WOKE GOP CAVES ON IMMIGRATION AND NATIONAL SERVICE

        Never fear, loyal Republican voters! The now-woke GOP at long last has been addressing the now obvious problems with demographics, specifically those of our youth and educational issues. Besides taking up some very progressive positions on hate speech and co-opting Cancel Culture to replace the Left-Wing agenda in education with their own propaganda organs. None of this will do anything whatsoever to solve the current crisis, but it makes for good clickbait and online flame-wars.


     This week our illustrious Congress passed a Bill mandating draft registration and, to be Politically-Correct, this new proposal would include women for the first time ever. The Neocons have been playing footsie with this idea for a long time. With Republican collusion, the Clinton Co-Presidency began attacking the Culture of Toxic Masculinity in the Pentagon starting circa 1992 and began shoehorning more women into military positions. For awhile in the 1990s, some Republicans protested this to the point where Bush Jr. promised to reverse these policies during the 2000 Election. Bush promptly reneged on the promise; in fact his Administration exceeded even the Clintons in promoting Feminist takeovers of traditionally male positions and it hasn't been an issue among 'Conservative' politicians since. 

    Mandatory National Public Service will be the next step, of course. The concept has been applied in Totalitarian Regimes historically and has been a dream of kindred spirits of these governments here too for a long time. Many public schools have had a mandated 'community service' requirement for graduation (just like jails); and 'Conservatives' have never had any major objection to it. Given the increasingly authoritarian bent of the postmodern American Right, and their general feeling that any problem can be solved with a bludgeon, the idea is appealing to a certain type. Most Millennials and younger are prime candidates for such a program; young Americans today have been conditioned very extensively towards fatalistically accepting authority.

    Of course, due to the influence of certain ethnic groups (because Conservatives don't believe in reverse discrimination), those with 'dual-nationalities' are exempt from mandatory registration. So are immigrants on H1B work visas. Just coincidentally, the Trump Campaign yesterday clarified its position on H1B visas.


     Frankly, I'm not certain why any foreign graduate would want to stay here when going back to their home country radically increases their chances of actually finding meaningful work; but we digress. Trump has already made promises to expand the Police State exponentially to round up and deport migrant workers whom the Conservative-Industrial Complex are convinced are 'invading' the country; but foreign lobbyists and workers useful to Wall Street get a free pass. Big Tech is one of the major beneficiaries of the H1B Program, and we're certain that Trump's evolved position on the issue and the fat donation he got from a billionaire bankster who gives loans to Big Tech yesterday was also just coincidental timing. 

    Speaking for myself, my idea of Making America Great Again doesn't see the Bush Years as the benchmark of American greatness. In fact, the Bush Machine/Neocon hijacking of the Conservative Movement after Reagan's reforms reversed all of our positive gains and accelerated our decline. Yet, this is where the Postmodern Right---which is really nowadays nothing more than the reactionary Left---wants to take us.

US AT BOTTOM (AGAIN) IN MATERNAL MORTALITY RATES

     Here in the Prozac Nation, outbreaks of mass-insanity are becoming increasingly common, as they historically do when a society is breaking down. These outbursts usually manifest themselves around some controversial issue which wouldn't even be a matter of debate in a sane society, while underlying or more serious issues get ignored but these absurdities are always dignified with some high-sounding stock phrase to give the illusion of importance.

    Last week, for example, the rage was all about the Donald Trump and Hunter Biden trials while the whole issue of egregious dysfunction in our Legal System was swept under the rug. This week, women's issues have resurfaced, the controversy surrounding two (so far) beauty pageants 'won' by contestants who---to put it mildly---weren't quite what we'd normally expect. The decisions obviously were made to incite controversy a make a statement because no rational person would justify either of them in any other way. 

   The State of Maryland decided that Gender Dysphoria was a positive role model for girls; while the State of Alabama stressed Morbid Obesity as a desirable feminine goal. Actually, I'm not sure why any young woman would want to participate in these events after these clown-shows, but outlets for positive femininity are becoming about as closed as their masculine counterparts these days. It's a common misconception in the Manosphere that women are valued more than men in our society, but this is an illusion based on a faulty perspective. Women are worth nothing in our society: men are worth less than nothing and this actually is the only difference. 

    As proof of this, let's look at a story which went ignored behind all of the online flame-wars, gender-bending, and general stupidity. For the third straight year, the US retains last place among developed nations in its maternal mortality rate. In fact, the percentage of mothers dying in childbirth is nearly twice as high as Chile, which is second-worst among the 37 OECD nations. 

   This isn't a phenomenon which only happened last week: the numbers have been crashing throughout the entire 21st Century, though neither our social influencers nor the political class seem to take much interest in it. In the year 2000---which had already seen some decline in previous years, the maternal mortality rate in America stood at 9.8 per 100,000 births; today that number is 22.8. In 2021, the numbers had hit as high as 32.9: but even since then, the rates of infertility and infant mortality rates have climbed which probably account for the modest decline. Native-born Americans are not even reproducing at replacement levels

    The study also showed an interesting statistic; 2/3 of maternal mortality happens postpartum---within a year---of giving birth. Those are causes of death referred to as complications of pregnancy. While it is true that addictions, obesity, and the generally poor condition of American health is causing much of the problem, poor postnatal care is also a contributing factor. 

    The reason behind this likely has to do with the structure of American healthcare. Obamacare essentially turned over the system to Big Pharma and the Insurance Cartels---which had already amassed considerable power over it under the Neocon policy of outsourcing social services and favoring monopolistic practices. Policies on pregnancy and childbirth are today centered on the most cost-effective options and patients are merely commodities. Postnatal care doesn't involve the subsidies or medical expenses that natal care does, and the latter already is done as cheaply as possible. As proof of this, it should be noted that the highest rates of both maternal and infant mortality are in so-called Red States where Crony-Capitalist control over healthcare is more pronounced.

