"..all my friends agree with me.." she says

[WhiteKnightNoMoreParticipant 22]

Well, all her female friends, that is.

“Yes, of course they all agree that I’m a thoughtless selfish bastard and everything is all my fault. They’re women! They’re your echo chamber. They’ll hear your opinions and give them back to you, reinforced.

Try this instead, my darling: Next time you want to play your game of “All My Friends Agree With Me” try describing my situation to them as if I was a woman. Describe us, you and me, as if we are a couple you know. Describe how you treat me – the shouting, the throwing things, the slapping my face, the total control of my life – but do it as if you were the man. Describe how I respond – paying the mortgage, paying the bills, doing all the cooking and cleaning, fulfilling your physical needs while not fulfilling mine – but do it as if I was the woman.

I absolutely guarantee, 100%, that every single one of your female friends will say “he” is a bastard and that “she” should leave him and take everything she can get.

Go on try it. I dare you.”

Yup they all agree. So you must be right. I must not be worth the effort. I completely understand why you are dumping me and moving on. So why are we still talking?

Goodbye, Judy.

Order the good wine

Fight friends. The show Til Death hit this topic.

I think its why the show only lasted 4 years. They showed things more balanced even though the guys usually caved at the end for the women viewers happy ending. They showed women characters being clearly mean, hypocritical, irrational and wrong. And getting called on it.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

“… all my friends”

Never heard a lynch mob described in those terms before.

Exactly. A point I kept making in my last relationship: “Gawd, since I am so awful and you are so wonderful, you need to dump my ass, move out and find someone else.”

When you hear a woman say “all my friends agree”, you have just heard a woman provide evidence that AWALT is an accurate term.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

And if some of her friends happen to be male, they only agree because they want to have sex with her.

Feminism isn't about equality with men, it's about leverage over men.

It doesnt matter if some of the friends have penises. They are all women and all acting like women.

This whole female unanimously group voting is a problem to a much larger topic. Females have learned how to pool their opinions even if they don’t necessarily agree to win more arguments both socially and politically and I’ve grown very tired of it. Whats worse is a percentage of men will automatically side with them too with the desperate hope of being able to get some clam. Women are never satisfied so once they win the argument it’s only a matter of time before they have new demands.

This is society. feminists/Women beat men up. The media beats up men. Corprate America (Gillette) beats up men. The Church beats men up. Other married men beat men up. #Metoo, Surprise surprise that she can find groups to agree with her.

There are no good women only degrees of bad.

“All my friends agree with me” is confirmation bias. That’s all the hive ever was; a s~~~ storm of confinamtion bias becuase the hive has no argument, point or philosophy. When you have a complete lack of logic and common sense there is no position left other than to throw tantrum supported by “all my friends agree with me” and when her friends throw their tantrums she will agree with them because she owes them.

If you rescue a damsel in distress, all you will get is a distressed damsel.

At every turn, every chance I get, I rebuke the one bashing men. If I see the phrase “toxic masculinity,” I will call it out if possible. I refuse to watch any show or movie that even hints at female supremacy. Brie Larson can keep her movie, I’m not interested. Jennifer Lawrence can say “X-Women” all she wants, I’m not playing. It’s time for men to start keeping their money and avoiding such garbage. Every Tweet I see and can respond to, I will. I absolutely refuse to play for that crap.

^ So much this!

Is your name a nod to Genesis? Nice. But I digress…

I’ve probably talked about this before around here but it bears repeating. I turned my hobby of electronic music production into a paying side career as an act of sheer spite toward the music establishment when the RIAA started suing music customers for downloading. I literally turned the radio off the day I found out about it back in 2003 and I decided to get serious about creating and publishing my own music specifically to work against the big record companies as their indie competition. I wasn’t so blinded by rage as to believe I could take them on myself, but I, along with millions of others creating and distributing their own awesome stuff online, turned the music industry on its ear as it clung to the dying CD format and vowed to fight online music rather than embrace it. Steve Jobs will always hold a special place in my heart for carrying the torch forward with the iTunes Store, but again I digress. So I researched the fnck out of music publishing law and chatted with as many other underground electronic music producers as I could, and I networked my way into regional DJing gigs large and small plus a regular live appearance on the radio four times a year, and I established one of the first music podcasts in 2006 when no one knew about the technology yet. And I partied my b@lls off and met the coolest people, and I found myself. Naturally my boycott of the music industry had to end once I started DJing and buying their music again, but it lasted for years until they decided to end the lawsuits and removed the DRM from iTunes purchases, essentially admitting defeat to the never-ending progress of technology. They’re always the last to adapt, these music companies. They hated radio at first, too. And to think this incredible side hustle began as a defiant act of spite…that’s how you do it. He who turns a negative into a positive shall become rich. “Rich” being open to interpretation.

Yes it is, as is my avatar. 🙂

One of my fav bands of all time, from start to finish.

I do my own brand of multi-tracking when I have the chance. Got a lot of tunes I recorded over the years, solo or with friends.
