Why do black Americans complain about slavery, they didn't personally experience it and living in the US is better than living in Africa

So you want 1984. Sigh, just like pretty much everyone but me these days...

Want it? No. Of course not.
Will it come though?
Friend, I would prefer in many ways an EMP.
Simpler life is a more honest one and I think the person above me was expressing that same sentiment.
A world where one can use his skills and work hard, and live amongst a society of like minded people who have a sense of community when there's a need, but otherwise mind their own.
By the sweat of the brow, right?

You said every man should be forced to be in the military like this is fucking North Korea. And you called women shit.

lol, only that I did neither.
If you're done being Phil Donahue (Are you male? I don't want to mis-gender now)
I stated a fact that women are capable and do use sex and the withholding of affection as a bargaining tool.
Both sexes use manipulation, do they not?
So to state that before the suffrage movement, women still had significant sway over their husbands--whether lawmaker or lower, shouldn't be all that controversial.
Military service is a good thing. I was not fortunate to have served, but I have mad respect for those who have.
Old ideals were in some ways better than ones we have today.

There's no sense of patriotism in upcoming generations because the concept of military service is completely foreign.
They are embarrassed of the United States and label it backwards and forwards a contemptibly racist proposition that must be destroyed at all costs.

Maybe you're a leftist. And I'm not trying to denigrate you by asking that, I don't know you from Adam, but if Jordan Peterson's schtick resonates with certain youth, you've got to ask yourself, why?

Is it because they're taught all the things that supposedly set one up for success, but not faithfulness, perseverance, personal responsibility and discipline?
The old military allegedly gave people a compass, one to set direction by.
You can be a rudderless ship, but how's that working out for ya, America? Seems like the MGToW is a pushback reaction to what men see as a stacked deck against them.
Hey, I guess you do you, boo.

I don't want any of this new political bullshit. At the least I want the land of the FREE back, and ideally we go to minarchy or even total abolition of the state.

I guess I could count us lucky that we ever had that at all. It just doesn't jive with human nature.

I also despise identity politics.

I'll have to look into "minarchy" apparently "Night-Watchman state"? Which sounds way cooler.
