You and me both buddy. That's why I'm trying to fix the problem within myself first. It's a very lengthy project, and that realization has come with some anger at those in society who failed to guide me toward this endeavor because now I'm very far behind where I should have been.
I hear what you're saying.
I can't help but feel my forebears failed me by not recognizing and conquering this evil while it festered and grew in strength, and allowing me to be so weak.
Personal behavior and self-responsibility definitely play a part in the later, but I think a lot of us did not receive the direction in our formative years necessary to foster and maintain a strong civilization -- although those who would come to benefit from our weakness certainly played their part in this.
I don't begrudge them failing to identify and conquer the evil, but I do begrudge them failing to instill the simple lesson that men need to become strong. It's the most basic lesson we all should have been taught from a young age, but for some reason it wasn't provided to us. Now it still falls to us to figure that out for ourselves and take steps to correct the situation, but we were supposed to have some guidance at the outset that never quite materialized for so many of us.
I don't have the statistics on hand, but WWII killed a awful lot of fathers, leaving single mothers raising essentially an entire generation. That was probably where it got its jump start.
I'd honestly lay a lot of the blame on the rise of single moms. Blame men leaving women. Blame women leaving men. Blame whatever. You can argue over all of those till the end of time but regardless of how it happened, the last few decades have shown kids aren't meant to be raised by a single parent and if they are raised by one it definitely shouldn't be by the mom (and that's assuming the mom's actually parenting.)
the "jump start" is the people who push this are the same people who the fathers fought for in ww2.
Not sure if it is the same thing you are pointing at but I hate myself for failing behind. I've been working very hard to catch up. I partly blame it on not having a male model in my life and my mom being a manipulative bitch.
However I do feel that there was some good in the SJW pushing over the top in media.
I've later discovered that I've been putting off personal accomplishment by spending to much time in games or watching funny tv shows. I still do both of those but it is just a way to pass time rather then the good thing in life.
But I've been catching up on things, I'm still behind in my opinion but I've been working hard at work, doing exercises, build a family and now I'm constantly thinking of ways to protect my children from the SJW indoctrination that is going to brainwash them in school.
I had a similar experience. Like yourself, in ways I feel like I realized it all too late. I had a father who was a good man, but a weak man. He instilled none of the most basic values in me that all men need to be whole. He was a people pleaser, a conformist, someone who never went against the grain and always did what he was told. As we all know now these are the type of men who led us down this destructive path, that allowed power to all the people who should never of had any.
I never really actualized my weakness until my early to mid 20's, ever since then I've fought so hard to better myself and become a man. I've done very well in years since then; I'm in amazing shape, very confident, and mental and physically I've never felt better. Yet at the same time, I still live with some bitterness, because if I was never weak in the first place, I'd like to think I'd be incredibly strong now, far more so than I am. At the end of the day though, all that is important is that you're trying and fighting to be more of a man. It's all that you can do.
Wtf i don't remember making this post
