researchers are still trying to invent politics that isn't gender

As usual, the right & their sympathizers have it backwards: it's feminists who thinks that boys, like girls, have the innate capacity to be good. That's why we want to hold boys accountable when they mess up. It's the right who associates maleness with ungovernable, ingrained negative behavior.

The problem isn't that young men are barraged with messages that they're awful, the problem is that the Tates sell the message: "you can be an evil selfish creep and get all the money, all the luxury, & endless access to sex & female attention, but being a good person is for losers & betas."

The message isn't "you're bad." It's "respect people." The problem is you believe being a boy is having a license to say/do anything to people without repercussions. Somehow there are men all over the world who are not experiencing a "brutal" time because they don't find respect to be difficult.

Related: children managed to horrifically bully each other just fine before the advent of the internet and smart phones. I'm not saying these are solely good developments or that they don't bring with them new problems. But they're also an easy way to absolve adults of responsibility.

When the IRS was wrongly accused of targeting the tax exempt status of conservative groups the nation's leading tax blog breathlessly ran coverage titled "IRS SCANDAL DAY X" for 3 years. Now Trump explicitly directs the IRS to deny tax exempt status of political enemies, and bupkes from that blog.

I wonder if “Trump thinks exchanging money for goods and services means you’re losing” stems directly from Trump’s career of taking people’s money for nothing in return. Running casinos, licensing his name for products he didn’t make, Trump U., fake charities, whatever crypto thing he’s running now

When an American farmer sells $1 million worth of soy to China, the farmer and the US are losing money. When an American farmer lets $1 million worth of soy rot in silos due to lack of customers, the farmer and the US are making money. Very simple. You all just don't understand business.

This is the moment. This is when everything that happens now became possible. I was stuck yelling about it to bewildered sixth graders: "this is a huge deal; why is no one treating it a huge deal???!!!"

Yes this is important. Trump's framing of material deprivation is focused on feminized material goods, which are seen as frivolous and dispensable.

One thing that jumped out at me in the Fetterman piece was the tidbit that every time he does something right-wing on Israel, his dad calls him and tells him how proud he is. Just think about all the damage white men with daddy issues are currently doing to this country.

every day there are new horrors for gender-marginalized people and women--trump going after the equal credit opportunity act, loss of body autonomy, exterminationist anti-trans attacks ramping up--and every single day we have to talk about "male loneliness" and "it's a brutal time to be a young man"