    Regardless of the policy reasons however, it's sadly obvious that a culture which considers access to abortion and homo 'marriage' as sacred human rights isn't likely to concern itself much over things like maternal or infant mortality rates. Nor will an economic system which is essentially dehumanizing put much value on things like the miracle of birth. So our culture will probably go on fighting over challenging traditional gender stereotypes while things like femininity and motherhood continue to decline.

RED PILL ACOLYTE JAILED IN NYC ATTACKS

      Last week, police in New York City caught up with the perpetrator of at least some recent random attacks on women. Daquan Armstead, aged 31, of the Lower East Side Manhattan, reportedly was rather amazed that the authorities should take his past-time of walking up to ladies and punching them in the head so seriously“It's different with men,” Armstead allegedly told cops, the DA’s office confirmed. “They don't test you like women do. You have to check women sometimes.” 

         

    Those who follow the near-cult like activities of a certain faction of the Manosphere probably recognize at once that statements about women testing men and having to check women sometimes are stock-phrases regularly used by the groups loosely defined as 'Red Pills': PUAs, MGTOW, Game-Planners, Alt-RINOs, etc. So where do we suppose that Amstead picked up such ideas? 

    It could very well be because a number of these characters have been getting attention lately from top media figures. A few years ago, a number of Red Pill blogs collapsed after exposures of corruption and various acts of violence connected with their readership began occurring on a regular basis. Since the beginning of this decade, a few of the old-school diehards like Vox Day and Rollo Tomassi and new crop of grifters raised on their poisonous ideologies have re-emerged on social media and video programs. Despite, by their own admissions, being hostile to traditional Conservatism, they've been embraced by our new and very woke breed of Conservatives. Andrew Tate, Steve Sailer, Doug Wilson, the late Gonzalo Lira (aka Coach Red Pill), Douglas Mackey (aka Ricky Vaughn) have all been praised by Tucker Carlson---who should know better---while a few other cretins like Jack Murphy and Anthime Gionet (aka Baked Alaska, among other aliases) have been turning up on allegedly Christian and Conservative websites and white-washed of all of their foul deeds and words. 

   While the Red Pill philosophy recognizes a difference between genders, it rejects the traditional ideals of Compensation and Complimentarianism, and advocates instead a degraded and debased form of Male Supremacy which, if one analyzes it, is really nothing more than Radical Feminist anti-male stereotypes inverted by the Red Pills into a system of virtues. 


     Daquan Armstead isn't receiving the same martyr status among the Red Pills themselves as they usually bequeath upon violent actors within their movement. There are a number of White Supremacists in the Red Pill Cult too, and they tend to be a bit squeamish about praising a Black man, no matter how sympathetic he is to their beliefs. Likewise, the skunks in the Corporate Media have been downplaying Armstead's probable connection to the Red Pills for the same racialist reasons. Radicalized non-White males don't fit the Official Narrative. Racialist narratives and counter-narratives are, like the so-called 'Gender Wars,' part of the Strategy of Tension, and must follow a close script. 

    However, minus the White Supremacist nonsense, the Red Pill actually has a sizable following among American Black men. The reason for this is because our culture is highly anti-male and men of all races are marginalized and depreciated. American men are relegated to spending their most productive years in an atmosphere of chronic ennui of under-and unemployment and presented with a generally hopeless future. Suicides and addictions are rampant among American men of all races, and there are few to no positive outlets for us. 

    Some of the more vulnerable men seek a scapegoat; and the Red Pill Philosophy preys upon such vulnerabilities at a man's deepest source: his innate fear of insignificance both economically and sexually. The latent homosexuality and 'prosperity gospels' of the Red Pills scapegoat American women---who, by and large, are themselves victims of the same Strategy of Tension, although it manifests itself differently in Feminine Psychology. 


    Specimens like Daquan Armstead are not symptomatic of our society's failure to deal with mental illness, as the Corporate Media claims. He's a specimen of society's failure to live up to its supposed goals of freedom for every individual to live up to his highest potential. Characters like these are exactly what's produced in a society where 10% of the population holds 100% of the wealth and power. Mediaeval Europe---which had a similar balance of social power---was also characterized by outbreaks of random violence, sexual perversion, and mass-hysteria as well as widespread substance abuse. 

   'Taking the Red Pill' doesn't cure anything: it merely changes the symptoms. The root of America's problems is essentially a spiritual one: where people have forgotten the basic principle of our nation's founding that we are all equal under the authority of our Creator, and instead pursue selfishness and self-aggrandizement at the expense of others.

SOME FURTHER REFLECTIONS ON AMERICAN SPIRITUALITY

      While we don't mind discussion or debate here---and certainly don't mind calling out or exposing ideas or policies which are actually dangerous---I don't often get involved in online sniping-contests where personalities are brought up. This is for three reasons: one, it's distracting; two, I don't really care what online strangers think of me personally; and three, it doesn't serve any purpose. Fools will be fools; trolls will be trolls; and fanatics won't be convinced by evidence or reason anyway. 

    Part of our problem as a culture is that we've become like one big grown-up version of Middle School. One is presumed to have to belong to the right clique or he doesn't belong at all. This is one reason why the Great Reset has so many followers: everybody wishes they could have Big Daddy Government providing for and protecting them, while they're free to wallow with their comrades at pot-parties and engage in no-strings-attached sex. There are all sorts of similar movements in the West today; after all, "My dad can beat up your dad." The Whacko Left is the dominant clique in America, the Far Right makes up the second kind: they want Big Daddy to beat up the other side and be the big shots of the schoolyard themselves. 

    We've been through this before. The Incels and latent homos in the so-called Manosphere all agreed long ago that I promote Feminism because beating women and treating them like domesticated livestock doesn't seem to be a good way to manage a relationship. We've published about three dozen articles here against Radical Feminism, but that doesn't shake their beliefs. The online troll community known as Internet Sleuths decided that our publicizing a few unsolved crimes here was self-promotion and grandstanding---the fact that our blog is anonymous and not monetized never seemed to shake that belief. And so on...

