In the hours following former President Donald Trump’s election victory, Google searches related to 4B — a fringe South Korean feminist movement that made a name for itself in the mid to late 2010s — surged in the United States.

    It’s my understanding that a lot of Gen-Z men backed Trump as well. Can’t say I understand the appeal he has to the younger crowd.

        This is of the people who voted. I wouldn’t be surprised if the non voting population was a significant number.

          That’s a fair point. 18-24 year olds only accounted for 17% of the vote. Many of them sat out.

      Perhaps some introspection is in order. If feminists can’t figure out how to coexist with others, without turning everything into a battle, then they’re ultimately going to prove to the world that they have no business at all being anywhere near power. Frankly, women have been given a great deal of autonomy in western civilization recently, and have set themselves to the task of burning everything down. It’s not at all a good look, and how the younger generation sees you should be a wake up call.

        Feminists are not the one aggressively turning men into this. It’s toxic masculinity types like Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, and Joe Rogan.

          Keep doubling down. I’m sure you’ve almost got the formula right.

            The scary feminists are turning men into douchebags not the notable douchebags with a platform spewing hate, sure buddy.

            Look inward my dude. You have some really fucked up ideas about women. Women are just people like you or me and deserve full rights including to their body. If you can’t accept that you don’t see women as fully human and you are, to be technical, an asshole.

        If thats your logic, when are men going to apologize for WWI and WWII? How about an apology for the Holomodor? Are these the evidence you’re using to show that men deserve to be in power?

        Frankly, women have been given a great deal of autonomy in western civilization recently, and have set themselves to the task of burning everything down.

        Oh? Which part of men’s bodies are women given legal power to control?

        BTW, I’m a dude, I’m just not deluded enough to think that my genitals make me smarter that people with other genitals.

          Am cis-male. And I guarantee you my genitals absolutely make me way dumber than other genital types. 😆 I could fill a novel with data points of my genitally-enabled stupidity.

        Lol I tagged you “mad about WoKe games” so it’s not surprising that here you are going off about feminists. Practically no feminist has issues with respectful male individuals. So we can speculate where you got the idea that they’re looking for trouble… Gee I wonder

        Autonomy is not “given.”

          It is when you’re still so deep inside the system mentally that you require products to facilitate your lifestyle. If you want to know how to be free without relying upon society to grant you that privilege, you should look into this cool guy from Roman times named Jesus.

            Look I never do this, but… 🤮

            And seriously… if you’re trying to be a “good Christian witness”… this is not the way.

              Not even really Christian, but he still provides a great example of what it actually means to live in this world. Too many people want freedom, but don’t want to give up the luxuries that others provide for them. Frankly a lot of Christians don’t get that part of the message either.
