I wish so much that I was wrong, but I am not.
My fellow American men are unfeeling morons. They revile science, art, philosophy, nature, meaning — literally anything and everything that matters. Their lives are nothing but self-fellating gratifications and consumerism: sports, trucks, video games. For every intelligent American man there are 5 barely sentient unempathetic subhumans whose lives are as shallow as they are meaningless.
That is what I have learned in my 30 years on this planet. The number of good men I’ve met — just met — I can count on the fingers of one hand.
As the father of a Gen Z Son whose almost done with a degree in Chemical Engineering I can confidently say that you are wrong. There's large numbers of intelligent, educated, and caring young men out there and it's been my privilege to watch quite a few of them grow up.
As a man over 50 I'm going to point out that if everywhere you go smells like shit then you need to check your shoes.
