Some threads on The Spearhead are virtual gold mines of crackpot misogyny. Today, from the same thread I drew upon for a post the other day, I present to you yet another long-winded antifeminist manifesto from a dude who doesn’t know shit about feminism. This time the dude in question is someone calling himself Darryl X.
Here’s his little screed:
There is only one kind of feminism. There is no first- or second-wave feminism. There is no ecofeminism or radical feminism or socialist feminism. There is no left and right. No conservative or liberal. (With which many feminists would hope to rationalize their egregious misconduct and criminal behavior – “Oh, but I’m not THAT kind of feminist.”) …
Feminism = the Borg
There is only feminism and it is evil and civilization depends upon its complete and utter elimination. Feminism is the product of false constructs and straw men and false flags and lies and fraud and is a political campaign of hate against men and children. Period.
And apparently Darryl loves the word “and.”
It has coopted our financial and legal and political and social institutions to affect the enslavement
[citation needed]
and murder
[citation needed]
and imprisonment and exile
[citation needed]
of men and the forcible separation of children from their fathers. It is responsible for the collapse of our economies worldwide and the fall of civilization.
[citation … oh, forget it. Every single thing he says needs a citation.
Feminists are comprised of mostly women but there are some men (manginas and white knights and other descriptions).
Manginas represent!
Feminists are psychopaths and malignant narcissists, without conscience and driven to do evil. They are solipsistic, manipulative, opportunistic, parasitic and predatory. They are compulsive pathological liars and deceptive and manipulative. They have no empathy, remorse, shame or guilt. They have no analytical skills and cannot plan ahead and are short-sighted. They are shallow of affect and are remorseless and are insincere and disingenuous. They are faithless and in the absence of any analytical skills, they do not have faith in the analytical skills of others, no matter how much evidence there is of its benefits. They are career and life-long con-artists.
Huh. Are you perhaps familiar with the psychological concept of “projection,” a defense mechanism whereby you project some of your own characteristics – particularly your most unsavory ones – onto someone else, or perhaps a group of people?
Just curious.
No matter how we define or relate to one another as men in the MRM, understanding the distinction between men in the MRM and feminists is more important. That is the enemy which must be destroyed. The other men in the MRM from which each of us are different are our brothers and the only important difference is that between men in the MRM and feminists. That’s the difference which defines us and on which civilization depends.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that the future of civilization doesn’t actually depend on a bunch of bitter, hateful dickwads grousing on the internet about how much ladies suck.
“Ever been to a fundamentalist church service?”
Unfortunately, yes. I said “doesn’t sound like” for a reason, I figure if they had the vaguest clue what any of their -isms mean, they’d have picked different ones. (And of course most of them aren’t fundies, that’d mean men having sex outside marriage was wrong)
Ruby: Yes, I’m a libertarian feminist, unlike liberal feminists. And just as compassionate.
As compassionate as what?
Seriously, as what?
Because you think extra-judicial rape is a legitimate punishment for some things. You think it’s just fine to let people be tormented, even tortured, because it pleases you to think they are getting, “their just deserts”.
You think letting rapists have captive victims is just ducks.
If that’s your idea of compassion, I shudder to think of what you think of when you contemplate vengeance.
When you can say you don’t think rape is ever funny, or justfied, then you might be compassionate, but not until then.
Mass-murderers love their mothers,and the rapists in Sebrenicza were kind to kittens.
That’s not compassion. Not when they did it, not when you do it.
You’ve made your bed, Lie in it.
Kirby: She just wants to make absolutely clear that she considers herself to be compassionate. -_-
She’s also good. She loves her family, and everything. Just like a tax-collector. Therefore what she believes can’t be bad.
I think that really is the crux of all her problems here. She thinks intent trumps results.
Cliff: …what exactly has elements of socialism and fascism? What would that even mean?
They are all three words that end in “ism”, and he doesn’t like any of them, ergo, QED, they are ispo facto one and the same thing i.e. EVIL!!!! He’s analyzed it, and EVERYTHING..(intentional MRA Double Period)
“ergo, QED, they are ispo facto” — *hed esplodes* why, oh why, do we twist Latin?
