    Dividing us into subcategories could be dangerous. Where does it end? Echo chambers and fighting. If we’re all different but in the same boat, we can learn more from each other.
    I think the forum divisions and thread topics generally achieve the desired goal, which is men with similar interests/lifestyles finding each other.

    True Sandal. I didn’t get a chance to watch the videos. I will do that. I never want to one who lives in an echo chamber.

    My thing though, is that all to often I find myself second guessing my gut desicion and I keep missing opportunities. I will definitely check out the videos though.

    Bitcoin itself have no real intrinsic value. But then neither does the US dollar. It’s been backed by oil since coming off the gold standard,but in this day and age the digital currency is coming into the mainstream and we can resist it or see the potential.

    It’s all gambling in the end. I’m just tired of not trusting my gut when opportunity knocks.

    Thanks man!

    My generation is full of idiots.

    Every generation can be full of idiots. It just depends on your definition of idiot. Some people would say Evan Spiegel (Snapchat founder and CEO) is an idiot because he decided to get married to an older woman. Some would say he is a genius for creating Snapchat.

    It is really all about perspective. You can say a lot of men on this website are smart for certain reasons and idiots for others. Generalizing people as idiots only hurts ourselves. We can learn something from everyone.

    We should try to maintain an open mind, otherwise we risk becoming an echo chamber thereby limiting our own personal growth.

    Here goes some condensed history:
    When african blacks enslaved other african blacks, white men went there and kicked their ass.
    When Muslims invaded and enslaved everyone they could, white men went there and kicked their ass.
    When whites enslaved blacks, other white men went there and kicked their ass.
    When nazis enslaved and killed jews and gipsies and blacks, white men (for the most part) went and kicked their ass.

    As long as there will be white men, and good men in general, slave owners and genocidal maniacs will get their ass kicked.

    Destroy the good men, of any color, and slavery will be the staus quo.

    This goes along with a lot of other things in my mind. Either I am Crazy, (Very possible) OR.. I just have hopes and dreams of coming back in my next life time cucked and f~~~ed from birth.(Got to laugh at that one, you white guys are the definition of no good deed goes unpunished)

    let’s put this BLUNTLY. EUROPEAN. Not WHITE. NO ONE IS F~~~ING WHITE. Stop that ASSHOLES! You are playing into the first trap right from the start.

    DO NOT CALL YOURSELF WHITE! CALL YOURSELF GERMAN, POLKA Polka Polka DANCE DANCE the 3rd! ( Whatever you do DO NOT FALL FOR CALLING YOURSELF WHITE. THAT IS THE TRAP YOU DICK TARDS!

    The tactic of division is the same for uniting people.

    All of those w0men on the Dick Exhange 500, FEEL only one thing. YOU STILL CARE. YOU CARE about WHITE. Its time to start caring about being GERMAN, Polish, Swiss Irish etc.

    If these women tell you they are white, LEAVE THEM ALONE. If they tell you they are a mutt, RUN.

    You start the trend about being about yourself, by CARING WHERE YOU COME FROM.

    The more you do this, the less EVIL DOCTOR VAGINIASTINE
    Ok I like scully but this just fits

    can target you since they now have to give you your own classification. When you do that, they can’t make you a target since that privilege can then be argued averted by Victim points.

    Again. You NEED to out crazy them. You need to start coming up with you own victum class, while playing the fence on the other side.

    This is no different from what you did on the playground when it was boys against girls.

    Now stop worrying about the women here. THE LESS YOU WANT THEM AND POINT OUT THAT YOU DON”T CARE ABOUT WHITE WOMEN and start saying : I LOVE IRISH WOMEN. or.. I LOVE Russian women. The more you stick it to them the more they will try and shape up.

    You want to pass down your great Levi’s, Better make sure you have the infrastructure for them. Right now, you are not even capable of doing so in the USA. So NOW move your operations elsewhere where you have control.

    Do NOT get married. Have children if you wish, but do it outside of the laws of the United states. And NEVER let anyone around her that YOU do not control. That means TV, internet etc.

    The idea here is to flood the water like women do. Control the town, she lives in, and the people she knows, and you will be fine.

