Crazy People Are Dangerous

John Lee Cowell, 27, is an ex-convict with “two prior felony convictions in Contra Costa County, one for second-degree robbery on Oct. 12, 2016, and one for assault with a deadly weapon on May 25, 2012.” According to his relatives, Cowell has “suffered from mental illness most of his life and has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.” Despite this, Cowell was paroled and soon committed a violent atrocity:

An ex-con was charged Wednesday in the brutal murder in Oakland of a black teenage girl, one of three deaths occurring in the last week on Bay Area Rapid Transit, but the only one that has stoked widespread outrage over crime.
That may be because the suspect in 18-year-old Nia Wilson’s brutal murder is white, while the other two men sought in attacks on BART passengers are black.
John Lee Cowell, 27, a white ex-con with a lengthy mental-health history, was charged Wednesday in the murder and premeditated attempted murder of 18-year-old Nia Wilson and her 26-year-old sister Letifah Wilson on the MacArthur station BART platform in Oakland, California.
Nia Wilson’s stabbing death has fueled days of outrage on social media as well as a Monday vigil and protest in Oakland that drew an estimated 1,000 people, backed by groups like the Women’s March, which urged attendees to “show up against white supremacy.”
Meanwhile, Color of Change alleged that Nia Wilson was “killed by a white supremacist emboldened by the racist rhetoric of this administration,” while Colin Kaepernick’s Know Your Rights camp described the suspect as a “white supremacist/terrorist.” . . .
BART police Chief Carlos Rojas said authorities had not connected him to radical or white-supremacist groups.
“We don’t have any information that indicates that, but that’s something that we haven’t taken off the table and we will look into that,” Chief Rojas said at a Monday press conference. “I know there’s been a lot of conversations on social media regarding that, but I don’t have one piece of evidence to suggest this is race-related. But should that be the case we will pursue the appropriate hate crimes.”

There is precisely zero evidence indicating that this deranged criminal was in any way “emboldened” by the Trump administration, but it’s California, the criminal is white and the victims are black, so there is no need for evidence or logic. It may well be, of course, that Cowell is a racist; prisons are breeding grounds for ethnic hostility, with white-supremacist gangs like the Aryan Brotherhood flourishing behind bars. But it is not the Trump administration to blame here. Rather, it is the policy of the Democrat-controlled California state government, which turned a dangerous felon like Cowell loose on the streets.

It is impossible to predict what a mentally ill violent felon will do, when released on parole, and it is also impossible to predict what a mob will do when whipped into a frenzy of identity-politics rage. Bad things tend to happen in both cases, however, and in this case some leftist nitwit spread an Internet rumor that (a) Cowell was a member of Gavin McInnes’s “Proud Boys,” and (b) the Proud Boys were meeting at an Oakland bar. This was not true, but a bunch of Antifa radicals went to the bar and attacked innocent people. Tim Pool reports on the incident:

 

We’ve gone from “punch a Nazi” to “punch any random guy you think is a Nazi” in the span of about 18 months. Politics is making people crazy and, in case you forgot, Crazy People Are Dangerous.



 

Bad Luck or Bad Judgment?

Posted on | July 26, 2018 | Comments Off on Bad Luck or Bad Judgment?

 

That tweet by Hannah Williams “went viral” and generated criticism that, predictably, Ms. Williams cited as proof of how bad men are:

What is it about women sharing their actual life experiences that leads men to think they can ‘disagree’? I didn’t pluck those categories out my own ass. They are based on years of personal experience, not just mine but friends, family members, colleagues, even strangers on the internet… When something is happening to almost every woman, all across society, that means there is a SYSTEMIC problem. These aren’t ‘a few bad apples’, this is ingrained socialization all across the board, that men will only unlearn if they actively commit to it. . . . Take it from the Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Centre: ‘Men have been taught through social roles modeling and the media that they are entitled to the attention and services of women. Women are required to listen, be supportive, enhance their partners’ status with other men, fulfill the man’s sexual needs, and care for their children.’ . . .
So if you’re a man, and my tweet made you angry — you’re part of the problem.

Actually, no, ma’am, I’m part of the solution. Because I’m teaching my sons to avoid women like you. In fact, I’m teaching them to avoid the “dating pool” altogether — just find one smart, sane, decent woman (sorry, Ms. Williams, you don’t qualify) and marry her. Problem solved!

Our oldest sons (25-year-old twins) are both married with children. Our 19-year-old son is quite serious with the girl he’s dated since he was 15. Whatever their problems in regard to being “entitled to the attention and services of women,” etc., our adult sons found women who meet their requirements, and are not part of “the dating pool for young women.” (Our 17-year-old son has duly been warned.)

