14Speaker 2: happened yesterday. It has been it has been an.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Audition looked at me. Sorry, Yeah, it's.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Been an odyssey. Okay. So essentially what happened is Discord
- 3:29Speaker 2: deprecated one of its plugin integrations with where it's plugin
- 3:33Speaker 2: integration with zepp here like it's it was the only
- 3:37Speaker 2: one or up and or it deprecated that version of it.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Now there's a new version, so it didn't tell me.
- 3:46Speaker 2: Strangely enough, Discord tells me all kinds of stuff. It
- 3:49Speaker 2: gives me all kinds of notifications for stuff. But as
- 3:52Speaker 2: a quote unquote developer, I didn't get a notification that
- 3:54Speaker 2: they were no longer going to support that version of
- 3:57Speaker 2: the plug in, so its appeared it no longer worked.
- 4:02Speaker 2: It didn't disappear, and today I have been spending the
- 4:07Speaker 2: whole day trying to fix that by and you would
- 4:10Speaker 2: think it would be easy, just update the plug and no,
- 4:13Speaker 2: it's it's more difficult than that because there's all kinds
- 4:15Speaker 2: of steps. But then I got sucked into using Zapier's
- 4:19Speaker 2: AI assistant, and yeah, that was that was That was
- 4:24Speaker 2: probably a mistake, although on the other hand it did
- 4:28Speaker 2: by trying to teach it how to do what I
- 4:31Speaker 2: needed it to do, I refreshed my memory on how
- 4:35Speaker 2: to use zap here because the last time I used
- 4:37Speaker 2: it was two and a half years ago. So I
- 4:40Speaker 2: fixed it. I think, please send in your super chows
- 4:42Speaker 2: so we can check that feed the Badger dot com
- 4:45Speaker 2: slash just the tip, big big thank you to anybody
- 4:47Speaker 2: who does that, so that I know that I've actually
- 4:50Speaker 2: fixed it. I would be very, very grateful and if
- 4:54Speaker 2: you want to support the show, feed the Badger dot
- 4:56Speaker 2: com slash support and yeah, let's let's just start, all right.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Should I read the ones that didn't go through from yesterday?
- 5:04Speaker 2: Yeah? No, let's get let's get a little into the
- 5:06Speaker 2: article this week, all.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Right, all right, let's get into the article. All right.
- 5:09Speaker 1: So uh yeah, so this article is from Japan today,
- 5:14Speaker 1: from violence to sexism. The Manisphere is doing real world
- 5:18Speaker 1: harm by very you know Japanese Stephanie Westcotton and Steven Roberts.
- 5:25Speaker 1: I can I can tell their clan will honor them
- 5:28Speaker 1: with this work. So this is an opinion piece, all right, Melbourne.
- 5:34Speaker 1: There's a lot of debate around the extent to which
- 5:37Speaker 1: the Manisphere is playing out in young people's lives and relationships.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Some suggest claims about its malevolence are misplaced. Others think
- 5:46Speaker 1: just because something happens on the Internet doesn't mean it
- 5:48Speaker 1: affects lives online. Okay, this is in spite of a
- 5:52Speaker 1: significant body of international evidence demonstrating otherwise. Do you want
- 5:57Speaker 1: to say anything to that right away?
- 6:01Speaker 2: Yes, lay us lay some more evidence, some more ideologically
- 6:06Speaker 2: motivated advocacy evidence on us that this is a problem
- 6:11Speaker 2: that it's it's not Actually, it's the manosphere that's the problem,
- 6:14Speaker 2: not the underlying pains and vulnerabilities that society refuses to
- 6:19Speaker 2: address that men have, you know, the problems that society
- 6:23Speaker 2: is creating for men. No, it's not that, it's it's
- 6:26Speaker 2: the manosphere. And the irony is that like ninety percent
- 6:31Speaker 2: of the manosphere is essentially just telling men, yeah, it's
- 6:35Speaker 2: a problem, but what can you do? Just man up? Right?
- 6:39Speaker 2: And I mean, and that's mostly what the red pill says,
- 6:44Speaker 2: the more conservative commentator some of them. Anyway, you know,
- 6:47Speaker 2: there's not a lot that just says we need to
- 6:50Speaker 2: deal with men's issues because men are human beings, or
- 6:53Speaker 2: even we need to deal with men's issues because that's
- 6:55Speaker 2: what's wrong with the world today period. There's not a
- 6:58Speaker 2: lot of people saying that. Mostly just diees stuff, everything sucks,
- 7:02Speaker 2: man up, you know that ultimately that's what they say.
- 7:05Speaker 2: So I don't even know why they have such a
- 7:07Speaker 2: big problem with the manisphere because it is more like
- 7:10Speaker 2: a drain trap for missonry. It's basically just like, yeah,
- 7:14Speaker 2: missionry exists, what you're gonna do about it?
- 7:16Speaker 1: Man up? You know.
- 7:18Speaker 2: It's so it's not even Ray like it's not even
- 7:20Speaker 2: like a revolutionary kind of thought. It's just sort of
- 7:23Speaker 2: more of the same. So I don't know, of course,
- 7:27Speaker 2: I think the real reason why they've constructed this gigantic
- 7:31Speaker 2: villain is to deflect from the problems that they're creating
- 7:35Speaker 2: for men and from the people who are actually saying, hey,
- 7:38Speaker 2: fix those problems. No, no, shut up. I don't want
- 7:42Speaker 2: to hear about Andrew Tait. I don't want to hear
- 7:43Speaker 2: about Donald Trump. Okay, fix the problems. Fix them because
- 7:48Speaker 2: they're a problem for everyone, and they're becoming a bigger
- 7:50Speaker 2: and bigger problem. And the longer we don't fix them,
- 7:53Speaker 2: the more of a problem they become. So fix them,
- 7:56Speaker 2: deal with them, make this right. I think they want
- 8:00Speaker 2: to hear that, so they're promote. In fact, I think
- 8:03Speaker 2: they promote the controlled opposition that they want to hear
- 8:08Speaker 2: that they can dismiss, but also doesn't really say, hey, yeah,
- 8:17Speaker 2: the society, these social institutions are creating this problem. It's not.
- 8:23Speaker 2: What they're doing is they're putting more and more weight
- 8:26Speaker 2: on men, and then when men falter, they say that
- 8:31Speaker 2: the men are weaker. That just proves how weak you are.
- 8:35Speaker 2: And it's such a disheartening, demoralizing thing, and they take
- 8:40Speaker 2: no responsibility for it. Anyway, I went on a bit
- 8:44Speaker 2: of a rant already. I just want to Yeah, rants
- 8:49Speaker 2: happen here.
- 8:50Speaker 1: I was just going to say what I what I
- 8:52Speaker 1: think is going on here is they're coordinating. There's a
- 8:56Speaker 1: coordination of narratives in these in the all of these countries,
- 8:59Speaker 1: all these different governments, and they're different varying academic nerve centers.
- 9:05Speaker 1: To basically say, Okay, here's what we got to do. Now.
- 9:07Speaker 1: What the goal of it is is a whole other
- 9:10Speaker 1: thing that I think we have talked about. But the
- 9:14Speaker 1: idea that men don't have problems, but men are the
- 9:19Speaker 1: problem is like the thing that we're getting again, how
- 9:24Speaker 1: is it also the case? How is it possible that
- 9:27Speaker 1: this is the same story we're getting in England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Europe.
- 9:33Speaker 1: So that includes Spain, France, Germany, all the Nordic countries,
- 9:37Speaker 1: all of the Mediterranean countries, like you know, like I
- 9:42Speaker 1: mentioned Spain and Italy, the United States of America, Canada, Australia,
- 9:48Speaker 1: and New Zealand all have the same narratives, all the
- 9:51Speaker 1: same things, and they're all worried about the same shit,
- 9:54Speaker 1: and then they say, we have a body of international
- 9:58Speaker 1: evidence that demonstrates the you know, these these uh these
- 10:02Speaker 1: problems that this is actually really nefarious. What does that mean?
- 10:07Speaker 1: That means that we've all colluded together and we've all
- 10:09Speaker 1: investigated ourselves and found that men are the problem. So
- 10:13Speaker 1: like they're they're they're what they're doing now is they're
- 10:16Speaker 1: circling the wagons. This is what I think. And they're
- 10:18Speaker 1: trying to craft like the ultimate global meta narrative against men,
- 10:23Speaker 1: and they're using like international evidence, which is basically you know,
- 10:27Speaker 1: feminists in in Australia calling feminists in the United States
- 10:31Speaker 1: and saying, hey, you know what, what should we do?
- 10:33Speaker 1: The men are starting to get uppity over here. The
- 10:35Speaker 1: men are starting to like care about their country and
- 10:38Speaker 1: their people and their and their future and there you know,
- 10:41Speaker 1: whether or not they're gonna be able to get a job,
- 10:43Speaker 1: whether or not they're gonna be able to have some children,
- 10:45Speaker 1: whether or not their country is gonna look the same,
- 10:48Speaker 1: like like be a place where they want them because
- 10:49Speaker 1: they grow up, How do we stop them? And they're
- 10:51Speaker 1: gonna be like just invoke manosphere. It's everywhere guys now,
- 10:55Speaker 1: of course, it's been this way forever. Like the countries
- 10:58Speaker 1: that don't care about that, they're just going to continue to,
- 11:03Speaker 1: you know, like grow. But we're the only ones, or
- 11:07Speaker 1: at least like by and large, that are engaging in
- 11:11Speaker 1: this attack on men and allowing this to happen. And
- 11:14Speaker 1: I think they're doing this on purpose, and they're working
- 11:17Speaker 1: together to do it. That's what I think anyway.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's it's almost like they are they are
- 11:27Speaker 2: recognizing that men are probably who we're going to solve
- 11:32Speaker 2: these problems that we're facing, but they don't want them
- 11:35Speaker 2: to actually. Like, the thing is that when you have
- 11:38Speaker 2: systemic problems like the ones we're facing, usually what happens
- 11:41Speaker 2: is a pretty seismic institutional shift in other words, maybe
- 11:46Speaker 2: even a complete like sweeping the board and rebuilding stuff.
- 11:51Speaker 2: And I think these institutions are terrified of that, so
- 11:55Speaker 2: they want to keep men on the plantation, and they
- 11:57Speaker 2: want to keep shaming men for all the problems that
- 12:01Speaker 2: they are creating to see if they can continue to
- 12:03Speaker 2: get men to fix them. So they create a problem.
- 12:07Speaker 2: It's like this argument I had on Twitter when this
- 12:09Speaker 2: woman thought I was a man and she said, you
- 12:12Speaker 2: aren't strong enough to save me from my weakness, and like,
- 12:16Speaker 2: how did you make how did you make your weakness
- 12:21Speaker 2: a condemnation of my so called identity as a man?
- 12:25Speaker 2: Like I just I just looked at that. I was
- 12:27Speaker 2: just astounded. And that's the same kind of dynamic they
- 12:30Speaker 2: are making the problems that they create. They're making men
- 12:34Speaker 2: responsible for the problems that they create. Mm hmm, particularly
- 12:39Speaker 2: when it's problems that they create that specifically impact men.
- 12:43Speaker 2: They're making them responsible for those problems, and they're shaming
- 12:46Speaker 2: men for having an opinion on being victims of the
- 12:50Speaker 2: things that they're doing. All right, let's just let's start.
- 12:53Speaker 2: Let's start getting into it because okay, yeah, I feel
- 12:57Speaker 2: like we've ranted enough.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Not fine. In this post digital world, there is little
- 13:01Speaker 1: or no delineation between what's viewed and experienced online and
- 13:06Speaker 1: what's lived in the real world. This means we have
- 13:09Speaker 1: to consider the potential harms of the manisphere not as
- 13:12Speaker 1: remote or abstract, but as very real and not to
- 13:15Speaker 1: be underestimated or dismissed.
- 13:18Speaker 2: Hmmm.
- 13:20Speaker 1: So you see there, I haven't read this article, and
- 13:24Speaker 1: I didn't know, Like I'm I wasn't really sure if
- 13:27Speaker 1: it was going to be like a good article. I
- 13:29Speaker 1: just noticed that, you know, it was more more of
- 13:32Speaker 1: the same thing, like they're doing what are they doing
- 13:35Speaker 1: in the UK? Now? They're going to be teaching boys
- 13:38Speaker 1: about respecting women. They literally teach boys how to respect
- 13:41Speaker 1: women in the UK now. And there was another country
- 13:44Speaker 1: that was doing it too that I oh, no, no,
- 13:48Speaker 1: it was the Green Party. The Green Party in the
- 13:50Speaker 1: UK has like you know, there's like an offense that
- 13:54Speaker 1: you can commit when you I want to say, like
- 13:58Speaker 1: correct a woman, Like if a woman said something and
- 14:02Speaker 1: you say, actually, you can like get in trouble with
- 14:07Speaker 1: the party. And I was like, God, you guys are
- 14:09Speaker 1: so cooked, bro.
- 14:10Speaker 2: And you know that's going to spread. It's going to
- 14:12Speaker 2: spread because this is our solution to everything, is to
- 14:16Speaker 2: silence men, blame men, and then tie their hands. That's it.
- 14:21Speaker 2: And the thing is that what we have constructed, through
- 14:24Speaker 2: this entire method of this entire lie that we've told
- 14:27Speaker 2: ourselves about women being oppressed, right, what we have constructed
- 14:31Speaker 2: is a situation that puts the least capable and the
- 14:36Speaker 2: least responsible into positions of power, just just like a
- 14:41Speaker 2: like an escalator, into positions of power, positions of influence.
- 14:46Speaker 2: And then we're inheriting a disaster. Plus all of this
- 14:50Speaker 2: virtue signaling, the only thing it empowers is narcissists and sociopaths.
- 14:55Speaker 2: So basically, we are a world that produces narcissism and
- 15:00Speaker 2: so essentially prioritizes narcissism and sociopathy for positions of power
- 15:05Speaker 2: and incompetence. And the reason why I say that is,
- 15:09Speaker 2: you know, women aren't aren't necessarily the problem I know
- 15:13Speaker 2: Migtao today is probably, you know, sharpening his acts as
- 15:17Speaker 2: I say that, if we had put today oh or
- 15:22Speaker 2: MiG Til, he's in he MiG Tailed, He's in the comments.
- 15:25Speaker 2: He was upset because we said that women would have
- 15:28Speaker 2: to vote to get rid of their vote and he
- 15:31Speaker 2: and he was saying, oh, there's all other kinds of ways,
- 15:34Speaker 2: like the Muslim takeover, Like we haven't talked about that.
