Title: Women's right to vote...
Post by: Admerius on April 01, 2016, 02:46:13 am
The end is near, I'll pack up and move to China soon.
I hope they will accept someone from the western beta-civlization.
We(-st) once were glorious and the Prime Alpha in the west.

Length warning for phone surfers: It is 18:37 long

This poll is alarming! 45% prefer cancer!
Just look at what happened throughout the 1900's

If we lived in a alternative history, and the west still had not given women equal rights... and everything else was the same, with ISIS and mass immigration today, I wonder who this man would have blamed.

Forbidding equal rights to women, un-westernizing our countries, is not a solution to the problems we have. The west is not toothless, it simply has laws and democracy.
Who seriously think that an anti-western Caliphate will rise in a westernised country without anyone interfering? Feminine tendencies slightly favorising the emergence of enemies of the state or not, it will not happen without a fight. At best, we will adapt our society to assimilate, at worst there will be a clash of civilizations, and who would seriously bet on anything but the west?

There would be noone or nothing to blame, because the borders would be closed and no immigrant at all would enter europe, because France, UK, Germany and so on would be led by Ultraconservatives. There wouldn't be as much left/green parties and people, and surely they wouldn't be in government/administration.

I'm 100% with you here. But I am deeply afraid that many people will suffer, surely there will be blood, death and agony. And in the end, we will end with less freedom and democracy, especially with people from the "middle-left/right establishment" still in charge. We will lose alot of our freedom without extreme leftists or right wingers ever being in control of anything, and that is thanks to this man made "migrantcrisis".

I seriously doubt a man's world would manage this differently, if we were in this alternate history. Because in this alternate history, we would still be drowned in western opulence and peace, which is why, in my opinion, most administrations are trying their damndest dealing with those problems in the smoothest way.

As I see it, we willl keep our western values mostly intact and learn to be more agressive with them at least on the domestic side, and women will not fight against it much more than men does. Its less a men vs women, more a genderless ideological struggle; in which gender influence thinking process, but not enough to warrant the fall of western civilization argument. If the western civilization falls, it will be with the help of everyone.

1600?
It's exactly that which might happen if we continue this beta-cuck-luvthemall attitude.

The specific date I had in mind was:
11 September 1683, Siege at Vienna.
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


I'll be less confrontational for the rest of this post to round it off:

I've grown up in the borderlands between "cultural enrichers" and the average normal middle class swedes(aka. beta-cuck-multiculturalist-racistophobic guiltmongerers)

10-15 years ago I started seeing some minor cultural clashes, they are all anecdotal(thus invalid for scientific purposes, but not political guilt or fear mongering according to the accepted political parties in Sweden)

My mother lives in this city, and so does many other mothers, sisters, wives and daughters:

There are no-go zones for police in Sweden...

To make this absolutley clear:
I do not hate anyone for being an immigrant.
I do not hate anyone for being a Muslim.
I do not hate anyone for having a different culture.

What I hate is:
Those who do not respect our native culture.
Those who act criminally.
Those traitors within our government/institutions that uses the argument: "They are from a different culture therefore it is more of an "innocent misunderstanding" than a criminal act when they sexually assault people"

All I want is some backbone, and honest respect for the western values our ancestor has fought and died for.

All of this is just emotional national/civilizational-romanticism, so I'll give some facts:

I think this clip is a bit too alarmist/shocking in its presentation, but the subject is an important one.
This clip is: 13:42 long

Because Demography(age and gender) is not taken in to account when allowing different immigrants we(Sweden and Germany mostly) are importing a distorted version of another culture.
For example: Men between 20-35 are overrepresented, men between 20-35 are not only immigrants, they have abandoned their families and deserted their tribe/nation if we judge them by their own culture. Of course this generalization does not apply to all of them, but "only" most of them.
According to some data: Cultural, ancestral and genetically German men aged 20-35 wil be make up less than half of the population in their demographic category by 2020. This is only a problem if you have a fixed idea about what a German is, you know like: German behavior, appearance and cultural practices.

Personally I don't give a shit about the cultural/ethnic/"racial"/religious aspects of being: Swedish or German etc.
What I care about is: The ideology that piggy backs on religious and cultural practices, my problem is the invasion of values that are not compatible with, even antithetical to, western values.

Anecdote(thus only usable in populist argument not as "fact"): Swedes take western values for granted, we do not realise that these values are a part of our cultural and (non-)religious practices. It is obvious to me that fewer and fewer swedish citizen will have these values as our segregated communites produce new citizen that has not had our cultural and (non-)religious  upbringing.

