I used to be in the confident in my masculinity category. Then I realized it eas actually the gives no fucks about my masculinity category.
Then I noticed everything that was once manly is now just adult, Also our public officials and law enforcement don't do any of it throwing their power about willy nilly.
(I grew up in the cold war. It was uncouth to throw power about willy nilly. ☢️)
Now our masculine examples are Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Joe Rogan...
Donald Trump...
A few years back I turned in my man card. I am no man. (Which may mean I could kill the Witch King of Angmar, or maybe MacBeth.)
I relinquish power as toxic. I've long deliberated my way to marxism, to naturalist philosophy, to community centered society, to liberty, and to grieving the imminent end of civilization, possibly of our species, due to our hubris.
I'd argue that none of these people are men. Just as stupid people often try to pretend to be what they think a smart person is, these spineless cowards pretend to be what they think a strong man is, but actually have no idea.
Yet, they have huge followings. There are plenty of dudes who happen to be men who serve better examples, but they just happen to identify as men or are assumed to be by default. The models they offer have little to do with their manhood.
