  • Les differences semblent être que:

    Pour les pro-autoroutes, la récolte a été fait sur une période contenant 2 weekends et sur des zones desservies par la future autoroute, tandis que les anti-autoroute ont ratissé plus large (l’ensemble des 2 départements) et sur une période en semaine.

    On peut supposer que les pro ont récolté plus d’avis de personnes qui travaillent et qui vont bénéficier de l’artère de communication, alors que les anti ont pris principalement des non-actifs et des personnes non concernés directement.

    Conclusion?

    “Il y a trois sortes de mensonges: le mensonge ordinaire, le parjure et les statistiques.”

    Chacun à fait un sondage en cherchant à obtenir la réponse qui soutiendrait son point de vue, et on n’est pas plus avancé.

  • For me this is the crux of the issue:

    To Galloway, neither the left nor the right — which can seem compelling to rudderless young men — are providing a genuine alternative. “The far right conflate masculinity with cruelty,” he says, referencing Tate and Vladimir Putin. “The far left thinks that men should, quite frankly, act more like women. Neither of those is productive.”

    Men, especially young men, today are stuck in a no man’s land where they know that the toxicity of the past is not what’s socially acceptable, but no one’s giving them a model of what they can be. They are collateral damage of the culture wars.

    Andrew Tate (just writing that name feels dirty) and his clique are exploiting this to cultivate hate and toxicity, but the traditional feminist approach that “Men should get in touch with their feminine side” will leave them isolated socially from their peers and emotionally.

    The middle road will not be feminine and won’t be the traditional masculine role that’s still very present in culture, but will be a place where men can confidently own their vulnerability.

    Edit: spelling








  • The answer is in the article I think.

    These groups thrive in the void that is self help for men.

    The classic feminist discourse doesn’t speak to men as it was designed by and for women to allow emancipation.

    The disconnect with classical feminism is best evocked by the trans community where trans men explain how surprised they were at the reality of being a man in today’s world.

    There isn’t much if anything around to help young men learn how to be a man in the 21st century, so they are inevitably drawn to the simple but toxic solutions people like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson provide.

    This void used to be filled with the pick-up artist community, so this issue isn’t new.

    The obvious counter would be for feminist groups like ours to also provide non toxic solutions to the issues boys and men face so that they can go into the world.

    There is a way to be manly and tolerant and express your needs and wants healthily. We’re learning it the hard way. We need to make it easier for the next generation. I’m saying this as a father of 3 boys.

    Pet peeve, but even the name feminism is going to be a hard sell when you’re trying to explain to boys how to be men.
