So facism is mens fault? I wonder how that effects a young man who isnt a facist while they are developing? Ur narrative is actively harming young men and driving them to be the very thing u swore to drstroy.
Such profound concern trolling wisdom from the wisest of all Star Wars characters!
Who’s the alien they’re pointing to?
Glup Shitto, who else?

Real answer is some extra with a silly Star Wars name that I don't even know.No, it's not "men's" fault, but the people who's fault it is are primarily men. That's not an opinion, that's just history, not to mention what's happening before our eyes. Even women who are fascist push patriarchy. There is no point in debating whether fascism is primarily a male driven phenomenon. The only legitimate question is why?
This is insulting as fuck. I grew up as a boy with plenty of reactionary beliefs because patriarchy is a fucking prison. And as I got older and got called out for it, you know what I didn’t do? Become a fucking fascist. I wasn’t pushed towards fascism. I was already reactionary and fascism would have required less work of me. That’s not the same thing. And it lets people off the hook to suggest otherwise.
Ok so ur smart enough not to be a fascist congratulations for achieving the bare minimum. Do u think most people are bright enough to go "ohhh yeah fascism is my fault because of the gender i was born i shall apologise for my genders ancestors actions" or do they go "no fuck you and fuck everything you stand for"?
I mean if the shoe fits
it's this aggrieved "wah poor me for being born a man" shit that makes people disregard your bullshit in the first place. whatever happened to masculinity being defined by setting your jaw, gritting your teeth, and fixing your own fuckeries before they could adversely harm your surroundings?
literally the bare fucking minimum a cracker could do and you phrase it like it's an impossible fucking pipe dream. and you wonder why people disregard and avoid bullshit peddlers like you.
christ, our species is cooked if you're an example of the kind of man the future has to look forward to
Did someone ask all men to apologize for something?
How is it insulting? I didn't say it was you. Fascism is a social phenomenon driven almost entirely by men. That doesn't mean all men are fascists, or that there is something wrong with masculinity. It's about certain men in certain situations reacting in what is an entirely predictable way. It is perhaps an insult to fascist men, but I'm comfortable insulting them.
I wasn’t insulted by what you said and I’m not a man
Your misconstruing the statement. Fascism is a way for insecure men to feel powerful. These men are feeling insecure due to lack of job prospects, lack of honest to God to physical insecurity, and that also makes them less desirable to potential mates.
The way to protect against fascism is to ensure proper addressing of Maslow‘s-goddamn-hierarchy of needs. Endstage, capitalism leads to fascism, but it has to secure itself in spreading racism and sexism.
I knew it as soon as I read your ‘Tate is right’ bullshit.
Yes. Men had all the political power in the countries that turned to fascism in the past. If you knew any history this would be obvious.
The same way that one woman having an abortion harms another woman; not at all.
It’s room temperature IQ weakling reactionaries like you that are harming young men. Real men stand against fascists.
this is kind of meaningless to point out, since men also had the power in every country that turned towards socialism, gave or took away rights, started and ended wars, etc.
So men have no issues and the only reason men are listening to tate is cos they are hatfull evil bastards?
Im so happy to learn that women didnt go along with fascism or support it in any way. If u knew anything about history u'd have heard of Magda Goebbels, Irma Grese, Eva Braun, Margaret Harker, Yukiko Sugishita etc.
Abortions are about the liberty to do with onself as one wishes, what does this got to do with u blaming men for fascism? Having your gender (something where most people derive a majority of their identity) blamed for the entirety of facism and its hanouse actions isnt exactly fair or a good way to raise a child.
This is bad faith child-like insults not a civilised discussion of ideas undertaken by real adults. I stand against fascists and i will not let you paint me as one.
There are definitely issues affecting men, the only men listening to Tate are weaklings looking to a perceived 'tough guy' for answers.
I would also know they didn't get voted into positions of power, give speeches, command invasions or otherwise directly wield any power. Because they were living in patriarchal societies. Please think before you comment.
As much as calling out fascists has to do with impacting the political views of non-fascists. There's an Explain Like I'm Five sub somewhere you could post this question to.
If you don't want to be insulted you should avoid entering conversations by parroting the views of rapists.
Yes exactly, im simpky saying thwy wouldnt be listening if he hadnt resonated with their issues.
If we go back to your original claim that facism is entirely mens fault and this claim that women had no power does this make these women innocent? Also by ur logic men did literally everything else including go to war to fight facsism. You implication here is that its not human history but mans history and if i where i women id find that pretty demeaning.
Again attacking the person is not good faith discussion i refuse to engage in bad faith insults.
The only possible explanation for any of this is that men are bad and we should definitely not examine the underlying causes and material conditions at all.
Great idea im sure them killing themselves at record rates must be an anomoly.
Well, you can prove anything with facts.
