Would anyone be interested in being a mod for this community?
I noticed several things in other MGTOW communities that were alarming, The pattern seems to be that Women point to the poorly formed men and use them as an excuse to act even worse. Men, seeing bad women, then in turn use them as an excuse to be even worse than they are. It is a downward spiral.
At some point the cycle has to be broken, someone has to strive to be better even if it for the sake of their own souls.
To me, MGTOW was always about self-improvement, rising above our carnal desires and nurturing the best parts of us.
Men are the driving force of civilization, without good men, we do not have a good society.
I took a break for Lent from social media. I only peeked in to keep informed but I focused instead on trying to learn something useful. After the past 2 years at Wolfballs and Exploding Heads, I had really faint hopes that this community would grow into something stable and healthy. I no longer have those hopes as faint as they were.
So, be excellent to each other, nurture the best parts of your souls and turn your back on degeneracy. I'll check in occasionally to see who wants this community or perhaps Splinter will just hand it over to someone.
also just check the scored community if you want to have more active discussions I think you know where it's at, there are periodic posts about improvement
problem is that the incentives are in place to keep the spiral going, improvement takes a lot of effort... like above average effort compared to the past is needed just to be "normal", but even more effort to be better than average... it's a lot of effort to ask. not even a guarantee of success of living a normal life but only a shot at it... can be a big ask for a lot of people. But I think the key is probably just to try the best for yourself and find people who are giving things a shot at the level you're willing to try at, and be a good example to encourage others to try.
I empathize with you feeling discouraged, I felt this way with my men's rights community.
There is a dominance of far-left opinions online bc anonymity fosters their passive-aggressiveness.
They don't or idk reject, the importance of critical thinking and openness to different perspectives, and instead lash out in rage.
It's good to take breaks from the negativity.
Never be afraid to speak up, (not saying you are) despite feeling outnumbered online.
The difference between online behavior and real-life interactions, is standing up for oneself is more prevalent. (Meaning, calling their bitch assess out to they face lol)
Where as online, it's been made to tie our hands behind our backs. I hate that you feel this way. I hope something inspires you and energizes you soon
