Don’t get defensive about this statement or I will punch your head in. 5 reasons why toxic masculinity is a real problem? Seriously though folks, it is, because it doesn’t just occur on the personal level it impacts across the whole spectrum. Vladimir Putin displays toxic masculinity via his actions invading Ukraine as the leader of Russia. The behaviour of the Russian President can only be described as toxic masculinity. Taking what you want violently against the wishes of another, when you know full well it is not yours to take.
“Toxic masculinity refers to a collection of offensive, harmful beliefs, tendencies, and behaviors rooted in traditional male roles but taken to an extreme. This dangerous idea of “manliness” perpetuates domination, homophobia, and aggression and can be harmful to the mental health of all genders. It also can have serious social consequences, which is how it became known as toxic masculinity.”
Life as a pissing contest, where only the strong survive, is what this shit boils down to in the end. So, we have an ongoing war, where many thousands die and are horribly wounded. All so that Putin and his Russian bullies can conquer another country and its peoples. This was all about control and domination right from the start. 5 reasons why toxic masculinity is a real problem?
Toxic Masculinity In Russia & Israel
However you cannot quarantine toxic masculinity when let rampant to crush and kill the innocent. It is not only the people of Ukraine who must suffer terribly. No, it spreads to other places and territories. Netanyahu in Israel decides to obliterate Gaza in response to the attacks by Hamas. This overkill is another example of toxic masculinity leading to the genocide and mass murder of more than 70, 000 Palestinians, many of them women and children. There is no moral justification for this level of murderous destruction, no matter what the provocation was. This is toxic masculinity gone mad with drones, bombs and missiles. 5 reasons why toxic masculinity is a real problem?

Righteousness is drummed up in op eds and by virulent talking heads. Toxic masculinity flames up in imagined battle fevers. A generation of men lacking purpose in a digitally controlled world hunger for some impassioned violence. Old white men pull the online strings to direct the ire of the mob.

Trump Toxic Masculinity Cheer Leader
Donald Trump is a champion of toxic masculinity. A born rich white guy who has sued his way to notoriety. His credo is never admit you’re wrong and never apologise. Trump lies like there is no tomorrow. That he has reached the apogee of American success is testament to a male dominated world where money talks louder than any conceptions of what is morally right or wrong. Americans have bought the Trump schtick, along with golden sneakers, bibles, watches and meme coins. A real estate salesman, conman, grifter and convicted felon, nothing has halted the Teflon Don. Young guys admire his balls, even at 79.
Dealing With The Spread Of Violent Behaviours
5 reasons why toxic masculinity is a real problem? Now that Putin, Netanyahu and Trump have unleashed toxic masculinity upon the geopolitical world everyone else has to beef up their defences to meet the violent incursions this can bring. Arms sales go up, as they have been for the last couple of years. The military becomes front and centre in the minds of many. China has long been the bogeyman of the West. Somehow it is not right for an economic superpower to become a military power, especially if they are not Anglo-European. White is always right. News Corp warns us all about the China danger. Australia spends $368 billion on nuclear powered submarines that are due to arrive on the never, never. It is the thought that counts, apparently.
Economic Toxic Masculinity = Tariffs
Trump’s tariffs imposed upon all nations, whether friend or foe, sends an awful message, especially to longtime allies. The United States has become an unhinged superpower spreading unreliability and chaos around the globe. WW2 was the result the last time the US imposed onerous tariffs around the world. Economic pain most often leads to bombs and bullets in pretty short order. Trump has assembled the greatest bunch of extremist nutjobs to run the country ever seen in American history. He scraped up some of these folk from the detritus of pay TV celebrity, Fox News actually. MAGA can be rest assured that elitism has no home inside the shallow concerns of these individuals.
Christmas Comes Early To The Proud Boys
The Proud Boys have found a new calling called ICE. These exemplars of toxic masculinity wear masks to cover their faces, probably because they all have criminal records as long as their… You know, what I mean. Christmas has come early to the violent militias because now they can beat up brown skinned Americans legally. Jackboots are on the ground in American cities of the blue variety, Chicago, Washington DC, LA and New York. Trump wants to cast fear about as fascist leaders of yesteryear often did. Heavily armed soldiers on the streets of America is the Trump legacy.
Toxic Masculinity At Home
Toxic masculinity threatens, bullies and bashes. DV victims know all about that on the home front. Intimate violence perpetrated upon women to control them. 5 reasons why toxic masculinity is a real problem? Well, there are more than 5 listed here but it is a much bigger issue than most of us realise. There is no good authoritarian strongman leader, only violent thugs.
“Think about some of the words that start with ‘P’. Prince, power, penis, paedophile, perpetrator, prince, penis, power and paedophile. The ‘P’ words. Prince Andrew and the P words that cost him his title. Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, has become the latest victim of the long running Jeffrey Epstein saga. Hang on, it might not be right to call him a victim, as he was, by all accounts a perpetrator. OK, perhaps, he is finally starting to get some of his just desserts. It is funny, peculiar, that a former prince is really the first powerful man, who was a customer of Epstein’s sex trafficking, to pay any kind of price for his morally wrong and possibly illegal behaviour. I mean, Epstein pimped and trafficked thousands of girls over a decade or two to lots of his wealthy male clients. Many of these girls were underage and most of them were ill used via a great capitalist imbalance of power. Rich men buying sexual favours from poor girls, who very likely were not getting a fair deal out of it, but Jeffery and Ghislaine likely were to their advantage.”
