The fanatical Red Pills have a history of infiltrating mainstream culture to plant their poisonous ideologies. The head of the Red Pill Subreddit we found, was a member of the NH Legislature. The notorious provocateur 'Ricky Vaughn' was a Wall Street operative. And we all know of Vox Day's attempts to hijack various literary guilds.
Now we find that the cretinous podcaster 'Specter' is really freelance writer Trey Garrison. Garrison published articles in the Dallas Morning News; The Land Report; D Magazine; and Reason---as well as publishing novels for media giant, Harper-Collins. More recently, he was a regular contributor to several Manosphere sites; Red Pill Twitter-feeds; and the host of The Third Rail, a podcast. He portrayed himself to his deluded followers there, however, as a psychiatrist living in the Seattle area. In reality, he has no degree in psychology and lives in Plano, Texas.
For those not familiar with The Third Rail, 'Specter' is an advocate of the Red Pill/Game philosophy. He's also a Holocaust denier. After the December conviction of Charlottesville murderer James Fields, Specter opined that "the verdict was a travesty of justice. Sadly, the notion we are a 'nation of laws' has been thrown out the window through the subversion of the Jews."
As Specter, Garrison often incited his followers to harassment of innocent people, for which Red Pill Andrew Anglin effusively praised him. Here's a gem, transcribed from a podcast last May, of suggestions for harassing Blacks:
"Should you find yourself in a nice shopping mall, high-end store, and you see a black person, kinda mosey over to the security guard and say, ‘I think I saw that lady put something in her purse.' Or, as another example, if you see two or three of ’em gathered on a street corner and you see a cop, just kinda walk up to ’em and say, ‘Hey, I don’t know if it was a gun, but I think I saw one of those guys had a gun.'"
That sounds like fun, doesn't it? Seriously, how is this any different than the tactics of the Whacko Left---chasing people out of restaurants or disrupting events?
Last Summer, Garrison and his cohorts at The Third Rail, promoted a campaign called 'The Day of the Brick'. This was a coordinated campaign of intimidation and advocating violence against reporters, in particular writers for The Huffington Post. One does have to wonder if---given the psychological profile of most Red Pills---this wasn't an act of envious retribution that Garrison hoped to execute upon his more successful peers.
Since Garrison was exposed, several women have admitted that he has a long history of online stalking and other crude behaviors towards themselves and other women. This is also fairly typical Red Pill behavior. So much for another manly Alpha leader shown up as a lying sneak and an envious fraud.
So no doubt everyone's heard that the corporate cornballs at Gillette have jumped on the male-bashing bandwagon and produced a virtue-signalling ad at the expense of most of its consumer base. Not that these corporate oligarchs care anymore about consumers anyway. There are plenty of NPC snowflake-boys---with more hair on their chins than their chests---who can keep Gillette domestically competitive with the company's foreign monopolies.
Gillette itself is a subsidiary of Wall Street transnational Proctor and Gamble. These are the same jokers who produced a controversial 2017 ad encouraging Black hatred of the police and fomenting racial division. Many saw a subtle misandry in that ad as well. But that's not the only time that P&G has been embroiled in scandal. In 2011, they were heavily sanctioned by the European Union for getting caught running a price-fixing scheme. Despite the company's virtue-signalling, they were exposed in 2016 profiting off slave-labor plantations in Indonesia.
The corporation is also heavily invested in political lobbying. They retain 30 lobbyists inside the Beltway---22 of whom are ex-government officials. They spend about $3 million annually on lobbying alone. Most of their contributions go to Democrats; and a whopping 43 Congressmen and Senators are invested in P&G stocks. Hillary Clinton received $60,000 from P&G in 2016.
The Board of Directors at P&G too is filled with this kind of political detritus. Among them are Frank Blake, former head legal adviser to the EPA; Angela Braly, former healthcare lobbyist, named by various business journals as the 4th Most Powerful Woman in America. She also sits on the Board of Exxon-Mobil and is a political ally of 'Rainbow Rex' Tillerson.
