We Asked Young Men Why They Voted for Donald Trump--Here's What They Said [View all] Nevilledog Nov 15 OP

I fucking figured all of that "patriarchy" talk along with "toxic masculinity" would start to turn off young, white men. SoFlaBro Nov 15 #1

Young white men wanted to be "turned off". It's rationalization for bad behavior. Walleye Nov 15 #3

I said it multiple times here - only to be told I was wrong. PeaceWave Nov 15 #5

You are wrong Cirsium Nov 15 #31

Right up there with Christians being persecuted TexasBushwhacker Nov 15 #33

Exactly Cirsium Nov 15 #40

Not out of date at all - it is alive and strong in Texas TBF Nov 15 #105

If the shoe fits... AZSkiffyGeek Nov 15 #6

If they are offended by "patriarchy" and "toxic masculinity" they need to ask themselves why. Coventina Nov 15 #8

My white husband and three Bettie Nov 15 #20

And they wonder why we choose the bear NT AZSkiffyGeek Nov 15 #24

Based on the division it created in our own party, I wonder if that bear was Russian. PeaceWave Nov 15 #25

Or maybe women are sick of patronizing men telling them not to worry about toxic masculinity and the patriarchy AZSkiffyGeek Nov 15 #28

Exactly... I'm. A white man... Happy Hoosier Saturday #132

Neither is mine. Neither is my son. Neither are my sons in law. CTyankee Saturday #135

Young women are certainly turned off by the patriarchy and the toxic masculinity of Republicans. Quiet Em Nov 15 #46

So to coin one of their favorite catchphrases Blue_Tires Nov 15 #61

The truth is a turnoff. I quit caring about them a long time ago. valleyrogue Nov 15 #68

Based on most of the replies in this thread, Democrats still don't get it. Ex Lurker Nov 15 #71

Thank you! I am 100% for trans rights and inclusion. But I know that I fucking can't convince a Rogan listener leading SoFlaBro Nov 15 #82

Proving yet again, you can't fix stupid. CanonRay Nov 15 #4

It is self sabotage to demonize the single biggest voting block. We're supposed to be inclusive. PeaceWave Nov 15 #7

I'm sorry but I'm not going to include people who want to hurt and or kill people. onecaliberal Nov 15 #11

Not all young white men "want to hurt and or kill people." PeaceWave Nov 15 #12

Yes I know. I gave birth to two of them and am married to another. onecaliberal Nov 15 #15

You're wrong. "The overwhelming majority of young white men do NOT hurt and kill people." PeaceWave Nov 15 #17

"Not All Men" AZSkiffyGeek Nov 15 #21

They aren't the largest voting bloc. White women are. Nt spooky3 Nov 15 #18

We've tried to include them and they rejected us Blue_Tires Nov 15 #58

You have to be kidding. Seriously. They can't be fixed. n/t valleyrogue Nov 15 #69

I am so fucking tired of men taking everything said about men as a personal affront to themselves. intheflow Nov 15 #26

Perhaps so many young men has been bypassed in recent years being that the IT revolution bypassed a lot of them, SWBTATTReg Nov 15 #29

Will your response be similarly dismissive when AI "bypasses" millions over the next decade? PeaceWave Nov 15 #32

Yes, but the thing I didn't add the first time was that millions of new jobs were created back then, and will be when SWBTATTReg Nov 15 #34

I think, as do many others, that AI is going to be seismic, resulting in massive job losses... PeaceWave Nov 15 #35

I think a overreaction. People really don't know at this point what AI truly is yet. The tech is so new, that even IT, SWBTATTReg Nov 15 #47

I'm close to retirement in an unrelated field. My primary concern is for the next generation. PeaceWave Nov 15 #48
