I don’t have a “plan” to address what you see as the problem because I think the problem is different. I don’t think the issue is that women are conspiring against men and if we could just return to a strong patriarchal society we would have no issues.

As a stop gap, what needs to be done is to build up strong places and strong bonds of trust. Make families, make friends, build communities, and build each other up in truth, virtue, and God to be able to ride out the coming storm. What comes next? Who can say. But we won’t find salvation in technological ascendency- it has never demonstrably fixed any of the core issues in mankind. That path has already been walked a number of times.

“If we give the people I think want to kill us a method to make us obsolete, then our victory is assured!”

I won’t even go into all the other myriad issues with your philosophy. The fact that by your own standards you are happy to hand victory over to those you say are vile enemies is enough to show your utter incoherency.

Lmao that you think that this would at all remove feminism’s power. The technology would be limited, and also would be tightly controlled. Controlled by the very governments and institutions controlled by feminism. Do you not realize this cuts both ways? By your own philosophy, wouldn’t feminists welcome the chance to cut themselves off from men entirely, to form enclaves where they breed only hordes of more women, forming close knit and impenetrable ideological sets?

If everything that you think is true (worth noting that it isn’t- COVID and the vaccines were not genetically engineered by a cabal of women to wipe out men, as just one example), this would herald the actual ability to implement Solanas’s ideas. Technology is not a solution to an ideological problem. You have to address the actual ideological roots, which you are not capable of doing since you are essentially the male Solanas.

Oh boy! I can’t wait for manmade horrors beyond my comprehension! It’ll be worth the technological horror show because some women will be inconvenienced!

Precisely. Am teacher. Would love to be able to teach but instead I’m having to essentially babysit a bunch of kids who resent me for making them not be on their phones and actually reading something.

“Yeah I did a surgery to make you mutilated, and now your body is malfunctioning. That sounds about right, why are you calling?”

He doesn’t ruin it, but for every good post or comment there are five more that are unhinged slop. He’s slowly making himself a community lolcow.

Elections last so long these days though. Definitely longer than four hours.

We live in a culture of death. Death is our preferred solution to any problem, rather than addressing the structures we have that prevent life from flourishing. Have a baby you don’t want to take care of? Kill it via abortion. Have an elderly parent who it’s inconvenient to help? Put them in a home so they can die out of sight and mind. Have horrifying levels of health and mental issues? Give drugs to deal with the symptoms rather than cut out the roots. A culture of death will only come to one end, because it ipso facto rejects life.

Almost as if there were a unifying idea that something is inherently wrong with the human being and soul, causing us to not be able to maintain goodness on our own. If only there were some word to describe that concept…

So the pornographer who measures his value by his wealth turned out to be a scumbag and not a good role model? Wow! Who could have seen this coming!?

Looking through my grasses, you’re absolutely correct!

Almost as if we shouldn’t become consumed by love for people behind a screen who don’t even know we exist. The cult-like worship of Internet personalities is part of the problem.

On the one hand, link is best as a voiceless protagonist. On the other hand, this would potentially mean that Morshu could be in it, and the addition of more lamp oil, ropes, and bombs to the world would be an excellent thing.

Played a fair bit of Elden Ring at the start of the year, but honestly it’s been a Pokémon kick for me all the year through. Legends Arceus was groundbreaking for the franchise in actually shaking things up, and Scarlet and Violet are a lot of fun to play with my little brother. As a whole I find the switch to be nice for a half hour to an hour before bed, which is most of when I can actually play. Just don’t have time to put into a game like when I was in college, so it’s nice to have that.

Yeah but there are also snakes that will ambush you from the jungle so it seems like a wash.

What a thing to be living through the paradigm shift. I can’t wait for the trash economy

Has there been any instance in human history of humans keeping their evil, sinful nature in check?

I’m sure our collapsing society will be bettered by young men losing hope, becoming addicted to porn, avoiding social interaction, and staying on screens all day. This truly is awful advice; thank you for your wisdom Imp.