- 15:36Speaker 2: I haven't explicitly said it's not going to be men
- 15:39Speaker 2: that take away women's vote. It's going to be women
- 15:42Speaker 2: mismanaging the society that gave them their vote and crashing
- 15:46Speaker 2: and burning it, like that's what's going to happen. That
- 15:49Speaker 2: the men are probably going to be fighting in the
- 15:52Speaker 2: trenches to try to retain women's rights. Meanwhile, women are
- 15:55Speaker 2: sucking up to the invaders anyway. The point is that
- 15:59Speaker 2: it's not necessary women. It's women who are accountable to
- 16:02Speaker 2: nothing in nobody, right, And we're putting people who are
- 16:05Speaker 2: accountable to nothing and nobody, not even the people who
- 16:08Speaker 2: built the things that they're taking over, not even they're
- 16:11Speaker 2: not even conveying. There's no conveying of institutional knowledge. There's
- 16:18Speaker 2: no conveying of the kind of knowledge that you require
- 16:21Speaker 2: to run something like if you, if you, if you
- 16:24Speaker 2: go into a job, right, you have things you need
- 16:27Speaker 2: to learn, and we can't even there isn't even that
- 16:31Speaker 2: conveyance of information from one generation to the next. Because
- 16:35Speaker 2: of exactly what you just said, Brian, the Green parties like, oh,
- 16:38Speaker 2: if you explain something to a woman, you could get
- 16:41Speaker 2: in trouble. Well, that's been sort of the informal rule,
- 16:43Speaker 2: if not actual rule, for a lot of workplaces for
- 16:46Speaker 2: a long time. So men built all of this and
- 16:49Speaker 2: they can't even convey the institutional knowledge necessary to run
- 16:53Speaker 2: it to women or their man'splainers. Right. So women are
- 16:56Speaker 2: just going into these jobs and listening to nobody and
- 17:02Speaker 2: for and they're not even accountable for the things that
- 17:05Speaker 2: they're doing. If you replace well, I mean, I don't
- 17:10Speaker 2: know what the critical mass is, but if you start
- 17:13Speaker 2: replacing people who know how to do their job with
- 17:15Speaker 2: people who are self righteously offended, if you tell them
- 17:19Speaker 2: how to do their job and have no sense apparently
- 17:23Speaker 2: think that accountability is patriarchy, how long do you think
- 17:26Speaker 2: things are going to function. And that's what we're seeing
- 17:29Speaker 2: across the board media, academia, publishing houses, animation, politics, it's
- 17:41Speaker 2: across the board. Law, it's across the board. And it's
- 17:45Speaker 2: again it's not because necessarily women. I mean, if the
- 17:49Speaker 2: if the women, like the peasant women from like the
- 17:51Speaker 2: seventeen hundreds are the ones being put in, probably wouldn't
- 17:54Speaker 2: be as bad because they still had a sense of
- 17:56Speaker 2: accountability of their families and their community. But women who
- 18:00Speaker 2: have been trained by feminism to regard being taught how
- 18:04Speaker 2: to do something as an offense against their womanhood and
- 18:09Speaker 2: being held accountable for the results as an offense against
- 18:14Speaker 2: uh good, you know what is good? And holy? Well,
- 18:19Speaker 2: where where these are? This is? This is bad, okay,
- 18:23Speaker 2: all right, and nobody wants to point it out. We
- 18:25Speaker 2: just want to blame men more for the results, Okay, all.
- 18:30Speaker 1: Right, I got a super child from Richard Bierre.
- 18:32Speaker 2: Well we should probably read the other ones too, eh
- 18:35Speaker 2: me as well.
- 18:36Speaker 1: So we got a couple yesterday that came through, so
- 18:38Speaker 1: the context might be lost. But so Richard Bierre sent
- 18:43Speaker 1: a super child yesterday. I'm assuming that didn't go through.
- 18:46Speaker 1: And he says, send a message to the Badgers. Oh no,
- 18:49Speaker 1: that's you wrote that. I'm getting a flashback to a
- 18:52Speaker 1: sort of a PSA from the Reagan years where a
- 18:56Speaker 1: group of people were gathered around a table. Each person
- 18:58Speaker 1: was representing some aspect of population. The military officer takes
- 19:02Speaker 1: the majority of the two pies for dessert and leaves
- 19:04Speaker 1: everyone else to divide a single slice. Another one of
- 19:07Speaker 1: these was the grandfather and granddaughter walking together and she
- 19:11Speaker 1: asks about trees and the grandfather is telling her about
- 19:13Speaker 1: the beforetime when trees were abundant. At the end, the
- 19:17Speaker 1: camera zooms out and you see them both wearing gas masks. Again.
- 19:21Speaker 1: I don't know what this. I think they were. The
- 19:23Speaker 1: context is lost, but I'm reading it because you know
- 19:25Speaker 1: we got them yesterday, So thank you, Richard. Then Meredith
- 19:28Speaker 1: g gave us one yesterday. HBr talked three eighty three.
- 19:33Speaker 1: The problem with claiming that the Founding fathers were stupid
- 19:36Speaker 1: is that it ignores the fact that there are mountains
- 19:38Speaker 1: of writing the shows. They were intelligent and very thoughtful
- 19:41Speaker 1: in how the craft died the nation. That is why
- 19:44Speaker 1: you can have an entire book called Ideological Origins of
- 19:46Speaker 1: the American Revolution. Not an easy read, by the way.
- 19:51Speaker 1: All right, thank you Meredith for that. And then I
- 19:53Speaker 1: got I guess there were like several five dollars things.
- 19:58Speaker 2: That's just my tasks.
- 20:02Speaker 1: Metal never mind me shiny metal butt all right. Then
- 20:06Speaker 1: then Richard Bierre sent us five dollars just now and said,
- 20:10Speaker 1: unrelated to this topic. But I heard the other day
- 20:12Speaker 1: that Candice Owns has been called up by Alex Jones
- 20:15Speaker 1: because her theories are too crazy for even him to
- 20:17Speaker 1: entertain and explore. Thank you, thank you for that. Okay,
- 20:22Speaker 1: so now we've done all the super chows, all right.
- 20:27Speaker 1: The gendered content spiral broadly. The manisphere is centered on
- 20:31Speaker 1: anti feminist, misogynistic, and anti gender equity ideas and beliefs. Okay,
- 20:38Speaker 1: So I don't have a problem with any of that.
- 20:43Speaker 1: So okay, First of all, when they say the manisphere,
- 20:48Speaker 1: whether you like it or not, it includes us. It
- 20:50Speaker 1: does because anyone who's pushing back on the feminist narrative,
- 20:56Speaker 1: which is essentially a story about the dynamic which men
- 21:00Speaker 1: and women, which is based on a lie. Anyone who
- 21:03Speaker 1: pushes back on that is lumped in with the manisphere.
- 21:06Speaker 1: So when they because I saw the other day, I
- 21:11Speaker 1: got comments from Albert who's really really mad because we
- 21:15Speaker 1: don't hate Pearl and Andrew Tate enough for his taste,
- 21:19Speaker 1: and he's like, you guys got to condemn them, you know,
- 21:21Speaker 1: almost like if we do that, then the mainstream media
- 21:24Speaker 1: will let us continue to do our work and not
- 21:27Speaker 1: call us.
- 21:30Speaker 2: Like you do. Realize how many names that we were
- 21:32Speaker 2: expected to freaking to hate in order to prove something
- 21:37Speaker 2: to the people who don't who want to silence us
- 21:40Speaker 2: in the first place. I'm not turn.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Us to condemn people ever since we started.
- 21:47Speaker 2: I am not turning Honey Badgery Radio into the anti
- 21:52Speaker 2: hate platform. I don't then, Okay, when feminists start saying, oh, really,
- 22:00Speaker 2: we didn't intend to create Andrew Tape, I know we're
- 22:02Speaker 2: responsible for him, but we're sorry and we want to
- 22:05Speaker 2: distance ourselves from the things that we did that created
- 22:08Speaker 2: this man. When it feminists do that, maybe I'll consider
- 22:13Speaker 2: taking responsibility for something that I actually warned would happen
- 22:17Speaker 2: years ago. Because this Andrew tape basically was birthed. It
- 22:23Speaker 2: came emerged like Athena, from the forehead of Zeus, from
- 22:29Speaker 2: the Corpus, the collection of feminist academic thought on masculinity.
- 22:37Speaker 2: They left one passingly pro social way to be a man,
- 22:42Speaker 2: and that was to please women with your body. Playboy,
- 22:47Speaker 2: There you go. You got what you asked for, feminists.
- 22:51Speaker 2: And when feminists disavow this and say, hey, maybe we
- 22:55Speaker 2: shouldn't have stripped manhood of all of its other positive
- 22:58Speaker 2: qualities and leave only one, maybe we should can reconsidered
- 23:02Speaker 2: that before we taught all of this right, when they
- 23:07Speaker 2: take responsibility for Andrew Tate, well, I won't even take
- 23:12Speaker 2: responsibility then, because I had nothing.
- 23:13Speaker 1: To do with it. No, you knew anything wrong and
- 23:16Speaker 1: do anything You're right, I mean, like even then, Like
- 23:19Speaker 1: I'm just saying, it's I'm pointing out that I'm just
- 23:25Speaker 1: reminding people when they say the manisphere or the red
- 23:28Speaker 1: pill or whatever, they do not exclude us. They do
- 23:33Speaker 1: not exclude the reasonable people who have been doing this
- 23:37Speaker 1: every day for thirteen years. They they you know that
- 23:42Speaker 1: are trying to be like, you know, rational and advocate
- 23:46Speaker 1: from a place of like, here are some things that
- 23:48Speaker 1: need addressing. It doesn't matter. In fact, we're probably worse
- 23:53Speaker 1: for them than the people that they put out in front,
- 23:56Speaker 1: because what we propose is something that's actually like, you know,
- 24:00Speaker 1: first of all, it's doable, it's it's appealing, and it
- 24:06Speaker 1: will actually like have definite positive effects and it comes from,
- 24:10Speaker 1: i think any way, a place of humility. So like
- 24:15Speaker 1: that's not useful, that the optics wouldn't be good, So
- 24:18Speaker 1: instead they go after somebody that's convenient for them.
- 24:20Speaker 2: They don't. They go after Andrew, They'll go after anybody.
- 24:25Speaker 1: They just use them as.
- 24:27Speaker 2: The but they're platforming him.
- 24:29Speaker 1: He goes everywhere.
- 24:30Speaker 2: Well he did. I'm pretty sure they're auditioning for the
- 24:33Speaker 2: next one. Probably Nick Fuentes.
- 24:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, Nick Fuentes is part of the manisphere, Alison.
- 24:38Speaker 2: Yeah. But they they essentially every five years they get
- 24:41Speaker 2: a new one, right.
- 24:42Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and again whatever reason.
- 24:44Speaker 2: These faces of the Manisphere get stale after about five years,
- 24:48Speaker 2: so they've just manufactured a new one and they give
- 24:50Speaker 2: them a platform, and everybody has to be like, oh,
- 24:52Speaker 2: don't be like that. Guy.
- 24:55Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. And that's and that's all it is.
- 24:57Speaker 1: It's all it's all a way to discredit yea you're
- 25:02Speaker 1: talking about Yeah.
- 25:04Speaker 2: And what am I going to lose by saying us
- 25:07Speaker 2: this not my clowns, not my monkeys, not my circus,
- 25:13Speaker 2: simple as all right, it's it's not I am in.
- 25:17Speaker 2: I am agnostic on the Andrew Tate question. All right,
- 25:21Speaker 2: moving on.
- 25:22Speaker 1: All right, Well anyway, I'm just saying when they say manisphere,
- 25:24Speaker 1: they mean us too. So broadly they're anti feminist, misogynistic,
- 25:28Speaker 1: and anti gender equity. No, I want to I also
- 25:31Speaker 1: want to talk about this a little bit. So they
- 25:34Speaker 1: look at the what they're doing with the words here
- 25:37Speaker 1: they equate anti feminist, misogynistic, and anti gender equity. Okay,
- 25:43Speaker 1: And so that they're saying, if you're one of these things,
- 25:46Speaker 1: are all of these things. It's the way that they
- 25:47Speaker 1: put it out there, right, So they're they're like, because guys,
- 25:52Speaker 1: like feminism is just it's just the good thing to believe,
- 25:55Speaker 1: Like don't you believe in the good things, or you're
- 25:57Speaker 1: not a good person that believes good things? It's feminist
- 26:00Speaker 1: them is when good things, So don't you like that
- 26:02Speaker 1: are you anti the good things, then you must be
- 26:04Speaker 1: for the bad things, like this is the kind of
- 26:07Speaker 1: childlike behavior, the childlike the theories behind this. Okay, So
- 26:13Speaker 1: and then they go misogynistic, which of course is you know,
- 26:16Speaker 1: just the mainstream bludgeon. It's the bread and butter combo.
- 26:21Speaker 1: And then anti gender equity.
- 26:23Speaker 2: Because they don't want young men listening to people like us. Yeah,
- 26:27Speaker 2: and they don't. They so don't want us, want it
- 26:30Speaker 2: that they don't even mention us. I remember a while
- 26:34Speaker 2: back they would, and then I think they realized, hmmm,
- 26:37Speaker 2: it makes much sense. You better better not to start
- 26:41Speaker 2: allowing these people in the in the public eye. A
- 26:44Speaker 2: while back I did a whole bunch of interviews and
- 26:47Speaker 2: Karen did even more, and I think we made too
- 26:51Speaker 2: much sense, guys. That was the problem.
- 26:56Speaker 1: You know.
- 26:56Speaker 2: I probably should have just become incoherent and then started
- 27:00Speaker 2: ranting about some other random crap and and they probably
- 27:04Speaker 2: would probably would have getten much more attention. Right, Just
- 27:07Speaker 2: just find another political thing to deal with, you know.
- 27:10Speaker 2: This is this is what's important, not actually recognizing men's
- 27:14Speaker 2: issues and men's vulnerabilities and dealing with them. Right, if
- 27:17Speaker 2: we rely on men so much and we do. Maybe
- 27:20Speaker 2: we should help them out, Maybe we should make sure
- 27:22Speaker 2: they have the things they need to be productive. What
- 27:26Speaker 2: a radical thought. Huh No, that's not the message they
- 27:29Speaker 2: want to hear. They want to hear a message of
- 27:32Speaker 2: men's issues are not our problem. We don't have to
- 27:35Speaker 2: know why. Because they don't make money. They don't make
- 27:38Speaker 2: that's a simple, honest to god truth. They don't make money.
- 27:42Speaker 2: They're not a good grift and they don't. They don't
- 27:47Speaker 2: give you clout, and they and for the for the
- 27:50Speaker 2: narcissists and the sociopaths who are busily consolidating all of
- 27:54Speaker 2: their power and money. They don't give good excuses to
- 27:58Speaker 2: subjugate other people like they don't. They don't, they don't.
- 28:01Speaker 2: They don't provide good virtue signaling so that they can
- 28:05Speaker 2: smash and grab while you're you're you're admiring their halo. Right,
- 28:10Speaker 2: it's just it's just not it's not a good enough
- 28:12Speaker 2: lie because it isn't one. It's the truth. And that's
- 28:16Speaker 2: what they're really afraid of. They're afraid of the truth
- 28:18Speaker 2: exposing their entire, the entire edifice of bullshit that they
- 28:23Speaker 2: have constructed. Right that that's what they're scared of right
- 28:28Speaker 2: and all of this is just it is just an
- 28:32Speaker 2: ideology protecting itself. It's just that religion calling out the heretics,
- 28:37Speaker 2: you know, like when when religion goes really crazy, like
- 28:40Speaker 2: the Spanish Inquisition. Real funny about the Spanish Inquisition. I
- 28:44Speaker 2: don't know if people notives know this. There was a
- 28:47Speaker 2: huge profit motive because they would accuse someone of heresy
- 28:51Speaker 2: and then they take its money. There was a huge
- 28:54Speaker 2: profit profit motive motive to the Spanish Inquisition. And yeah,
- 29:01Speaker 2: they were essentially and in many cases it had absolutely
- 29:04Speaker 2: nothing to do with faith or whether or not you
- 29:07Speaker 2: were appropriately religious, or even if you were engaged in
- 29:10Speaker 2: any kind of heresy. It was because you were wealthy
- 29:13Speaker 2: and you got on the wrong side of the wrong people,
- 29:17Speaker 2: and then they would just steal your steal your wealth
- 29:20Speaker 2: and put you in So we're basically in a Spanish
- 29:23Speaker 2: Inquisition with fewer thumbscrews. That's exactly what these people do.
