antifeminism creep-shaming misogyny MRA oppressed white men racism reactionary bullshit threats violence whaaaaa? your time will come

Manosphere blogger blames Obama, Jesse Jackson, and feminists for the Aurora theater shootings. Yes, really.

Scientific geniuses: Always white dudes

We’ve already seen some unusual perspectives on the Aurora theater tragedy courtesy of The Spearhead and the Men’s Rights subreddit. Over on whiskeysplace, the manosphere blogger (and sometime Spearhead contributor) who calls himself Whiskey throws some racism into the mix.

In Whiskey’s view, the whole thing just shows … just how badly treated white men are in America today. And, he suggests, unless we change our evil white-man-hating ways we should expect even worse massacres to come. His basic thesis:

[T]hat an (admittedly crazy) 24 year old White guy with an extremely high IQ would paint his hair red, carefully position his beat up old pickup truck against one emergency exit door, enter through the pre-arranged opened other door, and kill (again as of this writing) 12 people while wounding 58, many seriously, shows how out of hand Obama’s America has become.   …

Who is at fault? In no particular order, Obama, the entire Affirmative Action establishment, Jessie Jackson, feminists, the media, and the American people for taking the easy way out and not removing the former from public life through a hard, brutal political struggle that costs time and effort and more.

 

After a long tirade about “low-IQ” black murderers, Whiskey moves on to consider the life of the (apparently) socially awkward, dateless James Holmes, whom Whiskey assumes was oppressed for being a white guy.

Was James Holmes forced out of the University of Colorado for being too White and male? We may never know. But certainly, being White, male, and applying for science related jobs after graduating with honors led to … McDonalds.

Well, not literally. Holmes didn’t actually work at McDonalds. Very few people with undergraduate degrees in neuroscience do.

So you have a very toxic combination. A man with a high IQ, denied any gainful employment or relationship with the opposite sex. … America has become so debased, so hostile to ordinary White guys, that instead of say, devising his own bat-suit and rescuing someone, this guy figures he’s the Joker, and shoots a bunch of people he has never even met, dead.

And it gets worse, according to Whiskey: The continued oppression of white dudes by Obama, the feminists and, er, Russell Brand, will lead inevitably to more massacres in the future:

The constant demonization of White guys, and destruction of heroism as a model, has real consequences. Guys with high IQs who are intent on killing people are dangerous. They get that way not from “turning evil” like a Joss Whedon character in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” but because they are turned away from anything positive, socially isolated and alone while a lucky socially dominant few have everything (before he ever got famous, and with a massive drug habit, Russell Brand boasted he was having sex with 80 women a month). These guys study for years, graduate with honors, and end up at McDonalds. Wrong sex and color.

Yes, because so many of those who work in fast food restaurants are white men tossed out of grad school because of their race and gender.

And those massacres in the future? Because white dudes are apparently all so super smart, we should expect them to be way worse than the ones we’ve seen so far. Like, atom bomb worse.

I want to be as clear as possible. The most dangerous man in WWII, was not Patton, or Rommel, or Yamamoto. No, it was nerdy, lanky, unassuming and part prima donna, J. Robert Oppenheimer. A high IQ unmoored by social ties, love, family, relationships, a job that is not demeaning … is a man who is a potential weapon. 

Whiskey then brings us back around to Obama and his (alleged) anti-white dude agenda:

If Obama’s anti-White guy policies, the media’s demonization of (particularly nerdy) White guys, and the legal discrimination against most non-connected Whites were deliberately constructed to create guys far more dangerous than James Holmes, they could not have done a better job.

Whiskey has somehow convinced himself, based on nothing, that Holmes could have been another Jonas Salk:

Let us be clear. James Holmes had the capacity to maybe find a cure for Alzheimers. Yes he was crazy. But he was smart.

While every white man is capable of intellectual miracles, at least in Whiskey’s mind, those with darker skin are somehow incapable of scientific thought:

Meanwhile Trayvon Martin was never going to amount to much of anything. Ever. And neither will all those young Black man just like him. … Literally any number of people you know, could die, in the future because society did not channel James Holmes into a productive outlet: neuroscience.

Uh, dude, even aside from the racism, there’s no evidence that Holmes actually was a genius.

