IF you are a MGYOW for sometime, chances are you see Luis CK body of work as little masterpieces of red-pilling. There’s one in particular that takes some tears out of me, and I would like say somethings about it. it’s the 3rd season finale “New Year's Eve”. Some spoilers ahead btw :)

The episode starts with Louie fighting to prepare the Xmas gifts for his two daughters. In an attempt to please the older one, he actually rebuilds almost from scratch a doll which came with defective eyes. Not only the sequence is hilarious, but the metaphor of Luis trying to understand how that little female character works is, at least to me, remarkable.

For the little one, he gives her a bedtime story book about a family of ducks. In the book, there’s a reference of the Yangtze river in China. He reads the story. The background music inspires an exotic ancient China atmosphere.

His ex-wife arrives with the current blue-pi… ahem.. husband to catch the girls and take them to spend the new years in some beach resort. The image is iconic. Luis, after all his effort, watches powerlessly his daughters depart with the wife and husband, and the only thing he can do is to fix the mess caused by the xmas tree and all the gifts.

His sister calls him to request his attention and presence in a trip to Mexico, which he denies. He has a bad dream about being alone and forgotten, and he decides to accept the invitation from her sister. On his way to the airport, he meets a previous girl he met and tragically (Actually is pretty bizarrely fun), she dies right at midnight. Then the magic moment happens. Luis decides to GHOW, and buy a ticket to China, to find the Yeng Tse river, which is disappointing as hell. He them just walks randomly in the country and meets a very humble family, who’ll gladly accept him as part of the family without even knowing him, and without even being able to understand him. They eat, drink and have a good time together. No judgment. No constraints. Only true happyness.

The scene is sensible, human and poetic. I might be biased for being a MGMOW but the references are so strong and neat that I have a hard time to believe he didn’t do on purpose.

Louie is not only telling us the the western society is decadent and we should pursuit our dreams and go our own way, but also makes a case of being more egocentric and not care about family and western traditions. Our traditions, apparently are superficial and broken (just like the doll), as opposed to the eastern values being solid, human, free of prejudice and above any culture differences.

CK is to me one of the most brilliant writers alive today. He’s a victim of the feminazi propaganda and he will always have my support and admiration, not only for this little gem of comedy, but also on false accusations incident, his carrier, and of course for his body of work.
