I think there will always be a certain type of male that really believe that humans need a pecking order, and they’ll live vicariously through the broligarchs, even if they have no power whatsoever. Social media platforms make that easier than ever to find and worship such awful people. This is why I give side-eye when people tell me that Gen Z is somehow inherently more just and so on than any other prior generation.

By what possible mechanism would that even be? It certainly is not from teaching media literacy or critical thinking at mass scale.
