Breaking: Where are the REAL men in America?
Twitter/X ^ | September 8, 2026 | General Mike Flynn

Posted on 09/08/2026 2:59:38 PM PDT by packagingguy

Too many men have quit the workforce. They simply have decided not to work, not provide for their families, or offer leadership for their sons.

The family unit has been collapsing in America for decades now partially because the man in the house decided comfort was more important than duty.

They have been spoiled.

Soft hands and weak spines.

A generation of boys are being raised on screens instead of sweat. They know every video game and almost nothing about a job that leaves dirt under their fingernails.

Reality for our nation is coming whether they (we) want it or not. A man who will not carry his load is not a man the country can afford.

Men, GET BACK TO WORK!

When you choose to be unemployed, you become “self-unemployed.”


I believe the term now is “Independent Consultant.”

End H-1b visas and stop all immigration and then start bitching about people not working.

I was an independent consultant for a time, and I was actually working!

I’ve also been self-unemployed.

Women have demanded nothing from them. They have taken on the role of providing birth control, nothing more than allowing men to use them as objects. Not wives not mothers.

Majority of men have been ok with women preventing and aborting their offspring.

How can they have self respect? They sit in the stands of the NFL, NBA allowing players to disrespect the flag. They let the men and women of the military be the only ones protecting our country

As Matt Walsh said about women just today- you got what you wanted now you’re complaining

The family has been broken. Men need the family. They have allowed this very much as much as women.

I don’t know where I first read it but some psychologists say people will continue with behavior for which they are rewarded.

Males have been shunted aside, put down, parodied, propagandized in thousands of hours of TV ads and sitcoms and told if they succeed at something in a profession it means they are sexist and toxic and have kept a woman from getting the achievement.

That will all change overnight as soon as the next big war comes.

I’ve been thinking for the past 20 that the only solution to what you stated is a reset, of sorts. Scares the hell out of me in terms of extent.

Come on now, males control everything still, especially on a global scale. Once one figures that out you will understand how idiotic these males are that try to fit a large square peg into a small circle.

Their problem is that younger males have figured this out and checked out in order to disrupt the system the idiotic males created. Coincides with the younger remnant of males seeking Spiritual growth/Christ right now. Another aspect is for males to grift off the system as well in order to destroy that which is 180 degrees out of phase. Feminism and illegal immigration, which these idiotic males promote and leverage, have a lot to do with this.

Men generally do not qualify for cash welfare benefits in the same way that women do, as most welfare programs, like Aid to Families with Dependent Children, primarily support single mothers and their children. While men may receive some assistance, such as food stamps, they are less likely to access cash benefits

” A man who will not carry his load is not a man the country can afford.”

‘We’ are where society told us to be. At home and minimizing contact to the revenuers. ‘We’ are not interested in carrying our load and the load for welfare slobs and foreign turds who have made ripping off tax payers a career choice.

The last thing I want to do is work extra hours when illegal Mexicans and Somali trash complain they aren’t getting enough free stuff.

Yes they do, and white males that are single with no kids can easily get on the public dole. “Disability” is the “most lovely word” for every dependent. If you know how to play “the game” its money for nothing despite any regulation enacted and then redacted. You remember the ? suited government gibs salesman in the late 80’s and 90’s hardly anything has been shutdown in terms of individual hardships on a State and Federal level.

One can greatly reduce the range of the search for real men by not bothering to check anyone on the left.
