@@leonardgebbia2615 It used to just be in the colleges. Uneducated women still tend to be level headed. What has changed is NPR and the constant misandry coming out of Hollywood.
The entire culture for the last 10 years has been hammered with a feminist message that men eventually got fed up with. It’s ruined the entertainment industry and made everybody on edge about getting cancelled. My opinion
Agreed. And I'm a woman. And I care about all the men in my life, and I don't want feminism to get so extreme that a women will always have power over men and be allowed to abuse that power. It's time to bring some balance into this.
That is silly. We are verrrry well aware that the toxic and violent men in the country are not our allies, never were and never will be and most importantly don't WANT to be our allies. That is why they voted for Trump.
Allies? Leftist women have gone bunkers since the election... They're admonishing women to leave men, leave your marriages and stay single, blah blah blah.
You CAN NOT scold, mock, mortify, or humiliate a person just because of their race and/or gender and expect them to support you. They will tell you to get lost.
@@IndigoldenTrump is the farthest thing from a misogynist,He is a rich man who's slept with more women than most men,If you sleep with lots of women,You develop a sense of appreciation and protectiveness for them regardless of what they think of you,I'm 81,Trump is a typical archtype of a man who's pro border security which saves women from being assaulted by illegals,He's anti trans which is a mockery of women and the female form and reduces women to their appearance,He'll keep young girls away from young men pretending to be girls in their bathrooms,Sports,He is very pro women

The male vote wasn't so much about "who likes me," it was more about "who doesn't hate me." It was also about the Dem's obsession with race, gender, and sex. You win elections with policy, not identity politics.
Well, no, you don't. You win elections by hitting the really big emotional buttons that will propel people to vote for you, not them. Simply put, Trump and his team knew this, and knew it would be doubly important in an election where the races for President, Senate and House could go either way by tight margins. Harris had a mountain to climb with the late start, didn't fully take advantage of her debate win, and appeared to be advised by her team to play it as safe as possible in the home stretch rather than go for Trump's throat. The supreme irony is that a little toxic masculinity might have won her the election.
The republicans only platform is identiity poltics and culture war. They are bereft of policy. It's why Trump was so easily destroyed in the debate. So clearly policy doens't win you elections and never has if you've ever read any of the data about U.S elections at every level.
you ask "what policy did Trump or any other lying Republican ever present during campaign 2024" ?? They said " Trump bragged about having a concept of a policy but we all know how he lies" ??
Young male opinions have stayed pretty stagnant for the last 20 years. Women have gone +20 to the left during that time. It is young women who have been radicalized, not men.
Considering young male opinions 20 years ago in a lot of spheres was that “sexual harassment is just for lols, why so srs,” I’m not sure what you’re saying paints an especially good picture of young men either.
@@talisa222 We get it, your interactions with men is through vogue articles and movies. We should all be like women, who increasingly go to therapy and are on record anti-depressants, right? please, never change. More and more men will just go away from your side

Which is sad because it shows how self-absorbed and navel-gazing most Americans are. When I vote for president, I vote for the candidate I think will be best for the country as a whole, not who I think will be best for me as an individual. Americans need to start being less individual oriented and more community oriented. We need to stop being so focused on our self-interests that we're willing to throw millions of other people under the bus just to get what we want. You saw this problem with our culture during the pandemic, when a lot of Americans were unwilling to sacrifice and follow simple rules, whereas people in the Nordic countries and East Asian countries like Japan, South Korea and Taiwan did what was best for their communities rather than what was best for themselves.
This is the “woke” mentality. They make movies people don’t want to see but blame the public for not liking their products. They amplify the need of 1 percent of the population, pushing their concern into our daughter’s sport but if you disagree it’s not their fault it’s the 99 percent fault. SMH.
As a young black man living in California, it doesn't get Bluer than that. I've been a member of the Democratic party until this year, when I switched to "Independent." I'm not going to lie; the identity politics and political correctness from certain circles of the party are EXHAUSTING. Now I'm not going to switch Republican because they have members who are Neo-nazis or Proud Boys, but as a working-class, straight black man, I definitely feel like the Democratic party has left us behind and taken our voice/votes for granted.
Single white woman here - they didn't listen to me either. No way to contact the party or the candidates at all. I even volunteered on the Harris campaign. Still couldn't even get a message to her about the needs of smaller and independent family farms - needs that could easily be met by the. USDA that would make our farms more profitable. Needs as simple as more veterinarians and federal meat inspectors at small locker plants so we can sell our poultry over state lines. We all need mire access to communicate with the leaders of this country.
Hey Chad, you sound intelligent and thoughtful. So if I can ask you: I see catch-phrases in your post, ID politics, correctness, etc. But I'd truly love to hear SPECIFIC things that Kamala said that chased you away. I'm working class straight white guy. And I didn't hear anything pitched specifically for me. But I didn't take that to mean they left me behind. I know the Dems have always been better for working class of any color, since the 1930s. I'm also sick of far left wokeness. But it's still better than far right militia.
Your concerns are valid, but the reality of the political dynamics that comes to a choice between the lesser of the two evils is what matters ultimately.
the only straight men who get shamed by Dems are those who truly deserve it. AKA - the racist, homophobic and misoginstic ones - other wise knows as MAGA men.
@@Melinamiu007um... maybe start watching other media outlets and try getting out of your echo chamber. Yes there's plenty of misogynists in the world but misandry is very much a real thing as well.
I am a woman and I love my husband, son, son-in-law, father, brothers, and male friends. Don’t these men-haters have men in their lives? Do they hate their fathers and sons? A stupid stance they take.
I spent a lot of time on Threads this past week, just watching what females are saying. Feminists are leaving their families, disowning sons, cutting off parents...Democrat feminists are anti-family.
A lot of them are fake. They'll say things like "all men" but also "not my dad, brother, uncle" or "not the men I know" etc. Meaning they don't actually believe it, but it's the bandwagon thing to do and say so they do so.
@@toby2581 yeah I think it started as a niche in the mid 2000s on places like myspace, tumblr etc then it grew and after 2012 when the iphone was out full scale and social media was popping up it just started to gradually balloon and balloon. Women are more agreeable so a lot of them just took radical feminist presuppositions as truisms like the 70 cents to the dollar narrative etc. Yes it was 70 cents to the dollar in aggregate but it is hard skewed by men at the top and doesn't take into account that men will do hard labor, move for positions, work more hours, etc. Men are overrepresented at the bottom too 3/4 homeless are men they also kill themselves 5x more than women and men 18-30 make less than women 18-30 now. I don't think that women doing better is a bad thing but a lot of it as at the cost of men which I disagree with and so do mothers of the 7 million working age NEETs in the US. Democrats have to completely revise their messaging if they want to compete. Young women will not like it but they have to do it if they want to compete with the donald trump party
Don’t worry they’ll assign you to a demographic segment based on your identity and race and decide you’re not a critical constituency in a battleground state
LMAO that is what Trump and right wing media say! So sure based on Trump and right wing manosphere that is all you need to know. Don't leave your bubble and actually talk to someone.
Sadly low income, uneducated men feel that caring about other people's rights portends hating them. Conservative men are very insecure in their masculinity and view female equality and female dominance as the same thing. The Christian bible makes it very, VERY clear that men are superior to women and that women should be subservient to men at all times. As women are graduating college at much higher rates than conservative men and earning more money than conservative men, these men see that their authority is being stripped away. They blame DEI, liberals, those with a college or above degree, etc. for their inferiority complex and toxic insecurity. It is no different than short men hating and resenting tall men for getting all the female attention.
Not all men, just the majority who don't call themselves 'women'. The ones who DO call themselves women enjoy a special status among Loony Lefties - they prioritise them over everyone, including actual women.
They basically destroyed the popular culture of 80s, 90s, even 2000s. Most of the excellent movies made then are impossible to be made nowadays because of ridiculous political correctness. You can not make even a decent comedy or parody movie, because you may offend some snowflake. The music .... basically disappeared as pop culture... I am sorry, but I don't have any idea about Taylor Swift... I vaguely can remember only one song from her about "shake it"... There is nothing wrong with shaking, I am all for shaking... but only one shaking and nothing more.... Sorry, you lost me.
Society doesn’t care for young men, nor do republicans. At least republicans don’t berate them constantly. Glad this issue is being noticed despite the outcome of the election
What is it about young men's hard lives that everyone is forgetting and not caring about? Genuine question. What are you referring to that needs to change?
@@ZiliaVing Nothing legal will change that, it is biological. Most women want to reproduce the same set of men because they want their children to share the top men's attributes. When 80% of the women want 20% of the men, that leaves 80% of the men only visible to the bottom 20% of the women. Society will inevitably allow the top 20% of men to get an inordinate amount of the resources. This is why we send men to war, have them collect garbage, dig in mines, drill for oil, etc. This is why when you ask women would you rather clean septic tanks for 100K a year or work for free in an NGO, they choose NGOs, where most men would work at 100K a year doing almost anything. Most men, biologically, are expendable - something we are both subconsciously and consciously aware of. Only when highly repressive religious structures, either implemented by authority or through social norms, are placed on women will most men even have a shot at reproducing, thus securing their value to society. Societies based on democratic laws and subjective ethics will always undervalue men because reproduction undervalues most men. Reproductive fitness is the governing dynamic of evolved beings. You cannot mask that biology if your societal structures are based on human desire.
@@ZiliaVing There are way more educated women than men. Since educated women would rather die than go out with uneducated men, it leaves about 20% of men without mates. Educated women can go up the age brackets, not men. That's one serious problem discussed by NYU Professor Scott Galloway. Another problem is that innovation drives American GDP. The salaries in the innovation industry are high but you need at minimum an undergrad diploma. High paying jobs in the industrial sector are rare and the social stigma even worst. Harris did not address one time such economical and educational discripencies. In fact, she only said that she will support "good schools", which means either expensive private schools or public schools in great neighborhoods, where the differences in educational achievements are not as evident. That's about as bad as it gets.
The Democrats were deluded by their own progressive propaganda, effectively saying that men should be more like women. If they keep pushing DEI like this, they'll be wiped out in 4 years.
@@stephenlee5144so the young male problem is that they can't find dates? Do they think voting conversative will change that? That we'll suddenly or even over time transition into a society where they'll be assigned a mate? Is that what young males want?