    I am not advocating this, but if you are going to drop the Family bomb. Find a way to protect yourself. I am warning you. It’s not for the faint of heart.

    There is a reason why White Nationalist want to live in their own communities. That is the only way you can make sure every other man plays by the rules. If one does not, no one is going to blink an eye if he “Falls at work” etc.

    But YOU do not have to go that far. You just need to be German. (Even if you are not) or Irish, etc. You just need to be exclusive, and one of a kind to show value, and have the echo chamber that shows these women who you have children with how GREAT it is NOT to be a slut and showcase women that are, (even if it’s all made up) I don’t care if a group of you hire an actor to do it. (Make sure she’s from another country)

    What you need is to foster COMMUNITIES like they use to, and get rid of any outsiders that want to f~~~ with it PERIOD.

    Remember, she is a time bomb in disneyland. When she starts ticking, get away. But until then, raise your family the best way you can, and never forget that you are always in danger for doing so.

    You will live a lie just remember that. So do it if you want. just understand that there is no love there. And your kids may still end up f~~~ed up since she may see no goal of being a good mom. So make sure you have her “Mom got ran over by a reindeer” replacement kit on hand.

    And if you do… MAKE SURE SHE IS NO OLDER THEN 18. PERIOD. END OF STORY. I know it may be revolting. But sadly/.. You have the best chance if you get them at 16. And make sure they live in some OUTSKIRTS of CANADA. Someplace COLD AS F~~~. Strong MALE CHURCH scene, and Moles planted to take care of any problems that come up.

    Sorry gents. The real story is, the marriages that ARE working out.. There is always something wrong with them. What that is..? You may not want to know about.

    Sorry for ranting. And good luck.

    You are all alone. If you have been falsely accused of RAPE, DV, PLEASE let all men know about the people who did this. http://register-her.net/web/guest/home

    I found this, oh so entertaining; but the last thing I want is to be part of an echo-chamber, and persist in confirmation bias. So, I want honest opinions

    If you think my interpretations of any of the following are off-chart, please let me know. I encourage all opinions, of all readers.

    I’m not on any form of social media, but out of curiosity the other night, I found one of my ex fu$K buddies (whose married with kids) on Yelp.

    She’s:

    Married, with three kids, now in her early 40’s has peroxide blonde dyed hair, fake t~~~, botox, tons of make up, fake nails, etc.

    She’s the quintessential modern ‘bitch’: manipulative, and accustomed to getting her way.

    To the point –

    I clicked on her ‘Yelp’ “reviews” and found them ironic. Each one was complaining, essentially at her not getting enough attention. There were two which stood out to me:

    #1. She literally posted a complaint that she was at a bar, and the bar tender noticed her, but didn’t take her order. He instead went to other customers he knew, and took their orders first.

      She was so upset by this, that she not only posted on Yelp, but posted that she also asked for the manager of the bar and told him of the situation.

    I’ve spent COUNTLESS hours in bars. This is a NORMAL occurrence (i.e. not getting waited on first). How the FU$K could she possibly be upset about this?

    To me, this must be an obvious sign of “hitting the wall” and not getting the attention she thinks she should command.

    #2. She posted another complaint on Yelp about going to a “hookah lounge” and said she had gone their once prior, but this time the server promptly asked her –

    “how much money are you going to spend?”.

    She was pi$$ed, and blasted Yelp (LOL). Stating, “How can a business owner ask how much money I’m going to spend”?

    I think this girl has FINALLY hit the wall.

    It doesn’t matter how much artificial appliances she applies (i.e. fake t~~~, dyed hair, make up, etc, etc) guys simply aren’t bending over backwards for her the way they used to, and she is not only noticing, but she’s pi$$ed!

    You’re honest thoughts?

    Resident cynic.

    I’m a lazy f~~~, so I use the upvote as a ‘bookmark’ so I can scroll fast posts I’ve already read, so keep the upvote. The downvote is just a tool for trolls to start flamewars. One thing though, if Keymaster can implement it, is to mark posters gaining several hundred of upvotes in very short time. So, if/when they start s~~~, it should be easy to check if they’re legitimate or trolls.

    Are you the guy, then, who upticks every post? Not saying it’s wrong, just curious.

