i was once involved with a guy who bemoaned that women were only interested in "six feet, six figures, and six inches." he seemed to feel a sense of personal outrage against this, despite the fact that he met or exceeded all of these while having a full head of hair, a girlfriend, and lifting >1000.

That marketing, though, was designed to turn women against themselves; the manosphere now tells men to lash out at others instead. It encourages white men in particular, but not exclusively, to blame their problems on a society that has allowed their lessers to compete with them for employment, power, and prestige by removing the barriers that once kept them out. The heroin-chic era was destructive for women, but it didn’t result in popular media figures advocating for men to be stripped of the right to vote. Notably, tradwife content, the ideological companion to manosphere content, is mostly about how wonderful it would be to be a kind of slave.

I feel it would be unethical for an account with a lot of followers to encourage people, in response to the trend of people witnessing on airplanes, to stand up and explain De Bord. so, I am absolutely not doing that. I am saying that if anybody does this, make sure you post the footage

*standng up on the plane* it's a common misconception that "the spectacle" refers to like, tiktok or ads or reality TV whatever, but that's not what de bord is getting at. the spectacle is the dominant social relationship which is conveyed via image. ok it's easier if i just read. in societies whe

*standing up on the plane* ok you Protestant fucks prepare to get scared because I’m about to tell you what’s real. Hail Holy Queen our light our sweetness and our hopes.

If a wheelcbair user is on a bus, the bus can only move if the chair is facing forward and in the designated area. That is the law. If you stand in the way of my chair, I will look you in the eye and humbly request that you move while gesturing appropriately.
