When you say "Respect is earned"; well that doesn't apply to women, especially young women. A woman's maximum social value is when they are about 19, and they get it specifically for what is in their pants. Men are literally disposable, and continue to be disposable until they demonstrate they can provide resources. Being a man is demonstrative, like being a writer or being a cook. Being a woman isn't. It is a fundamental difference.

The Women are Wonderful Effect is the in-grouping tendency of women versus men. It has a Wikipedia entry. It is a major reason that women dominated workplaces and industries are fucking awful to work in.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women-are-wonderful_effect

It has major effects on ... basically everything. It is a major reason that women don't have to earn respect.

What made it significant was that the outrage and letters sent by core gamergate got lots of traction with pro ad-agencies and brand managers.

Gaming was a safe, brand friendly way to advertise to a core demographic: Men between 25 and 45 with high disposable income of all political persuasions. After GG Gaming was politically fraught and advertising in one space or another could absolutely damage a brand.

This lead to advertisers asking for a lot more control over where their advertising was being shown; and the advertisers cut out all gaming advertising until things settled down and they understood what was going on.

Yep! This was the Adpocilypse. It completely gutted "native advertising" on YouTube, which was worth hundreds of millions to the market. I am sure about two AAA games flopped because of this.

The knock on effects of the permanent change in the advertising rate for the entire gaming press has sunk two major gaming publishing empires, and slashed the wages of all the gaming writers.

The Gaming Press got together and told gamers how much they hate us; Gamers responded by ending hundreds of millions of dollars of gaming publications.

It left a mark.

Or he is pretty fucking tired of being disposable and without any other value than his wallet to literally half of the population. I am not here to be extracted for cash. I am a person, and I am deserving of as much respect as any woman.

Men are called on to fight and die to protect women and children. Women (on average) produce no net tax over their lifetimes. Every single thing you can see was built by a man. The lights stay on, homes stay standing and roads work because there are men out there making sure that it all happens; basically because we want to please women. By myself I'd probably be pretty happy in a hammock eating chili mud-crabs and playing a tabletop RPG, but I have daughters to support.

You know Tony, sometimes I wish I was a massive faggot like you, with a craving for twinks or BBC. Then at least I would be affected by the disdain society has for men. Men spend their whole lives trying to win the respect of and please women, who are biologically wired to under-value us.

For supporting evidence see:

  • The fact that men's social value goes UP if they castrate themselves and put on a dress
  • The Sentencing Gap
  • Resources for Male Victims of Abuse (or lack thereof)
  • Any given divorce settlement
  • The Family Law Courts and Child Custody Cases
  • Any number of simps trying to buy affection
  • The percentage of workplace maiming and death: Men vs Women
  • The Women are Wonderful Effect
  • Schrodinger's Raipist

I read what you wrote. Did you read what I wrote? Want me to read it out loud to you? Or perhaps just help you with the big words?

I pointed out that our gynocentric society has revoked the social contract that is the foundation of western marriage and as a result the incentives for the majority of men to participate in marriage is at an all time low. The risk/reward is just shockingly bad for men.

If you are not aware, social competition between males for the privilege of breeding has been literally the primary driving force of civilization. Males compete with each other to provide resources to women in return for fidelity and knowing that their genes are being passed on. Historically that has been about 50% of males that get to have kids, and the rest don't.

One of the huge advantages of western society is that the social contract that sees enforced monogamy between partners (there are real consequences for cheating if you get caught) was singularly effective in increasing participation in society by young males; encouraging them to work hard and compete, because they had an excellent chance of securing a mate.

Well, now they don't. Women surf Tinder and order home delivered one-night-stands from a small percentage of the male population. Women attend college and fuck dozens of guys, and don't settle down. Even just four partners a year between the ages of 18 and 30 is 50 sexual partners. That is vastly more than I've ever had, and I am older than 30 by quite a bit.

AFAIK, the demographic for women with highest chance of being married for life is zero sexual partners before marriage and strong church attendance. Met any of those? Ever?

So young men can't find a high quality female to marry; All of them are standing line for a night with Chad or Tyrone. Chad and Tyrone are not willing to marry because they have a long line of willing partners. If a man is willing to pick up some left overs at 30 or so, his risks of utter financial and relationship catastrophe are very high, and there is basically no effective way to mitigate these risks. This situation eclipses the '[fear] ... that [the man] will never be able to adequately provide for them."

Lol. Provide? You mean after she decides to take the kids, the house and his wages too?

How old are you guy? Do you have any male friends with divorce stories? How many of them made it out without having to sleep in their car while they hand over their wages or go to prison? How does that song go?

Eighteen years, eighteen years ; She got one of your kids, got you for eighteen years

Show me a single, female college graduate between 30 and 35, and I'll show you a woman with a body count in the hundreds who is finding out that this is her last chance to settle for the best sperm donor she can get.

Frosk Scripted it. It was put on her teleprompter by a producer. The director shot it. It was edited and aired.

Nothing, not a single thing about this wasn't planed to the smallest detail. After it was produced, directed and recorded, the producers could have kept it in edit until it reflected exactly the message that they wanted; or just scrapped the scene.

"Whops! Total accident! That darn Frosk!"

Not credible. Not even a little bit.

Female fertility drops by about 50% each year after roughly 32. There is a really good reason for women to get married in their 20s; Kids.

A woman who gets married at 32 will have zero or perhaps one child.

Women can delay responsibility all they want; but at some point they just miss out. This is not quite so true for men. I promise that many ladies in Argentina, Poland or the Philippines are just fine with an older man.

