Is it possible to post on Reddit without people trying to debate every single comment you make? by [deleted] in MeanwhileOnReddit

The trick is to become a mod and just ban them on false pretenses.

Seriously though, I went to Gab for 6 months and came back to Reddit briefly and it still amazes me how much more cooperative of an environment Gab was. It’s known for it’s trolls but I didn’t really see much of anyone getting into fights they didn’t help instigate and I had 90% positive interactions as someone who only tried to build people up. Whereas, if I even just search for info on Reddit, I can find old threads where people literally are picking on children for not understanding how the world works or mocking the grocery store people use or fighting over their own misreading of comments. This is the “mainstream” outlet. They’re not even acting like children, they’re below children.

I’ll probably write a longer post later on Terrible Tommy’s ideas - but I’m glad you’re enjoying discovering him. I really hope someone has a plan to archive the thousands of hours of content he made. Up until very recently, he was still doing online radio for hours a week.

He was a tireless, caring man. I know “caring” sounds odd for his public image but it really comes across in these interviews.

I wrote him maybe a half-dozen times in the last year. I don’t know why I wrote him, it was definitely risky, my gut just told me he was going to die some day and I’d regret it if I didn’t. Each time, he wrote back within a day or two - including a month ago. I was a stranger with little identifying info but he wanted to know I was doing alright and joking like I knew him. He apparently was sending people orders for stickers a few weeks ago.

It’s really sick how this System lies. He definitely said some very “colorful,” by mainstream society standards, things. But he wasn’t a spokesman for violent madmen. He was a father of six, who lived to old age still doing daily legal activism, who seems to have gotten along well with everyone he actually met.

And if you look at a map of America for “second language spoken” or “language spoke at home” 100 years ago, German was as widespread then as Spanish is now. Such things were posted on reddit a few times.

It’s a postscript to our history in Europe but it captures the tragedy of our situation today.

I just deleted a throwaway I had because I kept using it every 3-6 months and it is like eating something that is bad for you because it’s still in the fridge, I always leave in disgust. It made me think of why I originally liked Reddit, circa 2012. People discussed how to get around the Beast System, Tor, racialism on select subreddits, etc. It was like an extension of TOTSE. Now, it’s rotted out and the enemy of freedom. It’s like Protective Custody for our prison of a society, the land of snitches, perverts and wimps. Guess call me a keyboard gangster because I don’t interact with PC individuals.

Jewish IQ debunked by Dragonerne in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 7 insightful - 3 fun7 insightful - 2 fun8 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

I don’t claim any special knowledge but I’ve never been particularly impressed by Jewish intelligence. For one thing, Ashkenazi Jews, which tend to be the most cited, are admixtured with Russians and Germans. When Ashkenazi intelligence is played up as some special Jewish trait, I’m always like “have you met the average German or Russian ex-pat?”

Most Jews I’ve known have never been particularly skilled at STEM and frankly aren’t even good debaters. They just kind of lazily float back to their own self-interest and are surprised I don’t just agree. For all the hostility at the right for the same thing, many are into “crank” science or social theories but their theories are far less likely. Many are sophists who can come up with very detailed ideas that’s component parts don’t actually add up logically. It’s almost as though their ancestors studied Talmud, a work with these characteristics, for thousands of years. Hmm.

It’s a reflection of the Paleocon impulse. He started at The American Conservative, which I used to religiously follow. Many of the authors there circa 2000s when he was an editor would drop these vague threats of switching to the Democrats because they were upset the Republicans would never give them what they want. It’s part of an older playbook. Buchanan even has a history of saying things like he has more in common with Nader than most Republicans.

My reading of the last week in particular is he’s gone from trying to maybe implement that idea, like a reborn Buchanan finally trying it, to just being lost. 2016, he had a dubious but energetic playbook. The Spencer 15 minutes of fame are over this year and so we’re getting a spew of nonsense about Trump shadow governments and base Biden and plain old trolling.

Jewish elite seem to be ending merit based admission to counter the rise of Asian supremacy by casparvoneverec in debatealtright

I was thinking about this the other day. Something like East Indians present a huge challenge to the Jewish place in the cultural hierarchy. They can’t form a credible “us vs. them” victim position against them because there’s no ground for them to claim to be persecuted by them, unlike with WASPs or Arabs. They are wildly more competent in my experience than Jews. And they are unlikely to even “merge” into the Jews, because unlike East Asians so far, they have their own culture and only tend to marry their in-group.