Amy L. Chang is also Senior Vice-President of Cisco Systems, a major government contractor. Kenneth Chenault is the former CEO of American Express and one of Harvard University's Board of Overseers. He's also on Facebook's and Airbnb's Board. He was donor to Barack Obama and several other Democrats. Billionaire Scott Cook, founder of Intuit, is also a P&G Board member. Cook is also a Harvard overlord; and has a political donation record of dumping thousands on whichever politician happened to be holding power at the time. Nothing like buying favors...
Joseph Jimenez, also of the P&G Board was head of Big Pharma megacorp, Novartis. Terry Lundgren, is formerly CEO of Macy's Department Stores and served on the Federal Reserve Board. Politically, he was allied with arch-RINO NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg. James McNerney, former CEO of government contractors, GE and Boeing, also served on the President's Export Council under Obama. Nelson Peltz, billionaire figure in Agribusiness and close friend of the Bush Family joined in 2018. Meg Whitman, a billionaire former Republican politician turned Never-Trumper; Patricia Woertz, another Agribusiness executive; and Ernesto Zedillo, former President of Mexico who infamously attained that post after his top rival was assassinated---round out this august group.
Given this backdrop of players, are we surprised at the Gillette ad? What we have here is a collection of people who've ridden the Revolving Door between Wall Street and the Deep State for so long that they have no idea what this 'toxic masculinity' they criticize even means. P&G's current CEO, David Taylor, is a career corporate bureaucrat. With what authority do any of them speak of gender relations? There is none: and we should take their opinions on the subject for what they're worth---which is nothing.
With the advent of the Trump Era, this type of corporate PC activism is waning in any real influence and really are nothing but the dying gasps of an Old Order, now passing into history. The days of in-your-face PC advertising---most of which were publicity stunts anyway---is over. More and more Americans are becoming less intimidated to stand up for their rights and alternatives to these virtue-signalling megacorporations are arising with the new emphasis on American entrepreneurialism. And thus the best way to fight oligarchies like P&G/Gillette is simply to go forward.
So, we came across another article the other day, illustrating the increasing dissociation from reality among the Left-Wing so-called 'Elites.' The American Psychological Association has come out with a new position paper on treating male patients.
At first, the article looked fairly promising. The APA actually started out by recognizing some very real and unique issues afflicting American men. But sadly, it went downhill from there. The 'authorities' basically agreed that "traditional masculinity is psychologically harmful." They claim that masculine values "marked by stoicism, competitiveness, dominance, and aggression is, on the whole, harmful."
These opinions, of course, are not based upon any actual solid scientific findings. The rest of the article is rife with pseudoscience and ahistorical mythologies. Examples are: "Prior to 1960's 2nd-Wave Feminism, all psychology was the psychology of men;" "Old psychologies left out people of color and women and conformed to gender-role stereotypes;" "Gender is no longer just this male-female binary;" and most absurd of all was a long paragraph on what they call 'John Henryism' which is a completely racist portrayal of Black men disguised as cultural sensitivity.
This article brings up an issue that I first began to encounter a few months ago when writing about a new crackpot theory from the Academic Left which claimed that the whole concept of 'mind' is an illusion. That article was a difficult one to write. Then, last month, an article appeared in The Medium telling us about a concerning issue among the Left: that robots lack diversity and need Affirmative Action. Try as I might, I couldn't produce an article on that subject. The APA's new position paper presents the same conundrum.
It's not that the points raised in these kinds of articles are self-evident and irrefutable. The problem with writing about them is that their subject matter is so logically absurd that it's difficult to formulate an intelligent argument against ideas that are as plain stupid as these. How does someone, for example, formulate a philosophy---even an erroneous one---that the mind is illusion without using the mind to arrive at such a conclusion? The very idea that the mind doesn't exist is self-refuting.
