Greener Grass Syndrome

The Manosphere has a serious problem with Greener Grass Syndrome. So many people don’t have our troubles with feminism… until one scratches the surface and discovers the other half isn’t doing any better. This problem crops up regularly on blogs and websites as frustrated men try to convince themselves that Shangri-La is an achievable goal.

Are parts of Africa more patriarchal than the West? No doubt, because poverty prevents Africans from ignoring reality as long as the West can. That doesn’t make poverty a noble virtue. It doesn’t mean Africans won’t go feminist the moment they can afford to.

Is China doing better than USA & UK? Every metric says yes. Every metric is produced by government and China is a totalitarian government that doesn’t think twice about cooking the books. Its people could starve during a “good harvest” and nobody would blink.

Will Islam get you more sex than Christianity? Of course, because Christianity doesn’t permit raping your enemies’ children, running slave harems or threatening to murder police if they get between you and your fun.

I’m waiting for the Manosphere to realize drug gangs are “patriarchy” because gangers swim in cash & chicks until their lives end at age 19 in handcuffs or gunfire. It’s a perfect metaphor for the problem we face: every solution we find will work until we try it.

Truth is, history doesn’t just repeat. History is a factory. The eternal intersexual conflict between men & women serves no practical purpose and is both a disproof to evolution, which claims we’ve been optimized through billennia of trial & error, and proof that we are badly flawed as a created species. Either God made a very bad mistake when He made us or our experience confronting matriarchy is a lesson He is so desperate for us to learn that He created an entire reality for no other reason.

There is no solution to embrace. No safe space to move to. No greener grass. Sometimes things are better, sometimes worse, but we all must confront & endure this flaw inside us. The flaw that always encourages women to rebel against men and men to feel really good about helping her do it.

 

Universal Basic Income for Murderers

[Stockton Mayor Michael] Tubbs, a Stockton native and Stanford graduate who is all of 27 years old, wants to give at least $500 a month to a select group of residents. They’ll be able to spend it as they wish, for 18 months, in a pilot program to test the impact of what’s called guaranteed basic income.

http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-lopez-stockton-money-05272018-story.html

More welfare from a Dindu Mayor. Yawn. Tubby is a fatherless negro who grew up in both poverty and enough money to attend Stanford, who also graduated (presumably) at age 22 and became mayor of a major U.S. city at 26. He’s clearly a spoiled brat of a welfare recipient whose major achievement in life is leveraging white guilt. Just another bipedal mouthpiece for greed.

Stockton is [also] about to award stipends of up to $1,000 a month to residents deemed most likely to shoot somebody. This program is called Advance Peace, and it’s modeled after a crime reduction program in the Bay Area city of Richmond.

Another yawn. More welf… HOLY SHIT!

The idea is that a small number of people are responsible for a large percentage of violence, and offering them an alternative path . with counseling and case management over an 18-month period, along with a stipend if they stay the course . can be a good investment all around.

“Let me be clear, Advance Peace is not a get out of jail free card,” Tubbs wrote in explaining the program on Stockton’s public safety website. “Participating in this program doesn’t erase the past, but it does help these young men learn how to make better choices for their own and our community’s collective future.”

There’s a difference between a vision and a hallucination, and time will tell with Tubbs. But I like the young man’s mix of rebelliousness, impatience and willingness to take risks.

No, you editorializing journalist hack, it’s a hallucination. You get more of what you subsidize! Why is this hard? If you give free money to hair-triggered murder hobos then you get more hair-triggered murder hobos! Why is this hard? Mein Gott, Tubby has found a better way to destroy a city than rent control.

Tubbs attended a San Francisco conference on [UBI] topics last year and met Natalie Foster of the Economic Security Project, whose ambitious goal is to find ways to lift people out of poverty and to rebuild the middle class. Foster co-chairs the project with Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes.

“Actually modeled after the Alaska Permanent Fund,” [Tubbs] wrote. “Are you familiar with it?” The Alaska fund shares the wealth on state oil revenues, awarding residents roughly $2,000 a year.

Alaska pays people to live there because it wants to grow its population. Like I said, you get more of what you subsidize. There are currently three reasons to live in Alaska: oil field work, revenue sharing and mosquito ranching. Stockton does not have these problems (other than breeding parasites).

By the way, the middle class is what you get when you don’t have strong, centralized government. Using government tyranny to free people from the consequences of government tyranny makes me think liberalism is cognitive dissociation between cause and effect.

So, what’s this “Advance Peace” initiative turd that Richmond tried?

http://www.advancepeace.org/about/

In 2009, the police department of Richmond, California, told DeVone Boggan, then the director of the city’s Office of Neighborhood Safety, that less than 30 men were responsible for 70% of the city’s gun crime, which contributed to the city’s less than flattering distinction of being ranked among the top 12 most dangerous cities in America. The following year, Boggan responded by creating and launching the Peacemaker Fellowship. model, which would become the core of Advance Peace.

You know what you do in this situation? You go President Duterte on those 29 animals in their city of 103,700 and there’s no more gun crime, not today and not tomorrow. You don’t try to understand how poverty drove them to armed robbery of innocents. You don’t pay them danegeld and welding classes in return for not murdering. You end them in the street gutter, publicly laugh about ending them and put in a call to Roadkill Abatement for body disposal. Their last stop, the municipal burn barrel. Sic semper human trash.

Hmm, that paragraph appears to be everything the website has to say about its program. Big red flag when a liberal program doesn’t want to explain itself in detail.

Let’s keep digging.

As Director of ONS, Founder DeVone Boggan was responsible for the development, implementation and management of comprehensive approaches to reducing firearm assaults, preventing retaliation associated with firearm conflict, and transforming the lives of the city’s most lethal young men.

Faces of Vote Fraud

This article is a good springboard for discussing various types of fraud in Commiefornia:

http://hotair.com/archives/2018/05/29/california-motor-voter-program-registers-thousands-voters-twice/

The forms that arrived at county elections offices were identical except for the voters’ party preferences. On a sampling of forms reviewed by The [LA] Times, citizens who were listed as a member of a political party on the first registration document were instead listed as an unaffiliated “no party preference” voter on a second document that arrived a week later.

A DMV spokeswoman said Wednesday the system was built by the state Department of Technology and was tested prior to last month’s launch.

County elections officials have been contacting the voters and correcting the errors since they received the first forms on May 5.

“We believe it’s fixed,” said Secretary of State Alex Padilla. “We feel we have our arms around it. We’ve rectified it, and we’ve given proper guidance to the counties.”

Padilla’s staff noticed the errors shortly after the April 23 launch of the California Motor Voter program, created by legislation signed into law in 2015.

Three years to link the DMV database to voter databases? That’s way more time than is needed. Six months tops, three months if the gov’t hires nonunion. It’s a major red flag when politicians want an election cycle to pass before the consequences of what they just enacted are realized.

The program makes voter registration a part of the DMV driver’s license process for every eligible citizen. While voter registration isn’t required, people who are uninterested must make it clear on a touch-screen device that they want to opt out. Californians who are already registered to vote can update their address or party affiliation during a DMV appointment.

The tyranny sequence is “opt in”, then “opt out”, then “opt out only during the three working days before Thanksgiving”, then cancelling the option to opt out as a line item deep inside some omnibus bill. Why is automatic inclusion so important?

“…The system, often referred to as “automatic voter registration,” has been under development for more than two years. Key to its success was the full rollout of California’s statewide voter database . a project that was more than a decade late when it debuted in March 2016. Historically, there were separate voter rolls in each of the state’s 58 counties. Local officials collaborated across county lines, but there was no easily updatable list of all California voters.

Centralization is why automatic inclusion is so important. California is assembling massive, massive centralized databases on everybody and it’s hard to assemble them when participation is opt-in voluntary. Used to be, the Democrats needed 58 parallel teams of “community organizers” to defraud the American people. With this new, soon-to-be-mandatory database, they’ll need only one.

The California Motor Voter Act also required a substantial change in DMV license procedures. For more than two decades, registering to vote has been an option at the agency’s offices. But the new law makes it a routine part of obtaining a license, as long as the driver is legally eligible. Non-citizens aren’t offered the chance to register to vote.

Or do they mean, aren’t allowed to opt out of registering to vote? Pesky glitches.

The full program has yet to be rolled out. Local elections officials said this week they hope to learn more about how voter registration files will be sent to them for final verification.

“It’s not entirely clear how this will work,” said Gail Pellerin, registrar of voters in Santa Cruz County.

A confusing, complicated process that nobody really understands is a great way to cover your tracks.

Nor is there clarity about why the California Motor Voter program was rolled out just six weeks before a statewide election.

The original launch date was pushed back by two weeks and then delayed again after officials said additional testing was needed. There was no public notice when it was turned live on April 23.

Another way to hide your tracks is artificial time pressure so your opponents are overwhelmed. They couldn’t wait seven weeks after working on it for three years?

[SecState] Padilla said it was important to expand access to voter registration for the June primary, which in non-presidential years has had noticeably low turnout.

In some communities, the DMV’s automated system is already poised to dramatically expand the size of the electorate. Foote says Inyo County, home to just 9,674 voters at the time of the last statewide report, has processed more than 600 new registrations in just the past three weeks. While most have been without incident, she said the initial errors could give pause to voters who worry about the accuracy of elections.

Look, if people don’t want to vote then automating the registration process will only create lots and lots of ballots lying around that won’t ever be filled out by the voter… or even missed by the voter. You wouldn’t leave your credit card numbers active in the bank’s computer after shredding the cards, would you? Of course not. That’s an open door for fraud. And apparently, a pressing need in Sacramento.

And all those loose ends are now collected in a single database for easy access.

 

MGTOW Life: Your First Job

I’ll criticize the New York Post while offering my own advice. Twofer!

http://nypost.com/2018/05/27/congrats-class-of-2018-how-to-land-a-job-when-youre-ready/

According to the employment-oriented Web site LinkedIn, if you haven’t secured a post-college job before graduation, the sweet spot for snagging your first position as a career professional is between April and June.

Ironically, that’s the same time period during which 65 percent of the Class of 2018 plans to “take it easy.” The slackers believe .#ItWillWorkOut. whenever they happen to be ready, reports the Tylt, a social polling and opinion platform that focuses on millennials.

Not ironically. Most jobs become available in the spring because of corporate bookkeeping. April is a major filing deadline for businesses as well as you. Tax seasons are loosely quarterly but spring is special because seasonal industries like construction & tourism come out of winter hibernation at about the same time. Employers tend to delay hiring until they know what the year’s budget and workload will be. If you don’t find a job quickly at graduation then there’s commonly a secondary hiring spike around October/November, again a bookkeeping thing more than a Christmas thing, but otherwise why not be a ski bum for a winter?

So it’s up to you, grad. Have your choice of jobs now, or choose from the leftovers later.

