6 Harsh Truths That Will Make You a Better Person Man
There. Fixed that for you. Because if you were born with ovaries your usefulness is automatic as far as 200,000 years of evolutionary training are concerned.
That’s why every culture on the planet spent its formative years controlling the shit out of women like property because they were and are a valuable resource while men are experimental models who’s usefulness must be ascertained after production, their freedom, to a degree, is critical for the system’s evolution.
Sure women can sharpen this value, or they can demonstrate that they have and additional more critical value that eclipses it, but basically all this shit on the list only applies to men.
Take all the women in your life whom you’ve ever known. How many of them ended up with kids or at least a mate? I assure you you know more single men than single women and the above coupled with the things in this article are why. Women get a silver medal by default. Because even if they get the gold, so what? How is the wife of a billionaire different from a billionaire? Flip that around though and things get radically different, especially in a society that doesn’t enforce monogamy.
For women, as far as the gene game goes, there is no brass ring. Sure their offspring might have the best possible chance, but there are going to be like 20 of them at most. While a man can have thousands.
Women have ascribed value by default. Men have to achieve their value. That’s why we have manhood rituals, the harder the better (for the culture.)
But the question not asked by this article or sentiments like it, are we ants or minds? Is it genes or memes? And what would it take to falsify this position?
Tyler Durden was totally his job yes but he also kills himself at the end of the film. The point is to transcend this way of life. He wasn’t arguing about the way things were he was aiming at the way things should be. Thing is chuck (the author) didn’t have an answer. All his works scream that he lacks an answer. Best he could come up with is debt cancellation and a engineered social collapse. He wants to erase the board but has no idea what to put in its place.
This is the core mistake of backwards movements and lines of thought. Like the Unabomber.
I should not be my productivity.
Can I create a world where that doesn’t matter? Yes.

And that includes your efforts to perfect what you are. This also applies to the culture. A mob of us looking for better ways to placate a culture built on torture and selfishness is clearly not the answer.
Sure, Alec’s rant is adaptive. But then again so is rape in a world that only cares about results. The trick isn’t making yourself a better fit for that world, the trick is getting out of it and making a better one.
