"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

i see the "male loneliness epidemic" as an effect of liberal ideas caused by the contradiction of defending capitalism and trying to give "liberal freedom" to people:

-feminism was needed to extend the workforce for capitalism and evolving from feudal patriarchy, but with the hyperindividualistic focus of capitalism and the feudal thinking of religious ideals of nuclear family not fully erradicated, the far-right concluded that the issue was the existence of women's rights and suffrage

-religious culture taught people that working hard and "doing your part as a man" granted you a ticket for a free breeding machine (a.k.a tradwife), but capitalism made the women also competitive and putting their own future and profit (for the individualistic perspective) ahead of reactionary gender roles, making some men frustrated of not being able to redeem their "wife ticket"

this is what i think