- 29:27Speaker 2: They're a smash and grab organization, and women's issues provide
- 29:32Speaker 2: a lovely veil of virtue and they turn people's brains off.
- 29:36Speaker 2: It's astounding. You can turn a person into a drooling
- 29:39Speaker 2: moron by simply saying well, men are or sorry, women
- 29:42Speaker 2: are hurting somewhere, and then they lose all cognitive function.
- 29:48Speaker 2: They turn into a zombie. And then you're like, yo,
- 29:51Speaker 2: give me money, listen to me, do what I say,
- 29:55Speaker 2: and then the women who are hurting, which I made up,
- 29:58Speaker 2: will stop hurting and people fall for it. It's like,
- 30:03Speaker 2: you know, if you have older relatives and you sort
- 30:07Speaker 2: of like a little scared because they aren't quite on
- 30:12Speaker 2: the ball when Nigerian prince sends them an email you
- 30:16Speaker 2: know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, and you're like, no,
- 30:22Speaker 2: that's that is a con This is the entire human race.
- 30:26Speaker 2: The entire human race is like a your great aunt
- 30:33Speaker 2: with dementia being targeted by an entire army of Nigerian princes.
- 30:38Speaker 2: And the Nigerian princes are feminism and we're just being
- 30:43Speaker 2: targeted by an entire army of con artists, and we
- 30:48Speaker 2: just buy into it because it turns our brains off.
- 30:51Speaker 2: As soon as women get harmed, our brains turn off,
- 30:54Speaker 2: our wallets open, and we do whatever they say, like
- 30:57Speaker 2: drooling morons. Okay, I'm done.
- 31:01Speaker 1: All right. Uh So anyway, let me see here. Broadly,
- 31:08Speaker 1: the men sphere centered on anti okay content can initially
- 31:11Speaker 1: appear harmless. It presents information and insights on health, fitness,
- 31:15Speaker 1: and financial and career success, but these are generally founded
- 31:19Speaker 1: on rigid, gendered ideas, extreme and isolating pursuits of self optimization,
- 31:24Speaker 1: and unhealthy ideas about relationships with girls and women.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Because we because it recognizes a gender dynamic and heterosexuality. Basically,
- 31:34Speaker 2: I see that they just completely gloss over men's issues.
- 31:38Speaker 2: You know, I think we're actually like a couple of
- 31:39Speaker 2: generations behind are in the past. Now men are fighting
- 31:45Speaker 2: just to have be able to desire women and just
- 31:48Speaker 2: to be able to identify as men, you know, you know,
- 31:51Speaker 2: set aside like shared parenting and actual recognition for male
- 31:55Speaker 2: victims of domestic violence and sections. Though now men are
- 32:00Speaker 2: at just identifying as we exist. You exist. No, that's
- 32:05Speaker 2: not all out Yeah, okay.
- 32:11Speaker 1: Okay, I think that's again. I think that's on purpose,
- 32:14Speaker 1: Like you can't even get your you can't begin to
- 32:16Speaker 1: talk about the issues because you're still telling me that
- 32:20Speaker 1: like manhood isn't even real. There's no such thing as
- 32:23Speaker 1: a man, but there is such a thing as a woman.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Because they're threatened by the men, So you have to.
- 32:29Speaker 2: Be careful there, Brian. There's no such thing as a
- 32:31Speaker 2: man when it comes to any kind of vulnerability, but
- 32:33Speaker 2: we do need a scapegoat, so men do exist. Oh
- 32:36Speaker 2: that's true, Yeah, exactly, all right, it makes sense.
- 32:40Speaker 1: New research has identified a shift in the manosphere towards
- 32:43Speaker 1: monetization and entrepreneurial entrepreneurialism to scientific wellness and alignment with
- 32:49Speaker 1: extremist ideologies. There's your contest stuff.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Oh god, you know what this is. Now. They're going
- 32:56Speaker 2: after making a living.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, entrepreneurial right up there with pseudo scientific wellness
- 33:06Speaker 1: whatever that even means, well.
- 33:08Speaker 2: They have. They they're going after natural stuff.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Like you know, oh like people who are like excluding
- 33:16Speaker 1: seed oils yeah, and the as and taking supplements. Yeah.
- 33:23Speaker 2: Like, honestly, this is this is really strange. I'm gonna
- 33:26Speaker 2: put it out there. The only place I see white
- 33:29Speaker 2: couples or white families and posters anymore are natural supplement
- 33:34Speaker 2: and wellness like stores. I don't know if you've noticed that,
- 33:38Speaker 2: but yeah, but anyway, so they're they're going after they're
- 33:43Speaker 2: even going after the homeopathy. They're going after any kind
- 33:46Speaker 2: of supplements because they don't they don't they want you
- 33:49Speaker 2: to be sick, you know, and.
- 33:52Speaker 1: The science Allison, Yeah.
- 33:54Speaker 2: Being healthy is patriarchal because it's like you're holding people
- 33:58Speaker 2: to a standard of wellness. How dare right? Yeah, So
- 34:02Speaker 2: they're they're they're lumping this in and it's because they
- 34:04Speaker 2: want to go after that. They don't want people to
- 34:08Speaker 2: have access to natural medicine. They want everybody to be
- 34:12Speaker 2: cured with a vaccine and surgery and made like, at
- 34:18Speaker 2: least in Canada, uh, surgery you can't actually get. You're
- 34:22Speaker 2: on like a five year waiting list and made. So
- 34:25Speaker 2: basically we're down to vaccines and and uh and euthanasia.
- 34:32Speaker 2: Those are gonna be our Those are gonna be our
- 34:33Speaker 2: options for health in the future. That's what they want
- 34:36Speaker 2: to bring it down to.
- 34:37Speaker 1: And if you're if you're not, if you're against that,
- 34:39Speaker 1: you're into pseudoscientific wellness.
- 34:42Speaker 2: You're a manosphered. It's even worse. Welcome, Welcome, you want
- 34:51Speaker 2: to actually take vitamin D in the winter, you want
- 34:54Speaker 2: to have your little white panel. Welcome to the manosphere.
- 34:58Speaker 2: You want to you want to get you don't want
- 34:59Speaker 2: to get fit. Welcome to the manosphere. I hope you
- 35:03Speaker 2: enjoy your stay, you know, like we could show you around.
- 35:06Speaker 2: We've been here for a while, Jesus.
- 35:09Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, all right. And then of course extremist ideologies,
- 35:15Speaker 1: which I don't know if they're gonna go get into
- 35:17Speaker 1: at all. They don't have to. They said the word extremists,
- 35:21Speaker 1: so that should that should scare them, okay. Users may
- 35:25Speaker 1: encounter content documenting extensive morning routines beginning at four am.
- 35:31Speaker 1: These videos can involve multiple wellness related rituals, recommendations for
- 35:35Speaker 1: preserving testosterone, and diatribes on mental natural roles as providers
- 35:39Speaker 1: and families.
- 35:41Speaker 2: Oh, they're probably talking about like Bjorn, you remember, like
- 35:44Speaker 2: the Viking guy.
- 35:47Speaker 1: I don't think he talked about like tesosphone levels and stuff.
- 35:51Speaker 2: They're smearing everything together.
- 35:53Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. But you know again, it's like
- 35:56Speaker 1: there are guys, like there's a whole branch of life,
- 36:00Speaker 1: like you know, these kind of fitness and wellness guys online.
- 36:04Speaker 1: But there's also a lot of women on Like there's
- 36:07Speaker 1: plenty of that. Like you know, I've never seen a
- 36:09Speaker 1: dude by a healing crystal. But and but nobody has
- 36:13Speaker 1: a problem with that, Like and I don't, I don't care,
- 36:15Speaker 1: like whatever, No.
- 36:17Speaker 2: Nor are they saying the femosphere is promoting horrible gender
- 36:20Speaker 2: roles and violence.
- 36:21Speaker 1: No, no, no, they are the they are the femisphere.
- 36:26Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but yeah, like there it's basically anything that
- 36:31Speaker 1: is trying that men are doing on their own, that's what.
- 36:34Speaker 1: It just sounds like anything that men are involved in
- 36:37Speaker 1: that that isn't like approved by these people is the manisphere.
- 36:41Speaker 2: Now.
- 36:41Speaker 1: So like if you're like, oh, yeah, I'm cutting carbs, well,
- 36:44Speaker 1: guess what, buddy, your Yeah, well, I mean it's the
- 36:50Speaker 1: very Hey, I'm gonna go get my t levels checked.
- 36:53Speaker 1: Oh it sounds like MANI Spere talk to me, buddy,
- 36:56Speaker 1: They're gonna have to give you in the Ministry of
- 37:02Speaker 1: not the Manisphere.
- 37:03Speaker 2: Yeah, the Ministry of not the penis people. Yeah, it's
- 37:09Speaker 2: always you watch this for thirteen years. They just go
- 37:13Speaker 2: after everything, every place that men are, even the existence
- 37:19Speaker 2: of men, They go after every bit of it, even
- 37:23Speaker 2: men having an identity as a provider. They can't they
- 37:26Speaker 2: can't stand that men should have no identity, they should
- 37:30Speaker 2: have nothing positive to strive for, They should live in
- 37:33Speaker 2: an existential acid death for the rest of their lives. God.
- 37:38Speaker 2: And then they turn around and say, hey, everybody else
- 37:40Speaker 2: is so mean. Yep, bullies.
- 37:46Speaker 1: All right, sorry, all right, so new research has identified
- 37:54Speaker 1: as shift. Now I read that part. Users may encounter
- 37:57Speaker 1: content documenting extensive morning routineans already read that one too. Sorry.
- 38:01Speaker 1: The menisphere adjacent content generated by trad wives and stay
- 38:05Speaker 1: at home girlfriends glamorize women. Yeah, now they're going after
- 38:10Speaker 1: the women. Uh and realistically unrealistically curated.
- 38:15Speaker 2: Okay, what the hell is sex in the city, Like
- 38:19Speaker 2: an unrealistically current curated life? You need all of the
- 38:23Speaker 2: all of the stuff on single women in cities and
- 38:27Speaker 2: all that.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Like going to find themselves and yeah, you're going to
- 38:30Speaker 1: find themselves.
- 38:31Speaker 2: And the absolute lack of any kind of consequences that
- 38:35Speaker 2: you know, some men can't prevent them from having. You know,
- 38:39Speaker 2: that's that's not curated. Okay, all right, I'm done.
- 38:44Speaker 1: Yeah, unrealistically curated life. A woman performs a caring role
- 38:50Speaker 1: in the home, issuing feminist ideas and advocating for women's
- 38:53Speaker 1: return to the domestic sphere. It's often connected to white
- 38:57Speaker 1: supremacy and far right conservatives.
- 39:00Speaker 2: Of course, gosh, everything is manisphere. In fact, this article
- 39:07Speaker 2: is part of the manisphere. In ten years, every.
- 39:11Speaker 1: It's gonna be in maybe one year. If there's a
- 39:14Speaker 1: game in here that like could be considered against men.
- 39:19Speaker 2: It talks about men, like that's something that exists. Yeah,
- 39:24Speaker 2: when all that exists is the patriarchy and the penis
- 39:31Speaker 2: people who are bamboozled by the patriarchy. But they can
- 39:37Speaker 2: never not be bamboozled unless they have mental chips implanted
- 39:43Speaker 2: that basically recite Andrew Dwarkin in their brains twenty four
- 39:47Speaker 2: to seven.
- 39:48Speaker 3: Mm hmm, okay, grief, all right, all right, all right,
- 39:56Speaker 3: so we're going after the yeah, the women and call
- 40:00Speaker 3: and get white supremacy, even if it's a black woman
- 40:02Speaker 3: that wants to be tried whatever.
- 40:04Speaker 1: There's evidence boys can find Manosphere content helpful and positive,
- 40:08Speaker 1: so they gotta Okay, so there is some good here,
- 40:11Speaker 1: but now I gotta like twist it. Do some seek
- 40:15Speaker 1: validation and belonging in these spaces. This makes the need
- 40:17Speaker 1: for them to engage with it critically even more prescient
- 40:23Speaker 1: real world harm.
- 40:24Speaker 2: Okay, No, I gotta get in there. You critically critically.
- 40:28Speaker 2: You want young men to engage with content that's being
- 40:32Speaker 2: presented to them critically, not your content, though you're absolutely correct,
- 40:38Speaker 2: even though there is no non ideological body of science
- 40:43Speaker 2: that has actually proven feminists premacies correct. We are operating
- 40:48Speaker 2: under the assumption that men oppress women, and there is
- 40:51Speaker 2: no legitimate proof that they do so. So you want
- 40:55Speaker 2: these young men to grow up with this attitude towards
- 41:00Speaker 2: themselves and not have any critical thought about it. In fact,
- 41:03Speaker 2: you probably are saying they should be. Their critical thought
- 41:06Speaker 2: shoud be applied to the things I'm saying. In other words,
- 41:09Speaker 2: they should reject them on the face as wrong. Why
- 41:15Speaker 2: why should we Why should we continue to accept this ideology?
- 41:21Speaker 2: Why why should any of us continue to accept something
- 41:24Speaker 2: that is so patently wrong right, so bullying, so nasty,
- 41:30Speaker 2: so mean spirited, so actually nothing like what it says
- 41:35Speaker 2: it is right? Why do we need to continue to
- 41:38Speaker 2: accept this? What is the reason when there is no
- 41:44Speaker 2: actual truth to it? Okay, yep, go ahead.
- 41:50Speaker 1: Real world harm research widely shows manusphere content causes harm
- 41:54Speaker 1: both to the boys and men who consume it and
- 41:57Speaker 1: to other people in their lives. What where's the research
- 42:02Speaker 1: causes real world I hope they go into this.
- 42:06Speaker 2: The international body of evidence claim is basically gesturing at
- 42:09Speaker 2: a loose pile of reports and studies from UN agencies, NGOs, governments,
- 42:13Speaker 2: and academics that interpret online mail spaces as a pipeline misogyny, violence,
- 42:18Speaker 2: or extremism, rather than one specific type evidence base. So
- 42:22Speaker 2: it's just a bunch of op eds.
- 42:25Speaker 1: So there's a bunch of op eds.
- 42:26Speaker 2: There's a such.
- 42:29Speaker 1: We've investigated ourselves and found the manisphere is going to
- 42:32Speaker 1: kill women. Yeah, it's gonna genocide women.
