Roosh pal: Attack on Pax Dickinson is “like a gang of angry, deformed and diseased street cripples overcoming a confident and successful alpha male.”

Roosh: A baby Hitler for the Internet age?
Roosh: A baby Hitler for the Internet age?

So I want to move on from the whole Pax Dickinson thing, but I feel I would be remiss to do so without first mentioning a remarkable post on Roosh’s Return of King blog with the seemingly innocuous title Pax Dickinson And The Culture Of Tolerance. Written by a Roosh forum regular who goes by the name scorpion (nice), the post is ostensibly a critique of alleged “cultural Marxists” whom, he charges, “claim to be tolerant of everything [yet] are … intolerant of traditional masculine behavior … .”

But his post is in fact a plea for intolerance so over the top that, save for some manosphere-specific jargon, and its focus on “feminists, white knights, manginas, fat acceptance activists and homosexuals” rather than, you know, Jews, it might as well have come straight from the pages of Hitler’s Mein Kampf.

I know, I know. Godwin. But just read this shit. Scorpion accuses the “politically correct internet hit squad” of

encouraging and mainstreaming the most bizarre and marginal human behaviors in a perverse quest to prove themselves the most tolerant of all their peers. …

What this is, really, is the elevation of the deranged and deformed along with the simultaneous tearing down of the strong and traditional. They are threatened by the sight of a masculine, red pill man like Pax Dickinson who unapologetically speaks his mind without fear of offending anyone. … Every time they see him they are acutely conscious of their own inferiority, so they conspire to end him. It’s like a gang of angry, deformed and diseased street cripples overcoming a confident and successful alpha male.

Yeah, not so much.

It’s here that Scorpion really begins to channel old Mr. Hitler.

These people don’t understand that by tolerating every type of degenerate behavior, they are destroying the culture. Imagine what would happen if your immune system suddenly became tolerant of everything. Within days or weeks your body would become host to dozens of infections and viruses, and you would quickly die. That’s exactly what these people are doing to our culture. … And so the body of the West has become filled with disease.

That. my friends, is Fascism.

Naturally, Scorpion predicts that these nasty “cultural Marxists” will get what’s coming to them in the end:

A backlash against these people is starting to build. … Within a few decades will come a rebirth of more traditional values, and these cultural Marxist social justice warriors will become nothing more than a relic of an ignominious era in our history. … Our descendents will be unable to comprehend how such an absurd ideology was able to take root in society. It will be as incomprehensible and perverse to them as the idea of suddenly chopping off their own body parts (which is fittingly a practice esteemed by the social justice warriors under the guise of “transgenderism”).

Is there some sort of new requirement that every article on Return of Kings contain transphobia?

These fools think they have found the one true god, but in reality they are simply a cult of death and decay. They are the patron saints of the sick and the twisted, the degenerate and the deformed. … It’s too late to save the West as we currently know it; but like a Phoenix, a new Western culture will rise from the ashes, a culture with traditional values and a healthy immune system to protect itself against degenerate cultural scum. And it won’t soon tolerate these worshippers of tolerance.

Yes, that’s right, a gang of Don Juan wannabes on an internet forum, united around a skeezy sex tourist and self-professed date rapist, have managed to convince themselves that they are the last bastions of traditional morality in a world gone wrong.

In the wake of Roosh’s viciously racist attacks on the critics of Dickinson, and his publishing of what is essentially a fascist tantrum, I think it’s fair to say that he has thrown his lot in entirely with the racist right wing of the manosphere, alongside such other charming fellows as Heartiste and Jack Donovan and Matt Forney. Indeed, in some ways he’s even outdoing them in the hate department. (Donovan in particular is a lot more affable about his racism.)

