It takes a rare individual indeed willing to cooperate and be self-sacrificial on the level that something like the CoAlpha Brotherhood requires to get rolling.
I, too, have been frustrated for a long time with the MRA/MGTOW/MRM culture and their lack of initiative. Indeed, they are beginning to mirror the feminist culture they've come so much to hate - increasingly closed-minded echo chambers steadily more intolerant of any constructive criticism.
When it comes to getting something done, I think we would need a specific plan with some sort of end goal, belief in that plan from all members contributing towards it, and direct action towards that plan from all members contributing towards it. So far as I can tell we don't have much of any of these things - we have a mission statement, but that's not really a plan. We've tossed out a few tentative ideas (dating service, group for boys) but haven't developed them too much.
This could be because we are waiting for membership to grow so we can identify people who can contribute. But I think that even with 3 solid and committed men, we could start something.
