Reprehensibly stupid

MGTOW are not only cowards and liars, they are reprehensibly stupid, as one Hop Light demonstrates on YouTube in response to my Darkstream entitled Men Going Evil’s Way:

Absurd stream.

“Is the legal system stacked against men? Yes.”
“Are there really bad outcomes? Well, yes.”

But…uh statistics are just statistics.

Vox, you’re smarter than this. It is only a true gamma fool of a man who gets married in this day and age. Completely suicidal in some states. It’s not fear, it survival and adaptation. It’s what men do.

I’m certainly considerably smarter than he is. My point was that the statistics are not applicable. What MGTOW do is attempt to apply GENERAL statistics derived from a population of millions to their own individual situation despite the fact that such statistics are totally meaningless when applied to ONE SPECIFIC individual.

What they’re doing is analogous to deciding one can afford to buy a $2 million house with a 7.84 percent mortgage interest rate because the average US housing price is $279,500 and the average mortgage interest rate is 4.39 percent.


Sounds like a good start

But we’ll see whether there is any follow-through on the words or not, or if it’s just more bluster:

President Donald Trump said on Monday that U.S. authorities would begin next week removing millions of immigrants who are in the United States illegally.

“Next week ICE will begin the process of removing the millions of illegal aliens who have illicitly found their way into the United States,” Trump tweeted, referring to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. “They will be removed as fast as they come in,” he said. He did not offer specifics.

There are an estimated 12 million immigrants who are in the United States illegally, mainly from Mexico and Central America.

The real problem, of course, is with legal immigration. Because the fundamental problem involves quantity, not quality, much less legality.


Ben Shapiro is an intellectual drag queen

I’ll be going on with Alex Jones very soon, presumably to discuss Iran. But we’ll see… we always seem to end up off on a tangent that I didn’t see coming.

UPDATE: Yeah, we really didn’t discuss Iran. And I did NOT see those particular tangents coming.


Gammas destroy everything

Even a Navy SEAL team:

Andrea said it all began when her husband was tapped to lead the worst-performing SEAL Team platoon into the final battle to finish off the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria in Mosul, Iraq, in 2017. It would be his eighth combat deployment and his second time to Mosul. During the workup to the deployment, Eddie turned it into the No. 1 platoon, she said. However, on the deployment beginning February 2017, things quickly soured between Eddie, who was the platoon chief, and his much-younger subordinate SEALs in their mid-20s.

Some of the platoon members started to complain constantly about the battle rhythm, she said. Eddie scolded them, saying, ‘You guys are not performing…on the SEAL teams, this is how we do it.” He told them to their faces, “You guys are performing like cowards and pussies,” she said.

Her husband pulled those who were not performing “off target,” she said. He started to send a group back to rest, and leave a group on target, alternating a week on and a week off. Meanwhile, Eddie, and the officer-in-charge Navy SEAL Lt. Jacob “Jake” Portier, and the assistant officer-in-charge Navy SEAL Lt. Tom MacNeil were the only people who stayed on target, she said.

Andrea said since her husband stayed on target the entire deployment, back at the rest house a “revolt” started. “They would all just b-tch and moan and piss…like high school girls,” she said. She said the initial campaign was started by four people, including some who had never been in combat before and were not handling the battle rhythm. She said Eddie told them, “What we’re doing is not anything over and above what the call of duty is. This is standard operating procedure.”

She said at that time, both Portier and MacNeil took Eddie’s side and were reprimanding the platoon members for lack of performance.

“It’s just very weird juxtaposition of this warrior community that’s been infiltrated by these weaker minded individuals that can’t be told what to do, they don’t respect authority, in fact they usurp authority and they don’t think that they’re accountable to anyone or anything,” she said.

If you ever wonder why I am absolutely ruthless about purging gammas from my projects and dev teams, to the point that I don’t even mind if a few innocent deltas or omegas get swept out with the cancer, this story of a gamma infestation gone septic should help explain why. It doesn’t matter how talented the gamma is, it doesn’t matter what level of fractalization he is on, sooner or later he is going to meltdown over something and devote himself to destroying the organization and its alpha.