    If you guys are going to agree with each other please do that by private male as we don’t want to sound like an echo chamber with, “Wow, I agree with you”, “couldn’t have said it better myself” and the most common “you hit the nail on the head”.

    ^^^ This. Totally concur.

    I like the voting because I get a lot of likes and it makes me feel all warm and snuggely. Also it let’s me know if I’m on track with my posts.

    It’s nice to see friendships and comradery grow in men going their own way. I think that’s one of the great things about this site

    Note, I said BRAIN, not your heart.

    If anyone remembers, there was a chick I knew from Arkansas online that was very sketchy, yet I was a purple pilled idiot at the time and went for her anyway despite my doubts and despite the thought that she slept with someone else stuck in my mind.

    Though the stories are long, it gives you guys a better perspective to what I’m going to say next.

    Story 1

    Story 2

    I talked to other women because my logical side told me she slept with the man that visited her after she dissed seeing me last year, and she held that against me by swearing up and down she did nothing with the guy that visited her.

    Ever since I left Arkansas and came back home, she’s been constantly harassing me with messages on all forms of media: Online and texting. When I block her on one thing, she finds me on another and continues to remind me how happy she is with the new guy she’s seeing (though she also tries contacting me when he “hurts” her, though she later says he never hurt her and it was all miscommunication).

    Ignoring her isn’t hard anymore, especially when she has her boyfriend now texting me as well (she “accidentally” gave him my number) and trying to call me out to argue and fight with him, and I ignore him as well. They both are trying to get a reaction they’re not getting, and thus call me a “coward” for it.

    The golden part about all this? Two weeks ago, she admitted to what she swore she didn’t do for over a YEAR now: “I have to get this off my chest finally…I did sleep with that guy, both nights he was here. Now, I didn’t like it as much as I did with you keep in mind, and we didn’t do nearly as much as you and I did. I felt so gross but at the time I thought you weren’t serious about being into me and I needed an outlet and he was all there was.
    I didn’t have a good time with him at all though, I just pretended to be happy.”

    For some reason, that hit me like a ton of bricks. I was right the entire time. I was right. I shouldn’t have wasted my time with her. She was a slut and she didn’t even care about it, nor did she tell me about it until AFTER she left me and went for someone else. She blamed her AND my insecurities all on me. I was insecure BECAUSE of that very situation last year.

    I started thinking about how unfair that is. She basically framed me the whole time as this player to everyone we knew when I DARED talk to other women while she claimed to “love” me and to “only be into me” yet talked to other men…yet she’s the one that actually DID something.

    I should have listened to my logic. She was deflecting and projecting all at the same time, and only admits to what she did after she’s “engaged” to a new man now.

    Despite her kindness and apologies for what she did, she still to this day finds a means to contact me and insult me. Despite all measures I’ve taken to cease contact with her (and now her boyfriend as well), she still tries to attack me and bring me down. She just can’t let me go.

    The most recent thing she attacked me for was because I shared a funny post on a blog of mine (that she somehow found) that said “just because a man wears a skirt, it doesn’t make him a woman.” She decided to message me a 5 page message telling me “sex and gender are two different things, I learned this from biology majors and graduates in universities, ACTUAL scientists. Don’t be a bigot and don’t be so narrow minded in your echo chamber.”

    This coming from an “anti-first wave feminist conservative.”

    Nah, all women are feminist progressives to some extent or another, and this just proves that I should have listened to my brain here as well because I KNEW that.

    The irony is that despite her attempts to constantly contact me and upset me, I’m actually doing better than ever before. I just paid off my truck, my job’s first project is coming to a close but I’m being offered more projects that would pay for my temporary relocation in Florida, Puerto Rico, or California, and the money I have now will be mine to save, save, save (as I stated in my last post).

    I feel so free mentally, emotionally, and financially now. My next goal is to save for my own place to live, even if it’s just a small spit of land for me.

    I love my life right now.

    She may very well have been born a man. We don’t know how those kids were conceived. She also could be a FTM transgender, or someone who takes hormones to grow a penis. I use the term “penis” lightly but there are hormones ladies can take to grow their clitoris out a few inches.