What were you trying to say that was taking for granted or unheard? What part of your life would be heard or taking into consideration by the new President and his new administration? You emphasized being a straight male and being taken for granted as a straight male. What policy or policies were at the intersection of your sexual orientation and your gender that caused you to be unwelcome? Could you elaborate on and attach some details to the nebulousness of your comment? Or better said; could you offer some specificity to the generic nature of your comment? Just a curious viewer from London, England, United Kingdom.
It's a damn shame too, because Democrats offer no solutions, while the Republicans offer all the wrong ones. With no major player to challenge them, many men assume that the Republicans are right about everything when it comes to their problems.
@@jewulo LOL Yeah let's talk about "intersectionality"! You are totally clueless about the loss. Get your head out of your sociology textbook and look at your positions.
He's certainly right in terms of the lack of messaging to men, but it's not an oversight. They actively hate men. You're not going to put any effort into messaging to people you hate.

Is this how we want to set up our future politics when instead of trying to educate and inform our young people to vote based on policies, we recommend more political power to the likes of Joe Rogan, a low-informed failed comedian?

Once marriage rates get all the way down where they belong, I think we will see women's needs taking precedence. I give it about twenty years, the marriage rates are dropping as we speak
They abandoned women! Women no longer have sex-based provisions in the US. The re-write of Title 9 caused 26 states to sue the administration. Women are SCREAMING for their rights back and it has fallen on deaf ears. Being a woman is not a hate crime. The pernicious obfuscation of language led to a complete reversal of human rights.
@@msvulcanspockhe said feminist circles and media. I haven't heard anything positive about men in those areas as long as I've been alive. Maybe young men are forging their own paths? That could mean theyll be your direct competitors rather than allies? If the trend continues who knows what the future will hold?
@@msvulcanspock This whole argument makes me want to barf. Patriarchy is a system THEY'VE set up and benefitted from and it no longer works.

Some great points but Tim Walz just doesn't appeal to young men. His fake football story, his fake Tiananmen Square story, his fake military background just all don't resonate with men and when you throw in the zestiness that he showed whenever out in public and demonstrated incompetence (being a knucklehead is not a positive self assessment from someone running for VP) he just doesn't come across at all manly. It didn't help that he just got absolutely annihilated by Vance in the debate, they basically hid him from that point on as he'd been utterly exposed. If anything, Kamala was the more masculine of the Democrat candidates. It's funny that telling 50% of the voter base "we don't need or want you" and "you're toxic" and "the patriarchy" doesn't work. Especially when young men are doing worse by pretty much every single metric then the women.
Tim Walz can't win, he's way too anti 2A to win enough states. He made a mess out of Minnesota, too. And he's just too awkward. Making an ad with him trying to load that shotgun sure backfired.
Democrats tactics to get mens vote were a joke. "Vote Kamala or your a misogynist" or "Vote Kamala so your girlfriend can get an abortion". Nothing to help men.
I think you missed the part where Republicans use "performative masculinity." There's nothing less masculine than blaming everyone else for your problems.
This guest nailed it, people are not algorithms, they can hold 2 or 3 truths at the same time: may not like some aspects of Trump, but like his message, etc. Why do all the Moms dealing with the education system on behalf of their sons notice these issues, but the Dems don’t ?
Perhaps they're getting paid to take a dive. Or maybe they just got legitimately outsmarted by people who believe in Jewish space lasers and lizard people. I lean toward the former. And, Google, if you would desist with your idiotic "corrections," I'd have a lot less editing to do.
Moms, Teachers and Dems know the issues, it is a problem that Republicans won't accept extra funding for their states or vote against proposals to improve educations. It is not a lack of awareness. It is the Republicans blocking solutions, which gives them a group of angry young men to exploit.
I would also say that woke, identity and gender politics were some of the other Achilles' heels for the Democrats. They mistakenly assumed that Black and Hispanic voters shared these values. Democrats embraced wokism and began to refer to Latinos/Hispanics as "Latinx" - a term that the Latinos/Hispanic community was never consulted on and, in fact, hated.
Could you please define ‘wokism’? To my mind that is a pejorative term without specific meaning only wielded by rightwingers to mock and disparage what passes for left-progressive policy.

Another issue is the DEI initiatives in corporate America that are discriminating against young white men. There have been a number of anonymous polls of hiring/HR managers in US and roughly 50% admit to being directed by their execs to discriminate against white men, and in some cases men in general. These policies on the surface are aimed to right historic injustices against minorities and women, and they may do so, but in the end they also disenfranchise young men, who are already falling behind in academics and in large urban centers earning on average less than young women. And these policies spearheaded by democrats further disenfranchise them.
@@claesvanoldenphatt9972 Well, if you think it is a pejorative term you may be right. But it is well deserved. Woke-ism it is not progressive. It is divisive, not uniting people.

