    It doesn't matter if women are "sexually harassed" or not. It does not matter to anything important at all. If they can't stand up for themselves and function in their job against adversity, they need to stay in the house and exist in their traditional role. We don't need them to work. Men can do everything woman can do in the economy.

    Our society is becoming completely and totally unhinged because of all the double standards. Everyone is going insane. We do not need to adapt the workplace to women. Women need to adapt to the workplace. The weak must adapt to nature. Nature must not adapt to the weak.

    This is all a symptom of the rampant interventionism of the government in every aspect of life. The plutocrats are simply destabilizing every aspect of society they can access with government, education, and media so they can manipulate us into giving up our humanity and becoming worker drones.

    We need to destroy this system and start over or we are all going to be turned into insane brainless slaves who exist for purpose other than work. Humanity is being destroyed and you are letting it happen because "the poor women and minorities can't exist on their own strength in the 'white patriarchy'"

    FUCK the women and FUCK the minorities. If they can't play with the big boys then they can go back to the kitchen and the sandbox. We have no obligation to interrupt our productivity to let them participate. In fact we have an obligation to stop them from participating if they can't roll with the punches.
    We can't breed weakness into our society because some complete losers have hurt feelings. They should feel LUCKY to have nothing more than hurt feelings, because if nature has it's say they would be DEAD.

    You are trying to make a blanket statement to characterize every claim of sexual harassment and are implicitly placing guilt on men for every objection that the fundamentally and increasingly irrational feminist social justice warriors bring up.

    The problem with the honest (but misguided) sexual harassment accusers is that the "gray zone" is that it is constantly being expanded with double standards. The concept creep is rampant.

    The real problem is the dishonest or externally misguided accusers who take advantage of the fact that there is absolutely no check or balance against claims of abuse. These matters are being judged emotionally and not objectively.
    The only "evidence" submitted in almost every case is the testimony of the accuser herself, with no corroboration for that specific alleged event.
    Multiple accusers are not necessarily credible either as almost all of the time they still have no corroboration for the specific alleged event they are purporting.

    The most tired excuse is "well the male predator only strikes when they're alone together, so how are we supposed to get them into trouble unless our mere accusations are empowered by the mob and/or the courts?" Sorry, you have no proper recourse whatsoever nor do you deserve any. You can't make a mockery of justice because you have poor judgement. Don't be alone with a man you don't want an advance from. This has been the rule for all time. In every case, even if you are alone in a room with a man for some business purpose, there are other people nearby so you could not be said to be alone with this man.

    Stop blaming other people for your inability to function in the real world. If some one comes too near you, back away or otherwise use body language to repudiate. If they still come toward you, leave to go to an area with many people and tell some of them about it. There is no reason to, and you have no right to, go to a public platform and accuse this person of some wrongdoing. They have done nothing morally or ethically wrong. They have expressed their desire, and if that is wrong by social convention the scope of recourse is by right limited to the social situation in which it occurred.
    If you prevent an unwanted advance, you have not been attacked. You have no right to feel attacked. And you have no right to a platform to speak to the public about the event.
    We cannot let common social interactions become arbitrated by mob and then legislated by government. It robs our society of its strength, it props it up when it has no strength of its own.

    There is no excuse not to stand up for yourself. Unless you want the social validation of all that attention on you. Which is no doubt what motivates many of these accusers.

    "It's all a matter of power, Hicks pointed out -- and women have never had their share of it,"

    Here is some blatant Marxist propaganda, and very false at that.
    Rich versus poor, Higher class versus lower class, oppressor versus oppressed, winner versus loser, fit versus unfit, selected by nature for life versus selected by nature for death....and then they project this pattern, to which I could concede to an honest Marxist that there is at least some truth, onto something to which there is absolutely no truth: left ear versus right ear, left eye versus right eye, left hand versus right hand, left brain versus right brain, man versus women.
    First they begin by greatly (and most often disingenuously and falsely) characterizing the tradition wealth disparity.
    Then when you're worked up about that they slide in a similar image trying to get you to look on something entirely different with the same eyes. There are critical differences that you're more likely to ignore in an emotional state. They build up this emotion in the culture day after day, year after year, generation after generation until there is enough of this capital of human irrationality to slice a civilization in halves like a hatchet would split a bone lengthwise, and then they consume the marrow.
    Men and woman are complementary forces with distinct tendencies in behavior, many of which seem opposite for a given situation. I'm not going to go on about this, but that Damore Memo doesn't go nearly far enough. This is supposed by the Marxists to be "sexist". Sorry, but by your definition nature itself is "sexist", "wrong" and "evil".
    When a human tribe encounters a problem, men and women (are supposed to) attend to their different domains in order to cover all the aspects of the situation.

