I think progressives never thought about this because we banked on immigration and demographic change allowing us to win culturally and electorally but the issue is immigrants tend to be overwhelmingly male, that is how Trump won actually he won over a lot of Hispanic,Black,Asian and indigenous men who feel humiliated by a new culture, economy and world.

So what can we do rhetorically and policy wise to win more young men over ?

    1. Erect such high standards of moral purity that you cannot possibly win elections.
    2. Lose elections.
    3. Complain about how those in power never make anything better.
    4. Maintain your sense of moral superiority, since if you never have power, you can never fuck up.

      1. Win elections without caring how you win.
      2. Elected representatives do nothing for you , because they only care for wining and they don’t even know how to improve people’s lives.
      3. Proceed lo lose elections to the worst opposition candidates because wining without substance left people out of any hope for the electoral system.
      4. Left wing party straight up disappears as it has happened in several european countries because voting for them and make them win achieved anything.