    The thing about most of these people is they don’t have to live the life that normal, everyday families have to live. They have multiple houses, house keepers, landscapers and nannies. Often, as was with the Clintons and the Obamas, they have some kind of arrangement going on that is there for financial and political purposes. One goes off and dates whomever and the other one does the same. They’re seen together when they need to be and it is all acting.

    That, in and of itself is not the problem. They problem comes about when they start believing they should start advising then dictating how others should behave. They are often surrounded by sycophants and their supporters, totally isolated in their echo chambers. They are almost always self righteous, regardless of whatever political spectrum they’re on, and they believe they know what is best for everyone. Their own self righteous crusade acts as a vent for their self misery and absolves their guilt. Their internal rot feeds on itself, much as it does with any miserable, self righteous person.

    But their reality is totally different from the reality of almost all Americans and their beliefs, based off of their own life experiences, are totally different from 98% of the population and simply not pragmatic for 98% of the population. When we have a mainstream media and 1 of 2 major political parties supporting this kind of divisiveness and hate speech towards men, it becomes cult like. As with any cult, there will be no backing down, no cooling off. It will keep going until it implodes in on itself and take everyone else with it that it can.

    Unfortunately, many younger people listen to this drivel and see it as wisdom, as they follow her advise more and more, they become lonelier and lonelier, further ostracizing themselves from potential male mates and husbands, often being used for sex by the males that do choose to mate with them. Usually, they stick their head further in the sand, go all in and get angrier and angrier, never realizing their hatred of men is often a result of their their own actions and beliefs that cause those actions. They usually have no real identity, only seeking some kind of Holy Grail of equality and everything they do at work or at school revolves around that. This often leaves them with no life partner, no children, no marriage, simply a string of abortions, dump and runs, divorces and drug usage. They do not know how to choose a good man or how to find a good man. They don’t even know what they want out of men. They are simply blinded by hate towards men, towards whites and this is the center of their universe. Everything they look at in the world, they look at through those blinders. Everything is color or sex. People simply aren’t people. They separate themselves from 80% or more of people before they even meet them, seeing the rest of us not as humans but more like a color by numbers book. Even briefly, when they meet someone like themselves, they are given a psuedo-bond that is based on mutual hate, dislike and perceived oppression, not actual struggle. This bond has no real, long lasting effects, like children, marriage, a mentor that teaches you career skills etc, it’s just based on mutual disdain in a war they themselves are perpetuating and creating.

    When you smile at the world, it often smiles back. When you frown at it, it will utterly and completely destroy you. These women, at a young age, before they even really know who they are, are led astray by people like Michelle Obama. Younger people are often full of energy and intelligence but lacking in wisdom.
    Only when we are older do we see that. When they are led astray by popular culture and leaders like Obana, masked as “the resistance” the results are disastrous.

    Indoctrinated people who believe in this smut separate themselves from all of us at work. They don’t form sustainable and productive relationships. At a young age they are not taught how to judge people on character. Rather, they are taught to judge them on how they were born. Habits, especially when formed when you’re young, are extremely hard to break. Year after year, they walk around work and college campuses, eyes bugged out of their head, watching MSNBC and CNN, reading garbage, making enemies out of every potential friend they come across. The men they sleep with are the charmers, the snake oil salesmen, or hookups they have while drunk or high. As their confidence is chipped away at, their youth goes as well. By the time they hit their mid 30s, some late 20s, they are left with nothing but bastard children, addiction issues, obesity problems and severe mental issues. The foundation for that rotten house was built long ago. Now the roof is leaking. The pipes are bursting. They can’t even go out and have a good time with substance abuse anymore. Often, they turn to cats, prescription drugs, continue to drudge into work where they are miserable and make everyone else miserable, and hang on by a thread everyday of their lives, consumed by despair, hate and bitterness. Yet, even reading my words, they would convince themselves they are happy and fulfilled. They often do that around some people but then the dam breaks and they lash out at anyone around them. This is all too common with these people. There is absolutely nothing you can do for them. They are simply land mines to be avoided. Trying to be nice, invite them to lunch, chat with them about anything personal, is seen as “rape.” Every conversation with them is energy consuming, as every word has to be chosen carefully. The worse they act, the more people avoid them, the angrier they get. Brief respites with substance abuse and serial monogamy help but as more and more men are avoiding these types of women like the plague, they are becoming lonelier and angrier.

