Justice for Men & Boys 
How much worse can it get? It’s easily seen that women have made inroads into politics when a fictional TV programme is being discussed in the House of Commons as a guide to Government policy. And used to justify ‘crackdowns’ against ‘incel culture’. Just as one of the co-writers apparently intended. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0egyyq1z47o
There are all sorts of mixed messages at the moment. In the BBC article, the co-writer calls for “radical action, not role models.” Meanwhile, Sir Gareth Southgate calls for more male role models. These would indeed seem to be becoming thin on the ground, with around 90% of primary teachers and 70% of secondary teachers being female. Most boys then go home to a household lacking a father figure, particularly a biological father.
Hint to Sir Gareth…any inspiring male role model would automatically exclude you, someone all to ready to ‘take the knee’ to organisations which you clearly do not understand. Feminism is only one of them.

Interesting that Andrew Tate follows on from James Bond and Jordan Peterson as the evil role model corrupting boys. https://www.spiked-online.com/2025/03/20/andrew-tate-is-the-least-of-teenage-boys-problems/
The contrast between the various “bad influences” suggests either clutching at straws or deliberate distraction. From the obvious effect of declaring males “toxic”, directly discriminating against them even in schooling, creating “man deserts” and fatherlessness and generally ignoring them. It is no accident that the supposed “epidemic” of knife crime is connected with the afro-Caribbean community for it is that community that has pioneered the fatherless man deserts that are creeping from inner city estates in the capital and big cities to the whole nation, “white working class boys” the next crisis are simply following as they grow up in chaotic families created by the welfare society and its control by a feminist clerisy.

This analysis of ‘Adolescence’, and the motivations of its writers is thoughtful and measured, coming to the conclusion that Tate is no more than a response to the excesses of feminism. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2tU7tyceAM

I’ve previously watched andrew lawrences video on this.
yes this issue is very politically charged and bigoted
I’m of the suspicion that this was not based on an incident in london as the writer had claimed, but rather that the writer( like many I’m sure) wanted to cash in on the murders last year( that created a back lash, a demonstration of gender and race bigotry) that proved the levels of discrimination that the labour govt will sink to.
Obviously the writer couldn’t( or wouldn’t dare) reflect race or any of the political issues in the background, but took the easy way out and used everyones favourite villian.
Those “thirty pieces of silver” were too cheap for the price of the writers integrity( never mind the MPs who went along with it)

My wife is a Netflix subscriber. I started to watch Queen’s Gambit with her believing that it was about Chess. I soon realised that No it was not about Chess but was just more of the kickass female BS we are accustomed to.
Netflix, The Times, BBC etc. etc. are full of this. One has to remember that the main subscribers to Netflix etc are female and are getting what they want.
In the long term young men will survive this. They will figure out the BS. Young women on the other hand will continue to disappear down the rabbit hole of fear and mental ill-health.

Thanks Seamus, good points. Women have an insatiable appetite for BS so long as it flatters them. BBC, Channel 4, Times, Telegraph and Spectator are all reliably female-friendly and feminist-compliant, and it’s not getting any better.
