Just popping in to say what you typed out is uplifting.

I know a couple mid 20s-to-early 30s women who seem to be in the same boat as the ladies you bring up. They're still very much all about not taking shit from guys or not bowing down to what they see as male chauvinists, yeah.... but more than one convo I end up having with them? They've spoken on stuff like it's bullshit for stuff stacked against guys like divorce courts, that they miss men ready to go approach them much less flirt and happy to blame the Metoo/crazier feminists for it, or speaking on all those schoolteachers preying on little boys is horrifying - lock those bitches away/throw away the key.

They're not being loud and crazy on it, mind... but they seem aware of how currently socially stacked it is against guys, and want men to be able to be MEN again, and ready to see things change so they CAN be once more.

Unlike your post, I'd like to stress I've only had these convos in passing and with just a couple ladies. I really AM anecdotal in this case! But I'm pleasantly shocked to see someone else technically hearing/seeing what I heard in pleasant shock.

this is somthing the modern right needs to get alot better at FAST, our Christian heavenly father forgives us so we must do the same to others (no blanketly)

when we see people like Stancil growing more disillusioned he needs to see an earnestly outstretched hand not a gaping maw on both sides ready to vilify him.

This is obviously somthing you must go case by case on but truly we can only help ourselves by showing compassion to people who have acted in ways that may seem like they dont deserve it.

"You will have MANY imperfect allys on the road to salvation"

just my 2 cents on this, Stancil may never come around and im not saying dont make fun of him, im saying as a whole the right needs to be more "accepting" of even high profile "converts"

the left will tear eachother apart on a social level until there is only 1 jewish/black drag queen non binary blue hair left

If I go on twitter for 5 minutes I guarantee I'll see some right wing political account being weirdly protective of Stancil

He's basically the right wing's @Fatpacks
 
Stancil is an excellent real-time demonstration of purity spiralling and how left wing activists are far more interested in optics than open dialogue

Fun fact: that famous picture of Rosa Parks was staged. It's one of the first examples of the media manipulating the public to tell a partial truth enough times until it's accepted as whole fact.

Stancil is a moderate Democrat who advocates for Obamashit. Why he thinks Communists will listen to him is completely beyond me.

I'm not saying it's not happening studs I go out and look at it happening, but what I see is not young men skulking in corners afraid to approach young ladies, what I see is young men happily hanging out with each other because they're basically still big kids, and the young ladies dancing for their attention because they're basically adults. I haven't been around young people outside of the US, in places where social life isn't massively affected by the drinking age, and I'm curious to hear from the europoors and latinbros. Is it like what it was like when I was young, when mostly at 19 you had a 22 or 23yo boyfriend, because 18yo boys just aren't really fully cooked yet?

been over a decade since i've been to university so it might not be 100% accurate anymore but the social life was kind of defined by a sort of soft class divide where the cool kids (most of the girls and the more popular boys) were partying it up in semi-exclusive groups and cliques, while the rest (unpopular boys) coped with not being invited by hanging out with each other at LAN parties (bunch of nerds setting up their computers in a big room and playing video games through the night) or DnD sessions (this was before the recent normiefication of pen+paper rpgs, back then the only people you'd see at such gatherings were the semi autistic nerds from the comp sci and engineering departments)

Probably because he was raised under the impression that they would. Mr. Stancil is a great example of when you are raised on lies. Reality just punches you in the face, literally in his case.