If you can get work in your selected field then great. But you probably can’t right away so the best option is finding low-level work that relates to what you want to do. Temp agencies if you’re the accounting type, deliveryman if you want fieldwork, private security or lifeguard if you’re inclined towards the public sector and so on. This is the best way to overcome “needing experience to get experience”.

It also helps to know where your major can take you. A recent study by LinkedIn reveals that your college major may qualify you for jobs you didn’t consider. People with degrees in marketing often get hired as recruiters. Communications majors can end up in marketing and production roles. Psychology majors win entry-level jobs as research assistants, administrative assistants and case managers. .Think outside the classroom,. says Blair Decembrele, LinkedIn’s career expert.

This is code for “if you majored in communications, marketing or psychology then you’re screwed and better take any job you can get”. Which is true but even so, you should try to get a job in what your degree is because that’s why you got it in the first place and it gives you a leg up on the competition; probably your only leg up when starting out.

Experts have one tip for all job seekers: Don’t spend more than 20 percent of your time applying for jobs on Internet job sites . 80 percent of us get jobs through someone we know.

Then the Baby Boomers decided to hire third-world wage slaves instead of their own sons and here we are, in a land where 80 percent of us get jobs though social media. Get with the Nineties already, you “industry experts”.

If your parents/uncle give you your first job then I’m happy for you. If that isn’t you then you’re reading this article and Craigslist is your friend. Most employers don’t want to make a huge production out of hiring. Half a dozen resumes per position is good for most companies and Craigslist is the oldest, most local and most accessible jobsite for the average employer.

Shopping yourself in-person to every company in an area is only awkward. If they have a opening then it’s probably on the Internet. Human Resources will not keep your application on file.

Personal story: When I was young and hungry, I went to several megacorp-sponsored job fairs. Got to talking with the next guy at an aerospace one. He told me that most of the guys waiting in line to talk to the recruiter were former employees here to be rehired. Aerospace is project-oriented work so the executives’ habit was firing everybody when a job was completed or product line shut down. The workers (including high-level engineers) went en masse to other companies for another specific job, got fired again, and eventually came back to their original employer to be rehired and used for another cycle. When you see a large company offering a huge number of jobs, this may be what’s going on… in which case, your only way in is to be invited in. I’ve no idea how a new kid does that.

Employers also value soft skills almost as much as hard skills, says millennial employment expert Bruce Tulgan, author of “Bridging the Soft Skills Gap: How to Teach the Missing Basics to Today’s Young Talent. (Wiley). Teamwork tops the list. Tulgan suggests pulling an example from real life, showing that you understand your place and how you contribute to the team. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, he says.

This is code-talk for Diversity Hiring. Hard skills is what white men have (along with some Asians & Latinos). It’s illegal for an employer to discriminate but they’re rewarded by the gov’t if they do. If you’re a one-armed nigress named La’Keeshu then by all means, add a picture of yourself to your resume so the recruiter will know you check three Diversity boxes. Excuse me, “soft skills”.

If you’re white & male then you can still put a pic on a resume. If they’re going to discriminate against you then it’ll save you the effort of a meatspace interview. I like to see a picture myself because I screen for visible tattoos, weird piercings, problem glasses, strange haircuts, androgyny and spaghetti arms. Many employers do that but even more are uncomfortable judging by appearances.

…Aside from being racist against white male Christians. (I might be biased from living in California.) I regret to say that racism is a thing in hiring these days. Everybody will do it and nobody will talk about it. There’s a lot about hiring that nobody will talk about so treat it like a numbers game.

If you’re going to take time off, don’t stay idle too long, says Dan Schawbel, a millennial workplace expert and the author of the forthcoming “Back to Human: How Great Leaders Create Connection in the Age of Isolation. (Da Capo, out in November). .Corporations tend to hire people who are passionate about their work,. he says.

Speaking for Silicon Valley, corporations hire slaves who know to stay on the plantation… that’s the ‘passionate’ part. Myself, I don’t mind employment gaps so long as the gap wasn’t spent sponging on worker’s comp or other welfare for the obvious reason that I don’t want to pay for your next “gap”.

Realistically, so long as you do good work while on the clock then most employers won’t give a care about enthusiasm. Passionate about your work, come on, most of us don’t work dream jobs. On-time and good attitude, the box is checked, so keep a good attitude doing those McJobs while looking for your break. Trust me, it’s an enduring life skill.

So if you can’t find a job right away, learn a useful skill that you can teach yourself, pick up from a friend, or learn via a free or reasonably priced course online.

Schawbel suggests something that’s high in demand like computer programming, social media, Web site development or even artificial intelligence if you’re really ambitious. Once you are done, find a freelance job using the skill.

He doesn’t know what life is like outside the tech sector. Don’t constantly train for new skills. Do yourself a favor and work fun gigs if your search stalls. You’re young, you can take time off from job hunting to be a rafting guide or something. Never forget to enjoy your life the best you reasonably can.

Sending a thank-you e-mail within 12 hours [of the interview] is my top recommendation,. says Wessel. If you want to really impress your prospective employer, she suggests hand delivering a written note the next day. .Don’t worry about coming off as too desperate . you’re a recent grad, and they know you want the job,. she says.

Shrug, I’ve never heard of a manager refusing to hire someone because they didn’t say thank you. I’m not doing you a favor by interviewing you; it’s in my own best interest and I won’t forget your existence, either, until I make a hiring decision. For my part, I won’t send you an apology for not hiring you because honesty would cause me trouble. Thin-skinned morons can’t handle rejection but they can sue quite easily.

The competition for jobs in a densely populated area like New York can be tough. .If possible, try not to be too picky about where you work from a location perspective,. says Wessel. .Lots of great companies are hiring in locations you may never expect, and sometimes, you just need to enter the door in that location, work your way up, and then after a year or two, you can likely make the argument for moving to an office that you.d rather be in..

This dumbass doesn’t know it’s raining outside. “Don’t be afraid to relocate to get your first job even if you have to leave NYC”… who is this Wessel? WayUp CEO Liz Wessel… hmm… damn, she’s my next blog post. Let’s just say that men can’t “work your way up” the way she did.

So, new grads, spend a month or two finding work in your expertise if you can. If not then find a temporary job to pay the bills and build a somewhat-related work history as you settle in for the long haul of today’s employment market for natural-born male citizens. Live clean, keep fit, watch the boards, don’t stress about being the Best Candidate Ever and don’t put your life on hold while you search. And stay out of debt. Debt is slavery.

 

 

A Self-Destructing Alpha

For the funny files.

A Marin County rape suspect told a judge Thursday that he would not have committed such a crime because .I.m a good-looking guy. and the accuser “is 300 pounds, no exaggeration..

Izell Lewis, 26, of San Rafael, also denied the allegations in a separate case in which he is charged with exposing himself to an Uber driver and masturbating in front of her. That allegedly occurred while he was free on bail in the rape case.

Lewis, a competitive boxer and fitness trainer, made the comments after a lengthy day of court proceedings in which he asserted his constitutional right to be his own lawyer.

Judge Andrew Sweet consented reluctantly after vetting Lewis. comprehension of his actions.

.This is a terrible idea,. Sweet said.

http://www.marinij.com/general-news/20180412/marin-rape-suspects-defense-accuser-is-300-pounds

Izell Lewis. (IJ photo/2016)

Izell Lewis

Gotta agree with the judge on this one, although an “I’m a small guy and she’s 300 pounds, who forced who upon whom?” defense is worth exploring. Presuming innocence until conviction is hard when one is charged with indecent exposure while on parole for rape after firing his lawyer to make an “I’m too sexy to dumpster dive” defense.

The lawyer had just completed the legwork on invalidating the evidence’s search warrant.

They say that hypergamy encourages women to breed with the genetic fittest of men. But who would have guessed that the genetic fittest of men are overwhelmingly convicted felons and gymbros? Meanwhile, Izell is living proof that being Alpha doesn’t mean you have a future.

 

Child $upport

I visited Monterey last week to see “Weird Al” Yankovic perform live. It was a fun night and Weird Al wasn’t nearly as fat as I’d feared he might be. (To get that joke, look up “weird al fat” on youTube for the music video.) I made an evening of it, of course, and while wandering the streets I saw this billboard. I took the picture myself and swear it isn’t Photoshopped.

child sup

The Monterey County Dept. of Child Support Services literally spelled it “Child $upport”. In public. On an advertising billboard.

 

Assemblyman Phil Ting Is A Slaver

This 21st Century headline via Instapundit reveals that Phil Ting of the California Assembly is exploring a new kind of slavery for the people of California: workplace threatpoint.

http://www.theblaze.com/news/2018/05/23/california-lawmakers-vote-to-expand-gun-restraining-orders-but-aclu-says-bill-goes-too-far

California, and a handful of other states, have laws that allow family members, roommates, and law enforcement to request a restraining order to remove firearms from an individual who has shown signs of dangerous behavior.

On Monday, according to KOVR-TV, California lawmakers voted in favor of a bill expanding that power to employers, co-workers and school personnel.

But the American Civil Liberties Union, rarely a conservative ally, says the bill goes too far, and joined some California Republicans in expressing concern over the measure.

The ACLU said in a statement that measures restricting those with mental health issues from buying or owning a gun “are too often not evidence-based, reinforce negative stereotypes, and raise significant equal protection, due process, and privacy issues..

…The bill passed the state Assembly 48-25, and will now head to the Senate.

This doesn’t make the ACLU our friend, or course. But when one of the most converged organizations in North America thinks you’re too converged, it’s obviously time to stop and get professional help.

Democratic Assemblyman Phil Ting, who sponsored the bill, said the expansion is necessary to cover adults who don’t have connections with family and who live alone.

.Once you move away from home and you’re an adult, you may not spend time with your family,. Ting told the Huffington Post. .You may not have much interaction with law enforcement, but chances are if you’re working, you see your co-workers every day for eight-plus hours a day, and you’re with them not just in the work environment but socially..

He definitely puts the “commune” in Communist, wanting everybody to spy on everybody and inform on them to the State. Orwellian to the ninth degree, or should we say, the ninth circle. This is two different kinds of slavery combined: disarmament and presumption of guilt. It’s the same thing as what Dalrock calls “threatpoint” in marriage. It’s not that your wife is actively destroying you, it’s that she can do it anytime for any reason and you have no defense if she does. It’s proven to be very effective for controlling behavior. Ting is giving your coworkers similar authority to screw you if you’re the “wrong” kind of person. The “gun-owning” kind of person.

I perused Ting’s official website for a couple bonus chestnuts of iniquity.

http://a19.asmdc.org/

Ting on May 11: “With May [Revised budget] revenues higher than expected, our economy and job market are clearly healthy. In these times of prosperity, we need to make sure we bring all Californians along for the ride.

Ting on May 9: “A record number of hard working individuals and families — over 1.2 million — have already claimed their earned CA Earned Income Tax Credit (CalEITC), an effective anti-poverty program in the state with the highest poverty rate in the nation. These numbers have tripled from last year and are expected to continue to rise given the credit can be claimed after tax day through the end of the year.

