Brain Rot Doctor ​⁠@HealthyGamerGG Believes Young Men Are Going Extinct 😨 #podcast #doctor #men

July 11, 202501:32
00:00:00
There is a whole generation of men that
00:00:03
is like we are literally watching them
00:00:05
die out in real time. We've got 32 year
00:00:09
olds, 35year-olds who do not have
00:00:11
children, do not know how they're going
00:00:12
to ever have children. Some people like
00:00:14
just put yourself out there, just work
00:00:16
out, work on yourself, and things will
00:00:18
work out. But they have something in
00:00:20
their makeup, something in their
00:00:22
attachment style, something in in their
00:00:24
their tendency for social anxiety that
00:00:27
allows them to put forth effort and
00:00:30
succeed. And then there are these other
00:00:32
people over here who will go to therapy,
00:00:35
who will work on themselves
00:00:37
professionally,
00:00:38
who will show up on dating apps and
00:00:42
because of the shape of their face which
00:00:45
cannot be fundamentally altered or some
00:00:47
other thing which they're not even aware
00:00:49
of. There's this whole crop of people
00:00:51
who I think are trying really hard. I
00:00:53
don't think they're losers. I don't
00:00:55
think they're like pathetic or anything
00:00:56
like that. I think there's something
00:00:58
about the architecture of how these
00:01:00
people are built so that standard advice
00:01:03
does not apply to them. I almost wonder
00:01:07
is there a mechanism in a human being
00:01:11
that if your genes know they're dying
00:01:13
out, what would they trigger in your
00:01:16
mind?
00:01:17
Right? And I think what they would
00:01:19
trigger is exactly what we're seeing.
00:01:21
this like existential panic, angst, even
00:01:24
aggression, entitlement. Because if
00:01:27
these men do not behave in this way,
00:01:29
they are literally going to die
