Exactly. The response among the left seems to be "ha, fuck em" which is a terrible plan

You also have issues where high-school educated men have not seen any major benefits to any typical liberal or conservative ideology within the past generation.

On the conservative end, the jobs that the men would have gone into have seen wages and benefits stagnate or drop.

On the liberal end, the status of white men in society has dropped to a more level playing field with class status or wealth being a more defining factor, something which they don't have.

Alt-right conservatives are addressing the economic issues by restricting the work force (anti-immigration) and increasing the jobs in resource extraction (trashing all environmental laws). On social issues, the alt-right head of family is the man.

while the conservative boys’ complaints are about a bunch of imaginary nonsense.

The verbalized complaints, yes.

The passive misandry that's pushing boys right is a very real thing.

Same. The world seemed so simple back then, until I matured. I suspect a lot of people are emotionally stuck

In many ways I still consider myself libertarian, but moreso in anti authority leaning than Republican but with a cooler label. Many of my peers in highschool and university clicked with the pro guns, pro expression sentiment, but when it came actually letting queer people and religious minorities live their lives, or allowing women control over their own bodies and healthcare, they always seemed to side with the Authoritarians in power threatening the to restrict these people. Not to mention many of them had no problem with authority as long as it came from a corporate entity or oligarch.

I still identify with the term Libertarian, but have stopped using it because it truly doesn't represent what it was supposed to mean anymore.

No, those personalities rose due to the mainstream (mainly left) not being able to discuss normal masculinity and overall only portraying masculinity as something toxic. When you go in one radical direction, you get radical response (Tate, etc).

We need normal, non-partisan discussion and stance towards masculinity.

I read a great WaPo article on this recently. Basically on the left, no one can define healthy masculinity and it's really opened up a spot for the right wing to swoop in and define it for us.

This, want it or not, it is not hard for boys to feel incredibly alienated in the left hemisphere. We gone from "girls have issues too" to "only girls can have issues". It's ridiculous, and even more ridiculous when you remember that girls reach their growth spurt sooner than boys, effectively eliminating many of the purported advantages of boys over girl, making them feel even more alienated.
