			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_410" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 228px"><a href="http://odingraphics.deviantart.com/art/Steampunk-Joker-Linework-97711984"><img class="size-medium wp-image-410" title="Steampunk_Joker_Linework_by_odingraphics2" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Steampunk_Joker_Linework_by_odingraphics2-218x300.jpg" alt="Steampunk Joker by OdinGraphics" width="218" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Steampunk Joker by OdinGraphics http://odingraphics.deviantart.com</p></div>
<p>From the berzerker to Hannibal Lecter, the White devil is the man the world loves to hate.  He is the rapacious, exploitive capitalist whose thirst for blood is only matched by his thirst for gold.  He pursues his interests with a madness that we others would love to view as uniquely dark and especially evil even though history and current events make it clear that they are not.</p>
<p>Behind the Devil image is a man; a man with the same basic needs as any other, simply adapted to get those needs met in a rather unforgiving European climate.</p>
<p>In the past 60 years, it has become rather socially and economically inconvenient to be a White devil.  The image ceased to be economically convenient because of shifts in politics, so it ceased to be socially convenient as well.  However, the baby was thrown out with the bathwater as soon as the effort to no longer be viewed (on the surface anyhow) as the scourge of mankind, crossed the line into not wanting to be viewed as &#8220;oppressors&#8221; of their women.  Ultimately, this ended up with most of them in the situation of being socially and politically restricted from reasonable ethnic/cultural autonomy, and will if left unchecked, lead to restriction of national autonomy.</p>
<p>So it pleased me very much that in the wake of Anders Brevik&#8217;s shooting and bombing spree, the academic community in Norway might actually be doing something real to prevent a similar tragedy.  Even better, the person they chose to represent the men&#8217;s rights and cultural recovery side in <a href="http://www.bt.no/nyheter/lokalt/Politiet-passet-p-2600056.html" target="_blank">a recent panel</a> wasn&#8217;t a crazy skinhead.  It was Elvind Berge.</p>
<p>Nontheless, during the debate, he was compared to Hitler and told that he needs to see a psychologist.  Police were lined up outside the building, and crowds of people showed up to gawk at the supposed terrorist sympathizer.  The other panelists were applauded for making unfair and outright false statements about Mr. Berge, and yet somehow he gets cast as the Nazi.</p>
<p>Now, he is being ostracized for his views in a way that no Arab supporter of terrorists who actually sends money to terrorist cover organizations and participates in very public anti Israel protests has ever been, to my knowledge, in any western country, even Israel.  He has been kicked out of his apartment by the landlord and refused by others.  Yet somehow he is cast as the Nazi.</p>
<p>These blatant sexists and racists who believe that women and people of color are incapable of getting employment and education on an equal basis in a society and nation with both laws and social conditions enforcing their equality, and need quotas&#8230;</p>
<p>These puritanical sexual mafiosas who strip people of their legal right to sex between consenting adults on whatever terms they choose so long as they do not cause unreasonable harm&#8230;</p>
<p>These goose stepping mobs of torch wielding de facto illiterates who ignore 90% of human history&#8230;</p>
<p>These people who <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-13907693" target="_blank">export their social disease to Mother Africa</a> with the same presumed moral supremacist fervor with which they used to colonize and exploit her, only as a cover for a more (effective but still exploitive) Roman style of colonization&#8230;</p>
<p>These White devils have decided that Elvind Berge is the devil despite the fact that he is neither sexist nor racist enough to view women or people of color as the default victims of anything European or male by default of it being European or male.  It is because he does not view himself as a devil who must repent by committing genetic suicide, the real devils want to point the finger at him and not themselves.</p>
<p>Irony.</p>
<p>Anders Brevik is indeed a monster, but he is a monster that feminism and the multicult made.  If the society he grew up in had invested in him, then he may have felt more invested in that society, and rather than going on a killing spree against it, he&#8217;d have directed that energy towards enemies on a battle field.</p>
<p>Many African American men in the U.S. deprived of constructive ways to express their manhood and channel their aggressive energies turn to drugs, gangs, and misdirected violence.  Why should this be different for Europeans?  Africans in Africa who find their ethnicities/cultures under attack react with violence.  Why should this be different for Europeans?</p>
<p>Is a man a devil for simply expressing what is a very natural way to feel about having one&#8217;s manhood stomped down by their government?</p>
<p>I have to wonder about all the supposed men who do not see anything wrong with gender and ethnic quotas, prostitution being illegal (meaning that consensual sex is regulated), and their country putting more money into absorbing hostile immigrants than into supporting citizens.  Is it that if you are not a sucker, you are a devil?</p>
<p>Fine then.  Let&#8217;s bring back the White devil.</p>
<p>Time has shown that the Black man keeping certain features of his more monstrous stereotypes has been good for him.  As sweet and kind as a Brother may be, we all know and like the fact that if you push him too far, he is going to push back.</p>
<p>Eastern European men also have that something about them.  So it is not that White men have all lost that.  It&#8217;s just that regionally, western Europeans have allowed themselves to be politically overrun by ideologues posing as idealists.  They may not be able to turn things around politically overnight, but they can decide that the label of White devil isn&#8217;t a bad thing.</p>
<p>One guy coming out gets used as an example, but millions?  They can&#8217;t evict you all from all of your apartments.  All of your wives aren&#8217;t going to divorce all of you.  In fact, they will love you more for being a man than they loved you for pretending to be Mr. Sensitive.</p>
<p>Wear your horns with pride.  Everyone else views you as the Great Satan no matter what you do anyway.  Might as well do what you want.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t know if my comment will still be there once it&#8217;s read by the admins there, but here&#8217;s my reply to <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/crime/sacramento-video-attack-098361?fb_comment_id=fbc_10150346022781849_19406945_10150347291861849#f2f3568cb9250e" target="_blank">The Smoking Gun: Cops Probe Viral Video Of Attacks On Woman</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Nobody else wants to say it so I&#8217;m saying it.  I know many people who grew up poor, and many who were abused at home and went through all manner of hell who would still never do such a thing.  It is a mental defect that makes people do things like that, and it is a societal defect that allows such people to walk the streets.  Because it has for so long been about race, you have some White people running around assaulting people because they&#8217;ve been raised to feel the world owes them for being born White, and Black people who have been raised to feel the world owes them something because, what, over 100 years ago, some of their ancestors were slaves (as if there were never in history any European slaves, forget the word &#8220;slave&#8221; came from &#8220;slav&#8221;). </p>
