Nevermind not designed for them, more than half of it is actively hostile towards them. Certain women look for a guy in therapy not because he's doing something to better himself, but because it means someone has already done part of the work of brainwashing him into thinking he's always the problem and that giving up more of his time and money to someone else is always the solution.

Most women say they hate going to guys with a problem and they try to help generate solutions instead of just commiserate with them.

Most women also say they love taking their problems to a therapist.

Solutions are not what they're peddling.

Just an hour a week where their partner had to actually act like a partner instead of a parasite extracting maximal resources would help a lot of guys I see in relationships.

Don't worry, that's only 55% of what terminally online survey takers want the surveyor to think. You can probably safely quarter that for translating to actual actions by real world people.

But yes, no man should waste an ounce of his breath on such ruined bloodsuckers except to publicly berate them for being an ugly tick in the armpit of productive society.

This is why feminism took over everything public facing. Every woman, no matter how garbage her character or shitty the circumstances, can count on dozens of other women around her to back her up over a man in the same position.

I would act more sympathetic for a guy in the same situation too, not that I would particularly respect him, but because it's the rules of the game and I'm not a shitty primadonna teammate bitching that the rest of the team aren't meeting my standards and walking off the field.

Tribalism works, evolutionarily it stood the test of time and I'm sick of being on teams where no-one wants to fucking win.

Not that it's not distressing to get your ass kicked by invaders. But that the thing that seems to have ruined her ability to perform her duties is her worrying how a busted nose might affect her looks is some peak woman momenting.

If we're going pure game theory here, and you assume the lower fertility rate is intrinsic to women's lib style societies, the only way they can compete and survive is to make survival rates inversely disproportionate for the countries with lower female education and higher fertility rates. Aka, you must constantly cull the savages to claim land and resources for your enlightened nation.

Who thinks anyone can sell hardcore ultra-imperialism to feminists before they choose oblivion?

Given the trend of countries looking like they're getting ready to lock things down in the near future, this would seem like a quick path towards discrediting his connection to the big man in charge.

Also true. I guess if you include the individual's room selections I suppose being the smartest in the room becomes as much a proxy for how much you interact with the general public Vs insulated groups of your peers, as it does for intelligence.

There's been genetic studies that show Brahmin Indians (aka elites and rulers) share much more genetic code with ancient East Asian and European ancestors than indigenous Indian ancestors. Essentially they were foreigners who came in and took over the region with their super powers of not being retarded, who then set up a strict no-interbreeding system with the castes and continued to rule the area for millennia. By then enough cumulative rule breakers for the inter breeding meant that they ended up with a significant degree of native Indian genetics, then the British came in and supplanted them with the super power of once again being marginally less retarded.

I mean I don't know about you but even excluding the empty ones, the median room I walk into doesn't have 50+ people milling about in it.

I think anything above 90th percentile would probably still qualify as being the smartest in the room more often than not. The real question is do we tend to rate that metric too high?

I mean probably, but in its absence gaming is getting fucked by VC funded and publicly traded behemoths anyway. The only thing that has seemingly kept it from already descending into a much worse hellscape of locked down software, after-purchase terms changes and publisher interference has been a single private citizen controlling the largest private distributor being steadfast about remaining in open competition with them rather than joining the anti-consumerist coalition and locking down the market entirely.

So will it fuck something up? Probably. Will it make things worse than they would have been without it? I seriously doubt it.

Perfect is the enemy of good as they say. And this campaign is good enough, it'll probably do more good than harm and there's way worse things happening to get all doom and gloom about.

Plus the Pascal fangirls have had it happen to them twice now with their fanfic dream chars, GoT being the first. They were never the most stable in the first place, but after getting their wet dreams crushed twice now they're about ready to snap.

Nah, bronies should get as much heat as it takes to finally feel enough shame to stop telling people on the internet they're bronies.

Why wait for the uprising, they say it's better to start spaying as soon as possible to prevent unwanted accidents.

Which fits with the original claim I guess, that he only heard about him because of the backlash. Which is why you always need to do a little due diligence to make sure it's not just another enemy, before joining any pushback.

Like literally just scrolling their social media for 30 secs before weighing in would save pundits so many embarassments.

You're such a lying cunt, I'm not buying the retard act anymore, this is looking more like "self"-sabotage.

Hijab is literally just the Arabic word for barrier/covering.

She didn't say "a hijab" meaning the noun for a type of clothing. She said just said hijab, as in the very concept of covering, specifically in the context of women. That's how they talk, and if you can't keep up you're just going to flounder and make false statements.

So yes, she actually is claiming they're both coverings, but you got so stuck on "foreign word bad!" that you're willing to deny historical truth to deny any similarities rather than focusing on the real cultural incompatibilities. Like being rapey pedophile warmongers. A belief in religious modesty is the benign sugar coating for the poison underneath, and you're just drawing more attention to the sugar.

What is that retarded reductionism supposed to solve? No a modern nun's habit is not the same as a hijab and a habit is not the same as a 12th century wimple either l, so I don't know why you keep trying to change the subject like that.

A Benz is also not the same as a Ford, but you'd have to be dumb not to see they came from the same schools of thought and cross pollination of ideas. And actually retarded to claim they're not both still cars.

The wimple is basically just a renamed 12th century hijab, the Europeans saw it in the crusades and thought "These backwards heathens are savages, but their women not being so vain about their hair isn't such a bad idea." and brought the idea back where it proceeded to dominate European fashion for over a century.

You've said over and over again that they're not the same and I know it, without having the faintest clue what you're talking about. They are in fact the functionally very closely related and it's retarded that you're this attached to the idea they're not when you apparently know nothing about European history.

When you act retarded and have the gall to call someone else a retard, I don't know why you wouldn't expect them to want to rub your nose in it until you start to feel shame for the shit you just deposited on the table.

I don't need your permission to point out why you're being dumb every time you reply, who the fuck are you to think people have to put up with your shit-talking quietly?

I'm not the one claiming either of those are modern, in fact I've been explicit that I'm talking about historical context. It's not disingenuous to look at history as a whole, and very clearly label which time period you're talking about, rather than being myopically focused on only one period or mislabeling things as modern.

I swear it's like whenever you get half an inkling of something that sounds like a gotcha you latch on like a dog and jump to post some snarky reply before even finishing the thought process and checking it makes sense. Like I said, laziness is habit forming, even in basic logic error checking.
