Young US men are joining Russian churches promising 'absurd levels of manliness' - lemm.ee

Lemmy

While all of you meme and joke and minimize the threat, a rising wave of disaffected boys has grown up under the most toxic of social environments and still NONE of you take this seriously.

When you see the world in ten years time you will kick yourselves for doing nothing to stop it now in its infancy

Stop what? Stop it how? Suddenly make every parent in the US loving, compassionate, and effective at raising their children? Or maybe we could just fix the economy? One of those is bound to work.

There is no easy solution and the fact your dismissive and snarky reply is so upvoted is kind of proof that there is no fixing the situation anymore

The hard solution is to first deplatform their demagogues but since they make their media platforms ridiculous money, it isn’t changing

There’s also a significant possibility we simply won’t be having real elections in America anymore so the chance to get progressive people in office to curb this is over

You got all mad for people posting no real solution and when given the chance, offered no real solution
I literally gave the solution in the comment you replied to
I’m sure you think you did

But how can I deplatform the demagogues? It seems impossible. What you proposed sounds nearly as unattainable as the snarky “Suddenly make every parent in the US loving, compassionate, and effective at raising their children”.

I’m not in charge of the demagogues platforms. The platforms have no need to respond to social protests since the demagogues make them money. The majority of moderate people will not ever care enough to stop using a platform that supports evil. Tons of people still use facebook even when they KNOW about all those scandals, because they feel like it’s just not a big problem, and ultimately because they just like using facebook.

Your proposed solution just feels a lot like the how to draw an owl meme.