You see, there is a selection effect involved here. Being a member of “the dating pool” means either (a) you’re a hopeless loser, or (b) your previous relationships all ended in failure. By the time you get to be 25 or so, if you’re still in “the dating pool,” you have done something wrong — your problem is you. Blaming others for your failure to find the love of your life is irresponsible, and it doesn’t matter whether you’re an autistic Canadian “incel” or an embittered feminist. Scapegoating the opposite sex — pretending that the reason you’re still single is because of them, and not you — is a guaranteed formula for continued failure.

Why are some men “emotionally distant,” for example? Wouldn’t it be fair to say these men may just be cautious? Like, maybe if they meet an attractive but obviously unstable woman, they will be “distant” in the sense of they don’t want to make themselves vulnerable to damage? And guess what? The “dating pool” has a lot of unstable women, one of whom might be named Hannah Williams. Oh, I’m sure she’s charming, but using social media to issue anti-male rants? Warning sign.

Speaking of warning signs, Donald Douglas called my attention to a disturbing article by 29-year-old Caragh Poh:

Until we met in June of 2016, I had been casually dating several men for about two years. I went on so many first dates, and even the bad ones were delightful stories. It was enjoyable to meet new people, to discover new parts of the city. I asked each man to choose his favorite first-date spot, which was such a nice way to relearn NYC. It felt freeing and wonderful to f–k without attachment after an awful breakup with a co-worker I lived with for three months in 2014. We both moved to the city the same month in early 2013 — he was a transfer from another office, I was a new hire — and started dating three months later. . . .

(OK, pause and let’s timeline this: Five years ago, Ms. Poh moved to New York at age 24 and, within three months, was dating a co-worker. This relationship lasted about a year and ended in “an awful breakup.” She then started “casually dating several men . . . without attachment” until meeting a new boyfriend who was perhaps the eighth or ninth guy she’d screwed in the span of three years. But continue, Ms. Poh.)

During my last weeks with him [i.e., the co-worker she dated in 2013-2014], he threatened to shoot himself because no one respected him enough — especially you, he said coldly, sitting across from me in our sunken living room. I stayed for another two weeks until he told me I didn’t know how bad I f–ked up, but I’d know it when it hit me — and motioned to the gun he kept in our closet. He threw my kitten off the couch that night because he was angry at me, and drunk. He was always drunk.
He was fired for misconduct at work four months later. . . .

(She can pick a real winner, eh?)

The man I dated after the alcoholic co-worker was a former gang member.

(Like I said, she can sure pick ’em.)

I still refer to him as the most conventionally attractive guy I’ve ever dated in my life. He was fascinating. He knew every man on every street corner in his neighborhood. He had stories and scars — a long, white slash mark from a knife fight on his lower abdomen made my jaw drop the first time I saw him naked. It was above the “BROOKLYN” tattoo arched over his abs. After his mother got sick with cancer, he’d left his old life. He took up boxing. He traveled to Europe once, to box on a sponsor’s dime. He had a six-pack. I will never in my fat f–king life get to date a man with a six-pack ever again. His trapezoid muscles were mesmerizing. He looked like a Costco Trevor Noah. He was hot! I dated a hot man! . . .

Well, you can read the rest of that but — spoiler alert! — he dosed her drink with a date-rape drug and sodomized her after she passed out.

You were dating a Crip, sweetheart. What did you expect? But they never learn, that type. The boyfriend she started dating in June 2016 strung her along for more than year, borrowed “hundreds and hundreds” of dollars from her and then “dumped me over the phone.”

She’s almost 30 now. She’s wasted five years she’ll never get back. Did I forget to mention that Caragh Poh has a Tumblr blog?

 

 

She’s “worrying about my eggs dying” and you wonder if maybe she should have started worrying before she dated the Crip who raped her.

You see this kind of stuff and all you can do is laugh, because if you took it seriously — the tragedy of once-promising young women, now doomed to a Crazy Cat Lady future — it would make you cry.

This isn’t bad luck, it’s bad judgment. It’s about young women following a script of being “empowered” by “sex-positive” feminism, believing they can all be Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, and never mind whether their media-scripted life-plan is realistic or practical. Of course, there are plenty of young men following unrealistic scripts provided by Hollywood (or pornography) and wondering why they’re not getting all the thrills and glory they’ve been promised. It’s sad to see someone like Aziz Ansari wreck his reputation over a dimwit like Abby Nierman, but welcome to the age of #MeToo, where your bad date is “rape culture.”

Am I angry? You bet I’m angry. And I’m angry that more people aren’t as angry as I am. We should all be mad as hell at the sorry mess these young people have made of their lives. To quote Rhett Butler: “I’m angry. Waste always makes me angry, and that’s what all this is, sheer waste.”

