    Am I misunderstanding you, or are you saying it requires billions of dollars to come up with effective messaging/marketing for the left, aimed at young boys and men?

    Like… I hear you that the funding gap is a huge and fundamental problem, but I frankly don’t think its difficult at all to message leftist points to younger guys.

    Give them a set of principles to hold themselves to, and explain to them why these are good principles.

    ‘A good man helps out his community to the greatest extent he can, a good man doesn’t hate others for no good reason, a good man is responsible enough to learn how to question what he is told so that he can discern the character and intent of others, a good man approaches the unknown and the strange not with fear, but with a measured yet hopeful curiosity’

    Reject toxic masculinity but don’t just leave an empty void where it was, instead, actually replace it with an actually healthy and affirming masculinity.