@@Quietstorm9 I've been bumping into people I never would've thought would've voted Toxic MAGA, but they did. I've managed to not get into arguments but to just ask them a few questions. No matter what I say, they scoff or chuckle and say, "That's not true." As in Trump has always been consistent in his positions, 'unlike the liberal Democrats.'' So I ask, what about accusing Obama of being born in Kenya? "He never said that. Com'on." It's like talking to members of a cult. I suggest they stop watching Fox News and see if their thinking changes. They all claim to follow other news, but never say what it is. And if they don't have a dazed look they're snarky bigots. I'm really tired of all these 'Experts' with their 'explanations.' Trump reached out to... no they appealed to fear, bigotry, and repeatedly lied. MAGAs believe the U.S. is in a deep financial crisis when in fact we're richer than ever -- it's just the top 10% gets almost all of the increased wealth we all produce, and the corporations keep raising prices on everything.
This election had nothing to do with economics. No one is more fiscally conservative and affected by inflation and unemployment than black folks. And we voted overwhelmingly for Harris. This is about people feeling comfortable with a certain type of culture in America and for whatever reason, feeling a guy who tanked the economy and mishandling a pandemic is the one to put in charge.
@@geraldineclarke5434 If the left can't even have a discussion about the problems facing young men without including women in the conversation -- I'd say that's part of the problem. When Roe v Wade was overturned everyone on the left went on offense, no one felt the need to run it past the men first. They just sprang into action, because they care about women's issues. I don't think they even want to acknowledge that men have issues too, much less address those issues.
@@geraldineclarke5434 well, maybe for nuanced counter points . . . but, if toxic masculinity and attitudes of younger gen Z male voters are the topic . . . ? I mean, if the topic was reproductive rights or child-bearing, OK . . . but, that wasn't the topic for this video . . . maybe for subsequent, follow-up video to expand on this one . . . 💙
I think part of his point was that it wasn't necessarily a conflict between genders but that the potus-elect was the candidate who at least made it sound like he had a plan for them. As he stated, it's not that they didn't support reproductive rights. It's that it wasn't a priority. What often gets overlooked is that in the 50s when jobs for non-college were in abundance, labor unions were 30% of the workforce. Also, there were housing subsidies that social scientists say led to the baby boomers by making ordinary men more attractive. But in recent decades men have been ingrained with the idea of a fabled "bootstrap" tech hero economy where individuality is championed, and the role of public investment is to be shunned as crutches for weakness. So, not only are they not getting the help they need and deserve, but they've been shamed into believing that asking for help conflicts with masculine values.
Social media is tearing us apart. I can't imagine that the healing process can even begin as long as social media continues to be everyone's North Star.
As corporations and oligarchs amass wealth and power ordinary people turn on one another hoping to salvage their dignity. A living wage for both women and men would alleviate many tensions. Instead, we are left voting on vibes.
Conservatives haven't won any fair elections as far as I'm aware. They gerrymander and give more voting points to conservative rural voters. They rig it in front of us, so what are they doing behind our backs? Republicans rig more because they have most the money, power and corruption on their side....and that's what the left is up against.
When you vote dont look at the color, race, looks, sex. Look at their ability, leadership and what they will offer. Kamala said" nothing comes to my mind". Election was decided at that moment. People did not wanted another 4 more years of Biden/Harris administration.
If you were listening to all the good things she was saying during her campaign i heard a clear message! Better healhcare elder care childcare money for down payment more building of homes 50,000 in tax breaks for new businesses. She said she was going to work to address and tackle price gouging and also deal with the border. I think Biden did a great job even with inflation due to the pandemic. It was a worldwide problem not just in the U.S. Trump had nothing and spewed hate and racist rhetoric and incoherent nonsense. He caused the horrible situation by his incompetence handling the pandemic. He committed an insurrection and tried to overthrow the government. How could this be a get out of jail card for him??? Insanity!!!
that's what prompted me not to bother voting--I could not abide that (or Trump) so I stayed home. My whole county is sold blue but my state went red anyway so my vote would not have mattered either way, but yeah "nothing I would change" was a real boner killer.
Why don't the Democrats just accept that Trump is an individual and his behavior doesn't have anything to do with "performative masculinity." Are men allowed to just be humans without being lumped into identify boxes and stereotypes?
If they get stereotyoed them that way because they BEHAVE that way. If they want to be seen differently, they should present themselves in a different fashion. There are plenty of men in this country who don't get sterotyped in any negive manner and that is because they engage with the world in respectful and intelligent ways. And not one of those men voted for Trump, that is for darn sure!
My favorite quote on this comes from none other than James Carville. When telling Bill Kristol about the "white, straight male problem" that Democrats have, James said, "If you listen to NPR for two weeks, you wouldn't know we even exist!"
Not quite true, but there are a lot of women on NPR. Catching up after thousands of years is apparently really grating for those who happen to be alive at this time. It will be good if/when things balance out.
I have been in the manosphere since 2003. Back then we were expressing our concerns about the issues we were facing. We were derided by the women, and their simps, white knights, and manginas. We warned them that if our concerns went unaddressed they would not like the results. Fast forward. A few weeks ago Smerconish had a poll question for his viewers. "Do you think the issues that men are facing is important?" 52 percent of the audience responded "NO". Do we have your attention now?
Being an incel; is a private life matter, sorry. And while I am sure it is indeed difficult, it's not a legit public problem that needs to be addressed by politics or by anyone other than you and a qualified therapist. But yes, you got my attention now for sure. Fighting a Fascist govt takeover will do that to a gal. However, most intellectually sound women are still NOT going to sleep with you and now you also all have the literally crosshairs of our scopes trained on you- for self defense reasons. So, if making yourselves even less attractive to the general female population than you already were before 11/5/24 was the goal- mission fully and permanently accomplished.
Why don't you men try to make this world a better place then? Because punishing women is not going to help. Women have been discriminated since forever, if you want women to pay attention to your needs, maybe you should pay attention to theirs?
Also, we don't know what problems you are facing. You men need to speak up more! Not with each other, in hiding, but openly!! 🙂 Don't hate on women, do something constructive about it instead.
They should have got the bears to vote for them😂 The number of times the Democratic liberals said they Don't need a man. Why are they complaining that the people they don't want didn't vote for them..
I’m a gay Trump voter, there are a few of us lol. He’s right , my straight , male friends would say, I have no problem with gay guys but the dems have a problem with me.
Ya one benefit of the increased progressiveness is that it affects both parties. Progressives online attack conservatives for being discriminatory, but it feels outdated. Nowadays I generally see progressives online constantly "othering" groups of people while the conservatives take the stance of not caring about anything besides perceived competence.
There is nothing the dems hate more than gay Trump voters, women Trump voters and black Trump voters. They are traitors to the virtue signal elites. It's hilarious
Wow, they still don't get it. 'we talked about manufacturing jobs, look how we're talking to you'. Men are not _just_ manufacturers in a servant underclass to women.
You can be alone, then. No amount of political power will convince women to date you. If you're too good to humble yourself to women, then have fun by yourself.
Tim Waltz only set out a positive vision for trans men/women. Hence the rather derogatory title Tampon Tim. Perhaps unfairly but it epitomised the complete lack of attention given to young men's issues. One being - they don't want their children aborted , they are not racist, they are struggling academically, they are being left behind ...
Plenty of men, across the age and socio - eco spectrum are are not racist, etc. etc. That said, 100% of the ones who ARE voted for Trump. They are MAGA precisely because they are those things. Not just men either. Ever person who voted for Trump is one, or at the very least "ok" with it on some level. Which makes them either morally bankrupt, brainwashed or stupid. Or some combo of three. My money is most of MAGA falls into the combo category. Which means that there is hope for many of them to become good humans (again) once they leave MAGA behind.
Are they though? Are young men being so left behind? What are men's issues? Also keep in mind that a lot of men will suffer from having to take care of a child that was not supposed to be born too. Abortion ban is impacting men's lives almost just as much as women's.

