This is a wordy, quasi-intellectualism article, but it's worth a read. Comments at the end are good, too.

The weakening of men and the empowerment of women, as “women claw their way to ever increasing power and fix men (especially young, white men), in their crosshairs,” destroy the sexual, romantic and institutional bond between the sexes. Similarly, the common preachment that men should jettison their manhood and become more like women is to distort the gender relationship and introduce a schism into the culture that can lead only to turmoil and unhappiness for both men and women.

he consequence of the effort to control and punish men for their natural sexuality and to deny that “relationships between men and women should be regulated by social conventions that recognize the differences between men and women.” When nature is violated, domestic anarchy becomes the rule, not the exception, the feature, not the bug. This may partly explain why marriage is in decline and the MGTOW movement (Men Going Their Own Way) is gathering momentum.

Modern feminism, however, is determined, as Baskerville argues, “to depict everything pertaining specifically to women as ‘oppression’,”

Feminism condemns the patriarchal suppression of woman’s presumed inviolability, which, according to the feminist manual, envisions the reduction of women to the status of chattel.

“Men need to feel a cold spike of fear when they begin a sexual encounter,” writes Ezra Klein in Vox, advocating the “creat[ion] of a world where men are afraid.” Men need to feel complicit in the exploitation of women’s innocence. They are guilty in their genes.

“the denial of plain fact that humans are either male or female,” with all that the genetic binary has implied since the beginning of recorded time. This “plain fact” has been routinely and programmatically denied by feminists and gender mavens, for whom sexual differentiation is “fluid” and a matter of choice or feeling.

Read this during my morning poop. Actually worth the read. I picked out some quotes that stood out to me:

"Feminists have sold their birthright for a messy cottage, and will come increasingly to suffer for it in the coin of regret, loneliness and despair."
We are biologically designed for union, feminists ignore this and ignore the scientific fact that there are two genders. Until there can be a consensus on this, the loneliness and despair will continue.

"Kierkegaard would have been appalled, but he would have understood the cultural distress and spiritual emptiness, the mix of narcissism and nihilism that dominates contemporary society."
Society no longer has purpose. Western civilization used to have a purpose, but feminism (not solely) is responsible for losing sight of that purpose. People walk around aimlessly and would rather abandon their principles than potentially offend someone and be labeled a sexist.

"Modern feminism, however, is determined, as Baskerville argues, “to depict everything pertaining specifically to women as ‘oppression’,” leading to a pervasive resentment that vitiates their “essential nature.”"
This is the most obvious problem IMO. Critical theory paints everyone as either oppressors or oppressed, therefore any man is viewed as a threat. A man cannot write about feminism damaging our culture because their manhood invalidates anything they say. So ludicrous.

repped, worth the read

i have never audibly laughed this hard in my life
