Inner Party always wins

The tea party, upon being elected, deems it impossible to repeal obamacare, despite the fact that it is unpopular, about to become more unpopular with startling price rises, and that it was quite popular to run against obamacare. Meanwhile, in a move that has absolutely no connection to obamacare, we are seeing a movement to publicize sedative overdose as a peaceful happy death. It generally is not. The dying person …

Gamergate and corruption

Gawker media’s primary audience is nerds. Their primary income comes from advertisers, who pay them to show ads to nerds. And this is what Gawker has to say about nerds. Ultimately GamerGate is reaffirming what we’ve known to be true for decades: nerds should be constantly shamed and degraded into submission Upon receiving a hostile reaction from their audience: @hamiltonnolan @Based_Tet@max_read Max just told me I’m getting a raise because …

Why women ruin everything

Dalrock complaints that women ruin everything.  They want to enter male spaces and make the space feminine, as a power play, not out of any interest in the things of value in that male space, which they inevitably destroy. This is a key issue in gamergate, where feminists demand that the games should be no fun and no one should play them. Women want to rule, even though it makes …

The reason that women need to be subordinated for successful reproduction

Examining difference in fertility, it is clear that fertility is primarily controlled by female status relative to their husbands.  The more women are subordinated, the higher the fertility.  Japan is a good test case.  Not only did fertility dramatically drop when General McArthur emancipated women, but in feudal Japan, fertility among high status families was below replacement when women were high status, indicated by upward mobility and room at the …

Neoreaction and Identitarianism

Neoreactionaries rightly look down on identitarians as low class, vulgar, stupid, and, worst of all, leftist. “You think construction workers should vote!  Worse, some of you think women should vote.  You are so ignorant of history that you hate capitalism, forgetting how Europe became rich.  And a lot of you are so stupid you think the Joos brought down the two towers.” This tempts neoreactionaries to say to progressives “See, …

The red and blue empires

A government is supposed to be one thing, that can be thought of as making decisions like a single person. To the extent that a government is one thing, it is a stationary bandit. But, lacking virtue and asabiyah, is apt to be many things, thus more like horde of mobile bandits. Moldbug argues that what were supposedly external wars by the US government against external enemies were frequently proxy …

Fake Hong Kong blockade

Here are the protestors “blockading” the road outside the Hong Kong Government Complex You will notice that three strong brave men with stun guns and rubber hoses could clear this blockade in fifteen minutes. If the blockade continues to exist, it is because the police wish it to continue to exist.

Hong Kong Government needs an inquisition

In the recent violence six police were injured, and nineteen people arrested, eight of who were triad members. About half of those injured were police – therefore the police are acting to protect the protestors and or coming down like the wrath of God on the counterprotestors – much like the “antifascist” riots in Europe, where the antifascists assemble to beat up “fascists”, beat them up, and then the police …

#gamergate

Social Justice Warriors believe that all people were created equal. Kind of obviously, people are not equal. Very few video games were created by women, and those games are crap. If people are not equal, it must be due to the evil magic of thought criminals thinking thought crimes. Social Justice Warriors therefore convict the broad mass of gamers as thought criminals, whose evil thoughts are magically causing magical harm, …