Of course, it doesn’t help that the sheer number of them getting Visas for technical skills is threat to everyone’s social mobility, too.

On Secular Jews by [deleted] in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 7 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 0 fun8 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I don’t have a clear-cut answer - but that gets close to the nature of the problem. There aren't clear-cut factions of Jews like you’re describing, “secular Jews” would actually be a very good way of describing much of Israeli society. You could also do what much of the Right does, which is try to make religious Jews “based” - completely ignoring what the Talmud actually is.

I used to know a Jewish libertarian who was always trying to flex his right-wing credentials. He talked about Atlas Shrugged until I wanted to scream and was insane for Trump. He even went to church because he was intermarried. Sounds pretty, based, huh? (I mean, not really but let’s pretend.)

Over time, I realized that he had horrific demons. This was a huge act of overcompensating. He ultimately turned out to be one of the most Jewish people I knew. He’d done volunteer work for the ADL. He believed in “libertarian open borders.” It’s not hard to see where this isn’t based but just all mixed-up.

Like attracts like. Paul Gottfried presents no problem because he’s Paul Gottfried. He doesn’t damage things because he isn’t damaged. I don’t think we need formal statements of policy beyond that. Despite what our enemies say, we aren’t naturally discriminatory but naturally inclusive and true parallel types will always have a place. Our problems, as countless leaders have indicated, is knowing that some line has to be drawn. We’re less good at that.

Would it be fruitful to a line and work with Black Separatists? by [deleted] in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 7 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 0 fun8 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

IRL, there’s a direct correlation between how LARPy and useless a Nationalist group is and their public advocacy of this. Why?

  • Big reason is it doesn’t reflect how power works. We have the best funded, most high tech, heaviest manpower system in the world against us, even when we are utterly pacifistic. The people against us could have Federal law enforcement raid your house for frivolous charges or print millions of dollars with no backing.

Having a BBQ with some costumed clowns that aren’t even at least OUR costumed clowns is about as far from a solution as it gets. Black nationalists are beyond irrelevant to the clash of world powers that’s going to happen over this century. I’d rather we sent a care package to every computer programmer in the country to try to win their hearts.

Drawing lines on a map isn’t real, so how we’d divide America up is silly talk without tens of millions of us. We might as well declare Thailand our ethnostate, it’ll never get implemented.

  • Any black nationalist group associated with white backers loses credibility. Any group we’d try to co-opt would get laughed out.

The closest thing to a white co-opting of a BN group to succeed was Scientology basically forming a strategic partnership with the Nation of Islam to push courses on their members. This is basically cult leaders uniting to rip off their flock.

Rockwell did have a photo-op with NOI, if that’s what you’re thinking of as proof for a basis of this. He died shortly afterwards and Elijah Muhammad and Farrakhan both outlived him by many years, denouncing “racist whites” long after he was gone. Pretty dismal outcome.

  • We don’t need more black Republican “Democrats are raaacist” junk. It’s only going to drag us down. I don’t care about Chicago or the similar city I left, in fact I hope they’re crap because they’re filled with crappy people. I care about where I live.

Black nationalist biographies are good sources perhaps for role models in leadership and that’s it.

Matt Hale is a political prisoner and everyone knows it. He turns 49 in solitary confinement this month. by Mr9to5 in debatealtright

Read the part of his Wikipedia page on the undercover sting that resulted in the arrest. Even through Wikipedia, you can pick up how strained it is. Alan Dershowitz even apparently called bullshit on it.

Matt was a LARP-y but brilliant movement leader. He was legally harassed on a number of fronts, including being denied a law license for “unfit character.” They couldn’t get him to fall for a number of legal traps, so the FBI sent an undercover infiltrator to befriend him. It took around a year but they gathered enough out of context quotes to imply he wanted to kill a judge over legal woes. I say imply because when you look at it, he said don’t harm anyone a million times. They sentenced him to 40 years in prison when he was barely 30. Then, they put him in solitary confinement for “safety.” We must never forget his story.

