Kick the bastard misogynist influencers off social media platforms and educate young men on having healthy relationships with others starting from school age. Or we can try the tired old idea of debating fascists and hope they act in good faith and defeat them with our kindly words.

underlying systemic issues that cause either of those problems

Systemic issues is a very vague concept. What causes young men to latch onto misogyny. Poverty? Mental health issues? Lack of meaningful employment options? Or do we circle back to blaming it on women and feminism again?

1000% yes let’s do something about it materially. We aren’t nearly tough enough on this poison infecting men’s minds.

You’re presumably middle aged, and you’re married with a family. You’re not the person the meme is targeting. Way to ignore the first 3 panels.

Should we also show “empathy” to Klansmen who joined up because they claim to feel disenfranchised by society? Give them a pat on the back? No, we tell them why their belief system is backwards and help them turn away from it.

Your idea of empathy is why the Andrew Tates of this world can thrive. Worthless sentimentality and obsession with civility rather than seriously challenging toxic ideology. It’s the liberal way.

Why don’t you ask the OP what it means?

The clown man is an incel/misogynist, hence the top panel “women are dishwashers”. Objectification of women > increased social isolation > blaming it on a male loneliness epidemic caused by feminists rather than assessing his own beliefs and behaviours.

I think people have completely misunderstood this meme and are reading it as “haha male loneliness” rather than a meme taking a shot at incel self-inflicted misery.

I’m basically claiming nothing of the sort pal. You know what else is an epidemic? Violence against women and girls, fuelled by far-right social media influencers preying on young men. Inceldom is a disease and treating these people like they’re just poor victims of societal ills is bullshit. They know what they’re doing, they encourage and glorify mistreatment of women.

I’m simply saying that finding companionship in life doesn’t need to be a whole field of research and analysis for young men. Get the basics right, and you can find a partner.

To hell with the kid gloves treatment of bad actors. You want to help young men, tell them the truth about the people they look up to and give them proper guidance.

Oh no, hate against stupid misogynistic and anti-feminist talking points. How awful.

You are the clown in the meme.

Get the damn basics right. Look after your personal hygiene, dress well, smell good, smile, show respect and practice good manners. Congrats, you are now significantly more desirable.

Go outside and stop blaming women for everything.

Hit too close to home huh?

Boring lessons are pretty big distractors. I seen kids fall asleep and daydream long before smartphones were even a thing. Make learning fun and the kids will engage. Confiscating their possessions is a hostile move that never goes down well.

I’m still not convinced that this is the answer to helping kids concentrate & learn more in school.

Neither party will ever willingly give up the two party system, as they both benefit from it. At some point Americans need to start backing third parties or everything will just continue to go in circles indefinitely.

It’s called Lynx in the UK but it still counts!

People view a lot of things with rose tinted glasses. COD lobbies were fucking shite. That’s why I played solo with everyone muted.

If the USA’s ability to destabilise the world reduces with Trump’s presidency then I suppose that’s a silver lining to the fascist hellscape he’s creating

Fuck rainbow capitalism

I’d probably laugh at someone who tried to blackmail me with pictures of my dick. I’m a guy, it can’t ruin my life lmao

Feels like there’s no hope for the future these days.

Same. Every album and playlist just went blank one day and that was it.

Deleted xManager today and patched Spotify with revanced. xManager has probably saved me well over £200 on a Spotify subscription over the past couple of years so I can’t say anything bad about them. Respect.

(Same goes for Revanced for YouTube as well!)
