Nationalist or Feminist

Time will tell. Given the disastrous historical performances by female leaders like Margaret Thatcher and Angela Merkel, it’s hard to have any confidence in Japan’s next prime minister, Sanae Takaichi, despite her ideological superiority to her LDP rivals:

Japan’s ruling party picked hardline conservative Sanae Takaichi as its head on Saturday, putting her on course to become the country’s first female prime minister in a move set to jolt investors and neighbors.

The Liberal Democratic Party, which has ruled Japan for almost all of the postwar era, elected Takaichi, 64, to regain trust from a public angered by rising prices and drawn to opposition groups promising stimulus and clampdowns on migrants.

A vote in parliament to choose a replacement for outgoing Shigeru Ishiba is expected on October 15. Takaichi is favored as the ruling coalition has the largest number of seats.

Takaichi, the only woman among the five LDP candidates, beat a challenge from the more moderate Shinjiro Koizumi, 44, who was bidding to become the youngest modern leader.

Being more influenced by their social surroundings than men, women in positions of political leadership also tend to “grow” more in office because the influences on them once they become a broad spectrum leader, they are suddenly subject to pressure from a much broader range of interests and ideologies.

Margaret Thatcher violated her most precious principles when she sold out British sovereignty and permitted Great Britain to join the precursor to the European Union. Angela Merkel was the most conservative major party leader when she invited the invasion of Germany by the mass of third-world migrants in 2015.

So, I would not expect too much from either Takaichi or Alice Weidel of Germany’s AfD party. Because no matter hardline or conservative they are now, they are still women and they are still subject to the same social pressures that so easily manipulate their more liberal sisters.

What a Difference 10 Years Makes

When people ask “how can you believe that women shouldn’t have the right to vote,” I don’t equivocate, retreat, or attempt to qualify my position on the subject. I simply ask them how it is possible for them to believe, with more than 100 years of evidence available, that extending the franchise to women has improved any society in any way anywhere on the planet.

In a reasonable and rational world, men and women would agree that some fundamental assumptions were incorrect, some very serious mistakes were made, and men would protect women by not permitting them any direct involvement in macro-level societal decisions. But this is not that world. We live in an irrational, unreasonable, and stupid one.

So, most women will have to protect themselves from the inevitable consequences of their personal decisions and political preferences. That should prove to be an interesting challenge. One certainly wonders what point they’ll have reached in another ten years.

China’s Demographic Decline

It’s not a great mystery why China recently revised its marriage and divorce laws to make the former easier and significantly disincentivize women from pursuing the latter:

The number of Chinese kindergartens has fallen by a quarter in four years, prompting the closure of tens of thousands of schools in the country as a precipitous drop in births hits the education system.

Enrolments in China’s kindergartens have declined by 12mn children between 2020 and 2024, from a peak of 48mn, according to data from the country’s ministry of education. The number of kindergartens, serving Chinese children aged 3-5, has also fallen by 41,500 from a high of nearly 295,000 in 2021.

Falling enrolments are now “baked into the system and that’s not going to change”, said Stuart Gietel-Basten, director of the Center for Aging Science at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He added that compared with five or 10 years ago, the decline in births was “huge”.

The contraction of China’s pre-school system is a foretaste of the challenges to come for business and policymakers from China’s demographic decline, which is expected to be one of the most rapid in the world. China has recorded three consecutive years of population decline to 2024 following the decades-long policy, ended in 2016, that limited many couples to one child. While the number of births rose by about 520,000 last year to 9.3mn, following a record low in 2023, they were still outpaced by deaths and have declined by nearly half since the peak of 17.9mn in 2017.

It’s fascinating to observe that the importation of Western feminism has proven to be even worse for Chinese fertility than the notorious one-child policy that was in place from 1978 to 2015. Which suggests that if the birth rates don’t turn around quickly, China is going to start cracking down hard on permitting young women to pursue higher education, given that education has proven to be the most efficient way to render women barren.

It’s far too soon to tell, but I suspect that it is the Enlightenment and its false values that the historians of the future will eventually hold responsible for the decline and fall of the West.

