Because they aren’t pretending to be educated on politics by wearing it on a shirt, going into political Talk Shows, and attempting to make extensive political a***ysis outside of their Art Form

Making an ignorant take within your Art is an ignorant take within your art. Kanye is taking it to another level by pushing an agenda in fields beyond his expertise with much more ramification than making albums

It’s reckless, unprincipled, and undisciplined.

Your theory is that mainstream media is trying to feminize and emasculate men in order to control them.

Did you see Googles recent 2FA commercial ad campaign? Almost exclusively all lgbt community actors

https://youtu.be/c-_XZL19m08
They’re literally just platforming Gay folks in the ad. How is promoting Gay creators bad for the consciousness of the Male? They aren’t turning anyone gay BY simply existing. They aren’t even saying much in the ads

Or the recent old spice campaign? It’s just a series of scenarios where women disrespect men or show men being effeminate

Old Spice “Men Have Skin Too” Returns, Embraces Diversity and Inclusion On and Off Screen - https://news.pg.com/news-releases/news-details/2022/Old-Spice-Men-Have-Skin-Too-Returns-Embraces-Diversity-and-Inclusion-On-and-Off-Screen/default.aspx

The common trope of American media for the past 20ish years is that the husband is a dumb idiot and the wife is smart and rational (family guy, The Simpsons, American Dad). In those shows, they even extend that trope to the sons and daughters

You just named three cartoons with the same producers/ inspired by the Simpsons. Its not just American media that does this, and this trope has existed forever because it’s a reflection of how we perceive (Head-Strong)Masculinity and (Soft and mostly Rational)Feminity and its relationship throughout time. Also, in a traditional marriage in which the men fit traditional gender roles and the women fit traditional gender roles as well (putting up with men, cooking dinner, shopping, henpecking); it actually benefits male patriarchy by affirming gender roles and playing into anti-feminist tropes.

Give me an example of any show where it is the opposite dynamic. I’ll wait…

Three’s Company and any show with the Dumb Blonde Stereotype

A trope that has existed since Dom Coms became popular in The '50s, married couples in fiction tend to enforce gender stereotypes. The husband is portrayed as lazy, immature, irresponsible, and if he's a father, a Bumbling Dad. The wife is portrayed as the voice of reason who's more mature, sensible, and responsible; her main role is to keep her husband in line, as if being a housewife isn't enough trouble. Her role to her husband may be more motherly than spousal, which may cause him to be submissive to his domineering wife.
The husband may not particularly be outright stupid, but rather he has poor impulse control and may be an Overprotective Dad, while the wife may be Only Sane by Comparison and have very low moral standards when her husband isn't around, also veering into My Beloved Smother territory if she's a mother. The wife will often try to beg her husband not to get into any kind of danger.

And do you really think James Charles would be as popular a figure if they weren’t gay? Even if they were just straight and still wore makeup and all that etc . They wouldn’t be pushed as heavily onto the mainstream consciousness bc they wouldn’t fit their agenda

James Charles wouldnt be who he is now if he wasnt gay. It’s something that’s forever tied to his personality so you can’t remove it without completely changing the person. There are straight makeup artists on YouTube and of course, they arent that popular because people who wear makeup typically are GAY or WOMEN. This makes no sense and James Charles is not even that popular outside of People who are online and under 35. He is famous but he isnt even one of the most famous gay people in the world ATP.

Have you ever seen a mainstream movie where a gay character is the villain or does anything that can be objectively seen in a bad moral light? The answer is no. The closest thing there is to that is the recent Dahmer Netflix thing but that’s a recount of historical events not a (fully) fictional story

You are aware of the terrible s*** gays have had to endure throughout history, especially through media? Apparently not.

This isn’t a homophobic post. I’m not scared of nor have anything against gay ppl or lgbt community. But they are being used by the powers that be to control the populace through shaming, cancel culture & virtue signaling.
Whenever the Romans would invade a new territory, they would kill almost all of the military aged men and teenagers (even kids as young as 13). The reason why is because the men are the most likely to revolt and cause the new regime physical harm. The same thing is happening in real time in America.

People voicing their opinions and becoming more sensitive on certain topics isin’t because of us becoming “softened up” so that we stay controlled, it’s because we are a more understanding society. Nowadays a lot of people who rather not offend people and want to avoid hurting someone's feelings especially when inclusion is important so that people arent homophobic, racist, etc.. The argument you hold is one that people always have for minorities (black, latin, asian, gay, women, etc).
Romans killed children, you are comparing a gay makeup man to Men who would conquer, rape, and murder the population. I think the ruling class is controlling us via the media and harmful tropes, especially with how they portray Black people and Latinos. You are falling for a theory that has gotten gay folks killed all because you think the Ruling Class would benefit from accepting certain things in Society. To conclude, gay people have unconventional ways of living which is a threat to American Commonality. They have always been more vocal against the government’s oppression of them and others. Remember when they spread AIDS to niggas and gay folks but now they want more?.
Your comment disrespects people like James Baldwin, Marsha P. Johnson and those who came before and after them.

The dumb blond stereotype was almost never attributed to the wife of a main character, only ever side characters so it’s not the same comparison and regardless I said in the original post

In the last 20 years

That trope has barely been a thing in mainstream television the last 20 years unless it’s put in solely to demonize its own usage

The Big Bang Theory unironically used the dumb blonde as the female lead/main love interest/eventual wife and the men were always portrayed as smarter than her, later they added smart females too but still it hasn’t been 20 years since that shift

There are more gay people now than ever before per capita and it’s not just because “people are more comfortable being themselves/coming out”

Same for transgender identifying people. There was an upward spike in T population after Bruce Jenner transitioned into Caitlyn Jenner publicly

And we now have gender affirmation surgery and therapy in children being more prevalent than ever before as well.

You would think that at some point these numbers would level out lol but nah they only go up
