QUDOSI: As a civilization we’re no longer clear about who and what we are. We have shifted from a nation of innovation to a nation that’s just making things up as it goes along, and that is deeply dangerous. https://thefederalist.com/2019/11/22/men-dont-need-tampons-they-need-fathers/
2/ It’s gotta be hard being a man today. Your entire identity is systematically being scrubbed from existence.

Men are repeatedly told:
• they’re not good enough
• punished for not conforming
• gaslighted into believing they are a distortion of their true nature.
3/ Most cultures have rites of passage to manhood. The challenge today is there is no tribe to witness and celebrate manhood. The most vulnerable point for a boy today is age 14. @SaugusHigh shooter killed himself on his 16th birthday. Violence has become the rite of passage.
4/ Every time we applaud women for raging at men, when we tell boys they’re really girls, when we punish masculinity... there is an extremist saying, “We got you, bro.” #PVE
5/ Honoring fatherhood, here’s my father — one of the most noble men I’ll ever know.
6/ My dad didn’t live long enough to meet his grandson. That role is filled by my uncle, the father of the little boy in the picture above. Moving as a tribe is critical for the mental health of young boys. If we don’t do it, someone else will. #fatherhood
