@thatstench5242 exactly..."women are being slaughtered in Ukraine!"...why care? What are they doing for me? Nothing.
So why care, why take hundreds of billions from my empty pockets for them? That's most men today, our issues are not cared about, so why care yourself? We don't.
In fact many are cheering the collapse because it would be an improvement to them. Being a without rule of law warlord in a collapse would be a step up for them, would be more agency and freedom than they've ever had.
War works for this because you send those men out to kill other men, and they do, and carry that experience back into society, so when your Amazon package is 7 minutes late, they see it for what it is, a miniscule inconvenience, rather than a slight that ruins her day.

There's merit to the SCOTUS idea of incentivizing pedo murder like stated.
We had this issue with the drug war. Before, getting caught dealing drugs was no big deal, 5-10 years, no reason to murder anyone...but they changed it to mandatory life in prison, suddenly you had incentive to leave no witnesses, since drug dealing was the same penalty as murder, why not just murder anyone who gets in your way, and murder EXPLODED in that era, hundreds of times increases, because WHY NOT? This guy could snitch on me for selling to him, and the penalty is the same as if I kill him so he won't talk, SOLD, bang.

"therefore the child carrying the fathers name is the man stepping forward to take responsibility in front of the community."
When I was adopted, that's literally the point of that. I was adopted at birth, so the man who raised me because my biological father couldn't legally gave me his name, and I'm proud to carry it. Later in life, it's just one more thing that alienates me further from my half-siblings my bio dad had later in life and COULD care for, who took HIS name. But he actually did raise them, so they also deserve to carry his name. Those names used to actually carry the father's name so it was quite obvious, like I'd be Robert Johnson, Robert, the Son of John. It also makes sense in Game of Thrones, having a 'placeholder' surname for bastards, like Snow in the North or Sand in the East.
Calling me a bastard is about the only insult that'll get anger from me, because it's the only true one lol.

As I frame it, you can only have power over people you WANT NOTHING FROM. If you don't want anything from anyone, no one can manipulate or coerce you. You can't be corrupted, bribed, seduced. You can't con an honest man, they used to say. It's like not wanting your job, now your boss has no power over you as he has nothing to threaten you with, fire me, do it, and nothing to offer you, a raise? overtime? promotion? I don't want to be here at all, that's not an offer.
The less you WANT the more power you HAVE, because the more people you get to tell NO. The more people you tell no, the more yes people you'll attract.
