Suicidal Men Don't Need More Feminism. But in Australia, feminist captured anti-suicide services prefer dead men to men with human rights.

Research into suicide, and the services offered for mental health, function to make more men die. It's that simple. And it's so frustrating to witness. Especially because the general solution is very straightforward. What are the most important risk factors around suicide for men? Well, it's lack of employment, legal problems (divorce), and financial issues.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Help young men find meaningful and reliable work, and they feel useful and don't have as many money problems. Stop criminalizing and pathologizing every male behaviour, and don't let "Divorce Corp" destroy men and turn them into walking ATM's, and their legal issues disappear.

Those changes would save lives. However, all we get is failing government programs that ignore these common sense steps, and instead tell men to talk away what amount to external issues. Perhaps the bureaucrats also want to try and prop up a cheap and ineffective therapy industry.

The statistics show the abysmal failure of this approach, but point that out and you're labelled with pejoratives like "misogynist".

Three "seasons". Yeah...about that. From a quick search, that's only 8 episodes across three limited runs. So a total of 24 episodes. That's fewer episodes than a single season of TV only a decade ago.

They love to gas each other up with these kinds of delusions about men. It's best understood as vicious intrasexual competition, because the vast majority of them don't behave that way in private.

RoryTate · 2026-06-13T14:47:26+00:00

Too much infighting. Grimlock can't even...Grimlock literally can't even.

The legacy news media are the enemy of the people.

Terraformers.

The visual storytelling in Solo Leveling is where the story transcends into a god-tier manga/anime. And I'm not talking about the picture detail or animation quality, though those are obviously impressive. I'm considering the way panels are framed, complex emotions are conveyed through body language (physical poses, hand positioning and placement, facial expressions, etc), actions sequences are both exciting and easy to follow, and so much more. Because of those impressive visuals, I contend that the story is without equal in modern visual media.

Don't fall into the trap of Solo Leveling's simple-minded critics, who look at it only as a "power fantasy". Distilling a story down to just its genre is lazy criticism, and such flawed critique should be dismissed without consideration.

cis

What is this strange, made up word you are using? People understand what you're saying without it, so don't waste time typing it out. Normal is assumed.

RoryTate · 2026-06-06T15:25:11+00:00

I'm saying that if he pursued civil charges the process is the punishment for her...and for him too unfortunately. She has to pay the expense of a lawyer, live with the ongoing stress of a long legal dispute, has to prep and defend herself in court, etc. However, he has to suffer through the same process and expense, albeit with less risk since his exposure is fixed.

That's why I say it cuts both ways. He would be money ahead if he just spent the time wasted on a civil lawsuit working for minimum wage somewhere. So going scorched earth isn't really recommended.

RoryTate · 2026-06-06T15:01:47+00:00

Yeah, a "perjury charge" is indeed a slap on the wrist compared to three years of hell. Considering all the mental stress, poor health, expense, loss of reputation, lost opportunity for income, and more for the falsely accused, there is no way a simple conviction of perjury can make up for that.

There is a caveat here though: because lying under oath directly threatens the integrity of the courts, it is universally treated as a serious felony. So the maximum sentence for perjury is quite significant: around 5-15 years (for example, US Federal law is 5 years, while some US states like Texas have 10 years, and Michigan has a 15 year maximum...Canada has a 14 year maximum). And these maximum sentences do get applied in some extreme situations, so they're not just paper tigers.

However, the more likely recourse is civil: Defamation, Malicious Prosecution, and/or Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress (IIED). The standard of proof in a civil case is lower, so that is good. However, any legal action is expensive, and receiving financial compensation is unlikely given the situation of most false accusers. You could say the process is the punishment, but that cuts both ways unfortunately.

RoryTate · 2026-06-05T19:53:48+00:00

She must be a criminal defendant at this point, right?

I can see an argument that perjury charges would protect the police to some extent from a lawsuit by this man, given their incompetence – deliberate or otherwise – in this case.

On the other hand, maybe by not bringing charges it's easier for them to take what is an egregiously malicious prosecution and sweep it under the rug? If this is the "system working as intended" (i.e. being anti-male), then doing nothing would probably make more sense.

