At first glance, Alcuin’s blog would seem to be some sort of parody. The blog’s slogan – “Promoting the Intellectual Renaissance of Western Patriarchy” – seems so over-the-top pretentious that even the smuggest of would-be intellectuals wouldn’t be able to post it with a straight face.
But if Alcuin is a troll, he’s a dedicated one, and one (at least based on my less-than-exhaustive survey of his blog) who never seems to break character. So I’m assuming he’s real. Which makes him a pompous ass with a lot of irritating ideas he’s somehow convinced himself are new and interesting. Take (please!) his recent post “Back Where They Belong.” And yes, “they” mean who you think, and “where they belong” means where you think.
Men should run the government, business, education, and religion. Women should stay at home. Young unmarried women can briefly work as kindergarten and elementary teachers, but there are no reasons why men can’t usually do this as well.
I’m not sure if Alcuin understands that women actually hold most of the jobs that currently exist, and that removing virtually all of them from the workplace would cause the economy to implode like, well, Alcuin, if you suddenly removed all of his idiocy. Also, how many kindergarten teachers do we really need?
As long as women run things, men will continue to be sidelined and slandered because feminism is a zero-sum movement.
Women … run things?
There can be no peace between the sexes until women are back where they belong. The sexes are meant to complement each other rather than compete and put one another down.
Yes, and the best way to show how the sexes “are meant to complement each other rather than … put one another down” is for one of the sexes to, er, put the other down by sending them back into the home.
Women have no business being lawyers, judges, educators, doctors, bureaucrats, writers, or religious leaders. Their attempted leadership in these areas, an illegitimate coup d’etat, is destroying our society.
I agree. Lady Pope is doing a terrible job of dealing with all those abuse cases!
Sadly, they prefer to enjoy their present situation, and let society rot, than go back where they belong and participate in building things again. Much like enjoying the concert on the sinking Titanic – though in this case, don’t expect chivalrous men to jump into the cold water so the ladies can have space on the lifeboats.
A little Titanic humor always enlivens a dull rant, eh?
Knock knock!
Who’s there!
An iceberg!
Damn, I guess we shouldn’t have kept going in zero visibility in a part of the ocean where icebergs had been recently sighted, in our ship that doesn’t have enough lifeboats for everyone!
I crack myself up sometimes. Back to Alcuin:
Feminism is a hate movement that brings out the worst in women.
Unlike the Men’s Rights movement, a hate movement that brings out the best in men!
It hates women because it hates femininity and motherhood, the chief characteristics of what it means to be a genuine woman. It brings out the worst in women by turning them into men, or trying to masculate them.
Damn you, feminism! Don’t go masculating those ladies! First they want to wear pants, and the next thing you know they’re growing ironic mustaches and using Axe Detailers instead of loofahs and subscribing to Bass Fishing Monthly.
It hates men because it blames everything on men, and regards masculinity in men to be evil. It emasculates men at the same time. Gays and, much more secondarily, manginas, are somewhat acceptable to the gynocracy, especially when the furniture needs moving or some bitch can’t pay her own bills.
Because when you need furniture moved, or some money, you call … the gays? Is this some new gay stereotype I’m not aware of? I mean, manginas, sure, manginas are furniture-movers and money-to-bitches conduits extraordinaire. That’s how they get access to pussy, after all.
But what’s the incentive for the gays? They don’t need pussy; they’d, presumably, prefer to spend their money on tiny dogs and gym memberships than on some bitch’s bills; and while gays may have strong opinions about where the furniture should go, are they really interested in carrying it there themselves?
Women generally use men, and feminism continues this grand tradition. A man’s value is defined according to his use to women. Deeper than that, feminism regards men in the same way that the Nazis regarded Jews – men are Untermensch and cannot be granted the same rights and privileges that women are.
And … now we’ve got Nazis.
Feminism aims to bring men down, as it is a zero-sum movement. It doesn’t simply aim to improve the lot of women through, for instance, education, but seeks to exclude men from education.
It does? Last I heard, colleges were actually lowering their standards in order to enroll more guys.
Thus the current propaganda about campus rape, and the attempt to make it easier to accuse a university male of rape in the USA. Thanks, government. You are, once again, the handmaiden of misandry.
And handmaidens are bad. Not like Shieldmaidens.
Feminist hate will never be satisfied, so men can’t keep avoiding the issue. We must avoid feminism as much as we can, and educate each other about it and about alternatives.
Generally it is advisable to actually know something about something before trying to “educating” other people about it.
This intellectual Renaissance of Western Patriarchy business is a lot trickier than you might think.
These is why the Black and Hispanic dudes, no matter how much they try, are NOT given pats on the back and welcome home brotha hugs by the men in the “manosphere”.
The only time the men in the “manosphere” give two shits about Black and Hispanic men is when they’re citing statistics on men in poverty, men who are homeless, or sentencing discrepancies between men and women. And even then, Black and Hispanic men are not referenced directly or cared about specifically. But MRAs are more than happy to include them when they talk about the number of men in prison, etc.
Social Contract: wtf? I assume Hestia is a poster/commentor, not the virgin fire goddess, yes? I’m not sure what this has to do with the topic(s) at hand – unless you’re referring to a previous comment here and didn’t cite it?
Just to let you know, I’m repping the philosophically superior non-Abrahamic faiths here. You know – further East, higher IQs, more depth and cohesiveness and all that.
