Is Scott Galloway Controlled Opposition for the Manosphere?

This video makes a good argument for it:
LINK
Oprah Winfrey recently had a podcast with Scott Galloway on why men are leaving the dating scene. As someone who has become invested in men's rights, a lot of what Scott says is right on the money.
With that said, Scott always stops short of truly ever criticizing women. Look at the video, while Scott sympathizes with men and gives good advise, he still puts all the pressure on men.
It's still men who have to "step up". It's still men who have to "make more". It's still men who need to learn how to "communicate better". Never once does he ever call out women for what they have done, on behalf of the cult of feminism, to dating and relationships between men and women.
Tell me what you think, but I think people like Scott unintentionally make it harder for men to change the system. People like Scott are truly in the system, they are truly IMO controlled opposition.

I don't think he is controlled opposition.
He's just an oddity on the left end of the spectrum

Galloway is one of the figs that has convinced millennials their economic prospects were stolen from them by boomers. He's a liberal dipshit.

What the frick is the "manosphere"?

He’s a Progressive. I’ve never viewed him as controlled opposition- just a super wealthy guy who has acceptance with all the Correct Thinking cultural elites. He’s the guy at the cocktail party who explains why the deplorables are struggling in a way that makes them ooh and awww . He’s very good at diagnosing and explaining the problem though and I’m glad he’s brought it to his left of center audience . He hasn’t been able to connect the dots on how male feminization in the age of the Woman’s Supremacy Movement is a Progressive failure.

what would you like the system changed to? and let me know when you actually touch a real woman's breast, and your sister doesn't count!

I agree with your synopsis in that Scott is saying a lot of true things about the issues that men are going through but he never says women must take accountability for their actions. He seems to give them a free pass at their transgressions.
You can NEVER fully trust a straight White male who went to a poll & pressed a voting lever for Kamala Harris & was part of a group called White Dudes for Harris. Ever.

I would like to see true equality. To give you just a few examples of that:
- 50/50 first dates until the relationship is established. Women make money now, it shouldn't be the man's responsibility to pay for everything on a date. That whole concepts comes from a time when women didn't work and had no money, so if the man didn't pay, there was no date.
- Fair Divorce and Child Custody Laws - We all know how badly divorce and family courts are against men. I don't think I need to say much more here.
- Truly recognizing that boys are falling behind at school. Acknowledge that if the situation was in reverse (girls falling behind), it would be considered a national emergency. Stop medicating young boys for acting like boys. Separate and make all girl and all boy classrooms if needed, but tailor school to how boys learn best. Stop trying to force boys to learn like girls do.
- Military Draft - I know it's unlikely to ever happen again, but it's the principle. Women want equality, that means taking the bad with the good, not cherry picking when they want equality and when they want tradition. Women should have to be registered for the military draft at 18 just like Men.
- Stop Demonizing Men - Stop blaming every society problem on "the patriarchy" or "toxic masculinity". We've easily had 3 generations (Millennials, especially Younger Millenials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha) of Men who have been told their entire lives that their gender, their very existence, is the problem. And we wonder why men are more lonely, stay isolated and are far more likely to end their lives.
And these are just a few examples to start.
And the answer your last question, I touched and squeezed a real woman's breast just 2 weeks ago. Yes, she was a stripper, and yes, it was during a lap dance that I paid for. But heck, at least it's an honest transaction. I understand that at my age the only way I'm touching a woman's breast again is by paying for it. So be it I guess.

Well that's not something you can really change politically. If it's that important to you then you should probably be clear about it before the date.

Seems like this is the fault of the boys not taking their studies seriously. I don't see a need to intervene here.

Sounds like you might need more confidence. Sorry you feel that way

Exactly. He always stops just short of making women take any accountability, and I would argue women are the ones who have screwed up modern dating far more than men. Both sides have done things to not make the situation better, but women IMO share more of the burden.
And did you notice, in the interview with Oprah, the "men" in the audience? I doubt there was a straight man in the crowd outside of Scott. So Oprah gets to take credit for "trying to care about men" when the whole thing was truly artificial.