   So, it appears that the latest clique on the scene is the Churchian Right. Despite around 20 or articles published here over the years condemning anti-Semitism, they've concluded that I'm an anti-Semite anyway for not looking the other way at a rogue Regime in Tel Aviv's Crimes Against Humanity. Heck, I even supported Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the Israeli capital because it seemed at the time that such a move would solidify the two-State solution in Palestine. 

   These people have even gone so far as to accuse our blog of being in the service of Satan---as if we haven't published a single word here condemning or exposing Satanic cults. 


    "The Night Wind might want to discern, that perhaps, he may have been devoured, same as a number by percentage is growing in the USA." says one of these stellar thinkers, "In my opinion, when he chose the pseudonym The Night Wind, he gave everyone a clue of what may have devoured him." Maybe, again, if they paid more attention they would have gotten a clue that my taste for turn-of-the-century literature devoured me a lot more. 

   A little more discernment, in fact, might not hurt some on the Churchian Right. When you have a government that makes official statements like "there are no innocent civilians in Gaza;" and "even children are legitimate military targets;" and "the goal of the attacks is maximum destruction, not precision in the attacks;" and "the Palestinians are animals who need to be exterminated;" and "a nuclear attack on Gaza is the right option to destroy the people there,"---and hide behind the veneer of an established religion to say such blasphemies (and worse still, actually acting on them)---it ought to be a clear indication that we're dealing here with a cult and not any sort of ideology that any God would approve of. 

   In fact, things like anti-Semitism and militant Atheism grow out of exactly this kind of fusion of the political and spiritual. As we mentioned in a previous article, the Founders separated Church and State not only to keep a political church from becoming an instrument of state tyranny, but also to prevent fanatics from seizing the reins of power and imposing a religious tyranny themselves. It maybe argued (although it's no excuse) that Islamic Republics have political churches too; it may be so, but we should ask ourselves how much that form of government has contributed to anti-Moslem bigotry worldwide. 

   The problem with these Churchian Nationalists, Christian Zionists, or whatever they call themselves, is that they put the State in the place of God. The purpose of religion isn't to create a god in man's image; it's for men to re-create themselves in God's image. It's really an extension of the Prosperity Gospel applied on a communal level: the notion that Faith is about securing national wealth and prosperity rather than individuals taking responsibility for serving God in their own lives and creating a community that is based on shared spiritual values. This dissonance in their way of thinking is how they reconcile both inhuman barbarities on the Churchian Right and celebrating disgusting cultural atavisms on the Churchian Left. We need to get subservience to the Right and Left out of matters of Faith and start focusing on serving God instead.

APEC, ABORTION, AND OTHER FUN STUFF

      In a sort of bizarre extension of yesterday's news stories, the US Congress---which is supposedly controlled by the Republicans---mercifully ended its session early after rubber-stamping the Junta's budget proposal. At least they won't they won't be creating any more national embarrassments until after Thanksgiving. No sooner had the Budget passed, though, than some rather awkward details about Pentagon and Homeland Security projects were quietly slipped under the Media radar-screen. 

    Biden, however, managed to make a fool of himself for the second time at the APEC Summit. There were, however, a few positive developments: China agreed to start answering the Defense Department's phone calls again, which they stopped doing after Pelosi's Taiwan visit last year. The Junta agreed to set up a joint commission to address China's concern about repeated US Military infractions of their territorial waters. It's difficult to say whether that one will amount to much: Trump ordered the Navy to stop these provocations at one time, but the Pentagon ignored him. There were some token agreements on climate change and fighting the drug war too; but Xi no doubt is planning a quiet week in the Chinese countryside to recover his strength after the mentally exhausting ordeal of meeting with US politicians, CEOs, and the streets of San Francisco in general

    


   Just as we predicted yesterday too, the Corporate shills RNC 'experts' were dropping their prepared statements accusing Biden of being a sellout and a major weenie on China. The stand-up team of Thayer and Fanell---a pair of worthies of whom we've spoken before---stated that our Head-of-State's gaffes and diplomatic blunders are "worse than appeasement." An assertion in their article's opening paragraph is more instructive than it is informative:

  "Ironically, the risks should be all on Xi’s side as his increasing paranoia and purging of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has warped the Party and government, coupled with the collapse of the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) economy and other major social, demographic problems that place Xi in a uniquely vulnerable position." 

   This is instructive because it illustrates two fundamental problems with the Neocon narrative in general.

   1. It's a complete lie. Xi is not paranoid; there no Party purges going on; China's economy is currently stronger than ours; and there is no demographic crisis going on there---other than those occasionally fomented by outside religious cults like the Soros-backed Wahhabi Jihadists and Lamaist Tibetans, or the Koch-backed Moonies and Falun Gong cults, etc.  

  2. It's complete Projection. Our leadership is the one characterized by paranoia, purges and political witch-hunts, a collapsing economy (at least for the bottom 80%), and deliberately engineered racial and gender divisions. 

 This is a fairly typical outline of what passes for 'Conservative Opposition' position-papers these days. Accuse everyone else of doing what we do; blame everything on the Democrats, immigrants, or the Chinese; hold your noses and vote for the Neocons; and if you object that makes you a defeatist, a sellout, an unrealistic idealist, etc. 

   


   The Congressional hiatus and the winding-down of the APEC debacle have, however, given the Republican Establishment time to promote its new-found wokeness on the Abortion issue. There was a good article at LifeSite News today giving a run-down of some of the characters involved. The only critique that I would have of this article is its assumption that leading Conservatives are 'sellouts.' The fact that no one in the GOP leadership has done a thing to stop the murder of the unborn since the Ford Administration, all the while profiting off fetal-tissue trafficking and other abortion-racket scams and doing very little since Roe was overturned, should indicate that the GOP's solid Pro-Life position was nothing but marketing angle and a sales-pitch all along. 

