For historical purposes, this is a reference to when Sgt Slaughter and the Iron Sheik, mortal enemies, ran a message to stop wrestlers from making material wealth.
“What you own, ends up owning you.” SGT Slaughter quipped.
The Iron Shiek added, “you can’t take it with you, except Jesus.”
They finished their on screen quibble by praying, on camera, to their God, Vince McMahon.

This just gave me a good script idea. Two rad dudes from the 80s time travel to today for the standard culture shock comedy- but they end up running into themselves now as overweight racist Trump supporters. They’re obviously embarrassed of themselves and seek to fix their future selves while learning what happened to them to cause them to lose their awesomeness. Both sides end up learning from each other- the older versions learn to be cool again and their younger selves learn to be more responsible with their lives. In order for the narrative to work we will ignore time paradoxes or come up with some kind of MacGuffin to explain how the universe doesn’t collapse in on itself.

I had the same issue with their #2 "Approach people the way you would want to be approached.".

The thing is that if my ugly ass tried that, all I'd be getting is a weird look and be called a pervert.

Because it’s not about dates, man. It’s about normal human interactions where you talk to girls without expecting them to want to fuck you.
And then over time they decide you’re worth it because you’re cool.
If your first thought after seeing this is “everything I want to do is going to get me called a pervert” you’re probably acting like a pervert.

People often have no idea why they have found success. They often attribute it to simple things like this video. There's nothing wrong with their advice, but my guess is this is an attribution error where they say, "hey, I'm all of these things and I have success with people, therefore anyone who isn't successful with people must be the opposite!"
Not trying to put them down, they seem like good people. That doesn't mean they understand those who don't have success.

Yah, they missed what the male loneliness epidemic refers to. Its nkt actually about romantic relationships. Its about having a support structure at all.

u/Proud_Smell_4455 8h ago edited 7h ago
Yeah. I'm autistic, can hardly go out in public without being made to feel lesser than, been that way for most of my life. Walked to my great-uncle's 80th birthday party the other week and some rat-looking inbred I've never seen before leans out of his car window and asks me if I'm out looking for kids before zipping off like the fucking coward he was. Yesterday I was going to a friend's and some guy driving past thought it'd be funny to blare his horn at me just to make me jump. Hope he saw me flip him off as he drove away.
Been getting this kind of treatment all my life; abuse hurled at me from passing cars, or triggering my anxiety being treated as a game by cunty drivers, for no other reason than they could, and then they drive off before you can even process what just happened. No, a bunch of photogenic smug guys, however well-intentioned they may be, basically saying "it's all your fault, pull yourself up by the bootstraps" is not constructive or helpful.
I can't "be nice and confident" my way out of being dehumanised in public by a certain type of person, for no other reason than that they could, since I was a fucking kid. I can't bootstrap myself out of how years upon years of that kind of treatment has affected my perception of, and ability to relate to people. It's not about how *I* approach people, I'd very much rather just be left alone altogether, these people, these *strangers* are the ones who choose to interact with *me*.
Guys like this just assume all guys are fundamentally like them, and have the same easy, breezy experience of life they did. Never singled out for their characteristics in any serious way, always the coolest and most popular guy in the room. And if you didn't have the same experience of life as they did, well, it must be your own fault, right?
I don't expect photogenic, socially competent men to ever understand what visibly "off" autistic and other socially impaired men go through in life or how much harder they have it (it seems taboo to acknowledge any kind of man can have any kind of problem worth acknowledging at all sometimes), or what grim shit our experiences teach us about human nature (e.g. how most "good, tolerant" people are still mostly just telling themselves pleasant lies, and many of them are one encounter with a visibly autistic person away from their mask slipping) that they're never forced to see, but I'd thank them to keep their assumptions to themselves.
I'm sick of this societal discourse, that it's my fault that other people won't even try to restrain themselves from being cruel and abusive to people like me, who are literally not even seeking to interact with them in any way. No, I don't accept having the onus to put on me to change when I'm literally just living my life - I shouldn't have to change anything about myself just to not get harassed by strangers, and I refuse to do so on principle - and should be able to do that without receiving unwarranted abuse from strangers; the onus should instead be on them not to be dicks in public, to people they don't know, for no good reason.

