And now I'm hoping the quotation marks protect me from cancer...

Conversely, if the "equality" program is prohibited from routinely redistributing wealth, power, and prestige, than is not the only way to accomplish this to reduce the benefits benevolently extended by the program to the lowest common denominator? I.e everyone gets the same amount of "stuff" as the most mininalistic and self disciplined person? If thats the case, how is this not "oppressive" to those that have a natural inclination to desire and/or consume more?

Or are we talking about an unlimited buffet table where everyone can have as much power prestige and money as their hearts desire? Explain.

Im trying to understand you, but it just does not compute. Please break it down for me. For the party of "science", i find it hard to understand how we can so easily dismiss Malthusian economics, because the only way in which "Marxism" can exist is if the supply of Money, Power, and Prestige is unlimited (and then in that case, we're not talking about reality, now are we?)

You're moving the goalposts.

In your prior post, you placed the blame squarely on the shoulders of "Capitalism" you cannot transmute this statement to mean "all non communism isms". That is the definition of moving the goalposts. Please stay within the confines of your own assertions.

Now, if there is 100$, and we split it equitably at 50$ each.....you're compulsive and wasteful and you blow your money 30 seconds later, whilst I am disciplined and minimalist and only use my money for sustenance leaving me 45$ at the end of the day, how can we be "equal" tomorrow? Do we need to split it in half again since there's technically no "difference" between us and the equation must always be balanced?
IDK what the hell you're talking about.

But My original post is objective fact. We are currently living in a capitalist system with a capitalist media that enviably sells a capitalist image of success to men and women alike.

In yet the alt right wants to blame feminists (a capitalist creation partially), marxists, probably mexicans and other boogie men for capitalism not working for them.

You yourself blame them for not being capitalist minded enough and pulling themselves up by their boot straps. The American people just need to live up to capitalism and it will be fine!

And by Capitalism -- to be clear -- I'm not talking about German capitalism or Northern European capitalism etc...I'm talking American "Liberal Market Economy" Capitalism.

I think it is more likely that American Capitalism sells this idea to women that they all deserve a upper middle class lifestyle. At the same time, that lifestyle is objectively getting harder and harder to obtain. Entry level jobs are particularly hard to get for new graduates. They pay more poorly these days and it takes longer to compete with a wider field for a few well paid jobs.

So this creates a sense of hopelessness in some young men. Probably the ones that aren't naturally attractive so need money and social success for any self confidence at all.

Your first statement is correct.

Your second statement is a lie.

If you're going to go on a Marxist rant, conjuring boogeyman after these first two statements, i'm not going to read that shit. First, you have to prove Marxist theory to be true. So far you've done everything you can to dodge that challenge. How can you have a "Fair" system of "Equal output" when the inputs are not equitable, and the supply is limited?

Why the hell do I have to go into any of this?

No I do not have to "prove Marxism is true" to make an observation about our media being capitalist and men falling short of the projected image of success.
