Also found on the MGTOW subreddit today:
The MGTOW subreddit is “just a bunch of men supporting one another” in roughly the same way Ku Klux Klan members burning a cross on someone’s lawn are just a bunch of white people supporting one another.

Just go your own way already!
@Scolar Visari
To Jupiter, maybe?
The coexisting MGTOW theories that women want to gold dig and that women want men to commit suicide don’t really track. How can men buy us fancy gifts and take us to fancy restaurants and then pay a life time of alimony and child support if they’re dead?
“[We’re] just a bunch of men supporting one another”
Suuuuuuuure, like the Proud Boys are “just a drinking club.” Jog on, dipshit.
“Hypergahoes” = women who won’t have sex with sorry-ass me-me-MEEEEEEE!
But sure, just go your own way already. Preferably without giving vent to your irrational bitterness beforehand.
“I’ve seen so much support, yet in society eyes that’s a big no-no for men… Support is reserved for women, men are supposed to bottle it up”
So close! But alas, no cigar …
@weirdwoodtreehugger: This is where you say “women can’t win” and those guys reply “it’s not about winning”.
@Naglfar
If you can find the money, I’m good. It’d be like pigeon island, but less Lord of the Flies and more did anyone bring oxygen?
@Scolar Visari
Nobody would bring any oxygen, of course. These types aren’t known for thinking things through. I feel like they’d end up a bit like this:
They’d be feeling like these lines:
@Bina what if they happen to be sex addicts and just happen to be assholes about it? What should one do about men like this at that point?
@Bina
I love that he was so proud of his neologism that he used it twice.
Hey, this is off topic, but does anyone know if this site is legit?
https://www.easeus.com/iphone-data-transfer/transfer-music-from-ipod-to-computer-free.html
I have an old ipod nano and want to transfer the music to my computer. This looks like a straightforward way, but I just want to make sure it’s not a virus and there’s not a better way. Anyone got opinions about the best way to get songs from an ipod into a laptop?
They get that toxic masculinity is killing them… and then blame women.
Man, I read ‘aho’ and immediately get Danganronpa flashbacks. Ah, the killer of chapter 1, we hardly knew ye…
@WWTH
Obviously their ghosts are going to be buying us gifts. Jobs in the ghost world pay really well, i hear.
@WWTH
The site and software seem to be legit, as EaseUS is a real company with good reviews on other tech sites. However, the page you linked to is about transferring from the iPod Touch. You can try it with the Nano, but I’m not certain it will work, since they’re different devices with different operating systems.
…through non-stop perseverating on women.
I don’t understand all the complaining about gold-digging, when they’re the ones insisting that relationships be transactional. Man trades resources for sex, woman trades sex for resources, and anything else is soy orbiting. Supposedly men’s craving for youth and women’s craving for wealth is immutably baked into us by millions of years of evolution, but when women follow the script, they’re being deceitful and evil.
Whereas it’s perfectly fine for dudes to go after young teenaged women, so they can exploit their youth and inexperience.
Just like Trump and the contractors he stiffs, they want their end of the bargain without giving anything in return.
@WWTH – I don’t know much about EaseUS. Their marketing and customer service seem to be a little dodgy. They cherry pick reviews, and several users have complained that the company upsells disk recovery and refuses to issue refunds under any circumstance.
I used CopyTrans to transfer my iTunes to a laptop and had a good experience with it. It will also back up your iPhone contacts, messages, and bookmarks.
At first, I read ‘hypergahoes’ as ‘Galapagos’, as in the islands. I wasn’t giving it 100% of my attention; probably any attention is too much.
@WWTH: I don’t know if that site is legit, but I’m in much the same situation with an 8 year old iPod. I replaced the battery. It worked for a week, then died again. It’s tragic that electronics costing several hundred dollars are now considered disposable.
I’m on my 4th Kindle since 2011. To be fair, I did drop one of them.
Honestly thought the spelling should have been Hypergalactic hoes.
I read “money and resources” and still think they’re talking about some RTS game. “Watch out for the females stealing your vespene gas! “
@Cheesynougats
I think the exact same thing every time they talk about “resources.”
@Allandrel, Cheesynougats
Usually I picture a tabletop game like Agricola.
Settlers of Catan. Those women just want your lumber and grain.
Time to reference Hesiod: “that thot is just after your grain?”

As I understand it, non-iPod-Touch iPods (including the Nano) can be accessed like portable hard drives, allowing you to access the music on it directly, though the file names get mangled.
Here’s a guide that shows how to copy
the files off the iPod and un-mangle the filenames. Only requires that you install iTunes; no other programs needed:

Disclaimer: I do not own an iPod, this is just what I got off Google.
I do want my fiance resources. Asshole found diamonds in minecraft before me.
@reggie, the neighbour’s cat and rare mutant:
but would’nt that be in ghost currency? Not sure what the current exchange rate is?
Oh, wait, us feeemales would’ve inherited our ill-gotten gold…er…resources.
Yeah, right, move along, mgtows, though you don’t move nearly fast enough.
Hell, a glacier moves faster–especially now that global warming’s “helping” things along.
@Moggie. Obligatory “wood for sheep” joke.
Play African Diamond. Go to Chad. Snatch the jewels.
Leave Chad’s jewels alone!
😛
@Buttercup Q. Skullpants
Indeed, and thus this only lends further credence to the theory that in reality, deep down; they want women to be sex slaves; nothing more; because they believe women exist solely to be property, chattel and resources for men; not people with their own wants, desires or autonomy.
To go without saying: it proves how abhorrent they and their ilk are.
David-
Well said! This is exactly what they are like.
Naglfar-That would be perfect! How about Io? I’m sure they would love it there.
@MissEB47
Is Io the one with all the volcanoes? If so, then it sounds like a great place for them.
Lainy, go find your own diamonds. Then shell your fiance’s base for refusing to share.
Wow, as a man, i did not know i had to suicide at 40. Do i still have the choice of the mean or is loneshadowdragon makes it for me too ?
*sigh*
@rv97 –
The comment rv97 was replying to was this one:
So not sure where ‘sex addicts’ came from? We could find some sort of, oh, I don’t know… arm chair diagnosis? For most things covered in this blog. We don’t, because excusing shitty behaviour with medical bullshit absolves people from their own responsibilities, and also throws people with these medical problems under the bus.
So no, I am not willing to entertain that this person *might* be a sex addict, nor am I willing to entertain any other excuse.
This person is a jerk. Their opinions are the opinions of a jerk, their actions are that of a jerk, and this original post is the post of a jerk.
What should we do with men like this? I mean, if you have the spoons to point out ways to actually better themselves, maybe you could do that? I, currently, am just going to sigh at how close they were. I don’t have the energy to go and argue with them.
I mean, I guess I am arguing with you, not that you are like the OP, just that you have some not great opinons… So this is what I do. Apparently.
@cheesynougats
Mission failed. We’ll get em next time.
