Go-Bag Request

Discussing the intensifying of WWIII lately, friend who has a mostly nomadic lifestyle asked if I would do a go-bag post.

He is single, male, has no children and can work from essentially anywhere and is under 30 and enjoying being able to more or less go where he wants when he wants.

His situation may also apply to most young single men that have no real deep attachments or much of a family or extended family, which in today’s world unfortunately is possibly even a majority of young men. At least the ones who are an only child. But it may also apply to a couple of brothers or maybe a couple or even a small group of single male friends.

Anyway, it is not unusual for single young men to not worry too much about anything until bombs start to drop. Even so, with very little effort, it’s possible to put yourself in a much better position than almost all your peers even if you had to start your journey as an escape from a zombie apocalypse hot zone like say London or New York.

So here it is:

If you live at all in a country where it is legal for you to own a handgun, you should already own and be familiar with using one. If you are not, make that your priority. Your handgun is your primary defence weapon and method of preventing your becoming a victim in extreme situations. Become PROFICIENT in its use. This is not optional. If you are going to own a gun and not be proficient with its use and its use under stressful conditions, statistics make it absolutely crystal clear you are better off not having it, because the likelihood is you will be harmed by your own gun. Either because you do something dumb, or because you let someone else get control of it.
You should have at a minimum the following in a go bag:
- Multi-tool/knife (ideally both)
- Medi-kit with at least some gauze, disinfectant, emergency steri-strip and different sized plasters. Meds for fever symptoms (paracetamol, iboprufen) if available some general purpose antibiotics though you should know what for, water purification tablets, kinetic tape and also stretchy sticky tape/bandage like elastoplat brand (if they still make it). Powder/cream for burns. Toothbrush/paste and emergency tooth filling kit. Fishing line and hooks, needles and thread. Paracord.
- At least a few energy bars and some drinking water.
- Paper style topographical maps of your immediate area and/or any place you would aim to go to for long term survival.
- Compass (unless you know how to navigate by starlight) and/or analogue watch with hand dials (you can use it to navigate).
- Small hand-crank powered flashlight that also can be used to charge communication device like smartphone or small portable computer.
You may want to NOT have any smartphone depending on the situation. If there is more than one of you, an inexpensive set of walkie-talkies can be very useful.
At least one roll of toilet paper or some tissues.
Space blanket
Lighter
Change of underwear and socks
Any specific thing you may need, eg:
- Eyeglasses or contact lenses
- Diabetic or other medication
- Specific drug/medicine you require
If you have space, some relevant clothing for the relevant season
Small towel
Instant Coffee
Metal cup/cooking pot combo
Never ending match/flint/magnesium firestarter.

If you also plan to be in the wilderness then you probably need a tent or lean to, a sleeping bag and small gas stove and a trenching tool.

It will take you a day or two if you are starting today to get a backpack and put these things in it.

It’s a very low level of effort for potential maximum gain in a real fast SHTF situation.

You can also have 2 go bags, a little one as above and a second larger one with more stuff like clothes, camping gear, food, etc in case you get a chance to take both and shove them in the car on your back, whatever.

I hope this very obvious and basic set of information is at least inspirational.

And of course, for the more serious minded, get land somewhere rural, build a community of like minded people etc. etc. all the stuff I have blogged in various ways multiple times on this blog.

Even Alone…

Vox posted on the current escalations of Clown World against Russia and concluded that:

Yes, it’s true that Russia might well struggle if forced to face the combined might of Clown World alone – which is the USA, the UK, the EU, and Japan – but Russia is not alone! Russia is very far from alone, being more closely allied to Chinathan Japan or any of the European satrapies are to the USA.

He’s half right. Maybe 2/3 right. Certainly China would be on Russia’s side and I expect many of the BRICSA people would be too, especially Africa, but eventually (and mot very relevantly militarily) also India once they saw which way the wind was blowing.

But that aside, even if Russia had to face NATO completely alone, while it would certainly be a fight, it would not be a close one.

I have posted why before, here.

And for those too lazy to read the whole thing I reproduce the key point here:

And keep the following in mind:

Russia on its own has more soldiers than the whole of Europe combined.
Russian soldiers on active duty are now all combat hardened and experienced. No European country is.
Russian command is homogenous and contiguous through its forces, European militaries are not even co-ordinated internally very well and speak over a dozen different languages, have different capabilities and equipment that is not interchangeable and unfamiliar from one country to another.
Each European country would require its own logistics separate from all the others countries. Russia only needs to co-ordinate one overall scheme. And the reserve troops are also more in Russia than the entirety of Europe.
There would be massive resistance in many or even all European countries to a draft or even just activation of the armed forces against Russia, including from active and serving military right now.
Russian missile interception has been shown to be effective to a decent degree.
European or even American missile interception capacity has been demonstrated to be negligible.
Every capital in Europe is within reach of hypersonic nukes and literally nothing can stop them.
One Satan missiles of Russia can nuke and wipe out the entirety of a territory of France. And there is nothing in Europe that can stop them.
Even if America joins Europe full on, then we also have these issues:
- American logistic lines have to cross the Atlantic and have the same issues the European lines have.
- They still have zero protection from hypersonic missiles.
- American capitals and main cities or anything else in the continental USA or even Canada is absolutely within reach of Russian hypersonic nuclear missiles that can be launched from submarines that have been demonstrated to come off the shore of Washington DC and New York without the Americans being able to do anything about it.
- America has no satellite or space weapon based advantages over Russia either.

