The important thing to understand about this is that it’s real. You know, when I told you guys about this stuff ten days ago, two weeks ago, whatever it was, a lot of people just simply didn’t believe me. They didn’t want to believe, they wanted to believe that I was just coming up with some excuse to justify my actions. Now whether you agree with my actions or not, the point is that this situation is real. SJWs within the technology companies are abusing their positions and going after people they consider to be the enemy, and that’s not just people like us, people who are open and avowedly Christian, who are open and avowedly Alt-Right, who are open about being nationalists, but it also includes all of those who are incorrectly lumped in with us.
And so you know, they’re going to take these kinds of actions and you need to be prepared for it. Now we didn’t flip out, we didn’t panic, we just calmly sat down and analyzed the stuff, looked more deeply into it and then figured out what was going on. The concern that I have is that it’s very clear to me, from the way that the ComicsGate folks are attempting to virtue signal and attempting to get themselves out of the sights of the SJWs, means that they’re not ready for this.
So what did we learn today? I don’t know about you, but I was, of course, horrified to read the Washington Post and be informed that not only is ComicsGate Hitler, but that Ethan Van Sciver is also Hitler, and that Diversity & Comics is also Hitler too. Now, I have to admit that there is a certain amount of, I guess since we’re on the Germanic theme, schadenfreude, to be had in watching how this is playing out from the outside. The thing that the virtue signalers and ComicsGatekeepers simply refuse to understand is that there is nothing – nothing – you can do to defend yourself against a rhetorical attack by SJWs.
You can virtue signal all you like, you can run around talking about how you are a diverse movement and that you that you hate hate hate the Alt-Right, that you disavow, disapprove, and anathematize people like myself and so forth, but it won’t do you a damned bit of good. So yeah, my first thought when I was reading that was, “hey, don’t come talking to me about this, you know, Two-Face van Sciver owns the trademark!” I’m actually waiting for the first accusations that my contacts at the Washington Post set that whole thing up, that this is somehow my fault. I deny that! I absolutely deny that I arranged that hit piece!
I’m not going to pretend that I don’t find it funny. I find it more than a little bit amusing, though not quite hysterical just because I understand that the very ComicsGatekeepers who were trying to brigade this particular stream are probably genuinely astounded, and genuinely dismayed, at these attacks from the mainstream media. And what you have to understand is that they’re not going to stop, they’re not going to listen to you. They’re not going to give you a fair shake, they’re not going to allow you to defend yourself in any way, shape, or form, and they’re going to lie. So you’re going to see more articles like this. You know, we saw this with GamerGate. A lot of you guys don’t know about the history of the Sad Puppies and the Rabid Puppies, but you really need to learn it because you guys are in the position of the Sad Puppies. The Sad Puppies were completely obliterated and that’s the fate that is in store for you if you follow your instincts.
Needless to say, the ComicsGatekeepers didn’t listen to me and continued to engage in some very public acts of virtue-signaling. A reader writes about D&C’s foolish decision to metaphorically tattoo “kick me” on his forehead:
I have to admit, even knowing better, to being highly disappointed in D&C’s latest futile attempt at virtue-signalling. He’s running another limited Indiegogo campaign as a “charity event” at premium prices, with at least US$10,000 to a charity that he spent several days researching and selecting.
Did he, a US veteran knowing full well how many veterans are in dire straits and in need of help, select Disabled American Veterans or another veterans’ charity. He did not. He chose The Trevor Project, an LGBTQIA+ charity. Seriously. Semper Fi is out; “please accept me, SJWs” is in.
The ComicsGatekeepers are cuckservatives through and through, and are unable and unwilling to conserve a damned thing. Just as you’ve said.
Once you indicate that you are willing to submit to the SJW Narrative, SJWs will never leave you alone until you submit to them entirely. The virtue-signaling tells them that you’re weak and that they only have to increase the pressure until you can’t take it anymore and give in to their demands. That’s one of the reasons they seldom even bother with me anymore. They know that not only will I never accept their idiot Narrative or submit to them, but the VFM and I will go after them harder and faster and from more directions than they even knew were vulnerable.
Jordanetics is gradually losing its hold on people. More and more people are becoming aware that Jordan Peterson is not only a liar, he is a complete lunatic who should be in a padded cell for his own protection. And all that is required to convince them of this is repeatedly quoting Jordan Peterson’s own words from his own speeches and books at length.
I was highly skeptical on your attacks against Peterson for a long while. It took me awhile to come around, but when you’re right you’re right, hat’s off to you.
Same here. After his third or fourth Darkstream about Peterson and a few blog posts. I started realizing that he was correct.
