Feminism, Overreach, and How We Got Here

For me this is another example of, “One side pushed to hard, and now the pendulum is swinging back the other way.”

Feminists have gone so far to emasculate men, that they are now seen [by men] as an existential threat.

Feminism has become embedded into nearly all parts of American culture.

The Feminization of Story Telling

Stories, at least traditionally, were always a means of learning. People told stories over generations, because it was how people passed knowledge from one generation to the next.

These stories often involved women, who by no fault of their own, got themselves into bad situations. It was at this point that a man would come to save her. A knight, or someone virtuous would rescue her (the idea being -- it is virtuous to save women) and then everything would work out in the end.

This process has been hijacked by those who wish to portray a new kind of story. Not one where women need to be protected -- but one where the women do the protecting.

This inversion is instinctively rejected by males. Well, by most males. See, this is not the way that things work in real life. These kinds of ideals can’t be unwound -- because they’re not social constructs -- they are the way that humans (on a civilizational scale) have survived for as long as we can tell.

Feminists have taken it upon themselves to change the perception of reality. Men aren’t supposed to protect women, in fact most men are portrayed in stories today as being idiots. Many people have written about this, Eric Rogers is one that comes to mind.

That’s precisely what’s been done, over several decades, to the cultural image of the virtuous man, to the image of a hero. This wasn’t aesthetic drift. It wasn’t just a change in taste or storytelling. It was a systematic and deliberate suppression of something that would otherwise tell the truth. We didn’t merely lose the image of an admirable man from our media, it was actively replaced with a distortion designed to make the original unrecognizable.

As with any movement, it grew subtly over time. The first signs were hard to pick up on, but during the ‘80s and ‘90s, the dominant image of the man in American popular culture became the bumbling husband: Homer Simpson, Ray Barone, Al Bundy. Men who might not have been villains, but they lacked almost any redeemable qualities. Importantly, these characters were seen as relatable, “normal guys.” Heroes were still on the big screen, like Kurt Russel and Mel Gibson, but the hero was starting to be seen as a fantasy, while the slob was the truth.

The idea is for the male figure in Western media is to be a loser, and not worthy of the woman. This serves many purposes, but here are two that immediately come to mind.

1. It keeps the male/female divide intact. It does this by keeping men on the defensive (as they are conceptualized as fools and incompetent). Not a good starting point.

2. Women are more likely to see foreign men as competent. This is because most foreign films don’t portray men as fools. Netflix is a prime example of this. If you’ve ever watched any of the foreign stories that are dubbed in English, the men are portrayed as regular men. They are not portrayed as fools.

This is ironic, because the same people who are pushing the “Western Men Are Idiots” narrative -- are the same people inviting violent third world men into Western countries. And we all know where that leads. 🙄

Men Are Terrible And They Will Hurt You

As with most ideologies, nearly everything “feminist” operates from a simple binary baseline.

Feminists filter the actions of men -- through a filter resembling this: Men are angry, spiteful, power hungry, and aggressive -- at all times. In fact, when men are not being aggressive, they’re scheming, there must be a game afoot. Things are never as they seem, don’t trust your senses.

Feminism does not account for gray areas. It can’t, because that might allow for honest observations. You can’t have honest observations -- of a binary enemy. They’re bad -- that’s it -- end of discussion.

Feminism makes me think of a role-reversed version of the rap song "Bitches Ain't Shit." Feminism operates on that level of complexity.

Jenn And The Unveiling of Crazy

Around 10 years back, I still had a personal Facebook account that I would look at every once in a while when I was bored. This was right around the time when Trump was elected the first time.

There were a few people on there that I would talk to from time to time. People I went to high school with, I graduated in 1998, so it was 18 years prior that I was in school with any of those people, or people that I used to work with.

I was scrolling through my feed when I saw a message from a girl I went to high school with. In that 18-year span she had become a teacher.

She posted something to the effect of, “Now that Trump has been elected, I’m worried that rapes are going to increase all over the country!” I thought that she was joking. NO -- she was 100% serious!

I went to her Facebook page and poked around, there was all this bizarre leftist stuff. There was a picture of her classroom door, covered in a giant piece of paper that said, “We love our Brown kids, Black kids, Asian kids…” Every ethnic group you could think of, but there as no mention of White kids (I wonder how those kids felt in her class). She was a full-on Social Justice Warrior!

She posted something else to do with men raping women, because of Trump. I mentioned to her, “You do understand that everyone you knew the day before -- is still the same person today. Nothing changed overnight because Trump was elected. There was no switch that flipped to make people act differently.”

It didn’t matter, she already blocked me. She blocked me -- for pointing out the obvious.

This took me completely by surprise as she was one of the people in school who “bucked the system.” I never would have imagined that she would have been pulled in by leftist ideology. But then, she was still single. There was no man in the picture to guide her, as a result, she strayed into the wilderness, and was targeted by feminists.

She was an attractive woman, and feminists seek attractive women when they can. They know that women who are attractive have much more sway with men (and generally hold a higher social status) and so they are targeted relentlessly, because of their persuasive abilities.

On Facebook, many other people were writing insane nonsense as well. All of Facebook seemed awash with people who were not in control of their emotions, and seemed generally crazy.