It took 48 hours for Ting to go from “record participation in an anti-poverty program in the state with the highest poverty rate in the nation” to “our economy and job market are clearly healthy”. The guy is a shameless tax-and-spender.

Next, “San Francisco Rabbi Honored During Holocaust Remembrance Week” on April 16:

Assemblymember Phil Ting and Rabbi Carla Fenves During the Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony

Assemblymember Phil Ting honored Rabbi Carla Fenves during the California State Assembly’s annual recognition of Holocaust Remembrance Week. She is the granddaughter of two Holocaust survivors, Ervin and Vera Fenves of Hungary. During World War II, Vera survived by hiding in the kitchen of a righteous gentile family’s restaurant.

“Righteous gentile” means “Christian”, not that either of these people would care to admit or reward that. Is even Judaism suffering female leadership now? A pedoface giving a “your grandparents’ achievement” award to a man-jawed witch seems so appropriate in Current Year.

 

Now Santa Clarita!

Santa Clarita is the first city in Los Angeles County to support Trump’s lawsuit. I should make a map.

“After six hours of debate, with heated discussion on both sides . until 1 a.m. . the Santa Clarita City Council voted unanimously to formally oppose SB 54, the “Sanctuary State” law.”

http://www.hometownstation.com/santa-clarita-news/politics/santa-clarita-city-council-votes-to-oppose-sanctuary-state-law-232750

All five council members approved a motion to draft a brief in support of the federal government’s lawsuit against the state of California for Senate Bill 54, the California Values Act, commonly known as the “sanctuary” law during their May 8 meeting.

…The United States is seeking a preliminary injunction that would prohibit enforcement of the new laws while the case is pending. The hearing on the preliminary injunction is currently set for June 20.

The deadline for filing a brief in opposition to the federal lawsuit is May 18, but the deadline to show support for lawsuit has passed, according to court documents.

Mr. Trump, why are you wasting time on this lawsuit? Arrest the traitors and child rapists in Sacramento already. At the rate you’re going, you won’t get anything done before reelection time. Don’t drain the swamp. Burn it.

 

Now Carlsbad

Carlsbad, CA joins the White House’s lawsuit against California’s treason against border security.

http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Carlsbad-City-Council-Votes-to-Support-trump-Administration-Lawsuit-Targeting-States-Sanctuary-Laws-483292561.html

Carlsbad has just become the latest city to revolt against California’s so-called “sanctuary state” laws.

In a special meeting Monday night [GQ: May 21, 2018], council members voted 4 to 1 to support the Trump Administration’s lawsuit against the California Values Act. Councilmember Cori Schumacher was the dissenting vote.

…Councilwoman Cori Schumacher noted there are dozens of misdemeanors and felony criminal acts that allow local and federal agencies to communicate.

This is becoming a common pattern. Illegal immigrants are afraid to cooperate with police because they afraid of being arrested & deported for being illegal immigrants. Criminals won’t be good citizens so long as they’re treated like criminals. Never mind that criminals, by definition, have already chosen to not be good citizens.

Carlsbad will have to wait until a pending case reaches the appellate level to join the federal government’s lawsuit. That could take at least a year.

In the meantime, within the next month, the council is scheduled to approve a resolution supporting the federal government’s lawsuit.

The San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted to join the lawsuit in April, and the San Diego City Council voted last week to join an amicus brief opposing the Trump administration’s lawsuit.

Ah, both city & county of San Diego are now on board.

Christianity Today Hates Your Guns

God will let you own guns but not use them. That is the official position of Christianity Today magazine according to Editor-in-Chief Mark Galli. (Posted May 18)

http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2018/june/god-hates-gun-violence.html

Violence enters the human story from nearly the beginning: .While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him. (Gen. 4:8).

The Genesis narrative notes that violence soon becomes endemic. In a mere two chapters, we read, .Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence. (Gen. 6:11). And “God said to Noah, .I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth. . (Gen. 6:13).

God hates violence. We see that especially in the prophets.

Ezekiel: .He [God] said to me, .Have you seen this, son of man? Is it a trivial matter for the people of Judah to do the detestable things they are doing here? Must they also fill the land with violence and continually arouse my anger?. . (8:17).

Hosea: .Ephraim feeds on the wind; he pursues the east wind all day and multiplies lies and violence. (12:1).

Obadiah: “Because of the violence against your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame; you will be destroyed forever. (v. 10).

If the Bible is to be trusted, violence is cause for divine destruction of the people who practice and countenance it.

So, God gets a violence pass?

Notice Galli jumped straight from Cain to Ezekiel, bypassing the Patriarchs, the entire Mosaic Law and all the history books of the OT. Remember how Abraham used his private army to rescue Lot from an alliance of four kings in Genesis 14:14-16? Remember all those mandated death penalties in Leviticus? Remember when God let His people be butchered because they didn’t exterminate even the valuables of Jericho in Joshua 7? Remember King “Man of Blood” David, the first person in recorded history to command “slay the witnesses” in 1 Samuel 27:11?

How about Jesus of Nazareth, the carpenter whose only recorded construction was a whip for the backsides of nonviolent moneychangers?

Mark Galli, you are a lying sack of shit and a false Christian. You’ve no excuse to be this stupid about Scripture. But now things get interesting: your magazine take a political position of significance.

Americans might take note. It nearly goes without saying the United States is a violent culture. Yes, places like El Salvador, Honduras, Venezuela, and Jamaica have much higher per capita murder rates. But compare the United States with other high-income countries, and we see this: According to 2010 data from the World Health Organization, gun homicide rates range from 0 (UK) to 3 (Finland) deaths per million. No country comes anywhere close to the US rate of 36.

Once nice thing about cuckservatives, they love to undermine their own arguments. America is violent!.. but not as murderous as these other places… but if you only look at firearm homicide then the UN thinks we’re awful. Shrug, okay. I can live with that.

By the way, UK gun homicide may be nil but their knife/stick homicide rate is so high that they’re doing police raids on hardware stores. And dare I mention their lorry homicide rate? Why is Galli singling out firearms as “the” source of violence?

When it comes to countries with the most mass shootings between 1966 and 2012, among other developed nations, France experienced 10, Russia had 15, and the Philippines had 18. The US? 90.

90 seems low. It can’t even cover the Seventies, what with all those Communists on shooting-bombing sprees. I think Galli is cherrypicking his violence stats too tightly. America is much more violent than he’s letting on.

But the violence isn’t coming from law-abiding gun owners.

…Then again, when assault weapons were banned in the US between 1994 and 2004, it had little effect on gun crime overall (to be clear, only 2 percent of gun crimes before the ban involved assault weapons). If the ban contributed to a decrease in mass shootings, the rates were minor.

Again, Galli undermines his own (imminent) call for gun banning. This begs the question, why were liberals keen on banning such a contextually insignificant class of firearm? Because they want to ban all firearms and MILITARY ASSAULT WEAPONS! tugged on Soccer Mom’s heartstrings enough to set the needed precedents.

“Here.s how CT views the issue: Owning guns is legitimate, and guns have reasonable recreational uses, including sport shooting and hunting. But guns are one of many potentially dangerous items of everyday life.like driving, like making fires, like flying. To make society safer, we regulate such activities.”

CT is dead wrong. The reason we have private firearm ownership is so we can kill and replace the government when it becomes a threat to us. This is not my opinion. It is the Founders’ opinion, the Founders who wrote the Second Amendment after fighting off a government that had become a threat to us… with privately owned firearms. Nobody ever organized a militia to fight ducks.

Counter to arguments from the National Rifle Association, to regulate rights does not restrict freedom but actually makes it possible.

BULLSHIT! YOU ARE TEN POUNDS OF BULLSHIT IN A FIVE-POUND BAG!

We Christians, for example, champion the right to practice religion freely while gladly submitting to building and zoning codes, noise laws, and many other “restrictions” for the sake of community harmony.

You also gladly submit to IRS regulation 501c3 which directly restricts your religious freedom for the sake of government harmony. From CT’s website:

“? 2018 Christianity Today – a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.”

501c3 makes religious freedom profitable… er, possible… for you… ah, I see how you get ‘restricting freedom makes freedom possible’.

So while we support the legitimacy of owning guns, given the violence of our land and God’s hatred of violence, we also see a need to regulate the purchase and use of guns. In particular, we Christians should work to ban weapons whose main purpose is to kill a lot of people very quickly [GQ: killing faster is the purpose of every weapon], to keep guns in general out of the hands of unstable personalities [GQ: dissidents, historically speaking], and to ensure that everyone who buys and owns guns can demonstrate they know how to use and store them safely [GQ: because gun safes are so damn complicated].

Will this alone eliminate American violence? Hardly. The problem runs too deeply in our veins as descendants of Cain.

AGAIN, you undermine your own argument. You admit your ideas won’t work even if you get everything you asked for. Do even you believe what you say? I weep to imagine that there is a single devout Christian on the planet who is so ignorant of Scripture and history that he cannot recognize you as a Marxist slaver. But there you are, editor-in-chief of a major Christian newsmagazine. Perhaps you’re a better liar than I give you credit for, Mr. Galli.

But you are no Christian. Disarming the innocent and lying about God’s Word are not the paths of Christ.

Spread the word: Christianity Today hates your guns.

 

Sex Sells Marriage

Lurking on fabiusmaximus.com, I encountered a double miss in the comments of “The Sexbots are coming. But we won’t prepare for them”

http://fabiusmaximus.com/2018/05/13/sexbots-are-coming/

A better question that no one asks is why? Why would a healthy man even consider a sexbot / AI. That is the question people should ask. The answer is The trailer for “Her” is spot on. I have always said it isn’t about sex, it is the companionship and love that men don’t get from women. I would buy that today.

In addition, the feminists may stop the robot, but cant stop a non sexual computer program. Yes once the AI or AI and robot come out women will be left alone (apparently just like they want).

As for women adopting them I doubt it. The AI, maybe. But why spend $10K on a robot that works as well as a $50 vibrator?

Larry Kummer, Editor

Sven, .A better question that no one asks is why?.

You must be kidding. That’s an often asked question, and probably has been for millennia. Why do men masturbate, use port, use prostitutes (i.e., quicky in an ally or car, 15 minutes in a brothel). I don’t know what the answer is. It doesn’t matter for the subject of this post. These drives exist. Modern feminism appears to be increasingly locking out a large segment of men (see yesterday’s post). Sexbots provide an alternative.

Strike #1: Men don’t get sexbots and related sex toys for companionship, Sven. They get sex toys for sex. But Sven is right that mainstream society should ask why sex simulators are preferred to real women.

Strike #2: Larry pretends to not know the answer to why men seek out sex alternatives and claims it doesn’t matter… in a post dedicated to men choosing to use robots as a sex alternative.

Men get married for easy, plentiful, cheap, no-STD sex with a dedicated chick. Full stop. That is his reward for putting up with female drama & expenses, not “respectability”, “companionship” or God help us, “profitability”.

