The Marriage Strike is Working

2007-01-23T11:23:00.000-07:00

The Marriage Strike is working. I have seen it for myself. On a first date last week, she offered the information that she would be willing to sign a pre-nup. A FIRST DATE! Now that is impact.

I have also noted that some skanks have gone so far as to eliminate the "M" word from their vocabulary. Before we all jump with joy, we need to keep this all in perspective. This does not mean that the skanks are coming around. What is happening is that the market price of a piece of ass is falling. Market forces are driving the discounts. It has nothing to do with understanding or decency. The quim cartel is not showing the profit that it once did, so it is merely adjusting to economic conditions. Make no mistake. They only want a foot in the door and will then coax and tempt you to abandon your own interests.

We are still a long way from ultimate victory. We will see geeks complete with masking tape to hold their glasses together pouring their sperm into the mouths of supermodels before we see even one man-friendly law made.

MGTOW Isn’t Just a Gender Issue Anymore

2007-01-14T00:51:00.000-07:00

The MGTOW mission is now bigger than avoiding skanks and big government. Physical survival is at stake from now on. Men must plan and prepare just to live. Nevermind retire without debt.

Anybody notice how low oil prices have fallen since summer? Even at prices over $4 a gallon at the pump, gasoline was way under priced. Free market forces would have it about $6 per gallon. What gives? Massive subsidies.

This is very, very bad news. While it might be fun to drive that old muscle car, your joyrides are costing you more in foregone wages and higher taxes than you will ever put in the tank. On top of the price tag, we need to consider that there is a practical limit to how much oil we can import. We have already pissed off Venezuela and Indonesia. Canada isn’t thrilled with us either. Russia will consume all of its own output within a couple of years. North Sea production has peaked. That leaves us with Iran and Saudi Arabia. What will they charge per barrel? Let’s not forget the economic growth in India and China. No sign of slowing down and demand for energy is increasing disproportionately. Brazilian demand is another energy headache waiting to happen.

If market forces were allowed to handle matters, gasoline prices would jump overnight. Sticker shock at the pump would help curb unnatural demand and maybe, just maybe, lead us to be more sane consumers. If demand decreases so would our dependence on the generosity of Islam. As it is, we will only deal with the problem when we are forced to. Then the production/import shortfall will be too great and it will be too late to make even painful adjustments. We face a major depression the likes of which has not been seen since the Jacobins.

This is a MGTOW issue like no other. Recovery, if any, will take longer than our natural lives. Industry requires energy and there will not be enough cheap energy to restart industry once it becomes idle. Food production and distribution will be difficult, if it can be done at all. I have seen men cheerlead for collapse on the message boards and in the blogs. They forget that the army would gladly shoot them to feed their corpse to a skank and its bastards. Let them eat the manginas. They would gladly give their bodies as skankfood, if you promise them they will get laid for it. The MGTOW must survive. They must feed themselves. The young guys might try intensive subsistence agriculture out in the plains. The older ones might try to barter manual and intellectual skills. Be prepared men. Be prepared.

The Bunkhouse

2006-11-27T17:32:00.000-07:00

Rescued from old MR site

There is a common myth, that even some men subscribe to, that any group of men, isolated and left to themselves, will deteriorate into a Lord of the Flies type lifestyle. Hogwash! Such a thing almost never happens. Men have been grouping together and dropping out of society since the beginning of time. Every monastery, boy’s school, military unit, cattle drive and remote field laboratory belies this myth. If we need a book to help predict what men are like in survival situations, PT-109 is a much better example than Lord of the Flies.

If we reject the myth, then it becomes possible for a teams of men to move out of the hostile mainstream society and into an alternative society made by and for men. This was quite common in the old days. Many examples exist. We already mentioned the monastery. Others include the warship, the academy and even the YMCA. The most suitable arrangement for the 21st century team is probably the 19th century style bunkhouse.

The bunkhouse is a Spartan lifestyle -- little more than a bed and a footlocker, but not unfamiliar to men who have military service and have lived in a barracks or a ship’s berthing compartment. Yes, we men know how to live out of a duffel bag without complaint. The advantages of doing so are numerous:

The bunkhouse is secular. Unlike a monastery, there is no need for a religious commitment.
The bunkhouse is civilian. Unlike a barracks, the men can set their own rules and nobody is likely to be transferred out of the unit.
Rents are very, very low. The amount of space needed is minimal. At say 100 sq/ft per man, rents, even in Washington or San Francisco, are affordable. Elsewhere, there is no need for any teammates to work full-time.
Other expenses are minimized. A single broadband internet connection can be shared six ways and used simultaneously by all. The electric bill per man will be nominal. Anybody can get a prepaid cell phone, so there is no need for a common phone bill.
Crime is virtually nonexistent. No burglar is going to break into a residence where there are five or more adult men, especially if there is little to steal.
A bunkhouse can be established just about anywhere. A bunkhouse is not just for a ranch. They can be set up in big city apartments or mobile homes in the sticks. Zoning problems are easily dealt with when they are known. A bunkhouse can even be established in commercial or industrial zones, when the team runs businesses out of the bunkhouse. Because a men’s bunkhouse is such a poor crime target, you can put it in the worst (usually the cheapest) areas.
A bunkhouse is the only way to go when the team decides to relocate overseas. In addition to its other advantages, a bunkhouse will reduce culture shock and keep the team safe in unknown territory.

Democtratic Congress and MRAs

2006-11-21T15:45:00.000-07:00

What does the new Democratic majority mean to MRAs? Not too much unfortunately. It might be nice to think that they will roll back the PATRIOT ACT, end domestic spying and abolish torture. Don't hold your breath though. The Dems are eyeing victory in 08 and will want to preserve dictitorial powers for themselves.

Some say this is a disaster for the men's movement. No. It is not. What about the new hate crimes legislation? Doesn't mean a thing. Truth is that you can already be jacked up on idiotic criminal charges at the whim of anyone except a white male. Calling the false charges hate speech instead of DV, pedophilia or disloyal utterances during time of war doesn't increase your risks at all.

We have hit bottom guys. No place to go but up. It might happen someday, but not yet.

Anti Feminism Sites

2006-11-02T14:16:00.000-07:00

Since I already consider feminism a discredited ideology, I have preferred to push the male separatist side of MGTOW. Every day, there are new anti feminism sites and blogs comming online. Though I push a different agenda, I am very, very glad to see these sites.

Eventhough the ideology is in disgrace and feminism as a political movement has crested, nobody can deny that it is still wedged tightly into legal, legislative and academic circles. The remnants of feminism are still being exploited, not for political or social reasons, but for financial gain. There is still a fight to fight.

Though revitalized men focus on developing tough defenses, there is no reason we should not join others in the attack against the intrenched feminazis. It doesn't matter that there is little chance of success in our lifetimes. A strong anti feminist upsurge may even be an excuse to invoke martial law. That doesn't matter because any excuse is good enough for the powers that be. We don't care because when the turmoil and strife is over, we don't want feminists to be part of any new regime. Let the anti feminists keep reminding us of that.

Guilty Secrets of a Dedicated MGTOW

2006-10-31T00:43:00.000-07:00

Psssst. Rich's friends are mostly female. Rich has a profile posted on a dating site. Even worse, he pays for dinner and drinks! He never gets laid for the trouble either.

There it is. Out in the open. Why is he stabbing us all in the back?

It goes to the root of my personal philosophy. Others may certainly disagree and stand on very firm ground, but Rich's idea of MGTOW means maximum personal choice. This freedom of choice includes having the latitude to select companions and recreation without any particular ideological restrictions. What a man decides to do is unimportant. The fact the he can and does decide is the essence of MGTOW.

So, does this mean that I am collaborating with the enemy? One could say so, if he truly believed that women are, in fact, the enemy. The fact is they are not. Women are not formidable enough to be the true enemy. Women certainly are tools of the enemy, but have no independant will or function.

The real enemies of men are other men. The authoritarian sickos who just voted to grant the White House the option of unilaterally declaring martial law. The enemy is anyone who carries a badge and gun. Anyone who wears a government issued uniform. Anyone who makes his living lying to juries. The bloated, foul-mouthed bitch next door isn't even on the radar.

But Rich, that doesn't explain why you are usually in the company of women who would just as soon see you and the rest of us paralized. Very true, it doesn't. I have three sisters and no brothers. My circle of acquaintences tends toward women because they are usually my sister's friends first. It could also be that I really see no woman as being any kind of threat. I would even go so far as to say that it has always been that way and am too lazy to change it. You guys figure it out. I sure can't. The only thing I can say in my own behalf is that these are MY choices, however I came to make them. Since it is my will that prevails it is still MGTOW at the core. The off ramp leads to many, many side streets -- even mine.

What Are You Doing Here?

2006-10-21T10:32:00.000-07:00

Why are American MRAs still here? Your very existence breaks the laws of the land of your birth. The Government doesn’t want you. Women don’t want you. Manginas don’t want you. You don’t even have control of your own life. What are you doing here?

The only answer I tend to get is “I work here.” Nobody loves America anymore. They still love what it was, but know full well that the America we were born in does not exist anymore and will never return.

What am I doing here? I don’t have the excuse of having a job here. I do not entertain false hope. I should have been gone years ago. What gives? I wish I could say.

Obstacles to Progress and How We Overcome Them.

2006-10-15T12:31:00.000-07:00

What is it about men’s activism that causes new MRAs to continually and unwittingly screw themselves and each other? It is certainly not lack of effort or dedication. It is not because there is no emergency or that the problems men face are trivial. There are three reasons for the failure of the MM to make headway. 1) Political Activism 2) Waste of Energy and Resources and 3) Unattainable Goals.

In this blog, we have covered political activism before. But I have some new thoughts on this and perhaps you will hear me out. I have long decried the nearly automatic reactionary voting habits of MRAs. MRAs fall into two political camps, libertarians and neo-conservatives. Your friend and blogger often votes libertarian too. I am no exception. There is a weak but real tendency for secular MRAs to go libertarian, while evangelical MRAs cast their lot with neo-cons. My new thinking is not for us change our political philosophy, but to force the politicians to earn our loyalty. From now on, I don’t vote for anyone unless they deliver man friendly reforms first. The RNC (a Washington-based subsidiary of Halliburton) has been flooding the South and Midwest with “family values” for many years now. Can anyone name one single thing that has materially improved the lot of men? I sure can’t. The trouble here is that disgraced dads think that family values includes them. Never! Until some coalition, I don’t care which party leads it, passes an important and effective law that genuinely helps men AND overrides the inevitable veto, I don’t vote. It costs far less to have a don’t get out the vote drive than to organize support for your enemy -- all political candidates are your enemy.

We waste our energy and resources very foolishly. We pay lawyers to go to court with and for us. We donate to political campaigns of people who despise us. Does anybody really think that the courts and Congress do not really understand what we want? Men go time and again to the very people who laugh in our face and suck our blood and expect them to do the right thing? We need to quit begging our enemies for help and put our effort and resources into something we can use. First, we need to understand that there are OTHER WAYS to get things done. Government isn’t everything -- not yet. Don’t hire a lawyer, buy stock in a critical industry. Don’t support a politician, be active in your union or professional society. Invest heavily in career advancement. One man can do a lot of good when he can hire and fire. If we rule the private sector, the government sector -- including academia -- will buckle. The best part is that Adam Smith is on our side. Male dominated workplaces are profit centers. Female dominated workplaces are tax losses. Guess how Wall Street views each. For the answer to that question, look at the SEC filings of any publicly traded company and try to find the words “post partum depression”. Even if you only become the foreman of a small working crew, you have the power to make men’s lives better. We can even be MRAs on the sly. Nobody has to know that you are bucking for a promotion so that you can help other men. Management only has to know that you are willing to earn it.

The third obstacle to progress, unrealistic goals, will be harder to overcome. Our problem is that we look to our fathers and grandfathers as models. We want the same world they had. That is impossible. The moving finger writes and having writ, moves on. We have to forget the old ways. The good news is that there are lots of creative and enterprising guys out there to help us. Most states have mandatory auto insurance. Many unions have life insurance as part of their membership package. How about divorce insurance? What if a few scattered American Legion posts started to actively recommend talented members for management positions in local businesses? What if a few stealth MRAs were able to sneak onto the board of your credit union and created some new lending and financial products targeted at young men? Say, investment limited partnerships that are immune from court alienation or attachment? Suppose it offered mortgages a half percent lower when the deed to the house is in one name or is a tenants-in-common instead of forcing men to lose their house through joint tenancy? Here again, Adam Smith lends a hand. These creations and other ideas like them, MAKE MONEY.

The best news of all is that it will take only a few really good ideas to make things happen. The whole world is crying foul, but the video game “Bully” is going to break sales records despite the bitter and shrill outcry. Nobody has to like the business that an inventive MRA starts. People only need invest in it and use the product. If we win in the marketplace, we eventually win everywhere else.

Give Up Already

2006-10-13T10:41:00.000-07:00

Lately, I have been involved in several discussions of why or why not someone can get laid. It vexes me that these conversations ever take place because everyone should already know the answers. What it boils down to is that if you have to ask, then you can’t. For those still in denial, I offer the following:

No woman wants YOU. If they did you would be out screwing instead of reading this. The only chance you have at a sex life is to find a woman who has an ulterior motive for dishing out to you. These motives range from money, to drugs, to career advancement, to revenge. None of this means they want or care about you.

But, you can do better with women if you are a bad boy, right? Wrong. YOU can’t do jack. Being a bad boy doesn’t help you become attractive. Being attractive helps you become a bad boy. The PUA techniques all over the internet do double your success rate. You go from one in a hundred to two in a hundred. The rest of the time you are spurned, scalded or humiliated as always.

So, what is it that separates the successful womanizer from the loser? Nothing. Not a damned thing. You can take a pair of identical twins, both Army Rangers, both hold the same rank, both have angry and violent streaks. Then take a pair of supermodel identical twins. One guy leaves for a threesome with the female twins. The other goes home to spank the monkey. That is just the way it is. There is no suitable reason for it. Most men wear an invisible neon sign that says DON”T FUCK ME. It doesn’t matter who or what you are. It is always on. All women see it all the time. Face it. You will wear it all of your life.

But Rich, what about those guys who get it all the time? Forget it man! They have been able to bang any female they see since they were thirteen. No effort. No special characteristics. No nothing. If you couldn’t screw a college girl or your friend’s mother when you were a high school freshman, you are permanently out in the cold. End of story. But Rich, what about the late bloomers? No such thing. Remember the ulterior motive. If you start to get laid in your twenties , you are not a late bloomer. You are an economic or social commodity. A real womanizer by birth will take her away from you in a New York minute. Some probably already have. She is screwing him while she dotes on you.

Well Rich, what if I dress better and get into shape at the gym? Sorry. There are countless golden haired body builders who pour it into a Kleenex every night. Even when you do get noticed and laid, it is not because you are desirable. You are a hood ornament. Never forget the ulterior motive. A skinny, stinking junkie will have her when you are at work.

You sure paint a grim picture Rich. Yes. I do. Still, that is the way it is. Nobody has any control over it. You can’t make it better or make the effects less severe. You will be ridiculed and hounded by your own self doubt for the rest of your life. Live with it. The one and only solace you can take from it is that all of your friends are in the same boat. They do not have to know that you are feminine refuse. Never talk about it and there is a chance that nobody but women will ever notice.