Less School, More Children

Any modern society that wishes to survive needs to reduce the number of years that young women spend in school. Russia has already figured this out and I have little doubt that China will soon follow suit.

A senior Russian demographer has proposed cutting the number of years children must attend school in order to promote earlier parenthood and reverse a national trend towards lower fertility, TASS reports. Sergey Rybalchenko, head of the Public Chamber’s Demography Commission, has argued that bold steps are necessary to prevent Russia’s population from shrinking.

In recent years, the country has seen negative natural population growth, falling from 149 million in 1993 to 146 million in 2025 despite an influx of immigrants and the unification of the country with Crimea in 2014 and four former Ukrainian regions in 2022.

The country’s population is poised to decrease to 138.8 million people in 2046, according to the base-case scenario developed by the federal statistics agency Rosstat.

“A shorter education period would enable young people to reach adulthood and plan to have children for two years earlier,” Rybalchenko told TASS, explaining the initiative.

Getting married and having children at a higher age is linked to a longer period of social maturation, the demographer pointed out. Young people only start to think about children by the age of 27, as they spend 17 years getting an education and dedicate an additional three years to social adaptation after finishing university, he explained.

A large scale study covering 1950 to 2023 clearly showed that to reach an average Total Fertility Rate of 3.0, the average number of years schooled for young women should be 10. And anything beyond 12 is a disaster; the most societally destructive thing that the USA has done since passing the 1965 Naturalization Act is to increase the number of women in higher education.

As I have stated repeatedly before, feminism is one of the few ideologies that are more lethal and destructive than either communism or national socialism. And whichever major power recognizes this and embraces post-feminism will have a significant advantage over its rivals.

Because You Wanted It

WOMEN: We should get paid the same as men because there should be equal pay for equal work!

ALSO WOMEN: Why the fuck are women expected to work on their period? I’m sitting here at work keeled over in intense pain wearing a fucking diaper because my uterus is self destructing and l׳m expected to wear tight business casual clothing pants, be friendly to coworkers, AND do my work? Fuck this fucking sexist misogynistic society that tells women to suffer through several days of intense pain and act completely normally. I shouldn’t have to take a sick day every month and be looked at like a slacker because my body is losing a gallon of blood and tissue a day.

Prior to being “liberated” she would not have been expected to show up to an office and put in the same effort and hours as a man regardless of her physical state, but accepting false premises invariably leads to suboptimal consequences.

If you’re a young woman, think very, very carefully about what you actually want, not what some ugly Jewish feminists from the 1960s told you that you should want. Because if you pursue it, you’re probably going to get it. And while being a man is many things, two of those things are not “easy” or “fun”. Also, it’s exceedingly stupid to follow the path set by mentally unstable women whose lives were burning trash fires and whose ends were ugly.

No one was more important to the birth and flourishing of early women’s liberation than this singular persona. Shulamith Firestone died alone in New York, in her East Village apartment, where apparently she had expired some days before. No one had known of her passing.

Speaking of Zero Empathy

Some bullies just don’t know when to stop relying on bullying others to get what they want:

Blake Lively allegedly threatened to leak embarrassing private texts from bestie Taylor Swift unless the pop star agreed to publicly back the actress in her feud with co-star Justin Baldoni, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

The explosive revelation appears in a legal letter filed Wednesday by Baldoni’s lawyers, in response to Lively’s request to quash their subpoena to the singer.

The court filing alleges that the Gossip Girl alum had tried to pressure Swift, 35, to issue a public statement in support of her and urged her to delete text messages between them during her escalating legal battle with Baldoni, 41.

I was pretty sure this wasn’t going to end well for Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds, but I had no idea they were in this far over their heads. Taylor Swift goes out of her way to destroy guys she dated for three weeks, imagine what she’s likely to do when faced with this sort of betrayal from a former friend.

One has to assume Russian scientists are watching the situation closely, since this might be the most devastating non-nuclear weapon to be dropped since the Oreshnik was introduced.