   The article starts with our President-In-Exile who is leading polls in a quixotic attempt to regain the White House. While I firmly believe that Trump was deposed in an illegal coup in 2020, I must confess that I have had legitimate concerns that our dispossessed Chief Executive has suffered some kind of nervous breakdown since the Putsch. Aside from his position on Abortion, Trump has refused to disavow the disastrous Operation Warp Speed and made some dangerous and really borderline-psychotic policy statements on more than one occasion recently. 

   Trump's remarks came in response to Ron DeSantis' allegedly hardline Pro-Life statements, although Ronnie-the-RINO himself hasn't been especially aggressive about outlawing the safe and legal procedure in his own state, Whacko Left histrionics to the contrary. 

   Kari Lake---who like DeSantis thrives on Publicity Stunts---and Neocon frauds Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter have shown their true colors as well. Though they weren't mentioned in the article, WEF Young Global Leaders and GOP presidential candidates Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy are taking the pro-life but not judgemental about personal choices approach. Ramaswamy hasn't made a detailed position yet, but his ties to Big Pharma and the Abortion Racketeers is self-explanatory. Chris Christie, like DeSantis, is generally fine with a so-called '15 week law' which still kills babies and keeps profits flowing to Big Pharma and the Biochemical Cartels, but can be sold as 'Pro-Life.' 

   Unfortunately, human life has become another commodity in the United States. Babies can't vote or donate to political lobbies while narcissistic women and opportunistic men can and do; so we know whose interests the Political Class is going to support. The Crown of Motherhood and the Miracle of Birth are not marketable concepts these days. If anyone doubts this, it would instructive to see a typical contract issued by any one of the major Insurance Cartels. There's plenty of coverage for Abortion Clinics---Fertility Clinics, not so much. Given the Cartels' influence in the Beltway, that's not liable to change any time soon.

SOME REMARKS ON THE MAINE SHOOTING

      The news was breaking all night about the latest mass-murder, this time in New England around the vicinity of Lewiston, Maine. Like a lot of other towns in this area, Lewiston was once a major industrial center (textiles), which saw its Blue-Collar base eroded by Corporate outsourcing many years ago, and today is a rather gentrified community with few economic opportunities and substandard schools. Those of us who grew up in just about any Northern State east of the Mississippi know this type of town well: some very nice older homes, well-kept parks and cemeteries, boarded-up factories, railroad crossings that haven't seen a train in 20 years, a few chain-stores and gas-stations, and a conspicuous absence of young people and families. No matter where one goes in towns like these, one gets the sense that its better days are long behind it. 

    The suspect or "person of interest in the mass-casualty event," (as postmodern Media Newspeak expresses it), is a male military veteran with a history of mental health problems. He evidently planned this event in some detail and, as of this writing, has managed to elude the police. Not knowing many details, we don't wish to speculate; but if it follows the typical pattern of these kinds of crimes, he's likely either committed suicide or is lying low planning to carry out whatever Phase Two of whatever plan the voices in his head are telling him to do. Police are usually at a disadvantage because crazy people by definition are unpredictable; and police responses and tactics unfortunately are highly predictable. 

   There are two things common to nearly all of these cases, which our Media and Political Class never seem to want to talk about. The first is that they are invariably committed by relatively young men aged 15-45; and there is a high percentage of these men with connections to certain institutions, i.e., schools and the military. Connections to other institutions: government agencies, larger businesses, and churches also frequently appear. The Official Narrative focuses on peripheral things like lack of adequate mental health treatment, access to guns, drugs, and vague definitions of 'extremism;' but nobody discusses why this seems to be affecting only one particular demographic. Many women, the elderly, and others outside this demographic also have poor access to mental health treatment, have access to guns, abuse drugs, and hold extremist positions but they aren't flipping out and gunning down everything in sight. 

   The other interesting thing about male perpetrators in this demographic is that they cut across all racial, economic, and political lines. They're not exclusively lower Middle-Class White males as the Media likes to suggest. For example the Dallas Police massacre was carried out by a young Black man; the Virginia Tech shooting was perpetrated by a young Asian; the Pulse Nightclub shooting was committed by an immigrant. Eliot Rodger and the Aurora 'Joker' Theater shooter came from wealthy backgrounds. Nor are they exclusively Right-Wing extremists; the Oregon College shooting and the Las Vegas massacre were committed by flaming Leftists. 

    If we balance that against other statistics pertaining to young men, we find that among the same demographic, suicides are among the leading cause of death; and crime and addiction rates are very high. We've also noted here many times that younger men increasingly are not interested in fulfilling traditional community roles. Fewer are marrying; fewer are seeking long-term gainful employment, fewer are seeking higher education, and it's also noteworthy that community and political leadership are largely being filled by women or retirees these days.

   When we take those factors into account, we begin to see a clearer picture. Our culture is failing its young men. When men are continually depreciated and marginalized in a society, one of three things is bound to happen: either they drop out altogether and become pot-smoking, apathetic couch-potatoes; or they become limp-wristed, gender-fluid, and submissive; or that bottled-up rage boils over and they either die by their own hand or they grab a weapon and go out and take random others with them. Most are doing the first, but the other two make the headlines. However, it must be understood that those in the latter two categories are symptomatic of the bigger problem. 

  The problem is not guns. The worst mass-murder in America's history was committed by a team of young alienated Arab men who hijacked airliners at knife-point; and the second worst was carried out by a young alienated White man with a bomb. Knives, vehicles, explosives, and poisons have all been used in these attacks. The problem is not extremism. It's totally predictable that alienated people seek out cults and fringe political movements to join with others as alienated and as mentally unstable as they are. Drugs, sexual perversion, and untreated mental illness are likewise antisocial manifestations of alienated characters.