    This fool featured in the article goes on to attribute the necessities of economic forces to the ill will of "the patriarchy" with absolutely no logical argument.
    The simplest observation flips his narrative upside down to show its yellow belly: the industrialists don't care how the work gets done, they just want more work to get done. They don't see their slaves, so why would they care what they look like? They only care how to extract more labor from the population, which is why they drive wedges between us with the media, schools, and universities, which, of course, they own nearly all of. In this way they open up more shafts in their huge mine through unstable areas of the earth, getting at the gold they never could have reached before.

    So really, all that is going on right now is that some rich people are telling you that certain other rich people are bad so they can take their wealth and create even more disparity all the while giving you a tiny sliver of it and using technology to distract you from the overall astronomical growth of wealth of humanity.

    Conspiracy theory you say?
    This easy rejection of anything you don't want to hear is a canker, so I'll give a brief rebuttal. In short, look at the stock market. Everyone is invested in everyone else's business. So a collective interest forms. When you have a great deal of wealth you can afford to invest in everyone who shows promise, and so you profit greatly from the vast majority of successes and so gain influence over every success, many to a great degree. If you don't end up controlling a given success, odds are you know some one who does and has a significant stake in one of your own investments.
    And so the birthing grounds for conspiracy take form.

  18. What about what I said implies I don't want white women intermarrying? The fact that I remarked on the probabilities of certain social interactions? Even if I do care, how does that imply an attitude of supremacy? What if I believe all races should stick to marrying their own race? That makes me a white supremacist, a black supremacist, an asian supremacist, etc., all simultaneously?

    Your side is not rational at all as far as I can tell.
    You ignore data that shows the trends in races for difference in intelligence that controls for socioeconomic standing. Off the top of my head, try the Minnesota Transracial Adoption Study. You generally refuse the concept of race entirely, see Lewontin's Fallacy, or human history since the beginning of time.
    Race is a social construct, in that society provides SOME of the selection mechanisms for genes, and instinct provides for the rest (though instinct in turn can be modified by societal selection). But race is primarily constructed genetically. In every human action there is a seed of instinct, and every instinct is directly encoded in genetic material.

    The simple fact is that white people have undergone selection to live in western society for a hell of a lot longer than other people. Making things "equal" for other races artificially, by making RACE QUOTAS for education and employment, is pure and simple, with malicious intent, the destruction of both western society and the various tribes and admixtures thereof of "white" people. The simple fact is that the Aryan way of doing things (this includes/has included Hindus, Persians, and many others, who are NOT "white") has always been the best (and most consistently dominant) in the world (see: worldwide imperial domination since the beginning of recorded history), and moreover in recent times the Western European way of doing things has proved to dominate the entire world. "White" people will always trend for more success in their own habitat. The aristocracy is not just for fun, it's an extremely rigorous genetic selection mechanism. Society itself is quite rigorous, so even the peasants are deeply effected.
    It's not even about IQ alone, it's about all the genetic traits that interface with society.

    Sorry, but some people are just born better, and there is a correlation with race and class. The highest class people of the most dominant civilizations are generally genetically better than most peasants of anywhere on earth. This doesn't mean white people alone. It could be from any civilization. Everyone has a unique intelligence and mastery of their own domain. They don't even have to be from a great civilization. Australian aboriginals communicate spatial information verbally and can pinpoint waterholes in vast wastes. No one else does that.
    Trying to say that everyone is born equal is a deliberate attempt to erase the specialized knowledge humanity has accumulated over the generations.

    The only interest it serves is the interest of the plutocracy who are narrow minded to an astronomical extreme and want only slaves and eternal power and life they can never attain.
    And you help them because you refuse to confront your fears of inferiority. You refuse to confront reality.
