From someone I shall not name:
"As a man who owes his very existence to Third Way politics, I often ponder if modern life has killed masculinity.
I'm not one of those idiots promoting some "alpha chad mentality", but I believe that the world got a little more bureaucratic in ways that make most men silently frustrated.
Not all men fought wars, not all men conquered lands, not all men ventured into the unknown. But there once was a time when some men did it, and this was enough. The thought of "this is something that I could do if I wanted to" is slowly dying, and with it, we are plunging into a sad, uneventful life.
Men lift big chunks of metal to get big in order to do absolutely nothing. Men spend their entire lives mastering karate or some other martial art in order to never use it. Men hoard guns they'll only use to either off themselves or their loved ones if they're unlucky enough. Men run around their block just in order to build stamina which they'll use to look at spreadsheets for 8-10 hours every day.
The few men who take up arms are either killed in drone strikes or labeled as monsters, and their stories quickly disappear, lest they become role models.
It's no wonder that the internet is filled with opinionated youths who, more often than not, share the most disgusting opinions online while they're completely passive in real life.
The world is breaking some things that have always existed, and we're gonna be the ones to fare into the actual unknown.
Civilization, as it seems, is truly taking over even the indomitable human spirit."
