I’m sorry to tell you but that is the entire history of the US presidential election system. Before the mid-1800s some states didn’t even let the public vote, the legislature of the state selected their electoral representatives who picked the president.

“Voting isn’t marriage, it’s public transport. You’re not waiting for “the one” who’s absolutely perfect: you’re getting the bus, and if there isn’t one to your destination, you don’t not travel- you take the one going closest.”

I’m here for it. If it’s still available :)

Initially, the article brought up a lot of cool things about masculinity, which I didn’t know: notably about how society, sees a crisis of masculinity, at every social change.

However, the article did not wrap this up at all. It resorted to talking about essentially a religious convention, and Trump rally. Then referenced so-called “philosophers” and “scholars” akin to Joe Rogan. This isn’t a fair comparison, it’s literally asking a podcast host to solve a huge social issue.

Additionally for some reason referencing how white men don’t even belong in America because it’s native land; when that is a whole separate issue that we can talk about and needs to be addressed but distracts from the article title.

I would love to talk about this more, but this article really drags men’s mental health + belonging in the dirt and undermines anyone trying to legitimately help men belong in this world in a non-toxic and fulfilling way.
