Recently I’ve learned quite a bit about the Machiavellian tactics corporations use against people and...I was horrified.

“Doubt is our product is the tip of that rabbit hole.

Between the soft victim blaming, the lobbying against scientific research being transparent about their product, the rhetorical manipulation (“part of a balanced breakfast!”), the gaslighting, the corporation refusing anyone to actually pin down the nature of the product...doing literally anything to maximize profit under false pretenses of actually being pro-consumer when they’re being, simply, greedy fucks. They're disingenuous and manipulative, but somehow keep people on the hook.

It was the same exact manipulative shit I notice men use against women to maximize access to women and male supremacy and terrified me a bit. Yes, I expect corporations to act like that. Now, men...Pickmes...etc...that's different. Because, well, you don't expect people to act like manipulative and pressuring fucks, as if you're a product to be sold, but...here we are.

So, I wrote a silly story about this. Yeah, it's not quite the same as real life, but pay attention nonetheless.

Imagine the corporation – let’s call it Cockcorp - is “male greed/patriarchy”.

The “product” is a analog for “boyfriend/husband”--we’ll call it Wonderscrote™.

Wonderscrote is marketed as necessary for women—or else, they won’t be complete...said to be a miracle “cure” to feminine loneliness, depression, anxiety, hysteria, and insecurity.

Cockcorp executives know from trials that some Wonderscrotes are safe (abet usually have a placebo effect instead of an actual positive effect), but others just...aren’t. The manufacturing methods lead to certain potentially dangerous differences in many of the final products that are highly costly to detect and fix, therefore, something buried.

Many levels of this corporation are aware of some signs a Wonderscrote is dangerous...but, they keep it a secret and don’t see the point in warning the consumer or educating them because it might decrease sales or make millions of the defective, toxic Wonderscrotes end up in landfills, argued by theorists to be something horrible for society/the environment--that women have a responsibility to care for one.

The corporation lobbies to deplatform women, websites, scientists, and other groups standardizing how to perceive Wonderscrotes or their issues—labeling them as “anti-progress” and against free will and capitalism.

Cockcorp refuses to look at ways of improving the product, or what’s even causing these impurities, or wondering why some impurities seem to be comorbid, occuring together in weirdly specific patterns.

Their ads and sales from marketing pitches subtly neg women more and more, while the salespeople sow vulnerability and confusion in individual women. Women’s insecurity is ripe for the harvest.

And not just them--much of the public shares their religious fervor for the Wonderscrote. They basically do much of the dirty work for the corporation...they’re the friends, family coworkers of the targeted consumers.

“Well, the last Wonderscrote you got must have just been damaged in transit! That’s why it hurt you!” a friend tells a woman whose Wonderscrote made her deathly ill. “Wonderscrotes are amazing. Don’t let those shrill nonbelievers tell you different!” Alternatively, the people that swarm in when a woman talks about how her Wonderscrote damaged her health somehow.

“Not all Wonderscrotes! You just chose wrong or did something wrong! I bet you don’t know the first thing about taking care of your Wonderscrote.” “You CHOSE that one because you liked it! You knew EXACTLY what it’d do to you!”

Damning, nightmarish anecdotes of Wonderscrotes causing women harm pour in. Cockcorp chills and drinks tea.

They pay off scientists to blunt the 1000s of research papers coming out about the nature of the product; even when it’s negative, there’s always a perpetual “well, see us next time because nothing conclusive is here! Next!” Consumers are lead to believe that, well, nothing really was settled, why not just continue? They make up stories about the female victims of Wonderscrotes about them being degenerates living a risky life and basically "asking for it."

Whenever an honest debate springs up...no "conclusion" about what women should do is ever made.

Then...it goes on and on…until, the public is saying very creepy things—like, how defective Wonderscrotes have character and are actually MORE trustworthy. Or so that’s what Cockcorp is pushing—instead of the seemingly ok models being normalized, it’s now the questionable models being normalized...”they’re just more authentic and realistic.” The lines between a dangerous Scrote and an actual safe one is blurred while...subtly, women are encouraged to buy the more dangerous ones thinking they’re nicer.

