Skinny jeans, crossing your legs, using an iron, shaping your eyebrows, and even eating soup are among the things he derides as too feminine.

DUDE!
If your super-manly-manliness is fucking threatened by... eating soup... you're not manly at all, you're just fucking pathetic, weak-sauce and insecure.
It's like trying to be "cool" by telling people how cool you are, you defacto are not.

My grandad ate soup every fucking meal after he came back from slapping nazis halfway accross the world, running uphill into fucking machine guns and he was more manlier than these shit-stain-producing-troglodytes.

On the certain road down to incel-ism.

Actual title as I see it on the article:

Young US men are joining Russian churches promising 'absurd levels of manliness'

Some notable initial content:

Skinny jeans, crossing your legs, using an iron, shaping your eyebrows, and even eating soup are among the things he derides as too feminine.

There are other videos of Father Moses McPherson - a powerfully-built father of five - weightlifting to the sound of heavy metal.

He was raised a Protestant and once worked as a roofer, but now serves as a priest in the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia (ROCOR) in Georgetown, Texas, an offshoot of the mother church in Moscow.

The disservice this manly man is doing to society is regrettable, because invariably, women are going to get hurt as a result of this traditionalist backwards thinking.

I wonder what this guy has on his criminal record.

Nothing less masculine than getting on your knees and begging to a fictional daddy.

is this Russia's new ploy to get US spies?

Ya know Im quite traditionally masculine by my kins standards and frankly speaking I find these "I'm super masculine take me seriously" types to be rather amusing if not pathetic. Mind you my kin and I come from a cousin stock of Old John Brown meaning that traditional masculine activities consists of scalping slavers, burning Mormons alive, and making Southern Trash know their place.

How modernity has stripped many of us of our traditions, I must thank these weaklings for volunteering to help bring my ancestors traditions back. After all it won't be the same, but these pissants will make fine targets regardless since they are close enough.

I blame reddit for removing atheism from the front page a 12 years ago

All religions are only about control. This one is no different, just that the control likely comes from somewhere in Russia, but it's control nonetheless

It's okay, there is no god, it's okay.

Sounds like how to make men weaker. Wow. This is sad. Just a list of unnecessary things to be a snowflake about.

Note: to flush ouf these proud boys is to offer soup and watch them melt into a puddle of pathetic loserishness

There's a huge shift in male role models over the past few decades, and it always felt to me like the people who could never fit into the old militaristic, athletic "conqueror"-style mould saying "we'll invent our own definition of masculinity" than a direct, fully-bought-in progression.

This will leave people behind-- the ones who can't find new "appropriate" idols or aren't impressed by their achievements. The Linus Torvalds version of conquering the world is hardly the Genghis Khan version.

Maybe we need to find a way to broaden the modern pantheon to figures that can resonate with a traditional audience.

when will they become jihadis

Not believing in stuff on insufficient evidence is pretty damn masculine.

How do you say: "I KICK ASS FOR THE LORRD!" in Russian?

After you are baptized do you get enrolled in the army and send to the frontline in Ukraine?

Won't be long before they start their own American Dreams Party, as MAGA would not be enough.
