To Be a Man or To Not

Was joined by John Preston last night, who is now retired from the alternative media. Wait wouldn’t “retired” imply he’s tired again? English is a shit language!

John (formerly of Q46), in all actuality, is pretty damn tired of boys running around pretending to be men, and hence, that was the focus of our discussion:

It is really easy to point out the slew of degenerative relationship instructions that women have received, but that’s not gonna do any one man any good anymore.

What is a “man?” The topic has come up before (a few times). Beyond fictional agenda-driven archetypes, we can say beyond doubt: a man stands up for what is right, and a man does not participate in collective dehumanization.

It’s time we accept some blame for what we’ve done to women, and how gladly we’ve participated in their degradation. The wise words above are from one Is a Curtain, a mystery I will, as mentioned last show, be looking into in the future.

One fact is certain is that if the “young men” we see about us today are the future, then we are fucked. The only thing we can hope to accomplish, is make sure that said future never exists. Changing the past is what my work has been about.

Clearly, we’ve been reduced to effeminate spectators in the game of courtship, watching our opportunities to “hunt” diminish, letting our skills rust, yet eagerly accepting whatever scraps we could get. But, let’s not become masochists about it. As said in relation to “truth,” there’s far too much of that going around already.

I appreciate John containing himself some what, as I know there are several seedy bois he would have loved to verbally slap around. I’m kind of torn on the topic myself. Yes, it’s easy to name the most obvious. Occasionally, I feel that it is not my job to stop people from buying a stream of crap which should be self-evident.

Then again, sometimes I am forced to wonder if by ignoring it, or leaving it up to others, we are then guilty of silently acquiescing to the actions of such. Thus, by failing to correct the embarrassing actions of those around us, are we condoning the behavior of the short-sighted arrogant drunk frat-boys around ourselves?

That is a question we’ll all have to ponder further in future shows. In the interim, don’t act surprised by what The Twist brings about [anyone following my work should know well by now]. Next week, me and a hamster will be connecting some old and new things together, and that’s all we can say about that now.

Note: I recently updated the most recent post with some new images and a few additional words, it’s worth taking another keen look at.