And this is all just assuming China is not even in the picture.

Russia could literally reduce the while of Europe to ash in about 6 minutes. And have a good chance of protecting itself from any American ICBMs. Or doing so at least a lot more effectively than the USA has of protecting itself from Russian ICBMs. 20 Russian Satan ICBMs would take about 20 minutes to reach the USA and reduce over half of it to ash too.

In short, no one is going to take out Russia even in a nuclear war. Literally no one. It’s not even a remote possibility. So the West, sooner or later, will either have to STFU or be reduced to ash.

The irritating point is that it is not any of the citizens of the West causing all this, but rather the parasites running things, which are neither American, nor Europeans. They are Ashkenazi bankers with an odd smattering of non-Ashkenazi banker in their midst.

Absent these puppet-masters, one wonders if the world would not suddenly descend into a level of cooperative peace unprecedented in human history.

A reductionist might decide a single missile not even a third of the Satan one would suffice to send a really big message to the relevant tribe if it simply disappeared Israel from the fave of the Earth. This of course would be wrong and genocidal and millions of innocents would die, but it would still be several orders of magnitude less innocents dying than allowing the puppet masters to continue on the current path.

I’m also sure there are probably reasons why small surgical strikes against specific puppet masters would have consequences, and logistically a simultaneous beheading of all the hydra heads would be difficult, yet, it could easily resolve a lot of issues and if repeated a couple of times after the initial strike, it would certainly get the perpetrators that survive to get back under the rocks from which they breed and crawl, and stay there.

In any case, it is my considered opinion that the parasite class ruling the West is far more insidious, dangerous, and evil than any of our would-be Russian overlords.

Blatherers are not relevant

If you are one of those people that thinks that blogging on the internet about the evils of the world and whining about it, or even whining about how young men should be doing X or young women should be doing Y (yes, pun intended) it still isn’t doing much of anything.

You write a book that leads people to a certain action or activity or teaches them a skill or gives them information that has been hidden or unknown ok, that’s better.

But best of all is you taking action in the real world. And while securing your own situation obviously and necessarily must come first, creating that community of zealots that bind together in hard times, is the immediate second thing, and you should really ideally be doing them concurrently as best you can.

I recently had a back and forth over substack comments with on Mark Bisone. That link is to my final comment, but you can thread back up on it and see how it progressed. All on John of Barsoom’s Substack comment section, which is sort of like having two homeless drunks fighting in your front yard because it’s one of those that doesn’t have a proper fence and is just adjacent to the road.

In any case, it became quickly apparent that this Bisone guy had no real clue. He’s the kind who writes pompously lengthy screeds to show you how smart and poetic he is and as Shakespeare said (I paraphrase) it’s all a bunch of hot air about nothing.

He tried to “shame me” into being less “arrogant” (i.e. calling him out on his various consciously chosen flaws), and “prideful” (real, PhULEEEZE! Stop pointing out how I am so deficient in effectiveness and results!) and questioned my “approach” to things despite the fact he hasn’t achieved a fraction of my results.

And finally he dodged the straight forward question of whether Vatican 2 and all its pomps is heresy most foul or not.

So, a wishy-washy, not here, nor there guy, who fancies himself as some sort of “traditionalist” or even (laughably) possibly Catholic layman, that is lukewarm throughout, and achieves little to no measurable impact on anyone’s life other than continuing and perpetrating the generic fog of despair and whining, providing no real applicable positive results.

Yet, I don’t doubt many will look to his writing and like chimps before a stone altar they will OOOOHHHH and AAAHHHHHH, and be enthralled by the fancy words and the verbose and belaboured “points” he makes.

And indeed he is considered somewhat of a “firebrand” I suppose, by a guy like John of Barsoom. Which is fine, because John is very much an intellectual and a theoretician, he’s sort of your crazy and mostly harmless alchemist trying to find how to turn base metals into silver. Or al least copper. And you never know, he might find something totally unexpected that adds to the discourse, but Mark Bisone, seem to me to just be blatherer. And the sole purpose of Blatherers is to waste your time.

When faced with these people always ask them what have they achieved.

