OWEN BENJAMIN AND THE BEAR CULT

    As regular readers know, we here at this blog are ardent foes of false cults. Most cults are truly dangerous for a variety of reasons. At bottom, they are all enemies of Civilization. Western Civilization is predicated on Christianity, which in turn has cultural roots in many ancient societies. This is why we often say here that Western Liberalism and Cults are the two greatest threats to Western Civilization. 

   Since it's been a slow news week, with nothing much really happening other than the Left trying vainly to resuscitate the 'Russiagate' Hoax; and Neocons getting humiliated by Iran; and of course the now-regular mass-shooting or two---all of which have become fairly commonplace---we spent the week researching a couple of new cultish movements which our readers have brought to our attention. The first is a homegrown 'Bear Cult' apparently so-called after its founder's totem-animal. The second---we kid you not---is a 'Bleach Cult'. Seriously: the followers of the second group drink bleach as a religious rite. That's also a cult which originated in America, but it's been causing a lot of problems in Africa recently. We're going to write about the first one today: anyone interested in learning more about the second can check out our friend Myles Power's vlog on Youtube. Power has done an excellent and comprehensive series exposing the Bleach Cult and some of their truly dangerous practices.

   What we called the Bear Cult centers around a character from the Tacoma area named Owen Benjamin. Of course, Benjamin denies that he leads a cult, but all of the unmistakable signs are present. I'd heard of Owen Benjamin before in connection with the Red Pills; especially via Vox Day and Roosh Valizadeh. He shares many common beliefs with the Red Pills---especially in his hatred for Jews and women and his promulgation of some very far-out Conspiracy Theories. He's a firm believer in the whole Game/PUA male-archetype theories and, like Vox Day, has carved out a special niche for himself in the male hierarchy: i.e. that of 'Sigma', which apparently is the top/uber Alpha. 



   In many ways, Owen Benjamin seems to be a younger version of Vox Day. Both were mediocre media figures who built up fanatically loyal followings by leaving the mainstream and playing the Victim Card. Both clearly believe that they were entitled to greater fame and have a deep envy of those more successful. In fact, they even envy some of the same people: Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan, and Ben Shapiro, for example. They both also apparently share the same proclivity for getting kicked out of respectable communities. Even Alex Jones recently banned Benjamin from his show for being too extremist. Among his other vices, Benjamin is a bully who mistreats his wife, is a drunken sot, beats dogs, and viciously attacks anyone who even slightly disagrees with him. He justifies all of this behavior with a veneer of fake Christianity. 

   Some may say that Owen Benjamin sounds like a fairly typical Red Pill; but there is a darker side yet to this man. He doesn't advocate violence in a tongue-and-cheek, plausibly-deniable sort of way that other Red Pills do. His rage, as it comes across on his videos is visceral and there are recurring themes referencing death, killing, and general violence. He recently did a video talking about his recent fantasies of killing his father. In another video, that's since been pulled, he (falsely) accused one his critics of stalking him and threatened him with violent death. And worse still, he encourages his fanatical disciples to dox and go after his enemies. On one video which has since been deleted from Youtube, Benjamin talks about "weeding out the weak" and considering "who needs to die." Someone brought up the question as to whether or not he was calling for violence, to which Benjamin replied "Not yet, but I will...so you might want to gear up." 

    It's also quite troubling that Benjamin frequently accuses his enemies of being wizards, or Satanists. Granted, in some cases it may be that they are; but his obvious intent and purpose here is to dehumanize them metaphorically so that killing one would not be seen as actual murder. Of the Jews, incidentally, Benjamin said: “Finally, you have a tribe of people that goes from dog to dog just getting blood. I didn’t just compare them to fleas. Yes, I did.”

   His cultish followers apparently have taken up the idea of starting up their own town. And if anyone doubts that these fanatics worship Owen Benjamin, just look at a few reviews of one of his recent podcasts:



    


   

       Owen Benjamin's Christianity, I think can be well summed up by one of his drunken, profanity-laced outbursts against the Church in which he accuses Pope Francis and the Jesuit Order of running some Homosexual Glee-Club. {Warning: this link might not be suitable for all audience members}. So much for another fraud undermining the efforts of good Christians and Conservatives everywhere.

  1. What a brilliant critique.

    Normally, we delete posts like this for violating our rules on civility; but I'm going to let yours stand to illustrate the deep intellectual acumen of Big Bear's cubs.

  2. Yeah, it's a bit cultish. I don't call myself a bear, because if anything sounds gay, that does. Owen however is actually quite smart and knowledgeable on history. I have learned a lot from him and I value his perspective.

  3. Regardless of their persona, anyone calling out the fake media and the Hollywood cess pool these days is going to have an audience. One of the most brilliant moves Owen Benjamin made was to expose fake Jewish conservative commentators. Regardless of any apparent warts or defects, Owen's audience is destined to expand and grow world wide. People are just so tired of being fed Globalist bull shit. By attacking people like Owen you only identify yourself as a proponent of Global Homo. You may want to reconsider your position.
