already clearly advocates for the elimination of all non-whites. Now, &lt;a href="http://www.inmalafide.com/blog/2011/04/26/a-reminder-of-why-you-should-hate-nerds/"&gt;in a recent article&lt;/a&gt;, he essentially advocates for the elimination of the unattractive, disabled, socially awkward, and mentally unstable. Hitler's hatred for Jews (and Communists) was matched only by his hatred for societal outcasts like these. How much more Hitler-like can you get?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ironically, of course, Hitler was an unattractive (albeit charismatic) "loser"-type who wouldn't be welcomed into his own idealized society. Bardamu, without question, fits into the same category. I do not know if Bardamu openly identifies as a Nazi, but the similarities are striking regardless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cowardly, self-loathing scum like Hitler and Bardamu deserve only to reap what they sow in life.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-3422568039524216426?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/3422568039524216426/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/05/ferdinand-bardamu-pitiful-self-loathing.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/3422568039524216426'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/3422568039524216426'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/05/ferdinand-bardamu-pitiful-self-loathing.html' title='Ferdinand Bardamu: A Pitiful, Self-Loathing Adolf Hitler Wannabe'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-1250983828815581493</id><published>2011-05-02T04:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-02T04:12:07.404-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='idiots'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mras'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='game'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='feminism'/><title type='text'>This Is What An MRA Looks Like</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://manboobz.com/2011/05/01/be-aggressive-be-be-aggressive/#comments"&gt;Check out&lt;/a&gt; what criticism these self-described "MRAs" have for female-supremacist traitor David Futrelle:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Your just a runt.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;You put up that picture of Charles Altas so folks will think your not.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Your entire adult life has been  about coping with the aggressive sexual displays of bigger, taller,  more attractive men by throwing anti-male grenades at them. That’s why  your a feminist. … you support the false rape/harassment industry  because it acts to jail all those better men you can’t compete with.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;You and your mangina ilk are  what you have always been since high school. Nerds who think they can  win the cheerleader if they can get the football captain jailed as a  rapist."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Futrelle is an omega. The difference between betas and omegas is that  betas are usually accepted by alphas. They won’t get as much action,  but they are permitted to run in the alphas’ circle and thus can utilize  this foothold to more often score with beta women and perhaps even an  occasional alpha woman. So, in the end, it’s not TOO bad to be a beta-  you get action, and though you’re not dominant, you can always succeed  in other areas of life (financially, etc.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;However, omegas- again, such as Futrelle- lack even this outlet for  their sexual frustrations. They are completely shut out sexually, unless  they want to stoop to female omegas (fat chicks). This is the kind of  person you feminists flock to as a leader."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"I know it’s hard for you wishy-washy everyone’s a special snowflake  feminists, but you can essentially boil down men into the alpha, beta,  and omega categories. Alphas have their pick of women, and usually  choose the most attractive and charismatic- the “alpha female”. Beta men  can occasionally utilize their wiles and proximity to the alphas to  perhaps “fool” (for lack of a better word) an alpha woman into thinking  he’s an alpha man and thus obtain some action. However, it is rare for a  relationship to develop along these lines because eventually he will be  outed as a beta. Thus, beta men are found in serious relationships with  beta women- who may still be attractive, just not gorgeous. Thus, as I  said before, being a beta is not an intolerable position."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Okay, let me paint a picture of Futrelle, it’s very easy, he’s a  stock omega. Not knowing the guy at all, here’s a projected profile:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="comment-body"&gt;     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Age: 23&lt;br /&gt;Height: 5’6&lt;br /&gt;Weight: 135 or so- skinny but not too skinny&lt;br /&gt;Hair color: Brown, but with black “streaks” in his hair to give him “individuality”.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Futrelle grew up in a solidly middle class town, probably borderline  upper-middle class. Likewise, his family was well-off but not rich.  Suburbs, I would guess… maybe suburbs of Boston? He probably wasn’t  bullied per say, but simply ignored. Tried to make friends, especially  with the opposite sex, and they were put off by his glasses, high voice,  acne, and general awkwardness. Before college, his acne cleared up and  he got contacts. He hoped to reinvent himself as an alpha or at least a  beta, but unfortunately, his nerdiness and lack of social skills  remained, shunting him immediately down the status ladder into omega  territory. Futrelle was angry, very angry, and directed his rage at the  alphas that had socially isolated him. Usually his abnormally developed  writing skills, he took the fight to the internet, and we see Man Boobz a  result of his sexually frustrated toils.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I bet I was pretty close."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Anyway I just dropped by to expose Futrelle for the snivelling little omega that he is."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Men’s rights acknowledge this system (unlike dreamland fymynysts) and  understand the pain it causes many men. This is why MRAs embrace Game,  that which can level the playing field somewhat, but surprise surprise,  the femibitches don’t like Game, because then they have to give up some  of their power."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of all the horrid anti-male persecution collaborationists like Futrelle have helped further, in what manner does this self-proclaimed MRA choose to attack him? Ridiculing Futrelle's sexual prowess, calling him a runt, an omega, a nerd etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One sees the same directed at the infamous "Conscious Men" across the manosphere. The first thing typical MRAs started going off about was what weenies they are, how they can't get laid, and how their names are Gay Hendricks and Arjuna Ardagh teh lolz. Never mind that they're openly calling for male slavery and collective male guilt. lolz dem ugly geezers is ugly fagz dey cant get laid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This, in a nutshell, is what Game is all about. It is about harassing, bullying, belittling, and beating down other men. In other words, misandry. Game cult idiots believe if they please Massa real good, Massa will give them a nice little treat once in a a while. And they gotta whip the bad slaves to please Massa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As long as MRAs embrace Game, they'll just be aiding the feminists' anti-male crusade. MRAs sure the hell don't seem to bother much about men's rights anymore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My direct response to this deluded "Men's Right's Activist":&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Game and its ludicrous classifications ARE.NOT.REAL. Gamers are feminists. Gamers worship feminism.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;The gamers hook naive imbeciles like you into their feminist game  scam in order to control you and (optimally) make money off of you.  Believing yourself to belong in a caste such as alpha/beta/omega/etc is  to enslave yourself to feminists/gamers. They want males to think of  themselves as belonging to these castes so as to be considered non-human  sexual objects by society at large. You're just a useful idiot for feminists and gamers to control.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;There’s more to life than sex. Get that through your thick skull.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote style="color: black;"&gt;   &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-1250983828815581493?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/1250983828815581493/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/05/this-is-what-mra-looks-like.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/1250983828815581493'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/1250983828815581493'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/05/this-is-what-mra-looks-like.html' title='This Is What An MRA Looks Like'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-200331610082143189</id><published>2011-05-01T05:51:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-05-01T06:37:27.623-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='racism'/><title type='text'>Political Correctness Gone Wild!</title><content type='html'>I'm re-posting this comment I made at Counter-Feminist here. Because I like it.&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"'Conservatives' popularized "political correctness" as terminology. But the actual THING (as opposed to the word) is a child of the political left without a doubt."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But there's no actual thing there. When "liberals" act like hypocritical, self-important douchebags, as they so often do, call them hypocritical, self-important douchebags. There's no need for Orwellian, conspiratorial codewords.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"It's a fairly broad umbrella, which covers such matters as speech codes, identity politics, feminism, postmodernism, and "deconstructionism".&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Or at least, that is the melange which the average Joe or Jane is vaguely referring to. . ."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truthfully, the average Joe or Jane doesn't have the slightest clue what they mean by it, not even vaguely. It's just a handy codeword to pull out when their words (rightly or wrongly) are called into question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Examples of how "poltically correct" is used...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exhibit A:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Liberal": You know, I hate war, but I understand the humanitarian concerns involved and we do need to help those poor people and...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Conservative": Well I guess it's ok with me, as long as we get to kill more Islamofascist towelheads! We still haven't gotten enough revenge for 9/11! You don't fuck with America! And have you heard how they treat their women? REAL MEN would never treat women that way! Soon Muslims will take over Europe and institute Sharia law and rape millions of white women in broad daylight! We'll bomb those towelhead sand niggers back to the stone age! White power!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Liberal": Well, I'm a bit offended by the term towelhead. That's just racist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I agree with you that humanitarian intervention had to be made and it is true they treat women terribly there. There is misogyny inherent in Islam as with Christianity and other patriarchal religions. We always must try to aid women and children across the globe because...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Conservative": Wait, what?! I can say whatever I want about America's enemies! After 9/11, they deserve it. You're just being politically correct! Political Correctness is the downfall of America! It's just part of the Liberal-Socialist-Muslim-Chinese-Mexican-Gay-Catholic-Jew plot!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exhibit B:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Liberal": Have you heard about the recent tragedies in Japan? I really have mixed feelings at this moment, considering Japan's horrible whaling industry, but maybe we should all make a small donation...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Conservative": Haha, I love seeing those crazy Japs suffer! Don't you remember Pearl Harbor??? They deserved it! Hiroshima didn't go far enough!!! And what about the tentacle rape porn I heard about on the news?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Liberal": Well, I wouldn't go that far. You're being a tad racist there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But yes, Japan is a patriarchal society and they haven't fully embraced feminism there. So I really have mixed feelings but I really need to make a donation to feel good about myself so...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Conservative": Racist?! You're just being politically correct!