The alleged glamour of life in “the dating pool” was always a fiction, a cultural commodity purveyed by Hollywood, where the movies and TV shows are written, directed and produced by predatory perverts. How am I, the father teaching his children to avoid all that, “part of the problem”?

It’s not my daughter alone in her New York apartment, shouting obscenities at the walls while “accidentally reflecting” on her regrets. My daughter is living in her own home with her own husband and her own baby. While I don’t remember explicitly telling her, “Never date a Crip,” I’m pretty sure we conveyed the general idea to her.

It is easy to blame others for our own problems, to tell ourselves that life is unfair, to pretend we are victims of society, when in fact our circumstances are the result of our own choices. To say “something is happening to almost every woman, all across society,” as Ms. Williams does, is to suggest that everybody’s following the same script, when even she admits other choices (and other consequences) are possible:

I know that not every guy conforms to the listed behaviours: I have several friends in happy, rewarding, and healthy heterosexual relationships.

OK, sweetheart: Why not you?

What’s the difference between your miserable life in the toxic “dating pool” full of creeps and losers, and the lives of your happy friends? And guys should ask themselves the same question. Why are you even in the “dating pool”? What’s the object of the game? If you could find a good woman, wouldn’t you marry her? So why aren’t you married? You are a Loser, with a capital “L,” and all your Tinder hookups mean nothing.

Worse than that, you’re ruining the game for everybody else, leaving behind a trail of bitter women telling sad stories on the Internet.

You Need Some ‘Fat Positive Activism’?

Posted on | July 25, 2018 | Comments Off on You Need Some ‘Fat Positive Activism’?

Some readers may remember Ali Thompson, the bisexual queer fat activist who declared, “Just being around men is exhausting.”

Ms. Thompson runs a Tumblr blog called “OK2BeFat” where she offers her readers “fat positive activism,” i.e., sloganeering like this:

 

“Diet culture is capitalist violence”? What does this even mean? It is a rhetorical appeal to left-wing prejudice — capitalism is bad, and therefore associating “diet culture” with capitalism is a way of demonizing anyone who suggests you eat a salad instead of a double cheeseburger. Fat people are engaged in “a form of resistance” if they eat the cheeseburger with a large order of fries and a strawberry milkshake.

And is it even necessary to say Ali Thompson is a feminist?

 

The hijacking of civil-rights rhetoric — “discrimination” and “fat rights” — is as obvious as it is offensive. It is absurd to claim that fat people suffer “discrimination” analogous to Jim Crow, and what can feminism do to eliminate the “policing of fat bodies”? The self-evident purpose of this sloganeering is to convince fat people that their misfortunes are essentially political, that they are victims of oppression, in order to mobilize them to do . . . what? Vote Democrat?

 

The self-declared “Mean Fat Girl” wants to guilt-trip people for their alleged “fatphobia.” Stigmatizing ordinary preferences as irrational “phobia” is a tactic borrowed from gay-rights activists. “Homophobia” is a word coined for political purposes, implying that a preference for heterosexuality is wrong, and you see how Ali Thompson uses “fatphobia” to imply that the mere existence of thin people is oppressive.

 

The “pain,” “suffering” and “agony” of fat people is “inflicted” by thin people who are motivated by fear, Ali Thompson informs us. You see what extraordinary rhetorical jiu-jitsu is required by this effort to stigmatize thinness, to depict thin people as oppressors inspired by malign motives, responsible for “the pain inflicted on fat people.”

This is the “fat positive activism” that Ali Thompson solicits contributions for via Patreon, but it doesn’t seem very “positive,” does it?

She is now producing videos like this one, accusing critics of “hate” and claiming that “fat haters” are denying her humanity.

 

When fat activists point out that fat people are routinely discriminated against in our culture, the inevitable response is — well, if you don’t like being discriminated against, why don’t you just lose weight? . . .
I object to the entire framing of the issue that fat people should somehow have to prove to the people who hate us that we don’t deserve to be hated. It’s not my job to prove to you that I’m a person.
To even agree to debate my humanity is to lose, because I would have to agree that fat haters have any right to pass judgment on me.
I absolutely reject that idea. I will never agree to a framing that positions me as less than human or as somehow having to prove my humanity to anyone.

Who is questioning her “humanity”? But never mind — this rhetoric is merely preamble to Ali Thompson’s argument that dieting is futile, that there is no point in fat people even trying to lose weight: “Dieting doesn’t work. That’s simply a fact.” And you see this is essential to her argument that fat people, like gay people, constitute a special political class as victims of unjust discrimination: They’re born that way.

What is actually being targeted here is personal preference. If you think it is better to be thin than to be fat, you’re a “fat hater” and, because this preference is quite general in society, fat people are victims of “very obvious and public suffering,” according to Ms. Thompson. Her logic is entirely analogous to the LGBT lobby’s claim that gay people are oppressed by rampant societal “homophobia.” In both cases, activists seek to shame normal people for entirely normal preferences.

