bartlebyshop posted:Welcome to Phalanx, "a reactionary fraternity for the cultivation of masculine virtue and the development of social and moral capital." They plan to do such stirring masculine activities as "wing each other and support Patriarchy in our relationships" but also "study practical skills like coding, fixing stuff" and "history and old books." quote:Phalanx is not about collective action or activism in the perverse leftist sense. I've always loved it when people say poo poo like this. It's basically saying "We don't need to promote and make our case for what we believe in; anyone who isn't a feminized, liberal pussy will recognize our greatness and will be begging to come into our fold." Or to put it another way: quote:The plan is not to directly engage, but to become dangerously strong.

coyo7e posted:I have literally had a hardcore self-diagnosed aspergers conservative/libertarian/etc brag to me about how he was the captain of a yacht and a crew of dozens of men when he was in high school. Right now he's working at Gamestop and has a wife who's having her fourth or fifth miscarriage (she may or may not be dying her hair to match the number of M-C's) because, well, being a cashier at gamestop is apparently the epitome of solid family-starting time when you're an ubermensch. I feel terrible saying this, but any chance they aren't actually miscarriages?

Polybius91 posted:I've heard Lord of the Rings brought up in relation to DE types before. How exactly does it fit in? I mean, I'm fairly sure most of the messages in LotR (anti-industrialism and the dangers of pursuing power in particular) would be repellent to a bunch of nerds who want to be machine gods torturing the poors with dust specks for their own amusement or whatever. I'm pretty sure one or a couple of them have touted the idea that the war between the orcs and the other races was basically multiculturalism vs. human biodiversity.

Merdifex posted:Neoreactionary argues, poorly, that white flight is ethnic cleansing. Is this any different from standard WN "white genocide" bullshit? I don’t agree with your analysis of why whites left the cities. It fails on several accounts. First, the promotion of non-reproductive sex and abortion has been targeted far more to blacks and hispanics. Abortion clinics and planned parenthoods are located in their neighborhoods for a reason. And they’ve been successful at their little project. Black fertility rates now hover just at replacement. Second, the type of white who does live in the city tends to be precisely the over educated careerist, that is, the Sex and the City type. So pushing education and careers isn’t what is pushing whites out of the cities. Third, cities are known for having lower birthrates then surrounding countryside and small towns. This is true worldwide and throughout history. It’s true in monoethnic Japan. It was true in ancient Rome. Fourth, cities are not good places to raise children. They’re like mouse utopia. Who the hell wants to live in a little box stacked on other boxes? Cities are crowded, dirty, noisy, crime ridden and dangerous. I think the reason most whites left was because they had the werewithal to do so. Crime and schools were probably the primary motivators. Your arguments hold up better if you are discussing overall white demographics for the whole nation, not just cities. Whites do have the lowest fertility rate of all groups, save Asians. Between that and inundating our country with non-white immigrants the progs will have succeeded beyond their wildest dreams: a white minority in America. I do hope the progs enjoy being stuffed in their crumbling cities with their new brown friends. When the whole thing blows they can burn with their cities.

Cingulate posted:The idea that a humanities education actually helps you help making the world a truly better place is highly speculative. Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous to think that learning about the human condition will actually help you better understand humanity. Hate Fibration posted:I actually find this unlikely. I have met a staggering amount of radical marxist mathematicians. And though my sympathies do not lie with anything that anyone would call radicalism, I think it's important to point out that the conservative bias you are perceiving in STEM chiefly stems(heh) from the T and E parts of that acronym. Engineers, like doctors, are actually more conservative, as a population than the general pop. Technology like-wise. I say this, mostly, to illustrate that treating STEM as a monolith is very much a mistake. TBF, when people talk about STEM fields (including people who are encouraging others to pursue them as a career) they are mostly talking about the T and E parts. Science and mathematics are undeniably important for tech and engineering (and really every other aspect of society), but they aren't the "more valuable" fields economically. This might also explain why a lot of the mathematicians you've met are more politically diverse. MizPiz has a new favorite as of 01:42 on Aug 28, 2015 |

Cingulate posted:No idea where you're coming from here. You're argument is basically that nothing less than a modular "make people good" lesson plan is the only way to prevent people from becoming egotistical assholes with a terrible worldview. This is not only impossible, it's laughable to even think it's something that can be solved. As Jack Gladney alluded to, Humanities teaches you that humans are complex beings that can't (and shouldn't) be treated like a car engines with definable problems that can be "solved" using a step-by-step solution. You're right that teaching it won't automatically make people into good human beings, but, as the quote you've been using ad nauseam says, it's the best solution since it exposes kids to cultures and ideas they wouldn't otherwise know about and shows that there isn't a magic cure for the issues plaguing humanity.

Political Whores posted:I think forcing integration would probably work better. Don't let people shield their children in bubbles. It will matter a whole lot more than whatever mediocre introduction to politics and history an elementary or high school teacher can provide. Especially when it comes to empathy for people lower on the economic totem pole, for which I find humanities students aren't much better than business school assholes about. That would be better, but it's a far less realistic solution. It might be possible in a dense urban environment (i.e. places where exposure to people with different backgrounds can potentially happen naturally), but being able to do it in suburban and rural locations would also require such a radical restructuring of society that it might as well be a pipe-dream.

Sham bam bamina! posted:I read that whole post and still have no idea what the name is supposed to mean. Jezebel was spiteful and bloodthirsty, not promiscuous. Spiteful is definitely true, but she was bloodthirsty only inthat she wasn't above having people killed to get what she wanted (which by old testament standards was incredibly tame). On the other hand, she's basically been used as the symbol for a power-hungry whore since she was introduced in Hebrew texts. Basically, she's the model that Neoreactionaries think every woman with ambition follows.

Heresiarch posted:Believing that an obscure and short-lived political subforum can enact such sweeping cultural changes must actually be somewhat comforting to this person, because it gives him hope that his own obscure clique may one day achieve relevance. They absolutely have a "we're the silenced prophets" attitude about themselves. Whether or not they think they'll eventually become the vanguards of the (counter?) revolution or looked back as an "ahead of his time" genius varies from person to person.
