I mean, ya gotta be careful. Are they conservative because they are lonely, or are they lonely because they are conservative
I suspect that women aren't dating conservative men, not because they want to punish them, but because they would personally rather not date a horrible person.
It's a pretty bad spiral. Lonely men develop more extremist views, which makes them less attractive to women, which makes them lonelier, and they get even more extremist views, etc.
Like, if you lined all of the single men up who vote against women's rights, and asked an equal number of women to sacrifice their own happiness to date them, a certain number of those horrible men would turn a corner and start to act like a human. But who is going to give up their own happiness to fix some broken asshole stranger? Very few people.
You can't put that on the women. Men have got to get their shit together. Just show a bit of empathy, bro! It's not that hard, humans are literally wired for it. It's just that capitalism is reinforcing humankind's worst impulses.
There is a whole industries to radicalize men. They try to get them hooked with "women don't want to date me" and get them on the social media conveyor belt towards becoming a good right wing radical that's immune to any logic.
Pick up scenes, and now right wing grifters sole job is to gather as much conservative voters as possible to sustain conservative governments.
Absolutely don’t put that on women, but it is a mental illness so you can’t ask them to get their shit together they need help.
I suspect that women aren’t dating conservative men, not because they want to punish them, but because they would personally rather not date a horrible person.
Considering how many women remain in an abusive relationship, I'm not sure that conservative men have less chances.
Its called Internalised Misogyny
Women who experience internalized misogyny may express it through minimizing the value of women, mistrusting women, and showing gender bias in favor of men. Women, after observing societal beliefs which demean the value and skills of women repeatedly, eventually internalize those misogynistic beliefs and apply them to themselves and other women.
I accidentally watched an interview to some right-wing incels, and I'd say that they were lonely because they fail as human being.
There are a lot of progressive men that are lonely. I'd say, I fall under that category. And woof, dating as a progressive man ain't no walk in the park.
I’m a 42 year old man with a cat and still single due to living in a very rural republican area and all women here are hardcore Trump fans so I’ll just stay single and spend time with my cat.
Wise choice.
Thanks. Also her name is mojo.
omg! I LOVE her!
Cute derpy face
I see you understood your assignment before we even needed to tell you =D
It must be hard to find friends too in that area. Hope you are doing fine.
I do alright, it’s crazy just like most things seeing people and friends you grew up with slowly becoming brainwashed and you having to distance yourself from them. Like most conservative people Covid broke and still is breaking a lot of people’s minds here.
Wanna date me? I'm Canadian and I have a really sexy permanent residence card waiting for you. Bats eyelashes.
Hey, wanna marry me and my wife?
My wife and I are looking for cats

Command 'cat' not found

The fuck kinda system you running
Red Hat = No Cat
Oooooh, that joke went right over my head hah
That gives me anxiety on a few levels.
Authoritarians are probably less likely to keep cats, either because they’re not obedient/useful or because keeping cats is coded as feminine and thus contemptible.
As someone left of Mamdani, why should my choice of Linux distro prevent me from having a loving feline pet?
Enterprises don't get pets. Why else would you use RH?
People usually want romantic partners to have a heart and a brain, and redhats and libertarians have neither.
Meanwhile, all the progressive poly guys I know who have figured out how to deeply respect women have more partners than they really have time for. And quite a few of them are not "good looking" by any conventional standard (though some are).
like one youtubers i used to follow, there are someone for everyone. even killers/serial killers have a partner of some sort, despite knowing that they are murderers. not good looking, but have a very fun or attractive personality. the common thing that steers people away, is being broke(although not always the case), hygiene and dressing well seems to be a major one.
men with pets often gets attention too, it makes you look less creepy and more of a normal person and a potential parent.(thats why there are so many thirst traps of men(although they are already attractive) pet animal videos, like with the dodo.
That's how I found my wife. She was very impressed with my love and care for the last living dodo, which I keep safe from extinction solely for selfish purposes.
Good. There are values and traits that should not procreate.
Did anyone rise think this was about folks who use a paid version of Linux?
Bunch of em are probably on Grindr with each other
"Grab 'em by the lack of pussy."
