So when I was poking around on Roosh’s Return of Kings blog the other day I ran across a guest post from someone calling himself Samseau accusing feminists of using racism to exploit men – that is, of expertly manipulating men of different races to fight one another instead of standing firm against the evil feminists and their evil agenda.
The post, while purporting to be somehow “above” the issue of race, is a muddled mess full of “white men have it worst” nonsense like this:
[R]acial infighting between American men wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the political consequences.
Women, if you haven’t noticed, do not fight with each other over racial conflicts. They might get angry over the past, but they are able to resolve all issues by agreeing on a scapegoat: the white man. Colored women will gladly forgive their white sisters, since, after all, it was the white man who oppressed women and minorities.
White men are the big, bad, evil masters, and as such, all females of different colors can agree to put aside their differences in order to bring the white man down.
Yes, he did indeed use the term “colored women.” Oh, but there’s more.
The election results show that decades of brainwashing young American boys has been an unqualified success. Rather than have boys be loyal to their gender, boys have instead been trained to be loyal to their race.
Little non-white boys at the tender age of 9 years are fed lies about how white male oppressors created their poor living conditions, while white boys are taught that they need to correct the injustices of their forefathers lest they be guilty with the indelible sin of white privilege. Female teachers use the appropriate shaming tactics on these young minds to imprint the intended desire for conflict.
All according to plan.
And more:
Men are pawns in the race game. Thus while American women feed themselves government largesse, jobs, university degrees, their husband’s money, and child support money, American men fight each other over table scraps.
But my favorite thing about this article is the little graph that Mr. Samseau made up to illustrate the REAL issues men face today.
Yep. Race is the least important issue, while “getting laid” is number one.
It’s a pretty revealing little chart, huh?
The comment section for the article – wade into this swamp at your own peril – is (predictably enough) filled with angry racists trying to explain why race really does matter. Others, meanwhile, seem upset that all this racism is getting in the way of the regular woman-bashing. Still others suggest that men of all races needed to understand the “root cause” of all our “multicultural problems.” That being … teh Jews.
My favorite comment of the bunch, though, has to be this, from Caliente, combining an astounding ignorance of history with some half-digested evo psych:
Btw the reason why there are practically no racist women is simple.
Males of mammals are territorial.
They naturally base they identity from bottom up: family,tribe,nation,race.And naturally react negative to males of different “tribe”.
Females at the same time are receptive to have sex with any males as long as they are alpha enough.
In 19 century whites fucked all the black women because they were alpha and they had recourses,just look at Brasil.Nowadays a feminist will be cheating on her white beta herbling with some black fitness coach because that is how her brain assumes alphaness.
Wow.
Glad we got that all settled!
Howard is correct about vile, and it doesn’t really work to go “gods that was vile *snicker*”
I do occasionally use the word “vile” to describe the taste of something, well, vile ….
He hasn’t mentioned misandry once though, “vile” was probably a coincidence.
On further reading, there’s a “to whom?” in there, and I haz doubts about Mr. Al’s ability to use whom properly. Then again, native speakers have, um, issues, with it, so yeah, idk if that means not Mr. Al, not French, both, or that ESL teaches “whom” better than English as a first language.
Bzzzzt: I didn’t ask about french feminism in general. I asked how french feminism feels about children.
Your comprehension is lacking: that you are posing. Based on the language you use, I’m of the opinion you are posing, since what you presented looks like a bad book repoort, extracted from a wiki entry on, “the evils of French Feminism” marrieed to a bit of literary snobbing.
And you are stupid: Historophilia, I’ve just written a little subjective story narrating the evolution of mainstream feminism during these 20 years
Which is is, a subjective story, or a history?
Yeah, by not speaking about this group, I’m really SO dim.
Yes, because you ignored that such a stream of feminist theory exists in France.
And you still haven’t answered my question.
Poser.
I didn’t talked about “femmes indigènes” because they’re unknown.
For fuck’s sake, if you want to contradict and insult me, at least, do it correctly : read me.
SO unknown that someone knew about them, and you were able (after Le Google?) to discuss their focus.
Idiot. You really need better bring better game to this little imbroglio you are trying to have.
Damn, you trolled me. You bad faith and negligence have made me angry.
You have been anti-socialed; this means you can have better relations with people; because making them angry improves their happiness.
Some wannabe frog told me that.
Hey Pecunium? Your fingers got ahead of your brain again, which I’m only noting for the sake of getting that in before Brz comments on it >.<
And I should be getting dressed, I have an intake with my psych’s vocational counsellor in half an hour.
I <3 hellkell. 😉
Our upstairs has a separate toilet to the bathroom (hence why kiwis don’t ask to go to “the bathroom” when they’re in the US, many of our houses are like this). Asthma kitty has now developed a habit of coming in when I am using the toilet and doing a little mini-jump with his front paws combined with a “Puss in Boots” wide-eyed expression. This means: I really want to jump up on your lap. And then I get feline paralysis.
