Social Death Spiral: Evil Men

One of the areas that is commonly being attack is that of masculinity. With the rise of intersectionalist and the rise of collectivism, it seems that what kind be viewed as common traits associated with this side of the spectrum are viewed as being evil and must be stomped out. Many who are already comfortable with their identity are not going to have a problem with masculine traits since they have either been thought how to work with them or they are someone who has already been accepted by the people around them. The issue with this is that it has a real negative effect on young males who are trying to understand how their hard-wiring works and how they have to go about integrating it so they can function in society.

When someone who is trying to integrate the masculine parts into their own persona and they only thing that they are seeing is the demonizing of a gender or the traits associated with the gender, you can place a safe bet that once they grow up they are going to end up becoming the persona of the things that people are complaining about. You can’t fight against nature but you can learn how to control it and how to use it in a way that helps not just the person in question but the people around them as well.

Evolution and Hard-wiring

Biology and evolution when it comes to these types of discussions are issues that tend to be overlooked greatly and this could be one of the reasons why we are not seeing an advancement in the discussions that surround any topic related to the concept of the masculine in Western Culture. The current narrative that is being promoted by many within the MSM is that the western world is overly oppressive because it is based on a system that sees males as the dominate force. While you can look at the historical record and find parts of the narrative of different places where an argument could be made that proves this theory, it is not something that is going to hold out everywhere you go and as time progresses on things do end up balancing out. That is not to mean that they're aren't issues and with what seems to be a counter movement to this narrative growing, it is important to make sure that the goal of these movements is the promotion of a healthy form and not a faux form.

To understand what the masculine role is going to be in the new world that is coming it is important to look back at the start of the human race and to acknowledge that the hard-wiring that has been used for generations is still there and if it is something that is going to go away it will be an extremely long time before it happens. More than likely this is just one of the things that should be excepted and instead of demonizing allow for to be nurtured in a healthy fashion and not by the suppression of these traits.

Before analyzing the role of males in tribal society and on; you have to first look at the importance nature itself has put on the gender. Evolution is a long test about what traits are and are not going to be useful when it comes to the species and in some cases a gender in the wild could end up being deemed of less value then the other. That doesn’t mean there is no practical value nor meaning, just that with the way the rules of the game are set up one is more important to protect then the other. A single female with a few males is able to repopulate the human species, where as a single male with numerous females means that at some point the gene pool is going to collapse and the species is going to end up going extinct. With this simple fact it can become easier to see which one of the genders is going to need to be safe if the population is going to continue.

This biological fact not only gives us a glimpse into what the natural world has set down but it also gives us a starting point when it comes to looking at the different personality traits that are common and different between the two genders. With the need to ensure that women and children are kept safe it ended up falling on the males of any given tribe to go hunting and to defend the village from any hostile force that shows up. In order for this task to be accomplished in a successful manner, males needed to develop in a different way that would allow for them to be stronger and more aggressive then the foes that they might end up facing. On the flip side, because women would find themselves in more of a social setting, they would need to develop in manner that would work best for that environment and these two different evolutionary paths are why we are having the confusion between what it means to be a man that we are having today.

After generations of this kind of existence and with what we perceive as a slow development of civilization, we have gotten to a point in our history where the threats that once seemed to be lurking outside of our doors are no longer there and through the a change in the cultural zeitgeist and a period where the amount of struggling has decreased we find ourselves with the question; what do we do with this primitive hardware? What is the best way to ingrate the old with the new and not have it end in a disastrous manner?

The Peter Pan Meme

If we are to look at what the current trend that has been going on, we can consider it to be the Peter Pan meme. Peter Pan is a story about a group of young boys nicknamed the Lost Boys; who live in a land where they never have to grow old. They can spend their days forever as children and never have to take up the responsibility that comes from growing up. The enemy in this story is an old man who is forever being chased by a gator who has a clock in his belly reminding not just the old man being chased but all of us that no matter what time is going to catch up with us and with that will come death itself.

Today many men if they were to take an honest look at themselves would find themselves filling the roll of the Lost Boys more than being a fully developed man. Instead of taking up the mantel of responsibility that comes with being a grown man, instead they withdraw into society and cling to anything that can justify them not having to take part in any thing around them. We see this when we look at various communities such as incels or to a certain extent the MGTOW community. While there is such a thing as manipulative women who are going to destroy a man any way they can, the truth is not everyone falls into this boat. For many with this kind of view it stems more them not understanding both the difference in the genders and how to move past things that end up causing harm to them. Far too often people live more in the past then looking towards the future and you can see this same mentality playing out with in these kinds of communities.

