You would refer to the massively outdated report cobbled together when GWAS was not even a thing?

Goddamn, I remember reading this "interview" before, and just as I remember, it got really sexist and really creepy real quick. The main point that's brought up over and over is about how HBD chick is a female and a scientific racist, which the science of scientific racism explicitly disallows. And along all the other pseudoscience in the interview, she has to provide an evo-psych based explanation for why most women aren't scientific racists.

To be fair to the Daily Heil, they probably would have a better chance of getting face time with Roosh than most papers.

I really kind of hope that Roosh V sics his dudes on the Daily Mail, because the resulting comments-section war may finally convince holdouts of the fundamental toxicity and uselessness of Internet comments sections. If Roosh can somehow slay that particular Hydra, I will think well of him for exactly ten earnest seconds before returning to my default attitude of disgusted scorn for him.

Now he looks like this quote:In an important sense, I think revisionism simply refers to the ongoing process of investigating and interpreting history. It’s like when we were kids and we learned that Pluto was the ninth planet from the sun. Now it’s just a rock, or a proto-planet, or whatever. Only I just read where they’ve discovered that Pluto has moons. Does that mean it will be promoted to planet status again? I don’t know, but I wouldn’t be surprised. "I didn't know Pluto had a moon and therefore the Holocaust never happened"

Internet comment sections are amazing. Never have so many fish packed themselves into such a tiny barrel. Occasionally they'll have real names next to their idiocy. Free speech is the best, what kind of monster doesn't like ASCII dongs interrupting serious conversations about how you never used to see this sort of thing. Are you European?

Chip Smith posted:Though I know her only through email correspondence, I am more than reasonably convinced – by firsthand eyewitness accounts, among other nuances – that, contrary to one tenacious strand of web lore, HBD Chick really is a female representative of the species, complete with ovaries, appropriate estrogen levels, an emoticon-dense writing style, and, I like to imagine, a menagerie of stuffed animals adorably huddled on her bedroom dresser.

I've been betaing it and it is a truly glorious 50,000 word shitpost. I look forward to the final result, then I can legitimately crib the good bits everywhere I go. Phil has also made me interested in reading anything whatsoever Land has written, and Phyl-Undhu is hilarious if you know the dramatis personae, i.e. LessWrong and its tropes.

As hilarious as this will be, I wish Phil would continue the SNES Project, his ritual to destroy Gamergate. Light being an alien invader sounds like a Doctor Who plot, maybe a Moffat one, and since Phil wrote the TARDIS Eruditorium he's probably unable to avoid thinking in those terms. quote:I've just gotten to the final section of the book I'm now calling Neoreaction: A Basilisk. Plans for release exist, and it'll be out sooner than you think. Indeed, probably sooner than Last War in Albion Book One, though I got the first set of pages for that off to Jane this week as well. Now to confront the horror that is "Fearful Symmetry." http://www.eruditorumpress.com/blog/saturday-waffling-february-6th-2016/ Count Chocula has a new favorite as of 12:56 on Feb 7, 2016 |

None of these dudes try to make themselves gay. The MGTOW have given up on relationships with women, in the same way that an Eskimo has given up trying to get an all over tan.

I'm confused about what Aurini means by "we will replace you". At first I thought he meant the self conscious white males would outbreed the cucked homo liberals. But that doesn't seem to be it (especially considering the strict no-babies policy of PUA). It does sound vaguely threatening I guess. E.: little white cuck ball

MGTOW are also relentlessly, infamously terrible at actually going their own way, instead of loudly proclaiming how they're going their own way and then sticking around to complain. They're like the long Midwest goodbye of neoreaction: standing in front of the door, saying oh, they've got to go and abandon this corrupt society, they don't need women, and do you think it's best to take I-10 Our Own Way? Did I give you that magazine article I found about how all women are bitches? Hold on, it's in my purse...

To me the funny thing about MGTOW is that it's an aviation acronym predating the MRA movement: Maximum Gross Takeoff Weight. It's the loaded weight above which the airplane's design performance is insufficient to guarantee safe takeoff. All kinds of easy jokes in there.
