Ladies! Better move fast if you want to sink your talons into some hard-working, high-earning beta man-wallet! Men’s Rights Redditor ShinShinGogetsuko is on to you ladies and your devious ways, and he’s taking his video games and going home. By which I mean: he’s GOING GALT!
Men are choosing to reject the culture that is being forced upon them which tells them to be anything but MEN. What they want us to be is slaves, to throw away our souls and toil away while women get to do whatever they want in the name of “female empowerment” and with a court system that will side with them. Equality is the ideal, but it’s not about equality–it’s about control. Men are going Galt.
When society takes a stand against the destruction of men’s character, then men will return to being men. Until then, Xbox 720.
See, I wasn’t kidding about the video games bit.

Since being pro-life requires government all up in your uterus…
Hmm… How does that work?
Yes. Yes it is, but that’s what seems to be the only way that those in power start to notice. If the poor brown people protest, they call it a riot and out come the hoses and dogs.
Poor people getting the shit end of the stick is dog-bites-man and media doesn’t even bother to acknowledge it. Just another day. Why so serious?
If privileged white students are out marching the media has to at least try and rationalize it, even if it’s only to marginalize it.
When privileged kids are at 18% unemployment, they’re going to be able to do something about it because they’re not scrambling to feed their families.
God, MRAL, can you be a more short-sighted, idiotic little proto-libertarian with this shit? You said once you were a liberal; Despite being an MRA, I could believe that. But with that kind of shit, against the working class? Now I must say “Fuck you, you idiotic little child”. You’re only in college on your mom’s dime and you dare say shit like this? The economy sucks. How can you possibly be so blind as to think this is so easy to avoid? Do you just not have any friends? Because I know you’ve got family struggling (Though not necessarily family you care about, I’m aware that most white people don’t actually know their cousins, aunts, etc), and you clearly don’t care about them at all either.
I mean, shit, son, putting aside everything factually wrong with “Just work harder and a job falls into your lap”… the poor have a right to vent. They have a right to relaxation (or catharsis). It isn’t remotely just that people not in an awesome situation are supposed to be negatively judged for not actually enjoying their free time. That is bootstrap bullshit, peddled by people who don’t actually want the poor to be content in a meaningful sense.
NWO, when you find a hair in your soup, do you blame it on “The State”?
Also, how is it racist to observe that racial minorities weren’t fairly represented at the event? I think the phrase you were looking for is “not racist enough.”
NWO continues to prove he knows nothing about economics. Once again he’s Not Even Wrong.
NWO is just in a bad mood because it’s really hard to get homeowner’s insurance when your house is made out of tinfoil (to match your hat).
“@Nova – you’re totally right, I didn’t mean to imply that it’s just bad decision-making! I agree so much of it is up to luck – and getting in a car accident, getting sick is just stuff that happens that you have relatively little control over.
I was trying to say that the underlying idea behind the ‘I was responsible with my money and am fine’, ‘personal responsibility is all!’ logic is that people who don’t make great decisions somehow deserve to go without food or housing. Really? I mean, I get that I’m a bit left of center and everything, but I just don’t think people should be penalized for investing in a bad company with starvation, just as I don’t think people who are in an accident deserve to freeze or live in their cars. I don’t think that anyone in the world should be without decent food and shelter and health care. No ifs, buts or maybes. Idealist, perhaps, but it’s a morally sound position!”
Oh, I’m agreeing with you, but just taking it a step further. It used to be that way, even when I was young. If you did things the right way, there was a safety net for you and, if you got into a jam, you’d still be okay. Your health insurance, that EVERY company provided, would pay your medical bills, you had disability insurance through your job, so your family would be fed and the house note would be paid. If, for some reason, these things didn’t work out, there were charities and other organizations, to help people get through the tough times.
The only people that did hit rock bottom were those “bad decision makers,” and, as a collective, we could wag our fingers at them, pretending that it was really all their fault. Back when people got fired from their jobs for doing something wrong, rather than the shareholders wanting to make more money. Back when most employers did provide health insurance benefits and disability insurance policies. The only people who were homeless were those bad people and as a result of their bad choices. At least, that’s what everyone pretended and still, to some extent, still does, because it gives us a false sense of security to believe that, if we just do the right thing, we’re going to be okay.