How to Run a Safe House -- The Driver

2006-10-10T09:27:00.000-07:00

The safe house driver is not just for transportation, but also for surveillance. When the contact meets the guest, the driver should be waiting outside and watching for any suspicious activity. Things to look for:

Does a cop car show up?
Are the contact and guest being followed from the meeting point?
When the guest and contact leave does another car start its engine?
Is anyone hanging around at the meeting point exit?

If anything looks funny, call the contact on his cell phone. He will not answer, but will simply walk away from the situation. You, the driver, take off while the phone is ringing and before anyone leaves the meeting point.

If everything is going well, you will watch the contact and guest leave the meeting point together and walk toward the pick up point. Again, if something looks fishy, call the contact.

The pick up point will only be known to the driver and the contact. When the contact and guest walk out of your sight, proceed to the pick up point and make sure the coast is clear. If it is then park and keep the engine running and the headlights on. If something looks wrong, leave immediately. When the contact arrives and the driver is not waiting, then the contact will know something is up and he will pull the plug on the operation then and there.

The driver never speaks. The driver never leaves the wheel. The contact will fix the guest for the trip. He will bind and blindfold the guest. Then he will put the guest into the vehicle and get in himself. The contact will continue the interrogation. The driver will cruise aimlessly during the interrogation to throw off the guest�s sense of direction and to make sure nobody is tailing you.

The driver and contact will chose two code words to use at the end of the pick up. They should be new for each pick up. One will be the danger word. If either the driver or contact use this word, proceed to a large, deserted parking lot. The contact will get the guest out of the car and unbind him, but leave the blindfold on. The contact jumps in the car and the driver speeds away before the guest can undo the blindfold enough to see you get away.

When the safe word is used. The driver stops and lets the contact out. For security reasons, the contact does not know the location of the safe house, so he should be let out far from the destination. He will leave the phone with the driver. The driver will then transport the guest to the safe house.

Just before arrival at the safe house, call the host. He will not answer, but will know the delivery is being made. It is the host�s job to get the guest out of the vehicle and usher the guest inside still blindfolded. The driver�s job is done. He can then go to pick up the contact and bring him back to the meeting point. Then go home.

How to Run a Safe House -- The Contact

2006-10-10T09:12:00.000-07:00

This is the second article in the safe house series.

The Contact is responsible for screening potential guests and delivering them to the Driver. Ideally, the Contact will only know the Driver by sight and not know the Host at all. Security is job one for the Contact. The Contact should be the sternest and most gruff individual in the group.

Equipment When the Contact meets a prospective guest for the first time, he needs these things:

A non descript tote bag for carrying other materials.
An anonymous cell phone to summon the Driver
An opaque sleeping mast to use as a blindfold.
Duct tape to secure the mask to the head and to bind hands and feet if necessary.
Sunglasses painted black on the inside to be worn when waiting for the Driver.
A set of one-size-fits-all sweats and sneakers.
A voice activated tape recorder.
A vibrator. (more on this later)

Identifying the Guest. The first meeting with the guest should always be in a public or semi public place. Send him to an upscale bar or restaurant. When he is seated he should take an innocuous object, say a baseball, and set it down on the bar or table beside him. Five minutes after the appointed time, the Contact enters the establishment and looks for the baseball. If the Contact does not see it, he walks out and forgets about the whole thing.

Making Contact If the subject does have the baseball and does know the pre arranged sign and counter sign, then you simply say, "Come with me" and lead him to the restroom or other inconspicuous place and start the tape. NEVER EVER admit that you are associated with a safe house or other underground railroad process. You can tell the guest that you will "help" but you must never say anything about how or why you will do it. If your guest tries to speak or explain himself, immediately tell him to shut up, you don't want to know why he is coming to you.

Physical Examination Both of you will enter a bathroom stall. Then order him to strip down, skivvies and all. You want to make sure he is not wired. If he won't do it, leave and do not look back. If he will but wants to know why while he is undressing, you ask him, "Do you want my help or not?" and "Didn't I tell you to shut up"� If he presses the matter, leave. If he does as he is told, give him the sweat clothes and the sneakers to put on.

While he dresses, you go over his clothes for bugs and spy cameras. When you are done, extract the wallet and stuff the clothes into the bag and switch the vibrator on. The vibrator will make it harder for the cops to listen in even if you miss a well placed bug.

Take a Hike. Next pay the restaurant tab in cash then go out for a walk. You head for a pre arranged pick-up point on foot. It should give you enough time to lay down the law and ask some preliminary questions. First the rules:

Do not speak to the Driver.
We will have you lie down for the trip. Do not sit up until you are told to
When you are asked a question answer only that question without offering any other information.
You will be blindfolded and duct tape will be wrapped around your head to hold it in place. Do not tamper with it. Yes the tape will stick to your hair but you will get a buzz cut when we arrive anyway.
We will keep your wallet and all of its contents. You will get a new one with new ID as soon as it is practical.
If you have an ATM card or credit card with a pin, then you will be told to write it down for us. We will FEDEX the cards and pins to a Contact in another state. They will get as much of your money out as they can. You will be given cash for it all minus our expenses.
Your wallet, the rest of its contents and your clothes will be destroyed. You will be provided with new ones.

If he does not balk ant any of these conditions, call for the Driver. Before the Driver arrives, cover the guests eyes with two small squares of duct tape and make him wear the dark, painted glasses. That way he won't see the car.

To Go or not to Go During the stroll to the meeting point, the Driver will have had the whole scene under surveillance. If he saw anything funny, he will lean over and give a specified sign. The car takes off, you take the glasses back and leave.

If the Driver signals that everything is cool, you lay the guest across the back seat, truck bed or van floor, feet first. You take off the glasses and put on the sleeping mask. Wrap the guest's head around the mask with duct tape.

Stay in the vehicle and continue the interrogation until you are about 10 minutes away. Then get out of the car. Important: Leave the tape recorder, bag of clothes and the cell phone behind. You wait where you are until the Driver delivers the guest and returns to give you a lift home.

How to Run a Safe House -- The Host

2006-10-09T11:55:00.000-07:00

Perhaps the most important thing that a Revitalized Man can do for his fellow man is to provide him sanctuary. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most risky. Make no mistake about it. They will put you away for just lending a guy a hand. Still willing to help? Then close your browser now. You are not suited to being a safe house host.

It takes at least three guys to run a safe house. One is the host. The other two are the driver and the contact. This article will key on the host.

What sort of person does it take to be a safe house host?

The ideal candidate is someone who has a very good public reputation but is philosophically dedicated to the cause. He should be a pillar of the community, a good neighbor and a bit of a fussbudget. The host should also have lots of like-minded friends and family.

Above all, he should be very skittish. He needs to be the kind of guy that will decline to help when -- God help me for saying this -- something doesn't feel right.

People who take a public stand are not good candidates. After family and close friends, the activists will be the first to be searched. A hothead, like your author, is a severe liability.

What makes a good safe house?

Any port in a storm friend. Any port in a storm. A safe house can be a regular house. It can be a motel room, travel trailer, a tent in a campground, a tool shed or the back of a cargo van. Anyplace that is likely to escape notice will do in a pinch. The ideal safe house is a windowless basement bedroom with a connected bathroom but without a phone. In a dream, the room can be locked from the outside for the sake of security.

What security precautions should I take?

Always remember that your guest is the most likely person to give you away and have you tossed into the can! Secrecy and security are always the most important considerations. Be paranoid.

Make very strict security rules and enforce them without mercy. The guy only gets one chance. He breaks the rules then the ride is over. Some good rules are:

* No communication with anyone except your host.
* Never leave your room without permission.
* Do not try to discover where you are.

Make any rules that you think are necessary to ensure security.

Use codes to communicate with your partners and your guest. Good code names are distinctive enough that the guest will remember it but not so contrived that they get unwanted attention. Brent is good. Giovanni is bad. Never ever use your real name. Not in the street, not on the phone, not ever!

Don't hesitate to give your guest the bum's rush if he breaks the rules. It is your ass that is on the line, as well as his. In the most unpleasant situations, you may have to use force to get rid of him. You might even have to turn him in to save your own ass.

Hopefully, your partners will pre screen the guest, but some ringers are very convincing. Take the liberty of interrogating him again. Compare your interview with the tape made by your partner.

What equipment will I need?

At least a place to stay. If you can afford it get three cell phones, several anonymous calling cards for pay phones, several sizes of sweat suits, a television, a police scanner and a radar detector.

You will also need a car. Your best bet is an old but reliable conservative model. Pay cash for it and never change the title. That makes it untraceable. When the plates expire sell it.

Who pays the bills?

The guest if possible. Unfortunately, the dudes that will seek you out are likely destitute. Legal fees, CS and psych bills will usually suck him dry before he gets to you. If he does have some money, try to leave him enough to get started again. You can inform the guest that you need to defray a few expenses and that you will keep some of the cash in the billfold you confiscated.

Sincere Apologies to My Readers

2006-10-09T11:35:00.000-07:00

I just noticed that I set the blog to moderate comments. I promise that I have not ignored anybody. I just did not remember that I had to actually review the comments before they went on to the posts. All of the comments made up to now are now available for viewing.

Next order of business is to move the MR site articles over here. The next few posts will be the safe house series and the asset protection series.

MR main site is finished

2006-09-23T01:51:00.000-07:00

Men Revitalized is going away next month. The rent for the server space will come due around mid month and the traffic doesn't justify paying for another year. Since the blog is still free I will keep it going. The rest of the site will vanish someday soon.

I will make an honest effort to put as many of the articles in this blog as is practical. Unfortunately, Project Shawshank is doomed because of its size. If I can find a place to store it in zip format, I will do so.

Starting today, the blog will permit comments. Since the contact link will die with the main site, I have decided to deal with the trolls and the spam. No other reasonable way to communicate. Besides, who reads this trash anyway?

All Sex is Rape

2006-09-12T00:23:00.000-07:00

All sex is rape. McKinnon is right. Every act of sex diminishes the soul of the man involved and directly contributes to his misery. It should be against the law, but it isn't and won't be. But take heart. That is not the end of the story.

All females use sex to extort or bribe men into giving them something they don't deserve. It may be money from a doddering old millionaire, status from a young athelete, drugs from a pusher or maybe even leniency and protection from a blue goon. No matter what form it takes, it is always exploitive.

Some say prostitution is the answer. Nope -- sex for money is always exploitive, even if cut-rate. Others say foreign wives are the way to go. Sorry, no green card, no foreign wife. So where does that leave us? We can be celebate. We can wank. We can turn to bestiality. Some would like me to include inflatable companions. Okay, lets do.

Some say that it is natural and manly to want sex. Natural perhaps, but manly? Never. It is an animal urge that needs to be controlled like theft and hatred. There is nothing manly about surrendering yourself or subordinating your humanity to any female, whatever the species.

Lest you think I am too dogmatic, I understand that men are only human. Hell, the few humans on this planet are all men. I can wink at the guy who stumbles in a moment of weakness or frailty. On the other hand, those male homo sapiens, and they are few, who do seem to have sex constanly do not qualify as human in my eyes. Neither he nor I will ever know which ejaculation carried off his last bit of humanity and deposited it in some reeking slot. But it happened somewhere along the line. I do not envy him. I do not pity him. There is no "him" only "it".

Sour grapes you say? Sour Limburger cheese is more like it. That is what I thought I smelled last time I almost gave in. Were it not for the ugly stench, I might have even gone through with it. I put it to my reader. Is that what we really want? Is that what we pay so much for? If we won't pay $4.50 lbs at the deli then why do we want to pay most of our life's earnings for something worse?

World Government

2006-08-22T13:36:00.000-07:00

A recent blog article by Lord Feverstone , "Why I am a monarchist" contains a comment by Feverstone that makes a good prima facie case against World Government. Since Feverstone intends to devote a complete article to the subject, I am going to wait until the article is posted to offer a direct rebuttal. What I will do here is make my case in favor of World Government. I have held this position for a long time, but have not yet written on the topic. Perhaps Feverstone can refute some of my notions in his article. I feel strongly that the MM needs to discuss World Government. I have no doubt that eventually our younger brethren will live under it.

World Government is inevitable. If my prediction of human immortality proves true, it will come sooner rather than later. If humans continue to die off in the near future, it may take generations, but it will come. MRAs tend to be nationalists. I confess that don’t fully understand this viewpoint, because these same men are suspicious of national governments as they are presently constituted. I can only speculate that they equate the number of people ruled by a government to be directly related to its coerciveness and intrusiveness. This relationship is much less fact than a projection of current trends in America on the rest of the world. As I said, I do not fully understand all of these views, so I will leave men to speak for themselves on this.

For any World Government to evolve, there a several prerequisites and none of them are bad for the race as a whole. Firstly, a higher level of political and social maturity must emerge before a World Government can rule, or to be more accurate, administer and organize the entire globe. For reasons I will explain later, it cannot be instituted by conquest or be maintained by repression. An international consensus must develop on the proper direction for all humanity. Peoples will necessarily join voluntarily. This is not an outrageous proposition. If humanity is to survive at all, it must come to pass. The good news is that over the centuries cooperation between peoples has increased. People, in general, are more humane. The level of social understanding has grown. It is not readily apparent in the industrialized west, but civilization continues to develop. It is like playing with a yoyo while climbing a staircase. The yoyo goes up and down, but the overall direction is up. In the 20th Century alone, literacy, life spans, economic well being and the extension of human rights have improved beyond the imagination of any person born during the American Civil War. Yes, there have been both advances and retreats. Communism and Nazism cannot be ignored. They happened and were intolerable. That is the reason that they are almost absent in the world today. At the moment among the world’s failures are Haiti, Somalia, North Korea, the antagonism between the Industrial West and Islam and, of course, Feminism. Still, the well being for any randomly selected individual in the world today is almost without exception superior to that of his counterpart in 1900. There is no reason beyond the extinction of the race to expect civilization to deteriorate in this or the remote future. Today’s problems will be solved or we will all perish. Expect people and their governments to be better in the future. If they are not, there will be no future to concern us.

For those who expect the world to be united under despotism and serfdom, I can positively state that such a future is impossible over the long term. The reasons that conspire against such a situation are the continued advance of civilization, the size of the globe and its growing population, the raw power that a single individual can wield, and the strange bedfellows effect -- the tendency of diverse and radically different peoples to unite just long enough to defeat a common enemy. (e.g. USA, UK and USSR vs. The Axis or Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Buddhists vs., The Christian British) The only superpower left, the USA has its hands full with Iraq, what are the chances that it can control the entire world by force alone? Rebellion would be worldwide and constant. The world is too big. Supply lines would be too long, even in the far future. There are just not enough Americans who would be willing and able to rule Indonesia much less the rest of the world. Even to try would mean the overthrow of the American government by its own subjects. The same would be true of China, India, Brazil, Indonesia or any other superpower that may rise in the future. One could point to the 19th Century British Empire as an exception. It would be wrong. The British ruled largely with the consent or at least the apathy of the governed. Gibraltar and Bermuda were never a problem. India could not have been ruled without the cooperation of many native ethnic groups that were hostile to the traditional Hindu and Muslim monarchies. The typical Indian peasant cared little who ran the offices in Delhi. If anything, he was better off under the British than to be at the mercy of the warring princes. With British introduced prosperity and education, ethnic political identity and discontent emerged. Only in the 20th Century, was Gandhi able revoke popular support and acquiescence and to galvanize this new found identity into a successful rebellion.