So we need to start coming out of the closet and not giving a fuck if they look down on us. As I stated, they already look down on us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The truth is for those who don’t care about what others think of them, and who are willing to question the status quo, even when it is unpopular, and even when it doesn’t have our benefit in mind. Any time a repressed or oppressed minority stands up to abuse of power against a dominant majority, it will never be a popular struggle. History shows this. People who want superiority over equality will not give up their power easily."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truly, I couldn't care less what this sickening society thinks of me, either. However, speaking out against it vocally will result in physical harm to people like us. I'm not willing to go to that level just yet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are entirely correct that we must not "stay in the closet", as you put it, our entire lives. Killing ourselves, staying quiet and accepting the abuse, these are idiotic ways of dealing with the situation. This is exactly what society wants us to do. They want to eradicate our existence, making us suffer as long and as much as possible while doing so. We just need to be careful about when to make our moves, and each of us needs to decide that on our own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's very important for the oppressed to break their cycle of oppression.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-141623286861966764?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/141623286861966764/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/04/timing-is-everything.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/141623286861966764'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/141623286861966764'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/04/timing-is-everything.html' title='Timing Is Everything'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-7371580803889878283</id><published>2011-04-29T18:21:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-29T18:21:05.958-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jihad'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='warfare'/><title type='text'>The Gamers and Racists Have Arrived: A Case Study in Psychological Torture</title><content type='html'>Ferdinand Bardamu, the administrator of a racist/gamer/Real Man website entitled "In Mala Fide", has recently instructed his minions to hunt out, stalk, and "beat down" any Aspie or "loser" blogs such as this one, in order to drive people like me to suicide. One of his minions has happily obliged and come here to do his duty, threats and all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As previously entries to this blog indicate, I am an exceptionally vulnerable individual. Such attempts at psychological torture do indeed achieve their goal (to a degree). Being an adult male does not make me an unaffected, emotionless robot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These people can instantaneously sniff out their prey upon contact. They are this way from the time they are born. There's no activity that children enjoy more than sniffing out the weak and vulnerable child amongst the group and proceeding to sadistically torture that child. These people do not change when they grow up. Never have I been more justified in my misanthropy. What is there to like about such sick, ugly, primal, disgusting creatures?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, due to the recent stalking and harassment, comments are henceforth closed on this blog. Not Even Human was never intended for a wide readership, and was only created as a means for me to vent my anger into the void of nothingness. As I stated, their over-the-internet psychological torture attempts are mildly successful on people like me. I can not allow such a thing to continue. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A new group of filth has leapt to the top of my enemy list, ahead of the feminists, the racists, and the rest. They are the gamers, the Real Men, the persecutors, the traitors, the sell-outs, the Uncle Toms. A new Jihad has begun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These people do what they do because they think they can get away with it. Far too often have beings like me laid down and taken it and taken it and taken it some more. It's a tragedy. I promise that I will not acquiesce without a fight. We MUST fight, no matter how futile the struggle is. There's nothing else for us in this world. We must not allow them to get away with it so easily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My suicide would be the optimal result for them. I will not give them that pleasure. I will choose another route.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-7371580803889878283?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/7371580803889878283/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/04/gamers-and-racists-have-arrived-case.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/7371580803889878283'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/7371580803889878283'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/04/gamers-and-racists-have-arrived-case.html' title='The Gamers and Racists Have Arrived: A Case Study in Psychological Torture'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-8521451332819169191</id><published>2011-04-19T05:03:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-04-19T05:03:40.294-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='asperger&apos;s'/><title type='text'>Scattered Thoughts on Asperger's Syndrome</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="content"&gt;          &lt;div class="comment-text" dir="ltr"&gt;           &lt;div class="content"&gt;          &lt;div class="comment-text" dir="ltr"&gt;I will always avoid social situations because they  inevitably result in highly negative consequences for me and others.  This is not an "excuse". It is learning from past experiences.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="comment-text" dir="ltr"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="comment-text" dir="ltr"&gt;Aspies﻿ who blame themselves for their persecution are brainwashed  fools. Period. They persecute us because they feel threatened. We don't  need to change. Society does.          &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main negative aspect of Asperger's Syndrome is﻿ that  society despises you﻿ and wants to you to die from the moment you're  born. (The Autism Speaks folks mince no words about it.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, why would any Aspie wish to assimilate into such a sick society  that wishes them dead? It's a cowardly fool's game, both morally and  logically bankrupt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;--- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Aspies don't have emotions...?