Did you take the vaxx?
Did you stop anyone else from taking it? How exactly?
Do you own a business unrelated to your blogging or ideas you present here? If yes, is this a way to get clients?
What have you achieved in life that you think has value for others after the day you die?
Does he have children?
Are they married?

In person, it’s easier to assess quite a few other things, like, for example, are they able to take a punch? (Which does not mean you should punch them out the blue. But you should be able to assess their potential ability to get in a physical confrontation without needing to get into one).

And most importantly, what, if anything, are they doing in the physical world? Are they organising a community? Are they building something? Or at least moving towards it?

I’d take a 20 year old with a go-bag he’s prepared for emergencies, over a boomer with a ranch that has no clue what the problem is.

In the end, no one is coming to save you, no political system is going to fix any of this, and the internet is not real life.

So go on and BUILD your life. The one you want, not the one you’re not really into but is easy anyway.

The Power of One

This post is one of those simple ones to summarise and extremely difficult to get into people’s head or to take positive action in their own lives with.

The basic message is simple:

Keep going. Literally every meaningful discovery, real progress, increase in truth, beauty and justice was inevitably the effort of one man (or less frequently one woman) against all odds.

The trend is that the lone individual, working endlessly, sometimes for years, makes the discovery/breakthrough/whatever that is to the good and then he is promptly buried, forgotten, and his name often also dragged through the mud as the vultures in human form take up his work as their own, slander it while aggrandising their own plagiarisms and so on.

This is the pattern. If you study any history at all, it is the process. Everyone knows Einstein, no one knows the names of the people whose work he shamelessly plagiarised, reworked and pretended to have come up with something brand new. Tesla changed the world more than any other single person except Jesus and yet until a couple of decades ago almost no one knew who he was or what he did. Only the internet brought back his relevance. Everyone knew who Edison was or Marconi, neither of which invented what they are known for first and in fact they stole it from Tesla and even didn’t make a good a job as he had. I know the feeling, since Graham Hancock did a similar thing, taking my The Face On Mars, plagiarising some concepts from it and STILL getting it wrong. But such is life, and such are journalists. Hancock, has made millions and I struggle to maintain my small farm. And Tesla died destitute and Edison was wealthy.

Maxwell figured out the equations and Heavyside crippled them.

Tesla created the alternating current motor and wanted the world to have free energy and JP Morgan and others saw to it we all have to pay for it.

I figured out a pivotal part of human history and the context of it and Hancock still can’t figure out that context in a way that makes coherent sense. Then again, his surname tells us all we need to know about him.

But the key difference is that the people who MAKE the discoveries are almost universally not doing it for the fame or the money. They are doing it for the literal pursuit of truth.

If and when you come across such people, regardless of the fact that like all human beings they will have their flaws, it is important to support them as best you can. I certainly always have and always will.

I was reading Agent 13’s third post on UVALDE and what it cost him, and it is very true and an important point to note that not only is it only one guy that usually figures something out, but if and when that one guy is taken out, a lot of truth is lost. My books are already out there, so there isn’t too much I am worried about, also because I think I have reached a sort of equilibrium with the powers that be. I am not large enough to be a worry, and the things I say, while true, tend to be on the esoteric and general side of things, so while at an individual level for those that take on the concepts they absolutely can be and are life-changing, it is unlikely to form a massive movement of tens of thousands of souls suddenly ready to be my armies of conquest. Also because I tend to avoid wanting to lead anything, and what little I do in that regard I do grudgingly and because it is needed and even then only in a small way. Which is not to say that if a million men suddenly decided to make me their warrior-king I wouldn’t put them to use, but in reality, I neither seek nor particularly want that. It would be a horrible pain in my backside and a distraction from the things I care about. On the other hand, if I did have a cadre of people willing to work hard at a few things, the positive effects that can be had are huge and more than the sum of its parts, which is why I keep slowly building up my little fiefdom.

From the Agent’s Post:

Thank you so much for being a paid sub! There are a lot of people out there who attack certain authors and try to get them to quit, but when I feel like giving up, I remember that there are also people out there who find what I have to share of importance enough to take money out of their pocket and share it with me and that’s a really big deal because you don’t have to do that, especially when inflation is at an all-time high and everyone is struggling. I also financially support those I find to be of importance in our movement. We are awesome souls because without support, Truthers feel alone, stranded on an island in Clown World and there’s nothing left to spread Truth for.

Writing this series has been really difficult for me because it forced me to divulge my failures, mistakes and problems in my life including marriage issues, none of which are comfortable topics. It would have been so much easier to just write about my Uvalde findings and leave out everything else but I think it’s important that people get a glimpse into how evil and secretive The Powers that Be really are, especially toward researchers who look too deep. If you look back at Sandy Hook, there were thousands upon thousands of people digging and exposing so much information. Compare that to Uvalde and what do we see? A couple dozen people truly researching and thousands of others sharing their content. Where did all the Sandy researchers go? Well, we know many ended up dead, and based on my experience, a large portion had their good lives fall apart due to a sudden onslaught of happenstance.