    They are on a freight train to nowhere. People like Michelle Obama and uni professors are the conductors. Media outlets like CNN and Buzzfeed are the rails.

    I recently canceled my subscription to Tom’s show due to a few reasons:

    – Adam Sacks (divorce/criminal defense attorney) no longer has a weekly segment, he was entertaining and informative. I suspect this happened because Adam is a Trump supporter and called out Tom a few times for supporting Hillary

    – The monthly segment with the racist creep Gustavo Arellano, who only spouts his MECHA/LA Raza hateful rhetoric about America and caucasians. Tom acts like his biggest fanboy agreeing there should be open borders yet he is always whining about paying taxes. Can’t have it both ways Tom.

    – The show is now mostly geared towards Tom’s far-left political rants. Almost every segment, no matter what the topic, he bashes Trump and blames him for everything (recent hurricanes, global warming, mass shootings, Dow drops 0.15% in one day, North Korea, ISIS etc.). He also gives Antifa and SJWs free passes

    – Anyone that calls in who disagrees with Tom gets words put into their mouth, talked over, and ridiculed. He is hyper-sensitive towards criticism and differing opinions. The show has become an echo chamber for the regular callers – whom in general seem to have lower IQs. I think this is by design so Tom is always told how great and smart he is rather than having back-and-forth dialogue.

    – His general personal finance advice is pretty good: avoid debt, live below your means, save/invest regularly, etc. However rather than admitting he doesn’t know something, Tom will guess the answer resulting in bad advice. I also disagree when he advises callers, who are investing newbies, they should be trading individual stocks when they don’t even know what a mutual fund or IRA is.

    – The show has become repetitive and stagnant. How many times can you repeat the Leykis 101 rules, issues with his dad, and the same stories about the radio industry?

    – The non-stop selling of wine, party tickets, Dodger tickets, dinners, subscriptions, etc. gets old.

    – When subscribers have problems with the app, Tom just refers them to the app developer. He should be doing that rather than the paying customers.

    It’s Tom’s show and he can certainly do things how he chooses, just like how I can choose to spend the subscription fee in a different way.

    I stopped listening a few weeks ago for these very same reasons.

    I liked Adam Sacks too. That was one of my favorite segments. I don’t think Tom’s ego could handle Adam correcting him but at the same time Adam should have shut the f~~~ up about certain things. Adam gave the grim truth about what men have to deal with and what they need to be aware of in this gynocentric hell hole.

    Gustavo is a little, bratty, self entitled, and racist asshole. His voice is not only grinding and irritating but his snide thinly veiled racism is bulls~~~ that I just couldn’t stand anymore. I have the feeling that I would back hand him across his mouth if I ever had to endure his high pitched whiny bitch voice in person. I just didn’t relate to the days he was on the air, I would turn it off.

    I’m sick and tired of hearing Tom spread his hateful dishonest rhetoric regarding Trump. I’m not even a Trump guy but he’s better than that piece of s~~~ Hillary. Tom just fell into the leftist echo chamber talking points and regurgitated each lie over and over. I sent them some emails correcting them on some of the bulls~~~ that they were unwittingly repeating and of course I got no reply. The last day that I listened, that f~~~ing piece of s~~~ Gustavo was spewing his typical garbage. Repeating himself over and f~~~ing over again “f~~~ trump, blah chavala blah blah chavala, f~~~ Trump, chavala, f~~~ Trump…” GIVE ME A F~~~ING BREAK YOU F~~~ING F~~!

    Tom claims to be a libertarian but he is far from it when he defends SJWs and f~~~ing Antifa. He started threatening to hang up on people if they referred to Antifa as “Antifa” and SJWs as “SJWs”. I was massively confused. What the f~~~ am I supposed to call them then? It’s his show, he can do whatever the f~~~ he wants but he ain’t no libertarian. When he stood to be counted with Hillary, the most evil politician of our time, and support groups that would love to physically beat him up and shut him down, he went full retard.