The Social Media Man

Like with many facets of culture, social media has been having a negative impact on not just peoples’ views but also on how they perceive themselves. With more and more men finding themselves to be more nomads in their own worlds, the need to find a mentor or truth sayer is starting to permeate the physicy more and more. With this need being present there has been a growing trend of people using social media to reach out to these people. While the intent of the people doing this might be different from person to person; the truth is if there is money to be had there are going to be people who are going to jump onto the band wagon and cash in on the flavor of the day.

The social media is really the same as the Thot. The difference between this two is really just on the surface level. Once you start peeling back the layers it will be revealed to you that it’s the same foundation with a different house put on top of it. Just like the thought gives off the illusion of being attractive and teases their viewers with dream that maybe one day they can be with them or a woman like them, so does the followers of the social media man see these carpetbaggers. The main difference is that the person following the social media isn’t looking force a relationship like the person following the thought, rather they are either living their lives through the accounts of these people or they are taking their money and attempting to become a carbon copy of these people. There is nothing wrong with wanting to better yourself the problem comes from when you put your trust into someone who has an invested interest in selling you whatever product is sponsoring their content. Sometimes this is an outside company other times it is either a book they have written or some other form of media that they do.

One of the ways that you can tell when you come across someone like this is to look at the number of selfies and what the image is that they are portraying in these selfies. Are they being honest or are they crafting everything to appear as being the pinnacle of a mythological man? The more perfect the image or message the more you should be on guard since nothing on this plane exists in that kind of state. The herd mentality or the speed at which memes can spread throughout social media helps reinforce these kinds of images. Many times, the person you are looking at is much more flawed then the person who is viewing the content and they’re going with the fake it until they make it approach. Another way to think about it is like this; are they repeating things you find on bumper stickers or are they really hamming it up when it comes to how manly they really? Chances are if they are doing either it is really them trying to counter the insecurities they have and are just using the platform to help reinforce the narcissistic drive the everyone has to struggle with when they are using these platforms.

The other trend besides being the manliest man out there is threat of being the perfect father. This is something that you are going to see generally with people who might disagree with left wing politics or they are also feeling like they are being stigmatized or shunned in a culture they spend their lives in growing up in. You’ll notice they’ll post pictures and take videos of them with their kids in either the fashion that you would expect from a Hallmark commercial or the videos they post are what you would expect with home movies. The types of films that are only pulled out during family gatherings and not the kind that you would pull out when your drinking buddies are stopping by for a visit. While there is a chance that these types of posts are going to garner a good amount of positive feedback from the people who are following the big question should be what is the true intent of posting these kinds of things? Why is it important for people to see you taking part in these kinds of activities when it’s something that is already expected of you as a father?

Like with most things in this sphere, the answer is because this is the image that they want everyone to think of when their name is mentioned. Behind the scenes the person posting the home movies and leaving captions on them about how they’re teaching their kids the right way could be going through some of custody battle and they’re hoping that the social media activity could help them out or it could also be that they going to easy way and fabricating the image so they don’t have to put in the time needed to raise their kids the right way. It almost goes without saying; if you're focusing on your kids you might not have a whole lot of time to craft the perfect post that portrays the self-image that the person in question wishes was true.

One of the reasons that I bring up the social media man and more so the father on Facebook is that this way of thinking runs counter to the responsibilities that have been hardwired into men. The need to protect for the family is the biggest one of these that is being violated. By posting these kinds of images you are in a sense showing the entire world who your family is, what places that you like to go with them and the kinds of things that your kid is into. From all of the arrests we have seen of predators over the last view years it should become very clear that with every good thing the internet gives us there is a darker element that is there to balance it out. As a culture we view many of the things on the internet as novelties and not in the light that we really should. Our personal information is always being sent everywhere and it is not overly difficult for someone to find that information for their own personal gain. If you’re just sharing with family members or your using social media as a way to promote your skills or business then you are using the platforms correctly but if it comes down to the crafting of an image you are only hurting not just yourself but the people around you as well. Even a simple motivational page could be actually having the followers losing their self-esteem and the positive reinforcement loop that suckers most users in is only driving them further down.