- 42:36Speaker 2: We're not saying that because it's just a retread of
- 42:39Speaker 2: the thing we always say, which is women are going
- 42:42Speaker 2: to be harmed, and we're we're not saying women are
- 42:44Speaker 2: going to be harmed because it turns everyone's brains off,
- 42:47Speaker 2: opens their wallets and makes us do makes them do
- 42:49Speaker 2: whatever we say. It's actually true this time, guys, it
- 42:53Speaker 2: really is.
- 42:56Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, all right, oh god, okay. Viewing mansphere content
- 43:07Speaker 1: is known to contribute to unhealthy body image. It's also
- 43:11Speaker 1: I don't think so wait a minute, lead back up.
- 43:13Speaker 1: I don't think that's true. I think that women's standards
- 43:17Speaker 1: might contribute to unhealthy body image for boys. And I've
- 43:21Speaker 1: seen it because I go to the gym with Lindsey,
- 43:25Speaker 1: and we used to go to the gym like before
- 43:27Speaker 1: I got cancer, and now that I'm like feeling, you know.
- 43:31Speaker 1: I got one more appointment coming up on the twenty
- 43:34Speaker 1: ninth for a CT scan to confirm that the cancer
- 43:37Speaker 1: is like at least gone, you know, completely. But we
- 43:42Speaker 1: started going back to the gym, and I noticed a
- 43:44Speaker 1: lot of guys, young guys in their like late teens,
- 43:47Speaker 1: early twenties, that are like really putting their body through
- 43:52Speaker 1: it to like get like shredded up. And you can
- 43:54Speaker 1: tell they're using geared. They're using well, steroid, I don't
- 44:00Speaker 1: know the house to describe it, because they get like this,
- 44:02Speaker 1: like this back acne. I don't know if you guys
- 44:05Speaker 1: have seen this, but like if you steroids, there's like
- 44:08Speaker 1: you can get like all kinds of side effects. But
- 44:10Speaker 1: they want to look a certain way. And a lot
- 44:12Speaker 1: of these guys are kind of like five, you know,
- 44:14Speaker 1: like five seven, five eight, like they're shorter. So I
- 44:18Speaker 1: think that I think that it's probably more likely that
- 44:23Speaker 1: it's women's standards that are creating body image issues for
- 44:26Speaker 1: young men and not the manisphere. I'm almost certain that
- 44:30Speaker 1: that's true. I die on that hill, like what what
- 44:33Speaker 1: why would they be doing it for?
- 44:34Speaker 2: Andrew Tait? Are they all being auditioning?
- 44:36Speaker 1: They're going to be looking at them like nice cock, bro, Yeah,
- 44:39Speaker 1: you become his cop doing it for women, Yes, you
- 44:41Speaker 1: know his cup bearer, you know. Yeah, they're trying to
- 44:45Speaker 1: figure out what women want.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Yeah, they're trying to and they're.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Trying to like yeah, square that circle exactly, all right.
- 44:51Speaker 2: I can I can go on a little bit about
- 44:53Speaker 2: what they're what they're pointing to when they say there's
- 44:56Speaker 2: an international body of evidence, they're likely bundling together things
- 45:00Speaker 2: like un level alarms about the manosphere as a global
- 45:03Speaker 2: threat to gender equality and a driver of violence against
- 45:06Speaker 2: women and girls. So the institutions that rely on everybody
- 45:10Speaker 2: staying asleep about men's issues have said that the people
- 45:14Speaker 2: who talk about men's issues, even tangentially or adjacent or
- 45:17Speaker 2: even just briefly, they're the ones who are the problem.
- 45:23Speaker 2: What else would they say? Ngo and quasi government reports
- 45:27Speaker 2: example Canadian Museum for Human Rights UK Victims Commissioner that
- 45:32Speaker 2: describe the manosphere as networks normalizing digital misogyny, echo chambers,
- 45:37Speaker 2: and gender based violence, especially for boys and young men,
- 45:41Speaker 2: especially for boys and young men. So there's a recognition
- 45:44Speaker 2: that some other group is engaging in gender based violence. Okay,
- 45:48Speaker 2: I guess we don't want to poke that particular rabbit hole,
- 45:53Speaker 2: national or sector specific documents, education unions, mental health lobbies
- 45:57Speaker 2: and Rose acclaiming Rose, Oh, you son of a bitch,
- 46:02Speaker 2: you popped up here. Oh guys, you want to know
- 46:05Speaker 2: what Androse is. It's a feminist organization, domestic violence organization
- 46:11Speaker 2: in Australia that has constructed a situation where men who
- 46:15Speaker 2: are victims of domestic violence have to have something like
- 46:19Speaker 2: two to three times the body of evidence as a
- 46:22Speaker 2: woman who is a victim of domestic violence, and one
- 46:26Speaker 2: counterclaim by their abuser negates it. That's and Rose And
- 46:32Speaker 2: they're supposed to and they're saying they're creating equality.
- 46:36Speaker 1: What kind of.
- 46:37Speaker 2: Fucking equality is that? Right? What is the equality there?
- 46:42Speaker 2: You are constructing a two tiered justice system in which
- 46:47Speaker 2: male victims of domestic violence are basically buried by a
- 46:52Speaker 2: burden of proof. That's absurd, right, This is sorry and
- 46:58Speaker 2: Rose is a particular beef of mine, claiming menosphere content
- 47:02Speaker 2: worsens attitudes towards women, worson's attitude towards women, and increases
- 47:09Speaker 2: risk of harm in schools, relationships, or communities. Wow, certainly
- 47:15Speaker 2: we should continue to support these institutions that engage in
- 47:18Speaker 2: overt discrimination against boys and men when they are victims
- 47:22Speaker 2: of sexual assault and domestic violence, because God forbid there
- 47:27Speaker 2: be an increase in domestic violence and sexual assault against
- 47:33Speaker 2: the people we actually give a fuck about. You know what,
- 47:35Speaker 2: I'm being generous when I say that these organizations give
- 47:38Speaker 2: a fuck about female victims of sexual assault and domestic violence.
- 47:41Speaker 1: They don't.
- 47:42Speaker 2: They don't. They like them because they make money. They
- 47:47Speaker 2: make money, they give them clout, They don't give up
- 47:50Speaker 2: rats fucking ass about them. They don't give a rats
- 47:53Speaker 2: ass about any victim, but female victims make them money,
- 47:57Speaker 2: and they actually have embraced policies that ensure more women
- 48:03Speaker 2: experience domestic violence. More women are stuck in those situations
- 48:08Speaker 2: because otherwise they would have to question feminist orthodoxy. So
- 48:13Speaker 2: there are interventions right now, practical interventions right now that
- 48:17Speaker 2: can reduce the rate at which women are victimized by
- 48:20Speaker 2: domestic violence. But they're not being pursued, oh no, because
- 48:25Speaker 2: they threaten feminist orthodoxy. And by feminist orthodoxy, I mean
- 48:29Speaker 2: the gigantic trough of money, trough, the gigantic tsunami of
- 48:36Speaker 2: money that they get for pretending women are harmed meanwhile
- 48:41Speaker 2: promoting those very harms that they profit off of. These
- 48:45Speaker 2: people are despicable, right, even if you don't care about men,
- 48:50Speaker 2: you should really consider opposing them for women's sake. Because
- 48:55Speaker 2: get this, if we actually had a science based look
- 49:00Speaker 2: at domestic violence that included the full scope of the information,
- 49:04Speaker 2: we could probably do a lot more to make women
- 49:07Speaker 2: safe and prevent harm lots more. But we can't because
- 49:13Speaker 2: guess who is stopping that. Guess what unscientific cretiness, mass
- 49:21Speaker 2: of bullshit is stopping an actually science based look in
- 49:26Speaker 2: domestic violence. Guess guess? And they know that means more
- 49:33Speaker 2: women are victims of it. They know it, they know it,
- 49:37Speaker 2: and they're fine with that because they advocate for women
- 49:41Speaker 2: women for money. Okay. Academic articles that frame misogynist online
- 49:48Speaker 2: communities as gateways to the far right or violent extremism,
- 49:51Speaker 2: or conceptualize evidence based misogyny within evidence based misogyny conceptualize
- 49:58Speaker 2: evidence based.
- 50:02Speaker 1: What evidence academic misogyny.
- 50:07Speaker 2: That conceptualized evidence based misogyny with the manosphere, Well, we
- 50:12Speaker 2: shared one, Brian. It was that that's remember that puzzle
- 50:16Speaker 2: that female Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's evidence based misogyny.
- 50:23Speaker 1: Yep, basically reality. The reality is evidence based misogyny.
- 50:29Speaker 2: I would also guess that the evidence that men and
- 50:33Speaker 2: women rape at approximately the same rate, with a high
- 50:38Speaker 2: degree of women raping men, that's probably also evidence based misogyny.
- 50:44Speaker 2: So we got a new category. Guys, Hey, this is
- 50:46Speaker 2: this is good?
- 50:47Speaker 1: Eh.
- 50:47Speaker 2: Well, at least we got something new, evidence based misogyny.
- 50:51Speaker 2: Are you an evidence based misogynist?
- 50:56Speaker 3: I am?
- 50:57Speaker 1: I am an evidence based misogynist.
- 50:59Speaker 4: Yes, bade, evidence based misogynists, scientifically rigorous misogynist, empirically sourced misogynists.
- 51:14Speaker 2: Oh god, okay, next, all right, back to this. Yeah,
- 51:19Speaker 2: let's why we're going through this slow.
- 51:21Speaker 1: Oh, that's all right, it's it's it is kind of
- 51:23Speaker 1: a big article though, too, all right. Research widely oh
- 51:29Speaker 1: wait causes Oh yeah, Research widely shows manuscear content causes harm,
- 51:33Speaker 1: both to the boys and men who consume it and
- 51:34Speaker 1: the to other people in their lives. Viewing manasphere content
- 51:37Speaker 1: is known to contribute to unhealthy body image. It's also
- 51:40Speaker 1: correlated with beliefs about violence being permissible. Manisphere sentiments have
- 51:45Speaker 1: been identified among men who use violence violence being permissible.
- 51:51Speaker 2: Let me let me look that up. Let me look
- 51:53Speaker 2: that up.
- 51:54Speaker 1: And you keep going, Okay, I feel like it's gonna
- 51:56Speaker 1: be like not necessarily violence against women. But that's why
- 52:00Speaker 1: they're not saying violence against women. They're just saying violence
- 52:03Speaker 1: and instead. There again, it's reality. It's like, yeah, sometimes
- 52:07Speaker 1: you got to use violence to protect yourself or you know,
- 52:10Speaker 1: in defense of like the your property or whatever. That's
- 52:14Speaker 1: what I'm guessing it's gonna be. But anyway, our own
- 52:19Speaker 1: research into the influence of Manosphere content on boys' behavior
- 52:23Speaker 1: in schools has shown a shift in boys's attitudes towards
- 52:26Speaker 1: women and girls. Teachers report a discernible uptick in incidence
- 52:30Speaker 1: of gendered violence in their schools. H okay, well, so
- 52:38Speaker 1: you got feminine. You have female teachers, most likely who
- 52:43Speaker 1: already agree with your worldview, and they're seeing interactions between
- 52:47Speaker 1: boys and girls. And because words are violence, and attitudes
- 52:51Speaker 1: are violence, and opinions are violence, and science is violence,
- 52:56Speaker 1: they are seeing violence. Girls being uncomfortable is violence as well,
- 53:03Speaker 1: And so yes, they're gonna see violence. I just don't
- 53:07Speaker 1: believe you guys anymore. I just don't and I don't care.
- 53:10Speaker 1: I don't care. I don't think this is happening. There's
- 53:13Speaker 1: also a video on this.
- 53:15Speaker 2: But that's the Australia one. You sent it to me.
- 53:18Speaker 2: We could, like I said, we could do a series.
- 53:20Speaker 2: We could cover the Australia one next time.
- 53:22Speaker 1: No, this is Australia.
- 53:23Speaker 2: No, it's Japan today.
- 53:25Speaker 1: No, Allison, this is that literally starts the first word
- 53:29Speaker 1: in the article is Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia. This is that.
- 53:34Speaker 1: This is the video for this article.
- 53:37Speaker 2: Oh maybe we should have looked at the video. Oh
- 53:41Speaker 2: twenty eight minutes. Holy shit.
- 53:43Speaker 1: No, okay, yeah, it's long. I mean it. I mean it.
- 53:46Speaker 1: We could, but we're not gonna do it today. We
- 53:48Speaker 1: could do it another time. It might be the same
- 53:50Speaker 1: thing though, Okay. There's also emerging concern that Manisphere content
- 53:56Speaker 1: is contributing to a growing ideological shift among young men
- 54:00Speaker 1: and young women across multiple countries. Young men are voting
- 54:03Speaker 1: more conservatively than they used to. Gasp the humanity yeah
- 54:13Speaker 1: uh well, and again, you don't even have like a
- 54:15Speaker 1: definition for that. You just know it's not the way
- 54:17Speaker 1: you think they should vote, so you're just calling it conservative.
- 54:21Speaker 1: So further, there is abundant evidence that misogyny a central theme,
- 54:25Speaker 1: and Manisphere content is a predictor of all forms of
- 54:28Speaker 1: violence that includes gendered and extremist violence. There there's no
- 54:35Speaker 1: like you're just making claims, You're just correlating things. There
- 54:38Speaker 1: are growing calls to place misogyny at the center of
- 54:41Speaker 1: our the way. I'm sorry, there are growing calls to
- 54:44Speaker 1: place misogyny at the center our efforts, at the center
- 54:48Speaker 1: our efforts to counter and prevent extremist violence. That sentence
- 54:53Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. I thought, I'll read it the way
- 54:56Speaker 1: I think it should be written. There are growing calls
- 54:59Speaker 1: to play misogyny at the center of our efforts to
- 55:04Speaker 1: counter and prevent extremist violence. That makes more sense. This
- 55:07Speaker 1: means acknowledging the role of the manisphere in the process
- 55:10Speaker 1: of radicalization racist. Oh so now we're talking about racism.
- 55:14Speaker 1: Did that came out of nowhere, didn't it. Racist and
- 55:18Speaker 1: misogynistic attitudes have also been identified as an urgent concern
- 55:22Speaker 1: for national security given their significant contributors to violence, treason, extremism.
- 55:26Speaker 2: Okay, I was actually thinking about they used racism as
- 55:29Speaker 2: a buttressing maneuver. But I was thinking about this because
- 55:34Speaker 2: I watched women talk about being in the workplace, well
- 55:38Speaker 2: feminist women, and one of the reasons why they said
- 55:43Speaker 2: that it was important. An important shift was because they
- 55:46Speaker 2: were even you know, white liberal women opposed the forces
- 55:50Speaker 2: of racism in the workplace. So they're legitimizing their own
- 55:55Speaker 2: claims and expectations and what they want by saying that
- 56:02Speaker 2: we were the only ones who could resolve this grave
- 56:05Speaker 2: evil that men allowed to run rampant. So they are legitimizing,
- 56:11Speaker 2: justifying things like the vote workplace inclusion, even like forced
- 56:16Speaker 2: workplace inclusion, forced vote to I would say force workplace inclusion,
- 56:22Speaker 2: and I say forced because the vote that women got
- 56:24Speaker 2: was not the vote that men got. They got their
- 56:27Speaker 2: own special category that was very special that men would
- 56:30Speaker 2: never have gotten. And all of these things, forcing themselves
- 56:36Speaker 2: into places, getting privileges without responsibilities is justified because they
- 56:41Speaker 2: protected the brown people, right, And that's a buttressing maneuver.