Wrong. Our public education system is completely oriented to how girls learn and all they want to do with the boys is medicate them or kick them out. It's been proven in many ways that boys learn very differently than girls. So when you set it up for how girls learn, we shouldn't be surprised that girls then move ahead.
Look at all boys private schools (religious or secular). Those boys for the most part can easily compete with the girls and do just fine. And that's because the learning is geared towards how boys learn. Unfortunately, most parents can't afford to have their boys attend a $15,000-$25,000/yr. private school.

I do and I've lost dates over it before. But yes when I was dating I was clear with any woman that it's dutch and she's paying her half. But it needs to become the expectation in our society.
I would also like to see women be expected to approach more as well. If women do and get rejected like men commonly do, they might start to understand how much of a risk it is and to be more respectful of the men who do take that risk and approach them. It's the height of female privilege to just sit back and wait for the guys to take the risk and come to you.

I don't think it's confidence as much as I no longer really care. Even if there was a woman out there for me, I don't think it's worth the pain of going through the current dating scene. At least with strippers it's an honest transaction. I might even look at one of those AI girlfriend dolls when they get more realistic.
I'm also just tired of women expecting men to bring more to the table, when those same women themselves are bringing less to the table than ever before.

Maybe you're pursuing the wrong type of woman
I've made that mistake before so I can certainly understand how you feel. Not sure what age range you're looking for but there are still decent normal women in most age ranges. Finding them might not be easy but it's doable.

I can agree with your list. Other than the draft one. We don't need females in the military, other than some basic administrative purposes.

I'm a firm believer that the best thing to do would be to have a unisex school with sex specific classes. Have them mingle with each other in the halls, lunchtime, etc, but in the core classes keep them separate.

My thoughts as well. I went to Rummel, and it was a great education, but being in an all-boys Catholic high school definitely stunted my ability to interact with women well into my college years. I really didn't know how to interact with women. I think boys and girls need to interact with each other in school, but I agree with your thought process. Sex specific core classes to tailor the learning structure, while still having them mingle in between classes, lunchtime, extracurricular activities and maybe some elective classes.

My preference would be just do away with the draft completely. But again, if we ever do a draft again, women should not be exempt. Equality means the good and bad, not just cherry picking when women want to be equal and when they want "tradition".
I would say you could do all female units and have them do less dangerous missions, but they shouldn't be exempt. But again, it's more the principle than anything else.

Should we give young men a pass for being passive in the face of it all. Why can't I blame young men for sitting at home playing Call of Duty instead of hitting the bar scene and chasing tail?
Men need to learn how to be appropriately aggressive...and bitching about things and playing video games just make you look pathetic.

So in your eyes women have done nothing to cause the disaster that is the current dating scene? Are you going to put them on a pedestal since in your eyes they can't do any wrong?
Have you seen the bar scene lately? It's either dead or if it is a lively scene, the women are there in groups of 10 - 15, making it next to impossible to actually approach a woman. And I guarantee you, in all of those groups, there is a woman who is going to keep men out.
And then, if somehow you do approach a woman, you absolutely run the risk of being thrown out of the bar or part of a TikTok or YouTube video making fun of you and destroying you (especially if you live in a smaller town). I would argue the current dating scene is all risk/no reward for men.
Women now want Men who are at least 6 feet, even if they're only 5'2" or 5'3" themselves. Women now only want Men who make six figures and have investments and properties. And what do many of these same women bring? Student Loans, Credit Card debt, a kid and a small income from a dead end job. Where are the realistic expectations?
You are coming off as no different than Scott. Blaming men for everything and not holding women accountable at all. I'm not saying you can't criticize men. Yes you can criticize men for not taking care of themselves and choosing to play Call of Duty instead of going out on a Saturday night. But I am tired of seeing women be absolved of any responsibility. It takes two to tango.
