I think you're severely underestimating the kind of damage cults can do. Every society has them and no matter how fucking crazy and obviously harmful they are, they always have tons of adherents. People routinely die in the name of some horny guy named Ted or some shit who claims to be a god.

All it takes to create an NPC thrall is a broken person plus a bit of love bombing. That or gaslighting them from birth. Ever wonder why every secular western death cult is extremely insistent on having access to children? That's why.

Wokeism is a cult, but when were white people ever "loved bombed" into joining it? Wokeism was real with white people from day one -- we hate you, we think you're the devil, and we want you gone, but give us your money before you go. Despite this clear message whites in droves said "Thank You Sir! May, I Have Another?" every time they were flogged up the ass by woke policies and propaganda. To simply blame this on brainwashing is a cope. Brainwashing is powerful, but for this number of white people to be brainwashed out of their natural instincts to protect their own children shows there must be something innate in white people that makes them particularly vulnerable to this type of cuckoldry. We need to find out what it is and breed it out of us before it's too late.

Dude, watch this video. A black dude held a knife and threatened this white dude's children. The black dude gets arrested and white dude starts crying that it's unfair that black dude is being arrested. This isn't brainwashing my friend. This level of cuckoldry is innate.

Extreme Lookism with all systematic recourses from it being eliminated is what killed western culture. That encompasses pretty privilege and all the "-isms." These petty pretty looking retards would sooner glass their own country than let someone they aren't physically attracted to live their own life in peace and try to take away choices for other people who may or may not actually like that person. Consequences be damned. rules for thee but not for me.

WTF are you talking about? Pretty privilege isn't a thing outside of Hollywood and even then it still comes at the cost of your dignity, so it's not that much of a privilege. Ugly people who maintain a healthy weight, dress decently, have good hygiene, and an overall nice personality are treated fine for the most part. The issue nowadays is ugly people feel entitled to hot people, when they really need to do what every other generation before them did , and find another ugly person to get with. Like incels aren't mad they can't get a woman, they're mad they can't get a hot woman. Likewise, fat chicks want a chad, but don't want to work out like a Stacy. I've seen plenty of Chads with butterfaces, so uglies still have a chance if they work out, but many aren't even willing to do that nowadays. This is an entitlement issue, not a lookism issue.

Your post is generally good, but you massively contradict yourself when you start off claiming that pretty privilege isn't a thing outside of Hollywood. To claim that it doesn't exist in general is about as delusional as the people that claim that looks are everything in life. It's (being attractive and its privileges) not so intense as some people would claim, but being more attractive definitely will generally result in being treated better, having more opportunities presented to you, etc. You don't even need to read a bunch of studies to understand this inherently, just having attended school or working a job where you interact with people should make this evident. There is something to be said that being better looking may have people underestimate your abilities (although I would say that this is a case where it probably affects women more,) but that still wouldn't wipe out the benefits.

You're definitely right about the entitlement and resentful attitude that a lot of people have, especially among certain groups that you'll come across online; if you're some fat slob then it's kind of crazy to expect that some woman like Olivia Dunne or some hunky looking guy is going to be physically attracted to you as you are.

As it is, I think that @Catgirl Fucker's thesis of extreme lookism doesn't really fit. Is it that preening looks obsessed people are the main culprit, or rather is it that the success and resulting relative safe society has caused it to atrophy and become weak? I would point to the latter. Extreme lookism is probably a symptom, but not a cause worth blaming to any large degree.

Ben Shapiro did the right thing firing Candence Owens not because of her alleged anti-semitism but because she’s a grifting cunt. She wasn’t even a good reporter. Amazing that Ben Shapiro can occasionally make a good decision. Too bad it’s only occassionally.

Going out to the movies is the worst type of date or activity yet. You cannot interact with each other for a prolonged period of time. You're cramped with OTHER people in darkness. Don't get me started on the concessions. You're better off doing a movie night at home where you have more freedom to mingle about.