In this day and age, no government, world or national, can despotically rule every individual. I am waiting for the day that some black robed terrorist pisses off the wrong microbiologist by taking his children and he retaliates by creating and releasing a virus that attacks chlorophyll. Nice going your honor! Technology is now sufficient and knowledge is too widespread to try to screw everybody. I read that it would only cost a few thousand dollars for a renegade genetic engineer to improvise a lab that will wipe out cities. I do not doubt this now and if I am wrong at the moment, I will not be wrong for very long. I will only briefly mention dirty bombs, deliberate poisoning of the water supply and other terrorist acts. Everybody already understands the implications. For a world society to succeed, there is no room for widespread discontent and injustice.

So what can we expect? Politically, a world government would have to permit a large degree of local and individual autonomy. I cannot see a Federal Republic of Earth. It would be far too restrictive to suit everyone and it must suit everyone. Dictatorship is out of the question. Like the fags Tears For Fears said, “Everybody wants to rule the world.” If it happens at all, it cannot last. There are too many prospective Maos to keep them all under one thumb. Out of necessity, a world government would have only enough administrative authority to facilitate commerce and science. What it will not be able to do is wage war. Any future war no matter how small will be a dire threat to the entire race. Undoubtedly there will be local rebellions. Charismatic leaders will be born and sway many followers. With war eliminated as an option, such rebellions must simply be permitted. When they occur, let the people go. Eventually, these competing societies will come to terms with the world government. Either the people in these societies will be worse for their isolation or be better for their freedom. If isolation is not in the interest of these people, then they will voluntarily rejoin the rest of the world. It is also possible that the freedom is preferred and will spread to other peoples. In that case, the world government will have to adapt to accommodate the rebels or be eroded from within. The only exceptions would be any remaining aboriginal peoples or localities with a subsistence economy. There would be no incentive or necessity to govern these groups at all. In essence, there will be a continuous cycling in and out of one group or another. In all cases, the new nations will be as temporary as they are numerous.

Expect science and technology to accelerate. There is no way around it. Education must improve world wide. Life spans will be unlimited or at least much longer overall. This will insure that more and better minds will develop and find outlets in science as well as the arts and letters. Longer lives will mean not only more knowledge but also more experience and more wisdom. These things will only contribute to the continued success of a world society.

MGTOW Changing Lanes

2006-08-09T13:16:00.000-07:00

MGTOW is at an important crossroads. It is now clear that every male, at some nebulous time around age 40,stops being garbage and becomes solid gold. It happens to MGTOW and mangina alike. Women who have either never obtained or once discarded her bicycle are in a desperate search for transportation above and beyond her broom.

Bloated, pregnant teenagers with a nest of bastards are challenging MS Biological Clock for the few "good men" left. We are now at a point where we see the definition of "good men" on a sliding scale. The corporate crone is asking her "network" to fix her up with that balding and buldging software engineer. The liberated and ubermom welfare queen is seeking desperately sell herself into the slavery of marriage. They are looking for older "responsible" men who "know how to pamper a woman." Both will settle for anyone with a decent credit report.

How do we react to this turn of events? Unfortunately, this decision is in the hands of older men, but will have the greatest impact upon the younger ones. We will be deciding for them, how they will be treated for the rest of their lives. It is that important.

If the elder and more financially established men decide to "forgive and forget" and gratefully accept our first sense of female approval, we give the bitches several decades more of treating younger men like trash. How will we explain this to our creator who wants decency and dignity for all? We have to toss the fish back into the lake.

Many of us are okay now. Many more will be okay soon. What is it to us now, this late in the game, to accept female attention? It is our moral duty to send the humbled bitches back into the cruel world. They must be forced to accept young men or none at all. So, what do we tell them?

Youngster with a brat pack:

I am too old for you.
I can't handle kids this late in life.
I need someone more mature.
You are better off with someone your own age.
I have a daughter your age.
I am set in my ways.
My mom is sick and has to move in with me.
I have someone else.
I am moving to California.

Miserable old catwoman:

I really want a family.
I have someone else.
I am set in my ways.
My mom is sick and has to move in with me.
You should be a cougar like my sister.
I am not comfortable around strong women.
Our careers will make things impossible.
I am moving to California.

One last thing guys. Don't let it go to your heads. They don't want you for yourself. They want you as a shield against their own belligerence. Until young men are treated with kindness and respect as well, we always have to question the motives of any woman who is even civil to us.

Marriage Serves No Purpose

2006-07-30T08:25:00.000-07:00

Many MRAs agree that marriage is a very bad idea from a social and legal perspective. Feminists call it obsolete. From a biological standpoint, it will be completely obsolete. MRAs and Feminists disagree that the traditional nuclear family is optimum for child rearing. The point will soon be moot.

Because of advances in medicine, biotechnology, genetic engineering and robotics; today’s children and young adults may well be immortal. There will be no biological or social necessity for having children at all. No kids. No marriage. It will be all that society can do in the beginning to sort out adult relationships. In a century or so -- a blink of an eye in the future -- all of the issues will be settled for good or ill.

Playing Prophet

2006-07-23T14:30:00.000-07:00

A few days ago, a good friend back East sent me an email about the downfall of America. Nothing unusual, just the same shopworn survivalist stuff. I have not yet replied. When I do, I will probably ignore the America going straight to Hell stuff. I only mention this because it came on a day when I was contemplating the future myself. Everyone already knows that I plan to emigrate soon. I have yet to completely articulate the reasons why; not even to myself. So here goes:

Before November, the GOP will pull out all of the stops to retain control of Congress. They will succeed. Even the seats in Congress that they lose, will go to Democrats that have a “Me too” or “I am worse” platform. Fortunately, one of these clowns has dropped out of the Democratic primary in my district. Sadly, the sitting Republican is a jerk too and will be easily re-elected. We can count on paying for more prisons, more casualties in Iraq, more domestic spying and more corporate welfare. Additionally, civil liberties are already gone in practice, but we can expect them to be formally revoked permanently during the last two years of the Bush administration.

Terrorism will gain new ground. A nuclear attack in the US is likely. Assassinations are also likely. Militant Islamic terrorists will do most of the damage, but we will also see home-grown terrorists emerge as a significant problem. We may not get many American suicide bombers but we will see many more mosques and synagogues burned to the ground. Sectarian murders will greatly increase.

Police powers and prerogatives will be even more extensive than they already are. Terrorism will be used as an excuse to redefine “Cruel and Unusual Punishment” to the point of meaninglessness. There will be no such thing as illegal search and seizure. “Coercion Tactics” and “softening up, will leave Guantanamo Bay and Abu Grab and become de rigueur in every jerk-water sheriff’s department. Even if the so-called “Right to remain silent” survives on paper, the challenge to maintain it under torture will effectively eliminate it. SCOTUS will decide that gaining confessions under torture and murdering criminal suspects for not talking will be legal if done in “Good Faith”.

The television networks will continue its orgy of revenge programming. TV programs about pedophiles will outnumber actual pedophiles. “COPS” or some other law enforcement oriented show will become bold enough to actually broadcast the actual shooting of a criminal suspect. Reality shows will get even more “real”. There will be weekly programs that follow the struggles of released sex offenders, including the mandatory psychology sessions and police roust outs. People will tune in to watch talk shows that are dedicated to stories about prison rape, childhood molestation by priests and pretty, seductive female teachers. Don’t be surprised to see Dr. Phil perform fellatio on an anatomically correct doll to “educate” the public and help “victims to heal”.

Soon there will be two kinds of people, the deluded and the terrified. The deluded will continue to wave a flag that has no symbolic meaning and praise the efforts of the government to “protect them”. They will be the majority of the future victims of society but will never know it and never acknowledge it. The terrified will keep their traps shut. That includes me. I am no martyr. The terrified will try to hide in plain sight and avoid confrontation at all hazards. The terrified will go to churches that they don’t believe in, because they feel they have to. They will drop their internet carrier, avoid the telephone and always pay cash. They are going to have to forget about their “rights” and concentrate on survival. Maybe my buddy was right?

Burn Out

2006-07-09T02:25:00.000-07:00

A few posts ago, I noted that I was getting tired of the fight. Now, I am just about burned out. I have just taken a writing sabbatical and am not too enthusiastic about covering the MM anymore. Though I have set aside my book and neglected the MR site for over a month, I have been unable to re charge. I still frequent the message boards and post much, but nothing too new. Maybe I am shutting down.

I’m no longer driven by anger and passion. My MM participation is turning into labor. Could it be that the pop psychology idiots are right this once? Is it possible that I needed a personal catharsis and having gained it, no longer need to babble? I sure hope not.

There is no denying that, at least for now, I have lost interest in the MM. I am also not crazy about political writing or covering other social trends. I have certainly beaten my head against a brick wall long enough to get a headache. There is more to it than that though. I never thought I could change the world. I can only guess, but perhaps I have over-exposed myself to the seeming futility of the MM. Maybe I have taken too large a dose of Neo Con politics.

Whatever the reason, I find it hard to continue. But continue I will. I consider it a duty to pass on what I have learned to other men. Granted, most men don’t care to hear from me. Still, what I have to say has value even if it is only briefly considered among thousands of other messages.

Darren Mack

2006-06-29T12:25:00.000-07:00

Darren Mack, despite what the pundits i.e. Glenn Sacks, say is a true martyr for the cause. He gave all, his very life ultimately, to draw attention to injustice. Some say he went too far. Others say what he did was terrorism. Still others say he is a hate blinded criminal. These people are all MRAs mind you, not feminists screaming for more blood.

Darren Mack is a man of some means. With a little legal razzle-dazzle he could have retained much or most of his wealth, despite the best efforts of mangina Weller. He turned himself in in Puerto Vallarta. What was to stop him from closing shop and going down there with his worldly assets BEFORE his last court date? Honor and Justice.

He killed his parasite and tried to kill his tormentor. He didn't have to do that to try to retain his wealth. He could have just taken a powder. He did it to call attention to injustice. That begs the question, why didn't he use a legitimate form of protest? He did. It took one killed and another wounded to get noticed. If he had not done what he did, we would never have heard of Darren Mack. His message would be lost.

In my book, Darren Mack committed no crime. His actions qualify as a legitimate defense of honor. Instead of resolving matters like men, pistols at dawn, Weller and his ilk use proxies to do thier fighting. Like Paris cowering behind big brother Hector, Weller would never face Mack mangina to man. If Weller can use the pigs, then Mack can use a rifle and scope. Even Steven. I consider the matter honorably settled.

The gash? No sympathy for her either. She betrayed the man and called in outsiders to intervene in a private matter. There is no difference between her and the Austrians who invited the Nazis to annex the country.

Undoubtedly, Mack will get Death. He could have avoided it by appealing to the Mexican authorities. He chose not to. His mission was accomplished. Little else matters to him now. Perhaps his only regret is that he did not take more careful aim.

Do I suggest others follow in his footsteps? No. Your lives are more valuable as witnesses and evangelists for men. I sure as hell won't do it. However, I can only say that because I am positive that others will do it. Without the martyrs, the rest of us have no hope of freedom.

Open Letter to Evangelicals

2006-05-21T14:53:00.000-07:00

Dear Brothers in Christ,
A historic opportunity lies before us. This is our first and maybe last chance to invite God back into American life and reclaim the liberty we lost to Secular Humanism. All we have to do is cut our ties to one set of crooked politicians and force ourselves upon the other.

It is widely thought that the Bush Administration is bringing us closer to the edge of catastrophe every day. Many of us still support President Bush. Still, we need to face the fact that the Republican Party will very likely lose control of the government over the next 21/2 years. Add to that the idea that Hillary Clinton will have the con for at least four years afterward and it becomes crystal clear that we need to take some drastic action. The situation is not hopeless, however. There is absolutely nothing to stop us from joining and taking control of the Democratic Party and forcing it to speak to our agenda.

So why exactly must we abandon the Republicans? The most practical reason is that if we do not, then we risk a Hillary Clinton presidency. More importantly, the Republicans have done nothing to further our cause. If the Republicans are strong enough to get tax cuts for billionaires and the authority to tap all of our phones, then why can’t they use that strength to ban abortion or re sanctify marriage? The Republicans are all talk and no action on Christian issues. How many times have you heard a so-called conservative politician say, “I am against abortion but Roe v Wade is the law of the land”? Liar! Abortion is not the law of the land. Congress makes laws not courts. Roe v Wade is nothing more than the opinion of a gang of dead radicals.

The Republican Party has always operated on the “Show Me The Money” basis. The rank and file are treated with contempt. The Bush Administration and the Republican Congress have been able to pass nearly every economic initiative but nothing on the social side. The latest defiance of the public will is immigration reform. As an individual, your author happens to support the Bush position. To the overwhelming majority of Evangelicals, and all voters for that matter, the administration’s proposals are an anathema in the extreme. Almost no Evangelical supports them. Just the same, they will pass because the moneyed interests want them to, no matter how unpopular they are. A slap in the face to us all.

Since 9-11, the Bush Administration has deliberately and systematically stripped us all of our constitutional rights. It has extended government power and invasiveness to unprecedented extremes. Now, imagine all of this power and the government’s newly acquired domestic spying capabilities in the hands of Hillary. In no time, America will be one, big, feminist village.

At the start, I wrote of opportunity. So, how does defecting to the Democrats, who have always been hostile to us, present us with an opportunity? Unlike the Republicans, who have a high degree of economic and political discipline, the Democrats blow with any wind. The Republicans serve a single ideology. The Democrats, on the other hand, pander to a coalition diverse interest groups and factions. The basic tenants of Feminism, Environmentalism, Academia, Gay Rights etc. are wildly divergent. Democratic politicians step and fetch for the group that happens to that is most prominent locally. In San Francisco it is the Gays. In Boston, the Academics. In Detroit, big Labor. In Washington, the Feminists. Now, picture this: The Evangelicals pour into the Democratic Party. They ally with the urban Catholics -- the bulk of the Reagan Democrats. Is there a bigger special interest group than that? If the majority of Evangelicals register Democratic, our numbers will swamp those of any and all other groups. The politicians will have to serve us from then on. If they don’t then we nominate and run Democratic candidates of our own. Because of our sheer numbers, the radical left will be forever consigned to oblivion.

If we really want “In God We Trust” to stand for something again, there are a few things we must and must not do:

1) We must move to the Democratic Party and rework its political agenda. As noted earlier, the Democratic agenda is malleable as putty. We must use it.

2) We must insist that the Constitution be read literally. There are no “implied powers”. Due process of law applies to everyone -- even those in divorce court or the child welfare monstrosity.

3) We must force Congress to accept the line in the Declaration of Independence that “all men are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.” Congress must formally proclaim that the source of human and civil rights is God and not the government. Since God gave them, only He can take them away. Since they are unalienable, a person cannot even waive them because they are not his to waive.

4) We must resolve to support no politician that does not, in both word and deed, subordinate himself to God.

5) We must not be corrupted by Godless ideologies.

6) We must not allow any narrow interest group to place a plank on the Democratic national platform. The gays can sodomize each other without our sanction. The feminists can continue to hate the entire world with out us giving them a political outlet.