Notice that? The Sandy Hook researchers that were actually the real researchers, not just the “spreaders” tended to die off in bizarre ways. Like the 9/11 researchers which now I think number in the over hundred dead bodies. Like the FTL (faster than light) researchers that started to disappear in the 70s, 80s, and 90s (today everyone is to stupi-fied by Tik-Tok to even read a full length novel, never mind research high tech stuff.

And yes, I have definitely been subjected to a few psyops over the years. Most notably and frequently in the 1990s after I published The Face on Mars and a little bit after the updated version in 2014. And a bit after the Systema book. I have been shadow banned and throttled in many online endeavours, losing a Youtube Channel that was really quite harmless but has proved impossible to regain control of despite repeated attempts and appeals to Google to do so, and so on. Anyway, none of this is really surprising, bandits will try to protect their turf and exposing them, their lies, their crimes or finding a way to avoid them and their extortions is bound to attract their attention in one way or another. Yet, to sit there and worry about it is pointless. Anyone that is worthy of being called a man will do what he does, regardless of the threats levelled against him.

And yes, they will go after your reputation, your marriage, everything. And God only knows how many men have been crushed by the Satanic forces and their demon-ridden puppets over the millennia, but after all, our very own Lord was crucified, so its should come as no surprise.

And that is my point. The point of this post is NOT the slings and arrows you might incur. That’s just to be expected. The point of this post is simply this:

DO NOT STOP.

If you have a passion for truth, whatever aspect of it you are digging into, carry on. It is only such people that create good things for humanity at large. And it is always single individuals or at best a pair of them, like the Wright brothers, say. Do not get disheartened, do not give up.

The Power of One is unbeatable and it begins with you and your spirit. One man not only can win against 10,000, he can inspire one million, and change life for all 8 billion of us down the line.

The secondary part of this post is this:

SUPPORT THE ONES.

When you come across some crazy bastard that is trying to build a free energy machine and has survived a couple of freak “accidents”, fund him as best you can, even if it’s just five bucks to buy him coffee. You never know, that coffee, at the end of a crushing year, might just be the one that gives him that added neurone firing that will help him create something that will change the world. While we are all broken flawed, weak, nasty little creatures, it has been my experience that ultimately there are only two types of people. Those who love the truth and will die pursuing it if need be, and then there is everyone else.

As with my own version of the Male Socio-Sexual Hierarchy, (Alphas, Betas and Scouts) this is surely an oversimplification, (Truth Seekers/Everyone else) as there are many subsets of the people who do not choose to pursue truth relentlessly, and many of them are good and even decent people, but from my perspective, how relevant are they? What are they going to change? At best, they are logistics supporters. Which don’t get me wrong, they are saints; those who support the doers help immeasurably, and without them, nothing would get done, but they are even more anonymous than the lone genius, and more importantly, without them, the lone genius will likely still get there. Just much later and perhaps only at the end of his life.

But the fanatics are the ones that make the difference.

Certainly in those who are not fanatics for truth there are a huge number who enjoys truth well-enough, but just not when it hits a bit too close to home. Or when it exposes very unpleasant realities they don’t want to face or even be aware of. And we all do this to some extent. While I am a fanatic in regard to Truth, when those adverts or docu-dramas come on about starving children in Africa or the trafficked ones in Ukraine and so on, I change channel. I click elsewhere. It’s not that I don’t know about that stuff. I am more aware of it than 99.99999% of humans on Earth, which is why if I ever come across people involved in those activities in a nice remote area of say the Gobi Desert, there will be a slightly more composted patch of it after my passing, but I don’t need that reality, of which I am already aware, forced any further into my skull, since I am not going to dedicate myself to solving that particular problem. Not directly anyway, because even if I went super special forces and was funded by some oligarch to take out bad guys, which I admit would be a job I not only would enjoy, but think I would excel at (given a few caveats), the reality is that the mechanism that allow these realities to be in place would not even be dented by that approach, at least not very noticeably, and the truth is that such a “solution” while emotionally appealing is unrealistic.

If, however, you manage to get humanity to simply not rely on the entire concept of banking and the issuing of fiat money however, that would be really disruptive to those parasites pretending to be human beings that indulge in such activities.

Instant gratification is fun, but in serious matters I tend to play the very long game.

In a typical aspect of synchronicity, when I came here to write this there was a comment on my previous post by Sasha of Synlogos, which is a great aggregator of various blogs and sites that in the main spread (overall) a more positive approach to life I think. So go there and bookmark his site and then go visit it daily for updates on all your favourite zealots; of which, I hope I top your list.

But above all, never, ever, ever, let the bastards grind you down. And even if they do, rebuild yourself and get right back up. This is the Way.

