Whenever we’re ready to talk about the fact that an overwhelming percentage of Anti-Asian hate crime was perpetrated by other people of color, not white people, then we can have a real conversation about what needs to addressed. Check the arrest records and mug shots.
Whenever get the courage to be honest about the real tensions between blacks and Asians, then and only then, will we discover what needs to be addressed. Until then, we’re playing silly word games with the “white male”/“white supremacy” scapegoat. mercurynews.com/2021/12/15/six…
I would love for more Asian America activists like @minjinlee11 to address the black-on-Asian violence crisis and address why this was more the norm in the Anti-Asian violence.

I’m now following about 2K fraternities as research for my next book. It’s become very clear that the discourse about “the patriarchy” is outdated & not based on data. That will be impossible in the future. We have a generation & a half of dad-deprived men with a purpose void. Image
That purpose void is leading to: spiking male suicide, drug addiction, spiking male high school dropout rates, workforce participation declines, spiking male depression & anxiety disorders, etc. Talking about the world of elite 50/60 years olds (executives) obscured the crisis.
What happens when you’re told that everything in the world is bad because “men like you exist?” Answer: the search for self-efficacy becomes distorted. Shaming an entire class of humans won’t make them better humans.

What people often miss historically about the abuse of women in the history of Christianity: clergy & leaders had free rein to be abusive toward women because men (fathers, husbands, brothers...) were largely absent. It's been a religion of clergy + women. amazon.com/Clios-Consciou…
So many women have written about this (Ann Douglas) amazon.com/Feminization-A…

When you ask college guys *why* they join frats you’ll hear them say that it’s the first time their ever experienced brotherly-love in community, being accepted as they are, having group encouragement & support, guys building them up, etc. This guy’s a Christian & needed a frat.
The K-12 isolation for boys must be significantly underreported. Schools & religious communities aren’t addressing the issue. Campus ministries are 70-80% women so they can’t help. Even FCA & other sports ministries are now essentially women’s ministries. amazon.com/dp/1479818135/…
I’m followed about 2,000 frats across the country and this is the first week in a long while that I have no seen a post about a fraternity guy committing suicide. Sadly, going a week or so is a victory. That’s how dire things are.

This isn't really true. Maybe he only knows a few people so the sample size is small. But the evangelical dunking on Jordan Peterson is often out of envy. He's a Jungian psychologist and I've known lots of guys exhibiting "Fruits of the Spirit" after reading "The 12 Rules" book.
Evangelical pastors need to ask this question, "Why are young men listening to Jordan Peterson and not us?" If the pastors were speaking helpfully into the world of young men, they wouldn't be listening to Peterson tell them to "always be truthful." fathommag.com/stories/the-vo…
Also, if you really want to know why evangelical pastors (even the hipster/cool ones) don't seem to understand the fascination with Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan, etc., this may have something to do with it (when you look at church history). blog.acton.org/archives/12293…

CRT is 100% being taught in some K-12 schools. He got this one wrong. How do you miss the fact that someone in Washington Post talked about how they learned CRT in high school? Why do people believe CRT is not in *some* K-12 schools? washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…
“In a Tuesday Detroit Board of Education meeting, Detroit Public Schools Community District General Superintendent Nikolai Vitti said the 50,000-student district is teaching CRT.” thecentersquare.com/michigan/despi…

Southern Baptist Convention, 1915: "So long as there is social inequality, industrial justice or political crime, the kingdom of God is not yet fully come....The Kingdom of God is not a Sunday affair. It must pervade the factory that runs six days a week as well as...
the Sunday morning services?" Why, said the SBC? "Some think of the kingdom of God as narrow, effeminate and sentimental. The exact opposite is true. It is board, masculine, and practical." (1) this shows how things change. Matt 28:18-20 wasn't the focus .amazon.com/Separation-Chu…
(2) Social justice has always been used to drawn men back into the church. The SBC was a social gospel denomination in 1915. What happened? By the 1950s, they were defending Jim Crow. Think about this. Cultural influence really is *that* powerful on influencing religious beliefs.