- 56:48Speaker 2: So if people are like, well, I don't know, it
- 56:50Speaker 2: seems like you screwed everything, ladies, they'll be like, but
- 56:53Speaker 2: we got rid of racism, did.
- 56:55Speaker 1: You, though, Yeah, I think I get that. Yeah, I
- 57:01Speaker 1: think it's just another like these are all just methods
- 57:03Speaker 1: of like establishing not just moral dominance, but a moral monopoly,
- 57:09Speaker 1: Like we we have the monopoly on good and they
- 57:13Speaker 1: use these words to maintain it and until people like
- 57:16Speaker 1: realize that these words are only used for that and
- 57:19Speaker 1: they don't actually describe anything that's worth talking about. That
- 57:24Speaker 1: this is just they're just going to keep doing it.
- 57:26Speaker 1: And I think that what they're calling racism, misogyny and
- 57:31Speaker 1: all this other stuff, what they're calling those men that
- 57:34Speaker 1: are in the manisphere that are sort of like looking
- 57:36Speaker 1: at these young guys that are like frustrated, is that
- 57:38Speaker 1: they stopped giving a shit about those words. They stopped
- 57:42Speaker 1: giving a shit like callus racists. We don't care because
- 57:45Speaker 1: what they're trying to do, like basically like they want
- 57:48Speaker 1: a better world. They have inherited a world that hates them,
- 57:52Speaker 1: that's hostile towards them for being born what they are,
- 57:56Speaker 1: and when they speak out, they call them this. They say,
- 57:59Speaker 1: you're you hate women, you hate gays, you hate blacks,
- 58:03Speaker 1: whatever you hate X group that makes you a terrible person.
- 58:07Speaker 1: Shut up, sit down. We're not going to give you
- 58:09Speaker 1: a job. You can't afford anything, you don't deserve a woman,
- 58:12Speaker 1: you should die alone and just like serve us, you know,
- 58:15Speaker 1: and be like a tax slave for the rest of
- 58:17Speaker 1: your life. And these guys are like, we're not doing
- 58:19Speaker 1: that anymore. And we don't care about these words. They
- 58:22Speaker 1: don't mean anything. Guys. We have to stop using them.
- 58:25Speaker 1: They're dead words. Okay, I'm sorry. If you're a gen
- 58:29Speaker 1: X or a boomer, you got to get over it.
- 58:30Speaker 1: It's over. Those are done. We're not doing that anymore.
- 58:33Speaker 1: Where like people want these young guys, they want like
- 58:36Speaker 1: real on the ground solutions that make sense. Okay. And
- 58:40Speaker 1: if you don't give that to them and you keep
- 58:42Speaker 1: shaming them, I'm telling you don't worry about like Nick
- 58:46Speaker 1: Fuentez or Andrew Tate. Worry about who comes after that.
- 58:48Speaker 1: If you don't address this because you can't get rid
- 58:50Speaker 1: of these guys. You can't make them go away by
- 58:52Speaker 1: calling them racists and sexist or whatever. That's not gonna work.
- 58:56Speaker 1: That's dead technology. Okay. We need to address the real
- 59:01Speaker 1: issues and have real, honest conversations.
- 59:06Speaker 2: Somebody was special in the Special Chat, just O Dean says,
- 59:10Speaker 2: who enforces the law? It's men exactly, you guys. Feminists
- 59:15Speaker 2: argue that men constructed society right and through their roles
- 59:19Speaker 2: as vision providers and protectors, they constructed society for the
- 59:23Speaker 2: benefit of men. And yet what do they do They
- 59:27Speaker 2: construct laws that discriminate against men for the benefit of women,
- 59:32Speaker 2: or at least the advocates who say they advocate for women. Right, Okay, well,
- 59:37Speaker 2: you've just disproven own your own belief about the world.
- 59:43Speaker 2: Just o, Dean, you've just discredited yourself.
- 59:46Speaker 1: I'm not sure if he but maybe he's trying to
- 59:49Speaker 1: make a claim that men could just do something about it,
- 59:52Speaker 1: but they're.
- 59:52Speaker 2: Not going to now. Unfortunately, men are too afraid of
- 59:55Speaker 2: women's approval or disapproval. I'm gonna just I'll put it
- 59:59Speaker 2: right out there. That's what I see. It was like
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: with that one article we read. I mean, it's getting better.
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: I think maybe with the newer generations because they realized that, well,
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: what does playing that game get you? Really, what does
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: playing the approval disapproval game for women get you. It's
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: not going to get you a wife. It's not going
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: to get you a girlfriend. You know, most met women,
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: if they're not completely asexual at this point, are still
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: going after the top twenty ten percent. So and if
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: it does get you a wife or girlfriend, she might
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: not be sexually attracted to you. She might just be
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: after a meal ticket. And guys are realizing this, they're
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: realizing that there's nothing on offer. The buffet is picked over,
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: you know, and the disapproval or approval of women is meaningless.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: It's meaningless, like at this point in time, the meaning
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: it has is purely punitive. They might get you fired,
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: they might send you to jail, and that's a big thing.
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: But there's no carrot anymore for a lot of men.
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: And they've recognized that. And that's why I think we're
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: seeing this bucking of the concern over the labels that
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: women use to put men in their place. Okay, but
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: are people of this ideology to put men in their place?
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: Okay?
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: And what was I going to say? But still, you know, men,
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: That last article is an example of this. Gen Z
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: and millennial men. Now they were men who were trying
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: to get jobs in Hollywood and media and academia, so
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: they probably were liberal men, but they they called out
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: boomer and gen X men for not fixing the situation.
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: At the same time as they all were terrified of
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: actually being made public of having these opinions, even though
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: they didn't even have a career in these fields. They
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: had nothing to lose, but they were still terrified of
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: being that guy. You know, the guy who's disapproved of
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: by women. Well, that's the same dynamic that caused the
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: problem in the first place. You think that gen Z
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: and Boomer men aren't also afraid of being that guy,
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: the one that you know, women disapprove of. So they
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: they allowed all of this to happen, and it landed
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: really much hurt harder on the millennial and gen Z
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: guys for the million gen Z guys are doing the
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: same thing. It's the same thing. You gotta get over that, right,
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: It's not really that big a deal. And I, you
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: know what, as a woman, even I have that, it's like, oh,
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: I don't want just I don't want women to I
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: have an anecdote, like I went to the city yesterday
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: and I went to Michael's and I was getting myself
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: a stretched canvas, as you do if you're an artist.
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: And I don't know what how they stacked those damn canvases,
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: but I got my canvas. The whole freaking display fell over,
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: and I I and not just that display, the display
- 1:02:58Speaker 2: beside it fell over. So I spent a lot of
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: time picking it all up, putting it back together, and
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: then I went back for another one. But I was
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: I was checking out, and I realized we had like
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: a two for one on those on those canvas canvases.
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: So I went back to get another one really quickly,
- 1:03:14Speaker 2: and it fell over again, and I'm like, fuck it,
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: Like I don't even know. I don't know what kind
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: of goddamn magic the Michael's people use to keep those
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: damn things up the first time. And I have struggled
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: with this and now I'm under a time crunch. So
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: I was walking away and some freaking boomer woman trottles
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: over and says I again to pick those up, and
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: immediately I go back and start doing and then I'm
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: like thinking, why am I doing this? It's not my
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: fucking fault that this thing is not. I do not
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: know how to make this thing work. Yeah, and I
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: just left it. I'm like, fuck it, fuck you, fuck it.
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: And even me, like even even women like me and
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: men and you know, guys, who are you still get
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: still get that twinge when a woman shames you, Right,
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: everybody's like that, but you know you just gotta say
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: fuck it, fuck it, right, I don't know how to
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: get these things balanced again. I don't have the time
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: to do it. Fuck it. You can think I'm a bit.
- 1:04:20Speaker 2: You can think I'm a white trash. You can think
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: whatever you want, but I gotta move on with my life.
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: Let these women think whatever they want. What are you
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: gonna get? What are they gonna take from you? Very little? Okay,
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: unless unless your job is in the line, Yes you can.
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: You can keep it quiet for the workplace, karens. Anyway,
- 1:04:46Speaker 2: let's keep going, all.
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: Right, the next frontiers. Alongside the established evidence, we're seeing
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: signs of where manisphere beliefs might manifest next if they're
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: not already. In relationships and dating and vice, circulating and
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: manisphere spaces will continue to frame intimacy in transactional and
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: manipulative terms. This will erode trust in mutual respects while
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: normalizing male entitlement in relationships.
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: Entitlement. Okay, lady, a person, you wrote this.
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: You know what women are looking for these days? This
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: is like completely divorce from reality. I'm sorry, else and
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: go ahead.
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: Yeah, well, not just what they're looking for, like statistical
- 1:05:29Speaker 2: evidence of what they look If men earned one hundred
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: and fifty eight percent more than the average single man did,
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: they'd probably be married. And if a divorced man didn't
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: lose his job, he probably wouldn't be divorced. These are
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: the two biggest causal factors for getting married and getting
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: divorced is money. I'm sorry. Relationships are apparently transactional and
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: men didn't make that rule, right. The manosphere of content
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: is just men trying to live with the transactional nature
- 1:06:06Speaker 2: that women created. They're not going to omit that.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: Nope, not in a million years. Transactional so ridiculous. Women
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: are the ones with the ich lists and like the
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: the ability to filter, you know, like men by their
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: height on dating apps. But okay, mm hmm. Over time,
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: such messages risk reshaping or regressing expectations around dating, partnership,
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: and consent. The manisphere of frames work and study as
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: competitive arenas, discourses around high value men and grindset culture
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: blame feminism or soft values for proceived failures or inefficiencies.
- 1:06:50Speaker 2: Okay, but that's in the men themselves. Like I mean,
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know if if the people
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: who wrote this actually listen to us, so I think
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: we'd melt their brains. Because the mental sphere content is
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: saying it's effeminacy and feminism in the men, we're saying
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: it's in the institutions. That's the problem the difference, like
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: it's reframing it on men. Get rid of the feminacy,
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: get rid of the feminist leanings. No, I'm not going
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: to say that to men. We need to get feminism
- 1:07:22Speaker 2: out of our institutions. Well, I mean, honestly, the institutions
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: are just going to fall and through process of elimination
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: and evolution, we're going to move away from that. But
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: you know, we could just get rid of it now
- 1:07:36Speaker 2: and see how it goes. That's what I would advocate for.
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: I don't care if a man is a femboy. I
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: don't care if he's a twink. I don't care if
- 1:07:45Speaker 2: he saw che's. Let's get rid of feminism from our institutions.
- 1:07:49Speaker 2: I think that would actually melt these guys' brains. They're
- 1:07:53Speaker 2: not ready for that. They're just defended at the idea
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: that guy's saying, don't have limp risks, dude, you know slift.
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: Bro, Yeah, okay, okay. This narrative positions career success as
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: a masculine duty while dismissing collaboration and diversity, with long
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: term consequences for equity in schools and workplaces.
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: So so, how is this going to have any consequence
- 1:08:23Speaker 2: for equity. You guys have got that sealed up, Like,
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: I mean, are these boys that threatening? They're probably like
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: we've just gone over how they're not going to get
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: into academia. They're definitely not going to be getting into HR.
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: Where are these these boys who are going to just.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: So we're already not getting into those places. Yeah, so
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: they're already excluded. And then when men that what what
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: I think the manisphere broadly would support is men get
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: like becoming entrepreneurial, like basically not getting into a company
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: that's going to treat them like a wage slave with
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: an HR department that it's always looking for a reason
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: to get rid of him. They'd rather just make their
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: own thing happen. And these people want men in the bureaucracy.
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: We want them working as a worker bee in in
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: the giant corporate, bureaucratic, feminist friendly HR run you know, uh,
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: corporate culture. And men that don't want to do that, well,
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: they don't want to collaborate, they don't want they don't
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: want diversity. They're not interested in equity. That's what they're doing.
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: They're saying, men, why are you out here doing your
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: own thing. What's the grindset. That's like the again, it's
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: building your own wealth on your own without these people
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: meddling in your business. That's what their sets, what they're against.
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: They want men in the bureaucracy, they want them doing
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: their part.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: Yeah, but well here's the thing, long term consequences for
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: equity and schools and workplaces. This is like literally the
- 1:09:56Speaker 2: themosphere has locked all of that down.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: Right, they've got the barbed wire. They're monitoring the defense,
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: the perimeter with their stazi like there there's nothing, there's
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: nothing squeaking through. So and now they're saying, well, if
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: if boys actually develop a sense of themselves as boys
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: and start to value things like competition and striving, uh,
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: there could be a problem. Like where are these guys
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: gonna end up in hr? Are they gonna end up
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: in academic positions? No, they're just going to be striving
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: in their jobs. Like this is insane. This is this
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: is the ravings of like some villainous in a tower
- 1:10:46Speaker 2: on her throne screaming at a mirror and saying, find
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: me the things that could have threaten my rule, and
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: the mirror is showing them some peasant boy, you know,
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: playing in the mud finess, filthiness, somewhere in my perfect realm.
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: You know, it's like, you guys are insane. You are
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: so evil you have gone nuts. Okay, yep, it.
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: Is nuts, all right? This narrative, oh no, I already
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: read the part. Finally, Manisphere narratives of crisis and decline
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: dovetail with populist politics in the United States. Remember this
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: is Australia. They're like a world away. I don't know
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: why they would give a shit about what's happening here.
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: They have their own problems. But okay, let's start about
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: the United States. In the United States, aggrieved male voters
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: have been central to Donald Trump's rise, attracted to his
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: performance of strongman masculinity. See now now okay, obviously, sorry guys,
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: I know you're tired of hearing about him. But isn't
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: it interesting that earlier in the article they talked about
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: how this is the manisphere is like in bed with
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: white supremacy, and you know the guys they got Trump
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: into the office. It was Latino men and black men
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: that came out in like high numbers, especially the Latino men.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: So that that doesn't they can't square that circle. So
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: they're just gonna like say it and hope nobody looks
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: into it or ask the question. So, yeah, it was
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: men that came out because they were tired of the insanity.
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: That's the only reason. And that was good enough. I'll
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: take it. So strong man masculinity again, if we just
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: take that on its own, like in isolation, what's wrong
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: with that? Also, they're wrong with with strong man masculinity.
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: They hate that stuff we us. That's why they.
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: Hate literally all masculinity. Yeah, okay, any masculinity that opposes
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: them strong men or other.
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: But that's why they call it strong man masculinitly ales
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: and like that. It is the It doesn't that the
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: adjective is irrelevant. It's masculinity they're going after. But they
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: they add strong men in the beginning because they want
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: you to refute the strongman part. But you're not paying
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: attention to the fact that they're not going after that.
