Do men feel marginalized in America and, if so, is that influencing who they support politically?
Post Body

Steve Bannon recently said “Don't chase the marginal Karen in a suburb that's got a college degree, just trying to kowtow to her to convince her to support our movement and support Trump when we have tens of millions of men that have punched out of the system because of the way immigration and all the society is stacked against them.”

Does this ring true for American men? If you feel that society is “stacked against you.” If so, why? What has happened to you to make you feel that way? And does that feeling influence your political views? Could it be that politicians are playing into this narrative? What policies would you want enacted to change this?

They don't, though.

The right doesn't actually care about the problems most men face beyond weaponizing them as examples and preying on the negative feelings around those problems.

What's the right's rhetoric around the majority of men's problems?

"Suck it up, deal with it, men are strong, men aren't weak."

It's feeding into the same dynamic that creates these problems in the first place or else it's just nakedly violent reactionary antagonism towards women. They look at men's problems as entirely women's fault and direct their anger towards women.

The right talks to men the way a recruiter talks to suicide bombers.
