It’s no big secret that many doomsday preppers yearn for the apocalypse — if for no other reason than the opportunities it will provide them to say “I told you so” to all those who doubted their paranoid fantasies. And to possibly shoot some of these unprepared scoffers when they come begging for food.
Nowhere is this more obvious than amongst those apocalypse-fantasizers who’ve convinced themselves that it will be feminism, rather than volcanic eruptions or nuclear war or Donald Trump, that will bring about the end of the world.
On the Men Going Their Own way subreddit, the regulars are talking apocalypse, as modern misogynists are wont to do. And it is as revealing as these exercises always are.
A fellow called BagOfBrokenBits dreams of a not-very-distant future in which uppity ladies “will do whatever they are told.”
The future as I see it, is that as society collapses around us (5-15 years?) most women outside of a tightly controlled patriarchal group simply will not survive, because nobody will put up with their sh*t long enough to feed them. When resources are scarce they will not be able to defend what they have and most lack the health, strength and abilities to obtain or build what they need. There will be no feminism, there will be patriarchy. Men will work together as they always have, in challenging and horrific conditions. Women will do whatever they are told because conditions will be too harsh to tolerate dissent.
And Mr. Bag will be one of those doing the telling, because of all the toiletries he is hoarding:
I am a Prepper. I currently have stores of food, toiletries etc for five years with tools, seeds etc to extend that.
He’s apparently filling his doomsday bunker with as many canned goods as he can get his hands on:
It has been noted that in past shortages due to wars an afternoon with a woman can be had for a tin of … anything really.
You know what I mean, you know what I mean? Nudge nudge say no more!
The pros and cons of the apocalypse:
Cons:
- Death of most of the human race
- Contamination of water sources with dead bodies
- No medical care beyond basic first aid
- Return to stone age civilization
Pros:
- Women will have sex with you for a can of beans
AOF_Semiramis suggests moving to New Zealand. And he has some interesting thoughts about Pokemon GO.
Go complete ghost in New Zealand or the likes.Heck even in the US with private as fuck properties.Grow your own food,have stable ways to get water and raise animals a la farm.Fish too if your near a lake.Assuming your far away enough,lake is isolated enough,your too far from idiot humans and any large concentration of them,then nukes won’t land on your spot too since it would be a waste of resources.(Its why the CIA funded Pokemon GO. So the brainless droves would fill the map for them.Obviusly there are still holes.)
Surviving the apocalypse is so easy that even a kid could do it!
Also..a 15 year old discovered an ancient city due to studying the stars in Central America.So you can bet that there are other places in the world where you can live safely.
Make sure to pack popcorn, for all the gloating you’ll be doing.
I know its f*cked up,but nothing you can do to stop it. You can only save yourself at most.So just chill,get some popcorn,and just accept the f*cking up.
timoppenheimer, meanwhile, doesn’t seem to be doing any prepping beyond living as selfishly as he can:
WWIII is coming, and I am horrified too, OP.
My plan is to enjoy my life. They already took my foreskin; fuck society, I’m living my life for me.
Talkytalktalk is evidently a fan of Alex Jones:
This is the great culling of the human population. The eugenics population reduction freaks are going to kill billions and out the rest under the yoke of totalitarianism. It takes a woman to pick the runts and dispose of them.
But which woman? WHICH WOMAN!?
I need to know now so I can mangina my way into her good graces before the culling.
Tentatively related Grunkle Stan I found while looking for gifs
That is all.
Huh. Lord of the Flies told me that guys in challenging and horrific conditions would descend into dissent and kill each other off. And isn’t society’s common consensus about gendered natures, as generalizing as it is, that men thrive in competition and women in cooperation?
It wasn’t too long ago when we had a post on the exact same subject, and a big chunk of the comments thread was about how we would work together and form a mammoth community.
Reminds me of what they said about the Jews. Jews as a faceless enemy could be communist, capitalist or anything else you want them to be.
Same with women. As the faceless other they are able to conquer and rule male society and yet be unable to open a pickle jar. Both conquered and conquering simultaneously.
