I realize that most of you are probably feeling as Rooshed-out as I am, and would like to move on to posts with a very low percentage of Roosh content, if any at all.
But I feel I would be remiss not to bring to your attention a post by our old friend, the urban cowboy/white nationalist (on paper) Davis M.J. Aurini, published on Roosh’s Return of Kings site on Friday. Entitled “Why International Meetup Day Was Cancelled,” it is perhaps the dumbest thing anyone has yet or will ever write on the subject.
Mr. Aurini starts off by positing the existence of a vast, Australia-wide media conspiracy against his buddy Roosh, a conspiracy showing the “extreme cunning” of the enemies of all that is good and true:
During Gamgergate [sic] it was revealed that the gaming press were coordinating behind the scenes, deciding which topics would be discussed and promoted, and which ones would be censored and dropped into the memory hole. Given that on February 2nd six nearly identical articles were published throughout the Australian press within hours of one another, all describing Return of Kings as a “Rape Group,” it is a near certainty that the Australian press is similarly controlled by collusion between the reporters on secret message boards.
Emphasis mine.
His proof of this conspiracy is a blurry image showing that a number of Australian papers RAN ARTICLES ABOUT ROOSH WITH IDENTICAL TITLES on the same day.
Which might be evidence of a vast conspiracy amongst Australian journalists except for the fact that all of the newspapers in question are owned by the same media conglomerate and regularly run the exact same articles as one another, much in the way that newspapers across the US regularly run identical stories by the Associated Press.
Indeed, if you look carefully at the blurry proof Aurini offers as proof of conspiracy, you’ll see that some of the papers in question also ran identical articles on what Myers and David Jones — apparently big Australian department store chains? — are planning to do to usher in a new fashion season.
I’m pretty sure that even the most cunning SJWs could not dream up a conspiracy so deliciously eeeevil that it would require not only media manipulation of news about Roosh but also unanimity of coverage on Australian department store fashion as well.
Don’t anyone mention this to Aurini, but I have proof that NEARLY IDENTICAL “WIZARD OF ID” COMICS are running today in newspapers around the world! COLLUSION AT ITS MOST NEFARIOUS!!!
Aurini then offers this, well, unique explanation of the behavior of Roosh’s enemies, which for some reason involves flocks of lizard people.
The behaviour we’ve witnessed over the past week is perfectly explained by flocks of narcissists, organized online, exercising vicious cunning with a human’s capacity for abstract thought. They are the metaphorical lizard people, dressed in skin suits, unreasonable and unrepentant.
Lizard people, you say?
Their goal is pandemonium. So long as it is chaotic, degraded, cheap, infectious, and ugly, they will endorse it, and they will use any tactic to achieve it: violence, lies, false philosophies, and pretend victimhood. They will be crying and vulnerable one moment, and coldly murderous the next. They are vicious, they are legion, and they’re organized as only animals who have known sin could possibly be.
We see you.
So apparently Aurini has discovered peyote?
Aurini continues bumbling his way through more failed metaphors, at one point declaring that
Through introspection we will hear the voice of our conductor, and learn what song it is that we are meant to sing.
After saying a whole lot of nothing, he winds up the piece with a warning for all of us lizard people who’ve been so darn mean to poor old Roosh.
A final word for all of those who attacked us, slandered us, and threatened us; we, the men who would defend you against those who would enslave and exploit you; we who fight, not for ourselves, but for the future.
Alas, Aurini’s “final word” is actually several hundred.
We will remember who you are, and we are a larger chorus than you know.
That ex-boyfriend who stole your heart? One of us. That charming married man at your office, with the beautiful wife? One of us. That wise mentor who helped you more than you’ll than you’ll ever know? One of us.
Huh. I rather doubt that the lesbian cultural history professor I had as an advisor in grad school — if anyone was ever my mentor, it was probably her — reads Return of Kings.
The battle for civilization will be neither quick nor easy. We will win, but not without great struggle and many casualties amongst those who refused to pick a side. So remember something: when you or your womenfolk are being viciously assaulted and raped by third world savages whom you defended while decrying us—or by some gestapo thug, whom you empowered to oppress us, their breath rancid with garlic and rotting teeth—
That is the future you chose by standing against men of virtue.
Yep, another far-right fantasy of a righteous apocalypse that will put all of us SJWs in their place. I’m just a little surprised to see Aurini — a white nationalist Holocaust denier who has more than a few kind things to say about Hitler — depicting the Gestapo as the bad guys.
I almost want to create a twitter account just so I can tell him to eat a dick – his own. It’s not cannibalism if it’s yours? /s/
Someone should tell him that those baths are probably why his skin feels scaly. He should use lotion. And then go walk on all the legos.
Damn feminists . . . . wanting to enslave and exploit us with things like equality and a culture free of rape!
And I’m adding this just for fun:
This marks the birth of the Tin Foil Fedora.
I read that in the voice of Mel Gibson in Braveheart. Especially funny and fitting given Gibson’s propensity to have misogynistic and anti-Semitic meltdowns and then blame it on everyone else except himself when called out.
If I’m understanding PUA Lavey correctly, rape is logical, natural, and good when white men do it and savage and icky when brown and black do it?
If this is what “men of virtue” are getting up to, sign me up for Team Sinful Animals.
Sorry. For some reason I thought “nutters” wasn’t an ableist slur. I’ll stick with “crackpot” or “crank” from now on.
Yeah, tell me about it.