Even if I’m generous with the translation that’s — therefore, which has been demonstrated, they are the fact itself *hed esplodes* (I hate legal Latin, so don’t take this complaint personally)
OH THAT David Futrelle,
’nuff said,,,
One of my favorite site you might want to join!
http://dontmarry.wordpress.com
Argenti: I’d never make that sentence in anything other than a tongue in cheek, or mocking, usage.
One of them would be enough, e.g. They are evil, res ipso loquitor. 🙂
“res ipsa loquitur” — loquitor is amusingly wrong though (and I should talk, aertheri >.< )
Your extra redundant Latin captured the foaming at the mouth MRA style nicely, even if it makes me go *hed esplodes* in general. (Questioning Latin? MISANDRY!!)
yeah, i actually agree. anybody who views marriage as a ‘business decision’ probably should not be getting married
@Paul
Do either of your comments have anything to do with the rest of the thread?
@Everyone else
Regarding libertarian feminism/compassion, I like Andrew Ti’s recent post on Yo, Is This Racist on non-racist Republicans: http://yoisthisracist.com/post/25875010758/just-wanted-to-say-thanks-for#notes
Paul… do tell. Why would we want to join?
Didn’t we figure out that Paul probably wasn’t who he said he was, anyway? Could we have him banned?
lowquacks — I got bored enough to go digging, I’m pretty sure he is who he says (and stupid enough to give out his home address online). Why he’s still here is beyond me though, perhaps he’s a “2 days til asking us to visit his blog” troll?
I guess now that we’ve caught on to the MRA Double Period, they’ve been forced to move on to the Triple Comma.
Time to begging you to visit his website: 2 minutes.
No no you GUYYZZZ! Ruby has great amounts of compassion! (For herself and people EXACTLY like her)
Ruby, cite one compassoinate thing you’ve said on this site.
Actually, Nazism had some elements, if not of flat-out socialism, at least of state-planned economic activity. The historian Goetz Aly argued that Nazi social welfare policies had a lot to do with the regime’s popularity. The jackbooted thugs may not have subsidized child care, but they did give young “Aryan” couples loans to pay for their apartments and forgave 25% of those loans for each child they had subsequently.
That doesn’t mean that liberals = Hitler, of course, because rational people are capable of separating good ideas from terrible ideas, even when the same people hold both. Hitler also ate food, which I hear is good for your health.
Oh man, that website is amazing.
Sometimes I really wish I lived in MRA-land. Where everyone has thousands of dollars just lying around, and the difference between men and women is just whether you spend it on shoes or not.
I find it telling how many MRA rants forget about the existence of poverty, or even of merely mediocre income. (At least, in the west. All non-western women in MRA-land are so desperately poor they’ll do anything just to get three square meals, and there’s nothing unethical whatsoever about a man taking advantage of that.)
That’s right, moms, you should go to work at a loss because otherwise you might have fun when you’re at home! (He seems to have forgotten that mothers generally have children and you can’t just put them away in your purse so you can go to tennis lessons.)
Also I’m sorta creeped out that he puts “having friends” in the same category of infuriatingly frivolous activities.
Super super revealing: His list of reasons a man might want to get married.
There’s something kinda missing from this list.
Oh, and of course, it’s not an MRA rant without this shit:
boo hoo hoo, women can decide not to have sex with me, this is the worst
Wow… and he assumes men aren’t smart enough to talk to the women they are thinking of marrying to get some idea of what she’s like?
Or are women all so clever no man can escape their wiles.
And what does Patricia think of this?
Paul, for someone who claims to be married, why the hell are you plugging no marriage sites? Are things with you and “Patricia” on the rocks? It’s ok man, every relationship has its ups and downs.
He then goes on to complain, in a “what is this world coming to?” tone, that if a man forces his wife to have sex, he can actually be charged with rape.
These guys don’t have to write these sites, they can just spend their disposable cash on hookers and maids. Problem solved, and they can leave everyone else the hell alone. Shit, if all they want is sex on demand and cooking and cleaning, why not?
“In many Western Nations, the wife is no longer required to have sex with her husband. She can deny him at any time, for any length of time. She can, if she wishes, deny him sex forever and there is nothing that he can do about it.”
They really are oblivious to the fact men can initiate divorce aren’t they? (I assume they see the illegality of rape within marriage as a bad thing.)