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: They're just using that. So like, I embrace the strong
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: man part. Fine, sure that's great. Now what that's what
- 1:13:10Speaker 1: that's how I see it. Okay, strong man masculine, sure,
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: go ahead, fascist masculine, Okay, yeah, that's what it is. Now,
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: what what are you gonna do about it. That's where
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: I'm at right now, because this is all that that's
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: this is all emotional manipulation. I'm not doing this anymore. Okay, I.
- 1:13:27Speaker 2: Just want to point something out, all right, Okay, there,
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: the decline is is obvious. Okay, everywhere where women have
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: dominated in academia has suffered from a massive decline in
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: the ethics and reliability of academia, right everywhere they've gone
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: and they've dominated. Now publishing, publishing is probably in a
- 1:13:54Speaker 2: terminal decline, and it may take the novel with it.
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: Like I've been doing a whole bunch of scraping on
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: the internet data to look into this. But it's we're
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: seeing a complete collapse. And it is not because people's
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: attention spans are so short. It's because the product is subpar.
- 1:14:14Speaker 2: It doesn't function the way it is supposed to, and
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: it doesn't function the way it's supposed to because women
- 1:14:20Speaker 2: who are accountable to nobody and don't listen to anyone
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: about how the industry functioned now dominate everywhere in it
- 1:14:30Speaker 2: and it's in a death spiral that they can't get
- 1:14:32Speaker 2: out of because nobody. Everybody's too risk adverse. Right, this
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: is happening in every industry, crashing and burning, and even
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: like if you look at AI, which is probably male dominated,
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: it is suffering from this kind of almost like cynical
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: nihilistic god complex because they think somehow AI is going
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: to solve things now. And I'm like looking at it,
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: and I'm like thinking, so AI replaces human beings? Why
- 1:15:02Speaker 2: would you do that? We have plenty of human beings, Like,
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: we're not lacking in human beings, why would you replace them?
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: And I think that part of it is that a
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: lot of these tech pros are in this mindset of
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: being the one good man who is going to save
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: the bloody universe, and that itself is a manifestation of
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: the toxicity between men and women. All Right, So it's
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: like it's across the board. The shittiest decisions are being
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: made because we got rid of the masculine toolkit, which
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: ends up getting rid of the feminine toolkit too, and
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: now we're just operating on the narcissist, sociopath god complex toolkit.
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: God help us, God help us, all all right, next
- 1:15:46Speaker 2: next part?
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: All right? All right, So, yeah, narratives are crisis, so
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: they call you in narratives a crisis. All men aren't
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: having problems. Men are the problem. Similar dynamics may surface
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: elsewhere as leaders draw on themes of protection, grievance, and
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: a return to traditional order. So that all of this, okay,
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: we got the fear mongering out of the way, so
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: now we're gonna get to their solutions. Let's see, I'm
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: not gonna read it. What do you guys think it's
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: gonna be. What do you think they're gonna propose? Where
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: do we go from here? What do you think they're
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: gonna say? Let me know. In the comments, I'm gonna
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: say we need to They're gonna say something like, we
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: need to have a conversation about a conversation. We need
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: to respond to this threat and censorship, we got to
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: ban them. Australia loves banning things. They're big on censorship.
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: They're big on that. So okay, But anyway, where to
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: from here? The danger with manisphere content is that it
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: exaggerates and exploits real and perceive problems, issues and grievances
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: among boys and men. Oh so men have problems, but
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: the manisphere is what they're the wrong people to deal with.
- 1:16:55Speaker 2: Like this, this article is demonstrating how the demosphere will
- 1:16:59Speaker 2: give you a warm embrace and tend to your problems.
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: They're clearly the best qualified.
- 1:17:04Speaker 2: Okay, I'm like, seriously, guys, if you're a man who's wondering,
- 1:17:09Speaker 2: consider whether or not the person writing is going to
- 1:17:13Speaker 2: acknowledge and suggest dealing with your problems. Like I've had
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: this argument with feminists in the past, Like they would
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: say things like, uh, while men, you know, the patriarchy
- 1:17:28Speaker 2: prevents men from getting domestic services, And I would say things,
- 1:17:32Speaker 2: why don't we just pay for them?
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: Right?
- 1:17:34Speaker 2: Why do we have to change an entire social organization
- 1:17:38Speaker 2: before men get shelters or whatever they need when they're
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: victims of domestic violence? Why don't we just pay for that?
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: And they're like, but the patriarchy, and like, no, it's you.
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: You.
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: You have your fingers on the purse springs, the purse strings,
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: and you, guys are the ones who are preventing any
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: practical solution, and you are you are creating a camouflage
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: for that by saying, actually, no, it's patriarchy that's preventing it,
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: when it is you, Like it is so infuriating, and
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: that's the thing. Just look at just listen to these
- 1:18:14Speaker 2: people do they acknowledge that men might not always be
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: the problem, Like when they say, uh, oh, what is it?
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: They say? The dangerous with menacephere content is that it
- 1:18:25Speaker 2: exaggerates and exploits real and perceived problems. Exaggerates. What do
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: you mean by that? What do they mean by this? Exaggerates?
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: Do you mean we say things like there is a problem,
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: we should fix it? Is that exaggerating the problem? Is
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: exaggerating the problem? You know, anything that beyond just acknowledging
- 1:18:47Speaker 2: the problem and then saying, but the real issue is
- 1:18:50Speaker 2: how this affects women, And anything else is exaggeration, Like
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: maybe we should do something about it. That's an exaggeration.
- 1:18:58Speaker 2: Maybe we should recognize these problems as legitimate on their
- 1:19:02Speaker 2: own without constantly appealing to how they affect women. That's exaggeration.
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: Can we is the stuff that I'm saying? Exaggeration? In
- 1:19:10Speaker 2: other words, if a society progressively and systematically ostracizes the
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: psychological toolkit of half of its evolved members, it's going
- 1:19:21Speaker 2: to have a problem. Is that exaggeration? I don't look
- 1:19:25Speaker 2: around like I think that our society is sort of
- 1:19:30Speaker 2: entering the pain here, So we're gonna have a proof
- 1:19:32Speaker 2: in the pudding moment. Mm hmm okay, next paragraph.
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: All right, yeah, so where to from here? This means
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: it's becoming increasingly confusing to distinguish what are legitimate and
- 1:19:46Speaker 1: reasonable concerns among young men, what has been manufactured and
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: how victimhood can be constructed by manisphere ideologies.
- 1:19:54Speaker 2: Oh, throw it all out, then, any claim, any issue
- 1:19:57Speaker 2: that men face, just let's just throw it out. We
- 1:20:01Speaker 2: can't be sure that it isn't exaggerated, and we will
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: be the ones who determined that, right, we will be
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: the ones who determine how much of men's issues we
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: should take care of. It's like that. It's like the
- 1:20:14Speaker 2: fox determining how safe the henhouse is. No, no, no,
- 1:20:22Speaker 2: don't don't put that that extra chicken That extra chicken
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: wire is unnecessary. That's an exaggeration of the dangers of foxes.
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: Oh you know what, actually, even having an enclosure that
- 1:20:35Speaker 2: is foxproof, that's an exaggeration of how dangerous foxes are.
- 1:20:38Speaker 2: Get rid of that. These people are despicable.
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: Yeah. Also interesting that they would say the manisphere promotes
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: a kind of you know, masculinity that's like you know,
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: toxic and stoic and top and all of this. But
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: also they're trying to manufacture victimhood.
- 1:21:00Speaker 2: And also yet we promote men being able to accept
- 1:21:04Speaker 2: their vulnerabilities and victimhood and cry, but deeply on our terms, Yeah,
- 1:21:10Speaker 2: on our terms, we biefly suspect anything that men really
- 1:21:13Speaker 2: have to cry about. We don't believe that men should cry.
- 1:21:17Speaker 2: But there's nothing they really have to cry about, so
- 1:21:19Speaker 2: shut up.
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: Yep, women have it worse.
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: Men cry. Women have it worse. Okay, next next paragraph?
- 1:21:25Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: Explicitly honing young people's critical digital literacy is an approach
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: committed to empowering young people to become more discerning, to
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: question not only what they are viewing, but its ideologies,
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: how it makes them feel, and how platforms are designed
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: to provoke particular responses. Honing young people's critical digital literacy
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: is an approach. So they're gonna try to brainwash your
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: children away from manuscaret content or content they don't like. Basically,
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: that's what I'm guessing. Yeah, they're going to teach them
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: skills to avoid content that disagrees with the hegemonic zych
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: pushing out.
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: Do they realize that reality is manosphere content?
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: Like the manisphere isn't They live in a hyper real
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: illusion of the world, which is how they want it
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: to be, and they're going to make everybody live by that. Yes,
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: what this is, they're trying to what they're supposed to
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: live under their it's not even it's not reality. It
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: is an illusion, and we all have to accept the illusion.
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: If we all accept the illusion, then it becomes real.
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: Yeah. The reality is that young men experience being treated
- 1:22:45Speaker 2: like second second class citizens. They experience things like being abused,
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: being raped, and sexually assaulted. In fact, there's more and
- 1:22:54Speaker 2: more young men who are being raped and sexually assaulted
- 1:22:58Speaker 2: by this incredibly violent, sexual violent generation of young women
- 1:23:02Speaker 2: that we have constructed chauvinistic like, incredibly sexually entitled, violent
- 1:23:10Speaker 2: young women. So more and more young men are experiencing
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: sexual violence and also experiencing being forced to take responsibility
- 1:23:21Speaker 2: for the sexual violence of other men. Meanwhile, women's sexual
- 1:23:27Speaker 2: violence is a non starter, so they're more experiencing more
- 1:23:30Speaker 2: of that. They're experiencing more of the domestic violence that
- 1:23:33Speaker 2: isn't being addressed, they're experiencing overt discrimination right. All of
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: this and in previous generations, most men, if they told
- 1:23:45Speaker 2: the party line could probably have a woman now they
- 1:23:49Speaker 2: don't even get that. And every time they try to
- 1:23:52Speaker 2: understand what makes them attractive to women, like a by
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: sex species wants, you know, they want to be attractive
- 1:24:02Speaker 2: to the opposite sex, they get beaten down as being
- 1:24:06Speaker 2: wrong and they're only allowed to pursue being attractive to
- 1:24:10Speaker 2: women along very specific vetted vectors that feminists approve of,
- 1:24:17Speaker 2: but women don't actually find attractive, and they have pressures
- 1:24:20Speaker 2: that they have to live up to in terms of
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: women's expectations looks, height, money, a certain personality type, and
- 1:24:32Speaker 2: they have to do They have to live up to
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: these expectations to have a chance, but we can't talk
- 1:24:37Speaker 2: about them if they ever talk about them in order
- 1:24:40Speaker 2: to develop the skills to live up to them. They're toxic,
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: misogynist manuscure freaks, right. They're experiencing this whole squirming ball
- 1:24:50Speaker 2: of fuck and that is their reality, and that is
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: what's pushing them towards trying to find out what is
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: actually going on. And yes, may from pumped up like
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: manisphere content that will acknowledge that there are problems, but
- 1:25:05Speaker 2: then just go right back onto. But you need the
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: man up and it actively suppresses the real like that
- 1:25:13Speaker 2: the stuff that really opposes the narrative, which is us,
- 1:25:17Speaker 2: which is society has to take responsibility for how it
- 1:25:21Speaker 2: treats its sons or society is going to collapse. That's
- 1:25:26Speaker 2: not a message they want to hear. They want to
- 1:25:28Speaker 2: continue to cash these free checks and it's boys and
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: men's men who have to cover the balance. Like they
- 1:25:36Speaker 2: just want to continue to do that. They don't want
- 1:25:39Speaker 2: to make any changes because too many, too many people's
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: careers are reliant on that. I see this every every
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: time Michael Flood swans into my mentions. He's a feminist professor,
- 1:25:49Speaker 2: big and an ros By the way, right, he's part
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: of a Rose. Well he's he's gotten a grant from
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: an Rosbe I shouldn't say part of he's gotten a
- 1:25:59Speaker 2: grant for a Rose to talk about male victims of
- 1:26:01Speaker 2: domestic fun. Good lord, But yeah, he's a career feminist.
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: There's too many people whose career relies on this narrative.
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: So we're gonna keep drilling boys, and that's what it is.
- 1:26:13Speaker 2: People don't want to change because they get money for this,
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: and they're just going to keep inflicting this nastiness on
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: boys and forcing boys to ignore reality and expecting boys
- 1:26:26Speaker 2: to cough up more sacrifice so that they can maintain
- 1:26:30Speaker 2: their fucking money. And here's the other thing. Boys are
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: facing an economy so crippled by government spending and corporate
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: bullshit like corporate government collusion, that they may never get
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: a job, so they have to they have to expend
- 1:26:50Speaker 2: there's what's left of their self worth. They have to
- 1:26:53Speaker 2: hand it over to these career feminists so that the
- 1:26:59Speaker 2: career feminists can feel legitimated, can feel self righteous as
- 1:27:04Speaker 2: they exploit them and women, as they exploit everyone. It is,
- 1:27:10Speaker 2: as I said, a squirming ball of fuck, and unfortunately
- 1:27:16Speaker 2: not many people want to hear that.
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: Yep, okay, all right, I got a rumble rant from
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: Nova Fan twenty one gives a dollar and says feminist article,
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: men are being tricked into believing values that worked in
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: a society far more successful than we are in today. Men.
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: Oh no, that's terrible. Tell me more so I can
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: avoid it. Yeah, all right, thank you. I mean, they're
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: looking for answers that these people hate, so not even
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: a guarantee that what it is they're they're reaching for
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: is going to work. But it doesn't matter. These people
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: want them back on the plantation effectively. Yeah, all right,
- 1:27:59Speaker 1: explicitly holding young people's critical digital literacy already read that part.
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: I'm sorry. These skills promote the development of critical dispositions,
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: essential lifelong skills that will help them to consume information
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: in a more informed, less reactive way. Critical literacy and
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: kids helps them to become adults who are informed and
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: discerning and therefore empowered.
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: Bullshit, all of this. None of this stuff has any
- 1:28:23Speaker 2: scientific legitimacy, none of it. Let's listen to this. Okay,
- 1:28:29Speaker 2: there's no single, clearly cited data set that directly supports
- 1:28:32Speaker 2: that exact wording.
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: That was.
- 1:28:35Speaker 2: The exact wording was manosphere sentiments have been identified among
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: men who use violence. Okay, this article is lying. There's
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: no evidence for that. It doesn't exist. And I'll go
- 1:28:50Speaker 2: down to the conclusion here. There is not in the
- 1:28:52Speaker 2: materials that they surface, So anything related to that sentiment,
- 1:28:57Speaker 2: a single well defined data set that justifies the strong
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: categ goracle claim that manosphere's sentiments have been identified among
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: men among men who use violence. So they're outright lying
- 1:29:07Speaker 2: to their audience and they're talking about critical thinking. Critical
- 1:29:10Speaker 2: thinking starts with believing things that are empirically sound, none
- 1:29:13Speaker 2: of which is in this article. These are frauds. Fraudsters.