We need to go on the offensive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="content"&gt;          &lt;div class="comment-text" dir="ltr"&gt;           "Asperger's Syndrome And Romance"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...is a mistake. If you're an Aspie male﻿ and somehow find yourself  with opportunity to get into a relationship, don't do it. I doubt I'll  ever get such an opportunity, but if I do, I'll decline. It will end in  disaster 99 times out of a hundred.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only reason an Aspie male would be presented with such an opportunity is to be taken advantage of.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Asperger's Men and Relationships"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see, I've accepted involuntary celibacy long ago. I don't fret over it whatsoever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All I wish for is peace and quiet in my solitude. But people don't even give me that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In modern society, all single men are treated with suspicion and  contempt.﻿ Did you know they've banned single men from parks in Britain?  California is considering similar measures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can't even stay in my house without being harassed. Truly, anti-Asperger's sentiment and misandry are highly interconnected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an overwhelming amount of hatred in my heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Justified hatred.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an overwhelming amount of anger in my heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Justified anger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an overwhelming amount of bitterness in my heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Justified bitterness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These may be negative words, but they are not "bad" words. If I  can use these feelings to help fulfill my current goals in life, then  there's no problem, is there?

I quickly sought out and discovered several online "communities" relating to Asperger's, with Wrong Planet appearing to be the biggest. So, I joined and shared some of my life experiences with them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For simply describing some of my experiences and hardships in life as an Asperger's male specifically, I was quickly &lt;b&gt;banned&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I do regret much of my wording there and the title (and initial direction) I chose for the topic was atrocious. However, I was attempting to be coy about the root cause of my suffering as an outcast male and not mention feminism or misandry specifically. Feminism has such far-reaching tentacles in modern society that I knew not to cast a single word directly against it, or I'd certainly face persecution. But it wasn't enough. It needs to be repeated: I was banned (permantly IP banned at that!) for describing my problems in life as an Asperger's male. At an Asperger's website. Not a feminist website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note also that wrongplanet.net has a forum dedicated to "Women's Discussion" with this description: "&lt;span class="genmed"&gt;This is a place where women can feel safe to be  themselves. "Having a male gynecologist is like going to an auto  mechanic who doesn't own a car."" The clear implication being that men are dangerous and make women feel unsafe. Naturally, there is no such forum for men, despite the fact that the vast, vast majority of Aspies are male.&lt;/span&gt;) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wrongplanet.net is just one of many pieces of evidence showing how feminist agents have invaded virtually all sectors of modern society and diligently police thoughtcrime within those sectors. If nothing else, this debacle quickly squashed any sense of kinship I may have had with my fellow Aspies as a whole.