Sex sells marriage. In fact, sex can sell anything; ask an advertiser. That’s how strong an urge it is. But Tradcons and feminists alike insist then men don’t really want sex. We want “family” or “comfort” or “approval”. In reality, the only men who get married hoping for a cold bed are the ones who’ve sublimated their normal desires into religious worship of muh’Lady. That’s unhealthy if you’re atheist and blasphemy if you’re devout.

Men never get married hoping that after a long day’s work, he’ll come home to a cold wife who respects him for being a good wallet. He knows the day will come when he can’t make fat bank… and meanwhile, he has a sex drive. What is he supposed to do about that?

If one wants happier marriages and higher birth rates then he should pressure wives to put out for their husbands and train daughters to expect & do that once they get married. For the love of Dick, why is this hard? And the Christian Tradcons have even less excuse; God’s own opinion is that the only good reason for marriage is “better that then burning with lust”. So make it a good outlet for lust already!

It is fascinating, the extent to which this world hates unattractive men. Solutions to our social problems are obvious and easy yet Elites and women would rather live miserable & die than reward Ernie Engineer for keeping the lights on.

Alt-Hero #1 Review

Issue #1 of Alt-Hero just broke and as a backer, I got mine. Thirty colored pages. The artwork was fairly simple but I like simple; I’ve read comics with so much artistic effort that my brain couldn’t assemble the images. (Specifically, Infinity: Outrage, a manga that probably won’t see life outside the wargamer community.) So long as the artwork successfully carries the story, I’m happy, and that’s the case here.

The plot concerns the forcible recruitment of Dynamique, a hot, sexy lingerie model into a UN-sponsored superhero team. Thirty pages wasn’t enough to both introduce the characters and run a plot; Vox Day chose to focus exclusively on plot, which is the sensible choice in the long run, but for now the characters are little more than cardboard props with poorly-defined powers & personalities. We don’t know Dynamique’s background but the very first page has her singlehandedly fighting off a sniper ambush, which is a curious competency for a clothing model even if she is ‘powered’. There isn’t enough material yet for me to say more.

My one real criticism is that Dynamique doesn’t act like a woman. She’s openly and repeatedly confrontational with authority figures, specifically team leader Captain Europa who subdues her after she effortlessly fights out of the opening ambush. Either Dynamique is a very badly spoiled rich girl or she would be much less certain of herself after being suddenly abducted and then informed of special legal restrictions pertaining to superpowered persons. Instead of being either bitchy or submissive, Dynamique is a hard-boiled noir detective with 42-24-36 measurements. Complete with a two-pack-a-day habit.

Does anybody still think smoking is sexy?

The comic is well-executed with solid production values but I wonder if it will be able to reach mainstream consumers. The typical young male comic reader has no representation in this issue. All of the superheroes are well-paid, highly talented professionals who in this issue are little more than State bullies. I think this is deliberate and VD is telling a story along the lines of the video game Deus Ex, but the protagonist Dynamique isn’t going to get men into the story. Most of the famous old-school superheroes were ordinary men with a supernatural ability and exceptions like Iron Man & Batman had humanizing flaws that allowed the reader to vicariously live through the hero they most identified with. I doubt most boys will be able to identify with a female hero that does lingerie shoots between action scenes. Even if they do drool over her.

It’s a decent standalone comic but it fails as a counterpoint to the Convergence of Marvel/DC. Dynamique might as well have been named Rey. She’s effortlessly competent, hot 10 sexy and can face down experienced leaders of elite paramilitary organizations without hesitation on her first day on the job. Sometimes I wonder about Vox Day. One the one hand, he clearly opposes feminism; on the other hand, a second-wave feminist would happily read this comic.

 

Don’t Go There

From an commentary exchange on

http://dalrock.wordpress.com/2018/05/11/the-cowards-way-out/

We begin with a blood-boiling excerpt of National Review’s Kevin Williamson on the plight of impoverished rural whites:

If you spend time in hardscrabble, white upstate New York, or eastern Kentucky, or my own native West Texas, and you take an honest look at the welfare dependency, the drug and alcohol addiction, the family anarchy . which is to say, the whelping of human children with all the respect and wisdom of a stray dog . you will come to an awful realization. It wasn.t Beijing. It wasn’t even Washington, as bad as Washington can be. It wasn’t immigrants from Mexico, excessive and problematic as our current immigration levels are. It wasn’t any of that.

Nothing happened to them. There wasn’t some awful disaster. There wasn’t a war or a famine or a plague or a foreign occupation. Even the economic changes of the past few decades do very little to explain the dysfunction and negligence . and the incomprehensible malice . of poor white America. So the gypsum business in Garbutt ain’t what it used to be. There is more to life in the 21st century than wallboard and cheap sentimentality about how the Man closed the factories down.

The truth about these dysfunctional, downscale communities is that they deserve to die. Economically, they are negative assets. Morally, they are indefensible. Forget all your cheap theatrical Bruce Springsteen crap. Forget your sanctimony about struggling Rust Belt factory towns and your conspiracy theories about the wily Orientals stealing our jobs. Forget your goddamned gypsum, and, if he has a problem with that, forget Ed Burke, too. The white American underclass is in thrall to a vicious, selfish culture whose main products are misery and used heroin needles. Donald Trump’s speeches make them feel good. So does OxyContin. What they need isn’t analgesics, literal or political. They need real opportunity, which means that they need real change, which means that they need U-Haul.

Novaseeker proceeded to support him: On Williamson he wasn’t saying he wants whites to die, he was saying he wants whites in downscale blighted communities to leave them and go to parts of the country where there are more opportunities for them, and a less dysfunctional local culture. This is not necessarily bad advice from a life perspective for people from such places. Of course, it does mean that such places “die off., but that’s happening now anyway, just with more dysfunction and suffering than if the people who are born there leave for greener pastures.

Me: What parts of the country offering opportunity? Can you name a few?

Novaseeker: That.s easy. The places in the country where white folks from the upper midwest and industrial northeast, as well as rural areas, have been moving to for the past few decades . mostly growing metros in the southern tier: Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Austin, Nashville, Charlotte to name a few, never mind coastal metros that have had huge influxes of whites in the same period like the DC. I am sure there are other areas I am not thinking of, but these places aren’t hiding, and it’s no mystery that the boom in population they are seeing is largely due to internal migration from older industrial areas as well as more rural ones. What Williamson is saying is: leave the blighted industrial and rural areas and go to one of the places that is booming with growth and development.

That is the globalist agenda and Novaseeker is hardly the only voice in the Manosphere to commit this snub. I don’t mean mistake; I mean, it is arrogant to tell people with no options that they should abandon their homes and go live in the cities where the jobs are.

First off, poor whites aren’t just whining. As I said in the linked article, First the Elites imported 30 million low-class Dindus in a single generation, then they exported every factory they could to China, now they fault low-class whites for complaining they don’t have jobs anymore while pushing mass-transit projects that would make even fast food joints at exits off the Interstate unprofitable.

We are not talking about the local mine being played out or lazy workers not following the factory to its new location in Pittsburgh (or today, in Pakistan!). The Elites are waging white genocide. They are starving out the white poor.

Additionally, the Elites want to centralize the population for ease of control. The advice to “just uproot yourself and go live in the cities” plays directly into this. It’s not a coincidence that all the economic growth just happens to be in metro areas. This is by legislative design.

Putting aside the globalist agenda, why the hell are Manospherians recommending people move to areas where they themselves don’t live? Novaseeker is in DC and tells poor people they should go to Texas and Georgia. He literally does not know what he’s talking about. I do not tell people where they should live except when I have personal experience there. Demographics and statistics do not define a neighborhood. The behavior of a roomful of legislators in the capitol does not determine what your neighbor will be like. I found a pleasant place in Commiefornia and the pundits would say that’s impossible because the governor 200 miles away is a jackass.

Speaking of personal experience, I actually followed that advice. Twenty years ago and unemployed, I went all-in and moved to the Denver area to find work. (Colorado was solidly Red-state then and I could tell where California was headed.) The effort coincided with one of the recessions preceding the Second Depression. My money ran out after a year of not even landing a burger job… just one contract gig that didn’t last… and if my parents back in Cali hadn’t kept my bedroom free, I would’ve been FUBAR.

I was “wealthy” enough to have family that could take me in. Not all poor men have that option. “Listen, Pa, San Antonio isn’t working out. At all. Can you float me bus money back to upstate New York? No? You were actually thinking of selling out and joining me? No, don’t join me… I’ll find something.” Poor people have to think about such possibilities before loading up the car and driving 1,000 miles to a place that statistics and pundits say is a sure thing. Statistics and pundits don’t lie, right? Unskilled labor is highly paid there, right? Apprenticeships galore?

You think my story is unique? There’s a documentary “The Overnighters” you should watch about poor men who followed everybody’s advice to the oilfields.

You think the rural poor should relocate to follow work? Then how about you open your garage for their use as a crash pad so they have a reliable place & contact to get started in an unfamiliar area? Would it kill wealthier whites to care enough about their lesser brothers to lend a hand along with the dismissive advice? I accept it’s difficult to identify trustworthy people so far away from you… but now you see the problem. You don’t know how the other half lives or even who the other half is. They don’t either.

Lastly, all of North America is going down. It’s completely feminized. It’s completely buried in debt. Completely Godless. Completely vulnerable to Dindu colonization. Everybody hates Californian expats because it’s easier to blame those who reached the feminist destination than themselves still making the journey. If your women vote then you’re next to suffer our fate. It’s that simple.

Maybe the poor of Appalachia are better off digging in and going off the grid than waging their meager savings on an all-or-nothing shot into urban Leftoid strongholds. That’s not for me to say. It’s for them to consider but I won’t let them be buffaloed into a rash decision by people with uninformed opinions.

 

Circling The Convergence Drain

A good quote from Devon35 on Dalrock’s blog got me thinking.

“Mainstream writers aren’t going to talk to incels or anyone outside their little circle. That’s why they were so surprised when Trump won. The US has the laziest worst journalists (if they can be called journalists) anywhere and they wonder why they aren’t trusted.”

The truth is simultaneously worse and funnier. As we know, Convergence/Social Justice requires total, blind loyalty to the Narrative. Journalists are at the forefront of this effort and thus spend their time forcing samethink among their peers and repeating the Narrative.

But here’s the rub. Computers are much better repeaters than humans. Also much cheaper and even less capable of remembering that we weren’t always at war with Eurasia.

Result? Journalists are compelled by their fanaticism to destroy their own jobs. They won’t deviate from the script but computers are unable to deviate. News editors try to be naught but mouthpieces for the Anointed Ones but are still more free-willed than silicon chips.

A game I play while traveling is to look at the local newspapers side-by-side with the national papers at the grocery or wherever. It’s funny how the headlines are often identical. Being exactly like your competitors is an obviously bad business model yet it’s also the goal of Convergence.

