#toxicmasculinity

it seems more fucked up a middle class, middle aged businessman and father of 3 ends up as suspect for deliberately #driving through a crowd of people and causing multiple injuries in #England (still a relatively stable, affluent country in Northern #Europe) as an act of pure #RoadRage and #ToxicMasculinity *rather* than any #terrorism / political motive

It makes you wonder if *any* supposedly normal person on the roads is capable of snapping and committing such an act simply because something up ahead is preventing them driving their car at the speed they want to proceed at (and will also make things even harder for any outdoor or public event organisers as they will have more security/surveillance procedures to implement if the venue is anywhere near live traffic)

Clearly a case where #ToxicMasculinity has overtaken rational thought - I suspect whoever did this simply doesn't care they are likely to get 20+ years porridge - #stabbing someone in a #bank in broad daylight is almost certain to result in #arrest - there's #CCTV all over these places and has been for 50+ years! #UK #crime #Midlands #Derby

4 teenagers arrested after a #stabbing in #Cambridgeshire - this does look like a targeted attack, also the lads arrested came from areas some distance away where it would be difficult to get to without access to a car - its a warning how bad #ToxicMasculinity has become if they put all that effort into travelling just to commit this #crime (and these things often happen over trivial reasons)

#Building sites must have #toilets by law (if the ones in the houses are not suitable to use, maybe not yet plumbed in) - if the #builders are leaving #piss bottles around then it seems like its done as a deliberate "fuck you" to their employers and the end customers as they hate them and their jobs (likely linked to incel / manosphere behaviour) #construction #trades #ToxicMasculinity

"An entire generation of men has been conditioned to embrace the worst aspects of an alleged 'strongman.' Trump is the flagbearer, and he has minions all across social media and right-wing news outlets. They understand that politics runs downstream from culture and can Trojan horse their authoritarian politics through sports, gambling, video games, and comedy."

The Guardian · Trump’s very beautiful tariffs will fix America, masculinity and the family. It said so on Fox NewsBy Arwa Mahdawi

A number of commentators today are noting the attempt of the Trump regime and its epigones to spin the tariff madness (and destruction) as boys being boys, a favorite theme of Republicans, since one can hardly blame boys for behaving like boys. Bless their hearts, behaving badly is just what men do after all, Republicans love to inform us.

On this topic, see Media Matters on Fox News' spin of the tariffs as "manly."

Media Matters for AmericaFox news chyron: "Trump's manly tariffs"

As Evan Hurst notes, Vera Papisova spent a year dating alt-right men to find out what makes them tick (this is so difficult to figure out?) and ended up comculding that on the whole they're “erratic, violent and incapable of managing their emotions." But, get this, "we" are somehow responsible that they're that way, since "we" have pushed them into isolation.

Himpathy much?
