Hawaiian Libertarian: “Misogyny is the key to male liberation from blue pill delusions.”

This pedestal is a trick illusion.

It’s amazing how daintily some manosphere dudes dance around the word “misogyny.”After spewing forth venomous woman-hating filth in post after post, they turn around and equally vociferously deny that they are in any way misogynistic – after all, they can think of three or four women in their life they don’t actively hate.

It’s strange. Men whose entire political and social philosophy is based on the hatred of women aren’t willing to say this out loud.

Over on Hawaiian Libertarian, a blog with some influence within the marginal universe of the manosphere, Keoni Galt is a bit more honest: he is proudly and openly misogynist. Not only that, but he’s convinced that others in the manosphere need to fully accept misogyny into their shrunken little hearts. And he’s written a little manifesto about it:

Misogyny is the key to male liberation from blue pill delusions. Only by embracing it, can men adopt a new paradigm in which the female of the human species has forever been knocked off of the pedestal that had been erected in our minds by institutionalized brainwashing and mass media programming.

Galt starts out with a fairly standard-issue manosphere confessional. Turns out that before he saw the light – sorry, took the red pill — he was a poor female-besotted white-knight mangina like most of the unlucky males of this world:

Back in the blue pill days, I was enchanted and mesmerized by the female gender as a whole. Tell-a-Vision and a childhood steeped in Churchianity had me forever looking at the female gender as the only bright light in a world of shit. I was indoctrinated into becoming a worshiper at the feet of the pedestal of the “sacred feminine.”

The last thing I ever wanted to become, was a misogynist. No, I bought into the delusion that the key to being accepted and gain the approval of the female herd was to become the vaunted WhiteKnight-EmotionalTampon- InTouchWithMyFeelings- LJBF-NICE GUY.

Oh dear, we have to listen to the sad, boring tale of the Nice Guy once again.

All a woman…ANY woman (not just young, attractive ones)…had to do when I was younger, was smile at me or give me a pathetic pleading look, or a nice sounding request and I was ready to do her bidding. The bat of an eyelash or a supplicating sound of her voice had me ready to ask her “how high would you like me to jump?”

I helped ladies move, “lent” them money (never asked for it back, mostly never got paid back either), given them rides, helped them with homework, built them things, fixed their cars, bought them drinks and/or meals…anything any female in my life requested, I did. “NO” was not a part of my vocabulary when it came to dealing with the opposite gender.

Helping friends isn’t a character flaw. But you’re the one who made yourself into a doormat.

I also spent many a time with groups of female friends, joining in on the “all men are pigs” type of conversations. I’ve been that “one of the girls” guy on many an occasion. (“You’re so COOL! Why can’t more guys be like YOU?!” 

But, Galt assures us, he wasn’t one of those passive-aggressive, guilt-tripping dudes who tries to “nice guy” his crushes into bed.

I’m not talking about being the “nice guy” here in hopes of getting a romantic response from a particular female. These are women for whom I knew as friends, acquaintances, co-workers, colleagues etc. In other words, if it had a vagina, I said “yes dear” to any and every request, simply to live up to the expectations inculcated in my mind on how a “good man” is one who serves the feminine imperative.

My indoctrination and upbringing had trained me to seek feminine approval above anything else.

What the hell kind of “indoctrination” did you get? Did you grow up in some sort of Goddess Cult? I’ve never met a single other person who’s been “indoctrinated” in this fashion. It’s almost as though you’re exaggerating or just making shit up in such a way as to justify your present-day misogyny.

Oh, wait, you are:

I’ve come to the realization that misogyny is the inevitable antidote one must accept, after gaining an understanding of the ugly truth of the female imperative and how it works to enslave men for it’s own purpose.

Yes, the only two options for men in the contemporary world – the only two — are to either bend over backwards and do everything women ask them to do in a creepily self-abasing way while agreeing that “all men are pigs,” or to decide that women are shit. (It’s not like this is a logical fallacy or anything.)

Most women nowadays really are beneath contempt. Manipulative, conniving, self-centered and solipsistic…especially beautiful ones.

[citation needed]

I now understand that this is the result of the programming most females are inculcated with from the same mass media culture that programmed me to be a pedestal worshiper.

[citation needed]

Actually, ALL women are solipsistic and manipulative to a certain degree (AWALT). It is their very nature. The real problem is that our mass media culture encourages women to embrace it, revel in it, and use their power of attraction to manipulate for their own selfish ends. It has always been like this, I just never recognized it until the hindsight as seen through the clarity of understanding that came with taking the red pill.

You realize that what you call the “red pill” is just a slightly exaggerated and updated version of not-so-good old fashioned misogyny, which has been around since the beginnings of civilization if not earlier?

But one thing this misogynist will admit: Not all women are like that. Really. I know a few.

Dude, dude, you just literally said that ALL women ARE like that. Like, in the paragraph you just finished writing.

These are women who understand that the true path to happiness is creating a sphere of nurturing and contentment amongst her friends and family. Such women are a literal joy to be around. There contentment is infectious.

“There contentment?” If these women truly loved you, wouldn’t they help you proofread your drivel?