The Male Feminist

This is one of the more deceitful and it’s also one of the more dangerous things to be on the lookout for. While promoting equal rights is a good thing, there is a difference when it comes to an ideology that gives the wolf a way to wear the fur of the sheep. 3rd wave feminism is different than the previous waves. Instead of being able to properly explain what the issues might be or even acknowledge the progress that has been made over the years, it has instead turned into a more authoritarian movement where truth is only a problem in the way of furthering the goals of the people in question. Many things that have either been debunked or turned to be flat out lies have been shunned and people who bring up the points find themselves at the end of a firing squad belong to the strange tapestry of techno-fascists that are dominating much of the conversation right now.

So, what does any of that have to do with the male feminist? Anyone who might attach this label to them either are someone who might be a true believes but more often or not they are viewing these ideas as a way for them to score brownie points with the opposite gender. The talking points are treated as nothing more the pillow talk and the same tendency towards violence and lust that is hardwired in the brain of the male are still there. There have been a countless string of stories coming out not just about “men” in this grouping lashing out and assaulting what they refer to as their allies. In some cases, even larger feminists' publications have run stories warning people to be on guard with these kinds of people because the common trend that has been showing itself is that these are predators using whatever means they can to catch what they perceive as their prey.

Like the social media, the male feminist also uses his social media profiles to project the image that he wants the world to see. He’ll share memes that you would end finding on female profiles and he will jump at every chance he can to come off as knight in shining armor against anyone who might be either on the fence about issues or in disagreement on things. His goal isn’t to boost himself up but it’s to manipulate people into trusting him. Like the perfect man for men, the male feminist it the perfect ally to women everywhere. He has no flaws and understands the plight of the gender more than the average guy. No one can compare to how virtuous he is.

The Mass Shooter

To better explain this, it’s easiest to use the stereotype of the mass shooter. This happens to be on the majority of occasions (in the United States) to be a young white male still in high school or either because of being bullied or being rejected by a crush feels the need to project his pain on as many people as he possibly can. The question is why does someone want to do that? Is it because the person themselves is just a bad apple or does it have to do with not learning how to control the physically more aggressive side that is stronger with males then it is females? Rejection is something that everyone has to learn to cope with and there is nothing wrong with being upset with the first time you have to deal with it, the response that most people would agree with is to not let it get the better of you and to focus on moving on past that. For adults that is a much easier task to do then it is for a teenager who has testosterone running through their bodies for the first time. That hormone does increase the possibility of violence and can make someone act out in a much more physically outward fashion. That doesn’t mean that it has no place in society just that part of the responsibility that rests with fathers is to teach the younger generation how to go about controlling it. A man who is able to fight and defend what they have to but can control themselves is much more useful to everyone then the person who has no self-control and the same inclinations as the former.

So, what does any of this have to do with mass shooters? It’s an explanation for how weak these people really on, not on the psychical level but on the mental level. These are people who have never had the ability to toughen up in a fashion that works with the way males are built and is in sync with nature. Instead of being able to develop the skills that are needed to function in the world, instead they are thrown messages that either place them into being the group of monsters or they are simply dismissed as just being special and in time they will come around. While there are people that are born with something wrong with their mind and the majority of people struggling with these ideas will at some point over come, there is a small percentage who will end up manifesting these things in a very violent manner.

When a young person finds themselves lost in a cloud of darkness which ends up being related to the environment around the natural instinct is to find either someone way to overcome it or in some fashion escape it. For some overcoming it may be working hard or the escapism could come from the form of artistic ventures or from something where they have to compete with other people. For the ones who are not able to do either one of those they look for heroes that they end up projecting themselves on. This type of projection tends to come from people who have committed horrible crimes and they tend to view themselves as either part of this trend or that they have the ability to leave their mark by out doing what these pseudo idols have managed to accomplish.

Now this is the part where this mentality ends up going up to a level that the average person while experiencing to a certain extent, doesn’t reach the same level as these individuals who are suffering from what can be best described as an identity crisis and that is pure resentment. The anger that ends up getting build up in these people ends up reaching levels that are almost impossible for other people to reach. Sometimes it comes from internal factors while other times its external factors.

An internal factor would be the Newtown shooter. This here was a troubled kid who had been raised in an environment in which the cause of his trouble came from an outside force. The culture in which this kid lived in was one aimed at tearing him down and at any moment it could come down all together. This viewpoint mixed with the shooters own health issues lead him to feel the need to take action. Why he picked the school and to have children as the target is still up for debate but his goal was to inflict as much pain as he could and to take revenge on a world that had done him wrong.

