Dad Mode In Dark Mode is a raw, unfiltered channel about fatherhood, philosophy, masculinity, and waking up in a world that feels rigged.

Too many men are told they’re “weak” or “wasting their lives” if they play video games. The manosphere and hustle culture bros love to shame men for gaming instead of “grinding” or building businesses. But real men can handle their responsibilities, take care of their families, and still enjoy downtime with games like Fortnite or Nintendo. Playing video games with your son or on your own doesn’t make you a failure—it makes you human.

In this video I break down the toxic messages men hear online, why hustle culture is often hypocritical, and how fatherhood and gaming can actually strengthen bonds instead of destroying them. If you’re tired of being told you’re not enough, this one’s for you.