None of those people were worth engaging with in discussion because they were mental basket cases, who checked under their bed at night to make sure Trump wasn’t hiding under there.

All I could think was, “These are the people they have teaching kids? Seriously?!”

Feminists Are Gatekeepers

Feminists have also become embedded into the gateways (entry points) by which most men attempt to “make something of themselves” -- the job market.

First men have to beat the “Algorithm Game,” then they often have to woo the feminist HR interviewers.

I’ll explain.

Men, especially young men are tired of dealing with gatekeepers. Everyone is tired of dealing with people who hate them -- generally -- and those same people [who hate you] being the entryway to a career.

It reminds me of building your financial credit. You can’t get a credit card (with a decent credit rate) because you’ve never had a credit card before. But you can’t really build your credit without a credit card. 🤔 So you get screwed over early -- when you’re trying to build something -- so that later when credit is less important, you can “potentially” get a better interest rate? Credit in general is a scam, but that’s a whole different topic.

The subject of feminism is interesting to me, not because I’ve personally had to deal with it so much, but because I’ve watched other people have to deal with it. And it is complete BS, there’s no real navigable path for young men today. It all depends on your available resources, and whether or not your family will, or can, help you or not.

I’m a rather attractive guy, so the harpies treat me differently than less attractive guys. I know how to flirt in a non-threatening way -- and this makes a huge difference! Women like to be the center of attention (at all times) even in that attention is not destined to go anywhere (and they know that). I’m sure you’ve heard, “It’s nice to be wanted” before.

You could be a less attractive man, and know how to talk to people, and go far.

If you’re less attractive and spiteful, or non-positive in your general demeanor (or otherwise have low self esteem) -- then you’re not getting hired.

It’s almost like the women are hiring men -- based on whether or not they would date them.

I know I’ll be attacked on this -- but it’s 100% true! And all you ladies out there know it. 😉👉

Men do the same thing!

Why do so many accomplished men have secretaries that are attractive? Because it’s a status symbol. Nobody has to explain “why” they hired her, “Just look at her! Would you turn her away?!”

The same thing is happening to men now. The entry points for men have swapped. Instead of men hiring competent men, there’s women hiring men based on their “likability” not merit.

Women don’t care about merit. They care if they find you attractive as a possible mate, why you might up their social status. Biology just works that way.

That’s why so many dating/hiring websites are always about “confidence” and “showing that you can handle the situation.” Not by proven facts -- but by the way that you come off in a short conversation.

That’s not hiring -- that’s speed dating!

Women Don’t Need Men, It’s Men Who Need The Women

Feminists have used this phrase for around 40 years.

‘Behind every great man there’s a great woman’ [it] was adopted as a slogan for the 1960/70s feminist movement, first having been used in the 1940s.

“Behind every great man there’s a great woman.” Which is very convenient for feminists.

See, it was never the men, it was really the women -- who were managing the men -- which allowed Great Men to become great.

You know, people like Genghis Khan. Who was most definitely “lead from behind” by all of the thousands of women he slept with.

Historical estimates suggest Genghis Khan slept with thousands of women, with some records indicating a harem of 2,000 to 3,000 concubines. This prolific reproductive history is backed by genetic studies showing that approximately 1 in 200 men today are his direct descendants. To understand how these numbers are possible, we must first analyze the genetic evidence that confirms his massive biological footprint.

There are more men of renown who were never married, or widowed before they reached their apex in society.

? Isaac Newton
? Nikola Tesla
? Henry David Thoreau
? Leonardo Da Vinci
? Thomas Jefferson (had been widowed for 19 years when he was elected as the third President).

It was not women who made these men great; however, it was the individual achievements of these men that made them great.

One can argue whether their achievements are “great” or not, but one cannot argue that they were lead by women because they simply were not. Who might have been the woman that recommended that Genghis Khan sleep with thousands of women?

Men don’t seek a name for themselves -- because a woman suggests it. Men seek greatness because these things are inherent.

Someone born into royalty doesn’t require a woman to tell them that they need to keep things going. It becomes 100% obvious at a young age. Either you keep the status quo -- or you likely get slimmed. Not to mention, most of the people surrounding young royalty -- are not relatives -- and often times not the mother of the child. That’s just the way things were.

The mother was often required for other formal viewings, and could not “be there” for her child.

None of that really matters though, because for feminism to “work” the woman needs to be the primary source of influence -- always. Not some male who might possibly poison the mind of another male, providing an alternate point of view.

You know what else doesn’t allow any alternate point of view? A CULT. Yes an actual cult. Which is what feminism really is.

Let me break it down my own way.

From personal experience, a cult is anything that says, “Whatever you thought you knew is 100% wrong.” That’s the first giveaway. Not that people somewhere along the way, might have been “mistaken” -- no, they are “wrong” -- and they are knowingly “wrong” -- because they are trying to deceive you.

Similarly, cults often call on their followers to be "true believers" who sacrifice themselves for the cause. Feminism does this as well -- except for those at the top.

Feminism has all the classic marks of a cult. But it’s a cult that’s been mainstreamed by a large extent of society.

So, what do we do now?
