The way forward is to first recognize what we are up against [View all]

We are up against a movement of creepy white men who live vicariously through the con artist because they want to behave badly. They want to go back to a time where it was ok to be open with their racism, sexism and other bigotries. They want the bar lowered on acceptable standards and for all of them to be held up as supreme.

There have been many discussions about men, especially young men, feeling that they are missing something and we are letting the con artist, Joe Rogan, Elon Musk and other degenerates fill that void.

We need good men to stand up and redifine what being a good man really means. We need men to show that being a good leader requires intelligence, respect, compassion and an open mind. The men buying into the con artist's movement think leadership is about bullying, cruelty, disrespect and trolling.