   The fact that institutions like schools and the military figure prominently in the backgrounds of these individuals ought not to be overlooked. Both of those institutions in particular have made it a point to purge themselves of so-called toxic masculinity. A man with any sense of dignity in either one of these institutions finds himself trapped in an existential paradox. Academic achievement or military accomplishments teach him what he is capable of and instills confidence---which is immediately shattered by constant preaching about how worthless he is to society, usually at the hands of some 'superior' who got their authority from anything but merit or achievement. One can imagine the resentment which must build up in some men. 

   Given that the same types of people who control the Official Media Narratives and Counter-Narratives are also people whose jobs aren't based on merit, they certainly aren't willing to discuss Male Alienation and its causes; hence this is another Third Rail Topic---one that isn't supposed to be touched. Besides, mass-violence plays into the Oligarchy's Strategy of Tension: tragedy and gratuitous violence keeps the masses divided and distracted while our so-called 'leadership' can grandstand, do photo-ops, virtue-signal, and pretend as though they're really doing anything. Meanwhile, such events will continue and continue to escalate, while Media ratings soar, the pundits pontificate, and the politicians capitalize---until the next 'crisis' comes along for further exploitation.

A RAY OF HOPE AMONG THE YOUNGER SET

      Yesterday, among the recommended channels I keep getting from Youtube, one vlog popped up titled The Male Loneliness Epidemic. The subject interested me, and the hostess was very cute😇 so I decided to hear what she had to say. I don't know much about her but she does have a large subscription base. From what she said, I get the impression that her politics are Left/Progressive: but to my amazement, this girl gets it.

   She actually covers much of what we've spoken of here: the commodification of relationships; the rise of the Red Pill/Alt Right, etc. On this last issue, she was especially prescient: "Twelve year-old white boys on Twitch are not being pulled into Fascism because of some Machiavellian desire to preserve and expand their privileges. It's because the Right talks to them and the Left doesn't." "It's all systemic issues and societal factors until the Left talks about men, then it's 'pull yourselves up by your bootstraps.'" And that's just a couple of the highlights. 

   All of which is true, and it's especially refreshing hearing it from a Leftist perspective. It's encouraging because it shows that younger women like this are waking up to the lie that they've been fed all of their lives. She likely grew up after the Clinton Co-Presidency's "Gender Wars" and where Feminist supremacy and toxic masculinity devolved into a New Normal. The Wall Street Oligarchs pulling the wires on the Clinton Administration of course cared nothing for women's rights anymore than the ones pulling the current Junta's wires do. In fact, radical Feminism served it's purpose by alienating and weakening men, eroding families, and depressing wages; and so it was quickly discarded in favor of the Homo Agenda once the Biden/Harris Junta was installed as the National Government. 

  Younger women like these are beginning to see through the Lie that is postmodern America. Growing up in a world where the State promoted 'female empowerment' and 'believe all women' and 'bring-your-daughters-to work days,' they came to maturity in a culture which suddenly found them as expendable as it had men before. Those of us who grew up in the 80s well recall that the Corporate bosses and politicians once praised the indispensability of the American working man. 


   Then, a few years later when the same wealthy business interests could outsource jobs to low-wage foreign labor pools and found that women could fill the new service and tech economy at 75% of what they paid men, all of us unemployed and unemployable men were tossed aside like so much garbage. Today's women are experiencing much the same thing. The Corporate interests are discarding them in favor of the Homo Agenda, by their own admission, because homosexuals and transsexuals have fewer familial concerns and tend to support their own communities. Thus, an 'LGBTQ-friendly' corporation has by definition a more loyal workforce.

   The bottom line here is something that the hostess actually observed: "Because feeling alienated under Capitalism apparently isn't a thing." The Corporate Cartels are not worried in the least about the quality of life of citizens or workers, a point that we and others have made here before about exactly what kind of sham 'democracy' we really live under. FYI, for anyone concerned about 'homo equality' that group will get discarded too; once these Corporate Oligarchs have perfected AI, robotics, and transhumanist technologies to the point that they don't need human workers so much. 

   "Don't get me wrong: the Republican Party will do nothing to help any of this" she quite truthfully asserts, "but the Right is, at least rhetorically, offering men something other than nothing or the eternal HR department...a lot of men simply feel that they have no purpose."

   That sums up the problem perfectly. As the late blogger Sir Guy said at his site What Women Never Hear pointed out that a man's greatest innate fear is insignificance. We've created a dysfunctional culture where insignificance is imposed on men from birth and wonder why they drop out, take drugs, or end in suicides; if not being lured into the cultish claws of charlatans a la Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, Vox Day, Doug Wilson, Rollo Tomassi, ad nauseum. 

  It's really a hopeful sign that an increasing number of young women are seeing through the hypocrisy of Neoliberalism without embracing the other extreme of Alt-RINO neofascism. Women aren't by nature community leaders, however their innate abilities as the future of the human race instinctively knows when a given society is headed on a dangerous course. 

  Check out her video on the link above, it's worth watching.

THE BIRTHRATE BOMB AND BUD LIGHT

    There was an interesting news story today from one of the Beltway's colonial outposts in East Asia. What passes for an actual government in South Korea today took some measures ostensibly to remedy that nation's desperately declining birthrates. South Korea's Ministry of Gender Equality and Family (if one can imagine a government agency with a name like that capable of doing anything positive for society) announced that it would begin providing a subsidy for 'reclusive youths aged 19-24' to reintegrate them into society. 

    The new policy will give people in this age group $500 per month, which supposedly will be spent on socializing. We'll see about that, but personally I'm a little skeptical.

    South Korea's birthrate is currently at 0.75 children per family: which is at the very bottom of the world. At this rate, the population of South Korea will drop 50% by the 22nd Century, while four times as many workers will be needed to support the aging population. 

