    Sorry Charlie, I disagree. Here’s my version.

    If you outsource your critical thinking to someone else and follow their instructions simply because they question your masculinity, then you’re not a man.

    Is this the “I need a strongman leader because I’m insecure about my masculinity”?

      Is it surprising? The whole base that votes for these idiots drive lifted F150’s with bald eagles on the back and their punisher stickers everywhere

        Yeah if they were pushing for someone like the Governator being allowed to become President I could understand. Arnold is an actual conservative, is still a beast, and climbed to the peak of success in multiple career paths.

        But nope. Let’s worship a fatass, idiot, loser. Who finances his fake billionaire lifestyle one new loan at a time. After pissing away the fortune his dad created being a slum lord.

    Any time someone like Charlie Kirk starts talking about manliness I interpret it as him saying this is what he wants in a man

    Maybe I am crazy, but I think that “being a real man” requires you to be equally “manly” regardless of the environment you are in. If being in the presence of a LGBTQ+ person threatens your “manliness”, then you are no man. If respecting and defending a woman’s rights over her own body, and equal rights threatens your masculinity, then you are no man. If the only way you can be a man is by living in government enforced constant bubble of misogyny, racism and phobias (trans, homo, xeno, etc), then you are no man. You are a scared little boy refusing to come out of your safe space hidey-hole.
