People work to put food on the table; if they found a way to scam the system and get money without working, more power to them. Withdraw from soyciety and become ungovernable.

That's fucking retarded.

You're not suggesting people become ungovernable, you're demanding people become worthless and unimportant. There's no difference between this and being a useless consoomer. To think you're ungovernable because no one gives a shit whether you live or die, being that you have no friends and have no social influence, is laughable at best.

Men need to be the pillar of the parallel societies they build around them out of their communities, friends, and families. They need to be bastions against the institutions and toxic incentives of a poisoned society. They need to be the arbiters of morality locally. They need to be the center piece around which they can build a community. They need to be the reliable force that can help others build wealth and influence.

This idea that you should withdraw from society is Leftist subversion from the fucking 70's, back in the days of "Tune in, drop out" mentality of the fucking hippies.

Nah, you really can become ungovernable by turning to drugs, video games and not working. I live in Saskatchewan and you can see first hand how natives ruin any city they have a high enough population in. People are scared to go out in the city, the police can't get enough funding, the city itself can't get enough in taxes to make any changes they need. Natives, if high enough in pop, destroy cities.

If you get enough men leaving the system and resorting to drugs, violence, gangs, etc... It really does start to bring the whole system down. Obviously a few guys here or there makes no difference, just like a city with 2% natives is hardly noticeable but if the city is 50% natives, it's 100% fucked. If men in large enough numbers stopped working, the whole system would collapse.

We should be encouraging men to 100% boycott the system. Your idea that one should continue to slave away so they have standing in the system is trying to change a system within the confines of the system. It's like telling Alberta that maybe if Alberta voted liberal the liberals would actually start doing what Alberta wanted. Bullshit. All you're doing is making it easier for your enemies to destroy you. Resist by bringing the system to it's knees. Stop partaking in the system altogether. Abandon it.

That's exactly the point you fucking school shooter.

Your solution is fatalistic hippie bullshit to degenerate society so you can have no civilization left, and so you can kill yourself in your own black-pilled oubliette. You might as well be calling for mass suicide.

You're not bringing anything to it's knees, you're just perpetuating the degeneracy until all that's left is the authority, but in a mad max version, where no one will help you, and you have no society left to save. Your motto is "Victory in death."

No, we don't be failures so you can create the hell that you already live in with your pathological and crippling mental health issues. Real men have to actually do the right thing and build a parallel society where they don't become degenerate coomers and addicts.

You're video games and drugs aren't going to do shit when the power plants stop working and you can't feed yourself. You can only afford the strategy you suggest when you're already a worthless parasite stealing from the good will of your friends, neighbors, and families.

Yes, I am suggesting we stop feeding families and collapse civilization. That's exactly what I want.

What does 'bringing the system to its knees' look like in practice and how does it affect this hypothetical guy that sits around high playing video games?

Probably a lot like Balkanization and the Dark Ages.

How does it benefit a video game enthusiast? Well, if you love playing video games, jerking off to porn and eating hamburgers all day, I have bad news for you. It's going to suck. If you hate doing those things but are just doing them because you have no choice, once the system breaks, new opportunities for advancement that were previously bared from you will appear. The smart and strong will gain distinct advantages over the dumb and weak so if you happen to be in the former category, you may be able to utilize the situation to gain an advantage which may or may not make your life much more worthwhile in living than now.

Many of the Hippies ran off to start communes where they could live outside mainstream society in actual socialism.

Only to have them all implode, because building community infrastructure from the ground up is hard, dirty work; and almost all of them were happy to sit on their ass and let everyone else do the work.

Even ten or twenty percent of the community being freeloaders is unsustainable at the subsistence level. The people who work the hardest see the freeloaders take their stuff, and they get cross. They leave, and it all falls in a heap.

Hippy Communes were a fantastic case study of why Socialism doesn't work without totalitarian control.