They used that moment as a way to express their cathartic resement instead of trying to offer an alternative place for these men to go and feel heard and welcomed, the feminists of yesteryear would have been jumping for joy at the opportunity to directly shrink the size of that toxic group but instead many in the modern setting just spewed the very toxic additudes and jaded resement that drives new comers away, again handing the right their talking points on a silver platter. Sure there were voices that spoke out against that zero sum approach but they were to few and to quiet, some even got hate as well, remember when the movement used to be about equality and love for everyone? If people genuinely felt that was still true for the left I gaurentee you that would've help tremendously in this election.
I think this gentleman is dead on with the abortion issue. I myself am I man and I am pro choice, but it isn't a big priority for me. I kind of think it's killing a baby but it doesn't bother me terribly. I think the left mistakes a sizable portion of people who are pro choice for being passionately pro abortion, whereas the reality is likely more that most people don't think the government should be stopping people from doing it, they don't think it's the end of the world for someone to have one, they probably think the later term the sketchier it gets, and they're likely not voting one way or the other because of it. There's an unfortunate bubble in the DNC. People who are passionate about politics are not the average voter, but they are the ones who dedicate their lives to it and end up crafting policy and running campaigns. They're out of touch.
It’s why the left are losing young men. Keep driving them right into the Republican party by demonizing them. Keep telling them they are the problem for just being men.
The constant identity politics is old. The country has spoken. What’s more important is not race, gender or sexuality but rather the class you’re in. Focus on NEEDS of everyday Americans vs focusing on the WANTS of the donor class and you might win a future election
Student loan forgiveness. Most ppl that eschew college to go str8 into the workforce are young men. And their tax dollars have to pay for ppl who chose a dead end degree and now want a bailout? Complete slap in the face.
Honestly, that’s the solution to Democrats man problem. Do you want more liberal men send to college. Do you want redress home ownership rates, send men to college. Do you want to take a bite out of those 5 million able bodied non-working dudes send them to college. Only problem is dems have no place for men in their coalition, so good luck asking them to pass title nine protections for men. You might as well just wait for judgment day before a Democrat will give two F’s about a dude .

So you don't care about your daughter? I've got a son and two daughters and I'm not worried about my son at all. He will be fine. I'm concerned about my daughters' future the most.
@ despite the fact that your initial question was ridiculous, I’ll answer it this way: my children are both grown, and while it will be more difficult for young women going forward with regard to reproductive rights, I saw the struggles my son went through to find himself and fit in. Use your energy to make the world better for your daughters instead of assuming that mothers don’t care about all of their children.
This guy is way too apologetic for the democratic party. If any leftist economic policy to help young men does come about, it will not come about through the democratic party, we have been waiting since 2008 and maybe even longer, and every time an opportunity came to run Bernie Sanders with a pro-male economic message and policy, the democratic party shot him down.
Talk to men about how you're going to help us make strong businesses, afford a home for our family, provide for our family, do the traditionally masculine things that are healthy for society. This is what we want. We don't want to be a footnote on women's issues. Make being a man feel great again! We can't be less priority than minority issues. And stop blowing up minority issues and making that the focus - do that as an add on. No one really cared about the millionth Trump or January 6th prosecution - those just wasted time and made people feel neglected and like the administration was unfocused on delivering for the majority.
Did you march in Black Lives Matter? Then you are the type of person who would follow Hitler. In terms of "facts don't matter," the liberal (I'm progressive, mostly) populace bought the narrative that police killing black suspects is a problem. Far from it. Statistics show otherwise.
As a hispanic Kamala's downfall was that she ran a campaign base on gender, college elites and LGBBQ Community. And then by attacking hispanic after their lost will only push males away furthermore from the democrat party. Democrats failed to understand that Mexico just picked their first female president and Puerto Rico their second female governor. As a politician you can not expect to exclude half of the ethnic groups in a society and then win the election. That's just political suicide..

I love how both of the above comments are opposing views. It’s not obvious that they dropped the ball, A; and B, I think the dems did have the ball in the first place considering that Trump is beatable hence why Biden beat him handedly in 2020. Had the democrats held a primary, they probably would’ve won.
Somewhat disagree on why Kamala didn’t go on Rogan. It wasn’t because they didn’t think they needed the young men’s vote; it was because she couldn’t handle a 3 hour podcast. Just like with Biden, the Dems are afraid to show their true stripes.
I'm curious what you mean when you say handle. The other candidate cannot handle an interview without lying. So in my opinion he cannot handle one But he can sit there for 3 hours and BS without Rogan pushing back on him
@@laurafay2796 It's actually quite simple. Trump was able to go on the show and confidently answer questions, BS or not. Kamala is not able to do that without her manicured talking points from her handlers. As they were with Biden in 2020, the Democratic machine tends to hide their candidates from expressing their feelings outside of a narrow scope. I'm actually not a Trumper believe it or not (didn't even vote since I don't really like either candidate and I don't do the whole "best of two evils" thing).
She destroyed Trump in the debate. Rogan could have come to her but his ego wouldn't let him. It just fueled the bros culture victim complex which Rogan grifts off of.
Rogan essentially pushed Donald Trump past the finish line and won him the election. Yeah, it may have to do with the over 45 million views that that said podcast gained him.Why did Kamala drop out of the Rogan podcast? Why? Who can answer me this?
So true… for too long we have seen gender relations as being a zero sum game. That is not the case - it is time we started listening sincerely to young, unemployed, alienated, single men from the working classes and the middle class.
I am now and have been finding it difficult to consider MAGA men as being worth listening to when they view women and minority communities as deserving less rights that their front lawn should get. When they change their tune, then I will open my ears to them again. And not a moment sooner either.
It was likely more likely about the price of housing. Young people know all too well what it cost. It also was about the border and liberal over the top weirdness.
I'm chuckling over all of these eggheads spending hours and hours trying to explain why Kamala lost this election. I can explain it in one sentence: Joe Biden has been our worst president since Jimmy Carter, and Kamala Harris literally said that she can't think of anything that she'd do differently than what Biden has done. Now, imagine if a new CEO took over a failing company, or a new coach took over a failing sports team, and he said that he wouldn't do anuything differently from what the last guy did. Who in their right minds would vote for that?
Joe Biden has NOT been the worst president since Jimmy Carter. How about the guy who led us into an illegal and unnecessary war based on lies, blew up the Middle East, got a bunch of our guys killed and messed up and gave rise to ISIS. That worked for you OK?
Richard Reeves is the epitome of coastal elite. He reads a few surveys from his ivory tower and then writes about it for all the other NPR-listening schmucks to feel enlightened and in touch with issues plaguing normal Americans so they can pretend they're good people and average Americans too. If he actually spent any time talking to real men, rather than doing these ridiculous podcast rounds without actually talking to any of the people he's talking about
That’s nothing. There’s a group of psychotic man hating feminists called the 4B group Who are making themselves ugly so men don’t want to bang them! 😂 they are shaving their heads off! 😂
Right-wing parties often employ a female leader as a softer image for hardline agenda. Left women are seen as too feminine and caring. Merkel would never have been a potential candidate.
@UllamayaMa That is NOT the problem. The Dems did not halfway try to meet the people where they were, especially black men. They were arrogant and wanted the people to go a long with what THEY considered were the "issues'.
Excuses excuses. Face reality and move on. Don't be a sore loser. I for one am wishing Trump success. If he is successful, then the country will be. 🙏👍💪
Another good point from Richard Reeves: if there are no alternatives for role models for men, we will pick whatever we've got, even if it's shit. With that being said, I personally would pick Walz as a role model, but I had to seek out most of the info I had about him. I think he would do great as a role model if he was able to campaign for more than only 2 months. We need a role model who is legitimately, proactively interested in the success of young guys.
Something kind of ironic about this topic, as a 56 year old man, I’m more or less unaffected by this gradual vilification of men. I’m confident and comfortable with who I am. But my wife went far right anti-feminist. She was ANGRY!
@ Wow… and after 28 years of marriage, and her being retired before she was 55, debt free, and living on acreage… we both thought she was happy! But what if you’re right? Maybe she just isn’t smart enough to recognize that her husband really isn’t her partner at all, but actually her rival! Maybe… if instead of fostering respect love and nurture, she needs to be more divisive, accusatory, and self focused, to truly be fulfilled as a modern woman. Now I’m really concerned that she’s been thinking for herself WAY too much! Is there like a mailing list or something that she should be on so she can be properly reeducated with the requirements of the feminists party line so she can be as happy as you, and can properly spend more time complaining about her oppression by the patriarchy?
True. My son and daughter both need addressing. Both have problems. And is a word more inclusive of both genders. Too much time spent in vilification while the younglings suffer. Like a divorce battle. Both genders, including pregnant unmarried teens, need good education and jobs plus choices regarding their reproductive status. Hope for their future. Custody battle 😅.
Well the guest is a democrat, so yeah. This is not a republican analysis. You can tell because he says republicans don’t have any actual policies that would appeal to men. As if Trump and Vance were simply showing their face for 3 hours on a podcast without discussing policy.

