    Joe Rogan and Jon Bernthal discuss the problems with today's society and how unfair the path to the top is. Jon also weighs in on the term 'toxic masculinity' and how the overuse of the term has made it mean nothing. Andrew Tate thumbnail cause I really didn't know what else to use and it was still and interesting conversation to post.
    Jon Bernthal is an actor known for such roles as Sheriff's Deputy Shane Walsh in "The Walking Dead," vigilante Frank Castle in "The Punisher," and more recently, corrupt cop Wayne Jenkins in HBO's miniseries, "We Own This City." Bernthal is also the host of the weekly interview podcast series "REAL ONES with Jon Bernthal."

    This is so true. When I think about my life and the things I did in my life, and how pathetic of a person I was when I was younger, its actually a miracle that I came out of it even relatively unscathed. For so long thinking I was cool selling coke 100 miles an hour doing drugs, partying, getting into fights with other crews and people... All it would have taken was for me to get busted back then for my life to have potentially gone down a road that it would have been nearly impossible to come back from. Instead, I ended up with an assault causing bodily harm charge and 6 months house arrest... and thankfully I was able to climb out of that life and realize there was no future where I was going.... I look at how many of my friends died from overdose and I think about the drugs I have done and the states I have been in. I could have been just another statistic.
    Instead, I am now at the absolute pinnacle of my field as a computer storage architect. I travel all over the world and am the lead architect at one of the fastest growing compute and storage companies in the world. I was able to go back to university, get my computer science degree and begin absolutely thriving and blazing a trail because it is something that I truly love. It is astounding at how good you can be at something, and how far and how fast you can go when it is your passion.
    For anyone that might be struggling, in a terrible position where it looks like there might be no way out, I promise you there is a path. I'm not going to sugarcoat it and say everyone will be able to do it, because it's just not true... but you owe it to yourself to try.

      Idk. I guess it depends what part of what you think is so true. Everyone i know who had parents that had them in there 40s or when they were older and well off, most of those kids cant relate to there parents, and there parents are essentially grandparent age by the time there like 20, by the time they have kids they might not even be alive. Everyone i know whose closest with there parents, those kids parents had them when they were young. I live in new york and ive seen it quite a bit. Kids are naive, they might assume joe's hard working is what every dad is like. They might not realize how unique and probably dont honestly, realize how unique of a position joe has. Most guys his age arent like hitting there peak in income, rogan started blowing up when he started making youtube videos. Most guys his age are like, getting ready or are already retired lol.

    "Having a healthy relationship with violence, having an understanding of it..." probably one of the most important points in this segment, and a desperately needed teaching point for an increasingly agitated and fractured American culture. Such a mind state is not an advocacy for, or acceptance of, psychopathic behavior, but neither is it a denial of human nature; it is an evolutionarily necessary function when understood in context and used properly. For us to be here watching this, for those two men to have had their discussion--violence has driven us forward as a species just as much as peace, making our world possible; it is not an act or series of actions to be taken lightly, and should only be used with the utmost respect for what it has done, can-and-will do. Those who over-identify with one extreme socio-political view or another (some war-mongering MAGAt, or bleeding-heart leftie) fail to understand this completely.

    Everything he said about the differences and the major one sidedness of what we as a country put our funds into and support is something ill totally agree with. As someone who has mostly always been the provider in my relationships ( as a women), and also having been with abusive men, both physically and verbally, ill tell you that having some kind of outlet definitely is something that is needed. Especially when it comes to building back up your self esteem and self worth after the fact. Friends and close community groups, or even therapy has always been something that has made dealing with the trauma a little less painful, plus being around other people that have been through similar situations makes you not feel so lonely -isolated.

    I think it’s easy to talk about things while sounding intelligent but people need resources. The orphans, people who had abusive upbringings. The problem with our society is the fact that there isn’t free solutions. Everything costs money. People, especially men can spiral so far down into negativity and there’s help but it doesn’t usually change minds unless we can connect with people and not feel ashamed or alienated. Personally I’m fearless but I beat myself so much for how I act or what I say. I try to be mindful yet sometimes it’s hard af to break out of a downward spiral. Thanks for reading if you do. Love

      I grew up in a violent gang and drug type neighborhood. For me combat sports 100% kept me from going a bad route like some of the other neighborhood kids who got killed or ended up in jail. Serious work and discipline needed and taught, lack of ego, strong male role models. Did it cost money? Sure, but go into any boxing or MMA gym and tell them you're poor but really want to train and they'll work something out with you. Obviously you can't solve every kid's problem this way and also obvious that there are other resources out there.

      When I was younger at high school ( uk) we had someone come to the school to talk to us about drugs. We made a mockery and laughed and joked at what he was saying. He was pounding his fists on the floor telling stories if people he knew who had gone down bad paths from drugs and all we did was joke and say yeah never me etc etc, I now feel so bad for acting that way but life lessons are the best kind ( not encouraging any young people to try bad things but sadly most people only learn the hard way)

    For anyone who didn’t realize it’s. His point about “having a healthy relationship relationship with violence” is literally taken right out of Jordan Peterson’s book. “Men should be monsters but have the discipline to control those tendencies. It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a Gardner in a war. How else would one be able to protect his loved ones when it comes down to it?”