The final evolution of the Wonderscrote is that of feminine empowerment.

It runs campaigns. To adopt progressiveness for material gain is “Recuperation.”

The women that really question the nature of the Wonderscrote are considered bitter, weak, and envious; they’re labeled as being too unattractive “poor” to afford one. They’re labeled as being against female equality, and actively shamed by the masses because, well. They make women look bad. In reality some have plenty of money, yet still find issues with the Scrotes. Without fail they are censored.

Cockcorp tries to gaslight the masses. “We’ve found evidence that it isn’t our product causing the issues. It’s something completely unrelated. We’re not accountable…you’re to blame. See our pamphlet of 10000 ways to not make your Wonderscrote hurt you!”

The last thing the corporation wants is to lose access to consumers. Sowing doubt in the masses is how they profit.

Now, let's step back. This is the summit of these issues—male consumption being optimized.

The point isn’t “man iz object” (also thank god at least some of the worst things are in fact “standardized” as being issues), more that some creepy incel shit is being normalized in society or else women are unfairly framed as shallow, judgmental, and “asking” to be abused…

...ironically, often, women ARE framed as an actual communistic resource by men. It’s just you aren’t allowed to point out the profound male entitlement towards women this systematic oppression indicates.

Y’know, it’s fascinating. See. A lot of people like fun, amazing, chemistry-full, adventurous (like, actually going places). But, instead of looking for signs that a relationship can a valid in the long-run – well, depending on what she wants...NVMs naturally want to pressure her to date any low-status neurotic male, many of whom are way more likely to be dangerous.

The “Cockcorp” of real life functions by attacking any attempt at STANDARDIZING the everyday markers of male goodness or badness, particularly if it entails taking action, because taking action entails limiting male access to women and having men make more of an effort.

It’s like a “corporation” because as much as women are pressured to conforming because it’s “nicer”...what it really is about is, simply, the monster of male greed.

It’s usually the passive, insecure guy that isn’t actually actively kind that’s being sold as the "nice guy"? That's overcompensation, that’s lies, that’s manipulation.

Haven’t you also noticed that a lot of guys bitching about women liking bad guys, also bitch and spew hatred about men that act like actual good men and putting in meaningful effort, and a woman apparently liking it? Yes. That’s not random either. It’s because they are saying shit to maximize blaming women as much as humanly possible...not because they actually know what a good man does, or really care.

Because, what's being pushed is that ambiguity and passivity, not the functional actions and reality of a man, is what proves his goodness. Because, that's OPTIMAL for male greed. That's it. These people are ruthless victim blaming psychopaths. You can't trust them.

Hell. Might be something dumb. You could say multiple times that you have a fatal allergy to peanuts and he would get you a peanut stir fry. There's always some asshole calling her entitled if she were to get frustrated. Sure. Not all critics, though, that’s really enough to make women doubt themselves. A lot of people are assholes, like, they encourage this as being the dominant frame of action in a relationship: Nihilism.

I mean, men don’t want a real discussion about how to help—they want to make themselves LOOK GOOD. And obviously this is "duh", yet it still doesn't stop how ruthlessly they still pretend they're saying what's for the best and shit like that, which fools Pickmes.

It doesn’t seem to occur to anyone that someone can be “greedy” about sex, status, ego, accessibility to others, and reward/dopamine...and men are generally greedy pigs and really just hate women or see women like objects, objects whose feelings and traumas they don’t give a shit about and this is even normal among guys labeled as “nice guys” among other men and women.
Misogyny and oppression against women and men simping for horrible men is everywhere, so much so that I even notice regular people feeding into it regularly.

Tl;dr: doubt and ambiguity is horrible for women, and people love making sure that’s exactly what defines and rules women’s dating lives because to actually acknowledge the reality of men being riskier to date on average is to sabotage the institution of male greed...and, moreover, destroying any standard, meaningful measures women actually have to judge if a guy is actually a good guy.

I'm perpetually terrified of men's violent rhetoric and strategies.
