Okay, so reading the whole thing and trying to figure out what he's really trying to say through all that rambling.
First he's talking about how monogamy and polyamory are 2 different systems for reproduction, which, yeah technically true. I think he means the "one woman per man" in a sense of, that's how monogamy is structured, not literally "we are going to make the government gather the women and distribute the women evenly", though I still don't know what fucking point the weirdo's trying to make.
Then he talks about "strong" men trying to get the women back. At this point I (naively) considered the possibility that he was actually going to make a critique about the "alpha male" bs, since that's how they commonly think.
But then he starts talking about how they do that is by telling the women they can be self-sufficient??? And that what women really need is a man to protect them?? Even if we did go with the simplistic reasoning he was basing this off of, that might makes right, the strong men could clearly just beat the shit out of the weak men and take their women. What fucking nonsense are you smoking to think that the strongest guy in the room would need to play those mind games??
My guy has clearly never genuinely looked at the relationship between an abuser and his victim, or looked at the fucking Taliban that operates on this same shitty logic and see how very much worse off those women are.
So in conclusion, while he seemed to start off saying that monogamy > polyamory purly as a genetic device, monogamy is actually bad because then the "strong men" with try to steal the women by checks notes empowering them??
Fuckin weirdo.
