I'm not in college but I suspect it's probably still much the same, if you take a political science class at a major state university there's always the one right-wing guy in the class who is kind of nerdy and weird and nobody likes him. He looks like the president of Serbia or le /pol/face. You know the type.

On the video game thing, Jack Thompson sort of fell off after he got disbarred and he was leading the charge on trying to get games banned for violence. Stuff like “Tropes vs Women” came a little while after and let liberals and feminists take the heat. That they were arguably more successful in propelling change in the video game industry than Thompson by working inside it only made them seem “more sinister”.

But moving away from that, well shit, ever hear a bunch of dudes talk among themselves? They’ll casually drop slurs, they’ll call each other gay, they’ll watch shit like Dirty Harry and think “that’s badass” and not “Umm this is very upsetting and fascist propaganda.”

Seriously you’ve got the trope of guys watching Fight Club or Starship Troopers and not “getting it” and thinking it’s badass and, well, it is badass. The space dudes fighting bugs is fucking cool. Tyler Durden is badass. We aren’t hemming and hawing and thinking “oh that’s awful”, we think it’s cool.

There was a video I saw ages ago, I think it was titled “The Eminem sized hole in White America” or something like that. Lots of comments about how so many white dudes that commenters knew growing up, that’d get called fags and threatened by some hicks, well they’d later go on to embrace that MAGA shit and a lot of them were like “how did this happen?” Well, I mean, look at Eminem today. He sort of “cancelled” himself with the “Death of Slim Shady” album I believe. He recanted how he acted and some of the stuff he used to say. But the thing is these guys who went Right Wing later on didn’t move on from that stuff. They saw annoying liberals hemming and hawing about “you can’t say this, you can’t say that” and the Republicans progressively gave less of a fuck about long hair and slurs. So these dudebros basically went “I want to listen to morally outrageous music, watch shit that everyone tells me is awful, and say slurs. Fuck the libs telling me I can’t.”

They were basically cast out and the right scooped them up.

If you're talking about the president of Serbia he's actually quite tall. So at least you wouldn't be a manlet.

I was more referring to myself as the guy in the political science class who is kind of nerdy and weird and nobody likes him.

Hey anon, embrace the nerdiness rather than run from it. It'll do you good.

>>2555956
I guess I can try.

Funny in another way it was the opposite. The jocks were considered problematic dudebros who slept around and got naive girls drunk, nerds were considered thoughtful, open minded, more feminist, but then at some point it flipped and jocks are chill with women and nerds are redpilled incels until proven otherwise.

They're sexist and homophobic therefore they're rightoids.

And said who?

>The problem with the man is, they don't understand a fucken thing about shit and stuff
Is an attitude in every decade and it's not based on anything other than just, the government is responsible for shit and shits all fucked up, so whatever their policies may be, they're wrong and because few are actually political the presented solution inevitably ends up just being whatever the polar opposite is.

I don't think stereotypes for jocks and nerds ever changed, I think what changed was the perspective on marriage. Jocks have always been considered chill with women, they were jerks because they'd not necessarily marry a girl they're "chilling out" with and that was considered disrespectful, dishonourable, unintelligent, etc. Meanwhile nerds were "sensitive" meaning more of a handful emotionally but will put a ring on it. Marriage isn't considered important anymore, arguably it's detrimental for women especially the way nerds/incels present it, thus there's really no reason to consider jocks to be jerks anymore.

Patriarchy probably benefits the nerd\incel type more than the jock type. Patriarchy can probably distribute women more evenly among men. I remember an anon wrote a thread a bit ago about masculinity and patriarchy and how they don't actually fit with in each other. Masculinity was more about impregnating as much women as possible which meant a lot of guys having to be more active in finding women while patriarchy sort of just guaranteed women for men and sort of killed masculinity because it made men less active in pursuing women or something along those lines.

I suspect the erosion of marriage's perceived importance and benefit has less to do with patriarchy being eroded (as it doesn't really seem to be in any real sense), but just women's labour is genuinely depended on after years of it being a kind of
>oh be nice, let them have a go at working at male jobs as well
thing because shocker, they're good at those jobs, so them getting married and having kids is considered now detrimental as they'll no doubt put raising their family ahead of their job even if they stay employed.

That being said, women led by liberals have discovered that being "liberated" into just more types of work and shared financial responsibility during an age where salaries are down and rents are up fucking blows, thus they might have been open to marriage, but alas incels shoot themselves in the foot because they've not got a personality outside of thinking going to school and liking it ought to entitle them to whatever they desire, virginities mostly.