I’m on turn 277 and the best I have in terms of cultural influence is “exotic” over the Inca. I’ve won one petty war with the Romans, but it’s an island map so wars are pretty rare and domination victory isn’t going to come soon. I did go sea-power and economic power pretty hard, so I’ve got most of the city states with me, which means a lot of delegates to the world congress, but I’m a long way from Information Age technologies (and I’m one of the two civs most technologically advanced), so I’m not even allowed to compete for world leader/diplomatic victory yet.
OTOH, I do think that my production of Gold and Hammers and Science all point to inevitable victory, but even that doesn’t mean it was easy to get to this point…just easier from here to the end of game.
…or was (a)urini talking about something else?
Don’t worry, Aurini! Senpai must notice you this time!
I just recently became aware of this Roosh individual and his “opinions” on rape. One thing that is “funny” to me is that these MRA creatures, who looove to talk about how women never take responsibility, and want to be treated like children, etc, seem to have no problem selling themselves as wild animals with no self-control. It’s NOT A MAN’S FAULT, you see, if a man doesn’t accept “no” once aroused, because he CANNOT CONTROL HIMSELF, mkay??! WOMEN should always be on guard of MEN because being alone with a man means she’s exposing herself to RAPE because NATURE YA’LL!!!!”.
The lack of self-awareness is just so baffling to me. So a woman should have responsibility over her safety (what generally applies to everyone), but a man should bear no responsibility for forcing himself sexually against a woman?!?!
A “crank” is someone who comes up with ridiculous theories due to an ignorance of the background knowledge needed to understand the topic and naivete (or a grossly inflated sense of self-importance). Probably a more accurate term because most people with weird ideas don’t have a psychological disability.
What Aurini thinks he sounds like:

What he actually sounds like:
@Bernardo Soares
Thank you! 🙂
Yeah, I’m gonna guess Aurini isn’t super happy about the Jews either. To be fair, he seems to hate everybody except for himself and the PUAs he looks up to.
@Crip Dyke:
At least your game of Civ hasn’t stalemated into 2,000 years of nuclear war.
David Futrelle,
If our Lizard overlords oppose Roosh, they can’t be all bad. Maybe David Icke should stop complaining about them now. 😉

Actually it turns out that Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp Australia is, by far, the largest newspaper publisher in that country. Fairfax Media is the second largest.
Also, newspapers with huge editorial staffs are somehow “controlled by collusion between the reporters on secret message boards”? I guess Professor Skull doesn’t know what editors do in any medium.
I played Civilization: Beyond Earth for a while, but concluded that Civilizaton 5 is just a better game. That’s not totally surprising, though, because Civ 5 got 2 expansions that radically improved it. Still, I like Civ 5’s focus on big play, while BE feels focused on grinding out bland incremental advantage.
Is it worth picking up Rising Tide, or am I still going to be happier with Brave New World?
This is the inspirational speech for guys who are supposed to be free thinkers?
I mean, Napoleon was the freakin’ Emperor and even he said “every french soldier carries a marshal’s baton in his pack”.
What’s this shit again?
“Through introspection we will know whom we need to follow, and which words we need to repeat”
Aurini, you are doing it so wrong it’s not even funny anymore!
Men of virtue; misogynistic, homophobic, bigots and racist who oppose personal liberty and democracy, who froth with hatred against everyone and everything that won’t be ordered like they want it to be.
I’m… thinking I’ll stick to supporting virtue-less slubberdegullions like myself, then, thank you very much. Less chance I’ll end up partaking in genocide and slavery, that way.
In other words: All hail our (metaphorical?) lizard overlords. May we enjoy the freedom they bring us, forever more!
@Crip
I hope you’re playing as Elizabeth. I like to play a nice peaceful game while I beeline all the naval techs, then warmonger once I can build ship-of-the line.
I also like to imagine the leaders of other Civs start running around with their arms flailing while shouting “the English are coming, flee!”
That sound you’re hearing isn’t a rising chorus of agreement, it’s the echo of your own voice back through the emptiness within you.
@ Orion: I think it’s better to go with Brave New World. I was very disappointed by Civ: BE (yeah, I had hope for a new Alpha Centauri. My fault), and from what I hear, Rising Tide didn’t have the same effect as the Civ V expansions. If you want something more intricate, with better AI than Civ V, have you tried its predecessor, Civ IV?
@Luz
hej, can I ask you something totally OT? And I don’t want to assume anything just because you’re Argentinian, but the thing is this: Hector Oesterheld’s Eternauta was just published in German as a complete edition, and I’m thinking about picking it up. I liked some other stuff by him (Mort Cinder, mostly), but it’s really expensive. Do you know it by any chance and if so, can you recommend?
Well, despite News Corp’s dominance, all five of the newspapers listed in the blurry conspiracy pic are Fairfax papers.
I like the “heads I win, tails you lose” nature of his piece. When he thought they were indenpendent papers, it was “OMG collusion! Secret message boards!” (pretty slapdash of him not to notice the identical bylines right out in the open). When he realised they were sister papers (even that term is misandry), it was “OMG powerful press barons controlling the media!”
Off topic, but what is the origin of the slur, “nutters?” Is it an implication that the person is nuts? Or is it equivalent to wanker, as in someone who nutts all over the place, making a disgusting mess nobody wants to deal with?
@Orion
I found BE to be “souless” compared to Civ5. It just doesn’t resonate the feeling that you’re trying to build a great civilisation. Rising Tide adds a new mechanic where you can build floating cities on water, which is cool, but until they fix the AI I felt that the expansion didn’t improve the game by much.
I really hope the successor to Civ5 is in the works.
I haven’t seen anyone mention this yet, so I would just like to remind you all that Roosh totally got laid in Norway.
