There are almost no good role models in modern media for men or boys. When a character gets close the show does very well. People are hungry for it. ( I hope people don't misinterpret this and follow a conqueror instead taking responsibility for themselves )

Some might argue this is the natural cycle, one state aggressively expands far beyond its own capacity to govern, then the whole thing collapses. Almost a clean slate, a reset.

Would much rather see a rise in strong independent males capable of critical thought this is a bigger threat to the fiat state then sound money. At least in the short term.

The media image of men is strikingly bad, for sure. I think strong fathers actually create independence. The modern state is a smothering nanny. A normal and natural father is always trying to stand everybody up on their feet and give them as much independence as they can handle.

That's why breaking down the father was the critical step. By demonizing fatherhood and calling it tyranny, they broke down his natural, healthy authority to protect the people who depend on him.

Then women and children became dependent on the state instead and the state assertied it's authority over everything that used to belong to the family.

But, of course, the state actually can't take care of them (or love them) so then it had the perfect excuse to enslave men, so that women and children could depend on them *through* the state.

"Patriarchy" is just a word they used to demonize the family by demonizing men to centralize all the power.