They have not yet learned how to think  like dedicated revolutionaries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first thing they need to do is jettison a LOT of baggage, and focus on attacking feminism in a hard, narrow, focused way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They should know enough to not voice opinions upon certain topics that are not &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;mission critical.  And they should know enough to not let the feminists draw them into  conversation upon such topics -- which the feminists continually try to  do!  This will only waste their energy and wear them out in the struggle  to defend their position, while the feminists gain a position of  strength.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And being &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;on the defensive, in any way, is precisely the thing to be avoided.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wholeheartedly agree with the basic sentiment here. There's absolutely no doubt that all of those who battle feminism would be on a much stronger footing if they dedicated their work exclusively to the task at hand and left their viewpoints on all other matters silent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, the reality is that all of us who oppose feminism have other interests as well. So, it isn't really realistic for MRAs to speak only of "men's rights". What would help the movement is people putting anti-feminism (I know Fidelbogen and others dislike this word - substitute as necessary) on the forefront of their agenda. This will likely happen in the future as more anti-male laws are passed and the more male life is demonized in society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On a somewhat random (yet related) note, it seems to me the number of drooling dimwits within the men's rights movement is great indeed, and increasing. (Yet, intellectual heavyweights are also present in disproportionate numbers to society at large. Perhaps this mirrors males as compared to females on the whole.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On many, many occasions MRAs and other anti-feminists have made statements which have personally disgusted me. Actually, I'll go further. A large portion of the people on my "side" of this war &lt;i&gt;personally sicken me&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But this is indeed a &lt;b style="color: red;"&gt;war&lt;/b&gt;. One cannot afford to be picky about one's allies in a war. What must be done, must be done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-1818256809836552112?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/1818256809836552112/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/unfortunate-nature-of-warfare.html#comment-form' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/1818256809836552112'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/1818256809836552112'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/unfortunate-nature-of-warfare.html' title='The Unfortunate Nature of Warfare'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-4368284507449381333</id><published>2011-03-14T20:50:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-03-19T06:38:45.251-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reality'/><title type='text'>An Important Link</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011/03/i_hope_these_people_arent_your.php"&gt;http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011/03/i_hope_these_people_arent_your.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This link may serve as an important reminder, for my personal usage, in the future. There's also a vague possibility that it may help in understanding the nature of my beliefs and inclinations after I've died. A counteraction cannot be comprehensively understood without evidence of the action it is countering. This stuff alone justifies my views of the value of the modern United States of America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The lives of certain people hold a value of far less than zero. To me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note: The author of that blog, PZ Myers, is female-supremacist scum, as evidenced &lt;a href="http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011/03/its_a_tough_look_to_pull_off.php"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. However, that has no correlation with the other entry, and that entry is important in my assessment of the value of American life, as I keep repeating. So it doesn't bother me. His little MRA hit-piece is interesting in its own right, though. It just goes to show how science and religion are virtually synonyms in today's world, as are scientist and preacher. Nearly all modern scientists are as rigid in their thinking as people who follow any particular religion. Blind faith is all that keeps either going.)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-4368284507449381333?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/4368284507449381333/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/important-link.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/4368284507449381333'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/4368284507449381333'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/important-link.html' title='An Important Link'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-171283796833539018</id><published>2011-03-07T14:41:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-07T19:11:15.675-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='misandry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='feminism'/><title type='text'>Daran of Feminist Critics: A Fifth Column</title><content type='html'>Have you encountered this shameful man? This "Daran" fellow? Have you encountered his shameful website? &lt;a href="http://www.feministcritics.org/blog"&gt;FeministCritics.org&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daran pretends to be a "feminist critic".&lt;span style="background-color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; So, he occasionally writes about things such as men and boys being killed and raped in wars in greater numbers than women, domestic violence against men, the prison industrial complex etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But what is Daran's real agenda? Well, if you look at the top-right portion of Feminist Critics, you'll see an article titled "&lt;b style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;What Feminism Got Right&lt;/b&gt;". But those of us who pay attention to what feminism's actions are rather than listen to its self-proclamations know that &lt;a href="http://counterfem.blogspot.com/2006/10/is-feminism-hate-movement.html"&gt;&lt;i&gt;feminism is a female supremacist hate movement&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Last time I checked, hate movements don't get &lt;i&gt;anything&lt;/i&gt; right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's more, Daran coddles and protects any feminist who comes to his site, no matter how radical they may be. He even allowed a radfem, who declared (without humor) that she wanted all males castrated, to make a &lt;a href="http://www.feministcritics.org/blog/2007/11/17/kiukus-post-about-separatism/"&gt;guest post to Feminist Critics&lt;/a&gt;. His pretense behind this is that he wants honest, prolonged debate with feminists, and that he desperately wishes to prove to them that not all "feminist critics" are evil misogynists. The logic behind this is appalling, as any intelligent person realizes, within a few days of observing female supremacists, no rational debate is possible with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daran even has the mandatory male feminist lapdog named "ballgame" patrolling his site. If any commenter at Feminist Critics even slightly upsets a feminist, they are scolded by Daran or ballgame and possibly banned. You see, all feminists are seen by Daran as wonderful, precious gems who must be retained at all costs. &lt;a href="http://toysoldier.wordpress.com/"&gt;Toy Soldier&lt;/a&gt;, a former Feminist Critics blogger, quit the blog because he felt his presence there might be "disruptive". Anyone who's read Toy Soldier's stuff knows he's about as mild-mannered and neutral as you can get, but he apparently just wasn't nice enough to the feminists for Daran.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The end result of all this idiocy is that &lt;i&gt;Feminist Critics differs very little from a typical feminist website&lt;/i&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of Daran's main goals is to paint all MRAs as brutish, unintelligent misogynists who should be avoided at all costs by using selected quotations from the cruder segment of the MRM and ignoring the rest. In this way, he's very similar to the execrable &lt;a href="http://www.manboobz.com/"&gt;Manboobz&lt;/a&gt;. And for this, I hold somewhat of a personal grudge against Daran, for I foolishly believed his lies about the MRM, and this delayed my discovery of enlightening material by years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a shameful man.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-171283796833539018?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/171283796833539018/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/daran-of-feminist-critics-fifth-column.html#comment-form' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/171283796833539018'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/171283796833539018'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/daran-of-feminist-critics-fifth-column.html' title='Daran of Feminist Critics: A Fifth Column'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-3053887768412988905</id><published>2011-03-04T18:00:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2011-03-04T18:11:15.619-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='men&apos;s rights'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='misandry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='feminism'/><title type='text'>Men Are Always The Enemy</title><content type='html'>So, I just made &lt;a href="http://www.the-spearhead.com/2011/03/04/hero-mexican-girl-who-fought-cartels-runs-for-the-border/#comment-76679"&gt;this little rant&lt;/a&gt; at The Spearhead. The only reason I did so was because a large portion of the commenters there have right-wing leanings, and I'm sick of certain people conflating Men's Rights issues with racialist, nationalist, or xenophobic ideas. In retrospect, the rant was ill-suited to that article's comments and is better suited to this blog:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Notice how anti-immigration ideologues always portray the invading hordes as all male. Never female.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Notice how anti-Muslim paranoids always paint every real or imagined  Muslim indiscretion with a male face. The women are blameless victims  being oppressed by men.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Notice how anti-Chinese paranoids always paint the scary Chinese  threat with a male face. The women are blameless victims being oppressed  by men.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Even the majority of MRAs with one or more of these viewpoints likely  demonize the groups with men in mind. I say we need to stop demonizing  our fellow men along national, racial, or ideological lines and unite  against the &lt;em&gt;real&lt;/em&gt; threat to all of our lives: feminism. (Not including the obviously hopeless men who have fallen under its sway, of course.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-3053887768412988905?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/3053887768412988905/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/why-are-men-always-enemy.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/3053887768412988905'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/3053887768412988905'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2011/03/why-are-men-always-enemy.html' title='Men Are Always The Enemy'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-5271145675136639372</id><published>2011-02-27T23:26:00.006-05:00</published><updated>2011-02-27T23:59:36.692-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='propaganda'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='media'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='misandry'/><title type='text'>The only male life deigned to be worthy in American society is a life in the American military</title><content type='html'>The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;only&lt;/span&gt; male life deigned to be worthy in American society is a life in the American military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;only&lt;/span&gt; male life deigned to be worthy in American society is a life in the American military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;only&lt;/span&gt; male life deigned to be worthy in American society is a life in the American military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;only&lt;/span&gt; male life deigned to be worthy in American society is a life in the American military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;only&lt;/span&gt; male life deigned to be worthy in American society is a life in the American military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apologies for the repetition there.

