Today I’m feeling lazy, so I’m just going to pass along some thoughts from Mark Minter, a fellow best known, insofar as he is known, for leaving melodramatic manospherian manifestos – look, three “m’s” in a row! — in other people’s comments sections. I’ve written about him before — twice! — and he’s recently returned to his old habit of leaving his droppings in the comments here.
This little masterpiece of purplish prose, however, was left in the comments section of Roosh V’s Return of Kings blog (and brought to my attention by a commenter here), where he gets a much friendlier reception than he gets in these parts. His topic: Returning to the United States after spending time abroad. (I’ve cut out big chunks of his comments, as Minty is a tad long-winded.)
I have been back 3 years and I do not seek to engage America in any way. I stay home, on the internet. I shop in the middle of the night for food. When I must be out in the day, I move quickly, efficiently. I interact little with this society that I am no longer a part of. Some of that is age but a lot of is that I have killed my American self and I feel no affection for it, no loyalty to it, and I shall discard it forever, soon. The only connection is feel to it is you, you band of renegade rebels to whom I feel a kindred spirit.
We few, we happy few, we band of douchebags!
Despite the claims of feminists, America is the Matriarchy, the land owned and dominated by women and their mangina menservants, their guards, their infrastructure that so caters to them, their laws.
Yes, it’s true. Along with its mangina manservants — hi, everybody! — America has a Matriarchal Infrastructure. For example, this power plant, located just outside Dacron, Ohio, is devoted entirely to providing electricity for women’s Hitachi Magic Wands.
Anyway, back to Mark’s riveting ruminations:
You see it when upon landing in America. In other places, immigration is almost a “lip service”, a gang of sorts to get money from you when you arrive and when you leave. The security you must pass, when entering. is almost a joke compared to what you encounter when you arrive in America. And it is far greater when you leave, those airlines and airport security forces have a procedure that is not so much that the idea of the country you are leaving, but rather the dictates of America, and its women.
Clearly, only women want border security. If it were up to men, anyone could just waltz in no questions asked, carrying bombs, heroin, large snakes, strange insects, bootleg t.A.T.u. CDs, what have you.
And here you are not a man, but a functionary, a manservant, a slave to women. You see it when you arrive, you feel it, you know it, that stripping of your masculine dignity that begins the moment you leave the plane and enter an American terminal, that herding, that loss of the you that is you. And you see it as you come out on these clean, lit streets, this great giant boring shopping mall, all designed for women, all policed for women, all at the behest of women and those manginas that have bought in … .
Damn you, America and your good lighting! Fuck you and your infernal lack of litter!
It is more than merely cultural, more than social, it is even biological. This matriarchy has dominated even nature here, controlled every last aspect, even the dirt, even the germs, all of the animals, and certainly, all of the men.
It’s true. ALL OF THE ANIMALS. Even my cats are women. Spoiled, pampered women who expect everything handed to them on a silver platter!
Well, not so much a silver platter as little paper plates. Also, I make them poop in a box. But you get the idea.
If you stay, you will remain in angst, a slave to women.
When I close my eyes the image I see is elsewhere.
Weird. I see the completely unilluminated inside of my eyelids, which is not a terribly interesting view.
And when I die, the fact I got to live elsewhere for a time, will dwarf what I feel about here. It is the basis of my rants about marriage and this American life as a married man being insipid, stupid, and a waste of the life of man. Because it ties you to here, it chains you, it removes your option, your hope, that you might leave, and seals your fate as a slave.
So, I guess … don’t get married then? Problem solved!
I don’t think the women of Matriarchal America are going to miss out greatly from you removing yourself from the marriage market. So, seriously, go right ahead.
NOTE: There is no Dacron, Ohio.
MRAs conveniently forget that ANGER is also an emotion.
You know the old cliche about fish not recognizing water because they’re swimming in it all the time? MRAs are like that with anger. Screeching rage is their natural state so they don’t even notice that it’s an emotion.
Even more than that: they think screeching rage = manly menz cool rational LOGIK.
You know, I’m fairly sure fish recognize “not water” or rather the smarter of them get that there’s an “out there” (the puffers are quite fascinated by this and will swim right up to the glass)
Not quite recognizing water, but MRAs should recognize “not angry” as a state that does not describe them.
feministx, I’ve just spent half an hour reading your blog and various comments on Heartiste and you are obviously no feminist. I’m not saying you are a troll, but you do seem to have a history of wandering “innocently” into feminist spaces and getting offended when your comments receive a critical reception. I’m curious what has motivated you to come over here.
Do MRAs even recognise that they’re angry?
They’re certainly not as smart as your average fish.
All this talk of water and not-water reminds me irresistibly of the crabs and the Eyeballs In The Sky in The Perishers.
If it walks like a troll and quacks like a…what noise do trolls traditionally make anyway? Around here it seems to be a combination of buzzing like an angry wasp and whining like a toddler.
The shriek as they get punted into the river by a billygoat?
Speaking of which, this is the Little Golden Book version I had:

This Footrot Flats strip is my favourite troll cartoon ever.
feministx: why bother coming here? Is it because the RoK comments section is like your only source of validation? How sad.
MInter lives in Austin. Fuck. I hope it’s far enough away from me.
New Minter post is up!
Ergh… I think I ran across Kate and months budding romance on her blog. Yeah, she swallowed a red pill all right. So much simmering on her part. Who knows, maybe she’ll actually be happy with him.
My guess is that minty is planning on moving into Kates place.
hellkell – you’d probably be safe. After all this is the guy given to doing his errands at night to avoid all those dreadful girl cooties.
“Mark would send our son a birthday card and token gift, yet completely ignore his daughters birthday. This year was the first time in 5 years that he actually acknowledged her.”
god this is so cruel, I’d rather be beat than that, I hope she’s dealing with this well
Thanks for the marvelous posting! I genuinely enjoyed reading it, you happen to be a great author.I will make sure to bookmark your blog and may come back someday.
I want to encourage you to ultimately continue your great work, have a nice day!
“I was 21 and stupid when I met him. I am 52 now. ”
Translated, you were hot then, now your not. So of course he dumped you.
Hey guys, Minty’s here!
And of course Minty is soooo hot himself.
I’m sure she’s plenty hotter than HE is. At least she’s done constructive things with her life. What’s HE done?
Did Minty ever get married like the rest of the manosphere freaked out about?
yep -i am clearly a pig: https://www.facebook.com/suzanne.s.minter
2 things: 1) I divorced Mark and 2) he is still living in his sister’s spare room. No internet bride for him!
I am shocked, shocked I say, that Minty is still living at his sister’s place. Did his internet bride wise up or did she never actually exist?
@ Suzanne
So the bride-to-be wised up, then? Good, I was a bit worried about her.
Did we hear whether or not Mintys’ bride to be was real or not? She was claimed to be some sort of FeMRA, wasn’t she? I’m still half inclined to think she was FigmentFeMRA. Maybe Minty gave up on the tale after all the MGTOW’s frothings about treason. Or maybe, if she was real, she said “Fuck this” for that or associated reasons (ie. Minty’s a loser).
