funny part about “Kamala campaign can’t target men” is that they can’t target men because they refuse to employ the crass humor needed to effectively target the kind of men they currently fail to target. They know what they have to do, they simply aren’t strong enough to do it.
They lost because they won’t say slurs. People are not ready for this conversation.
Hadn’t thought of this before, but it makes sense. Men just won’t take you seriously if you’re offended by or scared of words.
Straight from one of the shittier parts of the fediverse.
I hate when people say “people are not ready for this conversation”, it just shows they are completely uninterested in any actual discussion about the matter. If anyone responds with any criticism, even if it’s very reasonable, they’ll just say “told you people weren’t ready for it lol”.
Kamala retained more male Biden voters than female. So these people need to let go of this line
Neoliberals will do anything to find some culture-war issue to scapegoat so that they don’t have to admit that voters hate their economic policy.

These kinds of men that are constantly focused on what it means to be a ‘man’ are the biggest fucking insecure snowflakes of them all. These are the kind of people who act like their entire race and gender is being erased when 1 in 10 Marvel movies don’t have a white male lead. When all attention isn’t on them, they spit their pacifiers out and wail.
Take this election for example. It wasn’t about them. Even if they don’t care about queer people (we know they don’t), it was also about doing the right thing for their mothers and their sisters and their daughters. But because the poor, hard done by white man wasn’t given as much importance as people who are literally getting their rights taken away, they decided join the oppressors and spit in their mothers’ faces.
Not because they’re men but because they’re pieces of shit.
I think it is actually worse than what you describe. Even just ignoring all the social issues and focusing on economic factors seriously would have made Trump an unelectable candidate but they prioritize their culture wars over everything else, that whole “I don’t care if it hurts me as long as it hurts them more” mindset is strong with them.
You just said it. They are saying the quiet part out loud. They don’t attack the right people to get the racists, misogynists, or generally bigoted assholes on their side.
The biggest “snowflakes” have always been conservatives. So afraid of anyone who doesn’t look or act like them.
