where are our powerful billionaire and trillionaire overlords? funding scientific research to prevent the worst asap? why are they not held responsible?
yeah narcissism can temporarily make one interesting until the other person realizes what they got themself into, thats how people end up in abusive relationships
I found that I want to think of this as "we already know what's up", and instead of waiting for the next crumbles to be dropped we need to take action.
be that boycotting big tech, trash food, or talking about the disgusting facts, helping kids (and ourselves) getting away from our phones, and leaen how to "human" again. or demonstrations, or flyers to inform people in easy language. replace one meal a week with a vegan one. any small change helps.
"I'm open to the idea of women only spaces if they serve a function"
who asked though? these spaces are for healing and safety and those who need to heal and recharge make the rules. we dont need your okay to create space the way we need it.
that doesn't prevent other/additional groups forming which ALSO include men, any queer folks, nb, trans.
and those people know that.
so what exactly is the problem with women only safe spaces?
sure: when (and that is quite often unfortunately) women who seek these spaces have been abused by men repeatedly and can't risk another trauma trigger.
and feminist men know where they're welcome. so it's rarely (in my own experience never) truly feminist men who want to join those spaces because they understand boundaries.
good point, but I fear that just creating male only spaces will not solve the problem with male loneliness. as can be seen in x-pill communities.
what men need to heal male loneliness is learn about how patrairchy has shaped their fathers & generations beyond, and how they haven't learned to approach emotions in a healthy way.
a good book I HIGHLY recommend men to read is
Bell Hooks - "The will to change"
she explains what damage patriarchy did to men and how to access and feel emoti8ns fully
I wish for all men to be seen fully in your entire vulnerability.
we're waiting for you.