There was a not so distant moment prior to 2016 when a certain Bernie Sanders could become The Democratic Party candidate. He had a strong support from the working class including men who were even called the Bernie Bros. The tag came from the Democratic Party and was not meant to be a compliment. Bernie was forced to distance himself after accusations of sexism displayed by the Bros. These "Bro" types are long gone from the left and have been drifting towards the manosphere of Rogan and some more radical alt right podcasters. This is what happens when you are being fingerpointed at from elitist / feminist high horses instead of being sat at the common table. And btw in 2020 Rogan endorsed Sanders, this year it was Trump.... This is of course not about Rogan but about the question who is pushing these men to the right and why. Woke was not the reason for the lost election. This was.
If I nodded my head in agreement any harder to your comment I'd crack a vertebrae. Elitist, identity politics obsessed, PMC professional managerial class Dems chased the "Bernie Bros" out of the party. They were too white (no they weren't) and too privileged (most were poor and working class). Now all Dems have are crazy Shitlibs who think shaving their head and screeching on TikTok is a productive response to an electoral beat down. These folks have never been on a picket line. They've never been inside a union hall. They don't know how to build movements and fight beyond trying to cancel someone on social media. Dems are doomed. Unless a new Bernie emerges in the party who prioritizes class above identity and isn't afraid to name villains (and there isn't one in sight) men are not coming back.
When will you understand?!! The win for Trump was not about identity groups. It was about policies and values . Get that through your thick heads and stop generalizing. It will get you nowhere in insight.
Crazy how you can say trump isn't a good role model and then say tim waltz could have been. Dude is a liar. And everyone deep on sports knows an assistant coach , A coordinator isn't a coach the way y'all trying to frame it. Lying about military service was a huge fail too. Lying about being in tiananmen square. And saying, " hey, I'm just a knucklehead and a goofball" is wild. Y'all will continue to be out of touch until you can start to acknowledge these things
To be clear, Walz did not project a strong sense of masculinity. Couldn't load the shotgun, several scenes of him prancing about in front of a camera, exaggerating his military service, etc. Trump was also able to label him as Tampon Tim which didn't help either.
I as a man do not support tampons in boys locker rooms or gender affirming care for children under 18 years of age. Dems think boys can be girls at any age.

But they weren’t even courting the male vote. Their whole strategy was to get enough Republican women to flip for Kamala that she wouldn’t need men to win. And that strategy obviously failed.
I’m a straight male. My wife had an abortion at 23 weeks because the fetus was diagnosed with a severe skeletal dysplasia on the 21 week ultrasound. The baby had a severely small rib cage, undeveloped lungs and would have suffocated to death if carried to term. I was glad my wife could get an abortion pre-Dobbs. But abortion rights should not be just important to women.
I'm sorry for your loss. About 21 years ago, my wife lost a pregnancy we had tried hard for at 13 weeks. So, I've been there, though 23 weeks is harder. It seems to me that the real tragedy here is the loss of the child, and not whether an abortion was available or not. Carrying an unsuccesful pregnancy to full term would be a shit-sandwich, no doubt, something no one wants to go through, but still secondary to the actual tragedy of losing the child. We were able to get a D&C because it was only 13 weeks, small consolation that was. 21 weeks is dicier, illegal in many countries around the world. I don't equate a D&C or similar procedure to an abortion (termination of a healthy baby). I believe in your situation a medical exception should apply. But if I'm asked to support abortion beyond 20 weeks carte blanche, then I have to side with protecting the baby, even if that means protecting dead ones on rare occasion. Lastly, deciding the leader of the free world based off whether they support abortion or not is beyond idiocy. For both sides. Vote for your state assembly on that!
The problem is men have no rights. They can have a perfectly healthy child and offer to take full custody and financial responsibility and the woman is still allowed to kill the baby. On the other hand, if the father just doesn't want to take financial responsibility for the child, his wages are taken, his driver's license is taken and he's thrown in prison for not complying.
The abortion discussion was taken off the ballet by Trump, that ment in this election married women were more worried about putting food in childrens mouths than reproductive rights
Not true! 65,000 pregnancies resulting from rapes occurred the red states that have abortion bans. 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage. Girls and women are literally dying from miscarriages, stillbirths, ectopic pregnancies, sepsis and dead foetuses in red states with abortion bans.
I voted for Trump after giving the anti-male liberals my vote since 2004. I don't think Trump has all the answers, but he's at least speaking to somethings people under 45 might want like freedom cities, and baby bonuses. Expanded Medicare does nothing for me as a 35 year old.
Harris was floating a bigger child tax cut than Trump, and it was Republicans who last eliminated the CTC. And do you think you'll be 35 forever? Don't you have older people in your life? This is absolutely one of our national problems - people voting for their own narrow interest with zero sense of common good. And what is Trump going to do about housing? Only Harris had a realistic proposal for that. Housing costs went up under Trump. Anyway, you get what you vote for. Good luck with the higher prices tariffs will bring.

The male vote wasn't so much about "who likes me," it was more about "who doesn't hate me." It was also about the Dem's obsession with race, gender, and sex. You win elections with policy, not identity politics.
Exactly
Well, no, you don't. You win elections by hitting the really big emotional buttons that will propel people to vote for you, not them. Simply put, Trump and his team knew this, and knew it would be doubly important in an election where the races for President, Senate and House could go either way by tight margins. Harris had a mountain to climb with the late start, didn't fully take advantage of her debate win, and appeared to be advised by her team to play it as safe as possible in the home stretch rather than go for Trump's throat. The supreme irony is that a little toxic masculinity might have won her the election.
This I can agree with.
The republicans only platform is identiity poltics and culture war. They are bereft of policy. It's why Trump was so easily destroyed in the debate. So clearly policy doens't win you elections and never has if you've ever read any of the data about U.S elections at every level.
you ask "what policy did Trump or any other lying Republican ever present during campaign 2024" ?? They said " Trump bragged about having a concept of a policy but we all know how he lies" ??

I don't think that women doing better is a bad thing but a lot of it as at the cost of men which I disagree with and so do mothers of the 7 million working age NEETs in the US.

So voting on feelings, not on facts? Got it.
Who would have thought that openly hating men would drive them away.
Sadly low income, uneducated men feel that caring about other people's rights portends hating them. Conservative men are very insecure in their masculinity and view female equality and female dominance as the same thing. The Christian bible makes it very, VERY clear that men are superior to women and that women should be subservient to men at all times. As women are graduating college at much higher rates than conservative men and earning more money than conservative men, these men see that their authority is being stripped away. They blame DEI, liberals, those with a college or above degree, etc. for their inferiority complex and toxic insecurity. It is no different than short men hating and resenting tall men for getting all the female attention.
Not all men, just the majority who don't call themselves 'women'. The ones who DO call themselves women enjoy a special status among Loony Lefties - they prioritise them over everyone, including actual women.
Lol ikr
The right openly hates women and they gained ground among white women 🤷♀️
The level of toxic resentment I'm hearing towards anyone male right now, if off of the charts!
They basically destroyed the popular culture of 80s, 90s, even 2000s. Most of the excellent movies made then are impossible to be made nowadays because of ridiculous political correctness. You can not make even a decent comedy or parody movie, because you may offend some snowflake.