This is so perfectly typical of gamma behavior it is to the point of being exemplary: the accusers decided they wanted three things. “They decided that what they wanted — the end goal was three things, they wanted my husband off of TRADET, they wanted my husband stripped of his silver star that they had put him in for. They also wanted him not to pick up E-8,” she said.

For the gamma, the point is always about harm caused to the hated alpha whether it does them any good or not. They are intrinsically focused on the negative, which is why you can never count on their own positive interests restraining them in the slightest.


The old rules don’t apply

Yet another reason to ignore Boomer advice, particularly as it regards the housing market:

Recently, however, we’ve lost the plot on the classic life arc of yesteryear. Places where real estate is cheap don’t have many good jobs. Places with lots of jobs, primarily coastal cities, have seen their real-estate markets go absolutely haywire. The most recent evidence of this remarkable change comes in a new report by the real-estate firm Unison. The company, which provides financing to homebuyers by “co-investing” with them, calculated how long it would take to save up a 20 percent down payment on the median home in a given city by squirreling away 5 percent of the city’s gross median income per year.

Nationally, the gap between income and home value has been rising. Using Unison’s methodology, it took nine years to save up a down payment in 1975. Now it takes 14.

But the aggregate numbers make the decrease in access to the real-estate market seem gradual, albeit troubling, and underplay the spikiness of the country. In Los Angeles, it would take 43 years to save up for a down payment. In San Francisco, 40. In San Jose and San Diego, 31. In Seattle and Portland, 27 and 23, respectively. In the east, New York and Miami topped the list, requiring 36 years to save up that down payment. Only Detroit, at seven years, was under the national average from 1975.

For young people in high-opportunity metro areas, the route to home ownership is basically blocked without the help of a wealthy family member or some stock options. Meanwhile, older people who bought under much more favorable circumstances have seen their equity stakes grow and grow and grow.

It’s really astonishing to review how many markets are fundamentally broken. I finally understand why some consider my 2033 timeframe to be optimistic. From my Gen-X perspective, the housing market was fairly reasonable until about 1997. That’s when everything took off like a rocket and essentially locked first-time buyers out.


The purpose of a man

Last night’s Darkstream about the purpose of a man has stirred up considerable commentary on YouTube as well as in my inbox. What is perhaps most interesting is the rival responses from two omegas – or if you prefer, Men Going Their Own Way – concerning my statements about the importance of establishing a marriage and a family.

Omega Failure checking in here. Watched many men destroyed. Got too smart for that game. Seemed like the only way to win was not to play. Almost 50. Living alone. Waiting to die basically. Didn’t even get fancy pants. Vox is right. 100 percent. Carry on.

C3 writes:

I have children.  I have an ex-wife.  I love and miss my children very much and I would never want any man to go through the pain I did.  It wasn’t pain with accomplishment like what you get with fighting in the ring or surviving combat, its an empty shell like surviving a crippling car accident injury or prison rape.  There’s no glory in it.  Those who’ve never been divorced constantly minimize just what it is you go through and its rather like listening to someone who plays a lot of video games telling you that combat, isn’t that bad because his game has good graphics and sound so he understands.  No.  Our host has said things in the past like “Well if you’re afraid of losing 20{f33784e39f95a4a537f95eb029d837fe676a3542b2380ed2d704b841b03a8c5e} of your stuff you’re just a coward…” etc. etc.  Such a statement is obviously rhetorical and I take it as such.  He wants married families and rhetoric is a way to do this.  Okay.  However loss of property and income is secondary to the loss of children which dwarfs any loss of income now or in the future.

