I see people arguing about incels again on the TL (the discourse is a hamster wheel) so I am going to share some wisdom from the Book of Pook.

One of Pook's best insights is that desiring to settle down is ITSELF unattractive
You should be free as a bird, singing, full of joy with life. Women want to throw the bird in a cage

When birds try to fly into the cage, wouldn’t you think something is wrong with that bird? Women want the birds that are FREE, WILD, and BEAUTIFUL.
Some people think women are weak and stupid. I disagree strongly and, you know what, so do you. The reason why there is [red pill ideology] is precisely because women were stronger than we thought.
Manners for men: direction of masculine strength, not the denial of it.
Relationships of the ‘New’ Man and the ‘New’ Woman are two androgynous beings swapping a phallus. “I’ll be the Man for today, honey.” “OK dear, but I get the phallus Thursday for a meeting at work.”
Many find a woman (or women) as a substitute for achievement. This is female thinking, that the ‘union’ means your life is complete. When you think you are ‘achieving things’ because you have a woman or women, you stunt life.
Since the changes and joys of life’s arc (babies, family, courtship, marriage) have no role for the intelligentsia, it is no surprise that anti-sexuality flourishes among intellectuals. The greatest dupe with women (and life) is the professor cocooned in doctorates against life
Women are at their loudest when they’re lonely. This is also true with dogs.
Women who complain of sexual harassment wish it would happen to them.
Women do not deceive men. We use women to deceive ourselves.

There is an endless litany of arguments against democracy and you probably know them all, already. Yes, I know the US is a republic, but spiritually it's a democracy; we believe that our rulers are granted legitimacy because they are manifestations of our voice
A thing can be spiritually true even if it's not literally true, (or symbolically true, or directionally true) Did Washington cut down a cherry tree? Who cares, spiritually true. Is Michelle Obama a male transvestite? Who cares, spiritually true (also yes)
Mencken said "democracy is grounded upon so childish a complex of fallacies that they must be protected by a rigid system of taboos, else even half-wits would argue it to pieces. Its first concern must be to penalize the free play of ideas"

In "The Feeling of Power" (Asimov, 1958), ubiquitous computation causes humanity to forget the fundamentals of math, including how to count. A technician rediscovers it by studying computer schematics, and the tech spreads to the military. This is an allegory for Pickup Artistry
The common misconception is that Pickup Artistry (hereafter, PUA) is about "tricking" women into bed with you. In fact it has nothing to do with this, because you can't trick a woman into bed any more than you can trick a cat into eating a treat. The cat is complicit
At the turn of the century, millennial men were in a similar situation to the erstwhile mathematicians in Asimov's story; in a future of ubiquitous sex, we forgot how to seduce women, because we forgot the fundamentals of being a man

The left is correct when they tell you that western society was never free. That patriarchy and all variety of “normativities” were always present to control you. The rules of society are often unstated. You may not even notice them, but you notice when they change
The illusion of freedom is present when social norms are fixed and relatively unambiguous. When you know what is normal and what is expected, you feel free, because your choices are clear and contextualized
The illusion of freedom is shattered when norms break down, because you get caught between competing systems; acting under one system means disobedience to another; the necessity of disobedience makes you feel unfree

My Essays – medium-form nonfiction (to the degree that anything is nonfiction)
"In this essay I will presume to speak for the dissident Right. I have as much claim to this power as I have to speak for the infinite stars. And yet stars, like dissidents, have much to say, if one only learns to listen."

A review of Michael Schur's television series, "The Good Place"

"Mystics speak of exo- and eso-teric traditions, which Sufi muslims call zahir and bāṭin, the world of forms and appearances, and the world of inner or hidden meaning, respectively."

@rhizostigmata It seems like religion is smaller than worldview, since your worldview includes your beliefs about history and your place in the world, your connection to the past and the future. Of course, literally anything *can* take on a religious dimension, which makes it hard to draw lines
@rhizostigmata I would suggest that, at minimum, a religion needs a soteriology and a mechanism for evangelism. Under this definition, "woke" maybe becomes dicey: we see them undergoing "religious" ecstasies but we don't really have a clear sense of how a woke person is "saved"
@rhizostigmata On the other hand, we see people at rock concerts experiencing ecstasies and evangelizing their interests to others, but being really into a particular music scene probably does not inhabit our intuition for what constitutes religion. Maybe soteriology is too narrow...

Conviction is easy when you have someone to hate. Hatred is the glue that holds societies together at scale. It's hard to agree what is good, easy to agree who to hate. It's not wrong to define yourself by what you oppose, but it does cause a problem if that thing stops existing
Two reasons the leftward ratchet continues: 1. leftism in practice creates the conditions it claims to correct. 2. it has an extremely legible scapegoat. Let's start with the second one.
The left hates men, and it hates whites, in that order. The reason for this boils down to "fuck you, dad", but if we are slightly more nuanced, they hate whoever is above them, and they define "above them" as white men. It's clean, tautological, and impervious to empiricism