The victimhood mentality of “social justice warriors” (SJWs) is leveraged to bully people into silence. Characterizing a belief as “hate” is a way to make it impermissible to express that belief — a totalitarian project which seeks to prevent people from forming their own opinions and defending their own values, free from political coercion.

SJWS always require scapegoats to blame for their unhappiness.

 

Who is inciting “hate”? Unless you accept the liberal definition of “hate” (i.e., disagreeing with a liberal), you see that the real hate is coming from people like Ali Thompson, who have embraced an ideology that encourages an attitude of resentment and self-pity. Her entire worldview is based on believing herself to be a victim of “fat haters” and “cis men” with their “rudeness and aggression.” It is no coincidence that this attitude is integral to the identity-politics formula that is the organizing principle of the Democrat Party, whose 2016 presidential candidate has spent the past 18 months blaming everyone else for her defeat.

What’s an angry obese SJW to do?

 

Y’know, if Ali Thompson started a GoFundMe to leave America — $800 for a one-way ticket to Caracas, Venezuela — I’m sure it would succeed. Hunger is rampant in Venezuela and there’s no capitalism there.

Only socialism can cure the obesity epidemic — vote Democrat!

John Hawkins and Self-Inflicted Wounds

Posted on | July 24, 2018 | Comments Off on John Hawkins and Self-Inflicted Wounds

by Smitty

Hawkins brings us “5 Ugly Truths About Women That Young Men Need to Recognize“, and the operator is “young”. You should read the whole thing, lads, but focus on growing up ahead of, rather than through, such self-inflicted wounds.

Let’s review:
1. Beauty fades
It transitions, certainly. but I have seen plenty of women continue to glow right on through wrinkles and grey hair. And it’s not about getting work done and war paint. It’s about taking care of themselves and NOT comparing themselves to the cover of Cosmo.
Men are grey/fat/balding/falling apart, too. Get over it.

2. After your relationship ends, you may be surprised at the ruthless treatment you get
OK, I lived this one. And all I can say is: keep your distance until marriage. The advice I currently give to the young men is to hang out, and have a blast IN THE CHURCH GROUP. There’s nothing perfect about anyone, but what a great noise filter the group can be to keep the actual fun high, and stress low.

Hawkins goes on to explore status, stability, and hatred of weakness. Read the whole thing.

I just don’t think you can make any useful generalizations along those lines. What we’re really discussing here is maturity. While I think I perhaps waited too long to settle down, the key is to ensure that one is morally and mentally mature before getting to the point of committment.

Because that’s what’s at stake: the seriousness with which the marital oath is taken. Now, obviously, skipping out on that oath does not preclude becoming President [Bill Clinton joke goes here].

But you know what’s more important that being POTUS? Having joy under the sun. Avoiding stress. Knowing that, no matter what Southern Poverty Law Center says, you’re an honorable man.

Radical Feminist Exposes #TransCult

Posted on | July 24, 2018 | 1 Comment

It is difficult to exaggerate how radical Natasha Chart’s feminism is. She is chairwoman of the board of Women’s Liberation Front (WoLF), an organization that originated in Deep Green Resistance, which is just about as far left as you can go (without moving to Pyongyang).

It is therefore highly significant that Chart has joined the Hands Across the Aisle coalition, an effort to unite women across ideological boundaries in opposition to The Transgender Cult.

In a must-read article at The Federalist, Chart describes the harassment feminists have endured — including violence and bomb threats — for daring to dissent from transgender ideology:

  • Lesbian women have been pushed out of LGBT events and social groups, including groups they founded, for saying they wouldn’t consider male sex partners. . . .
  • Many women have been forced to resign, or were fired, like I was, or writers blacklisted, for dissent from a male-centered line on gender identity and the sex trade. . . .
  • During Pride month this year, a lesbian was beaten up outside of a drag show for being unwilling to lie about another woman’s biological sex. . . .
  • The weekend before London Pride, a small group of lesbians marched in the San Francisco Dyke March with gender-critical signs. They were assaulted, knocked over, their signs were stolen and torn. The march committee and the National Center for Lesbian Rights blamed the victims for the assaults. . . .
  • The Obama administration ended the effective right to single-sex accommodations for women in all crisis shelters, prisons, immigration detention centers, and publicly funded schools. . . .
  • A trans-identified male who protested the Michigan Women’s Music Festival, as a leader of “Camp Trans,” murdered two lesbians who used to attend the festival, and their son. . . .
  • All of us became nearly numb to the death threats, rape threats, directives to commit suicide, doxxings, and calls for women to be fired over gender politics, over social media. . . .

You can and should read the whole thing.
