Emasculation of the Western Man

[luka]

Eden seems to have turned into a 4chan person which is a bit worrying.

 

[shiels]

not as tough as me

gus gets to live out his own manly frontier adventure in the woods because he can code. does luka, the poet, ward over us like like the biggest cock in the hen house anywhere but online?

My power comes from tenderness and compassion.

Read some Dworkin earlier this year and then listened to a couple of podcasts about incels and the far/alt right.

masculinity is a key thread in fascism so it’s an interesting area to look into rn

 

[luka]

I think so too.

Ties into the homophobia you get in Russia as well, to link into the other thread.

One thing i did notice is that YouTube never seems to spam you with homophobic propaganda the way it constantly spams you with race baiting and misogyny.

 

[DannyL]

I don't get all that on Youtube anyway. I don't use it that much but I just stuff about cooking, bodybuilding and weightlifting with the occasional Migos video to liven it up.

 

[luka]

I watch a lot of cooking and bodybuilding too and it just shoves a load of racism and misogyny at me.

Very good. I mean, could we skin a wolf? I could. But you lot? Probably better buy it from BHS

 

[luka]

It's a boar, not a wolf. But boar are deadly. Very pugnacious

I won a small prize for finding the vagus nerve in a rat at school. Very exacting task, executed masterfully.

 

[luka]

It was dead already!

 

[Leo]

yeah, not much of a challenge, 146 Man.

I wonder if someone ever broke down incels by profession

A lot of IT i reckon. Hotdesk office workspaces

I like that cartoon of the lad skinning wolves and then going shopping. Is there a whole micro industry of effeminate men distraught with their lot but also reading a lot of Andy capp and thinking I might have a go at this

Ayn Rand is the ideal man?

All my brothers go fishing, but I can’t stand it. Utter tedium. The levels of kit and equipment are worse than golf. Sea angling is ok, casting off rocks as an example is fun, but sat by a canal full of shopping trolleys or artificial lakes full of pellet fed trout? Get to fuck.

I tried playing an incredibly detailed fishing simulator. You could look at the weather forecast, customise more or less every bit of your kit etc. It was terrible.