<p>That in and of itself is bad, but now we have feminism instead of egalitarianism, that makes women think the world owes them something for having female genitalia.  It blinds them to the realities of life.  Well, they wanted equality and now they have it.  The stupider men who are easier to brainwash now view women the same as weak men, and since they don&#8217;t feel protective towards women, they treat women the same as weak men.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t want guys beating you up like they would a vulnerable dude wandering aimlessly, then you need to stop teaching your sons and male peers that it&#8217;s okay to punch us in the face for getting up in their face like they would a guy who did the same thing.  If it was a White MAN getting up in a Black man&#8217;s face, and the Black guy punched him, nobody would make a peep about it.</p>
<p>Well, this Black man is a product of your feminist society.  You White people who spread this social disease that gender is only a social construct gave him permission to beat her down like a dude.  So this is actually a success story to you people.</p>
<p>You (White women) wanted equality, well here it is.  I don&#8217;t approve of that cretin&#8217;s behavior, but then I&#8217;m an egalitarian, not a feminist.  Enjoy the monsters you made.</p></blockquote>
<p>I wonder if they&#8217;ll let it stay.  They should because well, this is what a feminist looks like: thugs who think it&#8217;s okay to punch a woman in the face.  Sure, they&#8217;re wrong, but they were very likely raised without a father in the home, by a &#8220;strong&#8221; mother who insisted they treat women like equals.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/coonlovenecklace.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-372" title="Raccoon Baculum Love Necklace" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/coonlovenecklace-203x300.jpg" alt="Raccoon Baculum Love Necklace" width="203" height="300" /></a>In an earlier post I&#8217;m too lazy to dig for at the moment, I suggested the <a href="http://soulmindbody.net/esu/2010/09/esu/" target="_blank">Papa Legba </a>eleke patterns as good symbols of the men&#8217;s rights movement that both men and supportive women could wear.  Now, I&#8217;m going to suggest one specifically for the women: raccoon bacula, also called <em>oosik</em>.  The term <em>oosik </em>comes from an Inuit dialect, and may refer to any type of bacula, but unless it&#8217;s otherwise specified, in normal conversation, when folks say someone gave someone an oosik, they mean a raccoon baculum.</p>
<p>A baculum, to put it bluntly, is a penis bone.  Most mammals have them, though humans do not.  Raccoon bacula are special and symbolic of faithful and supportive women though.  There is an old custom in North America of young men giving these as gifts to women they loved.  It is both a symbolic gift and a magical charm, and accepting it meant that the woman would reserve herself for the one who gave it to her.</p>
<p><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/coonlovecartoon.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-375 alignright" title="Raccoon Love" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/coonlovecartoon-241x300.jpg" alt="Raccoon Love" width="241" height="300" /></a>Female raccoons are monogamous.  After they&#8217;ve had sex with a male, they will not only repel others&#8217; advances, but will go psycho if another even gets close to them or their nest.</p>
<p>Raccoon bacula are, aside of a nice love gift, a reputedly powerful good luck charm.  Much like the mano figa, it seems to gain more power from being given as a gift though.  So you can buy them for yourself, and that&#8217;s cool, but one you get from another is even stronger.  People give them to each other not only because of romantic love, but family love and friendship as well.  When given by a friend or colleague, it is a protection charm.  So if you know someone going into combat or who works a dangerous job, this is an excellent birthday or going away present.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re making a necklace of one, the safest bet not to break it is to avoid drilling it unless you are very adept at bone carving.  They are very strong, but can crack or split from mishandling.  If you carve runes or symbols into it, do so with a light hand.</p>
<p>You can buy bacula and just about everything else critter, fur, and bone related from <a href="http://www.bridgerfur.com/" target="_blank">Bridger Fur Company</a>.  It&#8217;s best to call them because their online catalogue is still incomplete.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last night, I had a dream that pretty much encapsulated my true feelings about the eurocentric brand of Christianity.</p>
<p>It began like most of my family road trip dreams do.  My parents, brothers and I are going along a country road.  Dad is driving, and Mom is smiling, and my younger brothers and I are still kids.  The youngest and southern style adopted brother has been in these dreams since a few years ago when I got to meet him in person and initiated him to &#8220;the kids&#8221; by startling.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s usually about 5 years old in my dreams, and my biological brother is usually around 10 even though this isn&#8217;t chronologically accurate.</p>
<p>In any case, we&#8217;re driving along and then at some point, we get a flat tire.  This is pretty normal for my dreams too.  Usually we get some help from a local mechanic or villagers or somehow find ourselves in southern Italy or West Africa.  So it didn&#8217;t bother me much when a family came out to help us.  They invited us into their home, and fed us, and we sat around quietly, waiting while Dad and the father of this family supposedly fixed the flat tire.</p>
<p>At some point, Mom got up to go outside and see what was going on.  Then later, Dad came back indoors for a break, but Mom and the host family&#8217;s dad didn&#8217;t come in behind him.  When he turned around, they were both gone, and he started to worry.  Then us kids started to worry.  At that moment, when I looked around, my brothers and I were adults, and went out with Dad to find Mom.</p>
<p>For some reason, when we got to the back yard, it turned out to be a gigantic amusement park.  This place is familiar to my dreams as well.  We split up to go look for her.  I asked many people if they had seen my mother.  Somewhere along the way, I noticed a pattern.  When I asked White people where she was, they looked at me as if they didn&#8217;t understand what I was saying.  When I asked Black people where she was, they were as helpful as they could be.  They hadn&#8217;t seen her, but they would keep their eyes open.  After I noticed this, I looked around for the whitest person I could find, to experiment.  I asked a blonde, pale, and for some reason, rather busty chick behind the counter at the gift shop if she had seen my mother.  In a friendly, southern accent, she answered that she hadn&#8217;t seen her, but that she would help me look for her.  So she hung a &#8220;closed&#8221; sign on the register, came from behind the counter, and walked with me.</p>
