Hefner and his ilk are to the modern degenerates what the old German nobility was to the Nazis, both an evolution of and a contrast. Though I wouldn’t say Hefner was himself a direct cause to profligates like Epstein or Trump, he was just the last notable example of a more or less dead breed. I think I’ve seen the term paternalistic misogyny thrown around in reference to Hefner and his ilk, wherein the focus wasn’t necessarily on hating women but moreso on securing or representing a paternalistic image.
Also I’m like 80 percent sure that modern misogynists legit hate women and aren’t just demeaning and abusive ass wipes to them.
Reminder Hefner reported Epstein to the FBI years before most others clocked him. He was a misogynistic lecher but he was one with standards.
It’s a weird world when Hefner has more standards than pretty much all of the US political elite