You don’t need an apocalypse to defeat Schrodinger’s Straw Woman. Alternatively, no apocalypse will defeat her.
Did any of you read that article in TIME about internet trolls? I think you’d enjoy it, David
@ BritterSweet, I was just thinking about that comment thread – it was AWESOME.
Also, “descend into dissent” – nice 😀
@The Lurker
Currently giving it a read, I don’t see a parapraph of Milo’s scholarship being a scam. Also I’m a bit annoyed that he keeps using trolling as a catch all term for jokes, race/gender/sexual discrimination, and threats of violence. At least he points out that this hate culture is directly inibiting minority groups and empowering white supremecy groups by basically dogpiling them into silence.
Sedentary Reactionary reminds me of another troll, but I’m trying to remember which. Maybe Walter when he was talking about women instead of his bone-pressed penis society?
Edit: See page one of this thread if you’re wondering who Sedentary Reactionary is.
Another tedious teal deer.
*sadistic grin*
I’m gonna get my cats-taking-down-toddlers gifs ready.
I’ve read enough of Hans-Hermann Hoppe’s oeuvres to marvel at how totalitarian a “libertarian” can get. Anyone else?
Right? I’m sure that for those trying to lose weight, his former twit-feed (does it still exist?) is an effective appetite suppressant. Unfortunately, that’s because it’s so repugnant that no one wants to touch it.
Ironically for him, I’ve actually lost several pounds since taking up HAES and following body-positive Instagrammers. So his idea that body-positivity encourages fattitude, whereas trolling and body-shaming is somehow “virtuous” because it’ll make all the fatty-fat-fatties “motivated” to lose weight, is complete horse hockey. More self-acceptance = less stress eating = better health overall + actual, effortless-feeling weight loss.
And if he wants to know what’s truly revolting, he should look in the mirror. His hair looks like skunk roadkill lately. It certainly gave me a hard time keeping my breakfast down this morning…
Well, I’m crushed.
We have a new Godwin’s law!
Whoa, those damn slutty societies: breedin’ and givin’ birth everywhere :0
Who is he, and why should we even care?
Also, your teal deer is bullshit.
I still don’t understand how the collapse of society would be good for men, given that I’m pretty sure the random middle class dude who works in a cubicle wouldn’t fare much better than his female colleague. But it’s telling how they like the idea of a modicum of power over their fellow humans than human rights and, like, a steady supply food.
@kupo
Oh that person, I completely missed that, don’t know how. Though I find it funny how he references Hans-Herman Hoppe:
http://www.demos.org/blog/9/11/13/hans-hermann-hoppe-libertarian-extraordinaire
Turns out typing “piece of shit” next to a person’s name tends to give you alot of material to work with, a libertarian who decides to use the government to control the masses, minorities, wants to kill the poor, empower the rich, kill off dissenters/segregate others as this is what private tyranny works. Since I am not a qt3.14 submissive Japanese barely legal, I don’t see me being treated quite well under guys like him.
I’m not sure how I feel about the libertarians denouncing him so quickly, and then everyone points out how blatant their lies and Pr are. Actually I do feel something, happy.
I’ll try to pick apart his points, it gives me something to do:
1.) So he uses a statement without a citation, for both of his points. Now on his part with slut shaming by saying that TAXES ARE EVUL AND THE POOR ARE SINNERS BEFORE CALVINIST GOD:
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/04/110401142852.htm
So great his statements against the poor can’t be validated as this is common amongst all echelons of society. Blah blah blah Monarchy is so great, women voting is the downfall of civilization. That’s strange because since 1920 to now, somehow despite a woman’s vote being key to bringing down western civilization, somehow the US still around, for 96 years in fact. So women’s rights are the dusk of mankind, since it’s taking almost a full century this must be one very slow acting poison.
