What is essential “man knowledge”?

The odds are against you. The system wants you to live an unhappy life. It will take years of deprograming yourself of cultural conditioning to live life on your terms. It will then take daily effort to remain grounded.

No one will ever appreciate you. Deal with it. Men are viewed as pack mules. Working your ass off to support your family is simply what you are supposed to do. Meanwhile you’ll be expected to trip over yourself rushing to tell a woman how great she is for simply breathing.

People do not want to be happy, as becoming happy requires you to take action.

Miserable people won’t watch a sunset or volunteer at a soup kitchen, even though those activities are proven to increase happiness. Stressed out people aren’t going to meditate.

People love being “who they are,” as that requires them to take no effort to change. Avoid those people like the plague, as they are diseased of the mind.

90% of men are miserable. 99% of women are miserable.

Finding happy friends as a man will be a constant challenge. Finding a happy woman is even harder.

The best strategy to find quality people is to become one yourself while ruthlessly cutting out toxic people, users, and manipulators.

Ever hour you spend with a moron, unhappy man, or gossip-mongering woman is an hour you’re not spending living your life vision.

Women don’t complain because they want change. They complain because that’s what they like to do.

There is no denying that humans can be altruistic beings who are often willing to help others in need. But many men specifically seem to be hard-wired by genetics to want to help women even if it means putting their own lives at risk. Whether this is due to biological drive or cultural conditioning is of little importance. What is important is to understand the implications of helping a woman who you have no previous connection with so that you are not putting yourself in unnecessary danger.

Know that we are living in a modern society where most other people you encounter are complete strangers whom you know nothing about. It is understandable to protect and save someone you know and care for, but there is no reason for you to jump in and be the knight in shinning armor to save some nameless person just because she happens to lack a Y chromosome.

Of course, it all depends on the specific situation you are faced with. But if you find yourself habitually white-knighting for women, here are 7 reasons to pause and reconsider your motives and what you’re getting yourself into.

To be a man is to impose your will on reality.

If you’re an attractive woman – or even a decent looking woman – you can merely show up for life. You will be taken care of. Some man will marry you. If you’re especially gorgeous and do not waste your prime years partying, men will compete for you.

Even female dregs have strong safe nets. A woman who has children out-of-wedlock will find support from the state. There are charities for all aspects of womanhood. NFL players even wear pink socks to “raise awareness” for breast cancer.

A man – no matter how smart or handsome he may be – who shows up for life is going to face a reckoning. No one cares. No one is going to do you any favors.

Either you impose your will on reality – and trust me, reality will push back hard – or you die.
The only way to live as a man is to embrace the struggle and to take what is yours.

So I ask: why should German men be expected to now rush to defend the German women who have scorned them for so long?

For so long, us men of the West have been shamed into relenting to women’s needs and demands. This is just the next step of it: the liberal movement is now raising expectations that all men are to white knight and defend all women.

Defend women at all costs, including with your own life. On a subconscious level, humans are all aware that eggs are quite a bit more valuable than sperm. It’s why men always did fight and die for their women and children: it gave the best chance of their tribe’s survival. However, this is the first time that the feminist movement has ever been so blatant with their message: a woman’s life is infinitely more valuable than a man’s, and a man should not hesitate to give his for hers… even a complete stranger.

Women should not vote.

Before I get to the three reasons that women should not vote, let’s tackle the issue of misogyny. Does thinking women should not vote mean that I hate women? Well, no. It doesn’t. We don’t let 17 year olds vote, either, and that’s not because we hate 17 year olds. It’s not even because we think that crossing the rubicon of one’s 18th birthday automatically bestows some magical maturity and adult capacity that 17 year olds simply don’t have: it’s because 17 year olds can’t be drafted. The vote is intrinsically tied to the draft. I’ll explain in a moment why women can never be drafted, but the issue is ground zero in why women should not vote, and why denying women the vote has nothing to do with misogyny.

I won’t get away so easy with the other two reasons, but both of those reasons ultimately lead back to the draft, so I’m prepared to defend myself. Saying that women should not vote is not misogyny.

Here are my three reasons women should not vote:

Korea and Vietnam know a thing or two about eating American bombs and having their geographic regions destabilized, yet I am unaware that any refugees from those countries retaliated by filling pressure cookers full of ball bearings to kill children watching a foot race. I’m unfamiliar with any Koreans who flew commercial aircraft into the side of buildings. I’m unfamiliar with Vietnamese refugees who went into restaurants and concert halls to shoot innocent people whilst screaming religious slogans. There has been a shocking dearth of Asian gangs roaming public squares, committing mass theft, sexual assault and rape. Koreans have demonstrated a decided unwillingness to rape 10 year old boys during ‘sexual emergencies’.

Germans, Italians, Serbians, Koreans, Vietnamese – they came to America to take advantage of the opportunity to work and grow wealthy. And they have done a remarkably good job. America has successfully absorbed wave after wave of immigrants they have bombed the shit out of, because those immigrants were coming to celebrate and embrace our values of liberty, freedom and democracy.

Our new immigrants have no such intentions. The number of Muslims globally who want to live under Sharia law is terrifying, and the fact that it’s hard to get good data on how many American Muslims share those ideas is troubling in and of itself.

The point of saving money, of course, isn’t necessarily to live like a Buddhist monk (although that is a possibility if you seek an ascetic life), the point of it is to prioritize what you truly value in life. With more money, more time, and less clutter to distract you, you will be in a better position to strive ahead towards your goals and ambitions.

Using the tips I mentioned above (minus the fact that I went to university), I was able to pay off all my student loan and save around $10,000 working a part-time job. I would have saved thousands more if I had applied those principles sooner. And I was able to accomplish this within few years of my graduation while living in a meaninglessly expensive hellhole in Canada. While others are still stuck because they blew their money on brainless “fun,” I invested my time and money on self-improvement and I’m now in a better situation than they can ever hope for.

You always have the choice between living for the moment and living for life. Choose wisely.