This is the central, underlying message being drilled into us by the media, and faithfully transmitted by the unthinking herds. Just try turning it to CNN or Fox News or MSNBC. Take note of how many times individual males are either denigrated and dehumanized or praised and validated. Notice that the overwhelming majority of the latter category are in the military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are an American man, the only way you may justify your own existence without widespread harassment is in violent service to the elite. You &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;must&lt;/span&gt; be willing to murder or be murdered to become fully human.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The American military has a holy, sacred, almost religious aura bestowed upon it by the government-run American media. It's almost like the promised utopia or heaven one sees in religions. "Men, in order to be granted full manhood and avoid oppression, you must be willing to violently oppress other men in our service.

Sure, those 10% of us born with exceptionally good looks or remarkable social skills may be higher in the caste. Massa may treat those higher in the caste better. But we are all still slaves in the end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We slaves have two choices: Continue to be slaves until our deaths, or break free at a strategic point and act as a monster. These are the only two choices left for us that I've observed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One or two monsters can be safely obliterated and then hidden away.

Comes in with a presupposition the reader is meant to agree with: Japanese-made RPGs are inferior, if Gamestop, IGN, and the rest of us brainwashers, er, "professional" game reviewers repeat this lie ad naseum it must be the truth. Supports propaganda with logical fallacies and blatant lies: Final Fantasy XIII is so totally bad, and as we all know, the FF series represents all JRPGs, therefore all JRPGs are bad. Concludes with more lies to set up future propaganda: I'll give just this one JRPG a pass, but the evil Japanese and their games are inferior to Westerners, so all future Japanese game must do more than Western games to receive a fair rating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, here's the question: Is Ashton Liu simply an indoctrinated sheep following IGN/Gamestop's lead, or is he invested in his anti-Japan hate campaign for personal reasons? Judging by his stubborn stance, I'd guess the latter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's an e-mail I sent to Mr. Liu:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"Despite my vocal support for western-made RPGs, Japanese-developed&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; games still hold a special place in my heart.

I'll translate: "Even though Japanese games are horrible and inferior for these reasons, I'll be soft on them." Skillful lying, Ashton, but still lies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's his cowardly refusal to reply:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(85, 0, 85);"&gt;Dear valued reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for your support.

So what did I do? Whenever possible, I joined in on the bullying of the most bullied kid. This is reprehensible behavior, of course,  and I cannot tell you how many times I've thought about it and ached with regret and disgust. I would never stoop to this level as an adult, obsessive hater of injustice that I am.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This "White and Nerdy" character apparently has no such qualms. I've already said what needs to be said about his putrid piece of hate speech on his blog. I'm copying and pasting it here just in case:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Fuck you, dude.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;I was really enjoying your blog until I read this post.

Initially you just get a blank white page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Thanks for the link. It was interesting, although I only made it through about two-thirds before I gave up.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;First off, if you're suggesting that I despise Western "criticism" of Japan because I'm a "moral isolationist", then you do not understand my viewpoints. I&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;feel that I have a reasonable understanding of modern Japanese (and Korean)  societies and my fondness for them derives from what I observe and experience, not their supposedly exotic or alien natures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the anti-Japan and anti-Asian propaganda pieces are not simply honest criticisms, but rather orchestrated attempts to demonize and dehumanize the people (mostly the males, as always). The Western populace is not only willing, but eager and thrilled to consume it. In the American landscape, the blacks are off-limits. The Jews are off-limits. Even the Hispanics are becoming off-limits. Where does the hate-filled tribalist turn to confirm his own self-worth and superiority? Why, East Asians and Arabs of course!&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;And why does it make me so angry? Because &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;this&lt;/span&gt; is why millions of people are murdered. Because &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;this&lt;/span&gt; is why people have their brains spill out and their bodies mutilated. Because &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;this&lt;/span&gt; is why those nuclear bombs were dropped. Dehumanization is the number one weapon in warfare. Number one.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;War is different today. The murdering cowards don't even have to see the people they slaughter. All they have to know is how evil the Japs are, how evil the Gooks are, how evil the Towelheads are, and they're more than happy to push that button way up in the air.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;And as long as America rules the world, there will be continued warfare.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Let me just be clear that I've not observed a bit of truth in the constant anti-Japan/anti-Asian barrage from the Western media. It's one-hundred percent lies to me.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;You know, injustice has always bothered me. To see decent, imperfect societies be demonized as sickening, evil hellholes, well, that bothers me. Especially considering who's pointing the finger.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;To relate this back to that article, it isn't that I object to criticism of other cultures because one cannot possibly understand them. I object to criticism which I recognise to be hollow propaganda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(By the way, Mukai Shutoku, the artist I respect most in this world, &lt;a href="http://z6.invisionfree.com/DISTORTIONAL_ADDICT/index.php?showtopic=580"&gt;wrote a song about "tsujigiri"&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-8952591506945925030?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/8952591506945925030/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/04/moral-isolationist-i-am-not.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/8952591506945925030'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/8952591506945925030'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/04/moral-isolationist-i-am-not.html' title='&quot;Moral Isolationist&quot; I Am Not'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-3820596112822073517</id><published>2010-04-14T10:47:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2010-04-14T10:54:13.960-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='propaganda'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='racism'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='anger'/><title type='text'>And It's THIS Shit That Makes Me Want To......

That Hollywood tripe "Lost In Translation" really sparked it up 10 years ago. Ever since, there's literally been a cauldron of people who devote their lives to propagating how evil, sexist, racist, conformist, backwards, perverted, and CRAAAAAAAAZZY the Japanese really are. There are hundreds of websites solely devoted to this. And of course CNN, The New York Times, etc. gleefully spread it as much as humanly possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you even imagine if people judged their view of America solely through the prism of its pornography?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This smug hypocrisy (without even a hint of self-awareness) makes me want to go off more than anything else in this world.