   Academia Incorporated has come up with several---mostly bogus---explanations for the crisis in which South Korea currently finds itself. The reality is that very few countries have absorbed the degenerate cultural ethos of the Left to the degree with South Korea has. We've given them all of the blessings of American Exceptionalism. Things like:

   1. Widespread corruption throughout the upper levels of government and society which saps initiative and innovation;

  2. Vast wealth inequality that makes raising a family too expensive;

  3. Cutthroat competition and egoism that pushes relationships aside;

  4. Meaningless distraction throughout their media;

  5. Radical Feminism which has depreciated men and raised the average age of marriage to 29 for most women.

  6. Growing acceptance of the homo agenda and legalized abortion. 

  7. Declining fertility rates via regulatory capture of health agencies---

    This list could go on. The effects of our Cultural Imperialism are taking a toll over there. South Korea currently has even higher suicide rates than we have; a drug problem that has escalated in spite of severe laws; and among the highest rates of mental illness in Asia including depression and alcoholism. Obviously, this isn't going to be fixed with a $500 handout. 

   As further proof that the culture is the problem, consider that the (many) South Koreans who expatriate to other countries tend to be among the best of immigrant communities. Statistics among Asian immigrants in the US, for example, show that Koreans have low crime rates, are among the most economically productive, and have strong family structures with lower rates of divorce, abortion, and other problems that characterize the native-born here. Another interesting comparison is against the demographics of North Korea---which the jackals in the US Media portray as one of the grimmest societies on Earth.

  North Korea has a birthrate of 2.0 which, while not outstanding, is still sustainable and about twice what the non-immigrant birthrate in the US is. Divorce and abortion are both legal in North Korea, but apparently quite uncommon. For obvious reasons, getting a reliable assessment of how satisfied the population is with their quality of life there is impossible; but on the surface at least, they seem to be doing a bit better than the South. 

  While there is no actual law against homosexuality in North Korea, the perversion is not encouraged, and certainly not celebrated. The North Koreans, in fact, seem to place a high value on traditional families. Today there was a headline in their official news outlet announcing that this year's first triplets were born to a farm worker (who is apparently now something of a local hero) and his wife.


   
Contrast that with the American Media's headlines which currently include:

1. Ganging up on a Liberal Feminist who finds the terms birthing parent and person with a uterus degrading to women

2. Chimping out over a Manosphere 'influencer' who defends substituting trans-men for real women.

3. Listening to the Controlled Opposition explain why Bruce Jenner is a genuine social role model while Dylan Mulvaney is not.

4. Listening to the Controlled Opposition trying to pretend that a $5 billion loss for a corporation valued at $300 billion is some great victory in the culture war.

Et cetera, et cetera...


     It's also noteworthy that here in Exceptional America we're holding serious national debates over whether children should be gender-reassigned and whether drag performers should lead children's story-hours. Meanwhile, in the country that Rationalwiki describes as: "the most undemocratic and totalitarian state in existence, even worse than Saudi Arabia and only contested by ISIS at its peak...with possibly the world's worst human rights record," says this about the triplets' birth:

   "Immediately after being confirmed as a pregnant woman with triplets, the mother was admitted to the Pyongyang Maternity Center and received medical assistance from medical staff while receiving various nutritious foods and supplements. Thanks to the efforts of doctors and nurses here, the mother delivered her triplets (all sons) smoothly...The medical group warmly welcomed the triplets and their parents as they left the Pyongyang maternity center in good health, receiving gifts of kindness, including gold rings." 

   Earlier this year, we noted that another of South Korea's neighbors, China, had experienced a population decline. Instead of subsidizing Incels, the Chinese Government started off with an interesting project

    "A number of vocational colleges in China are offering students an extended Spring Break while encouraging them to experience nature and pursue love — a move that has been interpreted by some on Chinese social media as a bid to boost the country’s falling birth rate...

  "Nine colleges affiliated with the Fan Mei Education Group announced this year’s extended break from April 1 to 7, with the theme of enjoying flowers and falling in love, in a March 23rd press release."

  Meanwhile, here in the Prozac Nation, our schools and universities employ rigid speech codes and other forms of persecution against anyone showing interest in the opposite sex; while fanatically pushing a pro-homo agenda. Once again, Postmodern Neoliberal democracies are made to look like complete fools and utter failures by Communist regimes. We've come to the point where our own Radical Feminists and foreign Marxists make more sense than contemporary ideology on so-called 'gender identity.' 


  In the typical Manichean black-white either-or way that Americans approach any issue, I certainly don't want to come across as pro-Communist or pro-Feminist; but at certain point one has to admit that they are at least making an effort to deal with problems. When we've reached a point when Anna Kasparian is defending the dignity of women with more determination than all of the milquetoast Right combined; and North Korean and Chinese Commissars are coming up with better social policy than the democratic West---at this point it's time to admit that we have gone radically off-course

 There's nothing positive about authoritarian Party rule or gender politics---but that's the whole point. We can't even sink to the level of Marxist Feminists and do it right. Ask yourselves which political faction in the US even addresses---let alone actually having a plan for--- the demographic vise that we've put our young people into. The Whacko Left Wing thinks that lower birth rates, more abortions, fewer traditional families, and more gender dysphoria are good things. The Knee-Jerk Right wants to expel immigrants and have everyone working 80 hours a week for a bare minimum of housing and food---that somehow is supposed to increase the population. 

 All of these attempts from the contemporary Right to paint the Chinese and North Koreans as enemies of America and scapegoating immigrants are just a form of whitewashing the truth. These Communist States aren't getting better, we however, are getting worse; and our problems are entirely of our own making. We surrendered our schools and media to the Radical Left; we surrendered our economic base to globalists, we surrendered our families to 'the village' and now we're reaping what we've sown.

SCIENTISM AND GENDER NULLIFICATION, PART III

     The vermin in the Corporate Media---funded by the same interests as the Academic Mafia---have been ramping up the homo agenda since our last post. That was predictable, really. My suspicion was that all of the hoopla surrounding the trans debutante on Drew Barrymore's show last week was the beginning of an intensive media campaign. Once people get through their heads that the self-appointed 'Cultural Elites' are following a deliberate plan, guessing their next moves isn't difficult sometimes.

