The conventional wisdom among MRAs and those who are Generically Red Pill more generally is typically articulated as follows: "We're not winning the support of a broad cross section of the public, because The System is hopelessly rigged and Gynocentric". Putting aside for one moment all questions as to whether jargon like "Gynocentrism" holds any more water than Woke terms like Structural Racism do, there could be a far more probable explanation for the state of stagnation this iteration of The MRM has found itself in, since it's 18 minutes of fame came to an abrupt end in '19...... Namely, the fact that support for HUMAN RIGHTS more generally has diminished over the past four decades https://www.spiked-online.com/2021/08/31/one-afghan-human-being-is-worth-more-than-a-million-afghan-dogs/

Quote: "But beyond all of that lurks a far greater moral issue – how much do we value human life? Do we accept that a human being’s life is worth more than a dog’s life? Do we, in fact, accept that the life of one human being has more moral worth than the continued existence of an entire species of dog? I do. Many others, alas, do not. This is the motor of so much animal-rights activism, of our pity for donkeys and of other forms of animal fetishisation in the modern era – the relativistic notion that human beings and animals are not that different; the creeping idea that it is ‘speciesist’ to suggest that people are more important than animals. Only in a world in which the value of humanity has been degraded, and in which beasts have madly been elevated to our moral equals, could we even be having a discussion about saving cats and dogs from the hellhole of Taliban-conquered Afghanistan

....We need to talk about our moral priorities, about the specialness of humankind in comparison with the flora and fauna that surround us. To my mind, every human life is almost immeasurably valuable, for the sentience and consciousness and promise that it embodies. One human life is worth a million animal lives. If saving just one Afghan person’s life might somehow have entailed condemning every dog in that country to destitution or death, I would not hesitate to do it. Until we rediscover what is different and important about humanity, we will be forced to inhabit the cesspit of moral relativism in which 150 cats and dogs tug at our heartstrings more than the cries of our desperate and scared human allies."

What's described here isn't unique to The UK either. Here in The US, a ferocious legal crusade to have Happy The Elephant granted personhood status went all the way up to The State Supreme Court Of New York recently https://www.npr.org/2022/06/14/1105031075/bronx-zoo-elephant-not-person-court-rules , and WAS NOT unanimously opposed by every judge on court. In '16, global outrage erupted over Harambe The Gorilla being shot to protect the life of a child who'd fallen into the enclosure https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/may/31/human-life-more-gorilla-killed-cincinnati-boy-fell-enclosure

In an era where the notion that the lives of animals are just as, or even more important than human lives, is no longer a fringe belief but one that's held unquestioningly by a substantial portion of self-loathing Homo Sapiens throughout The Industrialized World, are se really surprised that the slogan "Men are humans too" isn't gaining traction? I can't say that I am