I was hesitant at first to listen to Vox when he started explaining what was really going on. I’d started to become invested in Peterson. But the arguments and examples can’t be ignored. I will not flinch from unpleasant truths. Peterson being a leftist shuck and jive artist with emotional problems is one of those truths.
Vox you called it from the start. I think you were the first person I heard call out Peterson. I could smell something funny, but couldn’t really tell. But you knew it. And called it.
From what Peterson has stated: this is classic SSRI and/or benzodiazapine withdrawal, akethesia, manic psychosis. This buckaroo is having a breakdown, especially if he’s been experimenting with drugs . Bravo Vox for shining light on this fraud with a messiah complex. Someone should section 35 this clown Peterson.
JBP is a complete fruitcake.. You’re 100{e1b6c4ee08d0f44a6a5b11eb06b9139d63cfe72acbaefd7257f78696d447c626} right about him. Thanks for opening my eyes on that topic.
Damn he really is totally crazy! How are people still not seeing it when he is throwing it right out there?
I thought that it was rambling, incoherent, badly written nonsense. I didn’t know it was chock full of sexual deviancy.
The proof Jordan Peterson is crazy is that he is STILL promoting Maps Of Meaning 2 decades after he wrote it.
I’m no Christian, but Day’s critiques of Peterson are accurate.
Okay, so now let me let me point this out: if you have a 25-day stretch of terror and impending doom and you cannot sleep for however long it was – it wasn’t 25 days, we know it wasn’t 25 days, unless of course he has actually transcended the Material Plane like L. Ron Hubbard and is now doing his work beyond the limitations of the human body – if that happens from drinking apple cider there is nothing wrong with your body, there is something wrong with your head! You are simply insane, okay?
This guy is an utter and total lunatic, but just so you understand, this is not new. I’ve been telling you that the guy is insane since I read his Maps of Meaning. Now, because I brought your attention to it, a lot of you are now familiar with the whole Jordan Peterson wants to bang his cousin and dreams about cannibalizing her while the world is ending thing. If you notice, apocalyptic doom is a consistent theme with him. All right, so this is also from Maps of Meaning, and buckle your seat belts because some of you, if you’ve read it, then you know where I’m going with this one. Trust me, if you thought the whole cousin thing was bad, just wait. Please keep in mind that I am reading from Jordan Peterson’s Maps of Meaning.
I dreamed I saw my maternal grandmother sitting by the bank of a swimming pool, which was also a river. Her genital region was exposed dimly. It had the appearance of a thick mane of hair. She was stroking herself absentmindedly. She walked over to me with a handful of pubic hair compacted into something resembling a large artist’s paintbrush. She pushed this at my face. I raised my arm several times to deflect her hand. Finally, unwilling to hurt her or interfere with her any further, I let her have her way. She stroked my face with the brush gently and said, like a child, isn’t it soft?
This guy has serious incest issues. Every time he’s dreaming about his female relatives, it has something to do with sex, and if you put this together with the fact that he was brought in to try to dismiss the idea that there was a official conspiracy to try to conceal some known child molesters in Canada, you know there is something very, very, very hinky going on in the Peterson family.
David Eig Challenge him to a debate. It won’t turn out well for you Vox.
Darkstream by Vox Day I hereby challenge Jordan Peterson to a public written debate, to be published simultaneously on my blog and the site of his choosing.
Now all of the Jordanetics cultists who have been repeatedly telling me that I should challenge him to a debate can go and pester Peterson about debating me. I’m confident they’re all going to get right on that. I’m sure they won’t make any excuses for his failure to accept the challenge.
What I realized is that the problem with the concern troll, and the reason that concern trolling should not be tolerated even among those who are friendly, even among people who are on your side, is that a concern troll is always perfectly happy to trade someone else’s demoralization for his own narcissistic rush. He’s putting his own narcissism ahead of the way that other people feel, it’s actually a very, very negative trait and it’s kind of related to the pessimists who invariably predict failure and really seem to get off on explaining why nothing’s going to change, why no one’s ever going to win, why no matter what you do it’s going to fail or it’s not going to make any difference anyway.
This is something that I no longer permit on the blog, in fact, I learned to stop permitting it during the 2016 campaign, and I think the Lord Humungus is correct when he said they’re emotionally hedging. But here’s the problem. There’s nothing wrong with emotionally hedging on your own behalf, there’s nothing wrong with protecting your own feelings because you have been disappointed before, but where it starts to become a problem, where it starts to become a negative action, is when in the interests of your own emotional hedging you actually attack the optimism and the hope of your own allies. I mean, think about it. Suppose that leading up to D-Day, Montgomery and other generals kept telling Eisenhower “oh you know this landing, it’s never gonna work, you know, look what look what happened at Anzio, look what happened when the Germans attacked Crete, it’s all gonna be a disaster, we shouldn’t do this.”