      JB is a fraud, a grifter. This is a man who sold millions of books claiming to have insight into how people can successfully navigate life all while he himself was using Xanax as a crutch. Then after, he lies by saying ‘I didnt know this drug would mess me up so bad……’ A licensed psychiatrist?? If he doesn’t know, then who would?? Lol
      Toxic masculinity exists. Just look a any white trash low income neighborhood of fathers or middle class suburb or high end wealthy corporate gathering……u will find it. Men who rule by the hand, who say things like ‘only a fag would wear pink’ or ‘She can get the coffee’…….Those r just a few, but for anyone to suggest ‘…..whatever that means’ they gotta dismiss a lot of reality. Maybe TWD guy just cant see beyond his own?

    Saying masculinity is "toxic" is equivalent in calling right "wrong." We knew this would happen, as it was written, but we did not know how perverse and backwards it would be. Proverbs 14:12

    As an Appalachian Ohioan who made it out, I can attest to how growing up there really limits your possibilities. What you see is all there is. You never leave your hometown. Most everyone is poor (by American standards). There’s nothing to inspire or drive you.
    You can’t even see your own limits because they’ve been there your whole life. You inherit them, and you hand them on in an ugly cycle of limited possibilities.
    Outsiders sometimes want to help, but Appalachians are suspicious. Why not? We’re exploited for our valuable resources (coal/oil) and watch them looted by big companies who laugh all the way to the bank… poisoning our people on the way.
    People back home don’t need handouts. They need hands-up. They need INVESTMENT. They work exceptionally hard, but the jobs are low paying. They ARE disciplined, but they aren’t exposed to ideas that give them the ability dream up a better way.
    It’s not all bad. You want to talk about people with love and integrity? Talk to us country folks. You want your kids to grow up with kindness, empathy, and understanding of grit? Send them to live with a Southeastern Ohio family for the summer. Then send them again. And again!
    It’s not quite like when I was growing up, but everyone needs to experience the hardship and happiness of low income living, in a slow, sleepy small town. Everyone needs to experience the good and bad of “if-y”cell phone signal and sometimes non-existent Internet service. Everyone needs to experience the isolation and QUIET of the country. Everyone needs to see the “ripple-ly” farmlands and rolling green hills scattered with horses and cows. Everyone needs the belonging and love of a small community. Even adults need it. (So go visit and see what it’s like for yourself.)
    My parents did an amazing job raising me. And luckily, I was a reader, so long before I ever saw a different part of the country, I’d already traveled the world! That’s why I made it out. But I’m soooo glad I grew up where I did, it made me the good human being that I am!
    Though… like Dolly Parton says: “No amount of money could buy from me, The memories that I have of then, No amount of money could pay me, To go back and live through it again”

    Much of what is characterized as "toxic masculinity", by modern feminists, are traits like aggression, competiveness, the subduing of emotions to get a goal accomplished. When put under the proper constraints, these things are not "toxic". Rather, these traits are the very bedrock upon which innovations and civilization grew. Its these very traits that led to the very comfortable world that allowed women to thrive.

    • @shivampachauri1200
      @shivampachauri1200 Рік тому

      But that's the cue. If these urges are put on a leash... If not... They are what toxic masculinity is. Subduing emotions continuously to get anything done causes repression and pent up anger and resentment... Really bad for ur mental health and it's scientifically proven. Any feminist would suggest think of a better approach... Which is letting that current of emotion flow and when the mind is clear... Then take the next step. It also helps us harness our emotions better. Subduing emotions only makes us their slaves in the long run.
      Most of our lives now we don't have use for agression... We can still harness it but if we don't put it on a leash... It will destroy us and make us an angry and abusive asshole.
      Competitiveness is good... But flowing in it without thinking about stepping back or searching for an alternative... Is again perfect recipe for disaster. Proven time and time again.
      Society thrived when these traits are used properly rather than letting them be uncontrollable. And trust me... Most men don't have control over these basic traits.
      So yes. Toxic masculinity is real... And it harms us men as much as it harms those around us.

    Toxic masculinity is belittling others to show off masculine traits. What ppl don’t understand is those actions are traditionally masculine in nature however show a vast amount of insecurity which isn’t masculine. In reality, if someone shows off using toxic behavior against a strong advisory they crumble. People highly respect a person that doesn’t downgrade or trash others to show their own importance or value. Respect/integrity is the highest form of being perceived as masculine, you never question the masculinity of a person you respect

      @@cooljool1 I believe you and I can agree there is such a thing as toxic people. I'm sure you've seen toxic relationships whether it be IRL or televised. Toxic behavior is done in an way that is designed to make others feel belittled. I think the defined definition is a behavior done that is harmful or unpleasant l in an insidious manner. People can be toxic, however masculinity is traits people want to see in men. I very much doubt youd want young boys to be taught behave in a insidious manner. Being affronted of the idea that masculinity can not be corrupted by some isnt well thought. Toxic men beat their spouses and significant others. Are you insisting those men arent displaying toxic behavior? A true mark for masculinity is taking responsibility not only for oneself, but for others charged in that mans care.