After a bit more bloviating, Whisky brings it back to Trayvon Martin for his stirring conclusion:

[I]t is [a] fantasy that we can have no cost to marginalizing White guys (particularly the smart ones without connections) and that we can continue to have clean water, and air, and food that is safe to eat, and the power always one [sic], by betting it all on the Trayvon Martins.

Why is it that the guys who talk the most about IQ are invariably such complete fucking idiots?

At first, I was confused as to why Steele was trying to flatter Owly. Why would Steele want to suck up to someone so laughable and absurd? I’d think that anyone would want to distance themselves from Owly as much as they possibly could.

And then I realized that, ridiculous as Owly is, he’s at least occasionally amusing in his stupidity, while Steele’s stupidity is just boring. Owly has some amount of creativity, which Steele lacks entirely. Owly is also sometimes entertaining, something which Steele can never hope to be.

Nooo … but I did hear Steele slap Slavey on the back and then wipe his hand on his jeans.

I’ve noticed that Boobzland seems to be driven- as in this case- primarily by irrationality and emotional impulses, rather than clear, rational and unbiased critical thinking, as is utilized in the Movement.

Like how you clearly, rationally, and un-biased-ly decided to let one comment from a naysaying teacher deter you from your dream of becoming a writer, instead of irrationally and emotionally indulging the impulse to say “screw that, I’m going to write anyway”? Or like how you’re still commenting here instead of, you know, writing?

I mean, I realize comments are written, but you won’t get paid for them as a rule, so they are maybe not the best use of your time if you want to be a writer. I dunno, that’s just my irrational, emotional, and/or impulsive opinion.

Hey, where did Steele go? I wanted the cogent, concise and rhetorically sound analyses of Whiskey’s posts.

OK. Oh, boohoo! All the avatars look so strong and it gives me a bad body image. My feeling are hurt. I’m sad and stuff. I wanna whine about why I’m sad and stuff. Now gimmie a 160K.

Good start. Now, work on being pro-active. Start a blog/website -it’s free!- and post an outline of the project for which you’d like to receive donations. Be certain that you provide some way for people to donate on your site. On your travels through the man-o-sphere, post links to your blog/website and tell other MRAs and MRA sympathizers about your project. Tell them that you need donations to get started. If they’re interested, perhaps they’ll click the link to your blog/website and make a donation.

Then you could get paid for all of your whining.

Steele, not unlike other trolls, ignores things he cant refute in order to continue spouting nonsense at things he thinks he can. He also assumes the subject will be dropped if he ignores it enough.

So did Steele just forget how a couple days ago he was claiming Slavey was a fringe extremist who didn’t represent the movement?

Like most other things, consistency is misandry. As is you pointing out his inconsistency. Why must you persecute Mikey so?

Logic itself isn’t misogynist, obviously! But here are some things that ARE misogynist:

-Claiming men are more logical than women
-Ignoring women’s emotions completely, because they aren’t “logical.”
-Claiming emotional actions by men are “logical,” just because a man made them.
-When a woman is emotional about a subject, but making logical arguments, ignoring the logic and telling her to just calm down.

For those who weren’t around when it first happened, I would just like to point out that Owly’s “logic and reason are patriarchal” straw man is a reference to a DV organization’s chart that lists “using ‘logic'” as an abusive tactic. Owly claimed it was the law, but it was not. And now Steele is patting him on the back for it while both claiming the mantle of Logic And Reason for the MRM and deliberately misrepresenting others.

This delicious irony has many layers. It’s a veritable shit onion.

Huh? I wonder if maybe using “logic” could be abusive? (Hint NWO, point here is that yeah, it can be)

That’s right, Holly. I’m an extremist. Why I didn’t even bless myself before posting here. Blasphemy for sure. If only I’d get in touch with my feminine side, the good side and leave that slavering beast behind. Toxic masculinity is so hurtful to me. And the patriarchy, don’t even get me started. Dresses and gays and trans and feelings and tolerance. More feminism is what men need to end their evil ways. Teach me, Holly. All about the goodness of women so men can be just like women.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few misandric things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few misandric things

Girls (MISANDRY!) in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few misandric things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember misandric things
And then I get really really mad and post a shit-ton of comments on Man Boobz calling everyone vile.

Oh, right, postmodernism is also misandry. As is the idea that words have meanings. Claiming that contradictory things contradict each other is also misandry.