The Definition of Respect

Having caught up reading the Sigma Game blog, I found this post to be quite interesting from the perspective of the definition of respect. And probably because this other post brought home to me why Vox always said he didn’t care about the why of the SSH.

This last one made me aware that having had years more practice at responding to the masses as a result of his blog, he is better skilled at communicating with people some 30 points or more lower on the IQ scale. The very idea that someone would assume that because they can’t imagine or understand something it doesn’t exist or doesn’t have a motive, or origin, literally never crossed my mind. Surely, I dimly thought wordlessly to myself in the depths of my mind, the point of asking why is to understand that which you do not… yet.

But once again, I forgot Professor Cipolla and his 5 rules of Human stupidity. Therefore, on reading about respect as Vox wrote on it, I asked myself how would I define the concept? Because I didn’t (and don’t) immediately agree with the descriptors Vox gave. And even more interestingly, how would I define the concept in a way that it makes sense and is mostly understandable to other people outside of my own head?

Personally, I have no need to define the concept in words, its limits and dimensions are crystal clear to me, however, as someone else said somewhere, the unverbalized thought is as the unrealised idea. Or words to that effect. And putting things into words certainly helps my ability to converse meaningfully with others. So let me try.

First I think it useful to define and separate two terms that can and often do become conflated, and which I think perhaps, Vox also conflated to some extent (maybe not, it’s hard to say without sitting across from him with some decent wine to hand); this is love and respect. While both can be present, they are totally separate terms. I can respect even people I hate, and I can love even people for whom my respect is negligible.

Fundamentally, I think for me respect is related to consistency and integrity even in the face of adversity. The Priest who would rather be executed than break the sacrament of confession. The man who right or wrong as he may be will suffer whatever consequences for his belief, the people or ideas he loves, is deserving of respect. It is why it is perfectly possible for me to respect an actual criminal more than a guy who has maybe never broken a single law, but who simply will go along with whatever rule comes along not because he agrees with them, but because he doesn’t believe anything strongly enough to resist.

In that respect, a person who takes the Vaxx despite having been warned about it, their contents, and so on, certainly will never have the same level of respect I have for someone who despite great difficulty refused to take it.

It does not mean I love them any less, but love does not require respect to exist. Friends and even family took the vacs. I still love them just as much. Maybe even a little bit more because now I am better aware of just how fragile and weak they were, but I can’t respect them as much as if they had not taken it.

The key passage for me were these four:

Respect should not be granted solely on the basis of approval, agreement, or perfection.

I agree wholly with this.

I was disappointed by the decisions of many of my friends and family members to get vaxxed. In a few cases, I was even surprised by them. But in no way did it lessen in any way my respect for them as individuals, or my regard for them as human beings.

It makes me wonder how Vox defines respect, because I don’t agree with this statement. I certainly don’t love any of the people less because of it. In fact, as I said, in a way I feel more sorry for them, which could be considered as a kind of love. A certain level of concern for their lives, and frankly, more so their spirits, which I think are weaker than I had thought.

But respect? No, it certainly has lowered from where it used to be. Conversely, people who I thought (and may well still think) are kind of assholes, but who resisted the vaxx, I have definitely more respect for.

Despite her disappointment, the wife should be able to at least respect the husband for ultimately being willing to listen to her and even to accept her advice in regards to his own actions.

Fair enough, this is a valid point, and I agree with it. She should take comfort in the fact that although he was wrong he listened and adjusted or at least let her direct him correctly. There is nothing wrong with this and in fact it is a good trait for a man to have, since we are all flawed, we will make mistakes and the ability to hear your wife out and adjust accordingly when required is certainly a quality deserving of respect.

I find that it is easier to develop respect for people who listen to me and then change their minds than for those who simply continue stubbornly on a path leading to a bad outcome.

I would say this is obvious for most human beings, although that is mostly because we all like to be “right”. Though I am pretty sure Vox here means it rather differently, and in a way I agree with again. I respect a person able to review the data and change their mind based on the facts, rather than someone who will blindly continue on because of their emotions and inability to cogitate like a thinking creature capable of reason.

Certainly respect might not be so easy to define clearly in words, which is perhaps why it covers two full folio sized pages in my Volume VIII of the Oxford English Dictionary. Nevertheless, I would sum up my own definition as the admiration one may have for a person that is willing to undergo personal sacrifice or duress in order to maintain congruency with their world-view and the attending consequences and duties that should follow from holding that world-view.

Of the 23 different definitions of the word respect found in the OED, most of them refer to a relationship with. A contrast. A relation to. Which is only part of the equation. Only four of the first 17 definitions approach something closer to the meaning I would give it:

13: Regard, Consideration.

14: A consideration; a fact or motive which assists in, or leads to, the formation of a decision; an end or aim.

16: Deferential regard or esteem felt towards a person or thing.

