Episode 12:Toxic masculinity is a term we hear bandied about a lot these days, since the birth of the me-too movement. There appears to be a lot of definitions for what toxic masculinity is. It seems to be something very serious in today’s culture. So how should Catholics view and react to toxic masculinity? As you know, I’m not one who likes political correctness, and this episode is no exception. So hold on to your hats, because Hurricane Joe is in full battle mode and I’m getting ready to open a 55 gallon drum of whoop-ass.The Cantankerous Catholic Social Media GroupJoin our group where subscribers of The Cantankerous Catholic can meet to discuss the issues talked about in episodes, get opinions from other like minded people, or simply discuss anything effecting Catholics.Don’t like or trust Facebook? No problem!Joe Sixpack—The Every Catholic Guy doesn’t trust Facebook either. There have been too many instances of censorship on Facebook. If you promote abortion, LGBT issues, or anything anti-patriotic, you’re pretty much guaranteed to be unmolested by Facebook. But if you promote life, decency or morality, Facebook is subject to censor your posts, take down your page, or otherwise use some underhanded method to censor you.TrumpTown.comWe’ve found an alternative to Facebook. It’s a new social media site called TrumpTown.com. Whether you like President Trump or not, this is the one social media that doesn’t censor you for upholding Catholic values and morals. You’re completely free to discuss and promote anything you want, just as long as it isn’t immoral, indecent, or anti-American. Joe Sixpack—The Every Catholic Guy has been critical of President Trump on a number of issues, as is the right of all Americans. TrumpTown.com has never molested him in any way, and they guarantee they won’t. The site otherwise works identically to Facebook. That is the reason Joe Sixpack—The Every Catholic Guy chose to host The Cantankerous Catholic Social Media Group there. We have the added benefit and protection of being a private group. So join the group now to meet other like minded Catholics.Not a Catholic? We’d still love to have you join us. You’ll find that we’re a very welcoming people.