7) We must adopt the Men’s Movement and focus its political goals. Easier said than done, but it must be done. Otherwise there is no hope for marriage, education or benign government.

8) We must make legal reform a priority. As of now, trial lawyers will not permit any meaningful injection of fairness and equity into civil and criminal proceedings. Suppose that trial lawyers are unable to obtain elective office? There is absolutely no reason why any American should not be able to stand before a jury of his peers and explain himself and expect a fair hearing.

9) We must not permit government to continue to grow. We are already footing the bill for too many things that we detest.

10) We must not waver from our Christian philosophy in order to form alliances with other interests. We do not need the support of any other interest group. They must bend toward righteousness not us bend toward abomination.

On War -- Rich changes his mind.

2006-05-14T14:21:00.000-07:00

After much study and reconsideration, your author repudiates his recent stand on responding to a nuclear attack against the US by Islamic extremists. I fully and publicly recant. It is still my opinion that the blanket retaliation strategy would reduce the likelihood of future attacks. I no longer believe, however, that this outcome, by itself, is of any benefit to the US or any other nation. Even if such a response can be justified under “Just War” theory, that does not make it appropriate or smart. I say this for two reasons:

Firstly, it harms the Men’s Movement globally. If the US mobilizes itself into one big weapon, when Islam is defeated this concentrated power will be turned against men as a class. A precedent for this can be seen in the aftermath of WWI. Prohibition, women’s suffrage, abuse of the Taft-Hartley Act and the Mann Act, the Great Depression and the shameful military attack on the bonus marchers can all be traced to the Wilson tyranny and its alliance with the women’s suffrage movement. We do not want to create that kind of political environment again.

Secondly, the current US regime already places itself above international law and views human rights with disdain. It neither needs nor cares for our endorsement of the human atrocities it intends to commit. The openly stated US policy of permanent, global hegemony suggests neutral nations and even friendly nations must side with Islam. To do otherwise would be to forfeit their own autonomy and sovereignty.

Getting Nowhere and Getting Tired

2006-05-10T23:14:00.000-07:00

I have been an MRA in one form or another for ten years now. Naturally, I take for granted that I won’t win many female converts. What about the men? Why have I failed so miserably? When I make a new friend, I don’t start right in poking holes in the air with my finger. I proceed gingerly, with the soft sell. I don’t proselytize. Mostly, I ask my friend to look carefully at his environment and think about where he fits in. Even men who are physically, mentally, emotionally or legally crippled; or all of the above, don’t get the message.

My life is a MGTOW dream and my home is a single man’s paradise. Still, I am not satisfied. The time and money that I wasted has helped few and alienated many. Perhaps it is not the message but the messenger? Maybe I am just not cut out to be an activist. But then again. If not me, who? How many men have the resources and the latitude to do it? Damned few. Or the inclination to do it? Fewer still.

Friends and comrades, I suggest that every MRA read Browning’s Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came

On War

2006-05-02T15:15:00.000-07:00

War is cruel and brutal endeavor. As mentioned in another thread, ancient wars civilians were routinely targets of war. And yes, for 30 years Augustus Caesar beat his head against the wall screaming, "Qintinious Varis where are my eagles!" Total war is nothing new.

As surprising as it may seem, war in the dark ages, reputedly a barbaric time, was more humane than it has ever been. It was strictly a rich man's game. Serfs were generally left alone and with good reason. They were valuable property and part of the plunder to be divided upon victory. The Crusades, the Vikings and the Mongols returned us to our "traditional values" and war has been the same since.

So what about now in the nuclear age? Well, the Soviets didn't kill us all off. A few close calls, but we smoothed it over. They were the big threat and now it is over. Now we have the Islamic fanatics. Can we wheel and deal with them the way we did with he Soviets? Not likely. Especially not now when we have our own religious fanatics running our government. Moral conviction has a way of turning to malice and spite on the geopolitical scene. There can be no meaningful negotiation. What are our options?

Well, those who know me and my writings know that I opposed the war in Iraq. I still do. What people may not know is that I am native born American and a disabled veteran of the US Navy. If we are hit with a nuke, we have to fight. Even I won't hold back or equivocate on that. Lets look at our options:

Complete conquest of the Islamic world is out of the question. We just do not have the numbers necessary to occupy and rule 1/3 of the globe. If this administration can bungle Iraq, how are they going to run Indonesia with a population nearly as large as ours and better technology than Iraq ever had? We are going to have to fight by remote control.

Our only hope of success is a one day war. We will need to destroy every Islamic population center on the globe -- friend or foe. When America is under attack we do not have the luxury of making such distinctions. We will also have to attack their food supplies to make sure each young suicide bomber's top priority is to feed his mother rather than join the fight. I would also suggest that targeting and throw weight be decided in consultation with our best environmental scientists. We will need to limit our nuclear assault to what our domestic Civil Defense and Emergency Management can handle when the fallout blows our way.

We will have to be just as ruthless at home. We will take some hits, but we can prevail. Martial Law, house to house searches for potential Islamic terrorists, internment camps, arming the entire able-bodied native male population. We draft every able bodied woman and give her a crash course in nursing radiation sickness. Civil liberties go on hold. Feminism will also have to be suppressed. We will need to take our national security much more seriously than to let women get in the way. When some dumb bitch insists that her husband finish the dishes before going to the town defense meeting, she needs a fat lip not encouragement from the police. They will have bigger fish to fry too.

We will probably have to live like this for several years. There is also no guarantee that Russia or China will remain neutral when the fallout passes into their territory. That is a risk we have to take. Better to deal with them than the fanatics. This one day war effort will take more effort and sacrifice than both world wars combined. But is there even one American who is not willing to pay the price?

America’s Darkest Hour

2006-04-26T09:53:00.000-07:00

The Bush administration is out of control. Criminals are running wild. Our borders are invisible stripes that foreigners cross at will. There are rumors that Bin Laden has the bomb. Fear grips country. This must indeed be America’s darkest hour -- Sorry, not even close.

When Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus during the Civil War, it was then. -- Nope.

McCarthyism and the red scare, it was then. -- Uh-Uh.

The most dangerous and most repressive time to be an American was the Wilson Administration during and just after WWI. Congress voted ( or abdicated ) dictatorial powers to Wilson. The judiciary no more than a right arm of the Justice Department. It is hard for Americans of this day and age, even living under the PATRIOT Act, to understand what those times were really like. So, I will give some examples updated to their 21st century equivalents.

If you go into a bakery and ask for a loaf of French Bread, instead of asking for a loaf of “Freedom Bread”, the baker will report you to the local chairman of the American Protective League for investigation.

You stop getting your monthly issue of “National Review” because that magazine is being intercepted at the Post Office along with all others on the confiscation list.

If you muse, in the privacy of your own home, that you know a better way to handle the Iraq problem; your baby daughter will be encouraged to inform on you to her teacher. You will then be investigated and charged under the Espionage Act or the Sedition Act for “disloyal utterances”.

The neighborhood Vigilance Committee noticed that you were not present at the Liberty Bond rally. They decide to visit you. If you do not own “enough” Liberty Bonds, you are taken into custody.

We have seen severe erosion of civil liberties in recent years, but still nothing like those of WWI. America did recover from the Wilson Era, but not fully until 1933 when Prohibition was finally repealed. Can free America make a comeback after Bush? Certainly, but how long it will take is anyone’s guess.

Blue Print for the New American Empire

America has repudiated every major international treaty in the name of domestic security. This is, by far, the biggest foreign policy blunder since the League of Nations. The US is now a rogue state. America is the only nation that openly flouts UN resolutions. Even Libya and Iran recognize them, even if they evade them on the sly.

Whatever one thinks of the Carter administration, even the most fierce critics have to concede that its focus on human rights and its instrumental role in the Camp David accords, gave Washington more diplomatic and moral capital than any other administration since FDR’s. Now that international goodwill is exhausted. We are a world pariah. With most of the world’s people as bitter enemies, we will never be able to stem terrorism or effectively shore up our national security.

Still, all is not lost. We can redeem ourselves diplomatically and regain our national destiny by working toward a New American Empire that will control the entire western hemisphere. I don’t propose this empire be created by a form of neo colonialism, but by economic cooperation. I am also not pushing for an EU style collectivist scenario where we cede our national identity to a confederacy of foreign nations and cultures. What I do suggest is that America lead a team of fully sovereign countries in the western hemisphere toward unprecedented economic growth and political reform. The goal is to help Latin America join us in freedom and prosperity while we reinforce our own position at the top of the international food chain. Here is the plan:

Step 1: We negotiate a free trade treaty with every western hemisphere nation. No import or export duties at all. Free movement of labor and capital. That will give us full access to Mexican, Canadian and Venezuelan oil and access to all of the important industrial metals in Peru, Bolivia and Brazil. We won't need the Arabs or the Nigerians anymore.

Step 2: We raise not lower the requirements for American citizenship. I suggest 15 years residence and honorable service in the American military. Also change the law that allows anyone born here to get citizenship automatically. The children of aliens will not be born American citizens.

Step 3: We change the Social Security law in such a way as to insure that aliens pay into the system but cannot collect benefits. That will prop up the system for current and future retirees. For the aliens? Just a cost of doing business in the US.

Step 4: We open the border to anyone born in the western hemisphere. An Argentine is welcome. A Syrian or German gets the bum's rush out, no exceptions. At the same time we will insist that Americans can come and go as they please everywhere else in the hemisphere. This helps everyone. American industry gets an influx of new labor. The other countries will get economic development from Americans going south to open factories, mines and export businesses that will employ local labor but be American owned and managed. Just imagine the surplus food production, when Americans buy and farm land in Argentina and Brazil using advanced American agricultural techniques. We could literally feed the whole world.

Step 5: Political reform. We reserve the election of President, Senators and Congressmen to American Citizens alone. We allow any resident of legal age to vote in local elections. We want to exclude immigrants from influencing our national elections, but what is the harm if they get a vote for their local school board? After all, they will be taxpayers too. This little concession will allow immigrants to develop a sense of loyalty to their communities and will give them a little taste of democracy that they can bring back to their homeland and cause their own governments to reform. They will be more willing to join our armed forces in a crisis.

Step 6: Grant tax immunity to American teachers and private schools in Latin America. This will allow Americans to go to Latin America and teach the English language and important industrial skills to prospective immigrants. The schools will be more profitable, the teachers will have a decent standard of living and more immigrants will arrive in America conversant in English and with important job skills.

Step 7: Take complete responsibility for the defense and security of the entire western hemisphere. This would be nothing more than a reworking of the Monroe Doctrine in force since the early 19th century. Since the US is the only known nuclear power in this hemisphere, we should try to keep it that way. Canada and Latin America should be encouraged to disband their armed forces with an unqualified American guarantee of security backed by the US armed forces. This would prevent coups and militate against dictatorships. It would also free up badly needed capital to develop infrastructure; infrastructure that American business can use to transport its goods and communicate with its foreign facilities.

Step 8: Get rid of the European colonies. This will be our sphere of influence. No foreign power should be permitted a foothold. We don’t want Dutch Muslims to mass in Aruba or French communists to pour into French Guiana. We just don’t let it happen even if it means ejecting the Europeans by force.

Step 9: Negotiate a Pan American agreement on law enforcement. As Latin America becomes more and more democratized and more mindful of human rights, it will become increasingly more possible to create uniform procedures for extradition and law enforcement. That would be our best chance to finally end the war on drugs with a victory rather than defeat due to the political expediency of a blanket legalization.

Step 10: Negotiate environmental protection treaties that we will actually be willing to obey and enforce. The US needs to protect the environment in both Latin America and at home. If we don’t, it will impair our economic growth and that of Latin America. If Brazil clear cuts the Amazon Basin it will have a very negative impact on regional hydrology and important fisheries. If Mexico continues to be the multi-national corporation’s answer to the town dump, then we will never be able to protect air and water quality in the American Southwest or Gulf Coast.

This plan can work. We might have to make a few adjustments on the way -- no food stamps for aliens, English only education and so forth, but America will be able to maintain its economy, lifestyle, culture and world leadership. America’s place will be secure for many generations.

The Dissolving Economy

2006-04-01T13:28:00.000-07:00

The price of precious metals is on a steady rise. The National Debt is nearly $8.5 trillion growing by $2.4 billion per day. Despite the rosy official forecast, Social Security is foundering. This is all very good news for the men’s movement.

The deficit is blamed on many things, the Bush tax cuts, the war, welfare, Katrina etc. There is a cause that no one dares mention, the War on Males. Let’s have a look:

The fastest growing part of the public sector is prisons. Prisons bleed the economy in several ways. The most important are capital costs of building new prisons; wages, salaries and fees for prison, law enforcement and judicial staff; and the removal of productive labor -- the very tax base -- from the economy. We also need to include the unfair competition with the private sector by slave labor in prison industries.

Many men are falling away from the mainstream economy, especially in the skilled trades. A good auto mechanic looks at the 80K he is paid in wages and the 50K that he can make on his own and decides that the commute and kowtowing to some PMSing manager does not justify the difference. He goes on his own and takes his payroll tax with him. There is a growing rout of men who will no longer tolerate the feminized corporate world under any circumstances. A mechanical engineer will chuck it and clean swimming pools three days a week. A copyright attorney will piss on the bar when he owns 12 rental properties. Result? Less tax collected. The most egregious payroll tax ever, CS, is getting harder and harder to collect, because there is one job, entrepreneur, that is never entered into the Federal New Hire Registry.

Nobody is going for graduate degrees in science or engineering anymore. These almost entirely masculine fields are now dominated by foreigners. Too many men suffer the Feminazi boot camp until they get their B.S. and then decide to move on instead of seeking more education. Result? American industry goes begging for research scientists and loses competitiveness while the universities graduate PhDs in Nuclear Engineering named Habib.

So what makes economic meltdown good for men? Two things: 1) The persecution MUST end. and 2) Men will be invited, however grudgingly, back into American life.

The American government will not be able to continue to persecute men, because it cannot afford it. One man can live day to day. A bureaucracy can’t. When enough men withdraw from the tax base, holding the public sector together will be impossible. Who is going to pay all of the police, the greedy geezers and providers of all of the civil services? Maybe all of the Gender Studies graduates will step in and revolutionize capitalism. When half of the men are in prison and the other half are guarding them, the only way to avoid ending the persecution will be to go communist and apply military force. Then everyone will be persecuted.

For good or bad, Maureen Dowd’s question will be answered. Like it or not, the politicians will start to beg American men to rejoin society. First they will start with empty propaganda like the National Fatherhood Initiative. Men won’t bite. Then they will pass toothless laws that the bureaucrats can freely ignore say, Presumption of Joint Custody or VAMA. Men won’t bite. Then we will see affirmative action programs in government, business and education. Men won’t bite. Finally, the government will be forced to offer real concessions to men in a last ditch attempt to save itself. Collectively men will scream, “Take it all and shove it up your ass!” Then it all hits the fan. Time for some real change.

Why Is Immigration a Men’s Issue?

2006-03-31T13:40:00.000-07:00

Dear Reader, I am completely stumped. The big topics on the men’s sites are not about improving the lot of men. They are Islam and immigration. Since I have covered Islam often enough and do understand why people want to talk about it, this time I will take on immigration.