<p>At some point, I looked at her butt for some reason, and stitched on the back pockets of her jeans were pentacles.  She apparently noticed my distraction, and grabbed my arm in a strong, grandmother-like way and said, &#8220;Hurry up!  No tellin&#8217; what&#8217;s hap&#8217;nin to yer Mama!&#8221;</p>
<p>Then somehow, we ended up out of the amusement park and back around to the front of the house.  I&#8217;m not sure what inspired us to do it, but we raised our hands up, and then as we brought them down, the front wall of the house collapsed.  The room where Mom and the father of the host family was then exposed.  My Mom was tied to a chair with duct tape over her mouth, and the father was yelling and pointing a gun at her.  When the wall came down, he pointed the gun at us.  At that point, I realized I was holding hands with the blonde woman, and we were not afraid.</p>
<p>Then my Dad and brothers came to join us.  The host father was yelling incoherent things, and the room was full of crosses and Jesus statues and all manner of restraints and torture implements.  For some reason, he tore the tape off of my Mom&#8217;s mouth, and she screamed at us to just do as he says or he&#8217;ll kill us.  I&#8217;m not sure why, but the blonde girl began laughing and cursing out the host father.  My Dad and brothers were stunned by this, but I wasn&#8217;t, and I began laughing.</p>
<p>I woke up laughing, but then kind of sad.  I understood what the dream meant.</p>
<p>Though I have no intention of attempting to save my family from Christianity, since it&#8217;s not Christianity that is exactly the problem, it still makes me sad that they believe in the sick sorry excuse for a god that speaks nonsense and needs to threaten people with torture.  The very real threat of losing touch with Nature and by extension with God, is in becoming so fatally stupid that one destroys their lives, the lives of their children, and the world.</p>
<p>Another of the important things I&#8217;ve learned over the past few years is the extent to which people will ignore real suffering and sickness in the here and now, for the sake of some &#8220;greater good&#8221; or &#8220;hereafter&#8221;.   Feminism and its close companion, tacit dysgenicism are two excellent examples of ideologies that cause people real and deep suffering in their everyday lives, but promise that it is all for a good cause and so if one is suffering, it&#8217;s because they&#8217;re not adhering to the ideology hard enough.  It just cannot be, in their minds, that the ideology is inhumane and should be abandonned.</p>
<p>A question arose in the conversations around the manosphere as to why social conservatives and the religious who make up the vast majority of them, end up serving the will of the feminists even though they are supposedly opponents.  It is because, &#8220;A problem cannot be solved by the same consciousness that created it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Anglo and some other flavors of northwestern European descended HBD believers, pay attention.  You&#8217;re about to get a diagram of one of your genetic scratches. The American and western European brand of secularism was invented by people whose mentality and therefore spirituality was too long term for their own good.  They were mostly Christians who believed in suffering on Earth for a reward in heaven.  This tendency did not come originally from Christianity as Jesus never told anyone, &#8220;Your suffering on Earth is fine since you&#8217;ll be rewarded in heaven,&#8221; when they came to him asking to be healed.  If the reports are true, he healed them then and there in physical, real world ways.</p>
<p>This very same tendency allowed feminism and dysgenicism to become part and parcel with secularism.  You suffer lonliness, childlessness until unsafe ages for first-births, a chaotic minefield and playground for sociopaths for a dating scene, and shallowness that makes intimacy either impossible, or an inhumanly frightening risk here and now for a &#8220;greater good&#8221;.  Your &#8220;hereafter&#8221; is supposedly a world without gender or racial discrimination.</p>
<p>Forget that on the other end of the spectrum from the dark side of discrimination is the light side of recognition.  Humans are evolved to feel more automatic empathic attachment to people who look similar to them, and at the same time, to be able to recognize the criminals among their own.  They have trouble recognizing the criminality or bad intentions of people who look substantially dissimilar to themselves, and if they ignore that fact, they can expose themselves to considerable danger.  Not to mention, an outsider can do damage either purposefully or inadvertently by breaking important cultural norms, simply because they are an outsider.  People don&#8217;t feel the same social obligation to those of different cultures or different classes within cultures.  No amount of rainbow politics is going to change these facts of human nature.</p>
<p>The genders should be treated differently because they have different biological capabilities and roles.  Gender is not a social construct.  No amount of feminist politics is going to change that fact of human nature either.</p>
<p>So the solution is to address people&#8217;s differences, and in a diverse nation, compensate for possible weaknesses in reasonable nationalism that may arise from the facts of human nature.  Many mistakes have been made due to the denial of differences, that are causing realtime suffering here and now.  The &#8220;greater good&#8221; and magical &#8220;hereafter&#8221; has not materialized in more than superficial ways.</p>
<p>We have a basically Black President of the U.S. now&#8230;but note that he is male, and regardless of his parentage, has a family with a mother and a father.  He has also made very public comments to the effect that he is a protective father.  I have little doubt that he will demand to meet and likely investigate all of his daughters&#8217; potential suitors.</p>
<p>If that is &#8220;what a feminist looks like&#8221; then all men should be feminists&#8230;but that is not a feminist.  That is at most, a gender egalitarian.</p>
<p>His wife is also physically strong and sturdy, though she didn&#8217;t look in any way masculine until she reached the appropriate age for this.  Despite her stated ideology, even her foibles are typical of a very feminine minded woman.  She was an emotional near Black militant in her youth, and today wages a war on obesity, as if that is the root of the problem.  She waves the flag, but in real life, she married, had kids, likes to grow vegetables in her yard, and dresses like an older former cheerleader.</p>
<p>&#8230;not very feminist.</p>
<p>So the face folks of the United States are not doing a very good job of suffering in the here and now for the greater good.  It&#8217;s time for everybody to drop the facade.</p>
<p>&#8230;and it&#8217;s time for Black people who need a God who isn&#8217;t the equivalent of a redneck with a torture dungeon to wake up from their spiritual Stockholm syndrome.</p>
<p>Your legends spell out female hypergamy in the stories of Oshun and Obatala, Oshun and Shango, and Oshun and Ogun, in painful frankness.</p>