17: Deferential or courteous attentions; actions expressive of respect for a person; politeness, courtesies.

In the second appearance of the word, there are 6 more definitions and only one fits to some degree:

4: To treat or regard with deference, esteem, or honour; to feel or show respect for.

There is one more that also ties in somewhat to my definition:

15: Dread; fear.

Overall then, I would say that respect is something that gives one consideration, regard, appreciation (which can even be in the form of caution, or fear) for a person or thing. And that sensation, consideration and so on can also result in actions that can be interpreted as being respectful. But the origin of that sensation, of that noticing, of that appreciation necessarily comes from some attribute (real, imagined or faked as it might be) that the person or thing has (or that we ascribe to it).

For me, congruency, things like keeping your word, behaving honestly and honourably, and so on, are all aspects that can and do merit respect, but perhaps the largest part, personally, is probably the willingness to stand against difficulty, society, bad odds, whatever, in order to do, or act, or defend, or protect what is true and just and good or innocent.

Those who took the Vaxx did none of those things. They bent.

Therefore, I don’t see how my consideration for them in that regard cannot possibly have been lowered. It has. And it should have. I don’t love them any less, but yes, I do respect them less. Inevitably.

Why such a post? Who cares how Vox defines it? Well, the man has an interesting brain, and there aren’t too many of those around, and one can always learn something going down occasional random rabbit holes, you never know what you might learn. And conversely, one never knows who might find this post useful too.

To Young Women

This post goes out to them mostly, but really to everyone too. We have all been subjected to the absolutely toxic and dysgenic ideology of the narcissistic Boomers and their destruction of all that came before them that was good and healthy and worthwhile. They built nothing, climbing on the corpses of the things they destroyed only to aggrandise themselves while feverishly blocking their own offspring from either being born in the first place, or any effort to have them catch up to them.

And while there are exceptions here and there, the extremely absolute vast majority of boomers are an absolute toxic sludge of modernity, self-obsession and narcissistic demonry. And to one extent or other, we have all been polluted by its stench.

So… please read this post at S igma Game, where a comment by a GenX lady was posted in full. Read the whole thing there, but here is the pivotal jist of it:

Most women are natural followers and need an in-group of other women to build and grow their identity. And the older Boomer women who should be our matriarchs are STD-ridden, Diamond Princess-cruising nightmares.

When I left my stunningly-successful-early-in-my career professional position to (a) stay home with babies and (b) turn my professional skills toward supporting my husband’s business endeavors, every single one of the Boomer women in both of our families let me know how shocked and disappointed they were in me. How I was setting myself up to be too dependent on my husband, and was throwing away all the opportunities they fought so hard for. This included both my mother who was living vicariously through me, my you-go-girl mother-in-law, all three of their sisters, and three boomer aged step-sisters.

Notably, all but one of them are divorced. The one who isn’t is miserable. So it didn’t take long to look at their lives and think, well, if they’re all disappointed in me it must be the right call for not ending up as a miserable old biddie like them.

And the comment on it by Vox is spot on:

This woman did exactly what I fault young women, particularly of the Millennial and Gen Z generations for not doing, which is paying attention to the outcomes of the older women who are attempting to advise you! Misery loves company, and failures love giving advice; in both cases, the wise young woman will reject both.

However, this will inevitably create a challenge for the woman who has neither mentors nor matriarchs from whom she can learn. I know one Gen X woman who rejected her Boomer mother’s insane ways, but it took her literal years to learn how to cook, clean, and make a home from scratch as a post-college adult, because she had no female role model younger than her grandmother upon whom she could rely.

Both the lady who wrote in and Vox absolutely right. And I can attest to it myself, since I certainly did not have a good role model for marriage, but I was lucky enough to spend a few formative years with my grandparents, which on both sides were an model of stability so solid that as a child you just took it for granted. And that is not because things were necessarily rosy between my paternal grandparents. But whatever things they may have gone through, it was kept intensely between them and never touched us as their grandchildren. The love they had for us was never conditional or faked. The primary concepts my brother and I picked up in growing up were probably limited to a limited warrior code of being honest, keeping your word, not taking any shit from anyone, but not be obsessive about it. Justice was the thing, not your ego. And self-reliance, mostly not because it was taught but because we were left to our own devices pretty much unless it was something extremely serious. And even then, sometimes it was down to us anyway. I suppose you could put it down to being raised by a Sigma boomer father in that respect. He wasn’t very present and when he was it was mostly corrective (even when he was wrong). But that all said, I have no animosity at all towards the man, and he certainly always came through when it counted, nor was his love ever in question. Even so, I can’t say the example we had was a good one, in terms of creating a stable family life.