I have a vision of standing on the Mexican border face-to-face with a Mexican. At the same time we both blurt out, “Buddy, Go Back!”. Now, I understand why he wants to come over here. He is poor and wants to make some money. My guess is that he understands why I want to go to Mexico, freedom.

Lots of guys want out. That is why Project Shawshank was born. What escapes me is the difference between the Mexican and the prospective American expat. He brings his culture up here. We gringos bring ours down there. We don’t like the strain he puts on social services. He doesn’t like our material commercialism. We are even.

Americans are funny when it comes to taking in immigrants. Always have been. Be it the Irish and the Chinese in the 19th century or the Italians and Mexicans in the 20th century, we don’t want them to take our jobs but we go ahead and hire them to keep our houses, watch our children and cut our lawns.

Americans also have a very short attention span when it comes to immigration. We holler all about how the immigrants are going to break the back of America. Only a year later, the very same Americans who got away and are now expats, do an about face. They might be sipping an espresso in Rio while reading the English language newspaper . They will see a headline like “Mexican Immigrants Riot in Los Angeles” and will pass it by without comment or maybe not even read it at all.

Bottom line -- If so many of us want to go expat, then why do we even care who takes on the chains that we threw off?

Evangelicals and the Men's Movement

2006-03-25T01:11:00.000-07:00

A big component of the MM is the Evangelical right. Though it is hard to say whether they comprise a majority of MRA’s in America, the number is certainly significant. Being a liberal, you would probably think that I see this as a bad thing. Wrong. The Evangelicals are the only segment of the MM that gets any press or makes any progress. We need them badly.

I sometimes think I am the only feather in the liberal wing of the MM. Still, there are certainly a great number of secular conservatives in the movement. There needs to be a dialog between the secular and religious sides of the movement. We must convince the Evangelicals to adopt a wider men’s agenda. They are ready to do so.

In its infancy Evangelical politics was anti everything. Back then it was easier to mobilize people to be against something. Big government, welfare, taxes, it didn’t matter. Remember NCPAC? They campaigned against candidates, never for them.

Times change. Evangelical politics is now in full bloom. Evangelicals have the strength to be for something now. They are Americas king makers. Evangelicals are anti feminist and strongly support the family. The trick is that we need to convince them to support the families that are, but also the families that should be -- the ones with fathers in them. They have gotten covenant marriages legislated in several states. Now we have to get them interested in divorce. Make them forget about the godless fags going to court to be married. Get them to focus on the godless bitches going to court to be divorced.

We can make the sale. We just need to respect their beliefs. On social policy they are very close to those of secular MRA’s. That is the easy part. What will be hard is to look the other way when they want to teach creationism and read the Bible in schools. Let them do it. Is it really any worse than the feminazi curriculum? If you can’t stand the thought then think of this:

If the Evangelicals win out they will teach your kid some things you won’t agree with. Then you, as a parent, have the right to teach your kid your values and point of view at home. If the Evangelicals don’t win out then the feminazis will teach your kid things you won’t agree with but you will not even be there to teach him any differently.

Bring Back the Lash

2006-03-20T05:49:00.000-07:00

“All Hands Witness Punishment!” was what the Boatswain cried out before they opened a sailor’s back with a cat-o-nine. Aren’t we fortunate that we don’t do that sort of thing anymore? We are more civilized now. Or are we?

Back in the old days, there were three common punishments, execution, fines and flogging. Execution was not limited to murder and treason. Grand Theft, for instance stealing a horse, or Sodomy could merit execution too. The rich were usually beheaded and the poor were hanged. Everything else was dealt with by flogging or fines. The rich paid a fine and the poor were whipped.

Nowadays, capital punishment is reserved for the most ghastly murders or murders committed by black men. On the whole, this is a good thing. It will finally be acceptable when capital punishment is completely banned.

Fines are still with us, but no longer exclusively for the rich. Anybody can get a parking ticket. If you want to see how important it was to be rich in the old days, pick up any book of laws. You will see such things as “punishable by 5 years in prison or a $5000.00 fine or both. Then try to mentally equate the fine with the prison term. The rich man paid the puny fine and the poor man did hard time. I don’t even want to know who got the “or both”. On fines, we are no better than we used to be, but also no worse. I call it a push.

Prison replaced flogging. Way back when, a pickpocket might get 20 lashes. The authorities would inflict terrible suffering for about half an hour. Then they would cut the prisoner down and let him go. The prisoner took his punishment and that was the end -- except that the wounds would take a couple of weeks to heal. Today, the same pickpocket would get two years. During his 2 year stay at the “Country Club”, where he gets free HBO, gourmet meals and all of the dope he can smoke, he gets repeatedly gang raped, beaten more brutally than by the lash and learns everything about being a criminal that he was afraid to ask. No good prison has ever been built. Everyone who leaves prison leaves worse than when he went in. Good man or bad man, guilty or innocent, he is worse. Worse for himself and worse for the rest of us.

A good flogging, however, teaches an immediate lesson. When the Sheriff cuts him down, he goes home to support his family and think about his wounds and crimes. Unlike prison, he is not forced into camaraderie with people who will help him perfect his criminal trade. Flogging is cheaper too. I have heard estimates that place imprisonment near $50,000.00 per head per year, more for women. You can get a decent quality whip for less than $200.00. A suitable 8X8 post can be had at Lowe’s for about $50.00.

Then there is the issue of the innocent man wrongfully convicted. If he goes to prison, he gets the gang rapes, the beatings, the works. When he comes out he is either turned criminal, addict or is too broken to be anything of use. After a flogging, he does not become broken. He becomes indignant. It only strengthens his resolve to do right. It may sound barbaric, but flogging beats incarceration by every measure.

Goodbye Loompanics

2006-03-11T02:59:00.000-07:00

One of the last examples of what Freedom of the Press was intended to mean, Loompanics Inc. is shutting down. This from http://www.loompanics.com

Owning Loompanics has been the biggest thrill of my life – for 30 years I got to live my dream (and stick it to the man!). I want to thank everyone who made it possible: Our customers, authors, artists, reviewers, interviewers, vendors, and most of all, the super efficient Loompanics staff...

...and everyone who made it necessary! All the censors, prudes, prigs and pigs in the world, especially the U.S.A...

I hoped this day would never come, but sales have been steadily falling for several years, and we just can't keep the place going any longer! Thank you one and all, for thirty fantastic years!
– Mike Hoy, Pres.

Very sad indeed. I first discovered Loompanics about 20 years ago. When visiting my favorite head shop, the owner turned me on to their cheesy printed catalog. What a revelation! Back in those days, when I wasn’t busy making life hard for myself, I read and read and read. I was in every damned book club, but I never saw anything like this! There was something for every kind of screwball the human race ever produced and nothing you could find anywhere else. They had stuff for paranoid anarchists, Marxist nudists, fascist wannabes, druggies, fugitives, everything.

Over the years I got a lot of stuff from those guys. The first book I got was called “Getting Even”. The cover had a picture of an establishment type alpha male with a giant screw sticking out of his head. I had to have it. That was a gem. I got a couple of different books on writing effective poison pen letters. I used them much. I got one book especially for my divorce called “Screw the Bitch!”. Unfortunately, it didn’t arrive in time for me to make proper use of it.

At Loompanics nothing is too hot to handle. Exotic weapons, torture, hacking and revenge were available, naturally with a faint disclaimer. They also had some very practical titles that could help you through an emergency. “So You’re Going to Prison” comes immediately to mind. They had mounds of stuff on Fake ID and privacy. Stuff a guy just might need in a pinch.

Not everything was shocking or extreme. Some of it was simply very uncommon knowledge. Another interesting book that they sold me was a backdoor to the ultimate in establishment respectability, “How to Become a Diplomat”. Half of the cover showed a guy emptying barrels into a garbage truck and the other half showed the same dude wearing a tuxedo at a high class event. And you know what? It really, really worked. A garbage man really could be a diplomat. Back then the communist block had just collapsed and all of these new countries were appointing Honorary Consuls all over the world. All you had to do was sell yourself to a newly formed foreign ministry. No problem if you are an ethnic with a little persuasion. Who knows this stuff? You couldn’t get that anyplace else.

I guess I made my last order tonight. This one is called “Rancho Costa Nada”. It is about how to build a house out in the desert almost for free. Who knows? I might need it someday.

So where will the next generation find out how to make a smooth drawing bong or earn a living as an FBI snitch?

First $100

2006-03-08T12:00:00.000-07:00

MR has reached a milestone, the first $100 in ad revenue. I haven’t decided whether to use it to pay for more traffic from a pay per click scheme or to pay for search engine optimization. The important thing is to spread the word to the right people. As the site matures, living conditions for men will continue to deteriorate. More and more men will be compelled to take their chances in an alien society. MR will be badly needed.

Many thanks to Duncan Idaho at The Eternal Bachelor for ushering traffic to MR. Since he put a link on his site, traffic has gone from 2 or 3 visit’s a day to around 20 a day. I hope that someday soon, I will be able to send him as many visitors as he sent me.

The Forgotten Meaning of Masculinity

2006-02-27T19:56:00.000-07:00

Almost daily, I make the rounds of the MM websites. My inspections reveal a very narrow and very mistaken view on masculinity. A rough composite of masculinity in the eyes of MRAs seems to be:

Middle-aged, neo-conservative, gun control opponent with an abrasive and intolerant attitude. He also has an authoritarian personality, fundamentalist religious principles and a severe case of xenophobia.

Since this is a composite, I do not suggest that any particular MRA or website promotes all of these characteristics. What I do say is that each of these is commonly seen on the message boards and in the articles. Very little is written about such masculine characteristics as stoic self-control, an unwavering sense of honor, cold and rational resolve, discipline and moral courage. The latter set of virtues was at the very heart of the definition of masculinity no more than a generation ago. Where have they gone? Why have they been all but forgotten and replaced by the superficial ones we have today?

No. We can’t blame feminism for it. Men adopted these traits for themselves. Political correctness? Nope. The old virtues were dropped from the masculine profile before PC came into its own. The new traits, if anything, are anti-PC. Can’t pin it on the government or the media either. They exploit trends in society; they do not create them.

The answer is that the old virtues are not gone. They are not even sleeping. They are very much alive and still dwell within the soul of every good man. An appeal to a man’s better nature is still far more effective than force will ever be. The change is the result of men reacting collectively to an assault on their dignity from all quarters. This assault does not come from ideological sources alone. The roles of workplace automation, geographic isolation from the rise of suburbia and the triumph of consumerism cannot be overstated.

Since the old virtues have never been perfected in any man, save one, men have been incited to passion to defend their dignity -- even if it means making asses of themselves. What we are seeing are the strategy and tactics men have resorted to in order to raze the siege. It is in defense of the old virtues that we resort to the new definition of masculinity. This is not a bad thing because it will pass as new weapons and tactics appear. The important thing is that we remember what we are fighting for -- our right to hold our ancestral virtues.

No More Circumcision

2006-02-20T13:56:00.000-07:00

Circumcision is intentional mutilation and torture. It is inhuman. It must be stopped now and for all time -- everywhere. Don't give me any freedom of religion shit. Cortez was right to stop the Aztecs from performing religious human sacrifices. It does not matter that he used naked force. It was right. So we must do the same with circumcision. We must stamp it out. Worldwide -- even in Israel and Islamic countries. Inhumanity is inhumanity no matter where it occurs.

I do not believe in social or cultural politics. Though I tend toward the political left, I hesitate to endorse any law to regulate free human choice. Still, even I draw the line sometimes. This is one of those times. Free human choice does not include cutting up a baby for any reason. If some guy turns 21 and is still enough of a barbarian to believe in circumcision, then let him disfigure himself. Never a baby -- ever!

The Woman in Your Life

2006-02-08T14:03:00.000-07:00

Is it possible for a revitalized man to have a woman in his life? Sure. Every man who has a heart and arrow tattoo that says MOM proves that. You can love your mother, sisters, aunts, nieces and cousins without risk. But can you have a wife or girlfriend? A wife? -- probably not. A girlfriend? -- maybe but with conditions.

The model you want to follow is the motorcycle club. I won’t say biker gang because it is not necessary to cultivate a totally bad ass or criminal image. In many clubs the member’s colors say “Cobra” or whatever the guy’s handle is. His girlfriend has a jacket that says “Property of Cobra”. That is the attitude to emulate. My way or the highway. Absolute obedience, sex upon demand, total loyalty, no nagging, no bitching and no questions.

Don’t forget. You have to make them prove themselves every day. Some bikers require a personalized tattoo on her tits. Others merely keep them fetching cigarettes and beer. Some will even get her to blow them with the entire club watching. It is all about compliance. Are there really any chicks like that around? Yes. Most of them are that way but don’t even know it. When properly trained, they will think they did something wrong if you DON’T take liberties.

No Kids -- No Way!

2006-02-01T13:50:00.000-07:00

Children are wonderful. Ex-wives are not so wonderful. We have come to the point where having a child is tantamount to taking a second mortgage on your house and betting it all on one turn of a Las Vegas roulette wheel. Yet many men take this risk daily expecting to win.

We see children as a source of pride. Women see children as a career opportunity. I will not bother to recount the consequences of childbirth to men -- they are well known. The ramifications for children are even more extreme.

If you have a boy there is a good chance that:

You will never know him.
He will not receive any practical education.
He will face discrimination orders of magnitude greater than you do.
He will be drugged until he becomes a zombie.
He will turn to crime at a young age.
He will one day wind up in your shoes.
He will be uncivilized.

If you have a girl there is a good chance that:

You will never know her.
She will be trained to hate all men, especially you.
She will destroy other’s lives with impunity.
She will be overly promiscuous.
She will drop a litter of bastards that you will have to pay for.
She will be beaten by her boyfriends.
She will be uncivilized.

Boy or girl, there is always the chance that you will never be able to hug your child, but mommy’s boyfriend will have sex with him or her daily. How can we even think of the possibility of putting any child through this, even if the chances are small? Add to this the realities of over-population, environmental degradation and the self-destruction of society itself; it becomes clear that merely having a child at all is child abuse.

Time to coldly assess the situation. You can never really have a child. All of your offspring are the exclusive property of the government and the wards of some black-robed terrorist. Continue the family line? Forget it. With over 6 billion people in the world, the loss of your DNA will not cause a bio-diversity crisis. You won’t let those terrible things happen to your children? That’s what we all say.

Abstain if you can. The feminazis hate that more than rape. If you can’t abstain, then go to the abortion/contraceptive clinic and get fixed. Make the ugly bitch do something constructive with those scissors around its neck.

The Men's Movement and Military Justice

2006-01-22T15:43:00.000-07:00

The subject of this post is not torture and murder but the administration of justice. We can take for granted that torture is rampant in American life. What should interest the Men’s Movement is the operation of the criminal justice itself.

A court martial convicted a U.S. Army interrogator, Chief Warrant Officer Lewis E. Welshofer Jr., of negligent homicide and dereliction of duty in the death of Iraqi Maj. Gen. Abed Hamed Mowhoush. Though he was tried for murder and faced life in prison, he was convicted of these lesser charges that carry three years. Did Welshofer get a fair trial?

That Mowhoush died under torture from Welshofer is clear. Whether or not the torture was authorized or ordered by his superiors is not so clear. Even if it were ordered from above, the Andersonville and Nuremburg Trials established and the UCMJ confirms that Welshofer had an obligation to refuse those orders. The court martial was correct not to completely excuse Welshofer on those grounds.

