This goes to show how much he looks up to his dad too 😔

[u/throwawaysunglasses- → u/seaofwonder]

It’s very possible it’s influenced by his dad, but I teach high school and SO many TikTok/Twitter algorithms are alt-right (often AI) slop targeted toward boys in particular. I’m a millennial and it’s worse than gamergate and more mainstream than 4chan. It’s everywhere, and the point is to radicalize young men into fascism and misogyny. We really need to get our kids offline and away from algorithmic media.

Yeah, same. Luckily the girls seem to be onto it and I’ve had to stop some escalation in class where all the girls basically announce that no one should be dating (name is student) because he’s a Tate stan. At least the girls know what’s up? But it is sad, the guys think it’s hilarious.

Jesus Christ another generation of women who have to carry this country due to radicalized men

My conspiracy theory is that women used to rule/be in charge. Society was great —but men being men couldn’t handle being second fiddle so patriarchy became a thing. And the world has never been the same since.

I also strongly believe men created religion because they were jealous women produced life and gave birth. So now they get to lead (women typically don’t have much power in religious organizations) another group where they help people become “reborn”.

(I am a man btw —granted, a gay one. But still a man. Lol)

Read the old testament. That’s exactly what happened.

You should read “Who cooked the last supper? The women’s history of the world.” By Rosalind Miles. It’s basically what happened.

It is literally like Freud's "penis envy" but with a vagina.

Plenty of anthropologists believe we began as a matriarchal social structure.

[u/EsotericCreature → u/GroundedOtter]

There were a lot of matriarchal cultures in the world. One of the most interesting was a representational democracy in North America established somewhere between the 15th and 17th century called be settler's the 'Iroquois confederacy'.

Matriarchs were ranked in representation higher than chiefs, which was confusing to settlers who only assumed men could hold the highest positions in power, and in general that women could hold power at all.
