Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri, a Republican, spoke out against the war on men at the National Conservatism Conference yesterday. He raised the alarm about declining marriage rates and college enrollment in a lengthy and rambling lecture, arguing that more and more men are falling out of labor and retreating into porn and video games. This isn’t the first time politicians have sought to incite moral panic over Pornhub and Fortnite; it’s also not the first time they’ve blamed them for the middle class’s decline. In his 2017 book, The Vanishing American Adult, Senator Ben Sasse, a Republican from Nebraska, blamed video games for fewer males working low-wage jobs.
