We're always kind of the butt end of the joke. The war on men, quote unquote, has obviously

Christianity as well. Christianity is what made men great. It's what made them moral. I don't

history. Unless you've read this book, you probably aren't even aware of the history behind

what is now the war on toxic masculinity. Not many know the catastrophic impacts

of, let's say, the industrial revolution and how that directly birthed the feminist movement.

YouTube just like deleted my channel for a few? Out of nowhere. They said because we were we were posting

nudity. What? Okay. And then they had to reinstate it because they said, you didn't violate any
