    Stop what? Stop it how? Suddenly make every parent in the US loving, compassionate, and effective at raising their children? Or maybe we could just fix the economy? One of those is bound to work, easy!

      There is no easy solution and the fact your dismissive and snarky reply is so upvoted is kind of proof that there is no fixing the situation anymore

      The hard solution is to first deplatform their demagogues but since they make their media platforms ridiculous money, it isn’t changing

      There’s also a significant possibility we simply won’t be having real elections in America anymore so the chance to get progressive people in office to curb this is over

        If deplatforming and political action by the ruling class are the main methods to stop this crisis, then none of us had any power to do anything in the first place

        It’s no wonder no one takes this seriously: the epidemic of disaffected young men is only a symptom of greater societal issues and can’t effectively be addressed on its own. That’s also what I was getting at with my comment

        At this point, anything start rolling, it’s already too late to stop it. Nothing we can do but brace for the worst.
