Leftism, technology, and the destruction of young men and women

Two polls show that our young people are in deep trouble. Men are emotionally isolated, while women are so filled with hatred for the world in which they find themselves that they want to run away from America altogether. This is what happens when leftism infects women, leaving men to the computer’s cold embrace.

The poll on American young men’s social isolation is a few months old, but it takes on new currency in light of what we just learned about America’s young women. Thus, in May, media outlets exploded with stories about a Gallup poll that revealed that young men in America are desperately lonely:

A new Gallup poll has revealed that American men are the loneliest people.(snip)

Some of that loneliness may result from technology, as young men spend an inordinate amount of time playing video games; 62% of teen boys identify as “gamers,” compared to only 17% of girls. There are other factors, though, which I’ll get to in a minute, and which may explain young men’s dependency on games, to the complete avoidance of real life.

Meanwhile, young American women aren’t doing so well either. Gallup just released a poll about the “record numbers” of young women who want to leave America:(snip)

In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014 (snip)

So, what’s going on here? Well, as you may have guessed, I have a theory, and as you also may have figured out already, it starts with leftism or, more specifically, feminism.

If they think men are mot also unhappy with the current state of the world, wrong...

Let these women go to Europe and welcome immigrants from the Third World. I’m sure it will work out great for them.

In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity.

And 85% of all children 3 to 12 say they would move to DisneyLand permanently, if they had the opportunity.

Makes about as much sense!

The best outcome for society is for Men and Women to form relationships and live happily ever after.

But if that does not happen, it seems to me that most Men can live as a single person and focus on hobbies and really achieve a lot of happiness.

Some women can do that too. But I think that most Women are pretty miserable by themselves and desperately want to be part of a couple.

Therefore, if there is a solution to this, I suggest that women change themselves to improve the odds of getting what they want. Men have less incentive to change anything, because they are happy with what they have. Modern feminism is making women miserable. And any man who gets stuck with a feminist is going to be miserable too.

The push to abolish boys sport from youth and only give girls activities to meet social justice warriors has created the loneliness. When I was bullied in school and threatened I had to become a loner to avoid death threats. It got to the point people lied about me with nasty lies.

The War Against Boys creates this mess.

Charlie Kirk was killed for saying that young people should get married, have kids and buy a home. That was called hate speech that deserves a violent response. Sad.

Feminist gyno centric US has been in full force for well over a decade. And look at the decline.

I can understand the frustration of young men when many young women cover themselves with tattoos, have very unattractive piercings especially those ridiculous half moon nose rings and color their hair in idiotic colors. Many young women also are being taught that men are toxic and are embracing transgenderism. One need only to look at the coeds at many colleges and universities to see how the left has destroyed traditional values in women that men biologically find attractive. Fortunately I still see a few young women who are looking for traditional relationships with men leading to marriage and children.
