Salaam Amr,
I'm not an MGTOW but I have recently stumbled onto your channel and find it very smart and entertaining. As I kept watching, I discovered that you are well-versed in religious matters, and was happy to learn that, like me, you also have a keen interest in akhir az-zamaan (Islamic eschatology / "End of the age"). I really applaud you for addressing your audience as an Abrahamic family, showing the blood relation of the three faiths, while still leaving the door open to the secular and atheists among your followers. You are making good da'wa (calling the people to God), mashallah. I'm also quite amazed by the positive feedback from non-Muslim commenters regarding your injection of the religious angle here and there, showing them what time it is! It seems they are starting to see that what they once thought was politically incorrect and oppressive Islam, is in fact distilled divine wisdom for the ages.
I understand the reaction that men are having to toxic feminism these days, and I think the trick/challenge for you is to correctly point out innate female weaknesses while still upholding their dignity Islamically. I admit I have to laugh at your description of Hojabis... and the word. You seem to have a natural gift for reading between the lines, judging character and picking up on large social and cultural currents. I just struggle sometimes with where a Muslim in MGTOW would draw the line between brotherly/fatherly admonition of women, and breeding contempt for them, which is inspired by Shaytan and Dajjal, the latter of whom's mission is to permanently sever the male-female bond.
In this regard, I wonder whether the MGTOW movement--starting with the name itself--is falling into Dajjal's trap, by emphasizing the separate paths of men and women, and the implicit suggestion of "abandoning" women, if you will, even though many would agree that they are virtually begging for abandonment at this stage. Like I said, I totally get the thrust of this male blowback to a world of women gone mad, but I will leave it to you to come to the appropriate balance as you navigate your emerging leadership role in the MGTOW camp (I predict you will gain a large following inshallah--you have a broad intellect, a knack for words, and you got jokes bruv, haha... mashallah). I don't envy you this difficult balancing act of admonition and reconciliation though, but if you pull it off, you will have done a great service to Allah and mankind. You have a lot of responsibility, and you will make mistakes, but that is OK if your intention stays the course and remains pure.
The prophet, peace be upon him, placed special emphasis during his last sermon, on the need to really, really care for our women. Part of their current "madness" stems from their sense of lost security, resulting from the social engineering imposed on men to be lustful and immature. Dajjal has engineered both genders and the mutual corruption feeds off each other.
The prophet clearly foresaw and sought to avert the disaster in gender relations that is unfolding. In fact, he did state that the last group of people that Dajjal would tempt and mislead would be women, i.e., the modern Western feminist revolution which has now reached our Muslim world as well. You may be aware of his hadith saying that men would have to restrain their women--daughters, sisters, wives, mothers--from following the tune of Dajjal. His point, I believe, is that most men would see through Dajjal's deception of women, and would have to be stern with their women to avoid Dajjal's modernity and his empty promise for their own good, but that most women would be almost totally blinded by his seduction of a feminist utopia. Of course he also said that male and female roles would be reversed at this time. When Dajjal appears in person, the inversion will hit an extreme.
If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to offer a couple of suggestions regarding 2 topics that you've mentioned in several videos.
The first regards Eve (Hawa). The Judeo-Christian narrative blames her for tempting Adam but the Quran actually states that both were tempted and both committed the crime. When they both turned to repent, Allah forgave them both, but still sent them down to earth "for a time". The Quran does not indicate that God put curses on them, as it states in the Bible. So, Islam actually exonerates women from this blame and I think this distinction from the previous book should be made clear, especially for the benefit of women who may subconsciously hold a grudge against the religions for this blame, the heavy guilt of "original sin" with which they are burdened. It will also not pollute men's understanding of women excessively, although yes, women do have some inherent spiritual frailties and are easier targets for the deceiving jinn (demons).
The second regards the punishment for adultery. I have to google to confirm but I believe the punishment in the Torah is stoning to death, but in Islam it is a public flogging (with a sheet or cloth--it is a symbolic lashing, and not brutal, but public in order to exert social pressure to reform the person). This distinction is also important for the benefit of our Abrahamic siblings, that Islam has eased some of the Torah punishments with more humane punishment. It should also be stated that the punishment is equal for men and women, and that women are not singled out unfairly. I believe the inherent justice of Islam, and the unchanged character of the Quran will shine through if you make these distinctions.
Peace brother, and good luck with your channel and your efforts. You are an intelligent man, humorous, with a lot of potential. May Allah guide you, and the MGTOW movement, to a healthy reconciliation with God-fearing women. Amin.
Peace to all prophets mentioned above.

P.S. You should check out Sheikh Imran Hosein for akhir az-zamaan, if you haven't already. He ties it all together brilliantly. Peace.