Didn't realize you were a Shuji Terayama fan either.

(Is this really the Internet?!) &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;The only comment you've made here that I find surprising is the one about Donald Richie.

Could you expand a bit on that point?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;You're right that I shouldn't have been so dismissive of Richie without reading any of his books. I also found both his commentary for Ozu's Early Summer and the interview with him on "Midnight Eye" to be enjoyable and insightful. However, his commentary for Criterion's "Crazed Fruit" is rather irritating. He seems to be obsessed with teaching the audience about Japanese society (which based on my observations I disagree with) while barely addressing the film.  It's admittedly a bit ridiculous to judge someone based on a single commentary, but I have similar feelings about Tony Rayns.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm also curious as to whether you might have seen the movie 'Canary' which apparently deals with the 'cult religion' phenomenon. Is it worth tracking down?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I own it but still have not gotten around to watching it. It looks promising, especially with Mukai involved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;And is there anything else you've read or seen that has shaped your own point of view about Japanese pop culture or the New Religions that abound there?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not that I can think of. I agree with you that Japanese "pop culture" is unashamedly hollow, but I don't see how this is any different than the "pop cultures" of any other country. Also, are you saying in this sentence that New Religions are intrinsically linked to Japanese "pop culture"? That's bizarre to me.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, don't be put off by my comments about 'Love Exposure'. It's also a arguably also a celebration of some of the wilder aspects of Japanese cinema like the Female Convict Scorpion movies (which I've just bought but haven't seen).

In addition to the self-loathing pandering to Westerners, I find cheap shots taken at the Aum cult to be particularly troubling after viewing the magnificent, life-changing A and A2 documentaries.&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, I cannot let your comment about my comment about 'evil traditional Confucianism' pass without comment. On a personal level, that arose from observing my (Japanese) wife being bullied by her (Japanese) boss and therefore some familiarity with sarariman no bunka which is informed, in my view, by a warped version of the Neo-Confucianism that also influenced the conduct of the Japanese military in WW2 as extensively chronicled by Brian Daizen Victoria in his book Zen War Stories.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frankly, East Asian women married (or otherwise attached) to Western men commonly have skewed, self-loathing mindsets. I also find that some of most hateful, racist/culturalist vitriol is spewed by people who will inevitably mention "by the way, my girlfriend is Chinese" etc. (This is not intended to be a personal insult, nor am I implying that you or your wife fit into these categories. It's just that your personal implications do not phase me.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you ever noticed how the vast majority of the rampant racial hatred toward East Asian peoples in the West is directed toward males? This is nothing new or different. &lt;a href="http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/num/31.html#15"&gt;It comes from the old "kill the men, abduct and rape the women" war strategy.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;I hadn't realized up until now that Victoria was a comic writer rather than a respected author and commentator operating from within the Soto Zen tradition. Also, it hadn't dawned on me that my wife's experiences of her own culture and experiencing first hand the sometimes crushing social and familial obligations that are part and parcel of being born Japanese were also to be disregarded. Thank you for helping to enlighten me in this regard.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;This online article has also helped to shape my thoughts:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!-- m --&gt;&lt;a style="font-style: italic;" class="postlink" href="http://www.friesian.com/divebomb.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;"&gt;http://www.friesian.com/divebomb.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;!-- m --&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Obviously though, it's one of those many online articles of dubious academic worth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's simply informed by extreme bias.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some honest questions: Would you be convinced by a Japanese author's attempt to "get into the American mindset" when it comes to the invasions of Iraq, Panama, the Philippines, or any of the countless other imperialistic, murderous, morally bankrupt American invasions of the past 150+ years? Further, would you be open to reading a Japanese author's attempt to demonstrate how flawed and inferior American/Western culture is?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.vdare.com/misc/matloff/china.htm"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is an article you might enjoy on Confucianism (in all seriousness).&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Then there's Donald Richie's introduction to the Criterion edition of Harakiri to consider in which he points out that Masaki Kobayashi traces the origins of the Japanese militaristic perspective back to the beginnings of the Tokugawa Shogunate in this movie, a Shogunate that was undoubtedly operating under the influence of a perverted Confucian ethos. But then Richie has only been living in the country since 1947 and that is hardly long enough for a gaijin to gain any insight into the Japanese mind and heart.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donald Richie has always been an Orientalist panderer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;In closing, I should just add that I myself have lived in Japan and travelled within the country extensively, am a huge fan of Japanese culture (especially the literature and poetry of the Heian period), and have taught Japanese and Chinese Philosophy for about 20 years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have black friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Of course, all of this experience and extensive study has now been disqualified by your post which has flagged up an obviously ingrained Orientalism and in turn nullified my vain attempt to draw this Forum's attention to a possibly overlooked classic of modern Japanese cinema. And there is also obviously no ongoing connection whatsoever between the influence that forms of Confucianism have historically exerted in prior Japanese history and anything that could possibly be happening with modern Japanese youth. I shall therefore now withdraw from this thread and hand it over to others who - like yourself - are obviously much better positioned to write about such matters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no way to address such self-congratulatory invective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead, I will note that I find nothing wrong with criticizing or despising one's own society or culture. After all, one of my favorite filmmakers is Shuji Terayama and my favorite songwriter is Mukai Shutoku. (And those Aum Shinrikyo documentaries I mentioned earlier paint the bleakest picture of Japanese society I've ever seen.) However, there is something so cowardly and repulsive about exploiting one's own culture in order to pander to or herald The West that I cannot bear the slightest stain of it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-4844837520933906411?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/4844837520933906411/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/02/to-murasaki53.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/4844837520933906411'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/4844837520933906411'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/02/to-murasaki53.html' title='To Murasaki53'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-8295531592299727898</id><published>2010-02-24T08:10:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2010-02-24T08:55:45.554-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abuse'/><title type='text'>The Hopeless and Helpless</title><content type='html'>I just posted this in a comment at &lt;a href="http://toysoldier.wordpress.com/"&gt;ToySoldiers&lt;/a&gt;, and I'm re-posting it here unedited for archival purposes and in case something goes wrong there.

