Honest question

DangZagnut · 2020-03-25T00:04:49+00:00

Race? Nope.

Are there racist MGTOW? Probably. Just like there are racist librarians.

Is MGTOW itself racist? There's nothing about MGTOW that says a thing about race, in fact you'll find a number of you tubers of different races making videos on the subject.

The war on the family was started by Democrats and waged on the black community in the 1960s. Johnson I believe.

Black men and boys are some of the biggest victims of the war in men. Fatherlessness, poor education.

Black men on YouTube are some of the most red pill men I know.

They are our oppressed brothers.

Owen_slaughter · 2020-03-25T00:35:46+00:00

Hell no.

DonMelbourne · 2020-03-25T01:28:48+00:00

No, nothing to do with race. There are MGTOWs of all races, countries and creeds. The commonality is that marriage now seems to be a bad deal for men throughout the world, and nothing to do with race.

This question stems from the piles and piles of assumptions I've heard about the MGTOW community.

Can I ask where you have read that? Are there any websites or articles in particular where you have seen that information? A lot of people come here expecting MGTOW to be alt-right Trump supporting white nationalists, whereas if you look on Youtube, there are a lot of black MGTOW Youtubers.

rquasius · 2020-03-25T01:26:03+00:00

hell no. lot's of brothers are mgtow.

NotherThrowaway284 · 2020-03-25T01:33:13+00:00

None.

Forging one's own identity means just that: forging it for yourself.

30203forever · 2020-03-25T02:00:41+00:00

"No legal entanglement with the women" usually means "no marriage or cohabitation". And none of those things has anything do do with any race, ethnicity or creed at all, IMHO.

Offscouring · 2020-03-25T04:54:13+00:00

No and it confuses me where this idea that they’re white supremicists even came from. I don’t care what colour you are or what country you’re from.

Jake4523 · 2020-03-25T04:57:06+00:00

I couldn't give two shits if your black, white, Mexican or whatever, as long as I know we have each others backs.

Sid_Insidious · 2020-03-25T06:19:05+00:00

Well, if you believe popular media that MGTOW = Alt-Right, then yeah. I'm a card-carrying racist cross burning red neck hillbilly. Except, I'm not.

ColonelAngus1978 · 2020-03-25T04:02:07+00:00

Not one bit.

PatnarDannesman · 2020-03-25T04:41:13+00:00

Never heard or seen anything about race from any MGTOW page, ever.

Maybe the idea comes from the media conflating men's rights with white supremacy. There's no relationship between those two just as there's no relationship or reference point between MGTOW and racial issues.

901735 · 2020-03-25T05:26:04+00:00

You mean as in, like many others, "Trying to find a way to escape the rat race."?

Offscouring · 2020-03-25T06:54:56+00:00

It is far easier to slander and dismiss a group that you disagree with, than it is to discuss things rationally. We get accused of a hell of a lot of shit I've never seen here.

I have been actively reading r/mgtow daily under one user name since it was a relatively small sub.
In that time I've seen men of all races welcomed with open arms. The few instances I have seen got nuked by the mods within minutes. That is far more than I can say of any of the default reddit subs.

Ar-Q-bid · 2020-03-25T04:28:52+00:00

MGTOW has nothing to do with race, although there are some white-nationalist types that have come across MGTOW because they feel disenfranchised by western media’s alleged recent vilification of white people.

That being said, there are plenty of black MGTOW you tubers. Asians (both south and East Asians) also post on this forum, including me.

Look up the hikimori men in Japan, I’d consider them MGTOW (although not exactly the finest examples of achieving male potential).

PhiPaul · 2020-03-25T07:38:07+00:00

No. Men are still men, whether they're from Europe, America, Asia etc, whether they are white, black, mixed etc. The religion, creed, politics don't matter as men will still be men and all women are like that regardless of them being in Australia, Alaska or anywhere else.

Equivalent-Craft · 2020-03-25T07:46:32+00:00

No racism on my part.

eatturddishes123 · 2020-03-25T14:25:44+00:00

dude i'm filipino iv'e never been called n word here.

IAmJacksGagReflex · 2020-03-25T16:30:49+00:00

The assumptions you've heard are clearly those of toxic people who feel the need to vilify that which they fear or couldn't be bothered to try to understand. It's much easier and less damaging to their world view to dismiss the MGTOW community as misogynistic/racist/whatever-phobic incels than it is to see them as human beings and try to understand where they're coming from. It's far less difficult to destroy a straw man than a rational argument.

kriskros18 · 2020-03-25T21:21:45+00:00

Nope. We are just brothers helping other brothers. Color or nationality plays no part.

lordlivingston · 2020-04-02T05:22:39+00:00

I'd argue that MGTOW as a community are more diverse than most Social Justice spaces.

You have men from all over the world, white, brown, black, tall, short, ripped, fat, it doesn't matter.

And best part is, we don't keep asserting it to make it true.

It just is.
