The MRA manifesto

[Black_Rose]

I decided to post this because I might find the perspective of some restricted users, especially those who actually subscribe to this stuff, interesting.

It is rather short from the aptly named blog, Patriactionary:


Namely, I’m interested in the premise a not-insignificant portion of the MRA side starts from – that we need rights and activism to demand that women give us permission to be men. That is an abdication of man’s natural role, that of leader. We don’t lead our women because they give us permission, but because that’s just how it’s supposed to be, baby.

So then, what is a reactionary to do? Perhaps the proper reaction is a revolution that says we will no longer collectively frame our responses in reaction to women. Instead, we will lead and the women will react. Or to put it another way, go make us a sandwich.

This guy is clearly trolling. Whenever somebody says go make me a sandwich its kind of a giveaway.

Poe's Law:

Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing.


The core of Poe's law is that a parody of something is by nature extreme. That makes it impossible to differentiate from sincere extremism.

A corollary of Poe's law is the reverse phenomenon: legitimate fundamentalist beliefs being mistaken for a parody of that belief.

A further corollary, the Poe Paradox, results from suspicion of the first corollary. The paradox is that any new person or idea sufficiently extreme to be accepted by the extremist group risks being rejected as a parody or parodist.

I'm looking at you, RevLeft.

You wish. Unfortunately, MRA is real (http://manboobz.com/category/mra/), as absurd as that sounds. The shit these sad-sacks come out with is a pathetically obvious attempt to explain away their inability to interact with women as if they were fellow human beings.

The bloggers there are clearly fascist, since I encountered Will S. and Svar having a circle jerk about how Franco was a great leader, especially his for his persecution of Spanish Republicans during and after the Spanish Civil War.

BTW, don't some M-Ls trigger Poe's law, at least in the perception of the political normals. Many M-Ls defend some Maoist policies and North Korea.