<p>Your real God doesn&#8217;t care if you believe in him or not so long as you believe in gravity and the existence of water and the like.  It is best for you because you&#8217;re a mortal human and he is Unfathomable and surpasses all, to get very intimate with the forces of nature, and if it helps you, give them names, learn their stories, and let yourself be overwhelmed with them so that you get the big picture drilled into your thick skulls.</p>
<p>Each ethnicities&#8217; gods developed along with the ethnicity itself.  Adopting some other ethnicity&#8217;s gods is fine if you are truly more inclined to their mentality.  If not however, their gods will be distant from you and you will be distant from them.  You will miss the point, lose touch with nature, including your own, and be dragged down with whatever dysfunction plagues your adopted ethnicity and faith.</p>
<p>Some ethnicities die out because of storms or bad weather, or from conquest&#8230;but some simply fail to thrive.  The &#8220;hereafter&#8221; is failing to thrive.  As a result, even some White people, even if they&#8217;re not reclaiming their old gods, are abandoning the sick idea of the bite sized deity that made mistakes when he created the universe, and needs you to pray &#8220;gimmie&#8221; to correct them.</p>
<p>This may be weird, but most people I&#8217;ve encountered of any ethnicity who are abandoning, have the potential to abandon, or have already abandoned or been raised without the hereafter and gimmie-god mentality, tend to look a bit similar in certain ways.  It&#8217;s something in the eyes.  That observation isn&#8217;t exactly scientific.  Maybe it&#8217;s a kind of bias that causes me to look for certain cues.  I don&#8217;t know.</p>
<p>What saddens me a bit is that few of these people I&#8217;ve come across are Black.  It&#8217;s like they can let go of everything except the gimmie-god.  They&#8217;ve placed a lot of stock in that, perhaps because of the persecution complex, combined with actual historical and day to day reminders of being devalued by others and each other.  To accept the fact that nobody is going to save them is too depressing for some.  To open their minds to the idea that intimacy with forces of nature will get them farther than presuming to be favored children of the imaginary gimme-god in improving their lives here and now and perhaps even their hereafter if our mystical ancestors were right in their speculations seems, to them, like witchcraft.</p>
<p>It is tempting to start recruiting&#8230;become an arm for some sort of Mami Wata missionary outreach.  However, I trust nature, and I trust the internet.  Once the idea of HBD is really out there, and a few more Black folks who can, get over its self pitying cheering squad to the real science of it all, positive things are going to happen.  I think one of the most positive will be more people reclaiming their real gods who bless people in real life when they do real things to better their situation that are based on reality.</p>
<p>On the lighter side of that, it sure would be nice to see more men in non bifurcated or at least more junk friendly garments&#8230;and more women carrying their babies in babyslings instead of daycare centers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some time ago, Cuz (the Catholic taxi driver turned accountant) offered to give me an apartment in an attempt to get back in.  I declined because though I could see being the mistress of a discreetly but honestly polygamous man, I&#8217;m not going to be the life support system of a failing monogamy.  I&#8217;m also not willing to share with a whore or to be the unwitting catalyst to a divorce scam.  If she wants to take his property, I&#8217;m not going to help her to do it.</p>
<p>She has already tried to get paperwork to the effect of his and his parents&#8217; property passing to herself exclusively rather than to her sons in the event of their and/or his death.  This is a woman who would take bread from the mouths of her children when she is already stuffed.  I wouldn&#8217;t put the neck of a man I cared for at all, under the hatchet of a harpy.</p>
<p>I am however, happy to keep in touch with him as, for some strange reason, I give him some &#8220;alpha cred&#8221; that keeps her putting out despite their physical incompatibility.  The smell of me is still all around them in a subconscious sense.  His parents and a couple of his trusted friends know we were seeing each other while they were separated, but they haven&#8217;t told her.  So they and he knows he can do better.  She&#8217;s hustling to try to keep her place.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, he has upped the ante.  At the moment, I&#8217;m working from the lobby I share with LE.  Whenever he&#8217;s in town, it&#8217;s his office.  When he&#8217;s not, so as not to suffocate from the fumes of Fimo and lacquer, the window has to stay open, and Wizard and I are shoo-ing cats constantly.  We need a studio.  Cuz thinks he&#8217;s going to come to the rescue.</p>
<p>He actually expects me to allow him to pay to rent a place on Massada St. (the alternative area of town) for our workshop/studio/store.  In his fantasies, this would bring us closer, and I wouldn&#8217;t be able to resist his charms.</p>
<p>Because I&#8217;m not a whore, such a gesture would endear him to me a little too much, and I wouldn&#8217;t be able to keep a professional distance and string him along.  It&#8217;s not so much that I&#8217;d feel obligated so much as taken care of.  Especially since leashing my inner bitch, I like being taken care of.  Yes, please do be concerned enough about my wellbeing to put your money where your mouth is.</p>
<p>&#8230;but not if it&#8217;s going to put you at risk of a thief.</p>
<p>This is a small country, and as big as Haifa might seem, it&#8217;s a kind of small town.  News travels fast.  We could do everything right and not shag each other, but if someone thinks we might be, the news is going to get back to her.</p>
<p>This is difficult for a couple of reasons.  First, because I care about him as a human being, and not just one part of him.  I would constantly worry about inadvertently causing harm to him and his children.  Second, because he is exactly my physical type, it will be really really hard for me not to flirt at all.  My mouth could be saying one thing, but my eyes another, and well&#8230;</p>
<p>So the whole thing is just best avoided.  I&#8217;ll just keep saying no until he gives up.</p>
<p>Wizard says I should just go on and let him pay, but I think it&#8217;s just because he hasn&#8217;t met Cuz yet.  One of Cuz&#8217;s arms is like one of Wiz&#8217;s legs.  If Cuz decides we&#8217;re going to do it, we&#8217;re going to do it.  I think Wiz is thinking &#8220;big and tall&#8221; in narrow-butt average Israeli terms.  Cuz is a freak of nature compared to most guys here.  In the dark, one would think he was Black like deep south break a bitch in half Black&#8230;like my ex husband.</p>
<p>So he&#8217;s a dangerous guy to tease, and I&#8217;m not doing it.  Maybe he&#8217;ll stop trying to get me an apartment and bring me some Saint Anthony statues instead.</p>