Then there’s the fundraisers I see on occasion. Nothing warms my twisted, bitter heart than watching a radio station solicit charity because nobody wants to buy their product. “By supporting local radio, you keep us available to report when major disasters take out your Internet connection!” I couldn’t find a current fundraiser for an example but this ongoing solicitation is typical:

http://www.scpr.org/support

YOU are KPCC.s largest and most reliable source of funding. KPCC brings you comprehensive, unbiased coverage because listeners like you have shown their support. When you become a monthly Sustainer, you’re also ensuring the future success of 89.3 KPCC, 89.1 KUOR and 90.3 KVLA. Contribute today.

KPCC, Southern California Public Radio is a registered 501 (c) (3) charitable organization.

EIN / Federal Tax ID: 95-4765734

Hey, they’re 501c3 just like my church! Are they a religion, too? What’s next, “Become a monthly Sustainer of Dick’s Sporting Goods, a 501c3 charitable organization! We bring you comprehensive, unbiased sporting knickknacks that are totally incapable of harming spotted owls, fish and Guatemalan drug cartels!”

Journalists are an unhappy bunch these days. By the time they purge themselves of independent thought, cease to keep the public informed about anything important and become Kool-Aid drinkers of Associated Press & Reuters, people can save a buck by going straight to the press feeds themselves. We’re missing naught but comics, coupons and obituaries.

Or better yet, we go on the Internet and talk to the people who are on the spot of breaking news. Computers are great repeaters; they can give a single man a global voice. Which is simultaneously what journalists fear and work furiously to achieve.

Journalists could justify their continued employment by doing in-depth research, tracking important trends and the other stuff I do for free on my blog. Last time I tried to read the local paper was when California’s drought was forcing major water policy issues. I didn’t know who the players were, who was proposing what solution for whatever reason, how funding was going to magically appear or how endangered species I’d never heard of or cared about would be affected. Instead, the typical story on water issues was “Larry of Q Agency made a proposal to amend proposal document 2363377-ZD. Susan of WY-Corp disapproved”. The only thing I learned from that story was that a certain local reporter must play a lot of “Fruit Ninja” on her slutphone during conferences.

The Convergence eats it own because once all diversity of thought is gone, once all curiosity is dead, once all information is sourced exclusively from the Lizard Queen’s throne, there’s no reason to have humans involved in what is already a mindless, automated process.

Journalists aren’t lazy. They are required by their chosen religion to extinct themselves. I like God’s sense of humor.

 

Suck It, Dick!

Last month, I covered the convergence and sellout of Dick’s Sporting Goods to Social Justice. Pleased I am to report that Dick’s is now Screwed.

https://gunnerq.androsphere.net/2018/02/28/dicks-sporting-goods-supports-2nd-amendment-by-refusing-to-sell-guns/

Hat tip to Instapundit for getting this train rolling.

http://pjmedia.com/trending/gun-manufacturers-fire-back-at-dicks-sporting-goods-halt-sales/

[Dick’s Sporting Goods] made some news last month when they first pulled from their shelves, and then destroyed, what they characterized as “assault-style” guns in their inventory.

That stunt followed their statement earlier this year at the time that they pulled the guns from the shelves that they were “committed” to several new gun control objectives. …

Now it has come out that the corporation hired D.C. lobbyists to push for stricter gun control legislation. Consequently, and rather reasonably, O.F. Mossberg & Sons Inc., the company that owns Mossberg guns, announced on Wednesday they would no longer be selling their products to the chain.

Click to access Mossberg-Terminates-Relationship-With-Dicks-Sporting-Goods.pdf 

Effective immediately, O.F. Mossberg & Sons will not accept any future orders from Dick’s Sporting Goods or Field & Stream, and is in the process of evaluating current contractual agreements.

.It has come to our attention that Dick’s Sporting Goods recently hired lobbyists on Capitol Hill to promote additional gun control.. said Iver Mossberg, Chief Executive Officer of O.F. Mossberg & Sons. .Make no mistake, Mossberg is a staunch supporter of the U.S. Constitution and our Second Amendment rights, and we fully disagree with Dick’s Sporting Goods. recent anti-Second Amendment actions..

Consumers are urged to visit one of the thousands of pro-Second Amendment firearm retailers to make their purchases of Mossberg and Maverick? firearms. Firearm retailers can be found through the Mossberg Dealer Locator….

Meanwhile, from http://www.ammoland.com/2018/05/mks-supply-hi-point-firearms-inland-mfg-refuse-dicks-sporting-goods

MKS Supply, LLC, exclusive marketer for American-made Hi-Point Firearms and Inland Manufacturing, values the customers that it proudly serves and the God-given freedoms that they enjoy. Because the right to keep and bear arms was recognized by our founding fathers to be a fundamental right, they ensured its protection under the Second Amendment.

Just as we show our commitment to our customers by standing behind our products, we believe it is equally important to show our commitment to our customers by standing behind their Second Amendment rights.

In recent months, Dick’s Sporting Goods and its subsidiary, Field and Stream retail stores (unrelated to Field & Stream Magazine), have shown themselves, in our opinion, to be no friend of Americans. Second Amendment. …

Dick.s Sporting Goods and Field and Stream, in purportedly doing all of these things, have demonstrated that they do not share our values.

MKS Supply, Hi-Point Firearms and Inland Manufacturing are standing by the American people by refusing any further sales to Dick’s Sporting Goods & Field and Stream stores.

We are proud of our products, we are proud of our customers, and we are especially proud of the freedoms secured by our great U.S. Constitution. We are committed to all three.

http://www.racked.com/2018/5/10/17339690/dicks-sporting-goods-gun-control-debate

Springfield Armory, another gun manufacturer, also dropped Dick’s last week, writing on its Facebook page that the decision was because the retailer had hired lobbyists but also citing Dick’s decision to destroy the firearms it wasn’t selling and raise its gun-purchasing age.

Oh yes, in case you missed it, Dick’s destroyed its firearm inventory instead of merely returning it. I’m sure the stockholders & investors don’t care that the CEO destroyed good inventory because the alternative was exchanging them for money.

Trade and advocacy groups have already shown where they stand too. The National Rifle Association tweeted that Dick’s was “punishing law-abiding citizens.. …

Last week, the National Shooting Sports Foundation announced it would revoke Dick’s membership. In February, it said it was “disappointed” by Dick’s decision to stop selling assault-style weapons and raising the purchasing age to 21. This time around, it’s distancing itself completely from Dick’s because of “conduct detrimental to the best interests of the Foundation..

So many more guns to buy! Stack isn’t the salesman Obama was but props for trying. Speaking of the CEO, let’s hear his response.

http://money.cnn.com/2018/03/13/news/companies/dicks-sporting-goods-earnings/index.html

The CEO of Dick’s Sporting Goods said he’s forging ahead with his new gun sales policy, even though he expects to lose customers.

facepalm

“There’s going to be some pushback and we expected that,” said CEO Edward Stack, in an earnings call with Wall Street analysts. “There are going to be the people who don’t shop us anymore for anything.”

Following a mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Florida, last month, Stack announced that he would stop selling assault-style rifles, high capacity magazines and raise the minimum age to buy any gun from 18 to 21.

He said he made this decision after he learned that alleged shooter, Nikolas Cruz, 19, had bought a shotgun at one of his stores, though he didn’t use it at Parkland.

He won’t sell assault-style rifles because Nick Cruz didn’t buy one?

The company said its decision was met with support from customers, some of whom sent flowers and donuts to store employees.

Pro-tip #1: outdoorsmen don’t do gifts of flowers and donuts, gun-owners or otherwise. We tend to gift meat, if you know what I mean. Those are non-customer SJW activists celebrating your martyrdom for their benefit. Pro-tip #2: Your employees don’t want to be paid in flowers and donuts.

But on Tuesday, Stack said the decision is “not going to be positive from a traffic standpoint and a sales standpoint.”

Ya think? YA THINK? Didja ever think?

While the company said it had a quarterly increase of 7% in sales compared with last year, and a 4% rise in net income, same-store sales have been slumping and are expected to stay that way for another year, according to the company.

Stack said it was too early to measure the impact of the new gun policy on sales, but said it was “baked into” the full year guidance of $2.80 to $3 earnings per share.

The share price for Dick’s (DKS) was down 2% following the call.

My next post on the topic will be CEO Stack’s resignation. “I remain committed to the forcible disarmament of the unequal bourgeois gaijin gentile pigs living in the sticks,” he’ll say. “And thank you, stockholders, for my $50,000,000 severance check.”

 

STEMnation

The concept of focusing education upon STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) is a dangerously utilitarian approach to raising men. Michael Walsh on American Greatness has an interesting insight:

https://amgreatness.com/2018/04/19/the-fiery-angel-western-culture-and-its-discontents/

In Monday’s speech in the beautiful new Visitor Center, I located a signal change in the Western education system that, at the time, looked like an advance: the American reaction to the launch of Sputnik in 1957. Suddenly, America felt it was losing its technological edge over the Soviets so American schoolchildren became acquainted en masse with the wonders and joys of the slide rule and the hard sciences. The effect was immediate: we quickly regained and maintained our advantage over our antagonists, but it came with a price: the downgrading of the importance of the arts as a civilizing and ennobling force in American public (and private) life.

So while the emphasis on tech eventually resulted in the creation of the personal computer and the iPhone, it also reduced the literary and plastic arts from essential elements of nationhood to “entertainments” for the wealthy; triggered the coarsening of society and, worst of all, cut both America and, shortly thereafter, the Western European nations from the wellsprings of their shared patrimony. This may not entirely have been by design, but it was seized upon by the nascent philosophy of the Frankfurt School, which by this time had been transplanted from pre-Nazi Germany to Columbia University in Manhattan and quickly spread throughout the American system of higher education.

The result? To take just one example, the New York City public school system went from offering a model education in music and the arts to needing police officers in the schools.a reflection of the overall changes in demography, to be sure, but also of the decivilizing effect the loss of a democratized high culture entails. More Mozart, fewer metal detectors.

There’s nothing Western or American about math and science. Yes, we’re better at it than other nations but nothing about it is explicitly our culture the way Shakespeare or, well, Westerns are. It makes sense that abandoning the arts to focus on science was a bad decision in the context of the Soviet infiltration of USA. They easily twisted a culture that we had put on the shelf “for the moment”.

It isn’t an accident that the Marxists coined the phrase STEM while purging our history and humanity to the point of weaponizing children. Science is their religion because science tells us how to do anything without ever telling us if we should. In fact, the failure of science as its proponents embrace atheism is remarkable. Those who believe there is no objective truth have trouble describing how reality works? Heh.

What did you learn about courage in school or college? Probably nothing. What did you learn about morality? Don’t get caught. Self-discipline, foresight, kindness? Survival of the fittest. It’s our stories and legends that teach virtue and give us examples of good men (Marxists: Dead White Men!) to follow.

