      More privilege and more aggressive/violent. Sure one could write a whole essay analyzing this but it should come down to mainly those two reasons

        yeah, but that one makes sense to me. Racewar is the preferred struggle of The West, including Israel. White supremacy and Jewish supremacy are clear allies. maybe it just speaks to my lack of feminist education, but what is particularly masculine about bombing babies? And I realize gender is riven with these sorts of contradictions, but is there not also a masculinity in the palestinian struggle for dignity and freedom from the yoke of imperial domination? Why is that so much less appealing to the USian male?

          Men are generally socialized to be more okay with violence and use of force. Some dudes also think it’s unmasculine to call for peace over war. A kind of “fellas, is it gay not to bomb hospitals?”

          White supremacy and Jewish supremacy are clear allies.

          This is true and it’s so absurd to think about. Imagine telling Hitler that in 80 years the White race will die on the hill of defending Jewish settlers.

          Patriarchy is male supremacy. Which is why the Andrew Tate crowd, red pill crowd, and so on are all natural allies of the other supremacy groups. All supremacists are advocates of extreme hierarchical domination, and in that they are all allies.

          I think a lot of men are very self centered. All their thoughts follow directly from their perspective with little interest elsewhere. To them this is a hypothetical that they are trying to fit themselves into. And a lot of them fantasize about commiting violence in response to percieved disrespect.

          “Yeah dude if I get hit I’ll hit back harder. I dont even know what I’d do if a terrorist attack happened here. But it wouldnt be super fucking nice for them. Yeah, no, I dont care about your BS. Make excuses about what led to it if you want. Shit happened and now shit has to happen. Fuck off pussy. Im not soft for anyone, anytime.”