- 1:29:20Speaker 2: They present the idea that they have some kind of
- 1:29:23Speaker 2: true knowledge about the world, and they don't. They are
- 1:29:26Speaker 2: lying to everyone and they're it's like, it's we've we've
- 1:29:31Speaker 2: we've gone past anything human and we're now in a
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: a society run by liars and shysters and psychos. This
- 1:29:45Speaker 2: is this is just lying and what are they and
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: what at the end of the day are they going
- 1:29:49Speaker 2: to get Like if if boys look at the world
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: through their lens, which is basically denying reality because again
- 1:29:55Speaker 2: there isn't like manosphere people on a corner, like with
- 1:29:58Speaker 2: like a trench coat say hey, hey, little boy, got something,
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: I've got something you'd like to see. Huh, It's that's ridiculous.
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: It's not what's happening, right. They are experiencing being treated
- 1:30:10Speaker 2: like second class citizens and being told that they're privileged,
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: and they are trying to square the fuck circle. Okay,
- 1:30:20Speaker 2: you are outright lying to them about reality. You are
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: pissing on them and calling it that the saying it's
- 1:30:26Speaker 2: raining right, and they are noticing this because you can't
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: keep this cognitive dissonance. Right, I am being told I'm privileged,
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: and yet in every single circumstance I have to concede
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: to the to the girls and women in my life
- 1:30:42Speaker 2: and take responsibility for the behavior of men who I
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: have no control over. Right, That's what's creating the problem
- 1:30:52Speaker 2: is the dissonance, and the dissonance is sending them somewhere
- 1:30:56Speaker 2: to get an explanation. Okay, you're making this problem. You
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: are creating this problem because you're expecting boys to believe
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: too contradictory, something that contradicts the their lived reality as
- 1:31:11Speaker 2: you would like to say, as you usually as these
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: people like to say, right experience, right, lived experience. Right,
- 1:31:19Speaker 2: You're expecting them to believe something that contradicts their lived experience.
- 1:31:23Speaker 2: And also you're expecting them to tolerate you as somebody
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: who is in power over them, treating them as lesser
- 1:31:33Speaker 2: while being told that they're the ones who have power.
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: Cognitive is if stentent city. So they're trying to find
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: an explanation for it, and then they go online. You
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: are driving them into it. And the only way, like
- 1:31:49Speaker 2: this critical reading of Manisphere content, how are you going
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: to manage that? Like if they are looking for an
- 1:31:56Speaker 2: explanation for why you're lying to their faces. I don't
- 1:32:01Speaker 2: think anything you tell them is gonna help unless it's
- 1:32:05Speaker 2: the truth. And nobody's gonna tell them the truth because guys, boys,
- 1:32:11Speaker 2: your mental health and well being is irrelevant. These people want,
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: they want justification for why they get to continue to
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: be paid.
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:32:22Speaker 2: So they'll just create a bunch of lazy bullshit that
- 1:32:25Speaker 2: paints a target on you. God, I wish we could
- 1:32:29Speaker 2: talk to more people. I wish we had more of
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: a reach. No instead we Instead it's Andrew Tate.
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: Yep. Okay, well that's the end of the article.
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: So yeah, I thought there was more crap. No, we
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: could look at the comments.
- 1:32:50Speaker 1: You want to look at the comments. They seem to
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: mostly be critical. Yeah, uh mostly.
- 1:32:59Speaker 2: I mean what's the most critical?
- 1:33:02Speaker 1: The most critical? I don't know I even read.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: Them all, but I mean, oh, well, here, Ebison, here,
- 1:33:08Speaker 2: I'll read this one because you've been reading the whole thing. Yeah,
- 1:33:11Speaker 2: probably so that you're actually heard, like Ebyson JT. I
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: make a deep promise that the next time I see
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: a female roofing hammer in hand, for example, installing solar
- 1:33:23Speaker 2: panels or protection tiles on a tilted roof on forty
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: degree Celsius shall stop and seriously consider her perspectives. Some
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: job equality, just for reference, I've never seen one, as
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: well as I've never seen them in many other menosphere
- 1:33:35Speaker 2: and sexist jobs no better topic for a Monday morning.
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: When some men go and do some gender specific jobs,
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: women won't touch with a mile long pull. And that's
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: the thing, Like, we have a group of people we
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: one hundred percent rely on for the continuing function of
- 1:33:53Speaker 2: our society. I'm sorry women's jobs are optional. The only
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: women's job that isn't optional is giving birth? Really at
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: this point, and we spend no time thinking about how
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: to make sure they're happy with what they're doing, or
- 1:34:10Speaker 2: at least content or at least feel some satisfaction in
- 1:34:14Speaker 2: doing it. I mean, think about that, guys. We spend
- 1:34:18Speaker 2: more time thinking about how to raise boys to kiss
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: feminist academic ass, then we'd spend thinking about how, hey,
- 1:34:29Speaker 2: you know, those those men who do everything that keeps
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: our lives possible, Maybe we should think about making sure
- 1:34:37Speaker 2: that they're content with what they're doing, you know, making
- 1:34:42Speaker 2: sure that they have what they need, making sure they're
- 1:34:45Speaker 2: not going to be destroyed in a divorce, right, No, no, no, no,
- 1:34:50Speaker 2: that's unacceptable thought, you know, actually caring about the people
- 1:34:55Speaker 2: who make sure we have a world. Who would do that,
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: They don't deserve it, that's entitlement. No, no, no, we
- 1:35:02Speaker 2: need to care about We need to care about feminist
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: academic lives. Feminist academic lives matter, don't you know? That's
- 1:35:10Speaker 2: what society should be structured around, making sure feminist academics
- 1:35:16Speaker 2: don't feel bad about themselves and don't lose their tenure.
- 1:35:21Speaker 2: Oh like really it feels like society. That's what society
- 1:35:25Speaker 2: revolves around at this point. Okay, yep, no, oh, x
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: End the Band not even nine am on a Monday
- 1:35:35Speaker 2: morning and there's already an article criticizing men in masculinity,
- 1:35:39Speaker 2: and Xen the Band says, no one is criticizing ah,
- 1:35:43Speaker 2: men and mal masculinity. Really, well, name a positive aspect
- 1:35:47Speaker 2: of masculinity. You don't need to take things out personally, No,
- 1:35:51Speaker 2: it's just his. Nobody's criticizing all trans people. You don't
- 1:35:56Speaker 2: need to take anything so personally. Nobody's criticizing all women.
- 1:36:00Speaker 2: You don't need to think things so personally this article.
- 1:36:04Speaker 2: Nobody's criticizing all black people. You don't need to take
- 1:36:07Speaker 2: things so personally. This article about these menisphere cloans who
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: pedal their ridiculous brand of toxic masculinity that actually hurts
- 1:36:14Speaker 2: men too. Okay, I bet XC and the band cannot
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: identify a single positive masculine trade that he or she
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: associates with masculinity in the same way he or she
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: associates toxicity. So basically, when he's or she says toxic masculinity,
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: that's redundant. They peddle their ridiculous brand of masculinity. Period,
- 1:36:38Speaker 2: they pedal masculinity. We don't even need brand of They're
- 1:36:41Speaker 2: ridiculous masculinies. This is what this person's actually saying. The
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: article is about these men who paddle their pedal their
- 1:36:50Speaker 2: ridiculous masculinity that actually hurts men to right, And it's
- 1:36:57Speaker 2: right out of the playbook from all of the feminist
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: educators of the nineties who said, who basically say, masculinity
- 1:37:06Speaker 2: is something that patriarchy inflicts on boys, right, And if
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: patriarchy wasn't so horrible to boys, boys would be like girls,
- 1:37:15Speaker 2: almost identical, except they would have penises, I mean not forever,
- 1:37:20Speaker 2: as soon as we convince them to cut them off,
- 1:37:22Speaker 2: then they'll be perfect. Okay, yeah, do you want to
- 1:37:31Speaker 2: close it off?
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: It's yeah. I mean, I don't know, we we I
- 1:37:35Speaker 1: think we've done.
- 1:37:37Speaker 2: We've done, We've done our shift.
- 1:37:40Speaker 1: A sufficient job of I don't know. I don't know.
- 1:37:44Speaker 1: If unpacked.
- 1:37:46Speaker 2: Annihilating it, I think, yeah, oh good Lord.
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: Bottoming out on it, bottoming out, yeah, bottoming out, you
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: know what, at the.
- 1:37:58Speaker 2: Interest of being low cow, I think this is worth
- 1:38:00Speaker 2: bottoming out on.
- 1:38:02Speaker 1: Yeah, vomiting out on, Yeah.
- 1:38:05Speaker 2: Vomiting out.
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just I just think it's funny because
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: it's like, no matter what part of the world, it's
- 1:38:14Speaker 1: the same story. It's like men, the story is the
- 1:38:18Speaker 1: same everywhere, and that just doesn't sound organic. I mean,
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: I know we live in a more interconnected society because
- 1:38:26Speaker 1: of the Internet, but none of this sounds natural to me.
- 1:38:29Speaker 1: I think that this is just like a giant op
- 1:38:32Speaker 1: a gay on the whole west from all of these people,
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: and they all talk to each other, and they're all friends,
- 1:38:38Speaker 1: and they all know each other. They go to the
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: same parties, and they're all just like, so, how are
- 1:38:43Speaker 1: we shitting on men this month? You know, who's the
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: new boogeyman? We're gonna bring up yeah and that. Yeah,
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: they all coordinate on this stuff. It's just like the
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: gamers are dead articles from gamer gay It's the same thing.
- 1:38:54Speaker 2: Well, I would say that, like if I were to
- 1:38:57Speaker 2: give this a threat narrative analysis, the thing that they're
- 1:39:02Speaker 2: trying to neutralize is let me see it is right there.
- 1:39:08Speaker 2: The danger with manosphere content is that exaggerates and exploits
- 1:39:11Speaker 2: real and perceive problems, issues and grievances among boison men.
- 1:39:15Speaker 2: These people will never recognize these things because they interfere
- 1:39:18Speaker 2: with their slush, that the flow of money. Like it's
- 1:39:22Speaker 2: as simple as that, guys. This is like, it's as
- 1:39:24Speaker 2: simple as that your pain you're suffering, not blaming you,
- 1:39:30Speaker 2: like occasionally getting a break from being blamed all the
- 1:39:33Speaker 2: issues that you face, which are also actually society issues,
- 1:39:36Speaker 2: because eventually, if you screw with the people who are
- 1:39:40Speaker 2: men who are manufacturing what makes society possible to a
- 1:39:46Speaker 2: sufficient degree, you are actually destroying the thing that makes
- 1:39:51Speaker 2: society possible. Do you guys understand the logic there? Right,
- 1:39:55Speaker 2: So they don't want to recognize this stuff out of
- 1:40:00Speaker 2: incredibly short term thinking. This isn't even like you know,
- 1:40:04Speaker 2: you know, some old evil dude on his throne who
- 1:40:10Speaker 2: at the very least wants to maintain the stability and
- 1:40:14Speaker 2: prosperity of his kingdom because he enjoys getting taxes. Right.
- 1:40:20Speaker 2: That isn't even this. They're in smash and grab. They're
- 1:40:24Speaker 2: in looting mindset. This is not sustainable because it's destroying
- 1:40:30Speaker 2: the very thing it feeds on, which is a productive
- 1:40:33Speaker 2: male tax base. Right, it's destroying it, it's deincentivizing it.
- 1:40:40Speaker 2: But they're still doing it because right now it makes
- 1:40:42Speaker 2: the money. They don't need taxes. They can just get
- 1:40:47Speaker 2: blackrock grants and money from the government. Yeah, that's where
- 1:40:51Speaker 2: it's at, right, And that's just printed out of nowhere.
- 1:40:53Speaker 2: Nobody has to be productive to get that. It's just
- 1:40:56Speaker 2: you just you just make another treasury bond. Who cares?
- 1:41:00Speaker 2: Who cares? If the rates are going through the roof?
- 1:41:02Speaker 2: Who cares? Let's just it's money. It's free money, and
- 1:41:06Speaker 2: they're making free money. Because people lose the ability to
- 1:41:10Speaker 2: think critically once you say, well, women are being harmed,
- 1:41:13Speaker 2: and if you point out, well, wait, also men are
- 1:41:16Speaker 2: being harmed, then people's critical thinking kicks in again and
- 1:41:19Speaker 2: they're like, well, okay, I don't know if I want
- 1:41:22Speaker 2: to help with that, but if if we have to,
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: then we should probably do something that ends it quickly
- 1:41:28Speaker 2: so we don't have to spend too much money on
- 1:41:30Speaker 2: men that they don't want. That they want people without
- 1:41:34Speaker 2: critical faculties so they can continue to gorge themselves at
- 1:41:39Speaker 2: the trough of money. And that's what it comes down to.
- 1:41:45Speaker 2: This individual is trying to maintain a threat narrative that
- 1:41:49Speaker 2: is incredibly lucrative. This threat narrative is probably trillions worth
- 1:41:55Speaker 2: of money, not to mention all of the jobs and
- 1:41:59Speaker 2: credential and positions that it upholds. Right, it's huge. What's
- 1:42:06Speaker 2: the bunch of boys? What's a bunch of boys killing
- 1:42:09Speaker 2: themselves or not actually finding jobs or quiet quitting. What's
- 1:42:13Speaker 2: the what's the whole generation of lost boys? When it
- 1:42:16Speaker 2: comes to making money right and in the worst way possible.
- 1:42:20Speaker 2: I'm not talking about like small businesses or entrepreneurialship. I'm
- 1:42:24Speaker 2: talking about lying to people and government graft and corporate bullshit,
- 1:42:30Speaker 2: hr bullshit like this this is this is sick and
- 1:42:37Speaker 2: they're trying to push the sickness on boys. It's like
- 1:42:42Speaker 2: that one woman the the the Democratic republic or democratic representative.
- 1:42:49Speaker 2: Remember Sarah something Sarah Stocker, I think and go ahead,
- 1:42:56Speaker 2: is that the correct name?
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: I'm not sure? Okay talking about but go ahead?
- 1:43:01Speaker 2: Well, she said, Oh, I sometimes don't feel good about
- 1:43:05Speaker 2: being white.
- 1:43:06Speaker 1: Oh oh yeah, yeah, I know who you're talking about,
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: but I don't know her name. She went viral recently
- 1:43:11Speaker 1: for Yeah.
- 1:43:12Speaker 2: She says, I don't feel always feel good about being white.
- 1:43:14Speaker 2: And it's even worse, like I'm not just a white woman.
- 1:43:18Speaker 2: Think about all the white boys that I have control
- 1:43:21Speaker 2: over and how ashamed they should feel and how ashamed
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: I tell them they should feel. And of course it's
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: totally justified me telling these boys how very ashamed they
- 1:43:30Speaker 2: should be for being boys, because I feel ashamed for
- 1:43:33Speaker 2: being white sometimes when it's aesthetically pleasing to me, you know.
- 1:43:37Speaker 2: And that's the thing, Like, it's just they're doing it because.
- 1:43:43Speaker 3: They make.
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: Perceived weakness.