My wife had even less of any kind of even distant view of a traditional marriage and family life, and it has indeed taken her a long time to find her way in even the basics, which given my own examples probably made everything harder on both of us. One thing that has however held everything together is that we both have either a learnt or natural element of deep loyalty. In general, to each other, and to our children. It is an odd kind of loyalty, because it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s shared in the same way at the same time, we are only getting to that point now, after 7 years of marriage, before that, I would say it was our own, individual sense of loyalty and justice that kept us on course even when things were not ideal.

And certainly, I think a lot of grace, or divine assistance too, came into it. By all metrics, our marriage should have been an absolute train derailment, caused by a car-crash pile up on the railway, due to an airplane smashing into a level crossing. At rush hour.

Instead, it’s starting to become what I might have imagined in. my most fevered and fantastic imagination, as an idealistic 16 year old wondering what the perfect life might look like.

And if I have to point to a single thing that made it most possible (you know, after miracles, divine intervention, possible cohorts of angels and so on) when it comes to our human attributes, I would say that it is without a doubt my wife’s ability to do something that very, very, very, very, few women are truly capable of to any decent degree, and it is this:

She has the capacity to pause, review, and recognise logical paths before her and her own errors regarding them.

It is really quite astonishing, because she is absolutely female. Her emotions are truly like a storm at sea, both in the good and the bad. I really believe no man has any real clue the levels of emotional tides that women experience, and I say that being a man that clearly has a wide range of them beyond most normal men. The astonishing thing, which I tried to transmit also in Caveman Theory, is that the more of a safe realm you give your woman’s emotions to run free, yet are able to keep them also “contained”, that is allow her to do her freak-outs but don’t get phased by them nor let them steer you onto the rocks of dissent, disrespect, or utter madness (and that last one can be hard to define!), the more, if she is at heart a healthy person (and not a raging narcissist, in which case, you may not survive) she may become able to reason herself back to sanity once the tsunami of whatever it was has passed.

Perhaps it’s because she’s English. Those people have the almost alien-like ability to simultaneously not know themselves very well or very deeply, and yet to try to do so by the use of cold and calm logic. Unfortunately the study, use and practice of logic in the last century or so has been vilified, negated and denied to most people. So, great damage to this ability has been done, and the Anglo-Saxon female realm has gone from trying to reason things out during the calm between emotions, to the simple rationalisation/justification of whatever emotion happens to be running them in any given moment.

Certainly she also has an IQ that is well above average, which also helps, firstly because there isn’t an actual 30 point IQ communication gap between us. Or at least, mostly there isn’t and those little gaps that can happen if not taking the time to examine them can be bridged by a calm conversation.

But whatever the reason, she has the ability to do logic if given time and space to do it. She still needs to sometimes be “corralled” to the “logic box” because there are things that otherwise will be ignored for years, and being that as well as extremely feminine, she also has the tendency towards wanting to be as free as the proverbial mustang running in the prairies, that corralling is really something only a vastly experienced cowboy with the talent to make it an art might be able to do. The fine line has to be taken that she has to see it for herself. The corral, needs to be seen from a distance, because if she suddenly finds herself in one, even one of her ow making, then it’s usually panic stations and red alarms going off. And she also has to see it is good, from a distance, because again, it might be perfect but if in her imagination it comes as a sudden imposition she will panic without even evaluating what it is. And then see has to see it is not a prison but a home, a place you return to, not one that prevents you being free, but in fact one that allows you even more, and real freedom, once you accept the responsibilities of it.

It is not always easy, and I have never been a patient man, which may be a curse for some, but perhaps, in her case, it is a good thing. Pretty women invariably get away with murder with men. Most are too timid to even point out certain things, never mind make it something they will insist is part of their life. In short, sometimes, it takes a bastard to point a spoilt pretty girl in the right direction. It is not a trope in all the girly romantic novels for no reason after all, cliched as it sounds.

But the point is that above all, as I have been saying for literally decades, women need to begin to learn how to do actual logic. Their wild emotions and crazy feelings need to be learnt to be put aside and things reasoned out. And not with a view to justifying their feelings, emotions or what they want to happen, but so that objective reality can be evaluated and where they have lacunae (gaps, holes of knowledge, behaviour, understanding, intimacy, or whatever) they, not their husbands, not their children, not society, not the universe, not God, but they, they themselves, need to change and take the appropriate action to rectify and improve the issue. Very few women do this process consciously.

Most women who have read this will at this point be screaming at the screen, saying that sentence is so much nonsense because they…(add endless list of self-recriminating statements here). So let me explain it another way, and if you are a woman, please, put your emotions aside and pay attention.

Being able to observe yourself critically but in an objective fashion is very difficult for all human beings, men as well as women, because we are mostly selfish, weak, petty, ego-driven, flawed, nasty, little creatures. Yes, all of us, in varying degrees, but all of us.

