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

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

When the vast majority of everyone other than said grifters et al offers boys nothing but contempt and prejudice, they make them easy pickings for the only people offering them something else, even if they're lying.

It's similar to the reason that a guy who never gets attention from women is likely to 'fall in love' and immediately develop a strong infatuation for the first woman to pay attention to him.

This, men are attracted by the Man-O-Sphere because everyone else says they don't matter.

God I'd love it if there was a Joe Rogan of the Left.

Critically, however, the "Joe Rogan of the left" will never, can never, and must never be engineered and groomed by the absolute unmitigated fucking cryptkeeper scumbags running the Democrat party.

Joe didn't used to be an alt right scum bag. But then his left leaning guests boycotted him for having right leaning guests. Leading to a situation where he only had right leaning guests....

It was a mistake for Kamala to turn down the Rogan interview