    Tom was entertaining as a wind up artist in the past and he did used to dispense some heavy duty red pills at one point. His money advice was good entry level stuff and I enjoyed it. I only enjoyed his monologues at the beginning of Leykis 101, after that it was the same s~~~ over and over.

    Also, Tom is 60+ now. His voice is gone and his quick wit is gone too. The entire show feels like it is in slow motion. I know he pops the pot brownies and pot edibles each night. I think he’s taking too f~~~ing much.

    I think his show can only truly work on terrestrial radio. That’s the only way to get randoms to call in.

    Not sure if I’ll go back to listening. I was a paid subscriber for a while. Once he started insulting a lot of my values, I decided to let go. Up until a couple months I ago, I was still defending Tom. I just can’t do it anymore. I think his show is flat lining now and that he is forced to cater to the fringe left to keep people calling in.

    The pressure has finally got to S~~~TUBE, THEY ARE FINALLY ADMITTING TO CENSORSHIP

    Buti It’s too late Youtube, we are all aware of your censorship practices and want nothing to do with your platform. You are as toxic as women, making your platform an echo chamber for LIBTARDS and SJWs and inhibiting free speech. YOU BROUGHT THIS UPON YOURSELF. YOU MADE YOUR BED NOW F~~~ING LIE IN IT!

    Marriage and Divorce for a man is like getting a cactus shoved up your ass. It’s painful with all the spines that go in and it is painful getting all the spines out, meanwhile Wifey gets most of the money, your home, your kids, and practically everything you own.

    Just like we all thought they will eat themselves from the inside out just like the cancer they are. I’m also noticing a trend that all these so called “victims” are post wall hitters…hummmm?

    This is a mild preview to what will happened with the welfare system collapses (both poor welfare and corporate welfare).

    It is rumored that far worse events have happened in Hollywood.

    While I believe Weinstien is guilty of much of what is he is accuse of. It looks like this is scandal is being used to purge what is left of the talent in Hollywood.

    I believe what we are watching is the hive of Hollywood purging those that were willing to playball, but were able to be successful doing their own thing.

    Oliver Stone, Michael Moore, Quentin Tarantino. Love them or hate them. These men marched to the beat of their own drummer. They made their wealth outside of the movie “formula” that Hollywood as a whole pushes, and the rest of Hollywood hates them for it.

    After the hive of Hollywood purges such men, Hollywood will become an even worse echo chamber.

    We are watching endgame of a conspiracy of silence. Where everyone in a group has dirt on everyone else. As their power weakens, more of more scandals come out. The group close in, while throwing the less liked members of their group out as scapegoats. The group will continue to contract from the group given more of more scapegoats due to the combination of their weakening power structure and more and more scandals coming out. The worse of the worse will likely be thrown out, and they likely be the ones left when their entire empire collapses.

    First things first, Gorka & Bannon: Both Bannon and Gorka are working better outside the White House than they ever were inside of it. Outside of it, they can help push the agenda and most importantly, get establishment candidates voted out of office so that MAGA candidates can be elected. We’ve seen that five times. Five different people and all of them are candidates who are on Trump’s side, and not the establishment. The goal here is to put more MAGA candidates into Congress so people like McCain, Murkosky, and Collins no longer matter. On this front, they are succeeding by leaps & bounds. And they have a cacophony of candidates ready to go in the 2018 mid-terms.

    Let’s see here, ok lets do the wall next. I don’t know if you’re familiar with the Constitution so i’m going to assume you don’t and take the time to explain something called “Appropriations”. Appropriations are money. And in order for bills to get the “Appropriations they need, they must be ok’d by Congress. That’s what was one of the major things wrong with Obamacare. It paid insurance companies subsidies without the permission of Congress. Trump could easily write an executive order that would get the $10 Billion needed for the wall, but guess what, that would be illegal. So what did he do, he put it in his budget plan and Congress has already approved it.

    Don’t know what your outlook is on construction but please tell me how long do you think it would take to construct a wall on the border from California to Texas?? Let me teach you about business, see i’m a teacher, and my job is to educate people, and take the complex and make it simple. Here’s how business works OK. First, you get a blueprint for what you want the wall to look like. That’s why 10 companies are down on the border right now, building prototypes to see which one will be the eventual design. Once you get the design chosen, it then has to be approved. Then you gotta acquire the land, there’s a process for using imminent domain that’s gonna take a while to get all that land. Then you break ground. Then you build it. Don’t know if you’ve ever been on a build site before but it’s not like these tv shows where they “build” a house in 30 minutes. It takes more than ten months to do this. Sit down and relax on that.

