So one of the regulars on Reddit’s The Red Pill subreddit — the “TRP Endorsed” contributor who calls himself IllimitableMan — has worked himself into a lather about the coming Whitepocalypse. You know, the impending collapse of civilization that Mr. Man and assorted other racist asshats fear will come about as a result of white women refusing to pop out the required number of white babies to keep it alive. Sorry, due to white women refusing to “shit out” the required number of white babies. (Mr. Man is quite the defender of family values.)
It pretty much goes without saying that IllimitableMan blames feminism for it all. In fact, over the course of his rambling, repetitive, and rage-fuelled 2,000 word rant he manages to blame feminism for the impending death of the white race roughly half a dozen different times.
Here’s perhaps the most coherent statement of his thesis:
Feminism has infected western civilization, which means by merit of these societies being predominantly white Caucasian, has harmed this ethnicity the most on a global level, reducing its birth rates the most significantly and affecting its various European and anglo speaking cultures the most adversely. …
What we can conclude is that castrating men by raising them to be effeminate whilst simultaneously allowing women too much freedom and self-determination and polluting said women to view men as adversaries leads to a drop in the birth-rate so deep that a society becomes unsustainable, leading to its inevitable collapse.
So why are white women less interested in popping out babies these days? Blame that Alpha Asshole Cock Carousel.
A fundamental criticism of feminism is it taught women to take on masculine traits, to provide, to work hard, it demonised the sanctity of motherhood, it taught women to value career and the self (an overlap with individualism there) over motherhood and family, 21-year-old White Caucasian girls no longer give any fucks about being a mother and a wife like they did in the 50′s and 60′s, no now they’re thinking about jumping on as much cock as possible, getting a degree, going on holidays … and generally fulfilling the sexual and materialistic elements of their hypergamy. Family and reproduction takes a back-seat.
Ah, good old “hypergamy.” I would just like to take a moment to point out that the word hypergamy actually means “the action of marrying a person of a superior caste or class.” Red Pillers and Men’s Rights Activists have so distorted the basic concept that Mr. Man here can use it to mean “fucking lots of dudes who aren’t me, providing for themselves and NOT getting married to anyone” without blinking an eye.
Mr. Man continues:
Society facilitates this as any imposition of responsibility or standards placed on a woman is rationalised away as simple “oppression” some psychological misogyny cards are played and voila, Miss Jane average can diffuse all her responsibilities and continue to live as a completely obnoxious and self-entitled bitch giving no fucks in the world about settling down until her beauty privilege fucks off around the age of 30 aka “she’s hitting the wall.” Whilst she was fucking around in her twenties, the average immigrant woman has already had a couple of kids and they’re attending school now.
Damn you white ladies, for neglecting your duty to the white race and refusing to get married until you’re ugly crones in your (gasp) thirties!
And so, while white birthrates decline, European countries have opened their borders to not-white people who show up and eat not-white food and wear not-white clothes and make a lot of not-white babies. Mr. Man, who is apparently British, notes:
[A]n American friend came to London once and stated “IllimitableMan there are no fucking English people this looks like Pakistan” Yes, I did just throw anecdotal evidence in there, this is a blog – not a fucking thesis and I’m starting to taste prozac in my mouth after the incessantly negative tone this piece carries, of course many of you know as such that the pill can be a bitter bitch.
I felt compelled to look up the actual demographics of London, and found that roughly 60% of London’s population is white — which is what I assume Mr. Man’s friend meant by “English people” — and the vast majority of them are of British origin. Roughly 3 percent are Pakistani, another 3 percent are Bangladeshi, and not-quite 7 percent are Indian.
It’s kind of amazing the effect that bigotry can have on someone’s perception of reality, huh?
Like some other Red Pillers and white supremacists out there, Mr. Man looks to that beacon of hope and freedom in our world — Russia — for the possible salvation of the dying white race.
As usual, like with feminism, Russia seems to be one of the few countries making a stand against egalitarian bullshit and seeing the world for what it truly is, a ruthless and uncaring place, I guess being an inherently “red pill country” and opting to reject the babble of cacophonous radical leftist ideologies has had it benefits for the Ruski people.
The funny thing about Mr. Man’s rant is that many of the basic demographic trends he cites are, in fact, real. White birthrates have fallen, and as he points out, in the US more whites are dying than are being born — though somehow he’s missed the news that the birthrates of immigrants to the US have fallen even faster, with the birthrates of Mexican immigrants falling nearly 4 times faster than that of native-born Americans between 2007 and 2010.
Women have entered the workplace in larger numbers and are waiting longer to marry (as are men). Feminism has something to do with all these changes, but so do changes in birth control technology, in education and in the economy.
So what? The real problem with Mr. Man’s rants is that, for assorted racist and misogynistic reasons, he thinks all this is bad. Europe and the US are becoming more multicultural? Cool. That makes the world a more interesting place. Birth rates are falling, not only for whites but for other ethnic groups? Cool. This planet has already got more people than it can handle, and lower birth rates may be critical if we have any hope of staving off a total environmental collapse.
