Need a plate of generic, insipid platitudes with a giant helping of bad science and misogyny?

I see a lot of people here talking about how unpersuasive his arguments are. So I think this misses the real issue at hand. Countless young men do find him persuasive. They feel abandoned by everyone else and there is this man who comes along and convinces them he knows "the way". Talking about how "unconvincing" his arguments are won't stop this from happening. If anything it will impower in-group type thinking. It's much more important that we tackle these problems at their source: combat the emotional abandonment of young men
