Fidelbogen Speaks


Alek, are you beginning to understand why I personally have discarded the label “MRA”?

The root of this whole mess lies in the chaotic beginnings of political opposition to feminism. There was never any committee of advanced thinkers who sat down and drew up a central plan.

There was never any VANGUARD.

The whole thing just GREW. . . and it grew chaotically. And that is why we have such a mess nowadays.

If a few wise heads had had the foresight to draw up a manifesto or mission statement circa 2003, then we would at least have a stable point of reference.

Then, people could point to that statement and say “THAT is what “MRA” means, even if certain individuals have deviated.”

Of course, MRA is merely ad hoc terminology. No stable meaning was ever assigned to it in early days. The reason for this, I think, is that “MRA” was never meant to be anything but an umbrella word. Or a big tent word.

Well, when you set up a big tent and leave the door open, be prepared for the company you might be forced to keep.

BTW, Alex, I am still pondering upon that “PUA” article that we discussed some time ago, and I will indeed be writing it (and youTubing it).

I am more convinced than ever that the PUA movement is a big leech and a bad political bedfellow. Basically, I view that whole sector as parasitical, opportunist, and reactionary. Throw in “counter-revolutionary” while you’re at it.

In a nutshell, they prey upon fear. And they are selling men a kind of “drug” which does not attack the root of men’s problems in today’s world. It offers only a “buzz” which lets men ignore those problems, so that the problems grow bigger and more entrenched.

BTW: Check out the idiot who commented on my latest YouTube.

At a discussion about SWB testing out Roissy's moderation tactics...
Alek to SWB: But he [Roissy] obviously did notice your comment, since he manually placed your ip and identifiers on the moderation queue.
Right, the mere fact that you go from not being moderated into being moderated means he noticed you. It is NOT TRUE that [as a roissy fan claimed] all comments are moderated. Sometimes even your first comment will not be posted in its entirety. I wrote a comment once lauding him (for honesty) for admitting that game is pussy begging but worth it to get *the exquisite pleasure of sex with beautiful women* and he left out half the comment to give a misleading impression and commented on the rest. He has absolutely no intellectual integrity whatsoever. He mocks others but is particularly averse to posting any mockery of him – in the above example, I said something like * thanks for admitting game is begging but worth it for the – as you say in your inimitable teenager who has not gotten over the novelty of sex style – *exquisite pleasure of sex with beautiful women*, etc, etc…* He cut that part out He is so insecure that he cant even take gentle ribbing After responding to my comment, he REFUSED to post a LENGTHY rebuttal to his response and any subsequent comments. Another thing besides leaving the FIRST critical comment that he does is allow a certain amount of minor unintelligent criticism of game to get posted. Anything that is obviously intelligent and serious criticism of him or game he will HEAVILY censor. Anything that makes a convincing point against game gets censored. But some guy lashing out stupidly might get posted – it makes game and him look good.

Splicing comments together, approving sections of comments that make him look good, editing comments sentence by sentence… Good old roissy… Managing a cult is not easy work. How the fuck does this guy even get the time to have a life? I can’t even post more than 1 unedited rant every 2 days and still have a life. This fucker posts newspaper quality writing columns PLUS manually reviews and manages hundreds of comments a day. I guess what they say about him being a hermit is true… Maybe if he left the house, he’d finally get laid, sigh… then again, that’s good advice for most gamers.

How To Respond To "You're Privileged" Bullcrap
Stoner With A Boner Says:

Well, next time you are at a blog and someone says “you are so privileged.” Just fire back like this:

How do you know? Have you ever walked a day in my shoes? I doubt I can use my so called “privilege” to buy an expired soda at the 99 cent store. Is there an official criteria you are using or are you just making this up as you go along?

This is the definition I found on an online dictionary:

a right or immunity granted as a peculiar benefit, advantage, or favor : prerogative; especially : such a right or immunity attached specifically to a position or an office

Really I don’t know what definition you are using but I suspect that it is not in good faith and you are only engaging in “Identity Politics” as a way to discredit my words. I am here to debate ideas, not to be trampled on.