In true rebellious fashion, modern society has become little more than “There is no God; we must become Gods ourselves”. Morality is punished while mortal power & success is championed. The STEM nation reduces human life to logistics, utility and appetites. This is why I don’t believe China will be the winner of the 21st Century. Yes, they’re turning out lots of engineers & technicians. Yes, their atheist gov’t plays to win unhindered by compassion or honor. No, their “will to power” will not succeed… because God is real and still involved with humanity. They left that out of their calculations. A fatal mistake.

For the MGTOW, one of the benefits of unplugging from the rat race and “everything for muh children” lifestyle is that one is freed to enjoy the unproductive things of life such as literature and music. Not just the consumption of culture but the creation of it, too. Who we are is not a question likely to put food on your table… but your soul will wither without identity.

Remember your past, celebrate your ancestors’ achievements, read the Greats of philosophy & literature, seek to understand Christ instead of merely claiming membership in His Country Club. Cheap and effective and it even doubles as entertainment, because understanding who you are and acting as you should feels good. The only way history can be boring is if you have a bad teacher because they are us, only a couple steps removed.

The STEM nation is a road to Damnation. Don’t leave God out of your plans; don’t accept that it’s Current Year and the past is dead; and never neglect your soul just because the microscope can’t see happiness.

 

Why Whites Hate Whites

Amerika website has a post on a question I’ve pondered for many years. (Hat tip Sigma Frame.) This will be a fisking but not of my usual sarcastic type; there’s so much hit & miss that I need to untangle it and my own conclusions remain unsatisfactory.

http://www.amerika.org/politics/why-white-people-do-not-act-for-white-interests/

For years, white nationalists have pondered the question, .Why do whites not unite in our own interests?.

Part of the answer can be found in realizing that ethnic diversity is as destructive as racial diversity. People do not seek to unite with those who are not like themselves, even if a near-miss, because that, too, will be erasing themselves.

I can’t see this. White men hate their own children, hello Baby Boomers, and it’s hard to see an Irish marrying a German as being miscegenation on the level of a Japanese marrying a Hindu.

Also, this hasn’t been historically true. We certainly worked together to create the British Empire and the Roman Empire before that.

Rather, I think white man’s non-racist tendencies work against him. We lack that us-versus-them instinct that almost other races have, which is obviously a strong cohesive force.

Another answer is caste. White nationalism is a form of ethno-bolshevism, magically rebranding every white as equal, which is useful for caste-climbers but destructive to the hierarchy itself. The higher-IQ types naturally resist this because it would allow a French Revolution within the white race.

Being a higher-IQ type myself, I’d much rather live next door to white trailer trash than Latino/black trailer trash. There’ll be drug & welfare culture either way but whitey won’t despise me for being white. Also, no mariachi music.

Perhaps the biggest elephant in the room can be found in the enmity between whites. We detest the rest of them . whoever that is . because most of what we struggle against is other white people doing stupid and self-destructive things.

I’m listening. (Looks at Baby Boomers, cucks, neocons, Churchians & manginas.)

At this point we get to the core of the issue: white people have been infected by a virus, which we might call careerism to separate from the complex term individualism, in which each person wants to accrue as much power as they can independent from decency, or an understanding of the natural hierarchy within us.

This applies on two levels: those who have the chance of success want zero obligation to work toward making a thriving society, and those who have no chance of success want free handouts with money taken from the successful. These two groups slowly tear society apart in a sawing motion, back and forth between extremes when any internal motion is destructive.

This is class warfare, not race warfare. Financially successful coloreds don’t like funding their own losers, either.

Successful people or those who can be successful tend to look at the steaming pile of chaos that our society has become and formulate a simple response: get as much as you can, take it out of society, and then get yourself out by buying into some form of high-end gated community in a stable area.

We might categorize this, as the Leftists did, as bourgeois because it focuses entirely on the individual and what they want, and leaves zero room for regard of civilization, culture, history, values, or even the future of their children. A true bourgeois individualist sees someone who cares about anything larger than himself as a sucker.

Who would fight for this? There is nothing left to salvage. We are not protecting future genius here; no more genius, despite the “geniuses” the media fawns over, is coming out of this. Nor will it rise again to be a great civilization like Rome or Athens. It is a failed ruin, and the successful just want out.

Uh-oh. People who think individualism is the root of society’s problems are either Papists or Communists. Note that “buying into a stable, gated community” is the exact opposite of “taking it out of society”. This is not a coherent position.

Unfortunately, our society wholly validates their view. Our institutions are sodden with legal corruption, or the type of bureaucracy that delays every activity to siphon off wealth to a legion of clerks and lawyers. Our leaders are generally insane or idiotic, our mass culture is garbage, and every public figure seems generally foolish.

This comes close to where I currently stand. The damage inflicted by the Baby Boomers is incalculable, their treachery so unnatural that I’d call it literally inhuman. Humans do not behave like Boomers. Who betrays their own children hoping foreigners will appreciate them for doing so? Which suggests supernatural influence but that is not a productive line of inquiry.

Unsuccessful people or those who cannot be successful have one thing in common: they view the world through a filter of themselves. They are, usually by limitations in IQ, oblivious to the world outside them, the future beyond the next paycheck, and the implications of any action. …

This social science requires the manufacture of benefactors and scapegoats. A benefactor is someone to whom they can appeal for good things in lieu of acting to achieve those things themselves. If the crop fails, maybe the fertility god will help. A scapegoat is someone they can blame when this does not happen. The fertility god tried, but the rich man in the next village cast a witchcraft spell on the crop.

For these drones (cf. prole/pleb/serf/thrall) life consists of finding reasons to externalize cause and effect so that the drones can continue doing what they always do, which is to live at a subsistence level while loudly blaming others for their plight. They cannot do otherwise; this is their nature.

Again, this is class warfare not race warfare. Irrelevant.

Our aristocrats suppressed careerism for centuries. They roped the successful into a social order that required them to participate in the running of civilization, even informally. They oppressed the unsuccessful because the proles are uniformly awful in their judgment and will ruin any organization in which they are given power.

The aristocrats roped themselves into a social order? Dumbass, the reason society has problems is NEVER because ordinary men have free will. Society’s reason for existing in the first place is to serve the people for the people’s benefit, not oppress them into a socially approved mold. The government’s job is maintaining order and keeping water in the taps, not forcing me to have enough babies to keep its welfare state from collapsing.

Now then, back on topic, please. Why whites lack racial cohesion.

[skipping noblesse oblige, democracy & voting habits]

When they look out at those white prole faces, they want them dead. They are correct. Every dollar they make over $48k a year, the proles want to take. Every task a successful person undertakes, proles line up to do work slowly, point out union rules as if impressed by their own stupidity, or otherwise graft, grift, and leech.

The successful see the vast array of social programs we have and realize that white proles are the ones who demand these, which means that the successful are not successful; they are slaves. They work half of the year just to support the proles for being . well, it’s not brilliant, is it? . alive and breathing.

This is wrong. The welfare state foments women against men, not lower-class whites against upper-class whites. Now we’re talking gender warfare. Skipping on:

Let us face it, white people: we hate each other. The vast white herd always does wrong. Those who try to escape become corrupted by the democratic ideal of the individual as a demigod. The harder we try to fix our society, the more rules we add, and the worse it becomes. We are in a death spiral.

Democracy is hostile to individualism. Neither is a race issue. Look, these can’t be motivations for intra-white animosity because it’s in our own best interest to group up against vibrant outsiders today, as South Africa is learning this very second. The Dindus want us dead, the Chinese are buying up our land and the Latinos are accepting all the free money our gov’t will take out of our wallets. We have every socioeconomic incentive possible to group up.

And yet, we aren’t grouping up. That’s a very interesting and urgent issue… but not an economic issue, political issue or a “you’re too French for this Scotsman” issue. It isn’t a death spiral, either. Me hating a white legislator who decrees our common race’s extinction is hardly me hating whites.

Enough with the conflations, please. The article’s conclusion:

When we break free from this illusion [of Utopia], and recognize that we need not “white unity” but an internal hierarchy to white people, and a purpose to which we all work as a duty, then our future begins. Our future begins when we reject the ideals of this time but do so in favor of an organic ideal, where we work unequally toward a goal.

Whites never unified because whites are not the same. We are divided by ethnicity, region, and social class. We can work together toward a similar goal, such as (cough) restoring Western Civilization, because it benefits all of us, unequally and independently. We can make our future.

While my knee-jerk reaction is re-pointing out that whites HAVE unified in the past, there’s something to be said about division by region. Tolerance of other races isn’t a vulnerability when other races are far away. Perhaps hatred of outsiders is the necessary price of having the entire planet no more than 24 hours’ flight away?

We have no unity. We need no unity. Instead what we need is a purpose, a goal. In that, we can work together despite being different, and through that, we can make greatness. All that stands in our way is the pretense that we are equal. When that dies, Western Civilization rises, and through it, so do we.

I suspected this solution when the author made digs against individualism. White nationalists talk a good game but at the end, all they can offer are the usual power games. Unifying all whites by denying them equality with you is not going to work out. Remember how frightfully good the white man is at war.

Meanwhile, we whites still aren’t grouping up. I offer three causes:

1. Treacherous leadership. It’s unbelievable how every last single white gov’t official in the entirety of North America, UK and more than half of Europe is anti-white in matters of immigration and encouraging diversity. Of course we won’t band together when every possible leader is a known race traitor.

2. Decline of Christianity. I take pride in how Christianity has fit into white cultures the best of all cultures in the world and our devotion has carried us to great accomplishments. Not surprising, then, if our accomplishments fall apart with the mysterious death of organized Christianity.

3. Our women think we’re boring. White cohesion died paralleling the rise of female emancipation. I suggest that white men are so self-controlled, intelligent and dispassionate that our women would rather fuck a Maori lice hotel. Consequently, we’re so busy salvaging our homes that there’s not much gas left in the tank for salvaging our culture.

The solution is simple. In white areas, white people matter the most. That’s all. But even white nationalists want to enslave fellow whites to their personal agendas. Nobody wants to be our peer; everybody wants to be our tyrannical master. Even our own people.

 

Cracks In Reality

Jordan Peterson again. This post is going to get weird because prophetic dreams is a topic I have some knowledge of. Vox Day turned me on to the prelude of JP’s “Maps of Meaning”.

http://voxday.blogspot.com/2018/05/the-reluctant-messiah.html

The preface is an autobiography of how Jordan Peterson became infected with supernatural corruption and death-spiraled into a worst-case scenario of how to NOT explore the supernatural. It is most educational. I start on page 9:

My religious convictions, ill-formed to begin with, disappeared when I was very young. My confidence in socialism (that is, in political utopia) vanished when I realized that the world was not merely a place of economics. My faith in ideology departed, when I began to see that ideological identification itself posed a profound and mysterious problem. I could not accept the theoretical explanations my chosen field of study had to offer, and no longer had any practical reasons to continue in my original direction. I finished my three-year bachelor’s degree, and left university. All my beliefs . which had lent order to the chaos of my existence, at least temporarily . had proved illusory; I could no longer see the sense in things. I was cast adrift; I did not know what to do, or what to think.