The list of navy seals, army rangers, US marines and special forces personnel who have seen and survived actual real combat and would think nothing of running at an enemy tank or fortified position regularly swallow the business end of a shotgun upon being divorced. That’s my list of friends and yes I know their stories.  The numbers on this are high yet we’re being told all these brave men are “cowards” because they’re down on marriage?  Even if you think men should line up to commit suicide to create the next batch of single mothers at least be honest with what you’re asking and encourage them to prepare to leave the country.  The financial incentives for women to divorce are very high and the culture rewards them for doing it.  Unless you are signing up for violent revolution John Wick style this won’t change.  Getting married and having children in America grants a man fewer rights than had a slave in the antebellum South.  It was technically illegal to starve your slave back then but modern family law can do this with 65{f33784e39f95a4a537f95eb029d837fe676a3542b2380ed2d704b841b03a8c5e} with-holding plus seizing anything left done by direct deposit as soon as it hits a bank (direct deposit is now required for most employment and all government funds).

The list of people who can relate real world experience in this isn’t some list of omega cowards either… Fred Reed (a writer Vox used to respect and linked too often), Terrence Popp (former Ranger), Big John (former Marine) from MGTOW is freedom, these men are not stupid, they’re not cowards, and they all fought with serious depression, suicidal thoughts, crippling poverty and homelessness upon divorce.  They’ve seen actual real combat – not the kind you see on video games and yet they’d all tell you losing their children was much MUCH worse.  Now they’re warning you about this and they’re all just scaredy cats who aren’t men and they’re the exception?  Right. Divorce isn’t a dragon one fights and emerges with a sense of victory and accomplishment, its like surviving a nuclear blast.  Yes you did it but really where is the glory and pride?  While I agree that having a children changes a man for the good it is being a father that gives you the reward and that is what is taken away.  You are not getting anything but children who don’t know you, are taught to hate you, and your only hope is that they’ll change their mind someday.  Rather like supplying fresh troops for the enemy and this is the goal of the devil of course.  At least if you’re going to recommend this have men move to a place that is not currently headed to the lowest rift of hell on a fast train.

C3’s perspective based on his personal experience is understandable, but it is also narcissistic and twisted. His advice is downright evil; it is his counsel of defeat and despair that is the goal of the devil; Satan does not want men of God to be fruitful and multiply, he wants them to be rendered sterile by fear. The inherent falseness in C3’s advice, such as it is, is underlined by the fact that even C3 does not come right out and say that he wishes he’d never had those children whose absence is such torture to him.

And yes, all those brave men are absolutely cowards in this context. There are different forms of bravery and there are different forms of cowardice. Has C3 never seen the decorated soldier who can’t stand up to the sharp tongue of a woman half his size? The ability to face a quick and painless death without flinching is very, very different than the ability to face years of emotional pain.

As for the rhetorical appeal to military suicides, the fact is that the vast majority of veterans who kill themselves are not even married, let alone divorced. Furthermore, most male suicides are committed well before the average age of first marriage, let alone fatherhood, so the entire appeal is not merely manipulative emotionally, but dishonest.

C3 added a second comment:

Serious question – without resorting to shame or ridicule or intangibles what are the positive incentives for getting married and having children in America today for a man?  Yes I know you’ll call any man who doesn’t do it double plus bad things which is right up there with ‘rayciss’ and ‘sexist’ etc.  But what are the actual positive incentives for a man?  You get to work a lot harder for others benefit, you get to be completely responsible for others under penalty of prison without having any authority to do anything, and you get to be ridiculed non-stop as a blundering idiot by Hollywood 24×7.  She gets the house, the children, the white dress, the stay at home and you get the alimony, the child support (for kids that may or may not be yours), domestic violence charges, prison, homelessness, and cuckoldry.

So yes I realize western civilization and buck up chump and you need to do this for queen and country and GOD etc but in reality people pursue what is good for them directly and not others.  If you don’t believe me look at why socialism fails everywhere – people pursue what they perceive to be in their own best interest, selfishly, and right now there are literally NO positive reasons for a man to get married that I can see.  So no intangible “oh you’ll really FEEEEEEELLL it later because children will magically transform your soul through the dark mirror with the wizard totem and power ups and…” no really in succinct terms …  WHAT ARE THE POSITIVE REASONS FOR A MAN AND FROM HIS (NOT HER AND NOT SOCIETIES) PERSPECTIVE TO GET MARRIED AND HAVE CHILDREN TODAY?  Good luck…

Joy. Happiness. Love. Self-satisfaction. A sense of purpose. Meaning. Respect and self-respect. The fact that C3 considers being “ridiculed non-stop as a blundering idiot by Hollywood” to be a serious factor in his analysis demonstrates how completely warped his perspective is. Why on Earth would he, or anyone, give a damn how a few dozen devil-worshipping pedophiles happen to regard one’s priorities in life?


