Petro Masculinity

Do you remember gay modernity? This is a similar kind of discourse. And Andrew Tate lives in their heads rent free. Some OG manosphere types think he is British intelligence psy-op to discredit men’s grievance movement, and anti-feminist sentiment. That’s why you see British press regurgitate his image all the time to imprint it in the minds of their drone readers.

While it won’t come as news to most that, compared with women, men litter more, recycle less, and leave a bigger carbon footprint There’s something more extreme than simple thoughtlessness causing young men, in a form of anti-environmental protest known as “rolling coal”, to modify the diesel engines on their pickup trucks to deliberately belch large amounts of grey-black exhaust, and then run Priuses and bicyclists off the road.

Prius is girly and bicycles are gay.😆👌

What connects the dots here is something more unhinged and tangled: a hyper-aggressive, oil-soaked version of toxic masculinity known as “petro-masculinity”. And it’s crucial to understanding why we as a society are failing to rally behind a shared ecological vision.

Petrol ⛽️ is toxically masculine. 😆👌 How does stepping on gas and hearing the engine roar make you feel?

As a longtime climate activist, I’d seen this gendering of the climate fight up close and personal. Whether it was Fox pundits factlessly spouting climate denial or dude-trolls calling you a “cuck” in the comments just for caring about the planet, it was impossible not to notice a certain type of man with certain type of attitude: usually white male and angry, fronting an aggressive – and noticeably dick-ish – defense of the fossil fuel status quo. It usually came with a strutting display of male prerogative and privilege, including the privilege of destroying the planet, if that’s what they felt like.

Fossil fuels have been deposited in the ground by ancient lifeforms in the Carboniferous period for us humans to find them and make use of them. I don’t think there is anything unnatural about them. Carbon in the atmosphere will be eventually absorbed by plants and other organisms on land and in the seas. I am personally much more concerned about habitat destruction, loss of nature, than burning coal. Today coal can be burned in a much cleaner manner than in the past. I don’t know why we shouldn’t keep making use of it if it still found in the ground?

Rad vs. Trad

This is not an original idea…

Radical feminism and traditionalism are two sides of the same coin that inform the soyciety’s attitude towards men. Radical feminism stands on the left, traditionalism stands on the right.

Radical feminism informs the legal practice in many countries. They are behind the no-fault divorce, Duluth model of domestic violence, me too, expanded definition of rape. In this legal and discursive milieu, right-wingers are unable to come up with anything better than to tell the men to just man up and get married.

So let me get this straight, the right-wing hasn’t come up with anything new in the last 10 years, ever since I became interested in these issues. The right wing pushes this blue pill traditional marriage even though they must be aware that the soyciety is hostile to men, and increasingly more rewarding of bad behaviour in women.

This is the essence of what is known in the depths of the internet as the red pill. The red pill is not a cure. The red pill, like in the movie Matrix will show how deep the rabbit hole goes. The realisation that the reality you are presented, the reality that you are cajoled into by right-wing tossers is not the actual reality that has long been perverted by left-wing swine.

On a more light level this disconnect can be seen in the simple notion that men ought to pay on dates, while we celebrate strong and independent women that need no man. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind paying for a dinner date but for the last 6 years, the girls I invited for a dinner were girls I had sex with first. I am no sucker that pays for dinners and gets no box.

Remember, the majority of modern women are single use only. The longer you remain with them, the greater the peril, the greater the trouble…

Here is a small 2024 update:

The Rad vs. Trad in Relations between the sexes

The women are torn between the traditionalist and radfem existence. Think of this, they can find a man and be a housewife, at least there is some chance of it. But this leaves them vulnerable to being Lauren Southerned. Reading through Lauren Southern’s account, I am ashamed of being harsh towards her in my posts. She chose poorly the man to be a housewife to and now she is a single mom. From a male perspective, you can’t really have a traditional relationship because you are at the mercy of a feminist legal system, and the women run the risk of the man using the liberal divorce system to get rid of the wife.

But the feminist answer to this is to become a career woman. (I have touched on this shit in posts here, here, here, here, here, here), a boss bitch that foregoes motherhood and then freezes her eggs, or dries up. One option offers the women the danger to be abandoned and become a single mom, or become a dried up childless boss bitch.

Lauren Southern’s story reads like a shitshow of how damaged modern relationships are.

So how do you balance the two prospects? I can of course write another one dozen posts about how we men have it bad in the gynocracy, and I do not think I would be wrong but the modern woman’s predicament is definitely something unenviable. Combined with women’s strange selection of male partners, they are, dare I say fucked. Don’t be a Captain Save a hoe.

Globohomo West vs. Russian World

Respect for minorities, equal human rights, this is the West. Homophobia as a state ideology, cult of masculinity and patriarchy that the Russian World. I am for the same name (for marriage), and equal rights. I would accept a different name and equal rights. But nothing more. I hope that we will be able to decide correctly in the third reading.

Marriage for all is progressing, we need a last step.

Russia has laws against pushing homosexuality on the kids and newly bars international LGBT organizations to meddle in Russian affairs. They labeled their activism as extremist. By the way, the latter operated in Russia until quite recently.

I have not noticed Russia to have a masculinity cult, or to be somehow patriarchal. Many some conservative Orthodox Christians or Muslims are patriarchal but the bulk of the population is not. Russia is a culture of simps giving random women flowers on International Women’s Day. The latter is not celebrated in Czechia because it is a Communist holiday by the way. Friedrich Engels was the biggest simp.

Ukrainian women that fled to the West complain western dudes do not simp for them like the weasels back home. Russia is highly gynocentric, has a high divorce rate, and blokes report getting the short end of the stick in the courts. In this respect it is not very different from the West.

Also, I quite do not understand what is wrong with being patriarchal, and being the man of the house, wearing pants in the relationship. You wanna be a sissy and let the women walk all over you? You are welcome, go ahead!
