Great interview with Scott Galloway

[enchanted]

Some good criticism of the left from the left

[Raze]

Scott is a moron. All he does is bring up issues others have been saying for years like it’s his new genius insight, then gives horrible explanations and solutions.

He said he thinks the solution for mens issues is men should drink alcohol and try to make more money.

@Razeis a moron all he does is share unembedded links and thinks he's a genius. 

Lol just joking, I'm sure you are a pretty cool dude in real life.

Gallow suggests getting more social and to be financially secure. Nothing wrong with that.

Same here, he speaks for the major demographic of the actualized.org forum: disenfranchised young men.

Biggest thing Scott Galloway does is he is able to talk about male issues in a way that the left don't lose their shit over. That is definitely important.

Yep.

Also he HEAVILY advocates for the need and (current gap) for strong male role models men can get behind. The role of "fathers" is really important.

He doesn't advocate for returning to a previous system, or trying to change others. I like how he is more focussed on how men can cultivate integrity and worth through changing themselves and not blaming external factors. I think it is a self empowering message to run against the hopeless nihilism much of the younger generations are faced with in current culture. He emphasises how a lot of male suicide is punctuated common narratives around feeling "useless" and worthless. Pointing toward males having a deep need to provide value for their themselves as a natural manifestation of masculinity - and not because they are forced to be value providers by external incentive structures (that's not to deny there aren't significant external incentives at force, more that this is actually a positive masculine trait that produces positive self worth when fertilised).

Less 'society needs to fix this' and more recovering male agency, meaning & competence.

This is too simple and falls into the reductionist trap. He says alcohol is one potential way to assist with socialization but its a mechanism to loosen up - and there are others. You've also twisted his message of cultivating purpose and value into straight making money - he never claims this is the only way to actualise as a man. This is just your stripped down interpretation.