A day of infamous deceit

As if there were still any remaining doubts, the evidence that FDR not only knew about the Pearl Harbor attack ahead of time, but actually connived at making it happen in order to get the USA in the war against Germany is conclusive:

A Second World War Navy radioman turned journalist, Robert Stinnett was in the National Archives in Belmont, California, researching a campaign-year picture book on George Bush’s South Pacific wartime navy career in aerial reconnaissance — George Bush: His World War II Years (Washington, D.C., Brassey’s, 1992) — and encountered unindexed duplicate copies of Pearl Harbor radio intercept records of Japanese Navy code transmissions — documentary evidence of what actually happened at Pearl Harbor and how it came about. After eight years of further research and a prolonged case at law under the Freedom of Information Act to obtain partial release of these materials, Stinson published Day of Deceit (2000). A Japanese translation appeared within a year, understandably.

Stinnett demonstrates, on the basis of extensive incontrovertible factual evidence and self-evidently accurate analysis that President Roosevelt oversaw the contrivance and deployment of a closely-guarded secret plan to goad the Japanese into attacking Pearl Harbor and monitor them while they did it. Stinnett hypothesizes that Roosevelt did this in order to precipitate an unwilling American public into supporting intervention in the Second World War, but whatever the motives or purposes, the facts are now abundantly clear. Stinnett establishes and proves his case with voluminous documentary evidence, including forty-seven pages of Appendices presenting photographic reproductions of key official records, as well as numerous others reproduced in the body of the text, and 65 pages of closely detailed reference notes. This evidence proves Stinnett’s factual assertions, arguments and conclusions. His research files and notes are deposited at the Hoover Institute library at Stanford. Day of Deceit is exemplary documentary historiography. It presents the material testimony on which its analysis and conclusions are based. Its validity will be clear to any fair-minded reader. Stinnett’s book settles and resolves rational, candid, honest, fact-based discussion and debate about the background of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

As Stinnett shows, the plan that eventuated in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was set in motion in early October 1940 based on an “eight-action memo, dated October 7, 1940 … by Lieutenant Commander Arthur H. McCollum, head of the Far East desk of the Office of Navy Intelligence.”

At this point it should be abundantly clear to every historically aware individual that absolutely no single incident should ever be regarded as a legitimate justification for war by the American public, considering the way in which the US government regularly engages in fraud and deception in order to manipulate public opinion whenever it wants to go to war with a foreign state.

And note that the author served in the U.S. Navy from 1942 to 1946. He clearly isn’t an anti-military fantasist with an axe to grind.


Approved opposition and the fake speech platforms

An Idka commenter is dubious about the new “free speech” social media sites:

Just saw a video with the Parler CEO. Only watched a few minutes because it feels off enough to be uncomfortable and the pattern is so clear. There is a lot of wizardry here – the weird hypnotic rhythm, the micro-expressions not really matching the surface conversation, the selective framing, Alex Jones going too far at times… This would be the Turning Point wing of the fake right – the prominence of Candace Owens isn’t subtle.

It looks targeted to whatever is left of “traditional” civnat conservatism. Mostly Boomers at this point, I’d assume. The fake framing is that “the system” is real, the base problem is “censorship”, “the left” has gone too far, and we need to get back to what America looked like on t.v. in the Reagan era. It’s basically discourse in the fake academic sense as fly paper. Incidentally, I’d never really noticed the crazy eyes/oversized mandible that is common on deranged globohomo women.