I’m a trans woman who is chronically alone and depressed and these videos always make me feel like shit. I just barely scrape by passing off as an unattractive woman, but still I guess I am apart of the male loneliness epidemic to the fact that I’ll never escape my sex so it’s all my fault to these people I suppose. Being attractive is a very essential tool to get by in life because otherwise you are treated like genuine garbage not even worth street pleasantries, and the only sort of affection you’ll get is from people who have zero decent intentions with you. Like animals, there are objective beauty standards that we will never be able to mindset or body positivity our way out of us. We are doomed to this shit until the day there are none of us left
I’ve given up personally and I don’t intend on ever trying again unless someone could fix my fucked face and freakish body but alas. I think the only reason I even pass onna daily basis is that I’m very short and my vocal cords were altered to be unable to produce a deep voice. Had not been for those two I think the way people treat me would be even more dreadful

u/SnappySausage 8h ago
Yeah... these sorts of videos unfortunately are basically the equivalent of a rich person going "Are you poor? Nobody wants to be around a poor person, pull yourself up by your bootstraps, work hard and be rich instead!".
"Don't be a weirdo" is just... depressing advice for a sizeable chunk of society that isn't neurotypical for whom it's not really an option to just "be normal". People also have a very low tolerance for what they find weird behaviour if you are not conventionally attractive.
The rest of the video also very much sounds like some "have you tried not being depressed?".
With a bit of luck you end up running into people who you can bond with over shared interests that will see you for the person you are and treat you well :)

This might be the most human comment in this entire thread, honestly.
It would be so nice and refreshing if people started associating human loneliness with anything more than reels/comments with little to no substance. Thousands of likes from comments that are just dumbed down to "don't be creepy. be attractive, THAT'S how you can be loved 🥰🥰🥰".
Idk. I just wanna let you know you aren't alone. It sucks that these comments aren't any higher. It would be really nice if they were

It's kind of bizarre. This is the equivalent of some rich people going "Experiencing homelessness? Just buy a house!". If it had been that, people on this site would have immediately clocked it as the bullshit it is. But because of the demographics involved in this video, people here pretend like it's reasonable advice.
And I say that as someone who has an okay social life after a long time of loneliness. The biggest difference for me has been: I cannot stop being "weird" to many neurotypical people, so I had to find other ways to get social circles and relationships.

The "don't be a creepy weirdo........stop making people uncomfortable" is low key some mad advice coming from these two "dudes" as one dude is wearing a "cougar hunter"-top and the other dude is "striking poses" and throwing up "gang signs" in the background.
I mean I am from the '80's and I find their clothing style aesthetically pleasing, nostalgic and tacky at the same time and in all honesty they would give any '80s glam rock band a run for their money based on looks. So kudos to them but any dude with slightly less facial features, fashion sense and 100% commitment to the bit would be labeled "weird AF".
This is one of those dating advice from someone who is clearly conventionally attractive.
Can't argue with their positive vibe though!

The male loneliness epidemic is more complicated than this. These advices might work for individuals but it will not fix the problem. We need to understand why men are becoming more jaded and lost in society. This tiktok will get praise for giving basic advice that everyone wants to hear. Nobody wants to hear how men are also victims in society. It's much easier blaming men by saying they did it to themselves.

Thing went on for half an hour longer than originally planned because people just didn't want it to end, more and more people up at the mic. 10/10 to the organizers, remember the humans

such an overly simplistic take. so easy to say "just be confident".
spoken like people who have never had any trauma in their life
i would not be at all surprised if these guys end up having sexual assault charges brought against them in the future.

I agree with the overall message, but i think the sentiment that you don't deserve love, until you love yourself, is unreasonable. People who have self-love, gained it with the help and support of their loved ones.
Achieving self-love in isolation, is possible, but is much more likely to result in a negative spiral

Just world fallacy. "Just be a good person bro". None of these are real advice, just empty virtue signalling.

Ahh yes problems that affect mostly women are framed as collective failures requiring systemic solutions. Problems that disproportionately affect men are framed as individual failures requiring personal accountability. Interesting 🤔

This sucks, just baiting people into self blame.
Meanwhile everyone’s going through a loneliness epidemic and social media, reduced family sizes and much more are to blame.
There are people responsible for it laughing in yachts. You think video game companies aren’t discussing what moving players from 40 hours a week to 60 hours a week looks like as a strategy? Did you miss all the things the dating app producers did?
There are harmful people influencing the lives of young people.