Society doesn’t care for young men, nor do republicans. At least republicans don’t berate them constantly. Glad this issue is being noticed despite the outcome of the election
What is it about young men's hard lives that everyone is forgetting and not caring about? Genuine question. What are you referring to that needs to change?
@@ZiliaVing Nothing legal will change that, it is biological. Most women want to reproduce the same set of men because they want their children to share the top men's attributes. When 80% of the women want 20% of the men, that leaves 80% of the men only visible to the bottom 20% of the women. Society will inevitably allow the top 20% of men to get an inordinate amount of the resources. This is why we send men to war, have them collect garbage, dig in mines, drill for oil, etc. This is why when you ask women would you rather clean septic tanks for 100K a year or work for free in an NGO, they choose NGOs, where most men would work at 100K a year doing almost anything.
Most men, biologically, are expendable - something we are both subconsciously and consciously aware of. Only when highly repressive religious structures, either implemented by authority or through social norms, are placed on women will most men even have a shot at reproducing, thus securing their value to society. Societies based on democratic laws and subjective ethics will always undervalue men because reproduction undervalues most men. Reproductive fitness is the governing dynamic of evolved beings. You cannot mask that biology if your societal structures are based on human desire.
@@ZiliaVing There are way more educated women than men. Since educated women would rather die than go out with uneducated men, it leaves about 20% of men without mates. Educated women can go up the age brackets, not men. That's one serious problem discussed by NYU Professor Scott Galloway. Another problem is that innovation drives American GDP. The salaries in the innovation industry are high but you need at minimum an undergrad diploma. High paying jobs in the industrial sector are rare and the social stigma even worst. Harris did not address one time such economical and educational discripencies. In fact, she only said that she will support "good schools", which means either expensive private schools or public schools in great neighborhoods, where the differences in educational achievements are not as evident. That's about as bad as it gets.
The Democrats were deluded by their own progressive propaganda, effectively saying that men should be more like women. If they keep pushing DEI like this, they'll be wiped out in 4 years.
@@stephenlee5144so the young male problem is that they can't find dates? Do they think voting conversative will change that? That we'll suddenly or even over time transition into a society where they'll be assigned a mate? Is that what young males want?
I’m a straight male who does feel that I was just not welcome in the liberal party to be quite honest, while the right was atleast willing to listen to me.
So sexually assaulting girls and women, and leaving them to die from a lack of reproductive health care is part of what you aspire to?
I’m right there with you mate. This was the first year it affected my vote and it certainly won’t be the last.
What were you trying to say that was taking for granted or unheard? What part of your life would be heard or taking into consideration by the new President and his new administration? You emphasized being a straight male and being taken for granted as a straight male. What policy or policies were at the intersection of your sexual orientation and your gender that caused you to be unwelcome? Could you elaborate on and attach some details to the nebulousness of your comment? Or better said; could you offer some specificity to the generic nature of your comment? Just a curious viewer from London, England, United Kingdom.
It's a damn shame too, because Democrats offer no solutions, while the Republicans offer all the wrong ones. With no major player to challenge them, many men assume that the Republicans are right about everything when it comes to their problems.
@@jewulo LOL Yeah let's talk about "intersectionality"! You are totally clueless about the loss. Get your head out of your sociology textbook and look at your positions.

According to the Democratic Party I’m “Too male, too pale, and too stale”. You don’t want my vote.
Perhaps the constant chant of "toxic masculinity" played a role for both young men AND young women.
65,000 pregnancies resulting from rapes occurred the red states that have abortion bans. 3 women die per day from Intimate Partner Violence. It is the reason why young women are not keen to get into relationships, that is for sure. There's a new movement.

Nope. I can guarantee you, no. The best you're gonna get is Tim Walz in a camo hat.
Some great points but Tim Walz just doesn't appeal to young men. His fake football story, his fake Tiananmen Square story, his fake military background just all don't resonate with men and when you throw in the zestiness that he showed whenever out in public and demonstrated incompetence (being a knucklehead is not a positive self assessment from someone running for VP) he just doesn't come across at all manly. It didn't help that he just got absolutely annihilated by Vance in the debate, they basically hid him from that point on as he'd been utterly exposed.
If anything, Kamala was the more masculine of the Democrat candidates.
It's funny that telling 50% of the voter base "we don't need or want you" and "you're toxic" and "the patriarchy" doesn't work. Especially when young men are doing worse by pretty much every single metric then the women.
Young men tend NOT to look up to goofy, pathological liars who put tampon dispensers in their restrooms, just saying
Raling against "the patriarchy" is never going to win men over.
"I eat white person tacos" Waltz was never going to give a good vision of masculinity. He is the buffoon father we have seen on tv for decades.
Tim Walz can't win, he's way too anti 2A to win enough states. He made a mess out of Minnesota, too. And he's just too awkward. Making an ad with him trying to load that shotgun sure backfired.
Dude is pretty effeminate also him being a teacher hurts him as public school is openly hostile too boys. Also him lying a lot doesn't help
Democrats tactics to get mens vote were a joke. "Vote Kamala or your a misogynist" or "Vote Kamala so your girlfriend can get an abortion". Nothing to help men.

Exactly!
This guest nailed it, people are not algorithms, they can hold 2 or 3 truths at the same time: may not like some aspects of Trump, but like his message, etc. Why do all the Moms dealing with the education system on behalf of their sons notice these issues, but the Dems don’t ?
Perhaps they're getting paid to take a dive. Or maybe they just got legitimately outsmarted by people who believe in Jewish space lasers and lizard people. I lean toward the former. And, Google, if you would desist with your idiotic "corrections," I'd have a lot less editing to do.
Well said. Spot on.
It’s interesting that you deny the value of algorithms in an election involving a person who makes his living understanding the value of algorithms.
Moms, Teachers and Dems know the issues, it is a problem that Republicans won't accept extra funding for their states or vote against proposals to improve educations. It is not a lack of awareness. It is the Republicans blocking solutions, which gives them a group of angry young men to exploit.
Dems have their heads inside their own private reality.
I would also say that woke, identity and gender politics were some of the other Achilles' heels for the Democrats. They mistakenly assumed that Black and Hispanic voters shared these values. Democrats embraced wokism and began to refer to Latinos/Hispanics as "Latinx" - a term that the Latinos/Hispanic community was never consulted on and, in fact, hated.
Could you please define ‘wokism’? To my mind that is a pejorative term without specific meaning only wielded by rightwingers to mock and disparage what passes for left-progressive policy.

Another issue is the DEI initiatives in corporate America that are discriminating against young white men. There have been a number of anonymous polls of hiring/HR managers in US and roughly 50% admit to being directed by their execs to discriminate against white men, and in some cases men in general.
These policies on the surface are aimed to right historic injustices against minorities and women, and they may do so, but in the end they also disenfranchise young men, who are already falling behind in academics and in large urban centers earning on average less than young women. And these policies spearheaded by democrats further disenfranchise them.

No matter what I say, they scoff or chuckle and say, "That's not true." As in Trump has always been consistent in his positions, 'unlike the liberal Democrats.'' So I ask, what about accusing Obama of being born in Kenya? "He never said that. Com'on." It's like talking to members of a cult. I suggest they stop watching Fox News and see if their thinking changes. They all claim to follow other news, but never say what it is. And if they don't have a dazed look they're snarky bigots.

I think part of his point was that it wasn't necessarily a conflict between genders but that the potus-elect was the candidate who at least made it sound like he had a plan for them. As he stated, it's not that they didn't support reproductive rights. It's that it wasn't a priority. What often gets overlooked is that in the 50s when jobs for non-college were in abundance, labor unions were 30% of the workforce. Also, there were housing subsidies that social scientists say led to the baby boomers by making ordinary men more attractive. But in recent decades men have been ingrained with the idea of a fabled "bootstrap" tech hero economy where individuality is championed, and the role of public investment is to be shunned as crutches for weakness. So, not only are they not getting the help they need and deserve, but they've been shamed into believing that asking for help conflicts with masculine values.
This is the best analysis of why Trump won and Harris lost, that I've heard.

