Tate's obviously joke comment aside, what the society frames as toxically masculine is everything that makes a man feel good about himself - being assertive, being truthful, having female attention without worshipping women, having and holding women to a standard. Tate became a synonymous with that even though he's a caricature.
Remember that 10 years ago, Jordan Peterson, the guy that hates Tate for fucking his daughter, was accused of being a toxically masculine male because he taught his followers to stand with their backs straight.
It's always been a dishonest label, a generational shit test that most men failed due to culture's programming. That dominance denied to whites creates a vacuum, and whites are only allowed to enjoy it by proxy via this fetish. If you see it any other way, you're either not very intelligent or you're just a bad faith agent (crazy on a porn board).
>>28985841Similarly to your colleague, you don't know what you're talking about, or you're a liar. These terms are so loaded, they can change their meaning depending on the accuser's mood.
If you two were women and I just doubled down that you're dumb and ignorant based on what you've said, you could counter, saying my assertiveness is toxic masculinity, and have it be accepted by the public. Even when it's CLEAR you're both dumb and ignorant.
That's how powerful these accusations have become.
They encompass all male behavior that's seen as a potential threat to the system.