An external factor would be that of the Columbine shooters. These kids came from well to do backgrounds and because they were viewed as different, they were shunned by their peers and in turn this caused them to grow the same kind of resentment that can be found with the Newtown shooter only the reasoning is different with these two. While the Newtown shooter was looking to extract revenge on the world at large, Columbine they were only looking to cause harm to the groups who they viewed as taking the first blow against them. No matter what the line of reasoning may or may not be, the common thread is that whatever ended up leading to these events it evolved into a nihilistic state of resentment that anyone person can up becoming possessed by.

Where the Real Fault Is

This is going to be the part that is going to really upset people mostly because it’s going to fill the role of a mirror being held up to everyone. There are two main factors that come into play here and the first is the MSM. The media has for a very long time had this unwritten code that when you have a choice to cover a story of a drowning kid or something involving a gun, always go with the gun. The general public has a fear of fire arms and when you have something like a mass shooting, this makes for great ratings for the news networks. They ignore any facts surrounding the case unless those that can best be used to whip up panic with everyone. Plastering these kinds of stories around and giving them the front and center part of the daily coverage gives potential threats not just ideas on how they can also pull it off, but it acts as an inspiration for them. These shooters end up acting like pseudo heroes for them and their goals change into falling into the footsteps of those who seem to have struck back against the same enemies that they had.

The second problems rests with the parents of these kids. Many times, right after you see this occur you are going to find many family members saying that they didn’t notice any signs that these people where becoming unhinged or that they figured it was just a phase. This doesn’t mean that these parents don’t care about the well-being of their child, but rather they are just the byproduct of a society that has opted out to live in a dream instead of excepting the reality of the world around them. When you here about a mass shooter with a hate for women running down a group of college co-eds, that is a person who had never been taught how to handle to rejection or how to go about becoming attractive to people of the opposite sex. This is a task that the father should be filling, if he is neglecting his kid or is trying to play the role of friend more than guide he is going to find that it isn’t difficult for someone who is still trying to figure out how to navigate in the world to fall down darker paths and in some cases they won’t be able to get up again.

Can it Be Fixed

Since the 1980s there has been a trend with American culture where parents have taken less and less of a role in the lives of their children. It started off with the day care movement and as the cost of child care continued to raise public schools came to replaces these places as a way for parents to get rid of their kids for a little bit. Traditional schools would handle some a child’s education with the mother and father focusing more on their behavior and preparing for whatever life may end up throwing their way. Today this is not the case. There has been this obsession with sheltering kids from the world at large and doing everything possible to try and get rid of anything that may hurt them along the way. It should come as no surprise then that many people growing up are not gaining the life skills nor strength needed to handle the chaos that can come from just being alive. While there is official study into this, since we have had the politically correct safety culture on the rise it does seem like these kinds of incidents have been occurring and more with very little signs that they are going to be slowing down.

In order to really put an end to these kinds of things the priority of the news outlets is going to have to change. Instead of using these kinds of events as a way to increase viewership or to get more shares on social media, they should be given as little time as possible if any so they stop inspiring copy cats to follow suit. There are even online communities where the members worship these kinds of mass killers as if they are some kind of demi gods.

The other thing that the media needs to stop is demonizing masculinity to the extent that it does. When these kinds of people who already dealing with these emotions of anger and resentment, seeing news stories where it seems like no matter what their gender is going to make people hate them even more will just push them further down the rabbit hole of this kind of dark obsession. Instead of promoting the idea that its men vs women or that one gender is better than the other, the healthier message is one of cooperation and true equality. Not an equality in which on is a protected class that cannot be criticized.

The most important thing that can really happen however, is that parents take on the responsibility of raising them kids themselves. The things that males and females need to learn about you are not going to find in the school system, especially now a days with school becoming a hot bed of identity politics. What they need to learn is how to stay on their own and how to be strong enough to take on anything that may come their way. By always letting your kid win or caving into his demands you are breeding a mindset that isn’t going to survive once they leave your home. When reality destroys the idea that they are special it ends up opening a pandoras box of emotions and without proper guidance you end up having these kids fall past the point of redemption. The state and laws are not going to correct this problem. Tuning out of the MSM and taking on the responsibility of raising your own kid is going to be what fixes the problem. For parents the fine line is going to be not wanting to admit that maybe their child isn't perfect and they might have to do a little bit more work or push their own egos aside to ensure the development of their kids' mind is a healthy one.