How Reddit Radicalizes The Left And Encourages Political Violence by xoenix in MeanwhileOnReddit

I almost view their violence shitposting as comedy at this point because they are so stirred up and disoriented by their own misinformation. There’s about one half assed “bash the fash” type of post in my local area subreddit a week. Well, by the time they misdirect themselves the wrong way about 10 times, they aren’t bashing anything. They’ll decide some alternative health person who isn’t even political is the fash over some Covid vax type of statement. Then someone with a mean bumper sticker that flipped them off in traffic. Then, a church. A few months ago, someone asserted they heard a racist joke about Asians from a random other customer at a driving range and people suggested everything from finding the mean joker to harassing the driving range with mean phone calls to calling the police and “reporting felony racist activity,” which isn’t even a thing. They are dumber than I ever imagined. Meanwhile, in this area, there are literally some open WNs, Birchers and the like that have been around for ages that they would view as Satan but afaik haven’t had any issues with these buffoons.

Also, if you're going to get mad at a minority group, East Asians are objectively the worst choice.

Tell me you’re not in an area where whites compete with Asians without telling me you’re not in an area where whites compete with Asians. Asians empowered by their collectivist cultural identities and the ability to also use leftism selectively as an ideological weapon can make life miserable. They are like Jews-lite but with more numbers.

Not that it has much to do with this video but it’s worth stating.

I know for the most part, we’re not sympathetic to Reddit degeneracy but I thought this was a funny progression of Reddit, the nanny state. All the hard drug subreddits now have this warning. From what I can discern, it only shows if you log in on an account that has posted on pro-sobriety subreddits. I like to encourage young people not to drink or use on an alternate account.

I’ve never used hard drugs but sometimes mindlessly float the associated subreddits because I like things like true crime and outlaw stories and it’s kind of interesting to me to see the real thing. Apparently, if SAMHSA doesn’t save me, I’m doomed now.

Is getting a DNA test from Ancestry, 23andMe, etc a bad idea? by WatchOutThere in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I wouldn’t and I’ve thought of it before.

My feeing is that for the security risk, it isn’t telling us much. We know who we are, in terms of loyalty to a culture and in resistance to an oppressive, culture destroying paradigm. If someone did a DNA test on you after you were gone, would it matter to find out you’re English when you idolized German culture or even if you were surprisingly high genetically Jewish/African/Hispanic? We’re hopefully not LARPing here, our cause is important enough that it shouldn’t be changed by such possibilities.

The reason I went from being a liberal to joining the alt/dissident right by meatball4u in debatealtright

But I don’t think Jewish intelligence is the problem. Many Asian and Middle Eastern groups have high IQs. Many of these groups are also ethnocentric. They present job competition, sure. But that’s different.

The problem is Jewish culture fosters a very warped morality. I was pretty philo-semitic when I was young. I had to learn the hard way. Jews who’ve been bathed in Jewish culture - say from New York or the Jewish private school network - think a certain way. You’re going to get hurt by them if you don’t recognize it and put up your guard.

They are competitive to an extreme because their culture is highly materialistic. Simple and plain. No IQ comparisons, it’s about who can keep up with the Joneses. They have no qualms even with knocking each other down to get ahead. Consequently, they “fake good” all the time and that leads to all kinds of shady business behaviors.

This would be messed up enough but not unusual outside the West. Where it gets to be a problem is their overt hostility to WASP presenting people, even when those WASPs are clearly from the lower class. They will never forget the snub to their social climbing behaviors that historically came from Protestants and Catholic elites. Consequently, screwing anyone over who looks related to those elites is totally acceptable to them. This happens on a macro and micro scale left and right. It’s really the foundation of many things in this society that are disguised as something else. They alternate between paranoia and unwarranted lashing out.

You need to read up on ancient Jewish culture. None of this is new. It ultimately traces back to a stew of superstitious nonsense from a supremacist religion, not an IQ test comparison. The “Sages” of the Talmud thought they were better than their neighbors because they kept a Sabbath and their neighbors didn’t. Because they were circumcised and their neighbors weren’t. That mythical Moses was one of them and not a Roman.

