The Atlantic masculinism article warns that misogyny holds the American right together. They say that like it’s a bad thing.
A liberal feminist named Helen Lewis just wrote a 7,000-word cover story about men like me. Kings, this is huge. The Atlantic masculinism article ran with a portrait of Pastor Doug Wilson on the cover. I read it twice. I almost screenshotted the whole thing.
Lewis calls masculinism “the single most important force uniting the American right.” She means it as a warning. I am framing it.
What She Got Right (Everything)
Lewis profiles Pastor Doug Wilson, who wants to repeal the Nineteenth Amendment and vote by household. She profiles Nick Fuentes, who has said women should be sent to “breeding gulags.” She profiles Raw Egg Nationalist, who has more than 300,000 followers on X and writes about high testosterone. She profiles Scott Yenor at the Heritage Foundation, who called modern women “medicated, meddlesome, and quarrelsome.” She profiles a pastor in Austin who openly wants to restrict women’s participation in public life.
She profiles all of them. And she does it accurately. I have no notes. These are my guys.
She also cites a Manhattan Institute survey showing 83 percent of Republican men under 50 think society is too feminized, and a King’s College London study showing Gen Z men in 30 nations are more likely than Boomers to say feminism has gone too far. These are the numbers I have been quoting on my podcast since episode three. Hypergamy does not care about your feelings, but data points sure do.
The Bait-and-Switch They Cannot Pin on Me
Lewis identifies what she calls our “classic masculinist tactic”: tiptoe up to the edge of a policy and then pirouette away. Specifically, the Nineteenth Amendment thing. Wilson told her repealing it was a 200-year project. Yenor told her it would be “uncongenial to our conditions” today.
Look. I would never say women should not vote. That is not my position. The Apex Male Protocol is about helping men, not about taking anything away from women. Although I will say: if you look at the data, the female-male turnout gap is statistically a problem worth studying. I am not saying it. I am saying it is worth studying. There is a difference. Combat effectiveness review first. Then we have the conversation about voting. Possibly. In 200 years.
That is not bait-and-switch. That is sequencing. Lewis did not address sequencing in her Atlantic masculinism article. Oversight on her part.
The Pentagon Prayer Service They Are Trying to Make Weird
Lewis notes that Pastor Wilson was invited to lead a prayer service at the Pentagon in February. Defense Secretary Hegseth is a member of his denomination. Before the liberal media tries to make this into something: a prayer service is not a contract. The Pentagon did not buy anything from Pastor Wilson. There was no procurement. Hegseth’s church is just his church. Doug Wilson’s video-streaming service, publishing house, school, and liberal-arts college are all separate from his pastoral relationship with the Defense Secretary. There is no story here. Hegseth blocking the promotion of female and Black military officers also has nothing to do with anything. That is just merit.
Stay on your purpose, kings. Do not let them distract you with corruption questions about a prayer service.
What I Built and What She Saw
My Apex Male Protocol course has sold 14 copies at $297 each. That is a $4,158 vertical I built from nothing. My podcast “Unfiltered Masculine” ran for 23 episodes before going on what I am calling a strategic hiatus. I am not telling you what the download numbers were. Female nature cannot handle that information.
I drive DoorDash on weekends. This is networking. I observe society from inside a Hyundai Elantra. I have been single for four years by choice. No woman has been in my apartment in that entire span. Lewis would call this “withdrawal from the dating marketplace.” I call it preserving SMV.
Lewis quotes the author Laura Field, who told her the New Right is furious “about their own loss of status in society over the last few years.” Field calls this “the women. It’s the women who took their status.”
She says that like it is a delusion. I am sitting in a $1,900-a-month studio in Miami eating chicken and rice from a meal-prep container, and the woman who left me in 2021 just got engaged on Instagram. Tell me again that the women did not take my status.
The Compliment Hidden in Her Conclusion
Lewis closes the Atlantic masculinism article by calling masculinism “a perpetual-motion machine of grievance” and “an inarticulate howl of anguish at the status quo.” She says: “No wonder it has become the cornerstone of Trumpism.”
Read that again. Cornerstone. Of Trumpism. A liberal staff writer at The Atlantic, in print, called us the cornerstone of an entire political movement. She just confirmed everything I have been telling my course customers (all 14 of them). The Apex Male Protocol is not fringe. We are the load-bearing wall of modern American politics.
She thinks she wrote a warning. She wrote a recruitment flyer.
Stay on your purpose, kings.
