The Fracturing of Democracy - A Chronicle of Continuing Trauma. -- Why Young Men Don’t Like The Democrats
What they were talking about really was a sense of authenticity. There's a high degree of respect among men, I think, especially for young men, for men who say what they think and stand by it.

Broliver Stagnasty's Hat Stand

The conversation in this short video is about why young men are disillusioned with politics and, more specifically, the Democratic Party. 

Give it a watch and tell me what you think about the video.

One of the pillars of integrity is doing what you say you are going to do. 

I find it extremely ironic that a man who basically tells you he is going to wreck the economy and the governmental institutions, is somehow seen as being a better person because he keeps his word.

I watched nearly half of it. I commend these young men on their way of getting their point across. They're not being nasty or obnoxious. Many things they say I agree with. I grew up with my dad working outside the home and mom staying at home and taking care of that stuff. But this was the 70's. She really didn;t need to work outside the home. Nowadays it's impossible

It's not rocket science.  You can only tell them they're the problem for so long before they leave. 

Even CNN is starting to get it. 

CNN anchor   Jake Tapper   recently pointed to a joke made by a left-leaning podcast host about his teenage son wanting to become a police officer—not as a laugh line, but as a telling sign of why   Democrats   are losing voters.

Speaking on The Prof G Pod with NYU professor Scott Galloway, Tapper recounted the incident—without naming the podcast—and argued that the dismissive reaction to his son's interest in law enforcement highlights a broader disconnect between the   Democratic Party   and young male voters.

"Their joke was about my 15-year-old son, 'Oh, how does he feel about minorities?' Like the idea that he wants to be a policeman, therefore he's, he's racist, my son. And like, you know, that was the big laugh. And then I got dragged in the comments and all that stuff and, and I thought to myself, 'This is why you fuckers are losing elections,'" Tapper said.

Tapper, who is currently on a media tour promoting his book   Original Sin , emphasized the broader implications of the joke. He argued that it reflected a pervasive attitude among some progressives that alienates young men from the Democratic Party.

"He's 15. He thinks about World War II and gaming and playing linebacker, that's his world," Tapper said, referring to his son. "You're deciding he's a racist because he wants to be a cop. And why does he want to be a cop? He wants to help people."

"One hundred percent," Galloway agreed.

Tapper's comments also highlight ongoing tensions within the Democratic Party regarding its messaging to male voters, particularly young men. He criticized the party's inability to communicate effectively with demographics like his son's, noting the party's use of terms like "toxic masculinity" as further alienating.