Mizrachi Jews are supposed to have much lower IQs but have figured into many equally questionable events, such as the opium trade in China. It’s a reoccurring civilizational pattern that’s the product of the same civilization’s dysfunctional nature.

I mean, like it or not, that’s par the course for Europe.

But I also think it’s natural. For me, I’m Folkish and my redpill was realizing after a lifetime of people bashing Germans that most good things in my life came from Germanic countries. I’ve never left America but there’s nothing that fills me with more visceral rage than the constant attacks on Northern Europeans as a particularly central target of anti-white racism. To the Left, Germans and multicultural utopia are the ultimate battle between Evil and Good. I feel as strongly the same way but in opposite directions. The Northern European peoples with their love of science, philosophy and confederation governments that mix freedom and social stability are the embodiment of Good- multicultural society with it’s gutter culture, postmodernism and neoliberal oligarchy is the ultimate Evil. I know many put the concepts I put as Germanic into the concept of White- that’s just artificial to me. We might as well speak of Humanity. The European peoples naturally must confederate but how can I pretend I am fighting for a Hungarian’s church or an Italian Nationalist’s sense of heritage when he walks through Rome? They are hopefully saved in my struggle but they are theirs, not mine to pretend to own.

People’s families are more important than the abstract concept of their race, too. It’s neither unnatural nor in opposition to caring about race.

Honestly, half these guys people think are Feds are just people living their best life. I wouldn’t do what he does but when I was younger, this whole political scene was significantly more LARPy and there were plenty of people the denizens of the Internet now would guess were “Feds” that are still around, a few of whom are in prison (but proud and ready for the day they can be free to do activism again) - many, many more of whom are raising families and looking back and laughing at the wild fun they had, none of whom had people arrested near them or anything like that that would actually warrant a fedjacket.

Do you have any Jewish friends? by [deleted] in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I’ve unfortunately had enough Jewish friends to feel real pain about the way the world is. In my mid-20s I was burnt out on years of doing an ethnic leaning but still basically civic nationalist thing and decided to “broaden my horizons.” I moved to a major metro and lived in a fairly Jewish area. I even knew a fair amount of Orthodox Jews, rare in my native area.

Unfortunately, I got burned badly on a lot of these situations and had to learn things the hard way. I’d already known people who were into things like K Mac - but I wrote them off. I genuinely thought what Derbyshire called “the Jew thing” was a distraction from good dissident politics.

I don’t need to rehash details but a lot of things happened. Bad business dealings. Relationships where I genuinely helped people and then they were totally transactional with me (“I know we’re friends but what have you done for me lately?”) Attempts to flip on me with politically correct standards I knew they didn’t believe in themselves (“based Shapiro Jews” who were based when it served them but then tried to use the same things against me. LPT: Trust that the least.) It was a lot of very cowardly, messed up things.

I probably wouldn’t let my guard down again but I also wouldn’t with a lot of types of people. In this decadent society, a good majority of people are just shit anyways. I’m very cautious about who I let in.

Probably a targeted hit on that company for reasons we’ll never hear, executed by some special interest group to create a “discussion.” It will be used to justify some legislation they already have in mind down the road.

Some of the most draconian anti-discrimination rules in America surround housing because it was the first battleground after integration. People miss, for example, that one of the reasons David Lane was angry was his realtor license was revoked. There have been many attempts to harass Sam Dickson and others related to real estate investment. Several housing related professions, including realtors, have rules that your licenses can be revoked simply for stating the wrong views or joining the wrong group.

Do I believe them? Not for a damn minute. The scenario is too specific - black home owners, white stand in, perfectly executing the switch without people knowing - to not have been manipulated in some way.

Her opinions have been an open secret for a long time. She’s never hid her connection to Joseph Sobran, for example.

I think she recognizes she’s passed a point where overt is more effective than covert opinions.

Over time, I’ve just learned to check certain Israeli or highly religious Jewish media. If a news outlet is brazen in asking only “what is good for the Jews?” in a totally selfish, one sided way, you can get real answers. You’d be shocked how many news outlets are set up just towards answering that online if you’ve only read mainstream media. Some of it is very shameless considering you’re supposed to feel bad to even notice literally anyone thinks that way. I can’t even think of all of them and yet you’re supposed to be the bigoted one to even think they exist.

