There is no Rape Culture in the western world.

Feminism examined
Who says universities don’t teach valuable job skills? They teach thousands of students how to be professional victims. For example, you’ll never hear feminists applauding the 85% drop in rapes since the 1970s, which occurred despite many expansions of the definition of rape. Instead, we encounter the increasing prominence of the term “Rape Culture” in the feminist lexicon.
I’ve found myself increasingly interested in Cultural Marxism, including its feminist branch. Did you know there’s an emerging Men’s Rights Movement (MRM) which actively refutes feminist claims, at least in the freedom of internet communications? Some university feminist groups consider the MRM to be hate and resort to violence to suppress them.
Below is a collection of wonderful videos which I recently watched, plus a few articles. You can also check out the archives of my relatively new category Egalitarianism/Culture Wars.

The core of feminism refuted: Men have had harder lives than women, and the relationship between men and women is not adversarial.

On Blaming Men for Not Marrying:
All the of approved paths to a positive male identity . . . are gone . . . men have always been willing to work and sacrifice and sweat and bleed if they were rewarded with the means through which to see themselves as worthy of respect, but when every single role
society wants to cram you into is not longer a way to respect yourself or have the respect of others, then its time to throw those roles away. One thing [feminists & fellow travelers] . . . will never realize is that using shame to coerce men into doing what’s expected of them isn’t going to work this time, because while it’s possible to shame a man into giving his life for his country, if there’s a promise of respect in it, it’s impossible to shame someone into working his ass off and risking his future just for the joy of looking in the mirror and seeing Homer Simpson . . . looking back.

The White Feather Campaign began with the creation of the white feather as a symbol of cowardice and unfulfilled civic duty. With the war effort and the recruitment campaign in full swing, the women of the White Feather would present any healthy young Englishman in civilian dress with this token, in order to symbolize their scorn for him and his failure to be man. Upon receipt of a white feather, these men were being told that they weren’t “real men” and that the women around them looked upon this apparent lack of masculinity with disgust. www.studentpulse.com/articles/151/the-white-feather-campaign-a-struggle-with-masculinity-during-world-war-i

Feminism is (mostly) socialism with panties. When choosing between women and the state, most feminists will choose the state and shun women like Ayn Rand, Margaret Thatcher, etc.

In my view, as the state replaces the father, women are increasingly resorting to tribal mating patterns. Perhaps this is a cause of the widely observed moral decline which RamzPaul satires here:

Protest against gay marriage: Huge crowds expected in Paris
PARIS – Several hundred thousand people are expected to march through Paris on Sunday against the planned legalization of same-sex marriage in the first mass protest against the unpopular President Francois Hollande.
Strongly backed by the Catholic hierarchy, lay activists have mobilized a hybrid coalition of church-going families, political conservatives, Muslims, evangelicals and even homosexuals opposed to gay marriage for the show of force. (Read more)

What is Cultural Marxism?
An offshoot of Marxism that gave birth to political correctness and “anti-racism.” Cultural Marxism maintains that all human behavior is a result of culture (not heredity / race) and thus malleable. While traditional Marxists focused on class identity in racially homogenous countries (with poor results during WWI), Cultural Marxists facilitated the racial organization of non-whites, while simultaneously asserting that “race does not exist” for white people. Cultural Marxists typically support race-based affirmative action, the proposition state (as opposed to a nation rooted in common ancestry), secularization in the name of religious pluralism, and mass Third World immigration into Western countries. Cultural Marxists have promoted idea that white people, instead of birthing white babies, should interracially marry or adopt non-white children. Samuel P. Huntington maintained that Cultural Marxism is an anti-white ideology. (Read more)
Novye Aldi massacre
The Novye Aldi massacre was a notorious crime in which Russian federal forces summarily executed dozens of people in the Novye Aldi (Aldy) suburb of Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, in the course of a “mopping-up” (zachistka) operation conducted there on February 5, 2000, soon after the end of the battle for the city. As a result of a deadly rampage by the special police forces at least 60[1] and up to 82[2] local civilians were killed and at least six women were raped. Numerous houses were also burned and civilian property was stolen in an organized manner.[3]
U.S. Spy Law Authorizes Mass Surveillance of European Citizens: Report
Europeans, take note: The U.S. government has granted itself authority to secretly snoop on you.
That’s according to a new report produced for the European Parliament, which has warned that a U.S. spy law renewed late last year authorizes “purely political surveillance on foreigners’ data” if it is stored using U.S. cloud services like those provided by Google, Microsoft and Facebook.
Europeans were previously alarmed by the fact that the PATRIOT Act could be used to obtain data on citizens outside the United States. But this time the focus is a different law—the Foreign Intelligence and Surveillance Amendments Act—which poses a “much graver risk to EU data sovereignty than other laws hitherto considered by EU policy-makers,” according to the recently published report, Fighting Cyber Crime and Protecting Privacy in the Cloud, produced by the Centre for the Study of Conflicts, Liberty and Security.
The FISA Amendments Act was introduced in 2008, retroactively legalizing a controversial “warrantless wiretapping” program initiated following 9/11 by the Bush administration. Late last month, it was renewed through 2017. During that process, there was heated debate over how it may violate Americans’ privacy. But citizens in foreign jurisdictions have even greater cause for concern, says the report’s co-author, Caspar Bowden, who was formerly chief privacy adviser to Microsoft Europe.

