  1. - The jobs are valued based on demand and supply; not whether a woman is doing them or not. - Men’s jobs aren’t inherently more valued than women’s. See this chart. Many men’s jobs are more dangerous and less profitable than many women’s jobs. - Women themselves choose to prioritize spending time with family and doing housework over working more and seeking men who earn more to provide for this. Thats not the fault of patriarchy. If it is; this is women’s fault for upholding it. Men do more housework and more child care than ever before, yet marriage rates are collapsing and attacks on men’s role only amplify. The whole “emotional labor” thing is nonsense, women have far more demands for a man to support her emotionally than the other way around. If a woman said she broke up with him because he never brought her flowers, or gifts, or listened to her talk about her problems, that’s expected, if a man said that people would think he’s strange.
  2. There’s no evidence women are paid half of what they deserve. They earn less as a whole but that’s primarily because they earn less by working less and in less profitable fields. In most western countries paying a woman less for being a woman is legally discrimination. https://fee.org/articles/harvard-study-gender-pay-gap-explained-entirely-by-work-choices-of-men-and-women/ If you’re counting “unpaid labor” like housework and raising children, that happens generally in the context of a man providing for them by spending more hours working. That need would also exist regardless because of the property or child. Women don’t do most of the labor in the world. Men as a whole work more hours. As a whole men are larger contributors to tax revenue while women are less. Meaning men as a group disproportionately are doing labor that is taxed and women as a group disproportionately receive government resources using said taxes. No, studies find women are more selective and have higher demands than men for partners https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/behavioral-and-brain-sciences/article/sex-differences-in-human-mate-preferences-evolutionary-hypotheses-tested-in-37-cultures/0E112ACEB2E7BC877805E3AC11ABC889 Men working more is also a contributing reason why men die sooner than women. Survey data finds working fathers would like to work less and spend more time with their families. This is isn’t a system men collectively decided to do. If a man said he’ll be the house husband and his wife can just work and provide for him while he watches the kids most women reject this split of duties Insofar as that’s true that’s an expectation for all people for any hardship. People need to take precautions and recover from threats and seek restitution provide evidence for action to be taken.
  3. Because chivalry affords women a variety of privileges from major to minor. Minor: open doors for them, pay for dates, generally get more positive regard in some cases Major: priorities in safety and assistance. An example is how when ships crash women and children are evacuated first. A study found when men were instructed to treat women with benevolent sexism they rated them as nice and normal, but when men were told to treat women exactly as they would a man, women perceived them as hostile sexists https://uwspace.uwaterloo.ca/items/0338425c-d7c7-4c4e-b7be-cacf9946dcd0 It isn’t, there are many other explanations. Men are less likely to take vacations and more likely to work overtime. Surveys find in careers men focus more on money and are more likely to take risks. Women are more likely to choose to work less after they have children to spend more time caring for them whereas men are more likely to work more. Men also report more interest in increasing their status and advancement to leadership roles.
  4. Based on what? How do you know it isn’t something else?
  5. Because fairness is just one metric. There is also survival, liberty, caring, etc. If patriarchy was just about exploiting women it wouldn’t have developed chivalry and assigned men to dangerous tasks. If it was just about exploiting nature there wouldn’t be conservation efforts in most cultures.
  6. The truth is there never was a patriarchy as feminists understand it. Traditional cultures evolved for both men and women to have benefits and sacrifices. One clear example of this is looking at the women who were against women’s suffrage, one of their main arguments was it could lead to women losing privileges such as not being drafted like men were. Feminism is now incoherent because it wants to retain female privileges while dismantling male privileges but inadvertently makes women’s lives worse and cause damage to society which they blame on patriarchy. See hook up culture, the natural outgrowth of what happens when feminists reduced traditional dating norms.
  7. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19997098/ Study: To me this study debunks claims about patriarchal structures being socially conditioned, as we see the male hormone can increase desire for fairness. It also explains how women’s bias towards men caused by false feminist understandings leads to actually worse behavior when they feel they need to replicate male behaviors to succeed, they assume they should behave less fairly because they were given the male hormone.
  8. Trump has announced they are finalizing a deal with Iran. On truth social he refers to it as “the Islamic republic of Iran”. Leaks so far: Currently neocons are panicking on Twitter, AIPAC is retweeting people bashing the deal. So the US and Israel aims of regime change, resolving nuclear issue, dealing with missile and proxy threat, so far are unaddressed. However Iran is getting financial relief.
  9. I mean like how Cal Newport teaches it
  10. Just some things you say and how you phrase it sounds similar to what I read elsewhere related to it
  11. Have you ever been psychologically evaluated for any personality disorders? I’m not asking as a dig, it’s a genuine question.
  12. Recently he pushed back hard on one of his long time guests in Elon Musks orbit and criticizes Palantir
  13. We basically need to ban money in politics and do a massive corruption sweep, then nationalize big tech and the media giants. This is getting ridiculous and they’re going to destroy us all if they aren’t stopped.