This Would Be Why

Women sometimes complain that men don’t take them seriously. And this sort of thing is why:

Katy Perry looked ready for action on Sunday as she posed alongside Lauren Sánchez in bodycon space outfits ahead of their Blue Origin mission on Monday as the singer declared: ‘We’re putting the ‘ass’ in astronaut!’

The star will be part of a history-making 11-minute flight, alongside Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren, journalist Gayle King and three other women, which is set to be the first all-female trip to space since 1963.

The launch is part of Blue Origin’s New Shepherd program – and will take place in west Texas on April 14, with the new space suits designed by Lauren herself.

Katy shared snaps from the launch on Sunday to her Instagram and penned: ‘Happy International Day of Human Space Flight. Forever in awe of the Universe and it’s alignment.’

She looked confident in the blue jumpsuit which was emblazoned with ‘Perry’ and said ‘Blue Origin’ down the arm.

This week Lauren told The New York Times of designing the blue suits: ‘Let’s reimagine the flight suit. Usually, you know, these suits are made for a man. Then they get tailored to fit a woman.’

She added: ‘I think the suits are elegant but they also bring a little spice to space.’ 

Five months ago Lauren got in touch with Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim, the co-founders of the brand Monse, who are also creative directors of Oscar de la Renta and made her 2024 Met Gala outfit.

They agreed to help her with the space suit designs. 

Fernando said during the interview: ‘We even had a meeting on what underwear Lauren is going to wear…’ to which she responded: ‘Skims!’

I’m not saying the suits aren’t attractive. They are. Sanchez, at least, looks good in hers. It’s just that what it says about the priorities of the female astronauts doesn’t tend to lend it to anyone taking them seriously. I mean, if it weren’t for the fact that we know none of them had anything to do with the flight itself, and that they’ll have no more control over the flight controls than the dog the Russians sent up back in the day did, the odds would very heavily favor them crashing.

Lonely Liberal Women

I wonder if they’ve ever considered how not behaving like horrifically unpleasant control freaks ready to take offense or administer a retarded lecture at the drop of a hat might make people more willing to spend time with them? Almost certainly not. They probably haven’t considered how actively uglifying themselves with ridiculous haircuts, piercings, and venomous hair colors makes them unattractive to others either.

It’s interesting to see how the conservative women are not only more soundly based, but more socially successful.

Where the Men Are

All the men are doing things of which this woman disapproves, disavows, and seeks to destroy. Men have no interest in the social environments that women create, much less learning how to navigate them, and very few men have any interest in seeking the approval of what appears to be an increasingly deranged and increasingly medicated population of maleducated women devoted to dyscivilization.

Men don’t follow women. And men aren’t interested in women who don’t want to follow their lead. And interestingly enough, women aren’t interested in the few sad specimens of men who are.

It’s not a mystery. The pick-me girls don’t seem to have any trouble figuring out where the men are.

Women in Tech Fail

The diversity crowd is going to have a tough time increasing the number of women in tech as long as the women are able to get paid more for their less-technical talents.

The draw of making content can overwhelm just about anyone. That includes a bioengineer who was working on her PhD. Last year, Zara Dar made headlines when she shot up to the 0.3% of creators on OnlyFans making content as the “hot science girl.” She was bringing in $30k a month while furthering her education at the University of Texas at Austin. A few days ago, she announced on YouTube, where she has more than 100,000 subscribers, that she had made the decision to become a PhD dropout in order to focus on creating content full-time.

The self-described “nerd with a passion for art, fitness, and reading” admitted that it was a difficult decision to make. Dar said, “I’ve dropped out of my PhD. I’ve cried so much over this decision to quit my PhD, you know, because it’s a stressful decision, not that I’m particularly sad about it… moving on to doing OnlyFans and content creation full-time, it’s not just a career choice, it feels kind of like a gamble on the direction of my entire life.”

This hot science girl is now a PhD dropout, taking her talents to the content game full-time. The draw of furthering her engineering career was strong, but not as strong as doing content. That and having her life tied to someone else’s vision while working for a company, spending her time doing things she didn’t want to do wasn’t what she wanted for herself.

It’s fascinating to observe how fast the social justice movement is destroying itself as well as every corporation, institution, and industry it touches.