Now, we come to the evidence. The Army granted immunity to two soldiers in exchange for testimony against Welshofer. The soldiers also faced life. MRA’s should take note because this tactic is used routinely against men in child abuse cases.

There is also the matter of secret witnesses and evidence. In a military context, secrecy may be undesirable, but is often necessary. Welshofer’s attorney did have the opportunity to confront all of the accusers. Presumably, the officers of the court martial did get to examine the secret evidence. In civilian child abuse cases, the trial and evidence is secret and the defendant does not get to face his accusers. The jurors do not get to examine the evidence. They only get to listen to hearsay filtered through feminazi pseudo experts.

Finally, let’s look at the composition of the court martial itself. Six Army officers sat in judgment at this trial. This is highly significant, because to qualify as an Army officer, one must have some semblance of an education. Career military officers have a reputation for being authoritarian law-and-order types and they normally favor the prosecution. Still, they are at least capable of understanding the written and spoken word. They can objectively evaluate the evidence and deliberate with logic and reason. In the civilian world, these people would be the first ones eliminated from the jury pool. Civilian juries are composed entirely of the ignorant and the irrational. Only those who cannot make a distinction between facts and emotionally-charged rhetoric are eligible for jury service.

So, did he get a fair trial or not? We may never know for sure. What we can say, however, is that he got a better trial than any civilian defendant would have. How times have changed! Not too many years ago, a court martial was presumed to be abusive and unfair to the defendant. We all bought into the Paths of Glory point of view. Nowadays, it appears that a court martial is preferable to a civilian criminal trial for the quality of justice dispensed.

It is important that MRA’s take note of this case. I do not doubt that there are many who disagree with the verdict in the Welshofer Case. Some MRA’s are staunch advocates for the military, the war and especially the soldiers. Many men would have wished to see Welshofer acquitted. But in a larger sense, the verdict matters much less than the process. MRA’s need, beyond all else, to advocate for better justice. No civilian man would get a trial as fair and balanced as Welshofer had. That is the real tragedy.

Leo Blair Kidnapping Plot is a Hoax

2006-01-20T13:02:00.000-07:00

The alleged plot, by the U.K. group Fathers 4 Justice, to kidnap Tony Blair's young son, Leo, has been fully exposed as a complete fabrication by the British tabloid The Sun. The Sun even went so far as to offer a £10,000 bribe to F4J member, Martin Matthews, to perjure himself by confirming the hoax and by implicating F4J leader, Matt O’Conner. Matthews' statement can be found here.

This hoax is, of course, another example of the feminazi controlled media smearing a father's rights group and men in general. But there is more to it than just blind hate. There is a genuine fear there that The Sun tried to exploit for profit. Some may say that The Sun actually did fathers a service by conjuring this phony conspiracy. The fact that this story reached beyond the British tabloids and was picked up by the international media proves that the media fears fathers rights groups. It also puts politicians, jurists, lawyers, social workers and police on notice that you take a man's child at your own child's peril. The only reason that this story got so much attention is that the media knows that there really are fanatical madmen out there, who just might take thier revenge on an innocent child. Now, the government-sponsored kidnappers know it too. Some will imagine that they will not be so eager to destroy the next family.

If you think this is good news, then think again. Now, every father is a potential terrorist. This will not slow down the evil machine. It will speed it up and expand it. Family destruction will now have unprecedented scope. Until now, restraining orders were used to eject a man from his home and family. From now on, they will be used to incarcerate a man indefinitely, without trial or charge, as a preemptive measure. War on Terror - Enemy Combatant remember? David Letterman had better watch out. If he doesn't stop sending those brain waves to New Mexico, he will find himself being "interrogated without inhuman or degrading treatment" at some "non-existent" camp in Belarus.

The very worst consequence of The Sun’s irresponsibility has been to make the unthinkable thinkable. Don’t forget the insane trinity of Hinkley, Chapman and McVey. The international publicity has pointed out new options for the real lunatics. With as many as half a billion disenfranchised fathers in this world, it would be foolish to think that there will be no frothing fanatic who takes this story as an inspiration rather than a warning. Who, when, where and how can never be predicted. Madness is inherently unpredictable. What are we going to do when the next mental case has a big idea?

Go Ahead. Be a Nice Guy

2006-01-10T17:23:00.000-07:00

Nice guys finish last. So, who says you have to finish at all? Who does it suit if you finish first? There is lots of well intended advice out there that urges us to become egomaniacs and lose all sense of decorum. This is especially true of the dating gurus. Yes, the advice "works", so to speak, but is it a good enough reason to abandon your true nature?

Most of us are nice guys. That is all there is to it. We can't hide it for long no matter what we do. Why is this a bad thing? There is only one reason -- celibacy. Nice guys want to get laid too. It truly is a pity that nice guys are not appreciated for what they are. Women only consort with them when they are broke or have bastards to look after. Still, this warped state of affairs is reality. It IS and there is nothing we can do about it.

So, why don't we just take the advice and stop being so nice? Firstly, we lose the esteem of all men and all women who we care not to bone. Do we really want to alienate that many people? Most men prefer thier friends to be nice guys. Those who don't still respect them. No woman really respects any man. However, in the 99.99 % of all male-female interactions that do not involve sex, the nice guy beats the hellion hands down.

Secondly, there is a nebulous, unwritten law that forces women to become uncouth and degenerate either 1) after sex or 2) the fouth date, whichever comes first. Admit it. We have all seen it. By the fourth date the crude language appears, the complaint faucet is wide open, the nasty attitude comes out, and contempt for you as a person and men in general becomes obvious. The minute you have sex with them, then ugly mode is immediately in effect. Knowing all of this, do we want to change our whole personality for a romp in the sheets and maybe a couple of movies? It is very, very hard work. If you won't shave off that beard just to please your mother, why do you want to make a complete metamophisis to suit some barroom bimbo?

I have heard it said many times, even by some MRAs, that women civilize society. BUNK. It is the ethics and decency of the common man that makes civilization possible. Mr. Niceguy is the noblest soul that walks the planet. Be Mr. Niceguy with no apology. If you do then others will trust you, include you, sacrifice for you, give you the benefit of the doubt, even love you. The down side is that you flog the log more than you would like. Everything has its price.

PBS and Breaking the Silence

2006-01-04T17:00:00.000-07:00

Glenn Sacks is leading a campaign to protest Breaking the Silence, a particularly caustic piece of hate programming on PBS. Glenn's website has announced that PBS has gotten the message and has commissioned a new documentary "for the purpose of further examining the complex and important issues raised in the film". For now, let's keep the champagne corked.

If anyone thinks that this is a victory then they don't understand the full scope of misandry in the media, especially PBS. Odds are that any new treatment of the subject will be worse and even more spurious than the first. PBS did not say it would produce a rebuttal or give equal time to critics to show their own work. This is what they said:

"the hour-long treatment of the subject will allow ample opportunity for those of differing views to have their perspectives shared, challenged and debated."

"Ample opportunity" means maybe a five minute interview with a confessed pedophile from behind bars. Differing views will be "challenged and debated". This means that the origional thesis will not be subject to challenge or debate.

Before this piece of trash was aired, I heard it being promoted on Neo-Con talk-radio. They got some dickless male shill to advertize it for an hour. ( I did myself a favor and turned it off after 2 minutes.) I am certain that they hit every major market in the country. What are the chances that they will get Cathy Young to promote the new film with the same amount of exposure?

Sorry Glenn. All of your efforts were likely wasted.

Merry Christmas

2005-12-24T13:33:00.000-07:00

Brothers, let's let the Men's Movement rest for one day and remember that God is with us, even if no one else is.

Christmas is a time of miracles. Some of us will get a phone call. Maybe from a son in Iraq that proves he is still alive and unhurt. Maybe from a lost daugter who was taken away years ago by her mother and the courts. We may visit with our parents and siblings who have helped us cope with it all. Or our friends, God keep them all.

Even if this Christmas only means yourself, the tube, and college football try to remember that you are still loved and wanted. Loved and wanted by God and all of your MM brothers. This world will never be a happy one without you. That is the reason God sent you here to begin with.

Merry Christmas!

The American Moral Cesspool

2005-12-22T15:39:00.000-07:00

Let's give the Bush Administration some credit for exercising some measure of restraint when it comes to the war, torture, immigration. Yes, credit. Bush's popularity is at an all time low not because the administraion's record on human rights is an abomination, but because it is not atrocious enough.

The Secretary of State danced all around Europe trying to obscure the fact that the Bush Administration does run gulags all over the world, does encourage and engage in torture routinely, and does defy international law on the treatment of prisoners. Was this a noble thing for her to do? Yes! By doing so she, at minimum, acknowledges that there are some standards that civilized nations should at least pretend to adhere to. It is to her credit that she did not articulate the administration's real policy on torture and human rights. She could just as easily have said to Europe and the rest of the world that, the war on terror, the war on drugs and the war on all humanity is so important that it overrides international law and permits crimes against humanity when expedient. Had she done so, Europe would have fallen silent and a thundering cheer would have risen from every dive bar in America. The administration's popularity would have soared to new heights. The fact of the matter is that the American people want genocide. Much of the current administration and congress wants it too. Why this administration stops just short of it is a mystery, but the fact that it has resisted the domestic political forces is noteworthy.

The war in Iraq, another nagging political problem for the administration, is another excellent example of how the adminsitration does not merely bow to pubic opinion and pretends to try to do the right thing. The administration is in the process of installing a puppet government in Iraq. They insist that it will be a democratic government by and for the Iraqi people. This is a good thing because it is a backdoor admission that democracy is a desirable thing. The adminstration continues its efforts at nation building in the face of hostle public opinion. This is also praise worthy. The administration could easily redeem its image in the eyes of the average American if it made an about face and declared the Iraq war a war of conquest. It could install a dictatorship and permanent martial law. It could sieze the oil reserves for America's exclusive use. The administration could transport ex-convicts, sex offenders, drug addicts, illegal aliens, divorced fathers and every other type of subhuman to Iraq and install them as the ruling regime. They can ship garbage and nuclear waste to Iraq. Move all prisons to Iraq. Every NIMBY issue can be assauged. If the Bush Administration did all of this, there would be calls at home to ammend the constitution and make Bush president for life.

Iraq exit strategy could be made a non issue. Many cry out for complete withdrawl. This is not because we are taking too many casualties or even because we seem to be mired in a permanent guerilla war. The American people not only want thier money's worth but also some assurance that American blood can be properly avenged. The Bush Administration could put this issue to bed by broadcasting news footage of towns being razed, bloody reprisals for every American casualty, right-wing para military massacres of "insurgents" -- of all ages and both sexes. If the administration looked like it was putting the fear of God into those ragheads, American public opinion would deify the president. Why don't they? Could it be that the administration has some lines that even it will not cross? I hope so.

So why can't the Bush Administration secure our borders? Don't we need to stop all of those terrorists crossing our borders and dieing in our deserts? Wouldn't it be better to mow them down right at the border? The spanish-speaking Taliban is taking all of our good jobs like cutting lawns and washing cars. Soon we are going to have suicide bombers blowing up every Taco Bell in the country. Why doesn't Bush do something about it? Maybe he is not as blood thirsty as we want him to be? Perhaps he is actually a human being at the very bottom of it all?

Mr. President, I could never bring myself to vote for you. I think your administration is a step back toward the dark ages. Just the same, I understand that you govern the most savage population since the Mongols. It takes true moral courage for an elected official to thwart the pubic's true aspirations. Thank-you for holding them back -- even just a little.

Let's Talk About Bad Boys

2005-12-16T15:55:00.000-07:00

This topic has little to do with the Men's Movement, but seems to be on the mind of most of its members. Time to take a cold, hard look at it.

Why can ex-convicts boff any woman they see, while we stay home and wank? Why do women cling to and protect violent sociopaths, while our mates are prepared to toss us into the gutter on a mere whim? Why do addicts have room, board and drugs subsidized by a moon struck woman, when we slave to support some woman who will not even get us so much as a Tylenol when we are injured at work? This is the bad boy phenomenon.

Women's magazines deny that the phenomenon exists or ignore it. Men's magazines, when they admit to its existence, insist that not all women are caught up in it. They also try to give advice to us poor sods to try to overcome it. (None of this advice ever works.) Sometimes they suggest that after a while, women grow out of it. They don't. Women will only entertain our advances when they have been rejected by the last thug they can get. And when they do, they do it to exploit us financially or make us listen to some emotional catharsis where they spill their guts about their real boyfriend now in prison.

Forget the false hope, kind advice and assurances that a good woman will come along and respond to you. Let's talk reality. A criminal's girlfriend is always prettier than any you will ever get. A criminal's girfriend is more loyal than any that you will ever get. A criminal's girlfriend is more tolerant and forgiving than any that you will ever get. A criminal's girlfriend is more pleasant than any that you will ever get. Criminals can have a new woman every day, you can only get one when the criminals don't want them or are finished with them.

Sour grapes time. Those girls are all skanks and are not nearly good enough for us. So says the miserable harpy that you are stuck with. I swear, there is not a man on this Earth who hasn't thought to himself, "Just once in my life, to have that kind of sway over a woman like that!!!" . Admit it. There is no harm in hopeless envy.

So what is a guy to do? There are several how-to courses available on the internet to help you become a bad boy, or at least fake it. Do they work? Yes and No. You can fool some dive bar dumbellina for a couple of weeks, but eventually, they always find out if you are a decent human being and drop you in the end. Perhaps you can go from one to another as fast as the real miscreants and have a new one before the last finds you out. Some of us might be up to it, but I suspect that disposable partners are not what most of us want.

Should we become bad boys too? Emphatically, NO. Bad Boys get the girls but they pay handsomely for the license. They spend much of thier lives behind bars. They are beaten bloody from time to time. They can never get a decent, rewarding job. They die young. It is almost as bad as being married to your ex-wife. In the words of Robert Browning, " a man's reach should exceed his grasp." We must, simply, embrace the fact that there are some things that will be forever denied to us.

Another Gift of the Matriarchy -- Pedophiles.

2005-11-05T15:51:00.000-07:00

Last night, I saw a television program on NBC called To Catch a Predator. The program was about adult male perverts who lure children into sex through internet chat rooms. Yes, it was more male-bashing propaganda. There is no denying that. Unfortunately, we cannot simply dismiss this piece as unfounded trash, because they were able to entrap so many of these perverts in a single location. Now, we are forced to face some very shameful facts. There are male perverts out there. They do target children. There are large numbers of them. They are bolder and more aggressive than ever before. How could this be? Where do these people come from? What caused all of this?

For the rest of the evening I contemplated this subject. I slept on it and then thought it over again for the balance of the morning. In my opinion, there will never be a full and complete explanation for all of this perversion. Still, I was able to arrive at a few conclusions that are worth noting.

One thing is certain. The problem, on this scale, is fairly new and getting worse. Yes there were pedophiles in the past, but not nearly as many as there are now. Although there seems to be an infinite number of women who claim to have been molested by their fathers, I have never heard one yet that seems credible. Besides, nearly all of the research that I have read on domestic molestation points to step-fathers and live-in boyfriends as the culprits and not biological fathers. I would be willing to bet that even if a particular father is, in fact, a molester, he only molests other people’s children and not his own. Father/child sexual abuse is so rare that a true and verifiable case surfaces only once in a blue moon. The internet predator is a completely different animal ( and I use the word animal literally). He targets the children of strangers again and again and again. He is not content with a single victim. He constantly seeks new ones.