<p>In other news, my protege called to let me know he&#8217;s okay.  He&#8217;s 20 and in the army now. I&#8217;m glad he&#8217;s well, and hope that continues to be the case.  Things are happening, and Egypt seems to be headed for a civil war.  The instability could mean that certain things that were being looked after, won&#8217;t be.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re not sure how things are going to turn out, but the way things were wasn&#8217;t good for Egypt at all.  The poverty was way too widespread and way too deep.  The government figured they could keep control of things by jailing and torturing people en masse, but when people feel they have nothing to lose from fighting back, they fight back.</p>
<p>Facing death every day forces people into a martial state more than even meditating on death daily like a samurai.  When the government presses people beyond a reasonable tolerance, they think they are oppressing them, but what they&#8217;re really doing is training them to become revolutionaries.</p>
<p>Those who benefit from the system and conform are the untrained and ill equipped.  Those who ran afoul of the system and survived the consequences become stronger, and if they breed, pass this to their children.  How ever many generations it takes, sooner or later, it will break, and the stronger warriors will win.</p>
<p>People who lived in tombs or learned to live without much if any infrastructure between the desert rocks aren&#8217;t afraid to lose their pension.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A sad fact of human nature that I came to understand in elementary school is that there are two kinds of people: thinkers and non thinkers.</p>
<p>Thinkers may run the range as far as levels of social dependence.  Some may understand a situation, but lack the courage to actively shape it.  They will conform to the status quo to some degree due to personal fears of ostracism, or &#8220;for the common good&#8221;.  They are however, conscious of what is going on.</p>
<p>Some are very independent thinkers, and of those, some will conform in order to gain status/power within the system.  Some will separate themselves from it as much as possible.  Some actively try to maintain, shape, or change the system, if they feel something is wrong with it.  Some succeed.</p>
<p>Non thinkers, on the other hand, want and may even need others to think for them.  It&#8217;s not that they&#8217;re intellectually lazy.  They are intellectually uncurious.</p>
<p>I want you to look at something:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BcvSNg0HZwk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BcvSNg0HZwk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p>Now ask yourself something.  If most people are willing to kill another person just because a person in a white coat tells them to, absent of any propaganda or other priming, what chance do you figure that you have of gaining acceptance over an issue that is saturating the media?</p>
<p>Fat people, fat acceptors, stop asking empty headed robots to accept you.  They will not because they have been raised in a culture that promotes the idea that you are defective, useless, and worthless.  Your efforts to convince them otherwise are utterly wasted.</p>
<p>The only way you can get them to stop harassing or discriminating against you is fear.  Because they are essentially, primitive people, the only language they understand is fear.  Fear of losing something important to them like social status, sex, and money moves them in a way that fear of being viewed as a jackass does not.</p>
<p>Some may not like to hear this, but since fat women are a bigger issue than fat men, and fat women are also more physically vulnerable, a stable humanistic patriarchal society is the only one in which a fat or any other kind of ugly woman has any value.  Indeed, a substantial proportion of you BBW&#8217;s out there may notice that your husband or boyfriend is a very dominant man.  If you&#8217;re Lesbian, you may notice that your partner is an extremely strong willed, and probably also physically strong woman.</p>
<p>If you are indeed a fat acceptor, you should not at the same time claim to be a feminist.  Supporting feminism is supporting fat phobia, because it is supporting the people who have, for the past four decades, been pressuring women to look more manly.</p>
<p>You are also supporting a movement whose adherents want to force you and your children to eat food that will make them insulin resistant, by taking meat and milk off the menu.</p>
<p><a href="http://cookingslim.org/what-is-a-natural-diet.html" target="_blank">Eat natural food</a>, and your weight will take care of itself in time.  In that time though, you may notice that your hormones balance as well.  If you&#8217;re a man, you&#8217;ll feel more manly&#8230;if a woman, more womanly.  Your figure will likely turn out better than it was before you got fat.  This is an even better reason to consider gender realism.</p>
<p>When fat acceptance began, it was to counter the Twiggy, feminist ideal.  Don&#8217;t ever forget that.  This is not just about the needs of very fat people.  It&#8217;s about the needs of slim but not starving people too.  It&#8217;s even about the needs of slim people who are starving and struggling to stay that way, when they shouldn&#8217;t have to.</p>
<p>Since most people, regardless of their size, are non thinkers, they can&#8217;t figure these things out for themselves.  Those of you who do have the will to change things need to stop wasting your energy and time trying to change their minds from a position of slaves instead of masters.</p>
<p>If you take the approach of an oppressed group who treats acceptance like an object that they have and you need, they will not feel benevolent.  In that frame, they are the kings of the conformist mountain.  They have the flag and tease you with it mercilessly.  The slim as well as the fat dieters gain status in the acceptance frame by refusing to accept you.</p>
<p>When they pick on you or discriminate against you, their egos are boosted at your expense.  It is difficult to convince someone to stop doing something that feels good to them.  It feels good to them to show that they belong.</p>
<p>What needs to be done is that the mountain they are grazing-I-mean-standing on has to be switched for another.  If the terrain changes, they have to adapt to the new environment in order to feel that sense of belonging, which is the most important thing in the world to them.</p>
<p>I seem harsh in describing it, but this herd instinct is very important in a civilization.  Everybody can&#8217;t all be going in a different direction.  It needs to be easy for the people to empathize with one another.</p>
<p>So become the gardener of the ground they have to stand on.  Promote feminine beauty in women, not the manjawed Amazons.  Manjawed Amazons should be a flavor, not the only ideal.  Waifs are another flavor.  If you own some stuff, put more legitimately healthy people on the face of it.  It might be more difficult to look for beauty and fitness instead of just slimness and photochopability, but it&#8217;s worth the time and expense to make the culture a healthier one.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a big woman or a big man, wear clothes that actually fit you instead of following trends.  You don&#8217;t have to wear tents.  If you&#8217;re not sure where to go and you need specifically western clothes, find some Russian seamstresses tailors.  Their sense of style is very size friendly despite the relative rarity of fat folks in Russia.</p>
<p>Look nice when you go out.  If you look frumpy, people will think you are weak and pounce on your perceived vulnerability.  If the &#8220;people of Walmart&#8221; folks are running around, they should not get a photo of you looking bad.  They should scoff at your arrogance.</p>
