The same people comparing their cars, bank accounts, houses, even their dogs and schools their children go to. to decide who is ""alpha"" and who is poor. Capitalist religion-induced issues.

Since when did masculinity become toxic lol

As usual i read too much into stupid shit. Yes, this is toxic masculinity just as much as punching someone in the face. But, like everything, context matters and I believe directing harm towards “bad” people is “good” (aka punching a nazi is good, even preferable). My granpa (a declared fash) would shield behind the “no violence” stand to support the most heinous shit and my point always has been that somebody need to shoot a nazi eventually. That guy would be “bad” for killing a person but we need those guys. At some point kindness doesn’t cut it anymore.

The worst part is genuinely can't tell if this is serious or not.

I don't understand this comic. White nationalism and penis size are unrelated, as far as I'm aware.

Sure, I would agree with that, but just because it's root cause is the patriarchy does not mean that something that hurts men is actually misogyny.

It's called a joke

Google is a thing, and the average penis size is a fairly well documented static. .

Liberals must have huge elephant penises that nobody wants to fuck with.

Centrism is where it's at.

Thanks for clarifying that

A more serious interpretation is that men might try to compensate for their insecurity by being angry and hateful in an act of over-performative masculinity.

Also, it’s just belittling white nationalists because they’re obviously losers and it’s fun to do so.

ugh

"Masculinity" isn't toxic on its own, "Toxic Masculinity" is a specific thing on its own.

It's using the measuring stick of being "masculine enough" or "enough of a man" to harm someone else.

Ngl, I frankly kinda doubt that who owns the means of production has any bearing on an individual's self-consciousness regarding their penis size

Do you think the same about makeup? It is so easy to play with men's insecurities too...

I would volunteer to look at a bunch of penises...for science of course.

We had comparative wealth inequality for thousands to tens of thousands of years before capitalism.

Yes, but you didnt have status anxiety (i.e. if you can become anything you want if you work hard enough, why aren't you ""alpha"" yet?) and the prosperity gospel: "you deserve to be poor because you don't hustle enough at the altar of crapitalism".

We had makeup thousands of years before capitalism.

Im not sure Cyanide and Happiness' creators are leftists