As I covered in my recent post about JP, this is typical of a Godless man who faces the consequences of Godlessness. For whatever reasons, he neither submits to God nor embraces rebellion against God and so finds himself adrift. I thought this was the root of his newfound popularity.

But now, I think that popularity also comes from JP’s experience with the supernatural. God has been absent for so long that people are desperate for some, any contact with the Divine, and this is going to expose a lot of people to seriously bad shit. Christ would have me prevent this so I offer myself as an alternative guide to the likes of JP.

I’m a Christian mystic, just a dreamer of small accomplishment. No Lotto numbers. But I’ve taken some strange turns in life and might be helpful. For this article, I’ll give a perspective on what happened to JP, my interpretation of his dreams and how one can take precautions if he finds himself suffering a similar fate. If there’s demand then I can show a proper gateway to the supernatural. God is real and has given us access but Christian mysticism is an entirely optional, poorly defined field of theology. You don’t need it. It won’t make you happy. But if people are going to explore the cracks in reality anyway… sigh.

Buckle up.

JP accidentally exposed himself to the occult while visiting a prison:

Some of the prisoners, who weren’t dressed particularly well, offered to trade their clothes for mine. This did not strike me as a great bargain, but I wasn’t sure how to refuse. Fate rescued me, in the form of a short, skinny, bearded man. He came up to me . said that the psychologist had sent him . and asked me to accompany him. He was only one person, and many others (much larger) currently surrounded me and my cape. So I took him at his word. He led me outside the gym doors, and out into the prison yard, talking quietly but reasonably about something innocuous (I don’t recall what) all the while. I kept glancing back hopefully at the open doors behind us as we got further and further away. Finally my supervisor appeared, and motioned me back. We left the bearded prisoner, and went to a private office. The psychologist told me that the harmless-appearing little man who had escorted me out of the gym had murdered two policemen, in cold blood, after he had forced them to dig their own graves. One of the policemen had little children, and had begged for his life, on their behalf, while he was digging . at least according to the murderer’s own testimony.

This really shocked me. … I experienced a recurrent compulsion. I would take my seat behind some unwitting individual and listen to the professor speak. At some point during the lecture, I would unfailingly feel the urge to stab the point of my pen into the neck of the person in front of me. This impulse was not overwhelming . luckily . but it was powerful enough to disturb me. What sort of terrible person would have an impulse like that? Not me. I had never been aggressive. I had been smaller and younger than my classmates, for most of my life.

Exposure isn’t possession, merely exposure, therefore it’s something that can happen to both Christians and non-Christians. It’s a taint, a connection. An unnatural compulsion that ‘isn’t like you’ after a soul-disturbing incident is how it usually turns up. Not permanent. That’s how you handle it. Resist the impulse, focus on something healthy and remind yourself that the compulsion is temporary. It should pass in a few months at most.

Don’t convert to Christianity just to cure exposure. Probably it won’t work; worse, it’ll work, you’ll lapse back into Godlessness and then you’re stuck if it happens again. Kinda like antibiotics. You should only become a Christian when you believe God is real and you want to accept Christ’s offer.

The most common instance of spiritual exposure today is teenage boys wondering if they’re homosexual. What with all the junk the schools teach these days, it’s almost inevitable that homosexual feelings will crop up during the awkwardness of adolescence. Don’t stress over it. Just wait patiently and don’t feed those feelings. A few months of reminding yourself that sodomy is unnatural & unhealthy and chicks will be hawt again.

What you must not do is embrace the exposure. That’s what JP did.

I went back to the prison, a month or so after my first visit. During my absence, two prisoners had attacked a third, a suspected informer. They held or tied him down and pulverized one of his legs with a lead pipe. I was taken aback, once again, but this time I tried something different. I tried to imagine, really imagine, what I would have to be like to do such a thing. I concentrated on this task for days and days . and experienced a frightening revelation. The truly appalling aspect of such atrocity did not lie in its impossibility or remoteness, as I had naively assumed, but in its ease. I was not much different from the violent prisoners . not qualitatively different. I could do what they could do (although I hadn.t).

This discovery truly upset me. I was not who I thought I was. Surprisingly, however, the desire to stab someone with my pen disappeared. In retrospect, I would say that the behavioral urge had manifested itself in explicit knowledge . had been translated from emotion and image to concrete realization . and had no further “reason” to exist. The “impulse” had only occurred, because of the question I was attempting to answer: .how can men do terrible things to one another?. I meant other men, of course . bad men . but I had still asked the question. There was no reason for me to assume that I would receive a predictable or personally meaningless answer.

At the same time, something odd was happening to my ability to converse. I had always enjoyed engaging in arguments, regardless of topic. I regarded them as a sort of game (not that this is in any way unique). Suddenly, however, I couldn’t talk . more accurately, I couldn’t stand listening to myself talk. I started to hear a “voice” inside my head, commenting on my opinions. Every time I said something, it said something . something critical. The voice employed a standard refrain, delivered in a somewhat bored and matter-of-fact tone:

You don’t believe that.
That isn’t true.
You don’t believe that.
That isn’t true.

The “voice” applied such comments to almost every phrase I spoke.

I couldn’t understand what to make of this. I knew the source of the commentary was part of me . I wasn’t schizophrenic . but this knowledge only increased my confusion. Which part, precisely, was me . the talking part, or the criticizing part? If it was the talking part, then what was the criticizing part? If it was the criticizing part . well, then: how could virtually everything I said be untrue? In my ignorance and confusion, I decided to experiment. I tried only to say things that my internal reviewer would pass
unchallenged. This meant that I really had to listen to what I was saying, that I spoke much less often, and that I would frequently stop, midway through a sentence, feel embarrassed, and reformulate my thoughts. I soon noticed that I felt much less agitated and more confident when I only said things that the “voice” did not object to. This came as a definite relief. My experiment had been a success; I was the criticizing part.
Nonetheless, it took me a long time to reconcile myself to the idea that almost all my thoughts weren’t real, weren’t true . or, at least, weren’t mine.

Yes, hearing voices in your head is bad. Doing what they say is worse. I don’t mean to categorize this stuff but at this stage, the spiritual corruption is infesting you and not likely to leave. The only way to handle this level is to ask for help because you yourself have lost contact with reality. Go to the Catholic Church–we Protestants are unfortunately deficient in this area–make confession and take the priest’s referral.

As a general rule, you shouldn’t confront the supernatural solo. There are Things out there; why else are you exploring, except that you hope to find one? If you wouldn’t SCUBA dive alone then why swim in stranger tides alone?

I began to dream absolutely unbearable dreams. My dream life, up to this point, had been relatively uneventful, as far as I can remember; furthermore, I have never had a particularly good visual imagination. Nonetheless, my dreams became so horrible and so emotionally gripping that I was often afraid to go to sleep. I dreamt dreams vivid as reality. I could not escape from them or ignore them. They centered, in general, around a single theme: that of nuclear war, and total devastation . around the worst evils that I, or something in me, could imagine:

Before going into this, dreams are the simplest level of supernatural contact. That’s because most dreams are your brain sorting the day’s experiences for storage. Unnatural events and feelings tend to ‘loom large’ in comparison with eating your usual breakfast cereal. Dreams are the most likely moment you become aware of what you can’t really process with your senses… or what you can’t process with your conscious mind… which is their main usage in exploring the supernatural.

Such a rationalist, Western explanation. Eh, I’m a product of my culture.

What this means, for practical purposes, is that the first, safest step in exploring the supernatural is to keep a dream diary. See if you can match dreams to events or recognize any recurring symbolism. If your dreams begin scaring you then change your course. Job 33:14-18 is relevant here even for unbelievers.

First Dream Interpretation

My parents lived in a standard ranch style house, in a middle-class neighborhood, in a small town in northern Alberta. I was sitting in the darkened basement of this house, in the family room, watching TV, with my cousin Diane, who was in truth . in waking life . the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. A newscaster suddenly interrupted the program. The television picture and sound distorted, and static filled the screen. My cousin stood up and went behind the TV to check the electrical cord. She touched it, and started convulsing and frothing at the mouth, frozen upright by intense current.

A brilliant flash of light from a small window flooded the basement. I rushed upstairs. There was nothing left of the ground floor of the house. It had been completely and cleanly sheared away, leaving only the floor, which now served the basement as a roof. Red and orange flames filled the sky, from horizon to horizon. Nothing was left as far as I could see, except skeletal black ruins sticking up here and there: no houses, no trees, no signs of other human beings or of any life whatsoever. The entire town and everything that surrounded it on the flat prairie had been completely obliterated.

It started to rain mud, heavily. The mud blotted out everything, and left the earth brown, wet, flat and dull, and the sky leaden, even grey. A few distraught and shell-shocked people started to gather together. They were carrying unlabelled and dented cans of food, which contained nothing but mush and vegetables. They stood in the mud looking exhausted and disheveled. Some dogs emerged, out from under the basement stairs, where they had inexplicably taken residence. They were standing upright, on their hind legs. They were thin, like greyhounds, and had pointed noses. They looked like creatures of ritual . like Anubis, from the Egyptian tombs. They were carrying plates in front of them, which contained pieces of seared meat. They wanted to trade the meat for the cans. I took a plate. In the center of it was a circular slab of flesh four inches in diameter and one inch thick, foully cooked, oily, with a marrow bone in the center of it. Where did it come from?

I had a terrible thought. I rushed downstairs to my cousin. The dogs had butchered her, and were offering the meat to the survivors of the disaster. I woke up with my heart pounding.

In the context of JP’s preceding autobiography, the interpretation of the dream is easy enough. JP had a normal childhood… single family home in small town America, bucolic and safe. His cousin was the Holy Spirit of Christianity. He’d grown up with her in the family but didn’t consider her an intimate–a cousin, as he said, but very beautiful. He had an aesthetic appreciation of Christianity. She died when she touched the television, a symbol of information and modernity. His faith in Christ was killed by his faith in Science, which he found to be in violent opposition. (The electrocution.)

JP’s safe, ordered life ended instantly. He lost the entire world he’d known when God died to him and never saw it coming. Nothing remained but his basement: his hindbrain, a human animal of needs and fears. A few fellow ‘survivors of Christianity’ offered him inedible beliefs and philosophies to fill the gap left by the demise of his worldview. They were unpalatable and in real life, JP found the atheism which had killed Christianity for him was itself an inedible, barren wasteland.

Dogs are a very common dream symbol of demons. Upright dogs resembling Anubis, climbing up from the depths of JP’s subconscious, offering cooked slices of the Holy Spirit’s corpse… like I said, an easy interpretation. The violent death of his cousin followed by the violent death of his entire world is a common problem for early-stage Communists. They assume the consequences of Christian morality are a natural state of the human soul, cut away Christianity in favor of Godless humanism and are then horrifically surprised when men turn into despicable monsters instead of unchained saints.