Now what good, from the Allied perspective, is going to come of that? These people don’t actually know what’s going to happen. If we listened to all of the pessimists who were talking about Trump, he never would have won, he never would have pulled off the victory, and he probably wouldn’t have even won the Republican nomination. It wasn’t just people who were against Trump who were making these predictions, it was people who said, “oh yeah, well, you know, Trump’s the only one who could possibly be any good, but he can never win, he can never beat 30 percent, he can’t beat 35 percent, he can’t win the nomination, he can’t win the general election.
What I would suggest you do if you’re tempted to concern troll, if you’re tempted to share your pessimism, or your lack of hope, or your despair or whatever, don’t share it. Keep it to yourself. I can’t tell you how many times concern trolls have told me stuff that they’ve been completely wrong about. I mean, these concern trolls who say this stuff so they can say “I told you so,” well, they’ve been wrong far more often than they’re right.
The Alt★Hero: Q campaign has begun. Please visit the campaign page for more information about the graphic novel and the various backing options.
UPDATE: After 12 hours, we have reached 250 backers and 39 percent of the green light goal. Thanks to everyone who is supporting this and making it possible. Spread the word!
Voxiversity is back with a vengeance. The production team and I are pleased to announce Voxiversity Episode 007, THE MADNESS OF JORDAN PETERSON.
The bestselling author of THE IRRATIONAL ATHEIST and ON THE EXISTENCE OF GODS exposes Dr. Jordan Peterson as an intellectual charlatan, an anti-Christian globalist, and a mentally unstable defender of the neo-liberal world order by extensively quoting Peterson’s own incoherencies and inconsistencies in context.
We’re also sending out an email today to all the Voxiversity backers to let them know it is possible to support Voxiversity again through direct monthly subscriptions. If you wish to join them, you can do so now via the Castalia House Store. Based on my improved understanding of how the video audience-building process works, we’ve integrated the Darkstream with the Voxiversity. By supporting one or the other, you will be supporting both. This is also more cost-efficient than going through a Patreon-style service. Please note these are all MONTHLY subscriptions.
Note that site registration is required for recurring subscriptions. We’ll put a site up on Oneway to keep track of the number of backers and so forth, but there is no need to sign up through that. The revised idea is to use the regular Darkstreams to address the various issues brought up by the backers faster and on a more regular basis, while utilizing the Voxiversity episodes to address the deeper issues more substantively.
Thanks to all the backers for your patience as we dealt with the various obstacles presented, and special thanks in particular to the Foundation members, who stepped in and maintained their support for the program even through the two-month hiatus.
Scott Adams was talking about how the whole Q thing was bad for MAGA. Now that sounds very cryptic, but what he’s talking about is how he is concerned, like a lot of middle-of-the-road folks and moderates, he is concerned that talking about conspiracy theory is going to turn off, confuse, and disenchant people who might otherwise be inclined to support making America great again. Now this is the conventional moderate talk, all right, moderates always think that the secret to success is appealing to the moderates. You know, they always always do this. Back when Ronald Reagan was a candidate, before he won the nomination, we heard the same sort of reasoning, if you’re going to win you need to move to the center. Okay that is the conventional wisdom, and again and again and again, political history proves that to be wrong.
Chasing the moderates is actually the way to ensure that you, number one, will probably lose, and, number two, if you do win you’re not going to be able to do anything. Moderates above all fear change, all moderates want is to stick with the status quo, and so you know running to the center, it’s exactly what the elder George Bush did and that was part of why he managed to lose. So when you look at any advice about politics that worries excessively about marketing, about brand, about turning people off and all that sort of thing, you need to look at it with this very skeptical eye, because most of the time it is not coming from a rational point of political analysis, it’s not coming from an observation and application of political history, it’s simply coming from the moderate’s distaste for anything that normal people might look at with a skeptical eye.
Now, the reality is people follow strength. People follow truth as long as it is fearlessly and forcefully spoken. We see this all around the world and we’ve seen this all through history. Those who stand up and speak the truth tend to meet with very positive reactions because people have a tendency to recognize the truth when they hear it.
If you think about it, what has Q accomplished? What is the primary consequence of Q, has it resulted in more or less confidence in the system? Has it caused people to embrace or reject the FBI, the CIA. and the professional Deep State. Has it appealed to the mainstream media or has it frightened the mainstream media? Okay, those are the questions that are relevant. Who Q happens to be and whether everything that Q says is 100 percent accurate or not, you know, these things are not even relevant points, they’re not even relevant questions.