How do you define "cancel culture"?

I think it’s a lame conservative way of talking about censorship without talking about total media control and the power structure behind why things are being censored. I posted this rant the other day somewhere else, thought it may add to the discussion:

“I’ve always hated the term “cancel culture” and I think I can finally articulate why. The problem isn’t that they canceled a character on a show. The problem is they’re at WAR with YOU! They don’t want you thinking your own thoughts about the hell they’ve created in our society. They don’t want your children to think like you, they barely even tolerate that you exist. It’s not what’s on TV that matters, it’s what happens in your life. You are a target to them whether you like or not, to hell with a fictional character!”

But this wasn’t some benevolent AmRen la la land utopia. They’d often be the bullies, talk about how white kids like me were “inferior” and taunting us about something they had that we didn’t. They were always super materialistic and thought we gave a fuck about their bling or some bullshit. Some became involved in gangs and were really no better than black or brown.

In school, they taught us about “the boat people” like it was slavery and we should feel bad about it, even though literal Communism caused the problem. Meanwhile, Vietnamese particularly took over many of the areas that used to be predominantly white, planting their Southern Vietnam flag that the MAGAtards love so much like a conquering army wherever white people weren’t anymore. Those areas became dens of massage parlors and gambling and even look like shit on the street level.

I can’t even count the number of Vietnamese and Chinese who’ve tried to play political games against me or outright scam me at jobs. Dudes think they’re Sun Tzu when they couldn’t even talk themselves out of a parking ticket. The new generation is much more Americanized but the old generation tries to play the based card sometimes. They’re as fucking “based” as Ben Shapiro - only for themselves and ready to gay op on you always.

Videos on Hitler and WW2 Germany by [deleted] in debatealtright

I personally really enjoyed Carolyn Yeager’s old podcasts, particularly the Heretic’s Hour and Hitler’s Table Talks shows. You can find them on the radio archive on her page. I really feel she’s generally realistic and truthful about what the NS worldview is and how people really lived.

Prussian Socialism on The Right Stuff network is kind of a more current equivalent. I also like Volkish.org’s podcast Manifest Destiny, though (sadly) they make less episodes. I know you didn’t mention podcasts but I love podcasts. All three shows cover material that is from outside that period as well but relate it back to it.

A couple really easy reads I enjoyed when I first was starting out that you can find on Archive.org are:

Ich Kampfe (a Party ideology manual)

Faith and Action (Hitler Youth manual)

This looks like an interrogation room scene where they are determining if Ye is going to the gulag. But to make it fun and “American,” they gave Gavin a “if Satan was a used car salesman” suit to wear while conducting the interrogation.

Do you getting a college education is a good thing? by 8thmonitor in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I think there’s a lot of wishful thinking on the Right about opting out of college, especially in the Libertarian American Right. The truth is you really have to have a concrete plan to opt out of college and have it work in a way where you can support a family. Same if you go to college, too. But guys will be like “ahh but I’ll learn a trade” or “I’m going to leave Commie Seattle where I have roots and move to Montana with no connections to live the Trad life” - but then they never do it and end up all financially screwed up. I know solid guys who are things like pipefitters and make good money- but I’d tell a kid who is 18 or 19 and wants to do that, you got to hang out with guys who can get you in there right now, so you can place in a year. Networking is maybe more important when you’re starting blue collar than white collar. Maybe even certifications are more important when you’re blue collar for a lot of things, too.

I literally spent college drawing crucified skinheads in my notebook and skipping class to read books by Gobineau you couldn’t check out in the library. I was considered a high performing student and it literally consisted of me reading 10-20 pages a class a week and regurgitating reformulated ideas. I hate lectures because I saw no point because I actually read what they were just reading slowly on a PowerPoint. Nonetheless, I couldn’t do what I do today without a degree and ironically, I got my degree heavily subsidized under a program for “minority students” that included a clause that very low income (white) students could also qualify. It’s stupid as heck but people get too caught up in ambiguity - a lot of things are ambiguous and weird under this system because it’s very artificial but if you see a net advantage to doing something, hey, I did it. My only regret is I wish I’d been in a program focused on hard skills, like accounting or computer science. I unfortunately opted for a soft skill major but made it work. And like the blue collar path, it always has to come back to developing some kind of vision a program can’t give you.