Jewish Democrats slam Paul addition to key panel
The National Jewish Democratic Council lashed out Friday over the recent appointment of Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky to the Senate’s Foreign Relations Committee, citing his “deeply disturbing record when it comes to the US-Israel relationship.”
In a statement released Friday by the NJDC, its president David Harris said that Paul’s “membership in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee should be raising red flags and provoking severe concern across the pro-Israel community.” Harris also hit out at the GOP, calling its decision to place Paul on the panel “simply outrageous.”
“The overwhelmingly pro-Israel American public deserves much better than a radical ideologue on the Senate’s primary diplomatic committee who has demonstrated a singular obsession with slashing aid to the Jewish state,” the NJDC chief added.
Paul, one of four new Republicans on the committee whose appointments were first reported Thursday by Foreign Policy magazine, has recently reached out to the pro-Israel community and is slated this month to visit Israel accompanied by Christian Zionists.
Unlike his father, Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), a perennial presidential contender who has laced his arguments against assistance for Israel with harsh criticisms of the Jewish state, the younger Paul casts his opposition to assistance as a matter of independence for Israel from undue American influence.
Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul, a fierce opponent of US foreign aid who is being touted already as a likely 2016 presidential candidate, is scheduled to arrive in Israel on Sunday for his first-ever visit.
Paul is scheduled to meet Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres on Monday, the senator’s 50th birthday. (Read more)

McChrystal says ‘serious action’ needed on gun control
I met General McChrystal once. He came to Fort Benning when I was in Infantry Officer’s Basic Course to meet the new infantry officers. He met us for PT and led a run of a few miles.
I now consider him a traitor.
Speaking on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Tuesday, Retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said some weapons should be carried only by soldiers, not civilians.
“I spent a career carrying typically either an M16, and later an M4 carbine,” he said. “And an M4 carbine fires a .223 caliber round, which is 5.56 millimeters, at about 3,000 feet per second. When it hits a human body, the effects are devastating. It’s designed to do that. And that’s what our soldiers ought to carry.”
The general added, “I personally don’t think there’s any need for that kind of weaponry on the streets and particularly around the schools in America. I believe that we’ve got to take a serious look. I understand everybody’s desire to have whatever they want, but we’ve got to protect our children, we’ve got to protect our police, we’ve got to protect our population. And I think we have to take a very mature look at that.” (Read more)

“Food Sovereignty” law passed in small Maine town to allow sale of locally produced food without interference of regulators
Maybe the citizens of tiny Sedgwick on the Maine coast were listening to the calls of Dave Milano, Ken Conrad, and others for more trust and community, and less rigid one-size-fits-all food regulation.
On Friday evening, they became perhaps the first locale in the country to pass a “Food Sovereignty” law. It’s the proposed ordinance I first described last fall, when I introduced the “Five Musketeers”, a group of farmers and consumers intent on pushing back against overly aggressive agriculture regulators. The regulators were interfering with farmers who, for example, took chickens to a neighbor for slaughtering, or who sold raw milk directly to consumers.
The proposed ordinance was one of 78 being considered at the Sedgwick town meeting, that New England institution that has stood the test of time, allowing all of a town’s citizens to vote yea or nay on proposals to spend their tax money and, in this case, enact potentially far-reaching laws with national implications. They’ve been holding these meetings in the Sedgwick town hall (pictured above) since 1794. At Friday’s meeting, about 120 citizens raised their hands in unanimous approval of the ordinance.