How does one explain to these people that machinery has no intrinsic has no connection to culture; and to talk about multiculturalism among androids is ridiculous. Likewise with this APA paper. One of Freud's greatest contributions in elevating Psychology to a science was his demonstrations that this so-called "male-female binary" is a major motive force in human social evolution. IOW, taking 'traditional gender roles' out of Psychology is like taking Cellular Biology out of Medicine. All that is left of Psychology is a highly subjective analysis of human emotions and feelings with no actual therapeutic or socially-redeeming value.
And that's the basis of the problem. All that needed to be said about three high-brow Leftist social theories was just said in the preceding two paragraphs. It's not like debating over the merits of the proposed Border Wall or Trump's Budget or Tax proposals. In the APA paper, there's nothing to debate. Outside of their initial definition of the problem, their premises are factually false and their conclusions unrealistic and unworkable. If the authors of that paper actually believe any of what they wrote, they should be in a mental hospital themselves. And if they don't really believe it, they shouldn't be holding any high positions of public trust anyway.
The important thing to take away from all of this is that people who think like these guys will be running things if the Whacko Left Wing ever gets into power. For now, they can sit in their sinecures and spout off about things they don't understand---and that's bad enough---but having such nutcases making public policy will be a disaster. We need to stay the course, drain the swamp, and support the direction President Trump is leading us.
For the second time since 2017, a man was found dead in the home of Ed Buck of West Hollywood, California. The victim was identified as 55 year-old Timothy Dean; who worked at Saks Fifth Avenue and was a former porn industry figure, according to The Los Angeles Times. Dean died of an unspecified narcotics overdose. The victim in 2017 was a male prostitute named Gemmel Moore, who died of methamphetamine poisoning. Buck was never charged in the 2017 death, and LA County officials don't seem especially eager to pursue an investigation into this year's first high-profile Hollywood casualty.
As it happens, both victims were Black men; but Ed Buck is a White Liberal with friends in very high places. A self-made multimillionaire, Buck was a former 'Log Cabin' Republican in Arizona before switching parties during the Clinton co-presidency and moving to California. An open homosexual and drug addict, Buck had a history during the 1980's of arrests for Indecent Exposure and forging prescriptions to obtain Opioid narcotics before learning that a close association with the Clintons protected one from scrutiny for such behaviors. Since that time, too, Buck has been a major donor to Democrat causes and candidates.
And, as we should expect, both National-level and California Democrats have had little to say about these activities; though, in fairness some at the grass-roots level have spoken out. One Ashlee Marie Preston, a transgendered Black blog editor, published a rather creepy but highly insightful article hypothesizing that Buck is "a wealthy White politico with a deadly fetishization of disenfranchised Black men." While I don't agree with some of Preston's sociological premises here, I think that the psychological assessments of Buck's character are probably quite accurate. Although Buck's perversion may have a racialist aspect to it, we have seen the same psychodynamics played out in the scandals surrounding Oregon Democrat donor Terence Bean and the disgraced ex-mayor of Seattle, Ed Murray.
Another disturbing aspect of Buck's case is that both victims seemed to be men who were struggling to escape from the homosexual lifestyle. In Dean's case we were told today that he was active in some sort of religious support group. However, recently released pages from
Gemmel Moore's private diary are a little more open. These were published by an author named Jasmyne Cannick whom (if I remember correctly) is a Democrat activist in the Los Angeles area herself:
“My mind and action change. I am not the same person I was born to be,” Moore wrote in his journal. “I felt as if I sold my soul to the devil — I want to be back in the hands of God. I want to be healed from drugs, poverty and troubles. I want independence. I want my own. There’s so much madness going on in my life. It’s got to be illegal and wrong. The way I was raised to be, you would never expect this. I just hope the end result isn’t death. Someone needs to save me soon."
