Getting What

That’s often true. I got with way, way more women when I was appreciably a jerk and let my more right-wing tendencies be vocalized. It wasn’t even close.

Women might claim they don’t like jerks. Whatever. The reality is that most of them do, or at least it’s true that they mistake jerkitude for confidence so often that the difference is immaterial. And most feminists are the, “Feminism for thee but not for me” types. These days, nearly all.

Not all women (heh), to be clear, on any of this. But a very large majority.

Overwhelm

I don’t think Europe or really anyone else has an answer for their societies being invaded and overwhelmed by third world immigration waves (largely Islamic) with values averse to Western culture.

This will destroy the societies they invade, of course. And I think Western civilization is worth saving. Both for selfish reasons and because it’s a damn sight better than scrabbling around in the dirt with sticks that Islamic culture will lead to for the foreseeable future if allowed to fester.

Fascism doesn’t work but liberalism also does not work. It invites the infection in. So…what now?