The feminization of society has exacerbated the problem in two fundamental ways. Let’s look at the pedophile himself. He has no sense of propriety, let alone morality. In the past, standards of behavior were simple and concrete. Feminization has given us moral relativism. There is no right and wrong anymore. Now these perverts can always excuse themselves by thinking that molestation is perfectly acceptable in this case. Besides lacking the moral compass, the molesters also have poor impulse control. Even if they believe their actions to be wrong, they say that they cannot help themselves. If they truly do lose control of themselves, it is because they possess a feminine trait that is now sanctioned by society across-the-board. We need look no further than the shoplifter beauty queens or Imelda Marcos’ shoes for evidence of this. If the pervert retained complete control over himself and proceeded anyway, he resorts to all of the excuses that junk psychology has to offer. This is another feminine trait that society encourages -- PMS and PPD etc..

Now, let’s look at the social climate. There are few biological fathers left in the home to protect children. Those that remain are legally restrained from acting in their children’s interest. This makes children especially vulnerable. Technology has a role, but the most important factor is the absence of adult men in children’s everyday lives. Fathers are gone. Only the weakest and most deluded men seek work in the schools. No man with a mind dares interact with children at all because of the sexual abuse hysteria that will follow him day in and day out. Predators have free reign because of the absence of normal men who would deter or confront any pedophile.

Finally, we need to look at the child victims as well. The fathers are gone. Many kids crave the attention of adult men. These children will do anything to fill the emotional void left by an absent or unknown father. The emptiness is so great that the children will even offer up their bodies to gain a man’s affection -- any man‘s affection. The emotional issue is compounded by a social one. It is a fact, that many fifth-graders have a more active sex life than either of their parents ever will. There is an old joke that says, You know you are a loser when you molest an eight year old and she tells you that she has had better. Today it isn’t a joke. For many kids it is the truth. Today’s children think nothing of having sex with anyone. To them, submitting to a molester it is just another lay.

Female Hysteria and the Plame Affair

2005-11-01T12:24:00.000-07:00

For once, I get to side with the administration an an issue. Bush, Cheney, Rove and Libby are all innocent. In fact, no crime was committed at all. I assert that the Vice President and his aide have the absolute authority to revoke an undercover status or a security clearence at will. Now, Libby may have been indicted for perjury, obstruction, etc. -- essentially the cover up. Nothing he may have said or done before the grand jury matters. You can't cover up a crime that never occurred. He should never have resigned.

So, what is this mess? It is a nationwide PMS episode. The American public has become one big maladapted wife to the government. Her lashing out at the White House is the equivalent of an irrational, belecose wife scalding her husband for not wanting to vacuum the exact instant he gets home from work.

America's voters no longer evaluate political cadidates on issues and goals. No, the big woman chooses her leaders based on emotional impulse; not unlike a housewife's impulse purchase of a cheese cake or a pair of lime green shoes. The pols noted this long ago. As a result, we have negative campaigning, draconian anti-male laws and political grandstanding that promises to further degrade all men. Thanks national bitch.

The Last American Men

2005-10-24T13:38:00.000-07:00

Lately, I have spent much time around the kids. I have chattered with quite a few teachers and seen what passes for entertainment on the boob tube. After this, I cannot escape the regrettable conclusion that the last generation of American men has already been born and has already reached adulthood. Furthermore, I am ashamed to say that it was my generation, the Baby Boom Generation, that doused the last flickering flame.

The last true men belong to Generation X. They are not just the last, they are also the only men left in society. The men of the GI Generation and the Silent Generation are now largely out of the workforce. These men no longer circulate in or have a significant influence in contemporary society. The males of the Baby Boom Generation, long ago, swapped their masculinity for feminine sensitivity. In doing so, the Baby Boom Generation has denied the fathers of Generation X, the last best hope of American men, the right to pass their legacy on to their children.

Masculinity is genetic. It cannot be extinguished entirely. However, the Baby Boom Generation has found a way to sabotage the development of boys into men by banishing the men of Generation X from all positions of authority and responsibility within society. First, they deprived the GenX men of a decent public education. Next, the Boomers deprived them of economic opportunity. Finally, the Boomers ejected them from their own families. It is no accident that GenX women occupy important positions in society and that GenX men are universally maligned. It should also be no surprise that GenX men are among the most reactionary and pissed off people on Earth. Let me also say that GenX men are the most generous, the most tolerant, the most industrious and the most loyal of any generation this country has yet produced. Nobody is allowed to say that in the media, but it is still the gospel truth. That these good men are and will remain almost completely isolated from our youth is a sin and the zenith of folly.

The males of GenY are coming of age now. Yes they do have the inborn masculinity that God gave us all. The problem is that they don’t know what to do with it. They actually believe that what they feel is more important than what they think or what they do. They believe that it is natural and proper that women behave like animals due to PMS, PPD or any other ridiculous excuse. Many males of GenY have never even met a real man or a real lady in their entire lives -- not even on television. How will GenY acquire the traits of honorable manhood in such a void? It may not be possible.

Boomers, may you burn in Hell for what you are doing to your country and your people. That a generation that once aspired to the greatest good can sponsor such utter depravity is inexcusable.

GenX, I salute you. You are the most abused, most aborted and most deprived generation in our history, yet you set a fine standard. You are the last American men. Remember, every dog has his day and, I swear, that you will have yours.

GenY, I pity you. Despite all of the material wealth and social advantages that were showered upon you from birth, greatness will elude you for all of your days. I fear, that in your elder years, you will look back on your lives and wish you were smothered in your cradles.

Activism is Beneficial After All

2005-10-19T11:31:00.000-07:00

The other day a friend and I were discussing male activism. He asked me why I thought that the Men’s Movement would not provoke meaningful change. I will explain myself for him and for my reader.

The Men’s Movement will not succeed because most men are focused on the wrong enemy. Men, as a group, mistakenly believe that feminazis are to blame for this sick society. Nothing could be further from the truth. Political opportunism is the root cause of social decay not radical feminism. The fact of the matter is that feminism has very little real power or influence. No senator or congressman wants to listen to some carping bitch any more than we do. The only reason that so much of the feminist agenda became entrenched in law was that it ran concurrent with the real objective, namely, the political conquest of the states and individuals by the federal government.

Our true adversary is not the bloated dyke with a pair of scissors hanging about its neck. Our most formidable opponent is the toothless, tattooed welfare queen with ten bastards by nine men. At least the dyke paid for the scissors, but we pay for the bastards. To pay for all of this somebody has to be exploited. Men, who generate at least ¾ of the GDP, are the obvious choice. Feminazis may agree with and take the credit for this but the idea is not theirs. It is just one part of a massive political power grab by the federal government.

There is a better than even chance that my reader is a bastard himself, either by birth or divorce. It is highly probable that the children he sired are bastards too. Though he may be infuriated by his predicament, he is not likely to turn against his true parents -- The Department of Justice and The Department of Health and Human Services. He may not fully realize it, but he is every bit as loyal to his ever-present but faceless parents as a legitimate child is to his human parents. Nobody protects government-sponsored bastardy more fiercely than those who have been ruined by it.

If I believe all of this then why do I support activism at all? It may never be possible to change the dominant society, but it can be made moot by a self-reliant sub-culture. Congress can enact more and more abusive laws, but what if the cops in your town decide to ignore them? Congress can tax and tax, but what if you produce no reportable income? Perhaps your sweet bride will fellate some hack judge in exchange for garnishing your wages and seizing your bank accounts. What wages and what accounts? The Attorney General can charge you with a thousand counts of a thousand crimes. You can talk that over with your friends while you sip your brandy at a Buenos Aires sidewalk café. Civil asset forfeiture? Huh! You can walk away with a million dollars worth of untraceable gems and coins inside a bowling bag.

If only one in ten thousand American men adopted the proper activist attitudes and habits, the lives of all men would improve. When the common man sees living examples of men who have folded their lousy hand and refuse to ante for the next, society must about face if it is to survive at all. Society will still hate and denigrate men. Undoubtedly, the hatred will intensify. However, society will eventually be forced to at least tolerate men.

Men are America’s wealth and productivity. If even a small fraction of productive men turn their backs on society, the result will be economic disaster. Does anybody really think that an illiterate welfare queen can replace a master electrician? Is a B.A in Gender Studies and an M.S.W. interchangeable with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and an M.B.A.? Yes, society will, at first, insist that they are -- until the standard of living plunges. Next, society will try to import productive labor to fill the void. This will fail too because of racism and xenophobia. Educated Africans and Latin Americans will not be welcome. Qualified Europeans and Asians will decline to come to a police state that is on the brink of collapse.

In the end, society will come to the awful realization that it cannot continue to drive away its breadwinners. The misandry will remain but the overt hatred will abate. By then it may be too late. The absent and invisible will never be lured back. We will have new lives and we will care nothing for the old anymore.

Racism in the Men's Movement

2005-10-17T09:40:00.000-07:00

The Men’s Movement cannot possibly move ahead, unless and until, we finally destroy racism. Most MRAs are white men, even though black and hispanic men have been taking the brunt of the beating. We must get black and latino men on our side. As things are now when a black man votes, he votes BLACK first. We must, somehow, persuade him to vote MAN first. That will be no mean feat. Black men know our attitudes toward them. We point the finger and say, “That (n-word) drinking MD 20/20 from the paper bag has 40 kids and never a job!”. We conveniently forget that he is one of 40 kids himself; that an illiterate and irresponsible black woman was in charge of his education and social development; that he cannot pick his father out of a crowd, much less learn from him; and that he is out on the street at all is a pure accident. He should be locked up with all 20 of his brothers, who he doesn’t even know are his biological brothers.

Nobody needs reform more than African-Americans. Yet unless we abandon all of our right-wind political rhetoric, we will never be able to bring them under our roof. Blacks tend to vote in ways that further empowers the federal government. Because the Civil Rights Movement and the Great Society happened at the same time most people of all races, tightly link the two in their own political outlook. You can’t have one without the other. Erroneous! In the mid 1960’s it was possible to expand civil rights without establishing a welfare state with all of the human tragedy that came with it. I sincerely believe that LBJ did more damage to African-Americans than Jefferson Davis would have, if he had been president during the 1960’s.

As for Latinos, I rarely see a Men’s Movement site that does not call for more “border security”. Security be damned! The fence jumpers are intrepid and enterprising. They come from intact families and usually have one of their own. They believe in the ascendancy of men, especially fathers, that assures a more stable relationship between the sexes. These are our kind of men! We should be dragging them off the streets of Juarez and Tijuana in the thousands. Instead, we agitate for a new iron curtain.

Make no mistake about the situation on the US/Mexican border. The federal government could run a fence from Imperial Beach to Brownsville. They could lay a mine field behind that fence. They could erect watchtowers every quarter mile, manned by soldiers armed with machine guns. All of this at a negligible cost to the tax payer. So, why don’t they? Doesn’t ending illegal immigration have enough public support? Yes, the public wants it but not the pols. Every congressman, senator and senior federal official understands that if illegal immigration does stop the American economy will utterly collapse in a matter of weeks. The border is still wide open because nobody who has to stand for election every two years wants a depression during their tenure.

In a more perfect union, the aliens would be able to claim citizenship within two years like in Canada and New Zealand. Unfortunately, no lawmaker will ever even propose such a measure. They know that if Mexicans come here and naturalize quickly, their tyranny will end just as quickly. Latin men, especially those born in Latin America, still retain the classical concept of personal honor. They would do all of the things that we would like to do ourselves, but are too morally weak to try. A latin man will wallop a bitchy wife. He will avenge any false witness or malicious behavior. He will slay any corrupt judge who dares to interfere with his family. If he can’t do it alone, all of his male relatives will be pressed into service. What is more, if he does any or all of those things, he will not be punished for it. Other Latinos on any prospective jury will fully understand that his actions were nothing but a legitimate defense of honor.

So, what about us? Are there so many white MRA’s that we don’t need help from our black and latin brothers? Do we really want to align ourselves politically with the survivalists, the Militia Movement or any other impotent, reactionary group? To progress, we must reach out to the vast number of potential allies on the Left that we now dismiss.

Go Left Young Man

2005-10-02T19:19:00.000-07:00

My daily tours of Men’s Movement sites and blogs has taken me to the conclusion that men’s rights activists (MRAs) are the most politically naive leaders of any modern movement. I see gay bashing. I see angry right-wing rhetoric. I see unswerving support for any, so called conservative, drivel that is alleged to be pro-marriage or pro-family. I see calls for educating the judiciary on men’s issues and for the appointment of conservative or strict constructionist judges. None of this will ever advance the men’s movement only hold it back. We are on the wrong side. I do not pretend to understand the nuances of UK, Aussie, Canadian, or Kiwi politics. Therefore, I shall limit my comment to the American situation.

As I noted before, wounded men drift to the political right. The reason for this is quite simple. Distressed men grasp at any hope. The Republican’s know this well and exploit the agony of the common man. They pay lip service to the sanctity of marriage and responsible fatherhood. What do we get for our support? Tax cuts for billionaires and an undeclared war that has already killed many fellow men. That’s it -- all of it! The Republican Party, since WWI, has never sided with the common man and never will. The Republicans represent only the upper-middle-class. To actually get elected, they need to attract the very people they despise most, the angry white men a.k.a. the working poor. Easy prey. Just tell them they can keep their guns, their kids will be able to pray at school and we will send all of the Mexicans back.

So what have the Liberal Democrats done for us lately? Nothing, but why should they? We always vote Republican and they know it. They have written us off. But what would they do if we threw them our support?

MRAs and Joe Blow himself need to take a good look at the Democrats. That the Democrats kneel at the femininazi alter is crystal clear. However, the Feminist Movement is winding down and the Men’s Movement is on the rise. If the angry white men join the Democrats, the feminazis would be pushed aside. The time is ripe for an upheaval. It is doable, even as soon as the next presidential election.

Men must recognize that we have common cause with the most powerful and best organized clients of the Democratic Party. For example:

Organized Labor seeks better wages and working conditions. Maybe we can return to the one paycheck family. Perhaps, fewer men die in industrial accidents. We can support that. Can’t we?

African-Americans put a blinding light on public corruption, police abuse and individual civil rights. It is also true that no segment of society has suffered more under feminism than African-Americans. If African-American men gain the right to head their families, we do too. How can we be against this?

Gays seek the right to a legally binding marriage and an end to discrimination based on sexual orientation. Don’t we want marriage to be legally binding again? If gays achieve the right to be with their own children don’t we also? If marriage is never restored, does it really matter who gets the sheet of toilet paper at City Hall?

MRAs must reach out to these groups because they have something that we don’t, effective leadership and organization. They know how to start a grassroots movement and keep it going. The number of discarded men dwarfs the number in the labor movement and the gay rights movement combined. They wield the power that continues to elude us. We need their help and guidance. The day that the Men’s Movement ever allies itself with the big constituencies of the political left, is the day that radical feminism finally dies and all of the male disabilities vanish.