Certain types of fictional (or occasionally real) characters in video games, TV shows, or movies trigger immediate memories. Just the sight, sound, or mention of a gun is enough to make my forehead throb. Worst of all, the simple act of looking in the mirror, and seeing the disgusting horns coming out of my forehead and the blackness around my eyes will forever be a reminder.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Severe childhood abuse + being born with a mental defect + being born male in this society is a brutal, fatal combination.

Prior to that, of course, you have the nationalism of WW2. So - without giving too much away for people who haven't seen this film - the profoundly humanistic tone of the actual text of 1 Corinthians 13 and the way in which the movie offers an alternative to the failed Japanese Dream via its recognition and acceptance of dysfunctionality really got to me. I could put this less intellectually and much more directly but in doing so it would give the reader too much of an indication of how this film is going to end. Lastly, my understanding of Japanese society is that it is partly about the impossible task trying to be the perfect son, the perfect father, the perfect daughter, the perfect member of society etc. so I loved the anti-perfectionistic, anti-Confucian and anti-utopian thrust of the film.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Having re-read this post, it sounds to me that I have written something that just comes across like a badly composed Film Studies essay.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Not really, it just seems to be the same regurgitated "look how bad those Orientals' inferior culture really is!" propaganda circulated for the past 100 years or so. It could've easily come directly from a "professional" film review. (Although the attempt to link modern Japanese "pop culture" to the propaganda staple of "evil traditional Confucianism" is pretty comical.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Nonetheless, thanks for the review, as if it's remotely accurate I'll know to forever avoid this film.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-5551960231413852403?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/5551960231413852403/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/02/deconstruction-of-typical-buffoon.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/5551960231413852403'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/5551960231413852403'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/02/deconstruction-of-typical-buffoon.html' title='Deconstruction of a typical anti-Japanese Internet screed'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-6959910147747357123</id><published>2010-02-20T07:21:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2010-02-25T00:16:31.525-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour'/><title type='text'>Review</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;deleted for now&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-6959910147747357123?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/6959910147747357123/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/02/review.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/6959910147747357123'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/6959910147747357123'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2010/02/review.html' title='Review'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-8146297993778177287</id><published>2010-02-20T03:26:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2010-02-25T02:09:14.335-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video games'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='racism'/><title type='text'>A random comment on video games that I enjoyed</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.brainygamer.com/the_brainy_gamer/2009/08/devil-survivor.html"&gt;Here's a random comment on some random blog that resonated with me.&lt;/a&gt; So, I'm archiving it here.

They've pioneered new and interesting ways of tackling multiplayer (DQ9, Demon's Souls), new leveling systems (The World Ends With You, every Final Fantasy except 4), new ways of structuring the game (TWEWY, Persona 3), etc. We've also seen a diversity of settings and themes that is on par compared to other genres: from traditional fantasy fare to space operas, to demonic overlords, to highschoolers with mysterious powers. If we're honest, fantasy tropes and teen protagonists are no more or less overplayed than gruff space marines and anti-heroes. Final Fantasy 7 and Half-Life came out a year apart.

It's just a smokescreen. If, say, China or Korea or Malaysia or Singapore were as financially viable and exporting media in the same way Japan currently is, they would face the same bullshit. This is &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;all&lt;/span&gt; about race and racism only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wouldn't be surprised, if Atlus USA someday becomes viable enough to start making their own games, they go straight to the imperialist American propaganda "murder as many gooks/Japs/chinks/sand niggers as you can within the time limit" genre, like most other Western companies. I'm not being sarcastic or exaggerating here; it's a serious possibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing's for sure: I'll never buy an Atlus USA product again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note: There's a very small possibility this idea may have come from Kazuma Kaneko or Atlus Japan themselves. If so, nothing in my post fundamentally changes. Greedy traitors and racists aren't far apart in my eyes.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Edit, 4 days later: I sent an e-mail to Atlus at the same time I wrote this post detailing my concerns. They have failed to reply. Cowardly but not unexpected. I see they had time to create the official website, though. And now the game is just magically &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;filled&lt;/span&gt; with Americans! These people are the new pioneers of racial dehumanization.

No songs on this album are allowed to shine in their studio versions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6/22/99: Atrocious sound quality. The drums can barely be heard. Also has a certain overall sloppiness found in many early Number Girl performances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8/21/99: Very similar to 6/22, maybe even less clear, performance is still sloppy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9/27/99: One of the best. Tabuchi's guitar work is sublime here. However, Mukai's vocals are some of his worst; he sounds as if he's stumbling along rather drunkenly (which I'm guessing he was). Really mars the performance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10/1/99: This one is probably the best overall. Mukai's best vocals on Sakura no Dance. All instruments very clear with nice sound quality. The major problem is that Tabuchi screws up &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;twice&lt;/span&gt; near the beginning, at pivotal points. She sort of has the lead in this song, so it really throws the rest of the performance somewhat off-kilter. Mukai's "Fuck you!" at the end is also rather unnecessary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6/24/01: An experimental "dub" version, similar to Destruction Baby. It's alright I guess, but doesn't compare favorably to the original.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7/20/02: The difference in Mukai's voice is almost comically apparent at this late stage. I actually think it works quite well with Sakura no Dance, though, and this performance is quite solid. However, the sound quality is shockingly awful &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;again&lt;/span&gt;. Tabuchi's guitar is totally smothered in the background.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sakura no Dance remains one of my NG favorites, but I just can't listen to it as much others because of the lack of a perfect rendition.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-5038218586556300506?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/5038218586556300506/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2009/12/tragedy-of-sakura-no-dance.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/5038218586556300506'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/5038218586556300506'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2009/12/tragedy-of-sakura-no-dance.html' title='The Tragedy of Sakura no Dance'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-5007014240942621110</id><published>2009-12-07T14:14:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-12-07T14:17:19.353-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hip Hop Harry</title><content type='html'>"Cool, socks!" -Jay Jay&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-5007014240942621110?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/5007014240942621110/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2009/12/hip-hop-harry.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/5007014240942621110'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/5007014240942621110'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2009/12/hip-hop-harry.html' title='Hip Hop Harry'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-9039862733387010964</id><published>2009-11-24T02:33:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-24T02:40:01.677-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='random observation'/><title type='text'>The Funny Thing About Us Crazies</title><content type='html'>An interesting thing I've noticed about crazies is that very few of us seem to have normal intelligence levels.