For me the solution is very controversial: Early childhood mandatory education in western values, which at first glance will look like indoctrination, inf act it will be indoctrination of you take a second, third.... 50th glance at it... but the main point is the teaching on how to think/act in our society, not dogmatically enforce what to think or how to act.


To bring this back to the topic:
In general:
Women want a strong fair inclusive all-loving state as a surrogate Beta-"Dad" that will protect them loyally until that 50 shades of grey alpha just comes and take them.

Men want women, and also wants to be the best man around. Civilization is awesome in making some beta-male qualities in to virtues. Which makes us able to build a particle accelerators and go to the moon rather than spend that time on trying to break into the prime-alpha's harem.

Okay, I can see your emotional investment.

But you gotta give me a more coherent argument than "beta cuck, China strong alpha" 4chan level thinking for why we should go back on the emancipation of women to be taken even halfway seriously.

It's thought to be one of those key factors that allowed western society to rise much faster than the Islamic ones, for christsake. Allowing half of the population to contribute in economic production, the sciences and so on.
Frankly, I'm amazed I even have to talk about this.

I'm talking about the right to vote specifically

Maybe it doesn't have to be all voting rights.
For example:
We have three elections in Sweden:
Municipality
County
and National(Government)

Women should be able to vote at the Municipality and County level, but not the National level.


Here's a rough draft of the ideas I'm toying with.

How do you protect you child/younger sibling in this situation: He/she is next to you and about to run out in the street in front of a truck? You have 0,5 seconds to do something.

1. Do you tell them softly to look out, and try to reason with them to not do it?
2. Do you yell something, which is a micro aggression and should be considered child abuse?
3. You wouldn't grab them and rob them of their freedom of movement would you?
That's not only a micro aggression, it will traumatize the kid and make him believe might makes right and that grabbing and holding someone like that can be done without an apparent reason.
4. Turn around and go home to play crpg not giving a shit.

The state of Sweden is bad, I dread the summer festivals/parties and all the stuff that will happen.

How do you jump from green to arange? is this completely out of context or are you comparing women with children?

and how on earth do you jump from there to an article about rape under ISIS?
Do you know something about the ISIS? Women have no election right in the islamic state. So one of your key political ideas is closer to ISIS than to western values. congrats.
and your article about rape under ISIS.... you know that sexual abuse is much more common in countries where woman have a lower social status and less rights? I really don't think I would serve my imaginary daughter well if I give all men the right to rule over her(by voting) and she only has to endure whatever is coming.
Go show some balls and visit your mom. have a cup of coffee with her and tell her you think she should give up her right to vote.
and please let me know how that went.

Yes, but such things don't go alone, not outside the simplest of thought experiments concerning societal interaction. If someone in an academic setting said that let's take away the voting rights of group X, and that taking those voting rights away would not affect group X's position in society in any way, they'd be laughed right out of the room.

Maybe it doesn't have to be all voting rights.
For example:
We have three elections in Sweden:
Municipality
County
and National(Government)

Women should be able to vote at the Municipality and County level, but not the National level.

I guess that leaves them with something to do at least.

Here's a rough draft of the ideas I'm toying with.
(click to show/hide)

These are ideas to be sure, but you left out how each of these would actually result in a societal good or improve the current situation or are simply morally important. Only here:

Quote
-Cultural view of Abortion/contraception needs to be addressed. The childbirths are plummeting and all this free sexuality is all very nice and fun ...and just wonderful. However it will spell the end for the sexually liberated society, The sexually repressed baby machines doesn't won't be that eager to perpetuate this sexual-liberty view.
Examples on solution would be: Base contraception abortion prizes on income and age:
Example on age categories:
Free for 15-16 or younger.
Very low base prize up until 18th birthday.
Prize increases until age 25 then stabilizes
Women should be encouraged to sterilization after the age of 35.
How to finance it all: Taxation on all fertile individuals.

You argued that: State power should be used to have our women breed more. And this would combat the Muslim threat. Unless I'm mistaken.

But the sterilization at 35 kinda fights against this. And the forced contraceptives for any woman in office.

And divorces should be difficult, because marriage is a commitment, except free divorces from women over 35?

What?

I'd advise you to get Tarkov, the community/forums are mostly quite cool and good natured as long as you don't speak about gun control, it's a good change from what I've seen on cRPG forums. The game looks promising and has a good starting community, definitely better than what one has got on cRPG nowadays.

