So, 2/3 of young men are risking to become incels, right? Because it is hard to imagine a young girl who is looking for a partner with hyperfocus on his own masculinity as well as a partner, who portraits himself as victim? That is sad...
That wording you did there is perfect, that's the exact kind of precise wording people need to be hearing, not this other relational wording junk.
Masculine influencer. Another masculine influencer. Not going for "male influencer" here that's just the top of my head list of people who a) happen to end up in my youtube feed and b) look really cool to pubescent boys. Silverback energy: Big, strong, just, kind.
That statistics is bullshit that would be 66% of all young men
Yes, so you can see how that would be a problem
I guarantee 100% of ravens are getting together for a human murder party. Do you see how the ravens would be a problem?
It depends how broad their "masculine influencer" definition is...
I think whether it actually matters would depend more on if they're consuming "masculine influencer" content exclusively , without any concept of other world views.
Sounds reasonable.
FD Signifier and Noah Samsem are "masculine influencers" too, this is too broad of a definition when there's a lot of dudes doing it in a healthy way too.
Hasan Piker as well
It's worth diving into what they are classifying in this influencers group. They even point out that some of it offers helpful and genuine support. But it sounds like they would even consider a men's therapy or coaching business in this group, or even something like that Mankind Project. I am just guessing but that kind of group is a world away from the typical toxic manosphere stereotype.
