/pol/ and millenials are gonna come here and say the problem is their bogeyman, "the left", "the progressives", "the feminists", or whatever.
The truth is, this has been happening for a long time. Way before all of those things became big deals.
Fight Club hits the nail in the head. The main reason this has been happening are the corporations and the consumerism. Capitalism basically turned men into weaklings for bigger profits.

Are you really using Russia's communism as an explanation for the issue?
You mean the communism that barely has any influence in today's world in pretty much 99% of the first world's countries? The communism that failed hard and its own mother turned capitalist?
Or are you speculating that the issue would still be here if Russia had succeeded?
In any case, that's dumb.
Don't get me wrong though, I'm not a fan of Russia's political system or Marxism either.
>>35326727
>>35326686
Both of you are half right. It's an assault on all sides.
Women/progressives/sjw want you to be a weak pussywipped male that worships the holy vagina.
Corporations/media want you to be a permanent manchild, buying whatever gay products they bring out and say is cool.
Government wants you to be weak and stupid so they can control you and turn you into a wageslave that doesn't speak up.
>>35326727
What you're saying about today's capitalism is true but it's also true of socialism. Both corporations and socialists want to break down individuals and rebuild them in a more useful manner for their own interests.
Some of the biggest capitalists in the world are also the biggest socialists, it's no coincidence. The interests of them both converge around pliable, unresisting masses. Self-sufficiency does not serve those who want your dependency.

My opinion is that there aren't enough men helping other men get off the ground. When I first started lifting I was glad when a person who obviously lifted for longer than me helped me work out some form on my deadlifts and I've begun to make a point by saying hello and being friendly to other people who seem to just start out.
However in other areas of life men will tear down other men in competitions for money, women and power. How many of you are in your late 20's and find yourself with only a handful of friends or none at all? Too many dudes have have their wives of women as their "best friend" and many more are perpetually under the heel of their management or government in a time where job security and pension plans are a rarity

Men need other men, brotherhoods. Women can't provide the same companionship as other men. That's not to say you can't have a great relationship with your wife, you'll just be somewhat incomplete without the social structure you'd find in a brotherhood of men you can trust and rely on.
I love my wife and we're great friends, but it's not the same as my friendship with my best friend or my father.

This. Somehow along the way, what used to be friendship and companionship went away and anyone who has a good friend gets accused of bromance and gets made fun of and larger groups of men are always immature frat boys.

>man in a fedora is now seen as a trendsetter. Fedoras are soft, usually made of felt, creased lengthwise down the crown, and pinched on both sides. Obviously you cannot pair a fedora with jeans and a polo. They are only an appropriate accent for dressier outfits. But the payoff — loads of style, class, and confidence — make dressing up worth it. Fedoras will make you look manly and a bit mysterious. Worn by Prohibition-era gangsters, almost all of the movie stars of the 1940s, and Old Blue Eyes himself, donning a fedora puts you in touch with a truly luminous and manly heritage.

In the early 90s there was a huge Political Correctness movement happening among students, not unlike the whole SJW spectacle we have today
It nearly killed any form of public debate

Your pic is all leaders of socialist states. Communism is a society without a state, so obviously those are not communist leaders.
I work with a guy who obsesses over working out and nobody wants to hear about working out 24/7 besides him. Strength training is a fairly obsessive thing whereas other sports complement other aspects of life. A soccer player probably goes snowboarding and other fun things, but a weight lifter probably just lifts weights and thinks about gains. You can see how thats not stimulating to be around. If thats all you care about, do it. If you are itching for social interaction, you have to diversify. Its not a damnation of masculinity, its just forcing you to take interest in other things.

>>35326856
Are you completely unaware of what socialism is?
Are you American? No offense, but study more. American "socialism" != socialism.
Socialism needs strong collectivised workers that think individually and collectively to empower the working class and get ready to seize the means of production.
It is the direct opposite of the worker under a capitalistic economy, a worker that is interchangeable and generic.
Marxism and Capitalism are outdated shit that has been proven not to work.

I've never talked about the merit of communism, but pretending that it has ever been implementet in a large society is wrong.
Now wether or not it would work, i think it would fail. I think that within the stateless society groups would start appearing and return make a return to a state society.

Why can't you faggots consider that it might be more than a single cause?

Meanwhile progressives and feminists are working for their own interests.
The end result is always the same: Men that act like women. In society and in commerce.

The reason fedoras, or Trilbys as most of them actually are, look so fucking retarded is that it's prissy. It's a large, obnoxious accessory being worn for the look. It's like a necklace, or armbands, but bigger and less practical. And with casual clothes it's even worse. somebody who dresses up is thought badly of, as if they can't stand on their own merits, as if they are trying to be cool and attention grabbing as opposed to simply being cool and being noticed for something that matters.
Basically, Fedoras make you look like a prissy little effeminate cunt, and they are so ingrained in a terrible subculture that they are not ever going to be respectable again.