But for most women I meet, my baseline assumption is that they are contemptuous creatures not worthy of anything other than basic human consideration…unless and until they prove otherwise.

Well, my baseline assumption is that the dudes of the manosphere are a bunch of pompous douchenozzles. And so far, I’m not altogether happy to report, not one has provided even a shred of evidence suggesting otherwise.

Is it just me, or is this:

not entirely dissimilar to the Shieldmaiden (what a name!) thing?

Galt starts out with a fairly standard-issue manosphere confessional.

I read this as “Galt starts out with a fairly standard tissue manosphere confessional”, and suddenly it all made sense.

Oh lord, shield maidens. Yes, gender traditionalist women, name yourselves after the viking women who went out and axed, sworded, and speared Christian dudes (and women, when the occasion arose). That won’t make you sound ignorant at all XD

That aside, Morkais, they deliberately ape feminists without understanding them, so yes.

But for most women I meet, my baseline assumption is that they are contemptuous creatures not worthy of anything other than basic human consideration…unless and until they prove otherwise.

I know DSC says this a lot, but he is making the point of the imaginary women in his head for them.

“In other words, if it had a vagina, I said “yes dear” to any and every request, simply to live up to the expectations inculcated in my mind on how a “good man” is one who serves the feminine imperative.”

From my point of view, such behaviour is an example of terrible chauvinism. If you want to be a “good man”, you should help everybody regardless of the gender. He was a chauvinist already before (if he is telling the truth), now he’s a misogynist. No big difference there…

@crocodile: Agreed on that one!

People: be nice to people, for they are all people. That sums up my views…

Ugh, i’m from hawaii and it is kind of a small world (or at least, you’re often encouraged to think that it is!) so i immediately went to see if we had ‘friends in common’ on FB, not thinking he’d be using a pseudonym. Foiled by internet anonymity!

I’ve seen it wished for before (like in that MRA shirt thread) but an identifying marker for MRAs would be so excellent. Although i really do wonder if they’d say half of this crap if it could be easily attributed to them.

I would dearly love to hear from any of the women this MAN used to hang with, just to get their perspective on what he USED to be like.

We could call it “A Thousand Little Pieces (of dishonest misogyny)”

Solipsistic: Of or relating to the belief that the self is all that you know to exist

A person can’t be solipsistic. I think the word he looking for is selfish, self-absorbed, or self-centered. Solipsistic can’t describe a person.

At least he’s using that philosophy degree though.

Last night, bleary eyed up in the middle of the night, I looked at Hawaiian Libs blog for the first time, pretty quickly. I got the impression he was a conspiracy theorist.

Also, I thought he was one of the few who wasn’t anonymous & that was his real name. No matter. I wonder which island he lives on? We are going to Hawaii very soon!

Oh, “LJBF” is supposed to be “Let’s just be friends”.

I always remember that as the euphemism to let people down lightly, more than an actual friend request, tbh. Which is fine, but it’s kind of amusing how these losers have twisted it XD

@Newbie, cool about your trip, have fun, don’t let the misogynists bite 🙂 may i ask about what island(s) you may be visiting? i’m from Oahu myself so i don’t know hardly anything about the other islands (one of those ‘if you were raised there you never do the fun/touristy stuff’ things) but if you are going to oahu and need food recommendations, boy*, do i have some ono grinds for you to check out!

Really bitter, pathetic, twisted rants.

Yep, definitely making shit up to justify his hatred. His perception of women is extremely warped, and he, like the other MRAs, are in need of therapy. But then, I suppose they’d think they were being, “indoctrinated into becoming a worshiper at the feet of the pedestal of the “sacred feminine.”

I’m going to say it again, they really need to drop the red pill-blue pill shit as an analogy, since a woman co-produced, co-wrote, and co-directed that shit. They should go find some project that only involved mens to draw their analogy from.

Oh, I love this new meme that Christianity is female dominated. It’s a fascinating bit of….ugh, trying so hard not to use marginalizing language here. Delusion. It’s delusional.

They seriously refuse to accept that women are not obligated to have sex with every person who is attracted to them.

@Heidihi, Maui…in the fall…our second time there, identical trip…to finish everything we didn’t do the first time! There’s so much to do there! We were together eight years & had never been able to go away on vacation anywhere on a plane & then when we finally did it was all the way to Hawaii. Something really stressful & heartbreaking is going on at home right now, but I am getting kind of excited.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was filmed on Oahu, I believe (& Lost, of course). Almost a cult classic. I used to almost throw up with laughter at the deleted scene of Sarah on the horse.

No surprise here: benign sexism is correlated with hostile sexism. You just switched emphasis, O former worshipper of the Divine Feminine. Same shit, different day.

I do like “Keoni Galt,” though. These Manosphere blokes like to take a theme and run with it, don’t they?

This is the MRM, how many actually believe transwomen are really women? I’m sure they think she’s really just a confused man who’s swallowed a few too many blue pills.

I totally forgot about that! You’re right; they would never accept the status of Lana and will still refer to them as the Wachowski brothers.

As opposed to, what, screwing his brains out? I’m not a Christian myself, but it was my understanding that a sexual relationship with Christ is not generally expected or encouraged.