2.)Calling those who corrupted the US with Citizens United, are trying to wrest even more control of governments with the TPP, avoid pretty much all taxes, and the rich avoid paying trillions in taxes, I don’t care if your personal fave person is in there, playing is no excuse while also gambling away our futures for risky short term gain because no consequences for their actions.
http://www.globalresearch.ca/trillions-stashed-in-offshore-tax-havens/32485
Yes they are the ones who uphold society, like how the top 50 richest people have 200 times the wealth of the average world citizen, they must work super duper overtime.
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/jan/18/richest-62-billionaires-wealthy-half-world-population-combined
Methinks this guy wishes himself a blue-blood instead of another peasant, Gambler’s Fallacy, it happens to us all. Even more so he worships the feet of old money and calls it effort, like if he does it enough they’ll open the gates of high society and riches beyond his wildest dreams.
3.) Again another non cited assertion, anti immigration like every single time these conservatives flare their blatant racist views until they need to cuddle up with these minority groups, so then they can discriminate against the next FOTM scapegoat. Somehow he believes that immigration will cause the US to fracture, despite this happening every few decades, and oh look every time we become more progressive towards a future where the powerless don’t have to stay powerless against those who have more. Somehow we don’t have structural collapse? How can this be?
@Sedentary Reaction
Our “progress” has you beaten time and time again. You couldn’t keep people as slaves, you couldn’t keep Jim Crow, you couldn’t prevent women’s rights, you couldn’t prevent Unions from existing, you couldn’t prevent immigration multiple times and somehow society hasn’t fallen x years ago, you couldn’t keep lgbt groups from marrying, you couldn’t uphold your bathroom bills, you couldn’t prevent PP from still existing and allowing safe sex to thrive, you couldn’t get people to turn my country into an ashen wasteland because “muh domino effect”. Now that I think about it, you and your groups in all its mutations over the decades don’t have a good track record of keeping people from trying and succeeding towards the goal of “treating people the way you want to be treated.”
Sometimes I wonder if its even worth typing up these kinds of posts, either they are drive by posts or don’t even bother to even glance.
@ Carayak
Right-libertarians are functionally indistinguishable from fascists. This has always been true. Look at the relationship between the Chicago Boys and Pinochet, for instance.
@Bina
A shill for the Mises Institute, which is a right wing propaganda mill. As such, he wouldn’t know facts or reason if they challenged him to a Mensur
Men never buy things they don’t need. Like PUA manuals or sports cars. Nope. Never happens.
I like how the troll’s list of things women are doing to destroy civilization all boil down to “women are sleeping with men who aren’t me!”
I still fail to see how the apocalypse is going to help these guys get laid more.
@wwth
’cause you see they’ll do all those things, just like in muh post apocalyptic novella
Yup.
Same with women. As the faceless other they are able to conquer and rule male society and yet be unable to open a pickle jar.
Pickle jars remain a challenge in our conquest of all. Personally, I like hitting the rim of the lid with a butter knife, but my mom always just hands them to my dad and says ‘this is why the good Lord, in Her infinite wisdom, created men’.
I’m reminded of the moment in “Red vs. Blue” when Tex, who all the guys are terrified of, has to send one of them to get her bomb because she can’t lift it.
They were only recently let through moderation. I only noticed it because a couple of the posts I knew I’d seen on page 1 shifted to page 2.
Galileo: It moves because these modern Renaissance women who read Greek and lie about rape follow their essential nature to sleep with multiple Turkish and Abyssinian alphas who abandon them, and then use humanist fascism to make the Papal States pay for their many children.
Urban VIII: How does this fucking guy keep getting into my throne room, anyway? How? Someone please take him out of here, thank you.
I’m watching The Astronaut’s Wife and it’s so much creepier nowadays given the abuse allegations against Johnny Depp. The movie is very clearly a domestic violence allegory.
Sorry for the off topic, but the troll is pretty ho-hum, so why not?
@Podkayne Lives
I just shed a single manly tear of laughter thanks to you.
@Podkayne
Well played.
‘those who don’t contribute society’
This kind of thing really upsets me. Let’s see, who actually contributes to society?