It’s a weird choice on Roosh’s part, because the hardest-core white supremacists out there have made very clear that they don’t see him as one of them. Because he’s of Persian descent, and therefore, in their minds, not really white. Indeed, several years back, one regular on the notorious Stormfront forums posted a “warning to Estonian women” that

[a] really nasty sex tourist from America (of Middle Eastern descent) has arrived in Tartu, Estonia. He came from Latvia after staying there a month or two. His goal is to lure into sex as many Estonian women as possible, especially very young girls. His name is Daryush Valizedeh, nickname – Roosh, and he is a pick up artist who believes women should be treated “like garbage”. This includes beautiful, young white women of Baltic and Nordic descent.

The Stormfronters tracked him as he made his way around Eastern Europe; one suggested he was not only not white but that he was literally part Neanderthal.

Roosh and the neo-Nazis: sounds like a match made in heaven.

On the Neanderthals…

I’ve been playing with a story where the Neanderthals never went extinct–it is set with “modern” tech but Neanderthals are still the dominant… um… subspecies in Europe and Western Asia (further East and in the Americas you get hybrid “ethnicities” with strong Neanderthal traits), while Homo sapiens sapiens is firmly established in Africa.

I want to play with some of the legit theories about Neanderthal differences–specifically, I’m looking at low population densities + meat eating as ones with a biological basis and different family structures as socialized differences. But I want to do more research.

I also hope I have a lot of Neanderthal ancestry (I’m white, so it is likely) mostly because (a) I think it is cool and (b) I always hoped that they’d interbred, since it made me sad that we drove our closest relatives extinct.

On that note, one theory I’ve read about the extinction of the Neanderthals is that they didn’t so much go extinct so much as get swamped–modern humans were so much more numerous, that with interbreeding eventually you had no pure either, but the Homo sapiens had the biggest addition to the gene pool.

Oh, and my Neanderthals can talk. And they are not noticeably more ADHD than humans. My MC is a young human woman, and she thinks they are cold adapted, but she’s from equatorial Africa.

The Neanderthal thing sounds like that Indigo Child craze from a few years back, in which bratty kids who refused to do homework were recast as highly evolved, sensitive starchildren from the future. (Fractions are for red-aura dweebs.)

Oh gods, please don’t remind me. Indigo and Crystal children. *shudder*

I know not everyone is as obsessed with r/mr as I am, but they are so scared of the Reddit admins that they’ve created their own web site: http://www.reddit.com/r/MensRights/comments/1mcvqd/offsite_mensrights/

Yes.

Once everyone is an Indigo child, the really special children have to be something else.

(Confession: I have no idea what Crystal children are, but it sounds plausible.)

Argenti:

Basically, it is an New Age attempt to explain autism (mostly) as a result of children being more spiritually advanced. It is all about the color of the auras.

Well, I guess it is an attempt to explain autism and ADHD.

Indigo kids are ADHD kids.

Crystal children are the kids with autism. Or so my Wiki-fu said when I looked it up.

So, technically… I IZ NO CRYSTAL CHILD NEW AGE DUMBNUTS!!11!

Naturally, special children have auras that are colors with cool-sounding names. There’s no Orange Children.

Well, given the New Age roots, I’d guess it was tracking the chakra colours. (Well, Indigo was. Crystal seems to just be there for cool.)

Dog rescue video with manipulative images/video that made me cry:

Bwa … trying to make autism or ADHD to be spiritual advancement? Somehow something that makes it MORE difficult to connect with or empathise with others doesn’t seem to fit the bill at all. That sounds like they’re even getting New Age stuff wrong, and that’s a weird enough concept in itself.

(Disclaimer: I did reiki courses a coupla years back.)

Warning, that video will make you cry.

And of course it’s that sort of nonsense. They’re just kids (because it’s always the kids, nobody with ADHD or autism ever becomes an adult) and kids haven’t done anything wrong, so bad things can’t have happened to them, it must actually be a good thing in disguise!

That paragraph brought to you by “blessings in disguise”, the new age version.

But I’ll be an orange child, seeing how carrots are orange XD (does this make pecunium a mango child? Inquiring minds! [I have no idea why I’m so stuck on the mango thing currently, prolly cuz my case of the blahs requires a humor injection and Sir Pecunium can be thwarted with a ripe mango])
