Thanks for writing this truth. Misogyny often hides under "religious freedom" and other rationalizations for controlling women. So many weak men believe they are entitled to a submissive female. Bullshit. Grow up.
The fact that a disgraced academic like Jordan Peterson can sellout the concert hall down the street from my house is outright terrifying. What's more terrifying is that there is little in terms of a counterbalance - there are few anti-misogynists who can speak to impressionable young men who don't come off as weak willed weirdos or craven opportunists.
This goes back "anti-woke" piece - if the Far Right is saying horrible things but reaffirming your value as a man while the Far Left is telling you are personally at fault for all the rapes and ethnic genocides on the planet - you probably will align yourself with the former. The Far Left is very good at talking to themselves while believing that they can speak for others - the Far Right is unbeaten in speaking to the disillusioned while being laser focused on fascist structures.
I agree this is disgusting and evil and should be fervently resisted. Which is why I critize the Ds for not doing whaf it takes to head it off. Excuses and permissiveness on the Ds side leads to this, as sans enforcement and firm resistence, people without morals will go all out, a different circumstance that shares qualities with the "broken windows" problem. Bottom line: we need the Ds to pass laws, no excuses, to stop this. We need them to fight. And they havent. They havent because at the core their supporters never demand they deal with anything because they know people will always say "Vote Blue No Matter What", rather than those souls demanding action. This is alsi a broken windows issue. So the question I have, as I have always had, is this: why arent the Ds passing laws and enforcing existant ones to deal with this. Unless you have an affirmation, why would you expect anyone to vote for people who wont fight to.pass countermeasures?

"They want to destroy your family and brainwash your children."
"They can't handle it — they're sensitive babies"
Say it with me: EVERY ACCUSATION THE RIGHT WING MAKES IS A CONFESSION.
