So the uber-manly woman-hating woman-chasing alpha dogs over in the Red Pill subreddit are discussing the declining marriage rate. Which is a GOOD thing. Because marriage is for BETAs and FRUMPY WOMEN! It’s worse than RAPE!
![Marriage is RAPE - so if marriage goes down, then it's a good thing. permalink source give gold save hide child comments [–]Max___Power 49 points 1 day ago (64|15) No, it's worse. Marriage is institutionally promoted to men as a positive. If I ever took a contract to my lawyer where the other party could opt out at any time AND take 50% of MY shit with them, he'd chase me out of his office and yell at me to find a hobby. Yet men willingly purchase $30,000 flawed rocks for the privilege of asking a frumpy woman to sign such a contract. LO freaking L, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.](https://i0.wp.com/www.wehuntedthemammoth.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/wnosemarriagerape.png?resize=580%2C236&ssl=1)
Huh. If any of these Red Pill dudes were to get married I’m pretty sure it would be be a completely, you know, consensual act on their part. Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t rape a, you know, nonconsensual thing? (Reading the Red Pill subreddit, it’s sometimes hard to remember.)
At this point a fellow calling himself TheZimmerMan throws in his two cents on the subject. Like his fellow Red Pill alpha dudes, he’s no fan of marriage. But then he remembers that feminists are supposedly plotting to take down western civilization by destroying marriage. And feminists are bad, right? And so his brain sort of explodes, producing this wondrous bit of red pill word salad, sprinkled liberally with racism as well as misogyny:
Wow. Just wow.
I’ve never seen “Disney” used as a verb before.
Also, I’m not exactly sure what “they want everyone to be on welfare barley subsiding” means. Unless the government has started up some sort of barley redistribution system I can only assume he meant “barely subsisting.”
I also like the complaint about how the “actual working man” pays for all these evil welfare moms while “being denied traditional provider respect and benefits.”
In misogynist-speak, that’s code for “how come we have to pay money for welfare when we don’t even get to fuck the welfare moms and boss them around?”
Red Pill dudes: please continue your marriage strike. Also consider: A vow of silence? Moving to a desert island? Living the rest of your life in a hole in the ground?
(Thanks to Gemma_Lou in the Blue Pill subreddit for pointing me to this wondrous Red Pill discussion.)
I write terribly, but even I know not to switch between a passive and active voice in the same sentence. Sheesh, TheZimmerMan!
I’m disappointed now. I thought we were all going to be given barley and start brewing our own beer.
I like the casual racism thrown in just in case we weren’t aware of how awful this guy’s world is.
Funny, I’ve never actually met a feminist woman who wears anything fancier than a plain wedding band – and more than a few decided to forego rings altogether because “spending $30,000” on “flawed rocks” struck them as less important than investing in their families (personally, we decided to ditch the rings and put the money we might have spent towards our honeymoon, instead).
But I guess that if I’m a married feminist woman who doesn’t wear a ring, that must mean that I’m clearly trying to keep on riding that ol’ carousel while keeping my domesticated beta providing for me, right?
only one slur short of a trifecta!
*tears up ticket*
Only men pay taxes? I learn something new every day.
Disney is a verb now? Dissolvation? Is it somehow considered unmanly to use a dictionary for these idiots?
“…$30,000 in flawed rocks…”
I guess they mean engagement rings…. erm… who the hell has 30,000 to spend on an engagement ring?
And yet again, it all boils down to their RAGE that women now have the option of leaving a bad marriage.
Yesterday I learned “to damsel” is a verb. Now it’s “to Disney.” Hm.
So, have these guys never heard of prenuptial agreements?
And without being ruined financially and socially.
I suspect they’d reluctantly regard it as a compromise if they got to keep 100% of their wofe’s money AND knwo she would be shunned by everyone.
Or even “wife” and “know” /oops
No, no, they don’t mean engagement rings. They actually bought a truckload of $30,000 worth of poor-quality rocks.
There’s certainly a truckload of poor quality rocks between their ears.
What, no slavery or holocaust metaphors?
@katz
How many tigers would that buy?
“and take 50% of my shit”
Yeah, their understanding of alimony and divorce settlements is deeply flawed. Hint: the only circumstances under which they get 50% of your shit is if they’ve literally spent their life making it possible for you to get all that shit.
And I mean literally in the primary sense of a literal meaning of my words, not in the secondary sense of a totally figurative meaning, which is now a recognized dictionary sense of literal.
Yay, dictionaries, cataloging actual usage, not proscribing it!
Boo, dumb English users, using language in ways I personally do not like.
So wordpress tried to eat that post. I hit ‘back’ and the comment was still there, ‘post comment’ and it posted.
Take THAT, wordpress!!
It’s times like these that I’m so grateful for this site and others (like the blue pill) because the minute I hear any “key” words that they (meaning the mrm, pua, red pill communities) use a lot or anything resembling their warped views outside the internet I’m not even going to puzzle over it; I’m just going to run the other way. Thankfully I haven’t run into any of them IRL yet. That I know of anyway. I know a few that would be quite receptive to their views though. Ugh.
If these guys are running around in a world where they can drop $30,000 on an engagement ring, can’t they afford to help out a few moms on welfare? We’re talking a drop in a bucket here!
@Howard Bannister, that reminds me of a Jayne quote from Firefly:
“Ten percent of nothing is—let me do the math here. Nothing into nothin’. Carry the nothin … nothing.”
Looks like the ZimmerMan (labeling himself in case we’re not sure he is racist) has been contaminated by anti-intellectualism.
At least he sees women for what they are: scheeming barleydiggers! At $1.19/lb, rabid lady-barley addicts will destroy western civilization shortly, and shift the man-capital to Asia to buy precious Korean barley autographed by Kim il Sung, feminist hero. Hey, that gives me an idea for a documentary to establish a connection between low sense of humour and lady-barley hoarding.
Don’tcha just hate it when feminists trivialize rape by using the word inappropriately? Feminists are terrible.
I never realized that so many women want to cryogenically preserve their heads after death. I didn’t even know it was called “to Disney”. The times, they are a changing.
