So-called pickup artists were hated because their techniques and training worked, not because they were misogynists. Women viewed the movement as unauthorized and undesirable men getting an unfair advantage, similar to how many liberals see working out and staying fit as cheating. It’s the same mindset. Idiotic, yes, but I’m just describing, not condoning.
So many people are moving away from leftism because it’s difficult to align with a belief system that calls you “fascist” if you do not welcome a pack of appropriately-colored third-worlders gang-raping your daughter.
Most normal people don’t want anything to do with that.
I think something both rightists and leftists miss about CEOs is that a high-quality CEO unless they are truly exceptional like Jobs doesn’t help all that much, but a low-quality CEO is corporate suicide.
So (and empirical studies demonstrate this) avoiding having a terrible CEO is a lot more important for long-term company health than having someone really amazing.

1) Women in this sport and most sports can wear whatever they want already. There are literally no restrictions. Clownishly wrong fucking take. Women wear those outfits because they want to.
2) And my problem isn’t that you cannot see her butt, it’s that it’s a worse shot! It’s zoomed in too tightly to get any context. Just objectively it’s an inferior shot for the purpose of ridiculous prudishness. I hate this timeline.
3) If women are not allowed to be shown in their actual athletic clothes while doing their actual sport, they should not be permitted to wear that attire at all. Simple as that.
Nearly all the people I’ve seen dragging Audrey for how “hideous” she is have been women — it’s actually women who have higher standards than men, even for other women.
As for me, I’ve liked Audrey for a while. I had no idea she was supposed to be some super hideous freak to many people. I cannot understand why. It looks like she’s having fun and she has some good pop songs. Women, leave her alone.
Sister, I can assure you that women are capable of really bad sex. For instance:
1) A woman who used more teeth than anything else during a blowjob. That hurt and left marks. She was genuinely trying, just terrible.
2) A woman who bounced around like a crazed gorilla and almost broke my penis. I was just a human dildo to her. I might as well not have been there for all I got out of it.
3) A woman who stuck her finger up my butt without checking with me first. If I did that to a woman, it’d be called “rape.”
There are more, but that’s a good sampling. This is another example of “women are wonderful, blameless, and cannot be held accountable for anything.” I think women are probably bad at sex more often than men, to be clear.
My honest and historically realistic land acknowledgement:
You used to be here; now you’re not. The land you dwelled on was taken. You were not strong enough to hold it so it is now ours. You lost. We won. History’s tide sweeps all away eventually. Thus it ever was and ever will be.
Alas that is probably true. Because that’s the way it always goes, like all the doofclowns now writing “authoritatively” about the 90s who are too young to recall that time.
When you advocate for copyright in the modern age, you are advocating for artificial scarcity that is a deadweight loss to the entire civilization. I do not care what your “good” reasons are. Every argument you make ultimately reduces to prioritizing extortionate rent extraction from things that cost nothing to copy. Culture is a commons, and you are fencing it off so a middleman can charge admission at the gate. Call it what you want and cry all you want. It doesn’t matter. It’s still a tollbooth built on infinite abundance.
I’m certainly not defending misogyny, but women in the US in particular are just worse now. Their mental health has been destroyed by smartphones and social media; these are not the same women we used to have. Most of them are entitled, repugnant, spoiled brats who hate men but still think they all deserve that top 0.1% man — while offering nothing and looking like a cave troll due to no exercise and obesity.
So of course there is going to be some backlash to that. It’d more notable if there were not a counter-reaction.
Uh…I’m sorry for reducing all y’all’s earnings. Kind of. A lot of you deserved it though.
