. . .but I kinda am & we have the right to celebrate every tiny victory we get. The World Cup just became the greatest Men’s advocate ever. . .& all we did was be ourselves!

The entire planet has eyes on America; going viral everyday for something new & something different. . .and every bit of it contradicts the image those in our own country have pushed out to the rest of the world.

I’ve seen 5 different videos from people visiting 4 different states flabbergasted at how single & groups of 2 or 3 women are able to comfortably walk around with no one harassing them or even speaking to them; wearing high end accessories, showing plenty of skin & loudly enjoying themselves. I’ve seen, at least, 15 videos mentioning no police or security being around where hundreds of people (obviously WOMEN included) were drinking, dancing, chanting & partying. There are COUNTLESS videos mirroring each other like:

“This guy just paid for our meal!”
“This guy just bought me & my wife drinks!”
“This guy just invited my family to a barbecue with his family!”
“This guy actually drove us to [whatever location] b/c he said we would get lost.”

. . .and sorry, ladies, but this is not hyperbole - they, literally, stated “This guy” every single time & not once “This woman/lady”; outside of greetings/conversation. The content creators from other countries are having a field day showcasing how evil some of the things said of Western / American men were, but even those with no agenda are carrying a monster torch for us, boys!

. . .and all we had to do was be us.

((Remember, folks: “UNPOPULAR opinion”. . .not my personal worldview &/or political leanings.))

As of right now,
The United States of America is embroiled in a massive ideological battle between its citizens on the subject of borders, immigration & deportation. There’s also an ongoing battle regarding women’s rights (especially regarding abortion); including the different considerations for biological sex vs gender ideologies. The President is absolutely DESPISED by a massive conglomerate of American citizens AND the country is in a defacto state-of-war with Iran (regardless of the “cease fire” agreements that seem to pop up every 48 hrs). . .

. . .and yet, for a month+, America has consistently gone viral with citizens of other countries praising every aspect of American culture & stating their desire to become a member of this society. Many supported those issues (mentioned above) from afar in the past, but now claim they feel as though they’ve been betrayed & lied to their entire lives regarding American people, hospitality, food, fun, guns, danger (especially regarding women), etc etc etc

Whether they are right, wrong or indifferent, there is an inexhaustible plethora of foreign citizens that, not only adore the America they’ve experienced, but defend Americans & American culture to anyone who will listen. So, while these issues are not EXCLUSIVELY one political party or another, I really can’t see how the people who witnessed America firsthand & ecstatically praise America across the board will be swayed by any “left leaning” arguments they hear in person or see online in the future.

Just my thoughts - what are yours?

In a few of the “unpopular opinion groups, I posted (below):

***”Unpopular opinion: Blaming men for “female led movie” flops is not empowering women; quite the opposite actually.

In the BILLION dollar platform that is the NFL, more than 30 teams have packed up & relocated due to lack of support. There are 15 now-defunct NBA franchises. 27 MLB teams & more than 40 NHL franchises have relocated or cease to exist, today, and there are 71 men’s pro sports LEAGUES (not “teams” - “LEAGUES!”) that are no longer around due to lack of support. . .

. . .and not once not ever not never has anyone EVER blamed women for any of it. It’s OUR (men’s) league - if we want it, we support it. If we don’t want it, we don’t support it. It’s just that simple for us. When women put the onus of their “flops” on men, they are saying they can’t be successful without men’s support. When they blame men’s early reviews for the abysmal cinema showings, they’re saying that women can’t decide for themselves whether the movie is quality or not. That is, quite literally, the opposite of ‘empowerment’, my friends.

((and here’s the kicker: If ZERO men. . .and only 1/5th of American women (ONLY American women) supported Supergirl (w/America’s average ticket price at $16) - it would’ve cleared $500million. How, on earth, can men be blamed for women not showing up??))”***

During that time period, Mike moved his family from a tiny house in Indiana to a massive mansion in Cali, had gone platinum 30X, was collaborating with Barry Gordy & Quincy Jones, owned a plethora of exotic animals (chimps, giraffes, llamas, peacocks, etc), donated millions to aid people all over the world, regularly sold out arenas that housed 100,000+ people. . . 

. . .& b/c he was still living in the same house as his parents, brothers & sisters - modern women would’ve claimed he was a bum & not “high value”🤣 

For me, it was:

***”The Original Kings of Comedy”*** (2000)
— skipped school with a female friend & caught the matinee

&

***”Avengers: ENDGAME”*** (2019)
— both times I caught it in theaters