    US Today for example, nominated troon State Legislator Leigh Finke as Minnesota's Woman of the Year. Citing the xhe's “tenacity, bravery and leadership” (despite having only served since mid-January), the Media is once again demonstrating how all of their decades of supporting Feminism was nothing but a sham. Yesterday, the settled science was that women were the equal of---if not actually superior to---men; now it tells us that men magically can change their orientation and be superior to women again. Americans on the Left should be careful note here that the NWO crowd has fairly established history of throwing groups and peoples under the bus once they've served their purpose. They should, but they probably won't.

  Meanwhile, the National Hockey League got in the news again. The San Jose Sharks submitted both its players and fans to the humiliation ritual of a 'Pride Night' where the players donned 'rainbow' jerseys. It's probably not surprising that a sports league half-controlled by Tiananmen Trudeau and half-controlled by Wall Street would be a leader in Political Correctness. The Sharks, however, sent out some Twitter-feeds illustrating again the connection between modern Scientism and prehistoric beliefs in magic.

   “The muxe gender is a respected third gender in Zapotec cultures in Oaxaca, Mexico that has existed for centuries. Gunaa are those who were born as men but who identify as women & are attracted to men. The Nguii are those who were born as men and are attracted to other men.” Another read: “The Ninauposkitzipxpe were honored as a third gender in the North Peigan tribe of the Blackfoot Confederacy in northern Montana and Southern Alberta, Canada.”


     So what further proof do we need? If uncivilized and uneducated savages living out in the isolated parts of the world believe in a 'third gender' then obviously it must be so. 

   The whole idea of a 'third gender' is nothing new either. It was actually proposed and debated about a century ago by some radical academics mostly from the Weimar Republic. Mainstream psychology of the period so thoroughly discredited the theory that it had no currency until only recently when Scientific Consensus became available for purchase. Some of what Psychology had to offer as proof against the Third Gender Theory were:

   1. That the need to bond sexually with the opposite sex is an irreducible human instinct like the need to eat or breathe;

   2. Thousands of case studies demonstrating that same-sex attraction and gender dysphoria could be cured; and that the patients went on to lead normal lives;

  3. That even while engaged in the homosexual or dysphoric perversion, traditional gender roles were still being played out. Homosexual partners played the role of either a man or a woman in the relationship while dysphorics mimicked femininity.

  4. That as civilizations progress, gender differentiation becomes more; not less, pronounced

   In Postmodern Academia, mainstream Psychology has simply been cancelled, its proponents relegated to Dead White Male status. Academia Incorporated uses the utterly laughable excuse that Depth Psychology is unfalsifiable---in spite of the fact most of modern science is based upon theory. Granted, one can do experiments and even invent technologies based on these theories that mostly work; proving that established theories are---generally speaking---part accurate and part falsifiable. For example, we build aircraft based on the laws of Gravity, but we can't explain how a bumblebee flies with its insufficient mass-to-wing ratio. Psychoanalysis had a high cure rate: not 100%, but neither have organ transplants or other complicated medical procedures. To discredit a theory because there are occasional exceptions to it is another trait characteristic of the witch-doctors and less scientifically advanced ages.

   Most schools of psychology in the postmodern era have revived another theory that appeared about a century ago: Behaviorism. Behaviorism holds that there is no such thing as 'mind' as we understand it; but merely the mechanical functioning of body and brain. What we call behavior is merely conditioned reflexes which serve to enhance pleasure and pain. Of course, by this definition, 'pleasure and pain' are likewise relative terms, a product of the environment. 

  Behaviorism largely fell out of favor during the mid-20th Century. One would think that numerous cases of the effects of hallucinogenic drugs alone would show that mind and body are separate entities. That aside, Behaviorism could never explain two other things: abstract reasoning and the origins of supposed 'social conditioning.'

  To explain this point further, if gender attraction is nothing other than an artificial social construct, why does heterosexual attraction exist in the first place? It would seem that---according to this theory---that down throughout the course of human evolution, homosexuality should be mathematically at least as prevalent as heterosexuality. Likewise: in the case of transgenderism, how does it happen that something like 99% of cases involve males? Again, mathematically we should see about an even number of women transitioning to men. 

  Further, how does social conditioning account for standards of attractiveness? Freud demonstrated that in childhood, one's first standards of gender ideation comes from attraction to the parent of the opposite sex. Behaviorists seem to believe that development stops there. But as Piaget, Montessori and others proved that around the ages of 11-13 years, these children begin to develop the adult processes of abstract reasoning. In other words, they begin to apply independent thought to their choices among the opposite sex. Some, in fact, often choose partners from types from the exact opposite of their parents. 

 The practitioners of Scientism seem oblivious a common experience from everyday life: heterosexuals themselves often fall in love with others who do not conform to socially mainstream standards. 


    We all know of cases like this: attractive men and women who choose unattractive mates; people who choose lovers with significant age differences; respectable people choosing partners of very dubious reputations, and so on. The practitioners of Scientism might shudder at these and call them "inappropriate" but, of course, have no problem telling the rest of us that we need to be socially re-programmed to accept homosexuality and transgenderism as normative. This is where they fall into another contradiction between settled sciences: how can we say what is 'acceptable' and 'unacceptable' sexual behavior if social norms are merely a product of our reflexes? One cannot say that a given culture's norms are relative and products of the environment while trying to justify imposing or discouraging other social norms as right or wrong. In the case of the San Jose Sharks, they---if Scientism were consistent---would have just as much as case for declaring 'Sharia Night', making their players wear headscarves, and tweeting about the sexual norms of Saudi Arabia or tribes in Pakistan. 

