I have a negative hunch about him which is that he is oriented towards pandering to women and unconstructively, uncompassionately, and uninsightfully criticizing suffering men.

Criticizing men when you are insightful and compassionate about what they're going through but still believe they need to improve something can be totally legitimate but something tells me he's not fully sincere about it.

The hunch is also influenced by how he dresses and my perception of the social milieu he's in in the upper Universities in the UK. It creates an unsubstantiated impression that his experience amongst academic British feminist types predisposes him to take a female-typical view of what men should be and because of that have very little sincere intention of helping men.

The vibe he gives me is that he dresses and works the way he does because he largely agrees with women's current uncharitable view of men and views his role as scolding them into compliance and wouldn't notice if he was doing it in a way that is counterproductive to men.

The problem is that this is a hunch or a vibe and could very easily be very wrong.

Never heard of him.

Red pills and black pills do often contain extremely unhealthy philosophy, imo.

You'd have to be blind to think boys are doing fine in schools, and sexist to think discrimination doesn't have something to do with it.

I also don't trust anything written by anyone who writes the word, "attractive," in the same title as, "trump and biden."

I am into the blackppill so I would like to know what arguments he has against it

Academia is highly disjointed and broken up into multiple disciplines.

Alex's citations whether or not they are peer reviewed or meta analyses are still part of the same institutions that are beholden to powers that be in regards to scope of funded research of pre-approved topics. Essentially meta analyses and peer review can be called 'following the status quo'

These institutions once under ideological capture regardless of whatever political alignment have a tendecy toward academic nepotism.

New researchers citing their professors work, swapping citations to manipulate their h index, all in a highly intellectually incestuous manner no different to circlejerking and virtue signalling.

Those who deviate from the norm are crushed early and probably denied research grants.

This is why self-discernment is so important in something as multifaceted as life.

I think there used to be interdisciplinary studies or humanities that tried to explain mutliple areas of study wholistically but those have been under leftist capture for years.

In the context of some of his work, whilst he does some psych based statistics, they don't touch upon how it intersects with gender politics and thus fails as an mental model that can help men from the oppression of women.

Toxic guy. Honestly most people on the internet are bad. If they would be good they wouldn’t be there in the first place.