In a less politically corrected era, Moore's and Dean's apparent attempts to change through religion would have turned the investigative spotlight on Buck like a beacon. Older generations of psychologists and criminologists understood fully well that the 'power exchange' alluded to by Preston (whereby powerful homosexuals exploit vulnerable men) is threatened by religion (because God is the Ultimate Power). Homosexuals of the Buck, Bean, and Murray varieties react to their subjects' conversions about like any other abusive bully in a relationship reacts when they're rejected. Sometimes it results in a violent death.
Yet here, in Ed Buck, we have another specimen of the sort of 'Elites' to whom our Democrat opponents in Government, Media, and Academia slavishly bow. These are the sorts of scum populating the Deep State Swamp, which we're now trying to drain---the kinds of people who held the reins of power for the last three decades; and who could come back to that power if we're not vigilant.
For those who haven't heard of him, Michael Harriot is a writer for The Root Magazine. Harriot has been under some scrutiny lately after launching a profane tirade on Christmas Eve against NRA spokeswoman, Dana Loesch. Part of these lovely holiday sentiments read: "I hope she dies in a car fire with the windows open so she doesn't die of smoke asphyxiation but has to die slow!"
Such behavior and sentiments, of course, are not uncommon from the Whacko Left. The Left considers these hysterical outbursts as deep and thoughtful expressions of political philosophy; on par with those lofty utterances by the likes of Steven Colbert, Maxine Waters, and Alec Baldwin.
As for The Root itself, it purports to be "an Afrocentric online magazine." But is it really as representative of Black Americans as it claims? Some have their doubts, and with good reason.
The Root Magazine is a subsidiary of transnational media conglomerate, Univision Communications. Univision also owns the radical Feminist blogsite, Jezebel. In 2013, Univision launched a Left-Wing civic activist initiative funded by gangs like the Clinton Foundation, La Raza, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and Common Sense Media. The latter of these is headed by Soros-associate and radical Leftist billionaire Tom Steyer. Steyer donated over $87 million to Democrats in 2016. Common Sense Media has also been campaigning recently against 'gender stereotyping' in the press.
It sounds so far that Harriot's employers are a gang of suburban White Liberals, not especially representative of mainstream Blacks. And it gets even more shady when we see that Univision itself is owned by five Wall Street financial oligarchies---each with a 20% share in the company. They are Madison-Dearborn; Providence Equity Partners; TPG Capital; Thomas H. Lee Partners; and the Saban Capital Group. These five companies donated over $2 1/2 million to lobbies, PACs and candidates in 2018.
Madison-Dearborn donated to causes of both parties. In 2016, they supported RINO Marco Rubio. Multimillionaire Democrat Congressman Jared Polis of Colorado owns stock in Madison-Dearborn.
Providence Equity Partners also donated to both parties. In 2016, they supported the RINO Jeb Bush, then switched to supporting Hilary Clinton after Trump won the GOP nomination.
TPG Capital donated the most money of these five in 2018; mostly to Democrats. In 2016, their top donation went to the DNC and sent almost $43,000 to the Clinton Campaign. Hilary Clinton was their top recipient among candidates.
Thomas H. Lee Partners donated in both election cycles. They also supported RINO Bush and then switched to Clinton in 2016.
Saban Capital Group donated to Democrats in 2018; and in 2016 was the 12th largest political donor of the entire year: over $15 million to the Democrats---$53,411 to Hilary Clinton personally and half a million to the DNC among all of this slush-funding. Hiam Saban, the CEO of this gang is a billionaire Hollywood Liberal. He even held some advisory posts under the Clinton co-presidency and was a frequent visitor to the White House.
With a growing number of Blacks supporting President Trump, it's apparent then that Harriot---and The Root Magazine in general---are just mouthpieces for the White Liberal, Deep-State Elite; out of touch with the people whom they claim to represent.
I heard about this incident right before the holidays, but hadn't heard about the outcome. It seems that a fellow in Tucker, Georgia (a suburb of Atlanta) went into a 'vape' shop. He was wearing a pro-Trump t-shirt; when the clerk behind the counter saw him and had a TDS breakdown.