When you vote dont look at the color, race, looks, sex. Look at their ability, leadership and what they will offer. Kamala said" nothing comes to my mind". Election was decided at that moment. People did not wanted another 4 more years of Biden/Harris administration.

Better healhcare elder care childcare money for down payment more building of homes 50,000 in tax breaks for new businesses. She said she was going to work to address and tackle price gouging and also deal with the border. I think Biden did a great job even with inflation due to the pandemic. It was a worldwide problem not just in the U.S. Trump had nothing and spewed hate and racist rhetoric and incoherent nonsense. He caused the horrible situation by his incompetence handling the pandemic. He committed an insurrection and tried to overthrow the government. How could this be a get out of jail card for him??? Insanity!!!

Why don't the Democrats just accept that Trump is an individual and his behavior doesn't have anything to do with "performative masculinity." Are men allowed to just be humans without being lumped into identify boxes and stereotypes?
They stereotyped men as ignorant dude bros. Big mistake.
If they get stereotyoed them that way because they BEHAVE that way. If they want to be seen differently, they should present themselves in a different fashion. There are plenty of men in this country who don't get sterotyped in any negive manner and that is because they engage with the world in respectful and intelligent ways. And not one of those men voted for Trump, that is for darn sure!

My favorite quote on this comes from none other than James Carville. When telling Bill Kristol about the "white, straight male problem" that Democrats have, James said, "If you listen to NPR for two weeks, you wouldn't know we even exist!"

Plenty of men, across the age and socio - eco spectrum are are not racist, etc. etc. That said, 100% of the ones who ARE voted for Trump. They are MAGA precisely because they are those things. Not just men either. Ever person who voted for Trump is one, or at the very least "ok" with it on some level. Which makes them either morally bankrupt, brainwashed or stupid. Or some combo of three. My money is most of MAGA falls into the combo category. Which means that there is hope for many of them to become good humans (again) once they leave MAGA behind.
Are they though? Are young men being so left behind? What are men's issues? Also keep in mind that a lot of men will suffer from having to take care of a child that was not supposed to be born too. Abortion ban is impacting men's lives almost just as much as women's.

I mean just look at the way large group of some left leaning women and men reacted to men talking about how the patriarchy negatively affected them last year. They used that moment as a way to express their cathartic resement instead of trying to offer an alternative place for these men to go and feel heard and welcomed, the feminists of yesteryear would have been jumping for joy at the opportunity to directly shrink the size of that toxic group but instead many in the modern setting just spewed the very toxic additudes and jaded resement that drives new comers away, again handing the right their talking points on a silver platter. Sure there were voices that spoke out against that zero sum approach but they were to few and to quiet, some even got hate as well, remember when the movement used to be about equality and love for everyone? If people genuinely felt that was still true for the left I gaurentee you that would've help tremendously in this election.
Men have been denigrated and ignored for most of my life and I am 73 years old.

I think this gentleman is dead on with the abortion issue. I myself am I man and I am pro choice, but it isn't a big priority for me. I kind of think it's killing a baby but it doesn't bother me terribly. I think the left mistakes a sizable portion of people who are pro choice for being passionately pro abortion, whereas the reality is likely more that most people don't think the government should be stopping people from doing it, they don't think it's the end of the world for someone to have one, they probably think the later term the sketchier it gets, and they're likely not voting one way or the other because of it.
There's an unfortunate bubble in the DNC. People who are passionate about politics are not the average voter, but they are the ones who dedicate their lives to it and end up crafting policy and running campaigns. They're out of touch.
Plus, the Supreme Court decided this issue. It wouldn't have mattered if Trump or Kamala were elected, abortion is a state-level issue.

There is a sort of masculinity that is toxic, however I think it sounds like “masculinity is always toxic” to so many people.

Raise your boys to understand and reject misogyny and they will NEVER be accused of Toxic Masculinity. You can do it! And I love you for it.
@@geraldineclarke5434 Why it the default assumption that men need to change? I suspect that is the core of the problem.
It’s why the left are losing young men. Keep driving them right into the Republican party by demonizing them. Keep telling them they are the problem for just being men.
The constant identity politics is old. The country has spoken. What’s more important is not race, gender or sexuality but rather the class you’re in. Focus on NEEDS of everyday Americans vs focusing on the WANTS of the donor class and you might win a future election
Student loan forgiveness. Most ppl that eschew college to go str8 into the workforce are young men. And their tax dollars have to pay for ppl who chose a dead end degree and now want a bailout? Complete slap in the face.
The top 1% pay no taxes, that is the slap in the face.
Good point.
Honestly, that’s the solution to Democrats man problem.
Do you want more liberal men send to college.
Do you want redress home ownership rates, send men to college.
Do you want to take a bite out of those 5 million able bodied non-working dudes send them to college.
Only problem is dems have no place for men in their coalition, so good luck asking them to pass title nine protections for men.

That's the only reason I ever watch any PBS news.
I suspect Trump won a lot of young people's votes because HIS VP, JD Vance actually IS an attractive male role model--- smart, successful, and overcame a pretty crap hand. Tim Walz?? What?
You think he's attractive?
as a Democrat and mother of a daughter and son I agree with everything this guest is saying.
So you don't care about your daughter? I've got a son and two daughters and I'm not worried about my son at all. He will be fine. I'm concerned about my daughters' future the most.
@ despite the fact that your initial question was ridiculous, I’ll answer it this way: my children are both grown, and while it will be more difficult for young women going forward with regard to reproductive rights, I saw the struggles my son went through to find himself and fit in. Use your energy to make the world better for your daughters instead of assuming that mothers don’t care about all of their children.
This guy is way too apologetic for the democratic party. If any leftist economic policy to help young men does come about, it will not come about through the democratic party, we have been waiting since 2008 and maybe even longer, and every time an opportunity came to run Bernie Sanders with a pro-male economic message and policy, the democratic party shot him down.
Talk to men about how you're going to help us make strong businesses, afford a home for our family, provide for our family, do the traditionally masculine things that are healthy for society. This is what we want. We don't want to be a footnote on women's issues. Make being a man feel great again! We can't be less priority than minority issues. And stop blowing up minority issues and making that the focus - do that as an add on. No one really cared about the millionth Trump or January 6th prosecution - those just wasted time and made people feel neglected and like the administration was unfocused on delivering for the majority.
Yup. Well said.
Yeah they didn’t use governor jazz hands enough to appeal to working class men. The guy pranced around like a coked out muppet.
I was with the guest until he held up Waltz as a positive male role model. Eeesh. They didn't call him Tampon Tim for nothing.
What kills me is that Trump showed America his whole ass, and America decided to walk up and kiss it.
Did you march in Black Lives Matter? Then you are the type of person who would follow Hitler. In terms of "facts don't matter," the liberal (I'm progressive, mostly) populace bought the narrative that police killing black suspects is a problem. Far from it. Statistics show otherwise.

As a hispanic Kamala's downfall was that she ran a campaign base on gender, college elites and LGBBQ Community. And then by attacking hispanic after their lost will only push males away furthermore from the democrat party. Democrats failed to understand that Mexico just picked their first female president and Puerto Rico their second female governor. As a politician you can not expect to exclude half of the ethnic groups in a society and then win the election. That's just political suicide..