I’m always a bit perplexed by Red Pillers and pickup artists ranting about how women (whether white women or women in general) need to settle down and get married and start popping out babies because that’s their duty as women. It’s not like Red Pill dudes seem particularly interested in marrying these women and raising these babies with them.
Once again, it seems to come back to the issue of control: they’re angry at women for actually living independent existences in their twenties and — oh my gosh! — sometimes even their thirties or later, and “you’re betraying your race” (whether that race is the white “race” or the human race) is just a convenient excuse to bash women who are not so much “out of control” as out of their control.
I love thrillers and foreign movies, so I loved Tell No One. It had the best on-foot chase scene I can remember ever seeing. I didn’t even care that the plot was the classic Dead Wife story.
I will have to go see The Hobbit in the theater because Mr. S will want to see it, but if it’s boring, I’ll just zone out. At least Peter Jackson’s movies are pretty.
Oops, late.
“When we got home we had whisky and listened to holiday music! It was nice.”
That does sound nice! Good for you.
PJ’s movies are pretty, but I hated King Kong. Booooring.
She likes tiny demon things, tiny vampires…basically we have a budding goth on our hands, which Mr C and I are both thrilled about. Her mom, however, is a bit freaked out.
@Ally- I didn’t mean you didn’t know fus7a. I said that I don’t believe you speak fus7a since no Arab on the street or internet speak fus7a by 3aamiya. Ana aqdar itkallam u aktub metlak (fus7a) lakan mu mishkele ikbire. But I don’t get why you said 3arabiyatek laysa kamila. Sounds kamila to me 🙂
Cassandra: tiny & creepy? I know a few people who keep centipedes, or maybe a solifugid. The camel spider has plus plus points on creepy with the advantage of being non-venomous.
The weather is really, really stupid this year. We spent last week between -30C and about -20C. Today was plus 3. Next week is supposed to be -21, down to -27 toward the end of the week.
And some helpful person graded our road today (with no warning), so now there’s a berm of wet, heavy, mashed-down snow surrounding my car that’s going to freeze solid. I hope I can drive away tomorrow.
@Ally- So in 1 comment you appear zakia but in another, you make comments mitl jaheela SMFH
@Xen- A cave? More like a sandy beach. I understand why you’re jealous.
It’s really cold here in the South Bay Area and Santa Cruz. Just a few mornings ago we had frost in San Jose, and I saw part of a piece of sidewalk covered in ice. And in Bonny Doon (a neighborhood in Santa Cruz) the temperatures dropped as low as 20F.
The worst thing is, a few weeks ago it was so cold that four homeless people in San Jose died due to hypothermia. :{
Unimaginitive…. I cleared the windrow twice last night alone, this morning there was a kid on my door wanting money to clear the new, 2 ft windrow. of course I said yes
You’d think that after living your entire life in the Midwest this cold would be a cakewalk. Nope.
I lived in Colorado for most of my early childhood, and I got used to the harsh winter storms that caused blizzards and the like in the Front Range. (Anyone remember the blizzard of ’03? That was rough.) But it seems that I’ve grown less tolerant of cold weather over time since I’ve been living in the San Francisco Bay Area for about 6 years now.
When it got down to 27 last week I was whining so much. I actually pulled a chair up next to the heater and just hung out there at one point.
Our weather hasn’t been much colder than usual, but the cold has been really persistent. Usually it’s cold for a few days and then warms up to the 70’s for a few, but it hasn’t been above the 50’s for a good while. I know, poor me.
27 in San Francisco? And I thought Santa Cruz was chilly… X_X Sorry to hear that.
@serrana
I like foreign thrillers too. Tell No One was excellent, was surprised to find out it was based on an American novel.
Have you seen these?
The Unknown Woman
Gloomy Sunday
The Tunnel
Black Book
The Lives of Others
Mr. Klein
The Counterfeiters
A Very Long Engagement (not a thriller, but a pretty suspenseful romance)
The Wages of Fear
Anyone for a little snowkitty action?
She’s a torbie, but she looks so dark against all that whiteness…
The only thing better than tortitude is WINTER tortitude.
WTF happened on this thread? And why is the BBC so rapey?
::goes back to read the rest of the comments::
@Bina, what a pretty girl! She looks floofy enough for the weather.
MordsithJ, no, I haven’t seen those. Thank you for the recommendations!
Can I come over and pet your kitty for a while, Bina?
Alice…I KNOW! I figured that was enough triggering for me so I ignored sociopathkenny and skipped most of the comments.
I hated what Jackson did to LOTR. The entire *point* of the books imo was that we *can* recover from the devastation of war, so *why* would he take out the cleansing and rebuilding of the Shire? Rope, ffs. That ruined it for me.
Re: The Hobbit…in LOTR he made the dwarves Pratchett dwarves (remember?!?), but he couldn’t make any of them female? He had *thirteen* of them, at least *one* could have been female! And still cast male! I don’t fucking care! I want to MST3K it with Barbie dolls in chain mail and fake beards.
Argenti.