These days, you can make all of the right choices, you can go to the right school, you can get the right degree, live in the right neighborhood and go to work every day that you’re suposed to and still, at any time, the rug can be pulled out from under you. It’s the great equalizer, because it can happen to anyone, anytime. Get cancer and your health insurance can drop you, because you’re too expensive. Get into a car accident and your insurance company can deny coverage, leaving you with the bill. Be a great employee and earn every raise for 10 years and you can get “laid off” because someone fresh out of college will work for less money and no benefits.
These days, it’s all about corporate health, rather than social health. If the corporations are making enough money, the world is okay. It doesn’t matter how many people are sleeping under bridges, because they lost their job. It doesn’t matter how many people are freezing to death, or dying from CO2 poisoning, because their wages are being so severely garnished to pay medical bills. Back in the day, people mattered. Now, we’re just grist for the mill and if we fall under the wheels, someone else will be there to push the corporate gravy train along.
I completely agree with you that people don’t deserve to starve to death, because of a circumstance, whether it’s beyond their control, or a bad decision. Corporations disagree with us and they own the country now, so we’re playing by their rules. And there’s no way that the individual can win. The basics of life, such as health care, nutritious food, transportation and child care are now “luxuries” that most Americans can barely afford or can’t afford at all. If we want to talk about slavery, men and women have a common master. Trent Reznor got it right, well beforehand.
“Also, how is it racist to observe that racial minorities weren’t fairly represented at the event? I think the phrase you were looking for is ‘not racist enough.’”
Obviously you were being racist against the WHITE PEOPLE, Holly! No one ever gives a damn about the white people! 😛
Note to MRAL: if you want me to let your comments through, tone it down, way down.
Ha ha! Did I make him mash his keyboard and/or call me a bitch? I hope it made him happy.
You mean did he pretend to lose control because you made him mad?
How many layers of tinfoil is your hat up to, NWO?
Dude, FUCK YOU. I’m so fucking sick to death of this BULLSHIT meme that state workers are lazy freeloaders. My mother worked for the state of Wisconsin for 37 years. She worked long beyond her retirement eligibility because SHE COULDN’T AFFORD TO RETIRE. Her salary, after 37 years of seniority? $25K per year. There were stretches of time when she didn’t get ANY kind of a raise for FIVE YEARS.
Create debt? What the fuck are you smoking, asshole? She earned the money she got by providing a service. Now explain to me why all of these state workers who earn their keep by providing public services that YOU benefit from every single day of your life are less deserving of the pittance they earn than corporations who are the ones actually creating debt by stealing our tax dollars through subsidies and entitlements?
And secondly, it’s the working and shrinking middle classes who keep this economy going. We’re the ones who actually spend the money we make. Rich people just keep theirs.
I love how NWO thinks current regulations are working. NWO, a lot of those, like Glass-Steagal have been repealed or made utterly meaningless, paving the way for a large part of the mess we’re in now.
Get off worldnet daily and read a book.
It’s interesting that NWO posts all the time about working under terrible conditions for low pay, but then he thinks unions are evil.
Dude. That’s the kind of thing unions could help you with.
It’s because he’s got this MRA bullshit stuck in his head and thinks that all of his problems are the fault of the systemic oppression of men by women. It reminds me of all the people who blame “illegals” for “stealing our jobs” instead of looking up at the corporations who pull up stakes for third world countries so they can hire workers for pennies. Stop looking at the people who are at the bottom with you and look UP already!

“A DAY IN THE LIFE OF NWO REPUBLICAN”
NWO gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards. With his first swallow of water, he takes his daily medication. His medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to ensure their safety and that they work as advertised.
All but $10 of his medications are paid for by his employer’s medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance – now NWO gets it too.
He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. NWO’s bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
In the morning shower, NWO reaches for his shampoo. His bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained.
NWO dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for the laws to stop industries from polluting our air.
He walks on the government-provided sidewalk to subway station for his government-subsidized ride to work. It saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.
NWO begins his work day. He has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. NWO’s employer pays these standards because NWO’s employer doesn’t want his employees to call the union.
If NWO is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, he’ll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn’t think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.
It is noontime and NWO needs to make a bank deposit so he can pay some bills. NWO’s deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect NWO’s money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression.
NWO has to pay his Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and his below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that NWO and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over his lifetime. NWO also forgets that his in addition to his federally subsidized student loans, he attended a state funded university.
NWO is home from work. He plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive. His car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards to go along with the tax-payer funded roads.
He arrives at his boyhood home. His was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers’ Home Administration because bankers didn’t want to make rural loans.
The house didn’t have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn’t belong and demanded rural electrification.
He is happy to see his father, who is now retired. His father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so NWO wouldn’t have to.
