Please.
The person in the photo is weak not because he cries on TV, but because he entirely argues in bad faith, has little idea what he actually believes, and is fully engaged in a culture war, with little focus except fearmongering and resisting anything that might make the world somewhat lively in a crazed aspiration to “rebuild” western civilization.
This meme is sexist itself; I don’t care that the person in the photo is a hypocrite. It is petty to the point it essentially platforms the person depicted.
Please be part of a cultural movement. The news used to bring on people from outrageous movements to mock them and instead it simply promoted those groups to a wider audience. The news has somewhat learned and you can see how delicately the NYT tries to dismantle Yarvinism.
Please please don’t platform hateful people. I’m here to escape them.
He is also weak for not staying composed while being broadcast on TV. Control of one's emotions is a skill and takes strength. I'm not saying it's wrong to be weak though, everyone has their moments.
benzos does that to you.
Thank you for bringing up that this "self reliance, tough people etc" guy is a fucking junkie