Our biggest cat has always liked coming into the bathroom with me to lie on the top of the cane laundry basket (it has a flat top, and is cane) and bake under the heat lamps. For the past couple of months, he also comes to me when I step out of the shower and licks the water off my lower legs. Sometimes he goes to just outside of the shower and lies on the mat, so I have little space to stand when stepping out.
Ragdolls have a tendency to just plop down where they like on the floor. We, as the humans, are expected to step over them.
Argenti: That my brain and my fingers are at all in concert is a bit of a wonder. Eyes are still dilated. Walking home was no fun (windy, cold [it was 60 when I left, at 0645, and about 45; with a cold-ass wind at 0930… fuckers lied to me, it wasn’t supposed to crash until noon. I was worried about overheating, and my ears are still complaining about it]) because the crosswalks were blinding me.
The details of the world are still fuzzy.
And Brzzt! matters not much to me. Toilet paper is more important, and more pleasant (even the Ukranian stuff).
@Kiwi Girl
You have half-baths? I love half-baths!!!
Most UK half-baths have been turned into full bathrooms with knocking down of walls. 🙁 I must make plans to move to New Zealand… (That is Kiwi-topia, isn’t it? My memory is really poor.)
The only issue with separate toilets is to do with low water mains pressure. If someone flushes while you’re having a shower, the cold water disappears from the shower and you just get the hot at 55C (we get told to set our hot water cylinders at that temperature, to save power and to limit/prevent microbial growth). It takes a few seconds to get a burn from water at that temperature, so normally it’s an “oh fuck” combined with a rapid movement away from the stream of water. With the other pressure system option (can’t remember what it’s called), there is no loss of cold water.
But our place has been built weird, so while we are low pressure, the way the cold water feeds this effect doesn’t happen.
But when you said “half baths” my mind immediately went to this. 🙂
@Kiwi Girl
From your link, why did someone think it was a good idea to photograph the shower stall outside under the trees? I am going to be puzzling over that for the rest of the day, I think.
For the rest of the day I shall be puzzling over Tex Live and WinEdt 🙁
Bathroom types: Still more interesting than Bzzzzt.
Bathrooms are fascinating! [/sincerity]
(I play Sims… I am mildly obsessive about their bathrooms… hunger, sleep, social needs are fairly easy to take care of, but a stinky, wetting-themselves sim is desperately unhappy and also has that annoying green cloud.)
@Kiwi Girl
That seems like a much more serious puzzling. (Still though… a bathtub…outside…there are trees!…serious issues there 🙂 ) Good luck!
LaTeX: still more interesting than Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt /snore 🙂
I have been asked by my primary supervisor to not use Word, but to use TeX. I foresee a steep learning curve.
@Creative Writing Student
I’m obsessive about their kitchens and making them IRL nice, which the little guys don’t care about at all. They use one counter and maybe an appliance or two and the rest of it just sits there ignored. 🙁
I mainly just design pretty houses for them, create a family and then leave them unplayed with. The Sims is a really space- and cost-efficient dollhouse. 🙂
LOL, I prefer RPG games, so I’ve been playing Guild Wars 2 and we downloaded Torchlight 2 last weekend, which we’re enjoying. It’s so much more fun than Diablo 3, and I love the cartoon-style graphics.
Baaaaaaaaaaaack when I had a Commodore 64, I had the game Little Computer People. It appears to be the spiritual precedent of Sims.
@Some Gal
I tend to be interested in family lines and genetic diversity. I have five simultaneous legacy families right now. I’ve tried to get as many different genes in as possible, but there are 10 kids so far, 7 of them are redheads, and most of those redheads are S3-S4 (I have geneticised skins so I have more than the four default skins in my usual genetics roundup).
I have no idea how this happened.
@Creative Writing Student
That is so cool! I don’t have the patience for watching the Sims do their thing, but I wish I did. I have a handful of 2nd generation Sims that I intend to someday go back to. Mostly, for the current city, I’m just trying to make sure that I don’t keep making the same 4 Sims over and over (the one that looks a little like me, the “hotter” version of me, the one that looks like the boyfriend, the “hotter” version of him). One city had so many people who looked alike (and had the same last name and set of first names) that it was impossible to tell anyone apart. I accidentally created Camazotz. o.O
Kiwi: TeX has a bit of a learning curve, but it’s sooooo worth it! It’s a very elegant language. (I take it you are in a STEM field?)
@Some Gal
I tend to get my sims to marry townies, so you get a lot of facial diversity (just have to watch out for facial squiffiness that happens).
Also, this happens: http://einhornglitzenkampf-sims.tumblr.com/post/28520619488/one-of-the-best-things-about-the-sims-2
(Yes, that’s my Simblr. I need to upload more pictures of my Sims, but I run them through filters and my laptop with Really Old Version of Photoshop is in for repair and I don’t like GIMP [/MRA-esque whining])
@katz: operations research/computer science, so I guess Yes? I think I fall into the T and the M bits.