I love how both of the above comments are opposing views. It’s not obvious that they dropped the ball, A; and B, I think the dems did have the ball in the first place considering that Trump is beatable hence why Biden beat him handedly in 2020. Had the democrats held a primary, they probably would’ve won.
Simply acknowledging the problem for men is addressing the issue
Somewhat disagree on why Kamala didn’t go on Rogan. It wasn’t because they didn’t think they needed the young men’s vote; it was because she couldn’t handle a 3 hour podcast. Just like with Biden, the Dems are afraid to show their true stripes.
I'm curious what you mean when you say handle. The other candidate cannot handle an interview without lying. So in my opinion he cannot handle one But he can sit there for 3 hours and BS without Rogan pushing back on him
@@laurafay2796 It's actually quite simple. Trump was able to go on the show and confidently answer questions, BS or not. Kamala is not able to do that without her manicured talking points from her handlers. As they were with Biden in 2020, the Democratic machine tends to hide their candidates from expressing their feelings outside of a narrow scope. I'm actually not a Trumper believe it or not (didn't even vote since I don't really like either candidate and I don't do the whole "best of two evils" thing).
She destroyed Trump in the debate. Rogan could have come to her but his ego wouldn't let him. It just fueled the bros culture victim complex which Rogan grifts off of.
Rogan essentially pushed Donald Trump past the finish line and won him the election. Yeah, it may have to do with the over 45 million views that that said podcast gained him.Why did Kamala drop out of the Rogan podcast? Why? Who can answer me this?

I'm chuckling over all of these eggheads spending hours and hours trying to explain why Kamala lost this election. I can explain it in one sentence: Joe Biden has been our worst president since Jimmy Carter, and Kamala Harris literally said that she can't think of anything that she'd do differently than what Biden has done.
Now, imagine if a new CEO took over a failing company, or a new coach took over a failing sports team, and he said that he wouldn't do anuything differently from what the last guy did. Who in their right minds would vote for that?

Another good point from Richard Reeves: if there are no alternatives for role models for men, we will pick whatever we've got, even if it's shit. With that being said, I personally would pick Walz as a role model, but I had to seek out most of the info I had about him. I think he would do great as a role model if he was able to campaign for more than only 2 months. We need a role model who is legitimately, proactively interested in the success of young guys.

She's just not very quick witted.
@ Wow… and after 28 years of marriage, and her being retired before she was 55, debt free, and living on acreage… we both thought she was happy! But what if you’re right? Maybe she just isn’t smart enough to recognize that her husband really isn’t her partner at all, but actually her rival! Maybe… if instead of fostering respect love and nurture, she needs to be more divisive, accusatory, and self focused, to truly be fulfilled as a modern woman. Now I’m really concerned that she’s been thinking for herself WAY too much! Is there like a mailing list or something that she should be on so she can be properly reeducated with the requirements of the feminists party line so she can be as happy as you, and can properly spend more time complaining about her oppression by the patriarchy?
True. My son and daughter both need addressing. Both have problems. And is a word more inclusive of both genders. Too much time spent in vilification while the younglings suffer. Like a divorce battle. Both genders, including pregnant unmarried teens, need good education and jobs plus choices regarding their reproductive status. Hope for their future. Custody battle 😅.
Are we now saying acknowledgement and representation of a neglected group identity is a good thing? Sounds pretty woke.
Well the guest is a democrat, so yeah. This is not a republican analysis. You can tell because he says republicans don’t have any actual policies that would appeal to men. As if Trump and Vance were simply showing their face for 3 hours on a podcast without discussing policy.

There was a not so distant moment prior to 2016 when a certain Bernie Sanders could become The Democratic Party candidate. He had a strong support from the working class including men who were even called the Bernie Bros. The tag came from the Democratic Party and was not meant to be a compliment. Bernie was forced to distance himself after accusations of sexism displayed by the Bros. These "Bro" types are long gone from the left and have been drifting towards the manosphere of Rogan and some more radical alt right podcasters. This is what happens when you are being fingerpointed at from elitist / feminist high horses instead of being sat at the common table. And btw in 2020 Rogan endorsed Sanders, this year it was Trump.... This is of course not about Rogan but about the question who is pushing these men to the right and why. Woke was not the reason for the lost election. This was.
They had Rogan but tried to deplatform him for daring to talk to people of different ideologies and then they lost him
If I nodded my head in agreement any harder to your comment I'd crack a vertebrae. Elitist, identity politics obsessed, PMC professional managerial class Dems chased the "Bernie Bros" out of the party. They were too white (no they weren't) and too privileged (most were poor and working class). Now all Dems have are crazy Shitlibs who think shaving their head and screeching on TikTok is a productive response to an electoral beat down. These folks have never been on a picket line. They've never been inside a union hall. They don't know how to build movements and fight beyond trying to cancel someone on social media. Dems are doomed. Unless a new Bernie emerges in the party who prioritizes class above identity and isn't afraid to name villains (and there isn't one in sight) men are not coming back.

Lying about being in tiananmen square. And saying, " hey, I'm just a knucklehead and a goofball" is wild. Y'all will continue to be out of touch until you can start to acknowledge these things
To be clear, Walz did not project a strong sense of masculinity. Couldn't load the shotgun, several scenes of him prancing about in front of a camera, exaggerating his military service, etc. Trump was also able to label him as Tampon Tim which didn't help either.
I as a man do not support tampons in boys locker rooms or gender affirming care for children under 18 years of age. Dems think boys can be girls at any age.

I’m a straight male. My wife had an abortion at 23 weeks because the fetus was diagnosed with a severe skeletal dysplasia on the 21 week ultrasound. The baby had a severely small rib cage, undeveloped lungs and would have suffocated to death if carried to term. I was glad my wife could get an abortion pre-Dobbs. But abortion rights should not be just important to women.
Noone wants to stop women from having abortions but running your entire campaign on this one issue was a huge mistake and it showed
@@knightrider693 they they miscalculated how unimportant body autonomy is to your average American, white women voted for Trump
I'm sorry for your loss. About 21 years ago, my wife lost a pregnancy we had tried hard for at 13 weeks. So, I've been there, though 23 weeks is harder.
It seems to me that the real tragedy here is the loss of the child, and not whether an abortion was available or not. Carrying an unsuccesful pregnancy to full term would be a shit-sandwich, no doubt, something no one wants to go through, but still secondary to the actual tragedy of losing the child.
We were able to get a D&C because it was only 13 weeks, small consolation that was. 21 weeks is dicier, illegal in many countries around the world. I don't equate a D&C or similar procedure to an abortion (termination of a healthy baby). I believe in your situation a medical exception should apply.
But if I'm asked to support abortion beyond 20 weeks carte blanche, then I have to side with protecting the baby, even if that means protecting dead ones on rare occasion.
Lastly, deciding the leader of the free world based off whether they support abortion or not is beyond idiocy. For both sides. Vote for your state assembly on that!
The problem is men have no rights. They can have a perfectly healthy child and offer to take full custody and financial responsibility and the woman is still allowed to kill the baby. On the other hand, if the father just doesn't want to take financial responsibility for the child, his wages are taken, his driver's license is taken and he's thrown in prison for not complying.
They shouldnt, this affects men as well. The extreme right use abortion issue to win votes since 1980 and has warped the conversation completely
The abortion discussion was taken off the ballet by Trump, that ment in this election married women were more worried about putting food in childrens mouths than reproductive rights
Married women and single women should never be lumped together - married women are submissive
Not true! 65,000 pregnancies resulting from rapes occurred the red states that have abortion bans. 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage. Girls and women are literally dying from miscarriages, stillbirths, ectopic pregnancies, sepsis and dead foetuses in red states with abortion bans.
I voted for Trump after giving the anti-male liberals my vote since 2004. I don't think Trump has all the answers, but he's at least speaking to somethings people under 45 might want like freedom cities, and baby bonuses. Expanded Medicare does nothing for me as a 35 year old.
Better be safe than sorry and hand over the federal government for dismantling into perpetuity?
@amcaesar Dems are offering people under 45 nothing.

Harris was floating a bigger child tax cut than Trump, and it was Republicans who last eliminated the CTC. And do you think you'll be 35 forever? Don't you have older people in your life? This is absolutely one of our national problems - people voting for their own narrow interest with zero sense of common good. And what is Trump going to do about housing? Only Harris had a realistic proposal for that. Housing costs went up under Trump. Anyway, you get what you vote for. Good luck with the higher prices tariffs will bring.
Well then, let's hope you never need Medicare.