Oddly I don't have much luck asking women to come to my secluded cabin in the woods with the soundproofed home cinema to watch a movie. I think they get the wrong idea.

I'm just sick of the concept of any type of privilege or -ism. Privilege is not quantifiable. You can't quantify how much someone benefits from being hot, any more than you can quantify how much someone benefits from being white. It's all just people projecting their own insecurities and jealousy onto others. Maybe your hot coworker got the promotion over you because they are hot. Or maybe they're actually better for the job. Which answer would make most people feel better about themselves?

I'm also sick of the everyday, unavoidable unfairness of life being politicalized and used as yet another excuse for people to victimize themselves and dehumanize others. The truth is if people are truly subconsciously nicer to attractive people, there is likely an evolutionary reason for it, so it can't be stopped. It's not fucking fair, but neither is life. Being valued just for your looks is also unfair and dehumanizing. There's trade-offs to everything. Eventually, we all just gotta grow up the fuck up though and accept life is not fair. Society can't make everything fair for everyone either. It would be disastrous if it tried. Like what do we do about pretty privilege anyway? Throw acid on pretty people so fuglies have a fair chance? How about instead people just accept that everyone is born with certain advantages and disadvantages, and it's up to them to make the most of what they were given?

I don't trust psychology, so I don't give a fuck about their studies or the concepts they come up including the halo effect.

I call bullshit on Dahmer and Bundy being so attractive and charming and that's why it took them so long to get caught. The police just made that up to cope with the fact that 99% of them are deeply incompetent.

I agree with you on pretty much everything here and I hope that my previous post didn't come across like I was saying there's something wrong with what's being called "pretty privilege." My post was meant to say that it's a thing, and like you, I believe that it seems pretty obvious that there's an evolutionary reason for it; I think that the word "privilege" is what gets some people worked up about the topic. At the end of the day it could be called any number of things, but the point is that it exists and for anyone to deny it seems crazy and basically a denial of evolution in some respect.

The idea of throwing acid on someone's face to even the playing the field is of course hyperbolic, but that's basically what the logic of a lot of the things like the HAES (health at any size) movement are: big fat fatty fats who want to try to gaslight society into ignoring our gut (no pun intended) instincts that scream "Nope, this isn't good. You're gross and you're going to probably die two decades before you should because you can't stop cramming food down your throat." We, every single person on the planet, have biases, and that's good and okay if exercised in a healthy manner, contrary to how SJWs (who of course have their own) and the like would argue against.

It's not just being good-looking. Bundy was also silver-tongued and clever.

You also have to consider who the victims are and how treated. Society does treat them them differently.

There is a phenomenon called "victim discounting". Dahmer got away with it for so long because he was using his fridge as Dead Gay Nigger Storage, but nobody knew until one of his bucks escaped. Contrast that with the media circus that arises every time a pretty white girl goes missing.

Which is not to say "why aren't we mourning for every homie that ends up lined in chalk"? It's not systemic racism, it's that life is cheap in the hood. A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic.

 

[AnOminous]

There is a phenomenon called "victim discounting". Dahmer got away with it for so long because he was using his fridge as Dead Gay Nigger Storage, but nobody knew until one of his bucks escaped.

It isn't even just that kind of minority. Gary Ridgway, the Green River Killer, was no Hannibal Lecter or even a Dahmer-level intellect. Dahmer had a 145 IQ, about the same as Bundy's, although he was socially retarded and obviously weird even on casual observation. Bundy by comparison could emulate empathy well enough to work on a rape crisis hotline next to future true crime writer Ann Rule and fool her enough she initially couldn't believe what he'd done.

But Ridgway, not even average with a low-80s IQ, got away with 70+ murders for decades by simply choosing low-value targets (prostitutes) who tend to disappear without anyone caring even when not murdered by serial killers, sticking to a simple m.o., not deviating from it, and eventually (unlike most compulsive serial killers) eventually stopping. This was despite the fact that he had been a known suspect since 1982, although they couldn't even get probable cause on him until recent advances in DNA testing.

