What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?
  • So funny thing is republicans say the same thing. There is a famous quote "“Conservatism is progressivism driving the speed limit.”"

    I would argue the left needs to take some responsibility with getting distracted in the culture war and losing site of the working class. Look at Bernie you can go back to 2016 and see people saying that bernie was a bro candidate and not progressive enough compared to hillarly on insert x wedge issue here

  • What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?
  • I am going to be honest, I think women need to be a a part of this. We are used to being right in regards to gender conflict because usually we are but one thing I agree with men on is that every woman says they want men to share their feelings more but many women lose respect for a man they see as weak.

    Bell Hooks talks a lot about this so you can go read her.

  • What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?
  • the issue with that is with less women dating period since less women want to settle. Would that work ?

    There just isn't a gaurentee or even a good enough chance that being a progressive or supporting progressive politics will get you a girlfriend or wife so would this kind of incentive system work ?

    If you want the carrot and stick to work you have to give the carrot.

    Telling women to just date random progressive guys for the cause even ignoring the fact it's not ery ethical. I just don't think you could convince enough women to do it for it to work

    What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?
  • I think housing is another policy that benefits young men a bit more.

    Young women now move out of their parents house at higher rates for a reasons.

    They are more likely to go to college so they can live in dorms.

    A thriving sex work economy allows us to just afford it.

    A woman can find a boyfriend easier to help split the cost of rent

  • What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?

    I think progressives never thought about this because we banked on immigration and demographic change allowing us to win culturally and electorally but the issue is immigrants tend to be overwhelmingly male, that is how Trump won actually he won over a lot of Hispanic,Black,Asian and indigenous men who feel humiliated by a new culture, economy and world.

    So what can we do rhetorically and policy wise to win more young men over ?

    I think more people especially men should consider forgiving their cheating partner
  • the post on the autism forum I explicitly say I was a woman in that post. I am a woman with autism

    also about the fleshlight, that was for my boyfriend I mentioned in the post I bought it for him and bought the dildo for me to use on of. I didn't want him to feel left out so I got him it.

  • I am a late bloomer Autistic woman, could me getting back with my old boyfriend be a fixation ?

    So a little background, I have dated a boy for a long time and then we took a break because of mistakes I made and I'm just going to be honest me not being a great boyfriend.

    I have wanted to get back together with him so bad I have thought about it and what I want to say to hi and mapped out conversations in my head with him thought about how I will say sorry and make it right.

    Everyone literally everyone says just move on just move on but no I want to make it right and make it work.

    Could this be an Autistic fixation.

    Which of these countries did NOT arm Apartheid South Africa ? I would assume you are a big boy and recognize the flags, Sorry for the weird flag formatting I made this on my phone .
  • None of you got the meme so I will explain it.

    The correct answer is the United States of America.

    The whole point is that The USA seems to be the least likely as America especially in the cold war was a racist capitalist country so you would think they would love the racist capitalism of apartheid SA but no actually.

    Israel with their never again mantra you would think would oppose the White nationalism of SA but their arms partnership of the apartheid government is very well known especially with the nukes.

    The Soviet Union and China. That is surprising but no these countries did actually do arms trade with South Africa. The Soviet Union worked with SA for jet engine development and had this complicated scene with SA, the GDR and South America to get guns to them that were on paper sold to other countries. De beers actually had permits to sell Siberian diamonds since they had gotten so good at diamond smuggling. Same with China.

    The joke is that everyone will pick either the Soviet Union or China and think the USA armed Apartheid South Africa but no they are the one country on the list to not do so

  • Dozens of US warplanes are on their way to the Middle East immediately after Trump's speech
  • Marco rubio said the us would not enter the war but trump is implying that he was behind the trikes and it's punishment for iran not agreeing to a deal.

    Remember when his supporters were anti war and made a big deal about ukraine and how ukraine costed to much and would risk nuclear war ?

    Trump tore up the nuclear deal saying he would have a better one, there is no better one he endedu p basically going back to the origina ldeal because iran said no because the ycan't trust him

    the idea that trump is the master of deals might be one of his dumbest lies and that is saying a lot

    what would it take for you to take back a partner who cheated on you ?

    Especially for men but even women too.

    like with how much more men statistically benefit from relationships and how hard dating is for younger men I just don't buy they would break off a relationship with a woman who cheated on them. Especially if she gave them a good deal because not only is fending a girlfriend harder but women just won't put up with mediocrity anymore we only date if we are interested we have our own money (young women out earn young men), our emotional support structure is better and the orgasm gap is real most men don't measure up.

    So would you seriously rather be single then settle ? Every man says this but looking at the data it seems none of them mean it.
