    While I agree that Men’s mental health is important, I have to ask - why the fuck is this posted here? Like what even is this community anymore? I thought it was supposed to be for memes, but instead all I see is political bullshit, actual troll posts, AI slop, and this off-topic stuff…

    Why don’t the mods here care about the community?

      And why is the blue heart an AfD symbol while there are “multiple” Germans running around upvoting each other, ignoring that fact, and calling feminists the real sexists while OP’s name is literally Pepe?

    To my fellow men: ignore the gaslighters in here. NAMI endorses this month, and they are a highly regarded non-profit for mental health advocacy and support. I don’t think OP posted it here ironically b/c they actually posted the NAMI link outlining their support of men’s mental health.

    Hope you all the best and take care of yourselves. Also, if you feel alone, NAMI has a search engine to help find support groups, meetup has a lot (just gotta expand your city search for remote meetups), always explore your insurance’s therapy coverage if you have insurance, and if all that fails, chatgpt provides some decent feedback and perspective without marginalizing your experiences like an asshole would.

      It’s the thing stoping you realizing there is more of you than of them and tgat if you all realized this, you could just seize it and be free of their leverage. Free of the occupying invaders of your soul.

    Maybe we should just do the opposite and encourage suicide? I won’t ever be able to shake the idea that if my entire gender in the US blew their brains on on nov 4th the entire world would be a better place.

    Irs not like this is even a real thing anyway. They only time I have heard it mentioned is in a shit post on a reddit knock off

    Is this an old image or do people actually want to do a men’s health month in the same month as Pride?

    There is no men’s (mental) health month. It’s an attempt to set it up to compete with pride for June. It carves a perfect seperation, there is no argument that men’s health isn’t important, but riling up all cis males against all none cis males is perfect culture war.

    OP’s handle is literally King Pepe 🐸

      This link specifically mentions that NAMI considers mental health part of men’s health month. And if you think an organization that is chaired primarily by women and is a massive LGTBQ advocacy group (as they still have their DEI initiatives in place) supports this b/c they’re trying to sow division, you have an agenda not a credible argument.

      There are only 12 months.

      There always will be a lot of overlap with all kinds of stuff people are trying to get into the spotlight of public attention.

      Pride, men’s health, whatever. It’s all degraded into yet more fucking marketing with its monthly advertising channel called “calendar months” for publicity over which agendas compete.

      Your very statement is making this exact notion more than obvious.

      That sounds very paranoid.

      there is no argument that men’s health isn’t important

      Read the comments in this very thread.

    I used to check all boxes. I feel I don’t check any box now (even if I should probably do therapy for minor stuff here and there).

    I also try to give back and talk with my friends or even strangers. Still it’s astonishing how many people live in denial and refuse any change in their behaviour.
