By Mike Buchanan: British men and boys have been increasingly insulted and
demonised over the past 50 years by angry vociferous women driven by
misandry (hatred of men). Men’s and boys’ interests have been ever more
assaulted by the actions and inactions of politicians seeking to placate
those women, particularly over the past 30 years, with no democratic mandate to do so.
Conservative and Labour governments have been equally bad in this
respect, and the current Conservative-led coalition is the worst of them
all, with David Cameron slavishly following policy directions set by
Harriet Harman and other gender feminist politicians over the past 30
years.
Men collectively pay 72% of the state’s income tax revenues, while
women collectively pay only 28% and receive disproportionately far more
from the state in return. Men pay a total of £64 billion more income tax annually than women, yet they’re increasingly ignored and disadvantaged by the state they largely finance.
We’re receiving support (and donations) not only from men, but also
from women, who believe (as we do) in equality of opportunities for men
and women rather than equality of outcomes, which require
anti-meritocratic social engineering initiatives to deliver, cause
considerable damage to the fabric of a civilised society, and result in
justifiable resentment among men who are unfairly disadvantaged.
By Janet Bloomfield (aka JudgyBitch): Let’s
get Hanna’s motivations clear right from the get-go, shall we? Hanna
Rosin is not interested in equality. She is interested in dominance.
Female dominance. Nothing more, and nothing less. From the author’s own website:
I come from a long line of matriarchs, women who either
ruled over their husbands, or ran away from them. My mother is an
intimidating figure. She has always served as the neighborhood watchdog,
taking on bullies and running the co-op board with an iron fist. If you
met her, it would be obvious why I was open to possibility of female
dominance, because she embodied it long before it became the defining
trend of our era.
Hanna acknowledges that female dominance is a central part of her
understanding of how the world works, and that female dominance has
become the defining trend of our era. Well, kudos to Hanna for at least being honest.
RT: Glenn Greenwald, the investigative journalist who first published
Edward Snowden leaks, said that the NSA whistleblower still has "a huge
number of very significant stories to reveal," including those relating
to Israel.
"There definitely are stories left that involve the Middle
East, that involve Israel. The reporting is going to continue at
roughly the same pace that has been happening," the former
Guardian journalist said in an interview with Channel 10
television station that aired Monday night.
"I don’t want to preview any stories that aren’t yet
published, but it’s definitely the case that there are a huge
number of very significant stories that are left to report,"
the Brazil-based Greenwald said, adding that the journalists will
continue releasing stories "at roughly the same pace that has
been happening."
"We have only had these documents for seven months, which,
given their volume and complexity, is not a very long time,"
he noted.
We’ve had don’t vote. Now I suggest don’t throw away, and don’t buy: just fix
By John Ward: The last two days have been mild and sunny here, and what this tends
to do is make normal human beings want to get out among all things
natural. Doing so in turn increases one’s self-esteem, and enables us to
tackle tricky jobs we’ve been putting off, whether indoors or out.
One of these – small but tedious – involved a wire-based switch on a
lamp of which I’m very fond. The lamp has a nice mock-Aztec beaten metal
base, and so of course I wasn’t about the throw it out on the basis of a
switch that has ceased to switch. It is, always in my experience,
simply a contact-plate that his gone out of line.
Now in case you hadn’t noticed, these days all such switches are
sealed. They used to have simple screw-holes in them allowing one to fix
anything quickly. But that was before the era of Neoliberal Output
Targets (NOT). These insist that Thou shalt NOT repair something, for
this represents a crime against the shareholder dividend in that no
further units are sold. So the screws have disappeared, to be replaced
by an incabloc seal.
The excuse is safety, and an excuse it all it is….because even the
most dumbed-down of today’s consumers know how to fix such a thing
without electrocuting themselves. But the idea itself is insane: because
a tiny metal strip costing 0.001 Yuan has moved a bit, one must throw
away a €60 lamp. Imagine driving into a car service bay because the horn
wasn’t working, only to be told, “Sorry squire…you need a new car”.
fidelbogen: "When all else fails, blame the patriarchy."
By AVfM: Youtube
icon Fidelbogen takes the radical notion that all human beings have a
dark side, and that feminism liberates the dark side of half the human
race, leaving almost no accountability for it at all.
By Anja Eriud: One
of the favourite myths of feminism is that ALL women were oppressed
everywhere by ALL men – and that the mechanism by which men oppressed
women was marriage.
Ah yes, in secret patriarchy meetings all over the known world,
scheming men got together to lay their nefarious plans to trap and
enslave these innocent and delicate flowers of womanhood into the bonds,
the cruel and tortuous chains of matrimony.
But, of course a few brave souls resisted, they struggled against
this demonic plot to entrap and enslave them, then of course they wrote
books about their “struggle.”
According to received “wisdom,” and in the context of anything that
emanates from the mouths or pens of feminists one does use the word
“wisdom” with a large dose of irony, this nefarious plot has been going
on for centuries, nay millennia.
For the purposes of this essay we shall confine ourselves to a quick
but focused examination of some specific periods. Because after all, if
feminists are correct, then like blindly putting a pin in a map with
your eyes closed, wherever we landed in the timeline of human history we
would reveal examples of this ongoing and nefarious patriarchal plot to
enslave poor helpless damsels in the chains of matrimony. Makes sense,
doesn’t it?
Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss the Ka-Boom! and Ka-bust! the
economics of extinction in the UK property market as Thatcher's
slow-motion housing timebomb ticks away under the British economy where
demand continues to outstrip supply by a factor of two and where one
woman being forced out of social housing complains, "I'm sure if they
had their way they would kill us. I really believe that."