Women, being far more governed by their emotions than men, naturally find this exercise far more difficult than even most men. Compounded by the biological solipsism intrinsic to women, which they can no more help than other attributes of their biology, and it is really quite hard to do. This process, has nothing to do with, and is very different from, the constant self-recrimination that most women who are not actual full-blown narcissists do. Allow me to give an example that will be instantly familiar to any woman.

Every normal woman, no matter how physically attractive she is, will invariably find some flaw with herself if standing naked in front of a full-length mirror. I know because I have observed this myself with literally every woman I have been with. And trust me, at the risk of sounding arrogant, I have had some very pretty girlfriends. And yet, they will absolutely crap all over themselves about some non-issue, that can range from the shape of their fingers, to the way their hair falls on them, a slight defect like a birth-mark, a tooth that is not perfectly straight, you name it, they will see flaws that no man would care at all about when looking at the rest of them. Women do this not just about their bodies but any number of other utterly irrelevant things.

If I ask a friend over to my place, it hardly makes a difference to me if there are dead bodies stacked by the front door. He’s my buddy, he’s not coming over for the decor. My wife (and this is natural and a good thing, I am not saying it is not) will freak out and try and spic and span the whole house like a tornado if the postman is dropping a parcel off and I invite him for coffee. She is starting to learn (the hard way) that in rural setting with 5 children, she may as well ask for herds of unicorns to line up outside for filming. But regardless she still gets rather upset at life, the universe, and sadly, herself, for not having things as perfect as she would like.

But I am not talking about these sort of recriminations. they are mostly a slight disease of the mind, quirks, and the general approach a man should have is to try your best to put her mind at ease and let her see her efforts are appreciated and her “flaws” are meaningless or even endearing to you.

When I talk about correcting a behaviour or flaw, I mean important shit that can fuck up your life, like excessive solipsism, or disrespecting your husband for some idiotic feminist concept that has no place in a healthy society. If you are a stay at home housewife and your husband works all day, learn to cook. Learn to take care of the home. And if you think that is “below your standard as a woman” then explain to me why driving a truck for 15 hours a day and getting a back injury from it, or being a plumber and literally fixing people’s shitty pipes all day, or an. oil rig driller and being covered in slurry and toxic shit day and day out is not below a man’s standard. looking after your family as you are able to is your duty. And yes, we all have duties if we are human beings even worthy of the name. And yes, your duties are more important than some fake, magical, Disney/Hollywood fairy tale life. If I need to crawl through a pile of rotting dead bodies for my family to be safe and happy, I will not even hesitate. Hell, I wouldn’t hesitate if I have to MAKE the pile of dead bodies before I crawl through it. And I full expect my wife to be able to do the same if called upon it. Though I will volunteer first for the dead bodies stuff, so it’s only fair she is the primary cook at home. There is absolutely nothing intrinsically wrong in each one having different roles. Not respecting those roles or not performing our duty-bound actions in their regard is the problem. Not the thing or the doing of the thing.

The moment women learn to do a lot more logic than they have been taught in the last hundred years, the sooner they will get back to being the kind of heroines that their grandmothers and great-grand-mothers probably were; with the added bonus that the “feminizing” of the men that has taken place over the same period, has resulted in the minority of men that have remained men, instead of becoming metrosexual, androgynous, confused fools, better able to appreciate a woman who is properly a woman instead of a spoilt brat or a slovenly slattern.

In short, the attitude that having a big family with lots of children, that being as self-sufficient as possible, and that the traditional roles of a wife and husband in a traditional family are not just good things, but things to aspire to, today takes a conscious effort to understand and put into practice. Plus, as the doing so is not necessarily easy or the process entirely rosy, you need to work at it even as you gradually get an appreciation for it as you climb over the hurdles, especially at the starts, which without fail tend to be rooted in the following:

General laziness
General selfishness (greed for time to waste, consumer crap no one really needs, keeping up with the Joneses, lust for ever-changing sexual partners and gratification, gluttony to eat/travel/do as you please every minute of your day outside of work because your duty is ultimately and primarily focused on your having as easy a life as possible, gluttony for distraction TV/videogames/random hobbies with no real effect on your life)
General weakness. The usual “It’s too hard” without even trying. “I don’t know how” without ever trying to learn or find out. “I’m just not that kind of person” (too lazy). Which all falls under my label of, well, guess what, if you had a guy shoot you in the foot every time you whined about how you can’t, you’d learn to do it hopping on one leg after the first shot, and you would learn it right away. So it’s a matter of laziness and weakness of character ultimately.

Now, if you are wondering why anyone should put themselves through so much just to have a numerous and worthwhile and loyal family… well, I can’t help you. You’re probably the kind of person that will never do, achieve or teach anyone anything, other than possibly as an example of how not to be.

There is no substitute on Earth for a functional, loving, big family. I didn’t have one like that growing up. Neither did my wife. But we sure are going to keep working at making sure our children (and ourselves) do.
