Time for the GOP to Man-Up

Excellent. Excellent. Excellent.

This is a three point shot, from half court, right through the basket, nothing but net.

Thanks for a great article.

A few hours ago Shepard Smith on Fox News reports that nearly 3 our of 4 (72%) of jobs lost during this recession have been men. Does he lament the fact? Does he talk about the impact on the psychs of these men who live in a culture that thinks they are “losers?” Does he ask what happened to all those “shovel-ready” jobs that were supposed to rebuild the infrastructure?

No.

He makes reference to the heroism of working moms forced to return to the workforce because their husbands are unemployed.

Just another Alpha male who is no doubt surrounded by women in the news room….some of whom he probably works (ahem) “over time” with.

It would be good if a party could ‘reform’ in the way Marc suggests. May be it is just a feature of my personality but my instinct on this matter is that they will not and cannot reform. So may be I am just hopeless and as I say that might just be my own gloomy character.

If there where to be something along the lines of a total economic collapse then may be what would emerge afterwards might be something that would suite us better.

One of the sadnesses for me is my view that men and MRAs are self defeating. They criticise the state for the injustices heap on men and then in the same breath glorify the military as somehow being the embodiment of manliness. But as long as men continue to support the state by being willing to kill and die for it why should the state give a damn for men? They are doing what they are requires to by becoming slaves of the state in the armed forces and doing its dirty work. As far as society and the state is concerned all is well.

So for as long as men keep on being available by volunteering to become corpses then as far as the state is concerned there is no problem. Of course if you stopped volunteering then you will be forces so may be even that option is denied.

Agreed. Nothing but net. Now Marc will hopefully Twitter more. We also need someone to Twitter GlennSacks’ material.

Some “right wing women” on Twitter have captured a hashtag called #SGP which means “Smart Girl Politics” and some so-called conservative men (especially “males” who call themselves “libertarians” or “patriots”) are pandering to them…crawling on their knees for female affirmation…rather than approaching them in a more dignified manner and making sure they agree with them, the men, rather than the other way around.

Panderers include a former Pentagon official Bryan Del Monte who tweets as @RightCommentary. This wimp was actually in charge once of interrogating Al Qaeda prisoners. But he shrinks from even admitting that the word “feminist” exists (he thinks he is priming himself to be DefSec in the next GOP administation).

Then there is a former Homeland Security official @BonzerWolf who worked in Immigration and declared me to be “dangerous” for the future of the GOP. Someone should get him to elaborate on that statement.

Both say they are Republicans. They don’t tweet pro-feminist stuff thankfully. They just make a point of ignoring men’s rights issues…which, sadly, @CatoInstitute and @Heritage are also doing.

But it is not so bad in that only 2 pandering types unfollow my Twitter account per month, seemingly to let me know they like women and I supposedly don’t. These “conservative” men equate the word feminist with “woman”. No woman has unfollowed my Twitter account since July.

So there is a huge male/female market for pro-male politics.

The women SGP types often Retweet what I say showing there are actually more women on Twitter who believe in men’s rights than men (but my 1900 followers also show there are men who at least want to passively watch their rights being talked about).

A fake “Republican woman” to watch out for is Tammy Bruce @HeyTammyBruce who has a large Twitter following.

Time for men to play catch-up on Twitter. It is not hard. The first step is to follow everyone that follows Tammy Bruce and 75% of them will follow you.

There is plenty of content on MND, TheNoNonsenseMan and GlennSacks to Retweet (RT) and a lot of us are writing great content of our unknown that could be Retweeted.

A good person to work with on Twitter is Phyllis Schafly at @EagleForumInfo. Join or create new MensRights lists. Twitter just started the list function yesterday.

BTW, Smart Girl Politics – #SGP on Twitter – is louded as being “the first time conservative women have found a voice to be heard”. They note that it was started by a housewife in Tennessee to show that it is “grassroots”.

Note that “Housewives”, funded by beta male husbands, have had the spare time to influence politics for 6000 years. Their prime drive was to enact legislation to stop their husbands from abandoning them (Assyrians and Romans succumbed to housewife politics).

Well, sorry, I’ve no Twitter anecdotes to share.

