Oh absolutely, it’s not that I have a problem with. It’s more the need that these losers have to lionise everything they do to the point of parody. Everything is framed in these grand terms of war and civilisation. They can’t just be having a rough day at work, they’re warriors fighting battles. They can’t just go to the gym to keep fit and improve themselves, they’re alpha males holding up the ideals of Western civilisation. They can’t just settle down and raise a family, they’re continuing the proud legacy of their forefathers and upholding family values. You get the picture.
It’s such a naked attempt to avoid anything that might be in the slightest bit emasculating and it’s honestly pathetic. They’re terrified of being perceived as anything other than a tough macho man that can only communicate through violence and threats. They think it makes then look like strong men when it actually does the opposite. Strong-willed people don’t talk like this.
Are you saying this because you are aware of that guy worldview (maybe you looked into him) or did you manage to infer all this from a single tweet?
Like, I agree about the substance if we are talking about the manosphere. But it seems a bit quick to assume this guy is part of “them” just from this, no?
“All the battles he fought that day” sir you work in an air conditioned office with a coffee machine five feet from your desk
Honey, can you come nurture and restore my energy? I’ve been sending emails all day.
That may be true, but office work definitely has challenges of its own.

Yeah, that is definitely quite silly.

I’m pretty familiar with this guy. This is what he’s like pretty much all the time. He’s very much part of the manosphere.
