The 425 Episode 20

Documenting a World on Fire

Greetings, gentlemen. I hope your holidays are full of God’s blessings. If you noticed the gap in my content recently, there’s a reason for it. To be honest, I’ve been struggling for what to say. It’s not really for a lack of words, though. I’ve been writing on men’s issues since 2008, and sure enough there are still enough challenges that men face to fill a substantial library. Indeed, as it applies to men generally speaking, all those issues have either seen no change or they’ve worsened. Men are still tied to society’s whipping post. They are still getting divorce-raped in the corrupt and biased family courts, as often headed by conservative judges as they are by dedicated leftists. They are still being alienated from their children, financially and reputationally destroyed, and driven to destructive ends like alcoholism, suicide, and violence.

Men still bear the socially and legally enforced responsibility of subsidizing even the most irresponsible women’s lives, either through social pressure as so-called protectors and providers, or by the taxation and redistribution of their income to women, so many of whom have become de facto wards of the state. When pregnant, those same women are afforded the luxury to publicly ponder their choices on social media, wondering if the child will be a girl or an abortion.

To date, men and boys are still the majority of the homeless, the majority of those impaired by addiction and alcoholism, the majority of suicides, the majority of workplace deaths, the majority of the falsely accused and falsely imprisoned, the majority of crime victims, including child murder, and they remain the target of choice for feminists who are committed to the idea that men deserve no help and no recognition of their problems whatsoever. The government still takes money from men and uses it to pay Jezebel to breed with thugs who can’t or won’t care for children.

By word and deed man hating ideologues still reveal an obvious agenda to harm men and boys on every level of their existence. Oh wait, did I say Ideologues? My bad. It isn’t just ideologues. Statistically speaking, it’s everyone. That scant list of things I mentioned, which is light years from complete, won’t even raise the average eyebrow. Simply put, nobody cares. Either by direct action or omission, everyone is part of the problem.

When we look down at the lives of men from the aerial view, we see a society that uses and exploits them with what can only be called depraved indifference. It get’s worse. Blinded by romantic gynocentrism, men line up and compete with each other for the opportunity to be used and exploited, and to shame other men into the same self-destructive behavior. When the man is used up, when there is no more to take, he’ll be cast aside as though it were his job to be destroyed. And then he’ll indoctrinate his son into the same mentality that brought him down. That’s how complete the problem is, and the gynocentric brainwashing that enables it.

But here’s the thing. Almost all of this exploitation and abuse is chosen. I mean that literally. I estimate that over 90+% of the most challenging problems that men face can be avoided by men deciding that they are, in fact, human beings, not rodents flinging themselves off the edge of a cliff. I know for a fact that I never had a real problem related to women that didn’t start with the women I chose to be with. Things worked out much better for me with women when I held myself savagely accountable for those choices. Other than supplementing women’s horrible life choices with my tax money, and a prostate the size of a tennis ball, I’m no longer suffering due to any issues as a man.

Our solutions are simple and readily attainable, even as they elude most men. Reject the romantic ethos and the gynocentrism that fuels it. Develop and maintain a values-centered approach to life is fueled by common sense, self-preservation and self-respect. Stop being a slave to women and treat yourself like you actually matter. That’s about the sum of it.

Now, at this point I estimate that I’ve written and published somewhere around a million words on this subject, nearly all of them coming back to those last few points. In fact, I think every all of it boils down to that last, single sentence. Stop being a slave to the women and treat yourself like you actually matter. It’s a simple idea to write about so exhaustively, but that’s what I did.

Now, for some reason I thought when I started this Substack as a recently minted Christian that the calculus on addressing men’s issues from this angle would change. After all, it took very little study of the Bible to know that men who live by the Word of God, not as heard from feminized clergy but as found in the actual scriptures, insulate themselves from the greatest threats they face from women and the society that so mindlessly enables their evil behavior. It also enriches their lives beyond measure, much more than just avoiding pitfalls with women.

But what I’ve found, present company excluded of course, is that Christian men are even more committed to a nearly psychotic view of women, and to steadfastly follow the Way of the Simp. The average Christian man will read Proverbs 31 and conclude he needs to go buy his nagging, shrew of a wife a diamond tennis bracelet just to remind her of how much he loves her and how important she is. Yeah, like that man’s wife needs a reminder of her importance. While you’re at it, remind Elon Musk that he’s smart and has a lot of money. Maybe remind Donald Trump he got re-elected, just in case he forgot.

And of course, when that Christian wife gets around to divorcing her husband, which the numbers say she will, the church will circle wagons around her in support, and the men in the congregation will gather to bend him over the altar. They’ll help him turn both cheeks, posteriorly speaking. And they’ll assure him that Jesus wants him to take the sadistic pegging he’ll get from the wife and the state. When I say, “divorce-rape,” that’s exactly what I mean.

So, brothers, I said all that to say this. After a good measure of prayer, and a lot of time spent over the keyboard struggling to write, I’ve come to conclude that while my intent was always to challenge blue pill men to reject the social programming that causes so much life damage, what I’ve ended up doing for the past 15 years is singing to the choir. Mind you, it’s a great choir. 24 carat. That includes my Christian and non Christian audience. I’ve enjoyed singing to you more than I can put into words. But as Chaucer wrote, “All that is well must pass.”

I think my time of singing to the choir has passed. There are some needed changes and challenges coming up for me in terms of my writing. Where that will end up I truly don’t know. My dear friend Kirby used to say that whether I knew it or not, he believed that God has always been guiding my hand in what I write. Whatever amount of genuine humility I have causes me to doubt that assertion regularly, but the part of me that believes it keeps me sane and motivated. I’ve struggled with calling what I do a ministry, and I I’ve settled on the idea that it’s not. At least not by my measure. I’m just a working stiff who happens to love and follow Jesus Christ. And right now my job is calling me to a new direction, hopefully in a way that satisfies and pleases those of you already familiar with my work.

All this doesn’t mean I’m laying aside men’s issues, far from it. Every journey, and this sure feels like one to me, starts with a first step. My first step here is to depart from the kind of essays I’ve been writing for the past 15 years, namely the repeated rehashing of romantic gynocentrism and the appeals to men about valuing their own lives.

Instead, my posts for the foreseeable future will be on the current news cycle, and media analysis as seen through the red pill lens. One thing for sure about the times we’re in. There’s no shortage of content. Donald Trump’s been re-elected, in part due to red pill men. The left is having a very public meltdown and identity crisis after the drubbing they just took at the polls. The middle-east is on fire, and we’re closer to a nuclear holocaust than at any time in our history. And, if we don’t get blown to smithereens first, we’re about to see a savage, protracted showdown between serious political disruptors and the administrative state – with everything on the line.

Finally, and in the midst of all this, we are beginning to see the first glimmers of actual resistance to the romantic ethos and much broader acceptance of red pill thinking. For me, this is a very exciting time to be alive. I do believe with all sincerity that we are witnessing the advent of a long-awaited men’s revolution. The things you’ve known for years that the world was oblivious to are finally being ushered into the light.

I want to spend a good bit of time following that revolution and analyzing its impact on the world at large, especially as it plays out in news and media. I hope you’ll stay with me as I move into this next chapter of my work, and that you find my efforts useful, thoughtful, sometimes challenging and always entertaining.

I hope you and yours had a great Thanksgiving and that you’re looking forward to a very merry Christmas.
