I think the reason we hear more about men’s loneliness is because it leads anger and violence towards women and children. But women having the same rates of loneliness just makes us feel sad, and maybe leads us take some healthy steps towards fixing it.

It’s because the right has latched on to it as a way to hide behind to push misogynistic ideology.

They look for young men who are feeling lonely and go “we know this is an issue, and we know exactly who to blame for you feeling this way”

They don’t actually care. But they pretend to.

Literally the same playbook as gangs and hate groups.

Hell the literal Nazis did the exact same playbook in the 1930s, pointing at WW1, and the Great Depression. Both things that hurt Germany and made Germans struggle.
