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!
Looks like Brz just got himself kicked out if the “non-victim” group he wanted to start.
That or the troll can’t be bothered to stick to a consistent persona.
Oh, and my Sims don’t live in the suburbs. They live cities. 😛

Brz, this link’s just for you: http://theconversation.edu.au/no-youre-not-entitled-to-your-opinion-9978.
Damn, borked the link: http://theconversation.edu.au/no-youre-not-entitled-to-your-opinion-9978
CWS – I have been playing Seasons for years, and it never even occurred to me to use the seasons to synch my households. I’m still not sure it would work 100%, because I tend to be goal-driven in my playing (“ok, I’ll stop as soon as she gets her next promotion”). But it’s a hell of a lot easier than making tick marks in a spreadsheet.
Brz – there’s an expansion pack that lets you live downtown. Or were you just meaning to be sneeringly dismissive? If so, you have fun with that.
Not sure wtf is up with Kiwi Girl’s link but hopefully … this will work.
Hey, speaking of uniting and fighting and something more interesting than whatever Brz is on about, I have a cat question…
My cousin has flown “back home” to bury another cousin (her sister) and take care of some business. While she is away, we are watching her cat, “Fatty,” who is a very pretty and loving house cat that is not used to being around other cats.
I say this because I have my own cat, “Samson,” a fairly loud but also very pretty and loving Siamese who is also not used to being around other cats. After a few days of Samson howling and hissing, Fatty being intimidated by Samson’s noise, and Samson being intimidated by Fatty’s size (3x that of Samson’s) they have mostly come to an understanding.
So now Samson (older, but playful) wants to play with Fatty (loving, but chill) after seeing that he’s not that big of a threat. Unfortunately, Fatty doesn’t really know HOW to play. He also “love nips,” which I’m trying to get him to stop doing. This means that Samson follow Fatty around, do his typical leap with a half twist and bat at Fatty’s tail, and Fatty will walk away the first ten times, but then turn around and BITE Samson the 11th time, and he’s not a gentle biter when annoyed.
Any suggestions for how to either stop Samson from harrassing Fatty, or to stop Fatty from biting Samson, or both? They are no longer afraid of each other, but they still don’t completely understand each other.
P.S. Something hilarious has happened… Samson has consistently been eating Fatty’s food and Fatty has consistently eating Samson’s food. Also, Samson believes that Fatty’s litter box is another convenient place for him to make his deposits. Fatty cannot retaliate, however, as Samson’s box is covered and Fatty cannot fit in there. =)
@burgundy
If we took away Brz’s ability to be sneeringly dismissive, he wouldn’t have anything to say. He is rather boringly one-note.
Ninja’ed on the link!
Pecunium, how do you train a cat?!
So I guess we’re giving up on the pretending-to-be-French thing?
@Dagrabbit, while they may get used to each other, they may still not like each other. You could try either separating them completely or playing with Samson so he’s not interested in trying to play with Fatty. There could be an element of jealousy on Samson’s part as he’s not “only cat” at the moment.
But both the trying to play and the biting are natural cat behaviours. 🙁
Brzzzt!: You haven’t used anything else than arguments of authority and shaming stuff.
So you have proof for this assertion from the authority of your assumptions? You who tossed in Ad Homs of de Beauvaiore and Satre, rather than deal with their arguments?
she goggled to find French feminist groups that I had not quoted
How do you know she was unaware?
If she did google, how does that contradiction of your argument (that no one has heard of/talks about them) affect her argument?
Since all you did was refer to well known (and somewhat out of focus in the present) feminists, how does that reflect on your claim to know what is going on in modern French Feminism.
And how do/did French feminists see child-rearing?
No, shaming fits perfectly, I mean someone said earlier that calling someone crazy is ableism… I don’t want to believe that this person could be serious, I don’t want to think about the implications of such way of thinking.
Yeah, I can see where you would be against a non-othering form of dealing with a large minority. I can see where a more inclusive society might bother you; what with your inane ideas about the social value of anti-social speech
But hey, you are the, “I’m too tough to let myself be a victim of mean language”.
Well, no, you aren’t. Whiny-assed titty-baby is what are.
Dagrabbit, you could try to play with Samson and tire him out a bit so he doesn’t have as much energy to bother Fatty. You could also play with both of them at once (one toy per cat – you may need a partner for this), so Samson can play “with” Fatty without needing to bug him.
@Dagrabbit
I think that if Samson isn’t bothered enough by Fatty’s biting to stop harassing, there isn’t going to be that much you can do other than maybe try to give Fatty a place away from Samson? I don’t know if that is possible, but it would be what I would try to do. It is what we did when my cat was still a bit of a kitten and would terrorize my in-laws’ almost cartoonishly skittish cats. We just kept our cat away from the spaces they hid in as much as possible.
Best I can think of would be to reward Fatty when he bites anything that isn’t Samson, but idk if that’d really condition him to associate biting Samson with having a treat withheld — this is Pecunium’s area though, I’m much better at conditioning things you want them to do (and fish really are remarkably easy to train!)
@Argenti: shaping and chaining reinforcement schedule.

For the record, I wasn’t unaware. One of my favourite hip-hop artists is a French anarcha-feminist WOC, you pick stuff up.
But even if I did Google it, it would still be paying more attention to actual French feminism than Brz did.
Is anyone finding Brz fun to nom on? Because if not I’m going to respectfully suggest that he be put on ignore until he goes away, especially given the socky smell wafting from his direction.
He was fun when he was pretending to be French; now he’s just tiresome.
@Argenti Aertheri
I just don’t know what to say. I mean, if I’d hurt you, I’m really sorry.
I just can understand this thing. Now, I realize why every day the only thing I want is to take the first plane and go home. I should be a kind of alien for you. I just can’t understand that a word used in an unrelated context can harm people, I try to understand but I think I can’t.
I really hope the best for you. I hope that one day you will realize that words aren’t magical, that giving words more impact that they should have in a way of not being hurtful just create more violence.
You can’t make use of provocation because for you it’s just hurtful. I think it’s sad and it scares me.
I think I’ve finally found what I was searching here. Bye.
Please don’t let the door hit you on the way out, we’re fed up of cleaning the troll butt-scuffs off it.
OK, the sheer overwroughtness of that flounce has amused me. “I think I’ve finally found what I was searching here?” 6/10.
TrollQuest – The Boredom is over now? Awesome.
@Cassandra, if trolls were smothered in cheese sauce they might be a bit more tasty.
Guns don’t kill trolls, magic missiles kill trolls. 🙂
