@RishiSunak “No social media. No cigarettes. At 18 you will be conscripted to sponge bathe old people. You will never own a home, and even renting will be next to impossible. On Saturdays you will do free gardening work for an Eritrean family that can’t speak English.”
10 years tops, done.
It's weird that society treats old people better than children, considering everyone knows what it's like to be a child, but only the old know what it's like to be old.
Until a significant portion of your society stops treating males - especially young males - as nothing more than broken / defective / misbehaving females, y'all are going to have a lot of pointless difficulties.
The image of a fat negress standing triumphant in front of a shitty, overgrown parking lot, saying "I did this. This bullshit vacant lot could have been something useful. I made sure that will never happen." Might as well make this the new American flag.
Female hero protagonists in books feels fake because real life doesn’t have female protagonists. Women aren’t Napoleon or Caesar, they don’t walk on the moon or make world changing discoveries, or create secret societies, or lead revolutions.
What passes for a philosophy of manliness often turns out to be nothing more than an admiration of those habits most suitable to a particularly industrious slave.
