Many good points here. I find it really strange that a so called psychologist wants to teach people that their problems all stem from others - most of whom have historically been disenfranchised. Rather than teaching young men to truly look inside themselves and to grapple with their feelings around changing expectations, he tells them it's all the fault of SJWs, feminists, vegans, and Marxists. He teaches them to externalize their fears and blame someone else.

And as you've pointed out, humans are incredibly social beings. Our psychology is embedded in our connection to and relationship with each other. There is practically no individual without the culture particularly since most of our "thoughts" are things buried deep in our subconscious that come from cultural and childhood indoctrination, stereotypes, media, and other places not part of "rational cognition" - the rational man being a long discredited 19th century idea.

I particularly love the "more mobster than lobster line."