The main thing that got serial killers caught before forensics got to where they are now, where we're seeing old cases getting solved, were behavioral quirks and rituals they always did because the ritual was the point. Without that unique fetish, it could be hard to connect the killings at all much less link them to an actual person.

My statement about Ridgway sticking to the same m.o. and other serial killers having some signature might seem to contradict itself, but think of it this way. Picking some generic method like strangling with ligatures and disposing of the bodies in remote areas is so generic that even if you connect the killings, it doesn't strongly suggest any particular kind of person so it left behavioral science wonks at a loss. He was basically a "gray man" and if you met him you'd just think he was a normie, and a rather dull one at that.

There is no functional distinction in the psychic operation between fiat currency and religion other than fiat currency serving purely materialist ends that insist on the ontological primacy of man whereas religion submits that there is something greater and another world beyond the material to strive to.

[The Hardest R]

So yeah, that's my unpopular opinion for today. I kind of like Mao Zedong.

People don’t want to admit that in many cases, a strongman type of ruler works for most of the world. North Africa and the Middle East was never more prosperous and stable when guys like Hussein, Gaddafi, and Mubarak were running things. As we saw with COVID, we saw an eager and willing Commissar Karen class quickly emerge. The idea that we have some magic dirt that turns potential commissars into freedom lovers was proven to be a lie. Most people prefer security over freedom. Always has been and always will be. Mao was an extreme but Kuomintang China was weak and degenerated and they never could get a handle on a country of China’s size and population. Mao was able to.

I’m not saying this is good or the way things should be, it just is what it is.

[Norbert the Tiger]

Point taken, but all that is easy to say when you're not being betrayed to the commissars by family and friends, or at the mercy of a crazed mob demanding that you publicly confess to heinous crimes you never committed.

Democracy and Rule of Law are far from perfect, but they're the least bad system humanity has invented thus far.

Be careful what you wish for. You might get it.

It is interesting that so many opposed to Cultural Marxism cling to this reflexive disdain for government. I think this merely demonstrates that our form of government has been undesirable for a long point of time.

Your argument is short-sided. Suppose someone asserted that something like the LA riots requires lethal force a la rooftop Koreans, and the response is, yeah but if rooftop Korean vigilantism is used by the other side. Of course the business end of violence is bad when used against you, that is why you wield the sword and use it rather than let it be used against you
We are NOT voting our way out of this, and in the long run unless centers of culture are seized from the likes of Disney et al, the programming of people and successive generation will only get worse. Franco and Pinochet did not save their countries by respecting democracy. If anything, Franco's posthumous demise happened because he was not hardcore enough.

@The Hardest R I do not disagree with anything you say. I am not sure that some form of indrect democracy coild not work after something as drastic as the Cultural Revolution does a little "house cleaning." I really like the system enviosned in Starship Troopers, but fused with the principes of Blood and Soil, none of that multi-culti we are the world crap. Indeed, if Germany operated on the "service guarantees citizenship" bit, Ggermany would not have lost, because most militarhy leaders and many of the rank and file knew it was madness to go up against three peer powers simultaneously.

Anyway, @Meat Target, I would suggest the consolidation of power by the Left is pretty much a fait accompli The Great Replacement is nigh inevitable, absent of course someone with Mao's touch. if it isn't, it will be if we continue to think that conventional ideas about democracy and American civics apply. The side that wants to win is beating the side that just wants to be left alone and is willing to leave the other side alone.

I really wish there was more effort to delineate 80s/90s/early 2000s anime from the current crop of kawaiishit that Japan pumps out by the truckload to pander to weebs. It's extremely frustrating when boomers and normies think Sword Art Online and Ghost in the Shell are basically the same show because their animation comes from the same region.