Okay /fit/ here's what masculinity is:
1. benefiting yourself and your 'tribe', or your loved ones.
2. only considering the opinion of yourself and your tribe
3. having the capability to guide your tribe towards victory
That's it. Really, this is what has been ingrained in us for tens of thousands of years is the tribe mentality. Now, being the leader of your own tribe makes you more of a man. But this is what it is about.
It's not about wearing fedoras or growing facial hair. It's not about pushing a political agenda, left or right. It's not about caring what other people think or do behind closed doors that has no affect on you.
It's about being strong and smart because you need to be to do those three things. Granted, while in today's society strength is increasingly less needed to do those things, its value has been ingrained in our identity as a species. And there are some things that are part of the "art of manliness" stereotype, but unlike wearing fedoras or growing a mustache, they have value towards those three things. Eating a lot and exercising a lot will make you stronger. Dressing well will make you more socially valuable. Knowing how to do things will be generally beneficial for both you and your tribe, as rather than pay for a service you can do it yourself. Reading, indulging in the arts will stimulate your mind.
I'd like to point out that the reason beards are hailed by some people as the pinnacle of masculinity is because it hearkens back to a different time. In this time masculinity reigned supreme - and most of these men had beards because, frankly, they had more to worry about than what was on their face.
It's true that today's society is devaluing strength as a quality of a leader. But it will always be there in some degree. And to be quite honest, it's not necessary. You don't necessarily need to be strong to run a nation. Wars are barely fought with people anymore, let alone leaders.

The thing is you are right, we don't need to train strength anymore because our society changed immensely in the last hundred of years. But 100 years is nothing for evolution. Our psychology is still based on strength. A stronger person is healthier both physically and mentally. Nothing will change this in the next hundreds years also. This is fact.

How come this thread has 146 replies but not a single person has mentioned christianity as an influence on why weakness is loved and strength is abhorred in Western society?
It was Nietzsche who wrote:
>"Our weak, unmanly social concepts of good and evil... have finally weakened all bodies and souls and snapped the self-reliant, independent, unprejudiced men, the pillars of a strong civilization"
In the end, it has been Christianity that has demonized strength.

>>35326168
You have a causality issue here. It's not that simple. I's easier to just say "muh progressives", but it doesn't change reality. A lot of our desire to tear down the strong comes from the zero sum-like competitive nature of our culture. Everyone is raised to believe that they should be the winner and when it turns out to be the inevitable 10 to 1 ratio of losers to winners, this breeds resentment. It also stems from the insertion of Puritan and Christian morality wherein the "flock" is of utmost importance. Those that fall outside of the flock or want more for themselves usually end up being ostracized.
So, yeah. It's a cultural inevitability over a hundred years in the making. It's not as simple as "this group I don't like thinks differently, therefore they did it".

The American God (the one we trust in) is a diest one. He created humanity (or maybe just the world) and that's it. Everyone is equal in purposelessness, and rights are intrinsic truths which we are guaranteed. We are able to speak, therefore we must speak the truth. We are able to kill, therefore we must protect ourselves. And so on. You can't really justify America morally using other belief systems.

What drives a fullgrown man into becoming a leftist? Genuinely asking, I'm interested in the psychology behind it.
>>35326727
This.
A human who can run or is physically strong gets a good dose of self esteem. He sees that he can move heavy things or traverse long distances without anything but his own body. That makes the human confident in his physical abilities.
It's something that has nothing to do with society, and it doesn't feed the economic machine. What it does do is strengthening the mind and trains the neurosystem to operate under stress.
That, my friends, is dangerous. Because as soon as humans realise that we basically don't need shit to be happy, and it's all in the mind and body, consumerism will fall.

It's a result of a dysfunctional mother. grown leftyboys love the fact that their bullies are really victims of an older version of themselves.
that is why leftist "men" will side with all sorts of shit, to confirm to themselves that their bullies didn't bully them cause they themselves were weak but because the attackers were weak
they are wrong, but to admit that they would have to admit to being weak and do something about it. instead they hate the people they could themselves be, with some effort and that is real white males.
they will claim otherwise but this is basically the core of the problem, also some are just mentally ill

The USSR continuing to exist was based around the idea you didn't need global communism/socialism for the politico economic mode to perpetuate. So it's arguable. See socialism in one country.
A lot of communist type thinking in that period focuses on the lack of a perpetuating global revolution so I would say we've moved on from there.

>>35330915
That's socialism. Communism is purely an end to the Marxist historical paradigm, that is you can no longer view the changes of humanity through the lens of material exchange. A few centuries ago capitalism was a pipe dream that would have been p much unthinkable but over time we've developed new tools like stocks and bonds and lending and so on, and humanity itself has changed.

Feminism is about the equality of women. If men and women are equal, then "protecting women" is sexist. It's the typical patriarchal urge that feminists are doing their best to combat.

Yes! I guess, as the article states, I am a trendsetter and have been wearing a fedora for years. It has become my trademark! (Being in the entertainment industry, I need one.) I actually have a fedora that I can wear with more casual attire (even a t-shirt and jeans), but when I appear in public in my suit and nicer fedora, I tend to turn heads. Here's a recent publicity shot to prove it:

P.S. I also try to follow a lot of the "manners" associated, but I don't remove my fedora simply because I have entered a room. As I mentioned, people know me because of my fedora. I do take it off if I'm in someone's home for a while or during a meal. I may be a bit sloppy in regards to these guidelines, but hey -- I'm an artist!
I don't wanna watch the video, I've heard the art of manliness is the cringiest shit

Yes, he's absolutely right.
In today's advertising media, "dumb helpless man needs to be corrected by the smart wife" is literally the only joke you can make. You CANNOT do it the other way around or you will get sued.
Now, I understand that it wasn't always that way. You go back to the 50's, e.g. the sitcom I Love Lucy, that was the whole premise of the show - dumb woman needs to be rescued by smart man. But that show could never be made in today's society. The producers would get their pants sued off.