The customer videotaped the outburst and shared it on Youtube. It shows the clerk demanding that the customer leave the store while screaming obscenities and throwing merchandise around, according to NBC-11 Atlanta. As shocked patrons looked on and began slipping quietly out of the store, the clerk pulled out his cellphone and began screaming into the receiver.
"I got a f***er in my store who won't leave," he says into his phone. "He's wearing some Trump stuff. He's wearing some Trump bull**** got some racist bull**** [uninteligible]. I'm f*****, I'm not f***** serving anyone that has anything to do with that f*****."
The clerk then ran through the store raving incoherently about fascists, racists, capitalists, and something to do with human feces.
The video went viral on Youtube; and after the owners of the Xhale City stores, found themselves getting laughed at, they investigated. Not only did they fire the whacko clerk, they also contacted the customer and apologized. Oh well, the clerk can always get a job with the Corporate Media, where such behavior is routine.
On a more serious note though, Conservatives need to be extra vigilant these days. As we've seen from the 2016 Election to the Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearings; the Left is becoming increasingly dangerous. They've always been prone to irrational acts of violence but the difference today is that they're suddenly going off---like human time-bombs---anyplace, anywhere, and when they do, they go blind to their own self-preservation instincts. Not only are they losing their jobs or ending up in jail; but some have even injured or killed themselves during these outbursts.
Obviously we shouldn't live in fear, but we should be aware of what Leftists are prone to do and be prepared. Especially in places like Tucker, Georgia. According to statistics, Tucker's crime rate is 41% higher and their graduation rate 20% lower than the rest of Georgia. 36% percent of the population there is below the poverty line---so you know with numbers like these that the chances are high that most residents there are Democrats. Criminals, ignoramuses, and bums are the ones who benefit most from Liberalism and are most easily provoked to irrational violence.
A Liberal in his Natural Aspect
Our last post questioning Vox Day's claims about his publishing 'empire' drew some discussion across the Internet, and justly so. Some readers have been questioning his latest 'bestseller', Jordanetics, which is a supposed expose of Dr. Jordan Peterson. Vox made this claim for his publication back in November:
"In 'Jordanetics' political philosopher Vox Day delves deeply into the core philosophy that Jordan Peterson advocates both in his written works and video lectures. In doing so, Day methodically builds a shocking case that will convince even the most skeptical Jordan Peterson supporter to reconsider both the man and his teachings."
Ever since the release of Jordanetics, Vox has been trumpeting that his 'expose' is selling #1 on Amazon and Kindle; and that Peterson and his followers are ignoring all of these supposedly "shocking cases" which Vox provides. But, as we saw in our last post, it's mathematically impossible for Vox to outsell Peterson.
Someone linked to our last post on the website Kiwi Farms (thank you to our readers there). One of their contributors who goes by the name of 'Flexo', provided some stats from Kindle which reveal the truth. On sites like Kindle, publishers can create categories for their works---which means that they can create niches where they have little or no competition. While Kindle doesn't provide sales numbers, they do provide sales rankings which don't include the parameters. Thus we find that:
The 12 Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson (1 year in print) ranks #213th.
Jordanetics by Vox Day (3 months in print) ranks #17,355th.
So, a year after its initial release, The 12 Rules is still in the Top 250 on Kindle, while Jordanetics---a the top of its release date---hasn't even cracked five figures in the rankings.
Based on the tax figures that Vox' Castalia House submitted to the EU Tax Authority, we calculated that combined sales for the Red Pills are around $955/month. Jordanetics sells on Kindle for $5.99. If these were the only sales that CH had during the last three months, the maximum number of Jordanetics sold couldn't be higher than 477 copies. In contrast, it's estimated that The 12 Rules for Life has sold over 2,000,000 copies as of December 31st.
Bear in mind that Vox won't release any actual sales figures, so we're making estimates based upon available information. But what clearly appears is that Jordanetics and Vox' attacks on Peterson are simply publicity stunts without any real substance.