- 1:43:46Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a threat narrative. Yeah, well, it's also her
- 1:43:49Speaker 2: perceived virtue because she's very virtuous. She's like, yeah, she's
- 1:43:53Speaker 2: painting herself, you know, she is self harming for the
- 1:43:57Speaker 2: sake of being perceived to be more virtuous than everybody else,
- 1:44:01Speaker 2: except she really isn't self harming. She's just harming other
- 1:44:04Speaker 2: people because it's it's just it's meaningless to say, oh,
- 1:44:07Speaker 2: I feel guilty about my white privilege. Really, what are
- 1:44:10Speaker 2: you doing about it?
- 1:44:11Speaker 1: No?
- 1:44:11Speaker 2: Nothing, I just feel guilty. Oh warely that that's that's
- 1:44:17Speaker 2: very that's very not not useful. Your feelings, what whether
- 1:44:21Speaker 2: or not they're negative or positive, are not relevant to
- 1:44:24Speaker 2: actually changing problems. And if you're going to say this
- 1:44:27Speaker 2: is a problem, so all I'm going to do is
- 1:44:30Speaker 2: just marinate in my feelings not do something about it,
- 1:44:35Speaker 2: then yeah, you're just you're just self stimming. And then
- 1:44:39Speaker 2: the other thing is you're using yourself stimming to justify
- 1:44:42Speaker 2: harming other people. And that's the point. They use their
- 1:44:47Speaker 2: affectation of victimhood to justify harming the people we rely
- 1:44:51Speaker 2: on and men we rely on in our society to
- 1:44:54Speaker 2: continue to function. And I don't see why we need
- 1:44:58Speaker 2: these people, does anybody?
- 1:45:02Speaker 1: No?
- 1:45:02Speaker 2: Like, what are they there for? What are they there
- 1:45:06Speaker 2: for except to suck up money and harm people? But yeah,
- 1:45:14Speaker 2: it's that affectation of virtue that gives her justification to
- 1:45:18Speaker 2: shame everyone else. It's classic, And yeah, this is the
- 1:45:21Speaker 2: threat narrative they're trying to associate recognition of harms done
- 1:45:27Speaker 2: to buy these people, mostly to men and boys with
- 1:45:30Speaker 2: the manisphere, in order to throw it all out, to
- 1:45:34Speaker 2: delegitimate it and try to make boys ignore the reality
- 1:45:38Speaker 2: of their own eyes. It's despicable. Oh. Stephanie Westcott is
- 1:45:43Speaker 2: a lecturer in Humanities and Social Sciences, Monash University. Stephen
- 1:45:48Speaker 2: Roberts is a Professor of Sociology, School of Social Sciences,
- 1:45:51Speaker 2: Monash University. Incidentally, these people have never done an actual
- 1:45:55Speaker 2: day's work in their life. And I'm not even saying
- 1:45:58Speaker 2: that academics can't work. Academics can work if they're actually
- 1:46:05Speaker 2: doing something of benefit to someone, not just lying and
- 1:46:09Speaker 2: then taking and then putting it through like a statistics
- 1:46:12Speaker 2: computer to pretend like they're doing real work.
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:46:16Speaker 2: I'm not against thinking work obviously, but this these people aren't.
- 1:46:20Speaker 2: They don't. They don't work a day in their lives.
- 1:46:22Speaker 2: They make shit up and they pretend it's academically valuable
- 1:46:29Speaker 2: and then they lie to people. Okay, all right, do
- 1:46:34Speaker 2: you want to add anything. I think I really talked
- 1:46:37Speaker 2: a lot today. Maybe it's my frustration with word press.
- 1:46:40Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I I think I said what I wanted
- 1:46:45Speaker 1: to say. I did say a few things.
- 1:46:49Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's like people have said, you know,
- 1:46:52Speaker 2: how do you do this? How do you uh continue
- 1:46:56Speaker 2: with this work. I've had people like they say I
- 1:47:01Speaker 2: had to go because it was just so it so
- 1:47:02Speaker 2: hard to listen to. And I'm like, well, we've been
- 1:47:05Speaker 2: doing this for thirteen years. How hard do you think
- 1:47:07Speaker 2: it is? But the truth is that every time I get,
- 1:47:13Speaker 2: you know, like I'm tired of this bullshit. And I
- 1:47:16Speaker 2: actually blew up at Joseph Watson, Paul Joseph Watson because
- 1:47:24Speaker 2: there was this one clip where these pink ladies were
- 1:47:27Speaker 2: like and we have to deal with their own sex
- 1:47:29Speaker 2: pets in England? Why do we have to import more?
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: And I'm like, so you are insulting your own men
- 1:47:36Speaker 2: and what are you expecting from them to protect you?
- 1:47:40Speaker 2: And nobody think that no offense, but the conservatives to
- 1:47:44Speaker 2: say things like they don't call they do not call
- 1:47:46Speaker 2: women out for shit like that, Like maybe if you
- 1:47:51Speaker 2: want the protection of your own men, you should protect
- 1:47:55Speaker 2: them socially when it comes to all the censure and
- 1:47:58Speaker 2: condemnation they're getting from this, that's importing all these individuals.
- 1:48:03Speaker 2: And also you shouldn't be overtly insulting them like that,
- 1:48:08Speaker 2: and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of female
- 1:48:10Speaker 2: sex pests in the UK. Of course we cannot talk
- 1:48:13Speaker 2: about that at all, but anyway, so I'm like, this
- 1:48:16Speaker 2: is so aggravating because there really isn't a political there's
- 1:48:20Speaker 2: no home, there's no political home for just saying we
- 1:48:24Speaker 2: got to stop. We've got to stop blaming men, and
- 1:48:27Speaker 2: we start gotta start caring about their issues, and we've
- 1:48:30Speaker 2: got to stop separating them into freaking groups and just say, hey,
- 1:48:35Speaker 2: all of their issues all men, okay, yeah, and let
- 1:48:40Speaker 2: God sort out the remainder right, And it does get frustrating,
- 1:48:46Speaker 2: But then the website goes down and I have to
- 1:48:51Speaker 2: spend a day or a couple of days wrestling with
- 1:48:53Speaker 2: WU commerce or zapp here, And let me tell you
- 1:49:00Speaker 2: the existential horror of dealing with plugins and all of
- 1:49:08Speaker 2: this other crap and ridiculous help from AI bots. Now
- 1:49:15Speaker 2: that just the sheer pain and like it's nihilism, Like
- 1:49:21Speaker 2: like dealing with that crap just creates nihilism and it's
- 1:49:23Speaker 2: just just like a reset. And then I come back
- 1:49:26Speaker 2: to Men'sician, like, oh, yeah, that's not that bad. At
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: least I'm not wrestling with WordPress. So there you go.
- 1:49:33Speaker 2: That's my secret. Okay, so last chance, Brian for what?
- 1:49:39Speaker 1: No, I'm good, okay, good.
- 1:49:41Speaker 2: All right, feed the Badger dot com slash just the tip,

- 1:50:27Speaker 2: a look. Sorry, I've got to go through like I
- 1:50:31Speaker 2: got a billion tabs?
- 1:50:33Speaker 1: Uh is it?
- 1:50:36Speaker 2: Yeah? It is a super challenge. Okay, So the voles
- 1:50:39Speaker 2: need to be poked, and they have been poked. Has
- 1:50:44Speaker 2: it popped up?
- 1:50:47Speaker 1: No? No not yet. Just give it'll it'll be fine.
- 1:50:57Speaker 2: Yeah. The site is really slow too. I I put
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: in an update, so they should be sending an update
- 1:51:04Speaker 2: for the PHP. So it might be that that's making
- 1:51:07Speaker 2: everything go so damn slow. Anything yet, All right, what
- 1:51:14Speaker 2: are you doing site?
- 1:51:17Speaker 1: No?
- 1:51:19Speaker 2: Nothing yet, So I'm going to open this up because
- 1:51:23Speaker 2: I'm going to make sure we get to it. But
- 1:51:26Speaker 2: it's going to take a while, so no problem. Yeah, okay,
- 1:51:30Speaker 2: so feedsbadger dot com slash just the tip if you
- 1:51:33Speaker 2: want to send us a message. As soon as the
- 1:51:36Speaker 2: site gets updated. This should go faster.
- 1:51:37Speaker 3: I think.
- 1:51:39Speaker 2: Richard went through fun all of my test.
- 1:51:42Speaker 1: I don't know as far as I can. As far
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: as I know, it's it's all just magic.
- 1:51:49Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 1:51:50Speaker 1: It works or it doesn't work. There's no logic to
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: it besides what it seems.
- 1:51:56Speaker 2: It might just be. It might just be a oh
- 1:52:01Speaker 2: but I might actually just be it might just be
- 1:52:05Speaker 2: like five bucks, so with no comment, Oh yeah, it's
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: it's albatross.
- 1:52:13Speaker 1: Did you have a message.
- 1:52:16Speaker 2: There doesn't seem to be a message in there. You
- 1:52:18Speaker 2: might not have put a message in, So thank you
- 1:52:21Speaker 2: for the five bucks. I mean, we did criticize what
- 1:52:25Speaker 2: you were saying, So thank you for the five bucks.
- 1:52:28Speaker 2: Very much appreciated, didn't we. Oh no, that was Albert
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: Naita Ritcho never mind, Sorry, Albatross Okay, no, it's not
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: coming through. I I didn't see a comment albert Albatross.
- 1:52:42Speaker 2: So if you did, just put it through the actual Okay,
- 1:52:52Speaker 2: just put it through the actual. Uh, put it through

- 1:53:07Speaker 2: Badge dot com slash just the tip if you want
- 1:53:09Speaker 2: to send us a message. We are doing our monthly fundraiser.
- 1:53:11Speaker 2: It's getting pretty close to the end, so I think
- 1:53:13Speaker 2: we got like twelve days left. Feed the Badger dot
- 1:53:16Speaker 2: com slash support very much appreciated it if you help,
- 1:53:20Speaker 2: because I think this message is really critical. I feel
- 1:53:24Speaker 2: like the logic is really sound. We need to start
- 1:53:26Speaker 2: caring about the people who carry society, and if we don't,
- 1:53:30Speaker 2: we might just lose that society and that's not going
- 1:53:33Speaker 2: to be fun. I mean, it could be that we
- 1:53:35Speaker 2: just lose the institutions that do this bullshit and we
- 1:53:37Speaker 2: grow something better, which would be great, but presumably those
- 1:53:41Speaker 2: institutions should probably know they should also not ignore the
- 1:53:45Speaker 2: people who make things happen and make sure we all
- 1:53:49Speaker 2: have heating and lighting and electricity and everything, all right,
- 1:53:52Speaker 2: So feed the Badger dot com slash support to support
- 1:53:55Speaker 2: that message, and I'm going to hand it back to you, Brian.
- 1:53:57Speaker 1: Okay, Well, if you guys like this video, please hit
- 1:54:00Speaker 1: like subscribe if you're not already subscribed. The BELF notifications
- 1:54:04Speaker 1: oh came through.
- 1:54:06Speaker 2: I said that women is an activist demand a level
- 1:54:09Speaker 2: of perfection. I don't say it probably will never exist.
- 1:54:12Speaker 2: It's in the uh, it's in the chat. You're right.
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: Yeah, I've said that women, feminist and activist demand level
- 1:54:19Speaker 1: of perfection and comfort that probably will never live. No,
- 1:54:22Speaker 1: it can't exists. It's European. But they believe again, they
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: believe that if everyone, if everyone has the same vision
- 1:54:34Speaker 1: and they share in that vision, then it becomes real
- 1:54:38Speaker 1: because we got everybody to agree. And the problem with
- 1:54:40Speaker 1: that is it's an illusion. Like that's not it's like
- 1:54:44Speaker 1: the illusion of equality. There's no such thing. There's there's justice,
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: there's fairness, but there's no equality. That's not real. Men
- 1:54:51Speaker 1: and women are different, right, Different people are different. People
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: are different from themselves on different times of the day.
- 1:54:56Speaker 1: I'm not equal to myself in the morning. So like that,
- 1:54:59Speaker 1: that's and it's a and you might say, oh, that's pedantic,
- 1:55:01Speaker 1: but no, this is what these people really believe. This
- 1:55:04Speaker 1: is how they operate. This is what they operate under. Okay.
- 1:55:08Speaker 1: They are trying to construct a reality, and the only
- 1:55:13Speaker 1: way it works is if everyone participates. And that's impossible.
- 1:55:17Speaker 1: It's not just even if you think it's well intentioned,
- 1:55:20Speaker 1: it's not possible. And there are people who will legitimately
- 1:55:24Speaker 1: not go play along, and they'll exploit you because they
- 1:55:28Speaker 1: think they realize that you're being ridiculous. So yeah, I mean,
- 1:55:32Speaker 1: it's not just something that probably won't exist. It's a lie.
- 1:55:38Speaker 1: It can't exist. You can't have heaven on earth. That's
- 1:55:42Speaker 1: why it's a different place. Okay. Yeah, and they and
- 1:55:45Speaker 1: and they well it also it's utopian from the get go,
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: from level zero, and and this is the thing that
- 1:55:56Speaker 1: and they won't accept that because these people they have
- 1:56:00Speaker 1: known nothing but fear like they're afraid of men. They're
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: afraid of half the population. That's their whole world is
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: fearing the opposite sex. Even if even if they're like
- 1:56:13Speaker 1: you know, cynically just using all of this to make money,
- 1:56:16Speaker 1: which I know is true and secure themselves, but they're
- 1:56:19Speaker 1: terrified at the end of the day of like the
- 1:56:22Speaker 1: world because it's not the way they think it should be, okay,
- 1:56:26Speaker 1: and you know that's just I mean, yeah, it's not.
- 1:56:30Speaker 1: It's and it's gonna get everyone. It's getting people killed.
- 1:56:33Speaker 1: This vision, this lie, Well.
- 1:56:36Speaker 2: It's not utopia. Uh Is it utopia if you sacrifice
- 1:56:41Speaker 2: the well being, the autonomy, the mental health of half
- 1:56:49Speaker 2: the human race to achieve it? Like, is it utopia? If?
- 1:56:55Speaker 2: And that's maybe that's the existential horror of men's issues,
- 1:56:59Speaker 2: because men's issues give lie to their supposed utopia, which
- 1:57:04Speaker 2: justifies everything that they do. And I know that there
- 1:57:08Speaker 2: are a lot of women who are afraid of men,
- 1:57:10Speaker 2: but I'm not sure how much is real and how
- 1:57:11Speaker 2: much is just affected or how much is just hysteria
- 1:57:14Speaker 2: that they talk theirselves into. But ultimately that it's not
- 1:57:19Speaker 2: even an utopia, like it's it's like sacrificing half the
- 1:57:26Speaker 2: human race to gain your utopia, and not just sacrificing
- 1:57:32Speaker 2: them once, but turning them into a permanent slave under
- 1:57:35Speaker 2: class for your utopia. Is that a utopia? But what measure?
- 1:57:40Speaker 1: But yeah, no, if you if you like it, if
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: you suck it up and like it, then it works
- 1:57:47Speaker 1: that they don't. Yeah, like their comfort is more important
- 1:57:50Speaker 1: than yours. There is no real utopia like it all comes,
- 1:57:55Speaker 1: you know, with the price of like blood and death
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: and start and all that. But I mean they all
- 1:58:02Speaker 1: thought it was going in and these people are no different.