Wow! Identity politics, my nationality somehow affects the quality of my arguments?

Do you need your nation to have a proud recent history in order for your arguments to have merit?
That's a really uncivilized and uncultivated intellectual climate.

Go show some balls and visit your mom. have a cup of coffee with her and tell her you think she should give up her right to vote.
and please let me know how that went.

Am I comparing them to children?
No, but the similarities with my analogy are striking when you watch what some of these naive women say(not necessarily how they are acting).

Women's freedom of movement has been unofficially restricted, if you do not follow the advice there is a willing white-guilt brigade ready to victim blame. There are several no-go zones so the problems are already here, Swedish citizens living effectively under sharia law.


Regarding the ISIS reference, it is currently the most violent faction of another "civilization". The problem is that they no-go zones in Sweden will experience a cultural shift towards something much more similar to ISIS than what it used to be: a working class social democrat suburb.
The changes that are happening in Sweden are insane for example: Unisex pools in public baths has to be segregated because of sexual molestations by men with a different cultural/moral/religious view on women.

Guess how the state media tries to offer a counter narrative:
You heard it... it's all men.


"Go show some balls and visit your mom. have a cup of coffee with her and tell her you think she should give up her right to vote.
and please let me know how that went." Challenge accepted, it will take a couple of months though, feel free to remind me.

I guess that leaves them with something to do at least.

Societal status of women are already being infringed, and I'm talking about native(3+ generation of ancestors born here) Swedish women. The police implied that going outside is dangerous at night in a town in central Sweden and that women should stay in doors at night. That implies you should self-restrict freedom of association, movement and expression. This is worse than being forced to stay at home, it is similar to having freedom of thought as long as you don't think about X and it is up to you to not think about X.

I know I'm alarmist now, but this trend will continue and it will get worse.

These are ideas to be sure, but you left out how each of these would actually result in a societal good or improve the current situation or are simply morally important. Only here:

You argued that: State power should be used to have our women breed more. And this would combat the Muslim threat. Unless I'm mistaken.

35+ is set arbitrarily it could be 40+
The point is that child borne to mothers in their late 30's and later has increased risks of birth defects. These birth defects should be responsibility of the mother to pay for(maybe insurance companies will start selling Childhealth insurances) because it is most likely caused by the age of the mother.

Final note on this: I didn't write sterilization, as in coerced chocolate chip cookie-style eugenics, I wrote it should be encouraged.

And divorces should be difficult, because marriage is a commitment, except free divorces from women over 35?

What?
Yup, childbearing(with lowest risk of birthdefects) days frequently over by then.

About that... when I think how most people are (men and women), only answer is to abolish voting altogether. Then I think again and realize that's worse option. Status quo is fine and democracy ain't that bad. Problem is, to achieve true democracy you need classless system like communism. Because class differences create issues that we blame democracy for. It is abuse of the few who make system look bad.

The problem isn't women being able to vote, the problem is women buying into that extreme left-wing bullshit more easily than men, especially since it's so "feminized" nowadays. And you won't get them back by treating them like little children who shouldn't be able to vote because they'll just make stupid decisions anyway.

Also right-wing parties are on the rise in europe and Merkels reign will soon be over (at least I hope we don't have to deal with her much longer), so we will see what happens in 5-10 years.

True.

Okay, now we have an argument that reproduction should be dis-encouraged by women over 35-40, because of the increased risk of birth defects. And the mechanisms for this would be encouraged sterilization and free divorces from women of that age and that women should be held responsible for any birth defects.
The pivotal question is if birth defects are a big enough societal problem to make these changes that fundamentally alter the status of women in western society.

I don't find this to be a position easily defended.

Societal status of women are already being infringed, and I'm talking about native(3+ generation of ancestors born here) Swedish women. The police implied that going outside is dangerous at night in a town in central Sweden and that women should stay in doors at night. That implies you should self-restrict freedom of association, movement and expression.

As disheartening to hear the police say that may be, they most likely did not say it as a legal opinion, but as advice to keep people safe. They communicated risk. It would be quite another thing to codify those into law.

This is worse than being forced to stay at home, it is similar to having freedom of thought as long as you don't think about X and it is up to you to not think about X.

What?

I'm sure more women would accept a risk of something happening when they go outside (there's always some risk in every case) rather than be forced to stay at home.

