    I assume by more masculine energy, Zuckerberg means:

    • More posturing by Matt Walsh, Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson and Donald Trump, the US exemplars of manhood.
    • Trolls, more trolls, trolls trolling trolls. People fucking with anyone else that makes them uncomfortable.
    • People boasting about how rich they are, how fast their car goes, and how many women they bed. Comparisons. Leaderboards.
    • Doxing. So much doxing.
    • So much AI porn. So much futa AI porn.
    • So much misogyny. All the misogygy. Al Misogyny. Misogyny leaderboards.
    • Tons of hate speech against the targets of the week. Immigrants, trans folk, Jews Arab Muslims, libs (not liberals, neoliberals or left-wingers, libs )

    Essentially Zuck wants Facebook to become 4chan/b… or 4chan/pol, only where everybody knows your name.

      Probably. As opposed to what masculine used to mean and should mean:

      • Taking responsibility for your actions

      • Taking leadership if you see nobody else is going to

      • Treating others with respect

      Of course, in modern times, we’ve realized this has nothing to do with masculinity or femininity and rather with one’s role in society. If you want to be respectable, these are just some of the things you should be doing.

          Because in a traditional patriarchal society, good and honorable traits are expected of men while women are expected to be inferior to men.

          However as we’ve realized that women are equal to men and should get equal rights, many men have become whiny bitches who yearn for the so called good old days. Said men don’t seem to realize however that “back when men were men” refers to standards they themselves don’t fulfill. They just want the gender inequality back and that’s it.

      It already is. It’s a wasteland of boomer MAGA bullshit. And they all hate him anyway.
