Irony alert! The level of irony in this post is so extreme it might actually harm your computer.
So a couple of days ago, MGTOWer extraordinaire MarkyMark, continuing on with his post-retirement posting binge, shared with us an email he got from a fella who had skipped the country in order to avoid paying child support for his three kids.
I’m a deadbeat dad!!! (light your torches – gasoline in 89, 91, and 95 octane is available in your choice of containers). Yep, I’ve got three kids and I’m behind on my child kidnapping payments by probably 10 grand at present and considerably more behind on alimony and her lawyer fees. I skipped the country rather than be jailed for all of the above compounding my crimes. A runaway slave is the worst kind of slave – one that absolutely refuses to serve his massa.
Yep, that’s right. He compared the legal requirement that he provide financial assistance to his own children to … slavery.
In the rest of his letter, he encouraged other “slaves” to follow in his path.
My favorite bit is the quote I used as the headline:
Women from around the world look better than anything back in the states, cost less unless you’re totally stupid, and are much more easily disposed of.
Ooh. That last bit is rather unfortunately worded – unless he really is suggesting that outside the US it is easier to get rid of the bodies of murdered girlfriends and wives.
So anyway, MarkyMark’s post got linked to on the Men’s Rights subreddit. And this little discussion ensued. You may wish to activate your irony shields now.
Take note of the upvotes and downvotes for these three comments.
How did he afford to skip the country, I wonder?
I assume (hope) “disposed of” just means that he can more easily run away when he gets them pregnant and disappears.
Apparently having to pay for your children’s care is “slavery,” but having to work caring for those children and pay for it is…
…is the lot of women and they ought to like that sort of thing.
🙁
It’s sad when that reading is the generous one.
These guys have ample opportunity to pay their obligations before the specter of jail rears its head. They don’t want to, so the easy route is skipping the country. MRA logic never ceases to amaze me.
But of course they really, really, REALLY care about their kids and would never use them as pawns. Too bad they can’t raise themselves and totally make it easy on these dudes.
Someone previously mentioned that rooshv was on a pump and dump tour of eastern Europe bit got into trouble when a few countries local men found out what he was doing and started throwing him out of nightclubs.
I often wonder what local men think of these sex tourists.
I think Thailand was starting to bring in laws with regards to foreign men dating/marrying Thai ladies?
Yeah, it really sucks how America won’t let men just dispose of women they don’t want any more. Scott Peterson, represent!
By “women around the world” I assume he doesn’t mean, like, Sweden, because things didn’t go so well there for Assange.
“Yep, that’s right. He compared the legal requirement that he provide financial assistance to his own children to … slavery”
So? That’s no different than the pro-abortionist feminist argument.
How does one despise his own children so much as to not want to pay to help raise them?
My dad paid child support happily and sometimes helped out extra due to some other circumstances. He never complained, because he knew he was taking care of us that way and making sure we still had food to eat and a roof over our heads.
I don’t even
It’s a wonder why a woman would divorce such an great man as this. He seems so warm and loving.
Wait, did this guy just abandon his kids and then brag about it?
Protip: don’t stick your penis in vaginas if you don’t want children.
I sincerely hope the douchebag ends up dying alone, after begging his kids to come see him, and having them refuse.
Without the often adorable or hilarious images accompanying the quotes in this posts, this would be the most depressing site ever.
@Common Nonsense, that’s how I feel. I have my issues with my biological dad’s parenting style, but at least he was happy to contribute to his children’s well-being. Paying child support was the least he could do, and he knew it.
MRAs make me want to call all of my parents and give them giant phone hugs.
A custodial parent can’t just up and decide to stop providing food, clothing, medical care, and shelter to hir children. Non custodial parents can at the very least pay a few hundred dollars a month for their children. That’s not even close to half of the cost of raising children anyway.
MRAs view women as disposable objects and children as pawns. In other news, water is wet.
I’ve mentioned my qualms regarding child support and I really don’t think it’s something to be jailed over, but even if it were no longer required by law, I think there would still be plenty of fathers who would gladly pay it like Common Nonsense’s dad. They do it because they love and care about their kids. The men like the one in the OP makes it pretty obvious he could care less. I’m glad he came out and admitted that he is a deadbeat though, now MRAs can stop pretending that deadbeat dads are a feminist myth.
My everyday reaction to MRA logic:
Protip: don’t stick your peen into vajayjays if you don’t want children.
Scar, indeed!
Quakers, as a parent of children, I absolutely endorse jailing those garbage nightmares who willfully bail on their children. Once the kid is there, both parents are responsible for that child.
@Bostonian
While I agree that willfully bailing on your children when you can afford child support is a disgusting thing to do, I don’t think jailing parents who honestly can’t afford child support is appropriate. I dunno, I think we need a new system because it seems like this one isn’t working.
I don’t think that’s quite fair to say. But I’d agree with “don’t stick your peen into vajayjays if you are unable to accept any risk of having children.”
This wasn’t some sort of accident or “she told me she was on the pill,” anyway. These were kids he had, apparently intentionally, with his wife.
Mr. Muggles should consult with Macavity.
I don’t think that’s quite fair to say. But I’d agree with “don’t stick your peen into vajayjays if you are unable to accept any risk of having children.”
Or, to be entirely complete, “don’t stick your peen into vajayjays if you are unable to accept any risk of having children, and don’t stick your peen into vajayjays without some form of protection if you are unwilling to commit to caring for children roughly nine months later and for eighteen-plus years thereafter.”
People who are poor and cannot afford to support their kids are not the same people as the douchebags who abandon them without even trying.
