    I’d put a lot more blame on the grifters purposely aiming to radicalise boys

      Let’s not lie & pretend as if the “radicalization” (as you decided to call it) was created in a vaccuum

      By grifters you mean the only people willing to say that it’s okay for men to be men? Gee, I wonder why young men go to them rather than the ones telling them to man down.

          The point is that who do you expect the young men to go to? The only people willing to speak up for them are the types of Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, Jocko Willink, David Goggins etc. Can you name a male role model you approve of?

        It’s not okay to harass women. Stop defining that as a male feature. Gross.

          Don’t act as if I said somethig I didn’t only because it’s then easier to argue against.

            The shark was harassing her.

            She said stop in animal language.

            If you are personalizing this: you are the problem. You are not a victim.

              Lmao at “The shark was harassing her”.

              These sharks have brains the size of a pea, they only acted on instinct, the male because he felt a procreation need and the female because sharks see everything as food that moves.

              Humans are wildly different, we have recreational thoughts and can restrain our actions. That‘s good because males are on average much stronger than females and would absolutely force themselves on them if they had no moral compass.

        What pushes people to grifters is reading endless, pointless internet arguments where neither side is compromising.

        This is how we all learned to socialize, in bullshit threads like this, and this is why all you young people are so fucking lonely.

      Radicalisation on one side always leads to radicalisation on the other, ending up with both sides using the other’s ridiculous fringe ideas as justification for their own.

        And it all starts from people reading the endless, pointless, contention-filled threads like this, where two sides are arguing bitterly about nonsense, not giving in an inch, and not resolving anything.

        What do you mindless drones out there think this is doing to your brain? Has anyone of any gender been helped by reading any of these stupid arguments about sharks and bears?

        The answer is no. The younger generation who was raised by these terrible posts and terrible, wastes-of-time arguments and persecution olympics is desperately, chronically ALONE.

        So yah, lets all just keep stirring this soup of loneliness as we all train ourselves to stop socializing like humans and view everything through the lense of internet arguments. I’m sure it will start to show positive impact annnnny day now.
