    Men shouldn’t be allowed to work outside the home. They are aggressive, territorial, and utterly unsuited for any job that requires interacting with other human beings. They should be kept at home taking care of children. At least when raising their own offspring, their chimp brains produce some incentive to take care of their own progeny. But interacting with random people? Men are just far too emotional and irrational to be placed in any position of trust and confidence. And don’t even get me started on the foolish individualism. Work is about working together as a team, but men only care about personal fame and glory. For them it’s all about beating their chests and dicks. When I need to hire someone to get work done, I want someone that will be a productive member of the team, not someone that is more concerned about swinging his dick around and peacocking about what a stud he is.

    Men simply have no role in any workplace. They’re the illogical sex and best kept at home. What few men who are employed outside the home should be kept in roles where they are outnumbered by women at least ten to one. If too many men gather in one space, their aggressive instincts take over and they start randomly fist fighting and throwing their own feces at one another.

    We need to purge workplaces of the masculine vices that have infected them. Work isn’t about personal vainglorious pride. It’s about actually getting shit done. And men just aren’t up for this. Men should largely work from home, kept locked away from large groups of others so they don’t get in random fights. They’re just to aggressive to be let out in public alone.

    And the idea of a male leader? Utterly laughable. You want a man to be president? You want a man to hold the nuclear button? Elect a man to office and he’ll launch a nuke towards Moscow just to try and show he has a bigger dick than Putin.

      If only! In my experience they start getting cocky and throwing it at everyone outside their particular clique.

        This is an op-ed piece, and NYT op-eds have always been godawful. I don’t know why we care about it now, or why we’re only just now using it to criticize the NYTs journalism (which has more than enough to criticize all on it’s own) but that’s where this has come from.

        Edit: Not entirely relevant to the first point, but I just went and gave it a listen and… The above piece is fucking embarassing. Really. That they’ve had to change the title three times would seem to indicate they agree. It’s the moderator (an absolute dickhead) and some conservative weirdo refusing to answer a very reasonable and simple question with just utter nonsense. Hopefully the justified backlash to this continues, and they eventually clue in and just take it down. Fucking joke.

            Their journalistic reputation is quite deserved - despite many valid criticisms, they do still do incredibly good and important journalism. Their opinion pieces ride the coattails of that work to make them seem like they have any value. I honestly do not think I have ever seen a NYT opinion piece that’s not just absolute garbage.

            The idea was to provide a counterpoint to the liberal ‘bias’ inherent to reporting all news - but that idea has long since stopped being reasonable, and it really needs to be just given up on.

        They’re centrist to a fault and have a tendency to agree with the “official narrative” until it becomes unpopular. They’re so afraid of being seen as partisan any side can sway them by accusing them of being on the other side enough

        imo a lot of their reporting is the best of the mainstream. lemmy users absolutely shit on the paper and they generally make valid points, but there’s a fair bit of “burn them at the stake” carry on. their op-eds tend to be “diverse”, meaning they have total pieces of shit spouting nonsense week by week.

        British? Interesting…

        Ngl in my (previous, now) headcannon, you’re like a cyberhippie lady that lives on a farm with a bunch of butterfly lawn ornaments, host your own email server, and carry a shotgun with a big sun hat and a smile. Don’t ask me how my brain got there, I couldn’t tell you even if I tried.

        Change your thinking immediately. Every single major news outlet in the US is pushing a corporation’s agenda. I promise. Theyre all owned by billionaires.

        Even publicly funded news in the US helped usher in our current state of fascism by softballing it constantly to Americas lowest common denominator.

            However segments and whole shows on those channels are also often influenced heavily from outside donors. Unfortunately they still take corporate sponsorship. Listening to the shit NPR will spout about the current Palestinian genocide makes me fucking livid. And I used to be a sponsor.

            Which one of them opposed a single military action by the US as it was occurring?

            You don’t get a platform if you’re not the type to hear “America just invaded/bombed <country>” and the first thing to come to mind is “Were any American soldiers hurt”.

        When they were founded because the other big NY paper’s European correspondent¹ was not fascist enough.

        They have been on the wrong side of history, like, every fucking time.

    So I’m the morbidly curious type and started to read this trash…

    Let’s pick one flavor of wokeness, and that is the #MeToo movement.

    You hear that language of personal choice, not only on the left with regard to abortion, but for conservatives in opposition to things like SNAP benefits for unmarried women: Well, you chose to have this baby while you were poor

    Gross, cruel, regressive.

    This guy is clearly an asshole. I work with great women and fucking shitty women. They’re individuals. Never have I looked at the DNB pulling six figures and producing literally nothing while delegating 95% of their shit and thought “all women” nor have I looked at the superstar who always delivers and thought “all women”.

    People are an intersection of multiple spectra, and not a single person could ever define one of their subcategories.

    That’s why I hate political correctness. Letting people express their nonsensical shitty opinions openly tells you a lot about them.

    The New York Times is a right wing tabloid rag unfit for wiping your ass. Excise it from your lives. You will be better off.

      Well this one is an interview hosted by Ross Douthat, one of the nyt opinion writers. I haven’t listened but I’m gonna guess the two people he’s interviewing are more to the right of him, based on the title. He’s quite annoying himself, though

        he recently made a podcast whining about how how inappropriate it was for taylor swift to use curse words and make a song about a penis (because won’t someone think of his poor conservative children!) then claimed she was secretly antiwoke and tradwife material owning the libs 🙄 i don’t know why i listen to his drivel
