"Men's Rights Activists" Love Trumps Attacks On Cruz's Wife. Oh dear.

These people have no moral compass when it comes to this. Major news outlets like Time magazine called Elliot Roger an MRA, without any proof. Literally trying to pin murders on MRA's.

Look up "Roosh V MRA", the first result is an old article Roosh V wrote criticizing MRA's and saying he isn't one, the rest of the results are major news outlets and award winning journalists calling him an MRA.

It's one of the most cult like attributes of mainstream feminism, it mirrors Scientologies "Fair game" doctrine, basically the belief that anyone who criticizes the group is fair game and you can justifiably ruin their life, frame them, destroy their image, etc.

Oh, and apparently MGTOWs have hired a "spokesman."

I just can't stop laughing when I read these smear jobs. I really don't think they have any idea the amount of free advertising and new supporters they are giving us out of their own pocket. The day they all stop slinging mud is the day I actually start to worry. Keep spending mainstream media, we need the publicity, and we sure can't afford it.

I'm now pretty sure this movement needs a politically informed, left wing or progressive platform.

The right end of it produces doing nothing (mgtow is a valid choice though), pick up and stupid quotes and comedy for the mainstream - and that been the case for decades. No progress.

When I think about it, the right platform actually provides no platform for change anyway. Its either keep things as they are, push even more right than our countries already are, and we are more right than we have been in 100 years and its shit, or go backwards but that would involve "socialism".

Anything that could help men is out of the question because rolling out homeless shelters or collective activism equates to "socialism". Fixing the replacement rate or improving wages for men, that would involve "socialism" too. Changing the current right wing regime - "socialism". Calling out the elites wealth grabbing - "socialism". Legal aid for men in custody or child support trouble - "socialism". Socialized health, addiction and mental care - "socialism".

Then pointing out that women have x, y z service while men don't ... its an ideological bind.

There is literally no direction that can go in.

“So, is it really an ‘attack’?” a spokesman for Men Going Their Own Way—a group that preaches the preservation of male sovereignty at all costs, including by staying away from women entirely—asked rhetorically. The spokesman, who didn’t give his name, continued:

MGTOW has official unnamed spokesmen... Excuse me my tinfoil hat is a bit dusty.

“People who have ugly wives should not comment on other men’s wives,” one user in a private chat room for MRAs said in response to a question from The Daily Beast.

If this was said in a private chat room, how the hell do you know about it? Why is the Daily Beast contacting random people an asking them about a political movement? If i contacted a random member of the democratic party and asked them several leading questions, could i then lambast Hillary over the answers?

There’s an entire section of the The Red Pill subreddit that seeks to explain how Trump’s ideas align with theirs.

Awsome, what does this have to do with mens rights? We are a human rights movement, not a dating service.

"Once again, Donald Trump is amplifying the voices of people who have been marginalized for good reason..."

Gotcha, men and the working class have been marginalized for good reasons. What a sexist, plutocratic piece of turd this writer is.

So-called men’s rights activists applauded, praising Trump for his virility and the attractiveness of his wife, and cheering that their ideas were at last getting a wider hearing. Daryush “Roosh” Valizadeh, leader of the “pro-rape” organization Return of Kings, told The Daily Beast that the tweet was warranted.

Oh for fuck's sake. Everything You Wanted To Know About Roosh But Were Afraid to Ask Q: Are you a men's rights activist?

Roosh: No, but I sympathize with their views. I would call myself a neomasculinist."

“So, is it really an ‘attack’?” a spokesman for Men Going Their Own Way...

LOLWUT?

The group hosting the conservation, in which The Daily Beast participated, is meant for believers in The Red Pill, an Internet-generated ideology that purports that men are oppressed and women are not.

I'm pretty sure their schtick is that "sexual strategy is amoral. Play to win. Lift. Game. Plate. Repeat."

These are people hiding behind usernames...

Sort of like that epic pussy, Thomas Paine..

Trump, who says things about women like “you have to treat ‘em like shit,” and does things like pouring wine on female reporters or bearing witness as his campaign manager physically grabs them, sounds a lot like the Internet commenters in their basements.

I'm confused here. Are we all Apex Alpha Trumps who treat women like shit? Or are we kissless virgins sitting the basement playing Evercrack and masturbating with heady blend of Cheetos, Mountain Dew and Jergens?

What about Cruz's attacks on Trump's wife?

"“So, is it really an ‘attack’?” a spokesman for Men Going Their Own Way—a group that preaches the preservation of male sovereignty at all costs, including by staying away from women entirely"

Patriarchal feminism in a spoon. Staying away from women is male supremacy, because women can't ever do anything for themselves and a man is misogynist if he doesn't submit.

The man is a macho pig.

It's because people like to tar their enemies with the same brush. I do it too. I think of feminists along the same lines as the KKK and neo-nazism in terms of being a hate movement. I guess they do that too because it's convenient to lump things into a duality of 'things that are good' and 'things that are bad'.

I thought the attack on Trump's wife was strange. Who WOULDN'T want someone that beautiful as First Lady?

And frankly, I love the idea of a porn star (I call it like I see it) in the White House. It would give the US the moral shake-up it so desperately needs.

The attack on Cruz's wife... well, if that's really what she looked like at that instant, how is that an attack? By white-knighting, Cruz is the one who validated the attack, instead of just saying, "Yeah, that's her. So what of it?" His over-reaction basically confirms that he agrees she's ugly.

Do politicians not understand politics any more?
