Was Tomi Lahren Right or Wrong in Her ‘Men Are Trash’ Rant?

I am not a fan of Tomi Lahren for two reasons. First of all, I know people that worked with her at the Blaze and they told me she was a difficult to get along with diva that nobody liked.

More importantly, she’s part of a trend on the Right that I don’t like. The previous generation of top-notch female pundits and commentators, people like Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, and Dana Loesch achieved their success in part because they’re very attractive. However, whether you like them or not, they’re also very smart. Coulter is brilliant, funny, and makes terrific points. Malkin is a great researcher who has never been afraid to make controversial arguments. Dana Loesch has an encyclopedic knowledge of guns and the legal issues that surround them.

What do Tomi Lahren and for that matter, most of the new generation of younger, female pundits and commentators have? They’re pretty and they have a knack for being outrageous. That’s just about all they bring to the table. If someone like Tomi Lahren were a guy and had to get by on her intellect and abilities, she’d be persona non grata because she brings almost nothing to the table on that front. Incidentally, with a few exceptions (See Kat Timpf and 1 or 2 others), that same description applies to most of the bigger name female conservative pundits and commentators under 35 and it’s another step towards turning America into an Idiocracy, not an improvement.

So, why is Tomi Lahren coming up? Well, she did a video on Facebook called, “PSA for Boyish Men.” Tomi Lahren was trending on Twitter because, in that video, she said that most men “are trash.” Of course, you’d guess from the title that the larger point was supposed to be that men today weren’t as masculine as previous generations, which is something I agree with and believe is a problem. With that in mind, I thought it was worth watching the whole video to see what Tomi Lahren actually said in the controversial video. Would I actually end up agreeing with Tomi Lahren? Let’s watch the video and see (I really did write the opening before I watched the video.)