<p>Yes, be arrogant, not overcompensating.  Especially after being on a natural diet for a year or two, you are probably healthier than stronger than them.  If they&#8217;re also eating natural, then chances are it&#8217;s because at some point their health took a hit from the typical western diet too, so they know they&#8217;re mortal.</p>
<p>When someone picks on you, be merciless because you know you&#8217;re dealing with a blinded cretin, or merciful because you know you&#8217;re dealing with a helpless sap behaving like a blind cretin because they&#8217;re desperate for attention.</p>
<p>Be dangerous.  Take up a martial art, or don&#8217;t hide the ability to fight, or if you&#8217;re female, that you have feminine wiles.</p>
<p>For females, this is your greatest power.  You don&#8217;t need to be tough like a man.  If someone makes a rude comment towards you, burst into tears.  Make them have to follow through on their meanness in picking the easy target.  Let them be very obviously the unattractive bitch or the stupid asshole pussy who picks on girls because he&#8217;s too wuss to pick on guys.</p>
<p>The hatred of robots is meaningless.  They have no power.  They are being puppeteered by people who have power that they don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Your battle is not against the sheep.  It&#8217;s against the shepherd.  <strong>Become the new shepherd, and the sheep will follow you.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Obesity moral panic, step by step</h2>
<p>1.  <strong>Promote an androgynous ideal for women</strong>. (first wave 1920&#8242;s, second wave during WWII, third wave started in the late 1960&#8242;s)</p>
<ul>
<li>Social enforcement factor: You must look more like a man to compete with men.  Promote androgynous models as more beautiful than the busty, thick thighed pin-up girls of the past.  Manjaw becomes standard.</li>
</ul>
<p>2.  <strong>Promote a vegan/low fat/high grains/cholesterol free diet as healthy and the best way to achieve the ideal look.</strong> (limited trend from the late 1800&#8242;s, and mainstreamed in the 1970&#8242;s)</p>
<ul>
<li>Social enforcement: &#8220;Meat is murder!&#8221;, eating foods with cholesterol gives you heart disease, if you&#8217;re fat you must be doing something contrary to the reccomendations.</li>
</ul>
<p>3.  <strong>Scare the public about obesity.</strong> (started in the 1970&#8242;s but really got rolling in the 1980&#8242;s, and reached frantic levels in the new millenium)</p>
<ul>
<li>Social enforcement: blast statistics everywhere, and don&#8217;t let a night of news pass without displaying images of the severely morbidly obese minority of overweight people.</li>
</ul>
<p>4.  <strong>Promote the idea that obesity is the result of</strong> (incurable)<strong> mental illness</strong> (1980&#8242;s) <strong>and/or genetic defectiveness</strong> (late 1990&#8242;s).</p>
<ul>
<li>Social enforcement: running in tandem with feminist agenda, claim that men are rampantly sexually abusing girls (which the vast majority are not) which makes them grow up to be obese women, and that most men prefer the unrealistic emaciated or androgynous ideal (which they don&#8217;t) which traumatizes women rather than just repelling them in the few cases in which this is true.</li>
<li>claim that for those for whom this is not true, it is genetic or caused by an incurable illness/damage to an organ (such as the thyroid)  (I&#8217;m proof, by the way, that a natural diet can reverse nutritionally induced hypothyroidism at least in one case.  I&#8217;ve seen others say the same in paleo/ethno forums.)</li>
<li>claim that if you weren&#8217;t sexually abused, and you&#8217;re not ill or defective, it&#8217;s because you&#8217;re not following the recommendations well enough.  So we&#8217;ll enact laws and policies that make it impossible for you not to comply.</li>
<li>at ground level, harass the defectives; &#8220;BURN the WITCHES!&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p>5.  <strong>Sell &#8220;$olution$&#8221;</strong> (drugs, gastric bypass) <strong>that do not threaten industries</strong> (&#8220;big food&#8221; (esp. Monsanto), big oil, big pharmaceutical) <strong>currently profitting from the previous steps.</strong> (2000&#8242;s)</p>
<ul>
<li>We are trying to help you to comply and still be skinny.</li>
</ul>
<p>6.  Since the &#8220;solutions&#8221; are too expensive for most affected individuals to get without their health insurance companies agreeing that they have a disease that can only be cured by these methods, <strong>nationalize healthcare so that the federal government gets to be the one who decides what is covered and what isn&#8217;t.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>If you do not play ball, we take the ball from you.</li>
</ul>
<p>7.  <strong>The federal government (CDC) of course, sees obesity as a disease</strong> (it&#8217;s prevalence is called &#8220;epidemic&#8221;), and of course the statistics say that it can&#8217;t be cured except by drastic and expensive measures.</p>
<ul>
<li>Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.</li>
</ul>
<p>8.  <strong>You pay more taxes, but they&#8217;re called &#8220;national health insurance&#8221; payments</strong>.</p>
<ul>
<li>You will pay so that others who aren&#8217;t able to voluntarily minimize their calorie intake can be surgically or chemically forced to.</li>
</ul>
<p>This is where you&#8217;re being herded, Americans.</p>
<p>Here in Israel, where we already have national health insurance, because of the sick mentality seeping into the politics and culture here, an overweight person who isn&#8217;t even sick because of their fat can get free or near free gastric bypass surgery.  I have a friend who should definitely not get it because she has severe nutritional deficiencies (from a history of yo-yo dieting and fat avoidance), but the doctors cut her up anyway.  I fear for her life.</p>
<p>Again, I don&#8217;t expect this will discourage any cretins, but for those who are not stupid, this should show you what idiots they are.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most of us in the western world and other industrialized countries could stand to lose a few pounds for aesthetic reasons.  Those of us who&#8217;ve <a href="http://cookingslim.org/what-is-a-natural-diet.html" target="_blank">gone natural</a>, a small but significant minority, have found that with our improved health comes a natural balancing of weight.  When one looks around though, it&#8217;s pretty easy to see that this issue has gone far beyond a debate about aesthetics and health.  It has become about whether or not some people have a moral right to harm others.</p>
<p>Recently, there was a big to-do in the blogosphere about Maura Kelly&#8217;s entry on Marie Claire, a semi popular blog-zine, <a href="http://www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/dating-blog/overweight-couples-on-television" target="_blank">Should Fatties Get a Room? (Even on TV?)</a>.  In it, she parrots a <a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/03/17/bmi_rubbish/" target="_blank">popular lie about obesity</a>, &#8220;And obesity is costing our country <em>far</em> more in terms of all the related health problems we are paying for, by way of our insurance, than any other health problem, even cancer.&#8221; </p>
