Hamas

It is amazing to me that millions of liberals worship and have such affection for those who would not hesitate to rape, murder and parade their bodies through the streets if they got the chance.

I think that speaks to something inherently self-hating and self-destructive in the modern liberal project.

Hit

Can being bullied as a kid still affect you as an adult?

Of course. I’m hypervigilant at least in part (probably mostly) due to being bullied.

And migraines don’t run in my family, but I have them. I often wonder if they were induced by frequent head trauma when I was young. There is no way to answer that definitively of course, but I suspect they were caused by external factors rather than being congenital.

Being hit in the head a lot is not good for you.

Israel should’ve given three days to evacuate, then leveled Gaza. It’s what I would’ve done. I would’ve assisted settling the displaced Gazans in other Arab countries, though no one really wants them. Who would?

Slam

In the near term, Russia and China are the greatest risks.

In the medium term, though, nuclear war with an Islamicized Europe is a pretty significant risk. Assuming the current trends continue, an Islamic, extremely repressive Europe is likely in 40-60 years. They’ll have French (or Pakistani, or both) nukes by then.

And that’ll be very bad for the US.

Sales Call

Exactly.

The “It was just a rowdy tour group!” nonsense is so fucking funny to me. It’s like a Monty Python sketch except in real life. Listen, if you believe the January 6 insurrection, attempted coup and actual riot was just a tour group gone wild, I need your name and number because I could sell you anything.

Don’t Do What Weak Losers Do

To extend the thought below, were I single I’d absolutely without hesitation date anyone 22 or older. I’d consider someone exceptional younger than that, as long as she was of legal age. A match under 22 is far less likely, though.

And that’s what women’s intrasexual competition is all about: it’s mainly older and bitterer women attempting to prevent those “unauthorized” matches from occurring so they can get the advantage and attempt to corner men like me into dating them by making it “morally wrong” to be with anyone who isn’t them.

As I said, I am not single and am in a very happy relationship, but if I were single I’d not give a single goddamn fuck about what anyone thinks about who I date or why. Anyone who does is a weak loser.

Tall Tales and Other Fails

Also, I think I witness a lot more of women’s intrasexual competition lately. I’m hotter than I’ve ever been in my life, and contrary to feminist tall tales women in the 20-30 age range are very interested in me and other men similar to me.

Partially, it’s because I look younger than I am. But it’s also that many women in that age range truly do want someone older, successful, loaded, stable and attractive. And I check all those boxes now.

Just in the last few months I’ve had two women throw themselves at me, one even inadvisably sending a salacious picture in a work Slack message that I did not ask for and said nothing about after (not interested). As I’ve said before, tons more women in the 20-30 age range express interest and flirt with me than anyone else, by far. It’s not even close.

Rail System

And this isn’t even really much of an exaggeration. A whole lot of liberals really do believe shit like Natalia is poking fun at here.

Feminism is fucked and women’s intrasexual competition as well as mental health has gone completely off the rails.

Port

Me too.

And now a million clown-ass degrowthers are weeping into their kombucha. This makes me happy.