   Another factor that the Behaviorists all seem to forget is that their own theory of reflexes are based physically on the actions of the central nervous system. Nerves in humans are a form of electrical energy; and everyone knows that electricity is based in the laws of polarity. Hence, in the Stimulus-Response paradigm, the stimulus is a need and the response an action to fulfill it and this is always based in a polarity. When we feel hunger, the sight of a McDonald's billboard stimulates us to eat; a newspaper story about a cannibal would disgust us and cause us to lose our appetite. Likewise when we feel a need for sex, an attractive person of the opposite sex is inviting; someone of the same sex is revolting. Homosexuality and cannibalism are about on the same plane of social development; which, incidentally both tribes mentioned in the NHL tweets were cannibalistic too. So much for their cultural equality. 

   A real question that should arise out of all of this is how we in America can fall for these kinds of delusions? It ought to be obvious to everyone that this push for homo acceptance is agenda-driven, destructive to civilization, and based on nothing but junk science and enforced at the point of a bayonet, but we tend to nod our heads, take more dope, and go with the flow.

SCIENTISM AND GENDER NULLIFICATION

     "There are more things in Heaven and Earth than ever dreamed of by your philosophies."      

     It isn't often that one hears a phrase from a film that stays with one forever; but the above quote from John Barrymore's 1931 classic Svengali always has for me. In fact---for those who've never seen it, the whole film runs a whole lot deeper than it appears on the surface (which becomes apparent as the story progresses); and I don't think that many critics or reviewers have ever fully understood it. Though not technically a 'horror film' as it's often been labelled, it did manage to scare the daylights of that generation's young women. It's rare that a film marketed to a general audience had that degree of a gender-specific reaction; though viewed through the lens of the-now officially-discredited subject of Feminine Psychology, we can easily see how the film reached some deep-seated fears of women in general. John Barrymore has long since been relegated to Dead White Male status, along with most psychologists capable of understanding his work.

   I was thinking of Barrymore the other day, and how his quote was relative to Scientism after his grand-daughter's antics once again made pop-culture headlines. Drew Barrymore has never been an acting talent anywhere near her grandparents, though her ability to best both of them in terms of alcoholism was quite an accomplishment. The elder Barrymores weren't bad people; theatrical families always tend to be a bit eccentric; but Drew had the misfortune of being born rich with no talent, little intelligence, and not even looks that could match her grandmother in her prime.


   Fortunately for her though, Drew Barrymore also came along in an era where actual merit doesn't count for anything but having the right connections matters considerably. Her sheer stupidity, the low quality of postmodern American Media, and the ability to follow all of the politically-correct talking-points makes her what passes for a celebrity or 'influencer' today. A specimen of her brilliant insights into human sexuality maybe assessed from a 2003 interview: 
 “Do I like women sexually? Yeah, I do. Totally. I have always considered myself bisexual. I love a woman's body. I think a woman and a woman together are beautiful, just as a man and a woman together are beautiful. Being with a woman is like exploring your own body, but through someone else" 

    So it shouldn't be surprising that her latest escapade involved dropping to her knees on stage and slavishly bowing to a drag queen. The psychological image of a besotted, washed-up specimen of American Feminism submitting to the New Order of the liberated, dominant trans-man predictably sent the Whacko Left Wing into paroxysms of delight. 


    Oh, it's 'energy' alright: but not the positive kind. A look at a recent clip from Tricia's blog shows about what real women feel. Contrary to what Manosphere Red Pills and practitioners of Scientism want to believe, women have a stronger social survival instinct than men. A recent example is how Syrian women held the social fabric of their country together when Obama and his allies in ISIS were on the verge of planting the Rainbow Flag over Damascus. This instinct is heavily tied to the maternal instinct, whereas men are more inclined to fight for leaders or ideologies since the paternal instinct is more focused on community, tribe, nation, etc. If Western women stopped to realize that the Great Reset freaks plan their obsolescence, the backlash is going to be ferocious (and frankly I hope that there is one). 

   We've documented here before how and why the Great Reset Oligarchy is pushing the Rainbow Agenda and shifting their focus from deconstructing masculinity to deconstructing femininity. In the New World Order's Inverted Totalitarianism, sociopolitical policies are measured in terms of cost-effectiveness to the Elites. Radical Feminism was useful to them in the past for breaking down a workforce heavily dependent on a man providing for a family. It served its purpose, but women encountered many of the same issues for the Elites in the workforce: though women worked for less money and were less likely to unionize or demand better working conditions, they also needed a wide support network. Thus, it became more profitable to create a sterile workforce of emasculated men. To the Elites, that's the best of both worlds they take advantage of male loyalty to leadership and female passivity. 

   Like everything else that these criminal scum do; the LGBTQ Agenda and corresponding depopulation schemes don't include themselves. They'll still be reproducing offspring and having families---after all, they have to keep their dynasties intact. These policies and ideologies are for us; their inferiors, serfs, and slaves. To them, we're simply human capital: much like livestock where the herd has to be managed. 

   The perverts on Wall Street and in Hollywood were also behind the celebrity status of Dylan James Mulvaney, the troon to whom Drew Barrymore was offered up as a foil. Mulvaney---who didn't even bother assuming a female name---gained around 10 million followers on social media. He runs an internet series titled Days of Girlhood which chronicles his 'progress' on his way to becoming the alternative female of the future. This is all portrayed as a fascinating story of an individual's struggle to self-realization. Our friends at Kiwi Farms, though, have a whole discussion thread on this weirdo. A contributor there under the name of Swerf'n'Terf has posted some deep-dives into the commercial and corporate-media interests who've marketed and promoted Mulvaney since Day One, with a comprehensive update to Day 365, which anniversary Drew and Dilly were celebrating. 

   Common Sense alone should tell anyone that some obscure 20-something 'influencer' with Hollywood press agents, marketing contracts with major corporations, and regular meetings with high-profile people is not simply a product of changing social attitudes. Mulvaney is a product of deliberate social manipulation. There is no shortage of activist NGOs or government PSYOPs willing and able to fund and promote such ventures. 

   But exercising Common Sense in Postmodern America has become something of an officially socially-discouraged activity. In the next article, we'll discuss some of the settled science driving this narrative.