<p>She then contradicts herself saying, &#8220;&#8230; because I&#8217;d be grossed out if I had to watch them doing anything. To be brutally honest, even in real life, I find it aesthetically displeasing to watch a very, very fat person simply walk across a room — just like I&#8217;d find it distressing if I saw a very drunk person stumbling across a bar or a heroine addict slumping in a chair,&#8221; but then claiming, &#8220;I&#8217;m not some size-ist jerk.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8230;</p>
<p>Okay, just keep telling yourself that.</p>
<p>In her apology, which seems contrived, she claims she didn&#8217;t mean to be cruel, and that she should basically be given a pass because she struggled with <a href="http://www.medicinenet.com/anorexia_nervosa/article.htm" target="_blank">anorexia</a> (another moral panic that didn&#8217;t quite take off since real anorexics are few, but socially induced, <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-409347/The-size-zero-pill.html" target="_blank">junkie &#8221;anorexics&#8221;</a> are legion).  So she basically wants consideration for her issues, but doesn&#8217;t want to extend the same to others.</p>
<p>Say it with me class: overly entitled.</p>
<p>In other blogs, some <a href="http://roissy.wordpress.com/2010/10/28/marie-claire-blogger-spills-truth-fatties-erupt-on-cue/" target="_blank">support her original article, and believe that people should shame and ridicule fat people</a>.  Some <a href="http://www.marieclaire.com/world-reports/opinion/fat-people-exist" target="_blank">think she was overreacting, and that the obesity on television issue should be handled with more realism and less hysteria</a>.</p>
<p>I am of the opinion that neither side understands what&#8217;s really at stake here because nobody is asking the right questions.  The first of them should be, &#8220;How did all this begin?&#8221;  The answer may surprise you.</p>
<div id="attachment_260" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 144px"><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/victoriansuit.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-260" title="victoriansuit" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/victoriansuit-134x300.jpg" alt="" width="134" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Oppressed victorian breeder</p></div>
<p>Way back in the early 1900&#8242;s, feminists began promoting the idea that differences in height and bodyfat between men and women were socially imposed.  Since then, they&#8217;ve been in the business of shaping perceptions about the feminine ideal.</p>
<p>They had a few good times.  During the wars, women were needed in the workforce, so the strong, sturdy girl was ideal.  In the 1920&#8242;s, feminists had successfully flexed their voting muscles, and brought in both prohibition and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flapper" target="_blank">flapper ideal</a>: a boyish, crass kind of woman with no regard for even the most primal womanly values.</p>
<p>Even so, up until the 1960&#8242;s, the feminine ideal was still pretty feminine.  The best efforts of the government and feminists, who were increasingly in bed together due to the &#8220;hand that rocks the cradle&#8221; reality of life, failed to make men stop liking big boobs, hefty butts, and dainty faces.</p>
<div id="attachment_261" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 202px"><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/flappersuit.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-261" title="flappersuit" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/flappersuit-192x300.jpg" alt="" width="192" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Liberated flapper</p></div>
<p>Obesity was pretty rare, especially in women back then.  It was an old people problem or a rich people problem, but seldom a problem since even old and rich people generally ate natural food.  The rich got to have more sugar than other people when they wanted it, but otherwise, they ate very well.  They also had to move more to live.  They had to walk to their mailbox, or go somewhere to get entertainment.  Some pastimes involved just walking and stopping from time to time for a drink or to talk to people.  &#8220;Promenade&#8221; was a normal thing to do.</p>
<p>People generally didn&#8217;t find obesity aesthetically pleasing, but it wasn&#8217;t such a big deal either.  You&#8217;d be hard pressed to find a dress above size 12 in a normal store, but nobody was going out of their way to make fat people feel bad about themselves.</p>
<p>So how did we get from Abbot and Costello having some friendly fattie and skinny fun to this?</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ft0nucLn-cE?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ft0nucLn-cE?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p>This is fat girl rodeo.  In the past few years, copycatting some guys in Australia(?) who actually have testicles&#8217; urban sport, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FqFN7vzG5k" target="_blank">big stranger rodeo</a>, some very pathetic sheeple decided to pick the easy targets: women&#8230;actually overweight young women and girls.  Apparently, <a href="http://roissy.wordpress.com/2010/10/25/americas-future-soldiers-are-unfit-for-duty/" target="_blank">even skinny American guys can&#8217;t run anymore</a>, so the &#8220;leg it&#8221; part was too much for them.  They have to pick women, so they&#8217;re less likely to get their asses kicked, and fat ones they think won&#8217;t be able to chase them down.</p>
<p>So one day you could be having a PMS bloat, and some drunk guy who is kinda fat himself, could decide that you&#8217;re fat enough to deserve to have your back or your knees wrecked so he can look like a good sheep who hates fatties.</p>
<p>How did we get here?</p>
<p>Well, I wish I could say that it was because of men, but it&#8217;s not.  In every society in all the world, men go where the pussy is.  If they thought that fat rodeo or talking trash to and about fat women would make them look less attractive, they wouldn&#8217;t do it.  They do these things because women have convinced them that it&#8217;s an okay thing to do.</p>
<div id="attachment_262" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 246px"><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/marilyn-monroe-swimsuit.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-262" title="marilyn-monroe-swimsuit" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/marilyn-monroe-swimsuit-236x300.jpg" alt="" width="236" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Oppressed junk in the trunk</p></div>
<p>Back in the early 70&#8242;s, the former Marilyn Monroe ideal was replaced by the Twiggy ideal.  She and models like her ushered in the new look for the new wave of women&#8217;s &#8220;liberation&#8221;.  Funny how that &#8220;liberation&#8221; gave rise to a generation of chronic dieters who were afraid to be fat.  They had to have the new career girl image, and that image had to be low fat and high fiber.  If you were fat, you were unprofessional.  Forget that women working in an office would naturally be kinda sedentary.  That didn&#8217;t matter.  If you couldn&#8217;t stay thin on a normal 2000-2500 calories per day, you had to go below 1000 so you could talk or type all day and still look like an athlete&#8230;or at least be skinny like one.</p>