The most disappointing thing about it is how obviously inverted it is. Right down to the veiled decadence of the homosexual host. It’s like there was an Owen sketch called The Cuck and the Sodomite, only not funny.

He’s right to be dubious. Parler and Thinkspot are exactly analogical to the Intellectual Dark Web. They are fake opposition to the mainstream, approved alternatives created to allow those who are shaky in their loyalties to the Narrative to feel as if they are standing against it without actually doing so.

Notice, in particular, the way these “upstart new platforms” are being treated very, very differently than the likes of genuine alternative platforms such as BitChute, Gab, Fediway, Mastodon, and Infogalactic.

Breitbart News recently spoke with the CEO of upstart social media platform Parler about the company’s plans and what makes Parler different from Big Tech’s social media platforms. Breitbart News will begin actively posting on its official Parler account in the near future.


Making America smarter

There are some real rocket scientists arriving from Africa:

Roughly 300 Congolese and Angolan citizens who arrived in San Antonio the first week of June after crossing the U.S.-Mexico border days earlier have all briskly departed the city for destinations across the country, some with fuzzy plans based partly on hope. While many Central American families who arrive have final destinations and family members in mind who could pay for their tickets and put them up, the African families did not always have quite as clearly defined plans.

“They come with a place in mind. ‘My friend told me to go to Portland, Maine, because there’s a lot of Congolese families that already live there and it’s welcoming,” said Nemeth. “And they have that plan in mind, right? But they don’t understand the geography — like where it is, how much it costs to get there. There’s a lot of misconceptions. They may think, ‘I have a friend there,’ but they don’t have a friend’s phone number … [We can look into] what is their last name, phone book, call shelter and ask about them, connect the dots. I wouldn’t say that we’re just putting them randomly. They have an idea.”

The African migrants are spending six to seven months traveling to Brazil then up to the U.S. Those entering the U.S. through this route did so because they “were scared the [refugee] process was not gonna work, or that it’s last a standstill,” said Christina Higgs, Catholic Charities spokeswoman for the San Antonio region. Some worried traveling to or through Europe was “getting really dangerous.”

Europe is getting dangerous because the Europeans are actively embracing nationalism and aggressively opposing all immigration. Meanwhile, in the USA, more than half the so-called nationalists are still civic nationalists who don’t understand or accept that a nation is not an abstraction or an idea. Remember, it’s just the illegal immigration they oppose. Legality makes it all good, apparently because the Magic Dirt only works on legal immigrants. Also, huddled masses, melting pot, and judeo-christian ethics.

It doesn’t help that most Americans don’t know that African-Americans are nearly 20 percent European on average. The difference between an 85 IQ and a 70 IQ is very hard to imagine for the average 100 IQ individual, and the latter almost has to be witnessed to be believed.

As for those “welcoming” cities, send all the New Americans there, by all means. It will be informative to see how long it takes those welcoming people so happy to help poor refugees to flee their hometowns. There are only 81 million more hopeful Congolese who would love to make a better life for themselves and their families in the USA, after all.


Framing Infowars

It looks like someone is really desperate to take down Alex Jones:

The FBI has informed Alex Jones someone planted child pornography on the servers for his Infowars website and on Friday the controversial radio host offered a $1 million reward for any information leading to an arrest.

Federal authorities have been conducting a child pornography investigation for several weeks after they reviewed emailed threats made against Jones that contained links to child pornography websites, according to his attorney Norm Pattis.

Pattis appeared on Jones’ show late Friday afternoon to discuss the incident. But before he did Jones went on a five-minute, profanity-laced rant announcing the reward for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of whoever infiltrated the his company’s servers.

Forget deep fakes. The real legal issue going forward will be criminal material that is planted in order to frame innocent people.

One thing that many readers here might not know is that one blog troll I’ve mentioned as having had investigated by police in the past was guilty of doing this, not to this blog, but to a forum he had been frequenting, which was one reason the police didn’t hesitate to act.

In this case, it looks as if it is likely someone who was aware of, if not actively involved in, the Sandy Hook lawsuit against Infowars.