However, in terms of western players without that kind of connection to Tokyo, I don't think the setting ever served to alienate a potential player. The core SMT games were never... oppressive? overbearing? about their Japaneseness in the same way that, say, Kuzunoha Raidou or Persona 3 and 4 are. So... setting the games outside of Japan isn't going to give any international players the sense of connectedness that Tokyo gives to Japanese players (since, naturally, very few people feel connected to Antarctica as a place) and it's not going to serve to remove a block or alienation factor for anyone else. But her point was that the main cast of the game isn't Japanese this time around, either, so it's more than just the setting -- you're dealing with an international crew who are all going to the same place: Antarctica. What's more, Antarctica is foreign to everyone. There's a mystery to it, right? Even though we as a civilization have explored it pretty thoroughly at this point, it's so far removed from the world that we exist in even though it's on the same planet. So I think the idea is that these people of different nationalities all go there, and they're all on equal footing because it's equally mysterious to each of them, and rather than feeling connected to the place, we can feel more connected to their experiences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hey you miserable, close-minded American fuckwit, think about this for a moment:&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Hollywood films dominate box offices all around the entire world. Non-American films are struggling everywhere. Yet, do you think Hollywood is trying to appeal to an international audience? No, in fact, they go out of their way to mock and dehumanize people from other cultures and nations. Why don't you have a problem with that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is it that these disgusting worms can never see beyond their own bloated hypocrisy?&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8241371589676997228-4583938279854708703?l=notevenhuman.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/feeds/4583938279854708703/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2009/10/shin-megami-tensei-strange-journey.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/4583938279854708703'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8241371589676997228/posts/default/4583938279854708703'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://notevenhuman.blogspot.com/2009/10/shin-megami-tensei-strange-journey.html' title='Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey'/><author><name>forweg</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00518000549732942666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d6-AJvAA1Nc/TxamhCdLcsI/AAAAAAAAACI/xG5OUOBh2Bo/s1600/176840_603519.jpg%253Ft%253D1326883525'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241371589676997228.post-7505483393347713118</id><published>2009-10-05T23:39:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-05T23:45:20.879-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='football'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='epl'/><title type='text'>Aston Villa 1 Manchester City 1, October 5th, 2009</title><content type='html'>What a joke this game was.

And now that I recognize (most of) the reason &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;why, &lt;/span&gt;this is only grounds to demonize and humiliate me even further. Typical humanity.

They have some real magic about them this year, don't they?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Burnley were undeniably weak in the first half (including some flashes of Andre Bikey's bad side) and were lucky to go in level. They started the second half the same way, but the introductions of Chris Eagles and David Nugent changed the entire flow of the match. Nugent's two goals speak for themselves, but Eagles also really looked a class above the other players on the pitch. His paciness down the right side created Nugent's breakthrough goal. Both men should be starting at White Hart Lane next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turf Moor is turning into a genuine fortress.

Ever noticed how every time Chelsea have desperately needed a goal this season, the referees give them a ludicrous amount of stoppage time? At the end of the Hull match, the first half of Stoke match, and the second half of the Stoke match too. I counted two significant stoppages in the first half. That calls for eight minutes?! Likewise, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;one&lt;/span&gt; significant stoppage in the second half translates to five minutes?

So what is the point in continuing to exist in this basement, breathing the foul air? I don't know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I change my mind every day. The key question is: What will happen when I am eventually able to leave the basement? It's a scary thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The minuscule optimist in me says that there's a tiny glimmer of hope that I might be able to live happily some day.

I've taken up and internalized it to that degree. I am truly stupid for harming myself in this way, but there's no way to escape at this point. I'm in too deep. Now, I truly think it unlikely that another person on this planet has taken up an extremist level of Asiaphilia in the same way that I have. What could lead me to such a "bizarre" and unique status?:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) The tendency of those with Asperger's to attach themselves to pet obsessions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) My lack of a "real life".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) I have always since I can remember felt empathy for those who are given unjust treatment, demonized, and have no voice. Highly connected to 1 and 2.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being deemed a "race traitor" is one of the most harmful badges one can carry in this society, and indeed may invite abuse if revealed publicly. But as I am already considered a bottom-rung status male, I don't feel I have much to lose in this regard. I already invite abuse for that fact alone. However, simply being exposed to the continuous, unavoidable flow of anti-Asian lies and propaganda on a daily basis harms me mentally at least as much as the lawnmower outside (not explaining what I mean by this for now).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, this brings up another strange and exceptionally unhealthy aspect of my condition. Even though I fully understand that these cowardly propagandists and ignorant slugs are inferior, their words still affect me. Disgusting. And the anger festers on and on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Edit 1/13/12: Hi, Manboobz crew! Trying to dig up dirt on me?

Yeah, yeah, it's not exactly an original thought. But it's true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems that the vast majority of humans are primarily abusers, exploiters, and torturers. From my observations, this is indeed what they derive the most enjoyment out of in life. Abusing, exploiting, and torturing. Just watch and you'll see that it's everywhere. Any time a person is put in a position to be abused, they &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;shall&lt;/span&gt; be abused.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look at the glowing smiles when that homeless bum is beaten. Look at the ecstatic grins on the playground when the poor, fat kid is shoved to the ground. Notice the waves of malicious delight when the convicted murderer is murdered. Observe the wild celebrations when those bad Orientals and Arabs get bombs dropped on them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People feel no greater joy than when the helpless and powerless suffer.

We'll see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've needed one of these things for a long while, but never bothered to look into blogging in my over six years of internet misery. I always thought it was too complicated or something, when it's not. Dumbass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand that I literally cannot communicate without either rambling or ranting, which should already be evident in this post. I also tend to use "I" a lot and obsessively talk about myself. I believe both of these are aspects of Asperger's Syndrome, but oh wait, that's just an "excuse" for my horrible personality, and the hand-flapping is just a wild coincidence.