<div id="attachment_263" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 238px"><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/twiggy.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-263" title="twiggy" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/twiggy-228x300.jpg" alt="" width="228" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Liberated of all oppressive trunk junk</p></div>
<p>Anyway, back to men going where the pussy is, much like the flapper in the 20&#8242;s, the Twiggy of the 70&#8242;s promised free casual sex.  Marilyn was a sexpot, but she was loving and clingy, not free and easy.  She wanted to be your wife, and would settle for being your mistress.  Twiggy didn&#8217;t need no stinking commitment.  She was the girl you could meet at a party, bang, and not even have to sleep with after.</p>
<p>Men, having their masculinity whittled down to nothing by women who cooked with credit cards and believed in the new addage, &#8220;What&#8217;s yours is mine, and what&#8217;s mine is mine,&#8221; didn&#8217;t stand a chance.  They bought the skim body and drank the skim milk.</p>
<p>Oh yes, let&#8217;s not forget the low fat craze.  Fat, even in food, became something bad.  Papers were published, and the people in white coats, heavily influenced by their co-opting of eastern religions, which aren&#8217;t bad if you know what you&#8217;re doing, decided that meat is murder.  No attention was given to the fact that people in Asia who were vegetarian for religious/ethical reasons, did a lot of lactofermentation, and seldom eschewed dairy.  Vegan is the new ideal, and even today, despite most of their studies being debunked many times over, they are still pushing it.</p>
<div id="attachment_264" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/wonderwoman_poster.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-264" title="Orig 269" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/wonderwoman_poster-240x300.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Stopping bullets with liberated bones of steel!</p></div>
<p>What I find incredibly ironic is that all the while people were being told that fat was a great evil, especially for women, Americans were being stealthily set up to become fat.  Grains became the base of the food pyramid, and though white sugar isn&#8217;t the best thing for you, it&#8217;s a whole lot better than the high fructose corn syrup replacing it.</p>
<p>Corn oil and canola oil were and still are promoted as healthier than animal fats.  Salt isn&#8217;t salt anymore.  You have to go buy special gray salt in order to get all the minerals you&#8217;re supposed to get from it.  Eggs are villainized for their cholesterol even though they are one of the few food sources of vitamin D available to most Americans.  People are being overdosed with omega-6 and deprived of omega-3.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re not eating paleo, primal, or according to your ancestry, and you&#8217;re not overweight, you&#8217;re lucky, but only for a time.  Cancer rates are going up right along with obesity, and likely due to the same causes.</p>
<p>Now, faced with the reality that westerners are fat, and that&#8217;s not going to change anytime soon, feminists have suddenly realized that they&#8217;re alienating a significant proportion of women with their superslim ideal.  Over the past decade, they&#8217;ve been working hard to blame men for pushing the unrealistic ideal, when they were the ones at the helm of programming men to be unrealistic.</p>
<blockquote><p>While I never related to the unstyled look of the early feminists and I tangled with boyfriends who did not want me to wear makeup and heels, I always assumed that one positive result of the feminist movement would be a more flexible and capacious notion of female beauty, a release from the tyranny of the girdled, primped ideal of the 50&#8242;s.</p>
<p>I was wrong. Forty years after the dawn of feminism, the ideal of feminine beauty is more rigid and unnatural than ever. &#8212; <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/30/magazine/30feminism.html?pagewanted=print" target="_blank">Maureen Dowd</a></p></blockquote>
<p>In the 70&#8242;s, as a reaction to the promotion of the feminist physical ideal, the fat acceptance movement arose to counter it.  Now that their plans to elimate the size differential between men and women didn&#8217;t result in a new generation of goose stepping uberwenches, they&#8217;re moving to co-opt fat acceptance.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t want to see that happen, but it will.  Feminism has government and financial backing, and fat acceptance, not so much.  So those of us who just wanted a little sanity in the past, are now going to get crowded out by women who want exemption from the realities of life.  They had no sympathy for us from the 70&#8242;s until just the past couple of years.  They promoted the idea that we were ignorant and oppressed, and now we&#8217;re diseased.</p>
<p>But wait&#8230;just when you think it&#8217;s simple, it&#8217;s not.  Remember, feminists aren&#8217;t the opposition anymore.  They are in bed with the government and making Rosemary&#8217;s babies already.</p>
<div id="attachment_265" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px"><a href="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/amazonideal.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-265" title="amazonideal" src="http://ironwynch.com/scrolls/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/amazonideal-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">You can look liberated like me for $50,000 taxpayer dollars!</p></div>
<p>If obamacare turns out to be like other national healthcare systems, since obesity is a disease now, and not a social and economic inevitability of misnourishing the masses, it should be treated.  It will become the right of every American, just like it&#8217;s the right of people in other national healthcare systems, to get free or near free weight loss drugs and surgery.</p>
<p>Now say this with me, class: cha-CHING!$!$!$!</p>
<p>So fat, the great evil of our time, is going to be big business.  The government and feminists want you to believe that it is a disease and a defect that has no cause but the weakness or genetic unfitness of the individual.  They need you to believe that because if everybody knew the real reason more people are fat today, they would demand to end subsidies of grain, and pay more attention to how their meat was being raised, and their dairy collected.  People would demand things that would either be expensive for them, or just wouldn&#8217;t profit them as much as making people fat and then charging them to fix it.</p>
<p>A shady mechanic breaks something in your car so that you have to go back to get it fixed.</p>
<p>Now, I understand that nobody who&#8217;s currently picking on fat people or people who aren&#8217;t really fat for being non ideal, is going to stop because of what I just wrote.  If they had that level of awareness, they wouldn&#8217;t be cretins.</p>
<p>I wrote this for everybody who observes the cretins, and understands what hopeless tools they are.  This should help you to articulate your disdain for them with more clarity.</p>
<p>Just remember that they can&#8217;t help themselves.  The overly socially dependent can&#8217;t see the big picture, and it&#8217;s kinda pointless to try to get them to.  Believe me, I&#8217;ve tried.  Just save yourselves, and try to keep your kids from ending up the same kind of badly programmed tools.</p>