I seriously have no idea what you are trying to get across with this freedom of thought example.

This damn quoting system on this forum...

Regarding the right to vote part:
It is impossible to argue for removing the vote for women. I must honestly admit that there is not any real persuasive arguments that will not be construed as woman hating, anti-liberty and/or regression to the 1800's.

The pro arguments:
-The differences(in general) between male/female social structures. One example:
Response from work colleagues when they learned I was ill once:
Male colleagues: They focused on helping me with the work tasks, and was primarily concerned with me being able to work.
Female colleagues: Focused the entire attention on making sure I felt well, the concern was much more towards the state of mind rather than the ability to perform.

In summary: I want an effective state, not a feel good state.
I want fairness, swift proportional retribution rather than a clean pacifistic conscience. <---The last point is more of a problem with the beta-male-leftist-white-knights.

The following documentary is a very good argument for: Kindness, swift and proportional retribution followed by instant forgiveness when and if it has been earned.
Richard Dawkins - "Nice Guys Finish First" - Documentary 1986

As disheartening to hear the police say that may be, they most likely did not say it as a legal opinion, but as advice to keep people safe. They communicated risk. It would be quite another thing to codify those into law.

What?

I'm sure more women would accept a risk of something happening when they go outside (there's always some risk in every case) rather than be forced to stay at home.

I seriously have no idea what you are trying to get across with this freedom of thought example.

The freedom of thought analogy was meant to point out the risks that self-enforced restrictions on our liberties can easily get out of hand. It could escalate to victim blaming and soon thereafter laws will be put forward to enforce what the majority thinks is sensible.
It has already happened with restrictions on free speech/freedom of expression which has made those ideas and expressions to intellectual fetishes, which makes them attractive contrarian rebellious ideas/expressions, some of those adhering to them are just insecure persons that need something special to identify with to feel any sense of self-worth.

As I wrote I was a bit alarmist, and that is because of Swedish media covering up quite a lot.
This has made me lose my social liberal ideals in less than 6 months, I'm now a lot more aligned with the far right except for:
-Their archaic view on racial identity,
-Their overly vengeful attitude towards criminals,
-The notion that capitalism and a completely free market magically will respect the value of human life and well being.

MABTW forums were glorious back in the day.

Very entertaining to say the least.

This damn quoting system on this forum...

Regarding the right to vote part:
It is impossible to argue for removing the vote for women. I must honestly admit that there is not any real persuasive arguments that will not be construed as woman hating, anti-liberty and/or regression to the 1800's.

The pro arguments:
-The differences(in general) between male/female social structures. One example:
Response from work colleagues when they learned I was ill once:
Male colleagues: They focused on helping me with the work tasks, and was primarily concerned with me being able to work.
Female colleagues: Focused the entire attention on making sure I felt well, the concern was much more towards the state of mind rather than the ability to perform.

In summary: I want an effective state, not a feel good state.
I want fairness, swift proportional retribution rather than a clean pacifistic conscience. <---The last point is more of a problem with the beta-male-leftist-white-knights.

The following documentary is a very good argument for: Kindness, swift and proportional retribution followed by instant forgiveness when and if it has been earned.

You can't expect the people lurking on a forum of a 6yo dead mod of a 8yo dying game to have sane minds. I'd advise you to get Tarkov, the community/forums are mostly quite cool and good natured as long as you don't speak about gun control, it's a good change from what I've seen on cRPG forums. The game looks promising and has a good starting community, definitely better than what one has got on cRPG nowadays.

Warband is only a few months older than crpg, march 2010 ;)

Well, doesn't change the fact it's still old as fuck. Thought it was released on 2008 for some reason, probably because of the graphics.

Also right-wing parties are on the rise in europe

And that's a good thing according to you?

I guess all sane people left this forum long ago.
so what is left are morons and idiots each enjoying the stupidity of the other.

Thinking of leaving too TBH, at least all the political threads  :lol:

Too late to leave with your sanity intact, this train has left the station long time ago. You're verified moron and idiot, like the rest of us. SOrry!

Idk for your countries guys, but in France, left wings are doing right wings politics. Right wings would just be a little more hardcore, extreme-right a tad more.

Difference between left and right wing parties. Left wing = lying incompetent bastards. Right wing = (left wing)2. Only complete morons and retards believe things will change for the better once right wingers get in the saddle.

Right wing party ruling this shithole for past 6 years and we're living shittier than ever. Like we were during the war, when whole world imposed sanctions on us.