Sorry, Societal Contract, I left out the quotation marks. I was referencing what you’d written.
The idea is to present them in a scientific manner, as accurate to the descriptions as possible (which meant I had to pick and choose, since the reports tend to contradict each other).
When a young boy I know was raped, it was his male primary school teacher he told about it. The person he trusted most to care and help him.
What were your male teachers like, NWO?
Spearhafo: That Draco is amazing. Actually, all your drawings are amazing – I meant to mention that earlier and got caught up in other stuff. Excellent work.
offs, what the hell is wrong with my copy/paste?
@Nobinayamu
I can’t recall you ever not have several personal examples. So color me surprised.

“I’m pointing you at my drawings of aliens that various conspiracy theorists,”
Don’t forget the all-encompassing, eternal “patriarchy conspiracy.” Feminists have been using that conspiracy since it fell from one of their yaps and they decided it sounded evil.
I don’t have posts making fun of Christians, I have a post making fun of a Christian who happens to be really, really stupid. I feel like most Christians would be insulted to have John C. Wright as their exemplar.
That doesn’t tend to crop up in UFOfology circles.
The Men in Black pop up in quite a few vastly different conspiracy theories though. Do you believe in them, NWOslave?
“I can’t recall you ever not have several personal examples. So color me surprised.”
My life is fuller than yours. I have a wide circle of friends, an even wider circle of associates, and remember the teachers I’ve had throughout my education. Doesn’t change the fact that my personal experiences are limited compared to the population at large. And even within that limited experience I’ve had male teachers and have three friends who are both men and teachers.
Care to respond to what I actually wrote? Do you have of substance with which to respond?
Kathleen, reread this piece and click on the “shieldmaidens”. It will link you to an older blog where David wrote about the “ladies auxiliary” of the Spearhead, started by Hestia.
Nobinayamu, the amount of pure racist hate that Black and Latino men receive when they post on these “mens rights” blogs is astounding.
I’ve never seen nor heard anything like it, even from post 80 year old southern white folks who grew up during segregation.
Nobinayamu: the manosphere also uses the word “thug” when referencing minorities. They give two pearl-clutching squealing shits should a woman have the temerity to date one.
Friggin’ typo: “… have anything of substance…”
Societal Contact: Ah, thanks. Will go read.
That’s right I’d forgotten about the specter of the “thug” that shows up in so many manosphere comments. Good catch, hellkell. And the next time I’m in Texas I will definitely try and take you up on your offer.
Societal Contract, I am hardly surprised. The spill over that we see on this site provides ample evidence.
“the manosphere also uses the word “thug” when referencing minorities.”
They use the acronym NAM – Non Asian Minority.
That is the most respectful term.
They idolize Asian men for being “higher IQ” but then disparage them for supposedly having “smaller dicks” than White men.
These makes them feel better because they say that White women who date Black men are not desirable to White men, but only give vague, half-assed answers as to “why”.
We all know its because of their black penis envy.

I’m so glad you “know” your life is fuller than mine. I guess you have a way of “knowin,” probably intuition. I did answer your question, you refused my answer. Nice to know a feminist like you is teaching. Seems like a whole lot of feminists teach the youngest. I simply can’t imagine why young boys would feel hated in the classroom.
Tell me, if a little boy and girl are arguing, do you immediately tell little johnny to behave himself?
“They idolize Asian men for being “higher IQ” but then disparage them for supposedly having “smaller dicks” than White men.”
Really? I have to confess that other than the fetishization of Asian women, I haven’t read very much on MRA types feelings about Asian men. I find this incredibly disturbing and every bit as racist as the references to “thugs”. That’s just fucking disgusting.
NWO: I tell them both to sit down, shut up, and act properly. When they’re calm, then I try to figure out what’s going on. Actually, this is how I deal with arguing adults, too…
NWO, what do you do when your nephews and nieces are arguing?
NWO, when did Nobinayamu say SHE was teaching? Learn to read.
Also, figuring out that someone’s life is fuller than yours isn’t all that big an intuitive leap.
“I’m so glad you “know” your life is fuller than mine. I guess you have a way of “knowin,” probably intuition.”
No, it’s just plainly obvious from everything you post that your life and your interactions with people are very limited.
“I did answer your question, you refused my answer.”
You made an assertion for which you provided absolutely no evidence, not even anecdotal. Prove that men are being prevented from becoming teachers. How is that possible if I know men who are working as teachers?
“Nice to know a feminist like you is teaching. Seems like a whole lot of feminists teach the youngest. I simply can’t imagine why young boys would feel hated in the classroom. Tell me, if a little boy and girl are arguing, do you immediately tell little johnny to behave himself?”
I have taught children, NWO. I’ve done a lot of things. But I am not a teacher. I work with teachers a great deal. I continue to work and instruct children. But I’m not a teacher. I do however volunteer as a scout leader for boys. There aren’t many fights with little girls, naturally, but I do try to mediate disagreements. I never say “behave yourself.”
Now, have you ever worked with a large number of children or attempted to teach them anything? When was the last time you were in charge of a group of children who weren’t your relatives? Do you have any proof that men are being prevented from teaching? Why aren’t you a teacher?
Nobinayamu, there has been a crossover from HBD thought into the MRA sphere.
HBD bleeding into MRA bleeding into PUA.