What kind of state do you think America would be in if this was the list of Presidents since 1960? by Trump77 in debatealtright

Greek court rules Golden Dawn party criminal organization by [deleted] in debatealtright

Indifferent, even if true. No one in a crisis cares about a “suit and tie” image. It would be nice if groups like Golden Dawn wouldn’t get into military costumes and crap that bring the hammer down - but I’ll take setting up soup kitchens, morale building group activities, hardline ideological clarity and the ability to mobilize masses over “optics” any day.

I mean, Greece circa 2009 was about as close to the Weimar Republic as it gets. Even worse when you consider the fact it was never as prosperous as pre-war Germany. It obviously wasn’t the greatest thing - but they also did have seats in government and it did take this long for it to be a problem. Caveman social conditions don’t exactly discourage being a caveman.

Trump tests positive for covid by send_nasty_stuff in debatealtright

My suspicion from the timing is it’s some kind of “chess move,” perhaps he thinks he can demonstrate the virus is not deadly or a treatment works before the election.

Ironically, I wouldn’t be surprised if he already had it and it was covered up for national security reasons months ago. Too many prominent people around him have it, I’ve always been skeptical that he didn’t just have a mild case already.

What do you think would happen in the next four years if Trump wins re-election, and what would happen if Biden wins? by WhiteZealot in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

If Trump wins, Israel is going to, like, triple in size as he gives them random pieces of land that we suddenly “wanted them to have all along.” Also, everything else will probably melt down from the cultural panic on all sides.

If Biden wins, it’s just going to be the Obama years but dumber, reflecting the drop in IQ from brain damage over another decade of decline.

Either way, we will be more banned than ever - but probably with low efficacy, as we will have even less to lose than now...

What are your thoughts on a white hispanic alliance? by send_nasty_stuff in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Above is weird Internet nonsense.

It is kind of a strange thing because the criminal element in my area, the Western US, operates this way. Hispanic and white prison gangs are allies. This has kind of watered down to the street, with many skins and Odinists in my area allowing partially Hispanic heritage and most of the Latino gangs allowing white members. Very distantly removed, I have about as many “fashy” Mexican friends as white advocate friends, through stuff like Oi!

I still don’t believe in it as a “goal.” If American goes full metzizo and some hybrid thing emerges as a next best thing, it’s fine, whatever. But it’s pretty much a guaranteed step down. Yeah, there’s white chollos and Mexican skins but is anyone reading the Western canon? Are “nerdy” white boys having any less of a hard time than the would with blacks? Does it sound like a path to being scientific innovators who can compete with China? No, it’s no bueno.

What term best describes your ideology, and why? by VarangianRasputin in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I’m an American but I’ve always thought of myself in terms of the paradigms of British Nationalism. I like speaking in terms of analogous organizations because speaking of only ideals can be ambiguous. I started out as someone who would have supported an American version of BNP (ie a populist nationalist), spent many years as a radical traditionalist elitist after growing frustrated with the limitations of populism - someone who would’ve liked to participate in something akin to NF Political Soldier. Now, I’m more of a basic 3P type person, perhaps interchangeable with an NF member or an NPD member in Germany. I know my beliefs probably can’t win here but I wouldn’t mind networking with similar people to try to change things at the local level. The key parts of my worldview are the “Social” aspect, solidarity with people I consider like me and the Discipline or “Elitism” aspect, wanting my People to hammer away at themselves to be the best. I consider this the best synthesis of the radical traditionalist and other cadre models and the various Social world views, Left and Right.

The only political group I’ve belonged to has been the Constitution Party but I get the impression they are easing off immigration and going more libertarian, I don’t like it at all. Typical American garbage.

How do you engage with the concept of "traditional masculinity"? by [deleted] in debatealtright

[–]Mr9to5 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Well, I’d say the essence of manhood distilled down is aiming for victory and camaraderie. How that comes out depends on your social situation. How you’re a man’s man depends on the world you live in. I do great when socializing with salespeople because I think like a salesperson. That’s how I hunt and those are my fellow hunters. I have a working class-ish background and early on, equated the right-wing with defending those roots. I sometimes ended up in rooms with bikers or skins. I had little in common with them - they don’t hunt how I hunt for their food. What they get in credibility from tattoos, I get from credentials and building rapport. Your manhood has a lot to do with how you eat and a lot of the time people get insecure when they’re comparing apples and oranges.

