The Rant: The Toxicity of Gender Wars

Are you not tired, isn’t it exhausting? Because I’m drained! These gender wars are toxic. It is ruining our younger generation. The modern woman wants an emasculated simpleton for a husband, and the traditional man wants a submissive maidservant for a wife. If it is not the high value man vs the boss lady, it is the alpha male against the independent woman. They really go at it. They go all out being as disrespectful and hateful as they can be towards each other. It is very toxic. Very exhausting!

Have you ever witnessed a blue pill and the red pill debate? There is just so many silly contradictions with this classification or dichotomy-or whichever way to want to call it. According to the movie matrix, the blue pill is supposed to be those caught in the illusory and enchantment of traditions and are comfortable to stay like that; they hate change. And red pill is the critical thinking, emotionally intelligent, intellectually stimulated and very progressive ones who have unravelled the hidden truth, hence being very open to change. So, explain to me why men of the red pill and their pick me women are so reactionary, traditionalistic, emotional, aggressive and illusioned. And why are those of the blue pill outrageously progressive, self-entitled, very angry and disillusioned. Just make it make sense. This is the reason why you and I must abandon ship and move away from all this nonsense.

We keep consuming the toxicity of this dichotomy while the voices behind them hop and skip off happily with big smiles to the bank. It’s disgusting how people are making careers out of this toxicity. It’s appalling but then again, we can’t blame these grifters. We give them the views, the subscriptions, the likes and even worship them like they are some sages, venerable ones; like some immortals leading us towards the summum bonum. No, my friend, there is no eudaimonia in what they preach.

The rhetoric on both sides is toxic and damaging to society. It turns you against the other. It fills you up with the us against them mentality and makes you feel pious and hateful towards the other whom you see as the infidel, the cause of your problems and the chaos of society. It consumes you with hate and corrupts your sanctity and peacefulness. Be responsible, preserve your heart and mind, preserve your consciousness. The level of toxicity we are encouraging on our social media platforms is devastating to healthy life. Avoid these platforms and discussions. Give less attention and they will expire because our next generation must be protected from this toxicity.

In case you feel that this dichotomy is inevitable because you have to identify with one of the two, I’m here to say no you don’t have to. All you need is to work towards the apprehension of self-transcendence and become the agency of interconnectedness, the conduit for the health and wellbeing of society. We live in a world where ambiguities of spirituality and therapy themes such as self-love and self-care incites individualism and shapes people into characters of self-absorption and self-centeredness. And this has taken away our perception and understanding of the essence of communion and interconnectedness in community life.

As a human being, if your existence and pursuits do not empower, inspire, encourage, improve, or heal others within your orbit of life then you are the problem. You lack the spirit of interconnectedness. This is why the gender wars are stupid and dangerous because they tear each other down and undermines the sanctity and primordiality of the concept of family. Please stay toxicity free: preserve your mind, your sanctity and pursue peacefulness.
