Yup. The end product of toxic masculinity is never a happy man, it's an overgrown boy who constantly feels inadequate, is afraid of the whole world, can't express themselves, can't manage their emotions, and takes it out on everyone around them.
fwiw, nobody fits the archetype of traditional masculinity, which is kind of the point of patriarchy; no one measures up, therefore everyone is in a constant frenzy to prove themselves through escalating cruelty and violence. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/there-isnt...

Clarence Thomas’s Clerks: An ‘Extended Family’ With Reach and Power
The Supreme Court justice has built a network of former clerks who share messages, meals and a common vision — wielding influence at universities, law firms and the highest rungs of government.

Abortion ban "exceptions" don't exist. They never existed. Not for rape. Not for incest. Not for the life of the mother. The only people they're designed to protect is the politicians who tout them as a fraudulent defense of an inhumane policy. Exceptions are a talking point and nothing else.
NEW: The Texas Supreme Court VACATES the temporary restraining order that would have allowed Kate Cox to get an abortion in Texas, stating that her situation, as articulated, falls outside the medical-necessity exception www.txcourts.gov/media/145764...

one thing to remember is that conservatives have been trying to dismantle higher ed once anyone not a white man could enroll.
once women and POC were accepted and hired, they've been framing universities as left wing institutions when the truth is the complete opposite