NWO gets back in his car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn’t mention that the beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit NWO enjoys throughout his day. NWO agrees: “We don’t need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I’m a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have.”
That sounds like a really nice day, cynickal. You left out the bit where he works for 28 hours surrounded by unqualified women in transparent micro-minis with no underwear on, but other than that, very good. We should all be so lucky!
One wonders why is that a job, created by a business taking money from people is a benefit to the economy, but a job created by goverment taking money from people is a drain?
I wonder this even more, in light of recent studies showing that gov’t employees do better work, for lower costs. It seems the advantages of experience (because gov’t workers aren’t being fired, so the employer can avoid giving them a raise) help.
Interesting thing just came out about New York City. Half of the small businesses in the city, are immigrant owned. Half. That’s what diversity/immigration gets you.
New York is a busy place, lots of people, lots of money moving around. Compare it to Georgia, where the state did it’s best to make the immigrants leave, they are looking at a huge problem because there isn’t anyone to harvest the crops. So a huge part of the state economy is going to be hurt.
As a matter of history, this is totally and utterly wrong. Under the Articles, the federal government did in fact print paper currency during the revolutionary war, however, the lack of a tax power meant that they could not sustain it, so it inflated and then collapsed dramatically. Once the Constitution was passed, it is true that the federal government minted little money, but that was an economic issue in and of itself. Many states had almost the entire economy running on bank created currency. You think bankers have control now, you really wouldn’t want to live back when bankers issued almost every bit of commericial currency in the entire state of NY (less so in the South, but still to a large degree). There were dramatic cycles of boom and bust, people lost livelihoods due to bank collapses, the state courts made incredibly weird legal decisions about contracts and debts to try and sustain anything. But still, some have argued that early court decisions in regards to bank notes may have even been one contributing factor to the civil war, because of the rifts they put in place between the two different economic systems (the north used bank notes for everything, the south used property title barters, this created quite a lot of conflicts in trade, esp. as the north often did not allow property titles to slaves to be used and the increasing industrialization of the north meant that it had a monopoly on most of the non-agricultural economy). The subsequent increase post civil war in federal currency made dramatic economic improvements.
While it is true that unemployment was low in the early years of the US, this has less to do with currency and more to do with dramatic worker shortages (at least in the industrialized north, in the south, poor white unemployment was high, black people were used as slaves to fullfill the labor needs). Workers were abused, and forced into one sided contracts that often held them in a form of indentured servitude year round. Immigration was largely unrestricted in order to increase the numbers of workers (though only whites could naturalize), until around the civil war era, when large migrations from a variety of places, combined with the mass movements of freed slaves created a glut in the labor market.
Because the state pays these workers to provide services, a large number of which would be far more expensive or near impossible to obtain without it. We get roads and hospitals, medical research and social security, we get access (to varying degrees, unfortunately) to courts of law to settle our disputes, etc. Also, as a point of order, state worker union does not equal state run union, in fact, it is best when it does not.
There were also state bank notes in the early US, but they are their own seperate mess as well.
Is this satire? Seriously? or did you not live in the US? or was the part of the “that’s how we pretended it was” in your next paragraph
I mean, I agree with you about how shitty things are now.
I had the same initial reaction, but yeah, if you look at it all in context, zie’s saying “We pretended that there used to be a social safety net and that if you did everything right it caught you”.
@Pecunium:
“One wonders why is that a job, created by a business taking money from people is a benefit to the economy, but a job created by goverment taking money from people is a drain?’
Because businesses typically don’t take money from people. A business has to provide a service to someone that is valuable to them. Businesses must persuade people to hand over their money to them. They can’t use force like the government.
Granted, there are exemptions to this. A monopoly has far more power to exert itself on others. Which is why we have anti-monopoly laws.
The government by default literally takes your money every paycheck or makes you pay quarterly if you are a business or self employed.
Also, the money going into businesses goes to creating better products and creates more value within the economy. Government takes money, allocates it (usually poorly) and spends it (usually poorly as well). A lot of that money is used to keep the bureaucracy going and doesn’t actually go to providing services to people. The government has more red tape and pointless regulations than any other organization and it costs lots of money to comply with them. A business tends to have less regulation to follow and is freer to find cost cutting methods to spend money more efficiently.
Sure, the government can provide temporary relief, but they often overspend on those projects which just requires them to tax more and more. It ends up being a catch-22.
So:
government taxation = coercion and to some people theft
business = persuade customer that their product is worth the money.
