From #WhiskeyLeaks via @SonsOfLibertyOfficial: “Texas, testosterone politics, and the fake masculinity of men who confuse lunch with leadership.”
A few quotes:
Barbecue is not a governing program. Testosterone is not a character reference. And calling another man weak because you think he eats the wrong food is not masculinity. It is schoolyard politics with a bigger donor list.
…
If your best argument against a man is what you imagine he had for lunch, you do not have an argument. You have a lunch fixation.

The fake-alpha crowd loves to talk about strength, but it keeps defining strength downward until it fits inside a bumper sticker. Eat meat. Talk loud. Insult women. Mock compassion. Worship dominance. Never apologize. Never reflect. Never admit fault. Never take responsibility unless the responsibility can be subcontracted to a staffer, lawyer, wife, intern, or enemy.
That is not strength. That is emotional credit card debt.
Real strength is steadier than that. It can handle disagreement without needing a nickname. It can take rejection without turning into a sewer pipe. It can lose an argument without inventing a conspiracy. It can stand next to women without treating them as props, prizes, servants, threats, or proof of masculine worth.
