The male loneliness epidemic is self inflicted because boys refuse to accept change as a natural part of the world and accept their behaviors were wrong, they’d rather dig their heels in and blame women.
Do you think the “male loneliness epidemic” is just natural selection

It is neither about men nor women. It’s really about the expansion of internet culture that makes it too easy to join fringe groups and justifying toxic behavior. The internet is a tool to make sharing data convenient but people use that tool to basically join bad groups and then go into real life forcing people into their fantasies.

Also due to the internet culture, the third spaces in real life are vanishing which then also contributes to isolation among people when it is common not to know the neighbors versus the past. So in the end it’s basically how people use the data they have access to.

it does have so much to do with patriarchy and misogyny and it’s very out of touch to pretend it doesn’t

Yeah sure, both genders are lonely. However, when it comes to specifically “the male loneliness epidemic” there are other factors to consider. If it was just the internet, then it would simply be a loneliness epidemic and not specific to men. Mostly due to how they’re socialized, which they have to break out of in order to make their own deep connections that don’t only center around women.