War of Civilizations

2005-09-24T12:20:00.000-07:00

Western politicians and bureaucrats have a big problem. The West is at war with Islam and Islam will win. This is good news for the men’s movement even though social conditioning causes most men to dread Islam. Islam promises justice. Western men would fare far better under Sharia than Western law. In addition, the West faces a crisis of faith. Western governments, without exception, drive a wedge between men and the Creator. Without God, Islamic government does not exist. Up to now, the Western politicians and media have been successful in mongering fear and painting the Muslims as savages. The reasons are complex but some components are readily identified.

One problem is internal to Islam itself. Islam tends to select warriors and theological zealots for its leaders rather than diplomats and missionaries. Western men hear only Islam’s threats and none of its promises. When an Islamic leader is found who can persuade agnostic Western men, instead of menacing them, then Islam will spread like wildfire across the West.

Another obstacle is Christian Fundamentalism. Christian Fundamentalism will never be defeated, but its influence in secular life will wane. For the time being, anyone who wishes a closer relationship with his maker turns to Christian Fundamentalism. It is the only game in town. When sufficient numbers of Muslims appear in the West and effective Muslim leaders, native to Western countries, emerge. Islam will begin to displace Christian Fundamentalism because it offers a better life to more people.

Already, Islam is making significant inroads among the West’s most oppressed people -- its prisoners. Both true criminals and innocent victims of injustice are turning to Islam in such numbers that the Federal Bureau of Prisons is now being forced devise new policies to cope with Islam’s ascendancy. What is even more troubling to the secular authorities, is the developing unity and increasing radicalization of Muslims in their charge. Officials fear, and rightly so, that they are breeding their own native, suicide bombers.

So what will it take for Islam to spread beyond the prison walls and to the population at large? Leaders who can appeal to men with reason and virtue. Western men are starved for such leaders. Next, it will take an erosion of prejudice against Islam. This will undoubtedly happen. Though the Christian Fundamentalists continue to grow in number, the secular agnostics are growing much faster. Islam will fill the void created by the decline of traditional Christian denominations. The traditional Christian denominations are driving traditional men away by tolerating and even promoting feminism, homosexuality and secular humanism. Men are getting tired of sitting in the pews and listening to sermons on male domination and the virtues of womanhood. This is especially true if the preacher is going to rush home after services to screw his boyfriend in the ass.

Yes, large segments of the Men’s Movement will embrace Islam if only to escape pervasive sin and to revive hope for their sons and themselves. Your author, a committed but secular Catholic, will probably never convert. Nevertheless, he welcomes the spread of Islam as a means to liberation and to reestablishment of morality in Western society.

The Blue Goons

2005-09-19T07:09:00.000-07:00

It is ironic and very sad that the most immediate threat to any man is the police, the blue goons. Sadder still is that male officers are worse their female counterparts. This bitter enmity between police and the male of the species arose first by accident. When our political masters noticed the situation, they exacerbated and exploited it to consolidate their power.

The replacement of good cops with blue goons started with a noble idea, namely, to eliminate police corruption and nepotism. When political machines lost their grip on the largest American cities, a “merit” system replaced patronage as the primary method of selecting police officers. Soon, men who needed the job were displaced by men who wanted the job. This was only natural. Men with a disciplined turn of mind aspire to be scientists. Men with a creative turn of mind aspire to be writers. Men with an authoritarian turn of mind aspire to be cops. Nowadays, every candidate for the police academy has a little Hitler inside of him. This condition has spread beyond the cities and pervades every law enforcement unit in the nation.

So what made the blue goons the mortal enemy of Joe Average? First, they isolated themselves from the rest of humanity. Instead of walking the streets of their own neighborhood, they invade other people’s neighborhoods like Viking raiders. Cruisers, lights, sirens and guns -- intimidation. Even off the job, the blue goons insulate themselves from humanity. They socialize only with other goons. They live only in neighborhoods that have other goons. The most important and most dangerous factor of all is the “total war” mentality that they have developed over the years. To a cop there is only one kind of human being, another cop. The remainder of the race belongs to a subhuman species called “the bad guys”. The blue goons harbor an utter contempt for humanity that is reinforced by both the media and their constant exposure to only the dregs of society.

Why is the blue goon’s hostility confined only to men? The answer is easy -- it isn’t. The blue goons have no more esteem for women than they do men. Both sexes are equally contemptible. The reason that they treat women differently is because they are under orders to do so. Political pressures have resulted in policies and directives that the goons are bound to obey whether they like it or not. Even so, many of the blue goons defy these policies with impunity. The only difference is that women are raped or otherwise sexually exploited rather than murdered outright. Just ask the nearest crystal meth addict.

Good Cops

2005-09-14T10:07:00.000-07:00

Once upon a time, there were good and decent men who walked our streets and kept the peace. These men were called cops, constable on patrol. In my grandfather’s day, these cops owed their jobs to the spoils system, also called patronage. (More on machine politics in later posts.) When a family man was down on his luck, he would call his friend, the ward boss, and hit him up for a job. Often these jobs were with the police. The cops did not want to do the job. They had to do it for the sake of the family.

Back in those days, the cops performed a service that can be best described as criminal triage. God help the violent criminal caught in the act -- police station walls were painted red for a reason . By the same token, your typical Friday night drunk and disorderly only rated a slight kick in the pants, just enough to wake the guy up. Then the cop would say, “Go home Rich before I call your wife.” The cop knew him personally; in those days they always did. If a kid was caught shoplifting, the cop would read him the riot act. If the kid gave him any guff, the cop gave him a hearty slap across the face. Next, he dragged the kid home and turned him over to Dad.

It is true that these good cops were not always qualified, were susceptible to bribery, and were loyal to the political boss, himself, rather than some abstract chain of command. Knowing all of this, I still prefer these cops to the ones we have now -- the blue goons. Since I am a law abiding citizen, I would only break the law inadvertently or in extreme circumstances. Even then the violation would be minor. I would much rather take my chances with a man, who has no particular interest in harming me and is also a member of my brother’s Knights of Columbus lodge. Even if the cop was a notorious hard-ass, there would have been limits to what he could get away with. The ward boss may be his friend, but he would be mine too. The same is true of the parish priest. My uncle just might be his son’s boss. My father might be a union officer who controls a good block of votes. My mother might be his wife’s best friend. I feel much safer falling into his hands, than into the hands of even the most lenient of the blue goons.

Katrina

2005-09-09T10:20:00.000-07:00

Up to now I have been silent on Katrina and the plight of New Orleans. This is because I considered them irrelevant to the Men’s Movement. This was not true. Katrina bared the pock-marked ass of American society. We saw the blue goons rampage with the savages or desert their posts. We saw an unqualified mayor, an unqualified governor and an unqualified president shirk their responsibilities in time of crisis.

We saw thousands of people, in jeopardy, stand in line outside the Superdome so that the thugs could search every baby’s diaper for an unauthorized bottle of Tylenol. This was for safety -- yeah sure! So what if some punk drew a revolver inside the Superdome? Does anyone really think that he would get away? If a top priority was to prevent some teenager from smoking a bone in the ladies room, then where did organization, or supply, or medical attention fall on the list? Conditions inside the Superdome were deplorable, but hey, at least nobody smuggled in a can of beer right? After all, they don’t allow drinking at the Saints games -- or do they? The Superdome was nothing but a naked display of force against a crowd of helpless and frightened people. Period.

There is no longer any question that the American news media are all racist. I never saw even one video clip of all the white looters. I also saw nothing of the many black heroes. The first I heard of the heroism of any black person was about the teenager who, let’s say, requisitioned a school bus and drove others to safety. I have heard some say this boy committed a crime. The crime was that HE had to do it, not that he did. Then there was the six year old with several babies in tow. Where were the fine, righteous single mothers who had charge of these children? We know where the fathers were -- driven away by the blue goons and the alphabet soup of federal and state agencies that promote bastardies. I dare say, that if every New Orleans household had a free and thinking man at its head, the death toll would have been negligible. On the other hand, the unconscionable performance at all three levels of government would have remained hidden, because these free men would have made intervention unnecessary.

The Men’s Movement must take note of this catastrophe and use it. The hurricane was a natural disaster but the aftereffects were the result of an avoidable social and political disaster that had been festering in New Orleans for decades. I have heard it said, that the social disintegration in New Orleans was because an overly large proportion of the population was black and poor. Dead Wrong! It was because this population was overwhelmingly female and public wards. That they were mostly black is incidental. These welfare mothers look to government, not a capable husband, in times of crisis. When government evaporated, so did the only support and guidance that they have ever known. I can only imagine the thoughts of these women when they heard that their mayor, the strong black buck they elected, darted to Baton Rouge and abandoned them to the mercy of the elements and anarchy. I wonder, did they get a moral boost from the woman governor, that they had also elected, when she offered them tears instead of leadership?

What about the men in New Orleans? To start with, there were not very many. Those that had families shepherded them to safety. The remainder? Too debilitated by their mother-only upbringing or too marginalized due to the anti black and anti male culture to be of any use. They looted. Men in authority? Shamelessly fled as any man who depends on women to empower him.

The Katrina Disaster is proof of the fragility of matriarchy. It is also proof that an oppressive and intrusive government is so impotent in states of emergency, that a single teenage boy with a set of keys is both more effective and more humane.

We Find The Defendant Not Gulity

2005-09-08T05:13:00.000-07:00

No decent man can sit on a jury and convict another man under any circumstances. Never. Not even if it were Satan, himself, on trial. Nor can any decent man contrive to be dismissed from jury service and permit another man to be convicted by his absence. No man can receive a fair trial and no man can be proven guilty of a crime beyond a reasonable doubt.

That which is not just is not law.
-- William Lloyd Garrison

No criminal trial in the English speaking world conforms to the principles of common law. Nobody even bothers to put forth the faintest charade anymore. Criminal trials are nothing more than a putrid conspiracy of the black robed mafia (judiciary); the inquisition (prosecutor); and the blue Bolsheviks (police). The sins of this trinity of tyranny need not be enumerated. They are well known to those who follow the news. The functions and methods of these reprobates will be explored in later posts. For now, I will only pose a few simple questions to just and fair-minded men:

Why does G.W. Bush hold more prisoners than Stalin?

Are Americans really so morally inferior that they merit incarceration in higher numbers and percentages than any other people in history?

Did the wrong army win the Civil War? Is it really true that young Black men are only fit for bondage and enforced servitude? Why are more of them in bondage than before the Civil War?

Why is a woman who deliberately drowns her children not guilty of capital crime but a man, whose parents neglected to send him to an orthodontist, is very nearly executed?

Why are more people raped, sodomized and murdered while in the “care” of the government than on the streets of the most dangerous cities in the world?

What deadly threat did a handcuffed nine year old girl pose to three armed, adult male police officers that forced them to taser her?

If this is law and order, then give me anarchy anytime.

John Brown's Last Words

2005-08-31T22:54:00.000-07:00

As the abolitionist John Brown was to be hanged, he handed this executioner a note.

I, John Brown am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood.

Our times are similar in many respects. The crimes against men and children will continue, unchecked, unless the governments that facilitate them are violently overthrown. Don't hold your breath. And for God's sake, don't get involved! 20th century history has shown us that there are only two ways to overthrow the governments of despotic superpowers. Firstly by world war and conquest -- Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. Secondly, by a renegade tyrant abdicating of his own volition -- Soviet Union after Glasnost and Perestroyka. The day of the popular revolution is over.

Many within the Men's Movement look forward to the day when a rising tide of political action will sweep the reptiles from power through the ballot box. It will never happen. No trifle like a national election is going to convince the tyrants to step aside. Western governments will readily slaughter thier own citizens rather than relinquish power. If the Men's Movement gets too active or too successful it will be crushed by force of arms ala the Branch-Davidians. If the Men's Movement survives that and becomes stronger, do not be surprised to see nuclear strikes against the American, Austrailian and Brittish cities that are the most troublesome. The remainder of the Western world will fall under permanent martial law.

None of this suggests that we forget about activism. These societies are rotting away at the very core. The type activism that will bring change is not political or revolutionary but merely contributing to the self destruction of these societies. The good news is that these societies are so complex that any man can have an impact not by active opposition but by witholding assistance to them. Every man on jury duty may refuse to convict any defendant. A man can opt out of the economy and erode the tax base by emigrating or taking up subsistence farming. Entrepreneurs can outsource as much work as they can to the third world. It will not take very many men to withold thier labor and topple the Social Security System and its counterparts in the rest of the West. If enough men decide to live on beans, bread and water alone, and own only two sets of clothes, they will become healthier and, at the same time, mortally wound the economy. Soon these governments will be so weak that they will become paralized. This is when change can occur.

Against Gay Marriage? -- Let's Not Be Too Hasty

2005-08-26T19:29:00.000-07:00

Wounded men tend to drift to the political right. They listen to the lies and try to believe. Traditional family values? Yeah sure! Limited government? Not a chance. The left is every bit as hostile to men as the right, but their agenda seeks to impose something that we can use and profit from, namely, Gay Marriage.

Naturally, many men will object to gay marriage and civil unions on moral grounds. Think about it. Is it really more sick and twisted than capital punishment for retarded children or promoting prison rape? Is it more indicative of moral decay than a corrupt judiciary or their obscene abuse of human rights? Remember, nobody is trying to force you to fag off with another guy. They are merely trying to force a state of moral legitimacy and legal parity upon an unreceptive public.

So, what do we gain if we all marry our best buddy?

Better tax treatment.
More favorable health, life and car insurance options.
The opportunity to obtain a single home mortgage using two incomes.
A better chance of regaining child custody because of your “stable, two-parent home”.
A better chance at adopting a child.
Your best friend cannot be forced to testify against you in court.
No probate at your death.
You may claim protection under discrimination laws.

There are numerous other advantages. All you have to do is claim them. No proof of sodomy is required. You can even annul your marriage at any time because it was never consummated. It is a mistake to reject this issue out of hand when there is so much to gain. It is like cod liver oil. Sure, it stinks and leaves a bad taste in your mouth, but you want the positive effects.

The Nature of Masculinity

2005-08-25T23:59:00.000-07:00

Many a man active in the Men's Movement asserts that men have been emasculated by feminism and political correctness. I beg to differ. Actual emasculation would mean that masculinity is now absent in males and cannot be recovered. Masculinity is not absent. It is merely hidden and can be redeemed at any time.

The truth of the matter is that the vast majority of males work very, very hard to keep their masculinity hidden. It takes intense and deliberate effort to supress a masculine trait every day of your life. Most of these "stealth men" slip every once in a while. That is why the feminazis can still screech "PIG!" daily. It is also a handy excuse for wives from Hell to use during divorce proceedings.

Feminism destroy masculinity? Impossible. Masculinity is genetically hard-wired. To suggest otherwise is to affirm the feminazi propaganda that gender identity is the result of socialization. Feminism has had 40 years to do its vile work and Monday Night Football still survives. How can this be? We all know that 90% of all women are killed by their husbands during the Super Bowl. Two -- no THREE generations of boys should have grown to be women by now. So, who is renting all of those Star Wars movies?

What does a man need to do to restore his masculinity? Nothing. That's right -- Nothing. He already has it. To do nothing also means to cease making the Herculean effort to hide masculinity in public and in private. When a man quits working on the facade, his true nature will reveal itself instantly. It is no more difficult than switching off a light.