    Ok, how about we try the women stuff. Edu Secretary and Ivanka:

    I know especially around here, people get into an echo chamber and tend to think the same. I don’t know your dealings with women, i don’t care. But here’s a fact that may be lost on you, women make up the majority of this country. Please don’t think you can run for office and not have to deal with them. Trump won the majority of white women voters. Your more mad that the EDU secretary is a woman, and not excited that she handled title 9, which unfairly treated men who were falsely accused of rape?

    The EDU secretary has done all good things since she’s been there. Advocating for more charter schools so parents won’t have to send their kids to these horrid public schools is a win. A Women’s empowerment group? Again, i know the mentality of the guys on this site, but take off the rose-colored glasses and think about what happens to those islamic women who get beaten, burned, have acid thrown on them if they even look at a man in a way he thinks is disrespectful. Let’s not get carried away here and think they are less than because they are women.

    Man this is a lot of s~~~. This is the best you can do? Let me grab a drink and i’ll be right back to it.

    What does this have to do with MGTOW?
    Beware of echo chamber mentality and confirmation bias. Always think for yourself, and respect that others might think differently.

    Well said, feminists have closed their eyes and minds to rational thought a long time ago, and they are starting to turn on themselves. I do not want to see us men do the same.

    Don't chase tail. Turn yours around, walk away, and live free!

    Beware of echo chamber mentality and confirmation bias. Always think for yourself, and respect that others might think differently. If you don’t agree, make rational arguments. Don’t shame or resort to name calling. If not, we are no better than the SJW-crowd and 3rd wave feminists, but just on the other side of the spectrum. Beware of only seeking out material that enhances your confirmation bias.

    Think for yourself – go Your own way also with your mind, thoughts and beliefs.

    Excellent post. MGTOW manifesto stuff.

    Oh well, I’m out of here. I have to catch some shut-eye. I would suggest that you lurk a bit, monitor the interactions here, and decide for yourself if they live up to your standards.

    Meantime, I would argue that the other members aren’t interested in creating an echo chamber or confirmation bias either. They just want to speak in their own voice and say what’s on their mind in their own words. You know, the whole “go your own way” thing.

    Oh well, good talking at you. And welcome to the forum!

    Anyway, it sounds a bit like you’re saying that people have to argue the way *you* prefer, or else “we’re no better than feminists and SJWs, relying on emotion and echo chambers.” I’m just saying people aren’t going to be impressed by that argument. They’re going to argue the way they want. They’re going to argue to win.

    Yes, this is what I am saying. Likewise, I am not impressed with people using emotional arguments over rational ones. But then again, this is also my entire point. People think differently. Some are more emotional than others. Others are more rational. It is only an echochamber if one only allows one type of opinion to be heard. As long as both are tolerated, I am happy with that.

    As I advocate against uniformity of opinion, it would be strange if I required others to agree with me on the original post and required them to take the same position as me also in this matter. I don’t. I am stating my opinion. But I am not requiring others to share it. In fact, that would be rather boring.

    I neither expect nor require formal debate rules. I guess the point I was trying to make was more that I was contemplating mob-mentality against “wrong-thinkers”. Personally, I am not easily offended. Not even in real life. I have had friends and colleagues at work trying very deliberatly to get me off balance in discussions. I usually enjoy watching them try.

    Alright, I guess we’re talking past one another. Anyway, it sounds a bit like you’re saying that people have to argue the way *you* prefer, or else “we’re no better than feminists and SJWs, relying on emotion and echo chambers.” I’m just saying people aren’t going to be impressed by that argument. They’re going to argue the way they want. They’re going to argue to win.

    Anyway, the weekend’s here. I’m sure you’ll have opportunity to see a debate or two before the weekend’s up. So you can judge for yourself the best course of action for you to take. I’m not prescribing anything for you. I’m just saying that it’s kind of “anything goes” around here.