Searching for this interpretation, JP comes across Jung:

“The psychological elucidation of. [dream and fantasy] images, which cannot be passed over in silence or blindly ignored, leads logically into the depths of religious phenomenology. The history of religion in its widest sense (including therefore mythology, folklore, and primitive psychology) is a treasure-house of archetypal forms from which the doctor can draw helpful parallels and enlightening comparisons for the purpose of calming and clarifying a consciousness that is all at sea.”

Let me digest this for the reader: Philosophers offer questions. Theologians offer answers. But Jung and JP both lack belief that God is real, therefore they treat religion as a “cargo cult that they know won’t work but they’ve exhausted every other solution”.

Second Dream Interpretation

My interest in the cold war transformed itself into a true obsession. I thought about the suicidal and murderous preparation of that war every minute of every day, from the moment I woke up until the second I went to bed. How could such a state of affairs come about? Who was responsible?

Not a dream, but being infested with corruption meant he was certainly an unwilling participant in the greatest Cold War ever, the unseen war for souls between Christ and the Devil. He probably used the USA-Russia Cold War as a proxy for the one he couldn’t rationally explain.

I dreamed that I was running through a mall parking lot, trying to escape from something. I was running through the parked cars, opening one door, crawling across the front seat, opening the other, moving to the next. The doors on one car suddenly slammed shut. I was in the passenger seat. The car started to move by itself. A voice said harshly, .there is no way out of here.. I was on a journey, going somewhere I did not want to go. I was not the driver.

JP was searching for meaning, trying one vehicle (symbol for philosophy, solutions, ways to make it through daily life) after another. He inadvertently tried Evil and Evil trapped him and took over.

If you don’t get Christian help when hearing disembodied voices then at least get help when your recurrent dreams tell you your life has been hijacked by the voices. At this point, if you still refuse to admit God is real after realizing the devil himself is in your driver’s seat then nobody can help you. You’ve made your choice, JP. You chose to explore what it meant to be evil, were noticed and did what the voices told you to because the alternative was submission to Christ Jesus.

JP is not the first academic type I’ve seen be spiritually corrupted. The previous was Arthur C. Clarke. I read a lot of sci-fi when I was younger and never really “got” ACC. You probably watched 2001: A Space Odyssey and had similar what the hey? reactions. That famous quote of his: “Any science sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic”? That was not a comment that all apparent magic has a rational basis. That was Clarke justifying his worship of demons. Read his book Childhood’s End, no doubt in your local library within reach of little kids, and see if it doesn’t disturb you on a very deep level.

A couple last thoughts.

College campuses are becoming nexuses for unclean spiritual activity. The people running them are deranged enemies of Christ and casual sex is a notorious transmission vector of spiritual corruption. If you choice of career requires a college degree then don’t have sex while you’re there and if you won’t believe Jesus is real then at least believe the darkness is real. Stay away from the darkness.

If you want to explore the supernatural then why are you not a Christian? You think you can be spiritual Switzerland or something? That’s an obvious lie and the proof of it is that exploring the supernatural at all is extremely difficult for us. How will you fight off a shark if you can barely swim? Humanity is not spiritual Switzerland, we are spiritual Poland. Desirable and indefensible. We WILL be conquered, either by Christ or the Enemy. Your horse cavalry is nice and pretty and against the Wehrmacht, totally worthless.

Look at all the gods on offer today. Do any of them care more about you than Jesus? He shed His own blood to rescue you from your self-destructive ways! Are you holding out for a better deal than that? Don’t be stupid.

David French’s Hit Piece On Incels

Hat tip to innocentbystanderboston for finding this gloriously fiskable article. David French is a nasty piece of work even by Churchian standards.

http://www.nationalreview.com/2018/05/sex-is-god-for-incel-sexless/

Citation needed and we haven’t even reached the article’s dateline. This one feels special!

Terrible movements often intrude on our lives through the acts of terrible men.

In point of fact, most terrible movements are known to be terrible long before they reach Stage Weathermen.

And so it was on April 23, when a man named Alek Minassian drove a van on Toronto city sidewalks, deliberately ramming pedestrians. He killed ten and injured 16 before he stopped his rampage. Minassian, it turns out, was part of the so-called “incel rebellion,. a vicious online community of men who are angry that women won’t have sex with them.

Question, does that sound like what a sexually frustrated man would do? Try to kill 26 random people? Wouldn’t robbing a bank then visiting a whorehouse be rather more plausible? This circumstantial evidence suggests anger was his god, not sex.

In fact, I even have unanswered questions concerning Eliot Rodgers. When that story broke, my immediate reaction was “angry sodomite” and I’m still not convinced that his problem was that women wouldn’t bang him rather than all his male friends preferring women over Eliot.

No, really, that exists. “Incel” stands for “involuntarily celibate.” And self-described “incels” have developed an entire theory for their lack of sexual prowess . a theory that essentially blames women for being attracted to strong or rich men.

Or Charles Manson. Death Row Fan Club is more than real, I would expect it to appear on reality TV any day now if I ever watched TV. I don’t because this is exactly what passes for quality programming today.

“And it’s a theory that’s steeped in sexual entitlement, the belief that men somehow have a right to have sex.”

You’re close, Frenchy. Men have a need to have sex. Not quite the same thing; in fact, from the Tradcon perspective it’s worse because men don’t naturally want to wait until menopause ends Barbie’s life as a cum dumpster for bartenders.

Most incels aren’t violent: As Zack Beauchamp wrote in an interesting Vox piece, many are “simply sad and lonely men, suffering from extreme social anxiety or deep depression.” Others, however, have translated their heartbreak into rage and violence. Alek Minassian is one such man. Another is Elliot Rodger, a California man who went on a killing spree in 2014.

You wish, French. Most incels are remarkably honorable, stable, normal men. You think incels are losers with serious mental health problems because the alternative is questioning your daughter’s motivations for rejecting them. You know what you’ll find; that’s why you aren’t asking.

Earlier this week New York Times columnist Ross Douthat wrote a characteristically thoughtful piece noting in part that this sense of frustration and despair is a natural consequence of the sexual revolution. This revolution, .like other forms of neoliberal deregulation,. created “new winners and losers, new hierarchies to replace the old ones, privileging the beautiful and rich and socially adept in new ways and relegating others to new forms of loneliness and frustration..

Hmm. First David French credits Vox’s Zack Beauchamp then the New York Times‘ Ross Douthat. Is French entirely happy with life among the Republicans? *checks bio* Ah, David French is a NeverTrumper. No, in fact he is NOT comfy with life on the right.

Begin Rant I remember, back in the day. I remember when pro-life advocates joined with abortionists when the idea was floated that women should be held responsible for killing their babies. After all, every single abortion happens only with the mother’s written approval. That was a world-stopper for me. Actual vertigo. One of the most polarized issues of the time (1980s-2010s) and it suddenly turned out that both sides were playing for the same team. Team Feminist.

You NeverTrumpers are every bit as disgusting & unworthy as those pro-lifers. You ‘courageously’ stand against the evil Democrats, forcing them to do slowly what they’d otherwise do quickly, but when you get a powerful candidate in the most powerful Federal position you join forces with the GAWDDAMNED NEW YORK TIMES to sabotage your own party’s success.

Trump is barely passable. He acts as though the main threat to USA is individuals within the civil service when in fact, it’s the civil service itself. The bureaucracy. A heroic, America-loving President would have reduced Federal headcount by at least 50% at this point and welfare by 100%. But no, Trump wasting time prosecuting child molesters and building a piddling little wall the Mexicans will simply crash with trucks is too radical an agenda for your tender, pinkish amygdala.

At least violent gang ‘migrants’ never pretended to be my friends. That makes Muzzie terrorists better people than you, you NeverTrumpers. Show some honesty and openly sneer at your supporters for being dumb enough to listen to you. End Rant

When it comes to incel, this is a new twist on an old story. Strip transcendence from the culture, replace the greater thing (genuine faith) with a lesser thing (sexual indulgence) that is not universally available, and the recipe for human misery is complete. When sex is the new god, what are the sexless to do?

It’s the same old story, no twist. If you young men want a chance with my daughter then jump through my hoops first. All of them! And I found some new ones while you were jumping through the old hoops! But if you refuse any of my demands then God hates you!

French has zero sympathy for male need for sex. Do old men forget how horny they once were or does National Review screen for dried-up prudes?

Substitute sex for wealth or status, and you see that this temptation has ancient and enduring roots.

A starving man worships the food he doesn’t have? A gong farmer gloats in his authority over day-old sewage? Wanting something very badly is not worship. You gonna change your religion to oxygen the first time you get waterboarded?

Ross is certainly correct that a conservative response dedicated to “reviving or adapting older ideas about the virtues of monogamy and chastity and permanence and the special respect owed to the celibate” is “not the natural response for a society like ours,. so I’d suggest a modification. Celebration of monogamy and chastity should be the result of the intended, much larger transformation. Put simply, one cannot locate his sense of transcendence in chastity or monogamy but rather in the obedience to and reverence for a living God.

HOLY SHEET, HE TOOK MY RANT’S ADVICE AND IS SNEERING AT HIS READERS! I knew this article was going to be special! “Get back on the Churchian plantation, you unsexy men, and great will be your reward of special respect owed to the celibate!”

The truth of Ecclesiastes 3:11 . that God set eternity in the hearts of men . has rarely been more obvious than in the present age. The truth of Ecclesiastes 3:11 . that God set eternity in the hearts of men . has rarely been more obvious than in the present age. And the endless, futile quest to replace the eternal with the temporal is crushing the human spirit. And, there is of course a Christian analog to this secular pursuit . the legalism of fundamentalism of all stripes, a legalism that places devotion to virtue over devotion to God, that makes, say, monogamy or celibacy the purpose of life rather than the consequence of pursuing the larger purpose.

We who grew up in the Church have heard this advice before. “God will give you a wife when she, er, He is ready! No need for you to feel any sexual desire before your wedding night and honestly, it’s for the best if you don’t feel any desire then, either.” It’s as unjustifiable, cruel and dismissive as ever.

If David French thinks sexual continence and lifetime monogamy is legalism then he’s either a closet Satanist or smoking crack.

The men of the incel movement are pursuing a god they can’t have. They’re in fact pursuing a god that will disappoint them even if they obtain what they want the most. And so they do what sinful men have done throughout all of human history. They lash out at the objects of their desire.

Pedestrians?

No woman should feel the least bit guilty for not desiring any man . no matter how many movies or television shows teach them that the nerd is the true prize, and the lonely man is the best catch. Instead it is the responsibility of the lonely man to find meaning apart from women. And that meaning happens to be found in a resurrected Christ who . unlike any other false god . can be found by any person who seeks His face.

 

I bet David French is a DODO, Dad Of Daughters Only. Per Wikipedia, he has 2 daughters of 3 kids and one daughter is an adopted Ethiopian… close enough. French isn’t just a closet Marxist, he’s a race traitor. I don’t just mean miscegenation, I mean going far out of his way to virtue-signal hostility to his own, white race.

The Right will not miss him.