Self effacement for men I suppose somehow quenches the urge men have for “women and children first”….I don’t really know because I dont self efface. It also plays to the younger male crowd because what young man hasn’t tried to sell himself past the door-um-person guarding the zipper by saying “I’m not like other guys” and thinking that meets the cover charge.

Whats especially upsetting is to see seemingly intelligent men, who HAVE had an original thought about something, suddenly parrot the inane dogma that consists of a worn out set of old self effacement saws.

Women LOVE those men…..until they don’t. That’s the dirthy secret isn’t it? Even the estrogen exuding men in romance novels, muscular females with beards who can man up when the lady thinks he should feed this fire.

Great article as usual Marc.

Great stuff!

Great piece.

Many more men than those who even yet realize it are hungering for a vehicle to give voice to men’s neglected, but vital, interests. At this point, Democrats are virtually the political arm of NOW when it comes to gender issues. I hold out little hope for the “masters of the universe” mentality of the Republican party, though.

Republican men fancy themselves the “alphas” of society — above any gender fray bedeviling the worker drones. Feminism’s push to get women out of the home and into the workplace just has created more, and thus cheaper, worker drones, is all. That a few more women get to enter the alpha realm (and generally masculinize themselves in the process) is a small price to pay for the plentiful and delightfully cheap supply of labor now available — especially for all the new soft service jobs our economy is breeding.

I fear that only after a major economic and social collapse will women finally turn to men and indignantly demand to know how we could have allowed this to happen, and what are we going to do to take back the reins and fix the problem. Then, as usual, something will get done.

The false left-right paradigm has brought men to the condition we are in, and the nation to the condition it is in. Divide and conquer has worked magnificently; the middle class argues among ourselves, at election time choosing either interventionist big-government R’s or D’s, while we are destroyed by both. A fool’s game.

When will we force change? When we stop supporting our oppressors. Not one minute before then. The noose is tightening at an increasing clip. The police and surveillance state is folding into place. The militarization of the police, and the constabularization of the military is nearly complete. In the U.S., DHS’s power advances daily. Britain is an advanced case, an opportunity for Americans to look at our own future. Liberty is completely dead in Britain. Look at it closely.

Jay R: “I fear that only after a major economic and social collapse will women finally turn to men…”

The collapse is happening now, held somewhat at bay by money-printing at the Fed and deficit spending by the Treasury. TARP was a bi-partisan looting of the taxpayer. The middle class, the basis of all genuine political reform movements and revolutions, is being chewed off the economic ladder from the bottom up. This is not an accident, and is due to R and D policies over the past twenty years.

We are firmly in the grip of an economic (banking) oligarchy that owns the political system and keeps us fighting among ourselves.

Forget equality. That’s a weak sister response to the inversion of a healthy social order. I do not desire equality with women. Nor do I desire gynocracy. I desire patriarchy, which has successfully guided and protected our people since the dawn of agriculture and perhaps before. It is best for both men and women. Equality for men is an improvement, but does not get us to where we really should be.

Well where I live, the mid west, the militia and resistance fighters are training for battle..literally.. People are talking….

“(Assyrians and Romans succumbed to housewife politics)” It seems anyway that matriarchies seem to exist only in the very beginning of societies and at the very end..

Yes, the final end of the Roman Republic is interesting… Roman men of the time complained that although Rome ruled the world, women ruled Rome.

Upon the dissolution of the Roman family, falling birth rates, female sexuality moving from private and monogamous to public and promiscuous the Roman general, statesman, and censor Quintus Caecilius Metellus Macedonicus states in 131 B.C….

“If we could survive without a wife, citizens of Rome, all of us would do without that nuisance.” So proclaimed the Roman general, statesman, and censor.

Still, he went on to plead, falling birthrates required that Roman men fulfill their duty to reproduce, no matter how irritating Roman women might have become.

“Since nature has so decreed that we cannot manage comfortably with them, nor live in any way without them, we must plan for our lasting preservation rather than for our temporary pleasure.”

It seems to me that the Republicans are trying to commandeer the Tea Party Patriots….If the Resistance Movement is subverted by Republicans I am afraid our Republic will continue to fall..