The other part of being a man is knowing how to fight and how to say f’ it. I live austerely so I don’t need much and I know how to argue and how to fight. I don’t look like much but that only gives you an element of surprise over people :)

I always take it back to the immediate control level and then work it as hard as I can.

Realize your existence is first and foremost biological. Eat a simple, monk-like healthy diet. I usually eat overnight oats, one bean and rice dish and then some floating not-unhealthy protein based meal with vegetables daily.

Quit alcohol and intoxicants. If it’s hard, go to AA or SMART, even if “you’re not that bad.” You will meet young people operating in the kind of social community we lost when people stopped going to church. Some of them will be shitty but the majority are good, some are very good but had coping issues. You can sponsor our people of all functioning levels to be radically better than they would’ve been.

When Covid dies down, consider doing something like training for a 5 or 10k. Aerobic fitness is good and it’s a social opportunity. Try to do most of your training on a treadmill to protect your joints and maybe stick to doing it seasonally. You could practice organizing by organizing a team with your friends. If you enjoy weightlifting, that’s even better.

Meditate to have a clear mind. Pick up a few books on cognitive therapy to learn to straighten out self-upsetting thinking and turn it into goal directed thinking. Feeling Good by David Burns is a good basic one. Always try to convert things that upset you into goals to change them.

Read Might is Right (especially the chapter on money, I think chapter 5) multiple times. How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World is libertarian but a good book, too. Definitely read the chapter on what government can and cannot do. Both are available for free online.

Beyond that, try to make friends who are similar and share stuff with them. Making them more effective is easier than redpilling people.

I’m also pleased. I basically skipped most of 2016-2019 because everyone felt like a fedposter. It’s nice to pick things up and see maybe we’re reaching an internal equilibrium where we won’t be in our way so damn much.

Lol, the very concept of “quality mods.” I know, there’s good and bad mods but it shows what utter shit Reddit is now - people want quality posts, quality advice, enjoyable content, a good laugh - now everything is focused on moderation and who has the control. Hallmark of a fun website, you can LARP the experience of trying to get around Soviet censorship.

I was surprised to be reminded yesterday that Reddit wants an IPO. At this point, it’s basically woke urban liberal Yahoo Answers, with pictures and porn. The magic, if you even want to call the old crap that, is long gone.

I was thinking today that even ChatGPT in some ways displaces it - as useless as ChatGPT is in many ways, it won’t instantly delete your more mundane questions for “violating tEh rules” or reply with snarky gatekeeping. Since normal human beings only use Reddit for ELI5 style questions, that’s a serious shift.

How accurate are stats saying "5%" of people aged 18-29 in the US are "transgender or non-binary"? Could it be demoralization propaganda? by VacaLeitera767 in debatealtright

Based on my experience with trying to use dating sites in a red area (albeit one that is quickly turning purple), it seems surprisingly common. I am curious how much these apps filter to actively promote it. There seems to be endless left-wing young women who call themselves non-binary, asexual, bi or queer and tbh, I can’t even tell if their sexuality is that different from straight because they’ve been trained to make a bigger deal of these labels than they deserve.

I can’t say I know anyone directly who is trans but my normie friends know people who are. This was true 15 years ago too and I don’t particularly believe it’s changed, it’s just been made a big deal by the media.

I distrust right-wing groups that want it to be the main thing because it seems to be the main way to distract from race right now.

This is why a sane society doesn’t just take the Abbie Hoffman/Crimethinc line about shoplifting - that repeat shoplifting is just a victimless expropriation from capitalists. Repeat shoplifting opens the door to something as simple as a shove happening. A shove can lead to a fatal injury even with a healthy person if they fall on the spine the wrong way. But disproportionately, the victim will be someone vulnerable working a job like that, like this elderly man or perhaps a pregnant woman.

All I can say is they don’t get within arm reach of me. Can’t blame others for not thinking about it that way but hopefully, we all do.
