The denigration of men:Ridiculed, abused, exploited-the triumph of feminism has made today's men sec
UK Daily Mail ^ | 17 April 2015 | Peter Lloyd

We’ve led all the industrial revolutions and sent rockets into Space. We’ve fought wars with tin hats and bayonets and won them. The world we live in would be nothing without Alexander Graham Bell, Sigmund Freud, Horatio Nelson, Winston Churchill, William Shakespeare and Albert Einstein. The geniuses Leonardo da Vinci, Stephen Hawking, Michelangelo, Beethoven, Charles Darwin and Michael Faraday have all contributed immeasurably to our modern lives.

So why is it that, today, there has there never been a worse time to be a man? Rubbishing the male of the species and everything he stands for is a disturbing — and growing — 21st century phenomenon. It is the fashionable fascism of millions of women — and many, many men, too. Instead of feeling proud of our achievements, we men are forced to spend our time apologising for them.

In 2013 the Labour MP Diane Abbott made a damning speech about Britain’s men and boys, smugly announcing that masculinity was ‘in crisis’.

She sneered that men were choosing to stay in ‘extended adolescence’ by living at home with their parents —

In our anxiety to support women’s emancipation we have allowed our intellectual ability, our emotional intelligence and our capacity for commitment to be endlessly ridiculed.

Obviously, this isn’t to say that girls are having a brilliant time of it. Most of society is well versed in the problems and pressures faced by women —

But, unlike us, they get column inches and air time. They get government funding and MPs. They have a vocal community who will stand in their defence.

We men, on the other hand, have nobody. We are of no interest to MPs, UN panels or charities. If we want somebody to fight our corner, we are going to have to do it ourselves.

It takes two things to be a man: Honor and Courage. The two are essential.

None will “disappear”. All will eventually be mixed into one. It’s a matter of maintaining culture through the mixing process.

White Europeans had complete control of western culture as they brought in the immigrants. In the early days of modern travel even whites were segregated by nationality and had to be heavily assimilated into the nation they moved.

But this time instead of encouraging assimilation and perpetuating the culture, we blew it all for cheap marketing, labor and votes. We’ve been sold out again, nothing new...

It’s actually part of a process: men will see that being tyrants in their homes is not a winner, that demanding respect because they have whiskers is a loser and they will hopefully consider becoming the strong husband-protector shepherds they were meant to be

The Muzzies are using it as a recruiting point. I have seen some anti-feminist websites eventually go Muzzie.

The Muzzies must be confused because they are fighting for “men’s rights” as perverted as it may be and there is extreme push back from the west. They must be confused as to why western men aren’t on board.

Because we’ve let them. When men became too scared to defend their own masculinity, women took it from them like a bully taking the nerdy kid’s milk money.

You have to be willing to FIGHT to keep the things you value.

We weren’t.

And who led the charge, but homowood, where writers less than men and feminists brimming with hate, composed the scripts with veiled hatred for every man. We owe the corrupt old media and homowood so much.

It has nothing to do with race—liberty is not constrained by color.

But it has everything to do with culture and historical traditions handed down. And there is a high correlation between culture and race, simply because various cultures evolved in specific parts of the world where specific races had lived for millennia. Not PC, but reality.

There is certainly a correlation, but race as generally defined (really skin tone), plays little role. I agree completely that culture defines a people, not race. Arabs and Jews are the same race, but their cultures span an inseparable gulf. After all, what race is American? The American ideal superceded race—at least I’d did before LBJ.

The reality is that Americans of all races who believe in American values see the decline of our culture. That decline which despises everything America has meant—God, family and country and liberty in a land of opportunity—was not lead by minorities, but by the very white, very rich, very leftist elite.

Only paritially. It's also being led by Jackson and Sharpton and a large gaggle of enthic and identify studies type majors and others who subscribe to their 'teachings', and those in and subscribing to the racial and ethnic grievance industry that is one of the real growth industries in the US.

And overall, a minority of whites and a significant majority of several ethnic minorities and narrow interest groups form an anti-American coalition. There is a strong correlation between culture/race/ethnicity and who is and is not involved in anti-American and anti-Judeo/Christian values activity.

You can pretty well look at the level of support for the Democrat party received from any given group and get an accurate picture.

True enough, but those few minority “leaders” are just lackeys for the real leftists. While they keep their “constituents” on script, they are just grifters. And yes, minority support is the base of leftism, but minorities are not the true beneficiaries. The real money and power all accrues to the government and its cronies.

It has nothing to do with race—liberty is not constrained by color. I would rather live as a racial minority in a Judeo-Christian culture, than an egalitarian citizen in some homogenous, progressive dystopia.

The Church is growing in Russia and China, sometimes under oppressive conditions, even it is being abandoned by the West. It's reassuring to know that God's Kingdom will continue even without us, but as an American I fear for our future if we don't change directions soon.