I have friends who were on the forefront of electronic manufacturing since the early 2000s. One of the things they have been consistent about is that outsourcing to China gets all of your IP stolen. The CCP will pressure your company to pick a local partner company, then train them up to do the work. They will be running knock-off copies out the back door using the same skills, equipment and training that you have paid for.

Outsourcing to India is worse, but for different reasons. The factory in India explained that they had to buy parts from a certain supplier, because they had a relationship with them. When it was pointed out that the parts were stub-standard, did not pass QC and would require the entire production run to be scrapped, the Indians basically didn't care. They would rather maintain their relationships and get their kickbacks than do useful work.

South America has been much better. Mexico is okay, as long as it is close enough to the border.

All of these extended supply chains are going to fall into a screaming heap if the price of diesel fuel keeps going up. Saving three dollars on a part is useless if shipping costs seven dollars.

You should look up the definition of a "Natural Monopoly".

By definition, the market can not find an efficient solution for a "Natural Monopoly". The choice is to either regulate the market or to have the people (the government) own the Natural Monopoly and run it as a service.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_monopoly

Examples of Natural Monopolies include:

  • Water Pipes
  • Power Poles and Wires
  • Roads
  • City Bus Services
  • Heath Insurance
  • Credit Card Payment Processors
  • Most Banking Applications
  • Most Airlines

Consumers are not weak-willed; Consumers are ignorant and stupid.

Mostly consumers are not able to even able to understand points of difference between products, let alone map and apply a case-by-case comparative value.

Many years ago, in the dim and distant past, I used to sell things for a big box store. This included TVs and Laptops. In this role I set a few sales records. Never once did I sell a product insurance policy.

The way an above average consumer shops for a complex product is that they do a (very) little research and decide on a list of five or six features that are important. Then they see how little money they can pay for those features.

The way a below average consumer shops is that they pick a brand that speaks to their values, then pick a price point within that brand.

As a result, a (say laptop) company does some market research and figures out the buzz-word features that consumers are looking for this month. They then produce a product with those buzz-word features, and cut the costs of everything else to get the price as low as they can. Winning!

Never mind that most laptops die because of dust issues and cooling failure; that replacement lithium batteries can cost as much as the replacement cost of a (refurbished or whatever) computer. Consumers don't understand, they don't care and they won't start.

Want a case study? Look at the way Apple does business. They spend a lot to have a high value brand. They build a walled-garden and aim for maximum data lock-in. Phones, tablets and laptops last the life of their batteries.

With other brands, the models are mostly commodities. The exceptions are Gamers, who are deeply involved in the hobby of gaming, and often hand-build their own computers so they can pick every component. Joe Sixpack will never give a shit about how much an all-in-one water-cooler will extend the life of his box.

I do not know of any method by which the population in general and women in specific can be caused to care about the tech on which they depend for their quality of life. Take away a person's electronics and offer them a notebook and pen and some snail mail stamps; Watch their head explode.

He remarked that about the US election. I am paraphrasing:

"The only way that the election could have been stolen is for every major institution in the USA to be captured. That is extraordinarily unlikely, therefore it is extraordinarily unlikely that the US election was dishonest."

From memory He was said it on a podcast with that tool Bret Weinstein directly after the election.

Well, as it turns out ... according to the TIME article, there was a literal conspiracy to 'fortify' the election, and it had been happening since almost the day Trump won the first time.

I love JP, but sometimes he just has no idea.

There is a bit more to it than that. If a female doesn't receive consistent nutrition for a critical few years of her puberty, her boobs don't grow. Anorexic girls who starve themselves during puberty (about 12 to 15 or something?) don't resume growing where they left off. They just miss out.

So while small boobs are not necessarily a sign of poor childhood nutrition, large boobs are always a sign of good childhood nutrition. Maternal childhood nutrition is expressed in epigenetics in the next generation. Poorly nourished mother = small, less healthy babies.

Want to see examples of this in the wild? Look at the sizes of Japanese women following WWII. After the USA took over, the Japanese people got decent access to protean for almost the first time ever. The USA made sure that the Japanese nation bought a lot of US Produce, including meat. Japanese women went from being short and skinny with little boobs to being all different shapes and sizes, including some very gifted ladies.

So you are right. Big tits = strong hardy babies with well formed organs and many other benefits.

Historically, the Ukrainian company has been caught stealing billions of dollars worth of gas. This is historical record.

I mean, perhaps they are honest now? But probably not?

In 2001, Deputy Prime Minister Oleh Dubyna acknowledged that in 2000 alone 8–7 billion cubic metres (280–250 billion cubic feet) of Russian natural gas had been diverted from export pipelines.

You're not going to get raped.

Only because rape usually happens within the context of relationships with people you already know. Burning down all potential of sexual relationships will also fix the chances that you get sexually abused by a partner or acquaintance.

Guy, heavy Crystal Meth use can cause early onset, aggressive dementia (and worse) at 50. At which point the state has to care for them for thirty years. You can't fix that.

Sniffing solvents (glue, chroming paint, etc) is worse.

For you to not have a massive social cost of self-destructive behavior, you either need medical execution of these cases, or you need to end public funding for the old and venerable.

I don't want either of those things. Do you?

The US marines have done extensive testing on the kind of injuries incurred during basic training.

Women are more than 30 times more likely to blow out a hip ligament under strain. That is, marching with a pack or similar. Over all women are much, much more likely to develop injuries during the physically challenging situations of training and then battle.

Even if you did find a woman who could pass the same tests as a man (there is probably one or two) then she would still be very likely to end her career with a serious, permanent injury, wasting her training and depriving the nation of her abilities.

Look, a very good friend was a loadmaster for C130 transport aircraft for the air force. She must weigh a hundred pounds wringing wet. She was great at her job and an asset to the country.

Then she left to have a baby and never came back. Do the fucking math.
