Well, you have to admire their ingenuity, I guess: The terrible people at the lady-hating megasite Return of Kings have figured out a way to blame feminism for … revenge porn.
No, really. Here’s the argument, such as it is, from regular RoK contributor Mark Webster:
What we are seeing with so called ”revenge porn” is an example of the disturbing but inevitable consequences of the first generation of women who, brainwashed by feminist propaganda, truly believe they can do no wrong, and that there are no consequences for their actions. …
Like so many other modern social problems, feminism is definitely to blame for “revenge porn.” This warped ideology has always irresponsibly promoted the delusional idea that women have all the same rights as men, but without responsibilities or consequences for their actions.
They were the ones who encouraged a life of reckless hedonism and narcissism for young women, with no thought for their futures. They were the ones who spun the gross lie that being pumped and dumped by men who couldn’t care less about them is “empowering.”
Webster pauses for a moment to reflect on the possible culpability of the ex-boyfriends who, you know, actually posted these pictures online as a form of petty revenge, but figures that, since the women chose to go out with these guys, it’s really still the women’s fault anyway.
Now admittedly putting them on the web for the whole world to see is a pretty low act, but they don’t call them bad boys for nothing. You can bet your bottom dollar these are the guys who are far more likely to receive and distribute “sexts” than the nice guys forever languishing in the friend zone.
Lovely.
Webster is right about one thing, though: the proliferation of revenge porn is very definitely related to the issue of consequences. That is, the almost complete lack of consequences faced by the dirtball guys who post these sometimes stolen, sometimes gifted pics online without permission.
But that has started to change. Let’s hope the 18-year-sentence meted out to revenge porn kingpin Kevin Bollaert — who combined internet-age skeeviness with some old-fashioned extortion — is a sign of things to come.
The readers of RoK have some rather different ideas about possible “solutions” to revenge porn.
(If you’re having a decent day, or would simply rather not read puerile fantasies about domestic violence and suicide, you may just want to stop reading here.)
As Black Poison Soul sees it, any woman who takes nude pics of herself should face these “consequences.”
1/ tattoo the word “slut” on her face
2/ put her into the local sluttery (aka free whorehouse)
3/ problem solvedPlus it semi-forces the red pill down men’s throats. I would think it’s hard to validate some whore when you constantly see “slut” every time you look at her face. Even if you’re a blue-pill white-knighting mangina enabler.
Remember. There is always a loser in the game of musical cocks.
Idonggor thinks the problem would be solved if American men were more willing to, well, punch “their” women.
As much as I dislike feminist bull dykes and other self entitled cunts, I also equally blame American men for acting like faggots. I hear many times even from so called “red pill” men that hitting women is wrong.
With that kind of mentality, you are bound to get a chick who will act out of her line.
In the Middle East and certain parts of Russia (where it is ruled by ALPHA MEN), girls would not dare to act like spoiled Americunts. Why?
Because they are scared of their men.
You need to get your women to be scared of you guys…. Have her fear you.
I used to feel sorry for American men for getting all the shit but you guys pretty much deserve it.
If you act like coward faggots, you are doomed to get your women acting like cunts.
BlueSkyGreyWolf, meanwhile, suggests that women who have their pics posted on the internet without their permission just kill themselves.
If the stupid cunts are so guilt ridden ain’t nothing stopping them from killing themselves. In fact, the more worthless female parasites who off themselves, the better off the woorld will be.
Something must be terribly wrong with the “red pills” these guys are taking; they seem to be turning everyone who pops one into literally the worst human beings on planet Earth.
But…but…what if I want to be a heathen?

Indeed. T’was a serious U WOT M8 moment, that.
I’m just relieved he’s a troll and not seriously writing conspiracies about the man who wrote Auguries Of Innocence and painted the Divine Comedy. =P
wwth, this is someone that a somee people thought was Pell (and/or MRAL), but who denied it, and who I think probably wasn’t Pell.
So it was someone more recent than Pell. This person had a bunch of aliases but is best know for one of them.
When did Mozart get to be the deciding voice on women’s reproductive rights and gay rights?
fruitloopsie, not sure who you mean, but this person did talk a bunch about abortion, so you may be thinking of the right person.
I’m just gonna throw my hat out and say it was that Woody guy? Never was around for them–or for many trolls–but they’re pretty famous so, fuck, why not?
Paradoxical Intention
…I can’t look…away. Awww! The power of the Furrinati wins again.
David Futrelle
So many trolls to keep track or maybe my memory is just not that good.
not woody. this person likes posting weird religion-related trollery. much like the stuff he posted today.
I appreciate it, David. Just as Aquinas learned from Aristotle and the other Pagans, I do learn from the feminism of this site. And Paul Elam and Roosh also need to be educated about Catholic doctrine.
Does anyone know where my name came from?
Ooh, ooh, is it MRAL or whatever his actual nym was?
Nah, he wasn’t into religious postings. Scratch that. *squints at comments*
Wait a minute… but… Mozart is a known Freemason. I thought Freemasons and the Bilderbergers founded the FEMA in order to kill all white Anglo-Saxon Prostestants?
So basically, if you’re on a night out with a French poet, stock up on biros?
Did you get an Easyjet flight to Mesopotamia?
Either that or the Larry Norman album.
Wait, is he that AlFromBayShore guy who namedropped every author and poet he could think of (until I slapped him down with some Chaucer and it turned out he’d never actually read any poetry)?
Seconding everyone’s amazement at bringing William Blake of all people into the anti-gay marriage / abortion rights ghost conspiracy.
If so, hey, thanks for the username idea. Next time, don’t namedrop any poets you clearly know less than dick about and I won’t make the connection.
Any conspiracy broad enough to include Robert Kennedy and Thomas .merton has got something going for it.
Actually, Mozart *did* put encoded messages into his music, including some encoded Masonic messages, but they were very much simple devices for those already in the know. Easter eggs. No 21st century political messages.
Example? Quoting “credo, credo,” themes from the Latin Mass and following them immediately with Opera Buffa themes. (Translation? “Fuck all y’all in the church, *I* worship the theater!”)
Haven’t read all of the comments yet but … Mozart did what?
Sir, I’ll have you know that I as an Austrian call bullshit on that but I sure as hell will use your nice theories to amuse all of my friends. Thank you.
Sorry, my comment was not adressed to you LG, but to the guy who told us about Mozart telling the future. 😉
Holy wow. That’s some properly messed up thinking in the main article.

re: “traditional religions frowning on sex tapes” or whatever – that relies really heavily on defining traditional as “religions that frown on sex tapes /OW sex”. Hell, the Gnostic Mass (Liber XV, not to be confused with other Gnostic Masses) features sex between the celebrants.
Assholes refusing to do their jobs (e.g. Bake a wedding cake) when it’s a gay couple who commissions the service isn’t all that different from putting a “whites only” sign up at your lunch counter. As of fifty years ago that’s illegal in the US.
Following this logic, it would be similarly illegal to put a “straights only” sign up in your bakery/florist shop/pizza place etc. The only real difference here is that excluding gay people from your clientele is much more difficult than excluding black clientele; the latter could be refused service based on their skin color, but determining someone’s sexual orientation at the point of sale is much more difficult.
These people who say they refuse to do business with gay people probably already have; they just didn’t know that customer was gay.
BTW, folks:
“Natural Law” doesn’t have anything to do with the behavior of animals in nature. It’s one of those cases of philosophers using obfuscating language to conceal the fact that they’re full of shit.
Natural law is more like a primitive, theistic form of evo-psych. Look at human culture as it is at the moment, declare that to be ‘natural’, and then posit what that means about what God wants us to do (instead of what we evolved to do).