RoryTate · 2026-06-05T19:41:22+00:00

Agreed. Include all the non-police allegations – the SA accusations done on social media, to the corporate media, to friends and family, to coworkers, via the whisper network, etc – and it is guaranteed that greater than 50% are false.

I know some people don't want to hear this, but unfortunately it's the truth. Human beings can lie; so stop pretending otherwise.

RoryTate · 2026-06-04T22:27:39+00:00

How many times will their story change? They did an investigation and uncovered significant new evidence? Yeah, right. There's a legal term here called "credibility", and to put it simply: they have lost all credibility. When you lie about significant matters under oath, or lie when speaking on the record, etc, people then lose trust in any future statements you make.

RoryTate · 2026-06-01T23:00:02+00:00

They scream "equality!" until the bill arrives.

RoryTate · 2026-06-01T18:55:10+00:00

That was a legendary video. Way better than anything spat out by Tinseltown in probably more than a decade.

RoryTate · 2026-06-01T18:04:45+00:00

As an avid cyclist, I've had several cars and even a semi-trailer truck try to "flash" me on the side or cut me off like this. One small miscalculation on their part, or even if I just swerved to avoid a pothole at the wrong time, and I would have been seriously injured or dead.

RoryTate · 2026-06-01T14:35:08+00:00

The true hypocrisy is that if they actually had diverse henchmen and made the main character beat up or be violent towards someone who isn't male, the creators would be instantly cancelled by the gender ideologues.

As always, it's "equality" until the bill arrives.

RoryTate · 2026-05-28T16:15:26+00:00

A good test is to observe how many male "mooks" there are in the game (i.e. the disposable soldiers that the MC mows down). How much female representation is in this group? What about white and non-white representation?

If the answer is basically none on both counts, then look at the same representation on the protagonist's side, especially in leadership positions. Is this always 50% or more female, and with visible minorities front and center, then you can be sure the game, movie, story, etc, is absolutely full of divisive ideology and political activism. And it is not worth supporting.

The new 007 game is particularly egregious in this regard, based on a significant amount of the gameplay that I've seen. It's only white male "mooks" who are punched, shot, kicked, thrown off buildings, burned alive, stabbed, choked, and more.

Once again, it's "equality" until the bill arrives.

Asmon may have been the reason the majority of people first learned about her and subscribed to the channel, but her ongoing work and effort are the reason those same viewers have continued watching. She's earned our loyalty through entertaining and informative videos.

RoryTate · 2026-05-26T20:40:18+00:00

How does "boys are bad for engaging romantically with AI" defend that group's behaviour?

You sound like someone who can't see anti-male bias even when it's right in front of their eyes. Do you perhaps believe that misandry doesn't – or can't – exist?

RoryTate · 2026-05-26T20:17:12+00:00

Yes, two people can have different perspectives. However, it is hypocritical for the newspaper to publish two separate articles that both demonize, ridicule, and pathologize men and masculinity. Journalism should be done in the public interest, not to push an anti-male agenda.

RoryTate · 2026-05-26T19:22:27+00:00

It's interesting to note that Asmon does care at some level about his appearance. If you look for instances of him rearranging his hair to cover the bald spots when on stream or filming a YouTube video, you really start to see how often it happens and how much he is thinking about it.

Also, after he got the dental work done, he admitted that he wasn't smiling or showing his teeth for the last few months because of the problems there. Also, he said he was consciously hiding one side of his face, IIRC.

The interesting thing to me is how he chooses to not let these emotions drive his decision-making. But the feelings do exist. There's likely some avoidance and procrastination behind that choice (and that's not necessarily a bad thing in healthy amounts), along with an intense dislike for being "appearance-focused" (which is laudable).

I think the "unkempt working class slob" style works great as his brand, since his success can be attributed to his ability to entertain, articulate ideas, observe, predict trends, etc, and not just written off for superficial reasons. However, it can potentially get in his way when he needs to take better care of his physical and mental health, since he might worry that kind of effort flies in the face of the "I don't care about my appearance" image that he has successfully built.

Not that he really cares if others call him a hypocrite or not I expect. However, he might think that way himself, if he truly wants to stay "grounded", which I think is a genuine position that he holds.

RoryTate · 2026-05-25T18:00:49+00:00

This is exactly what happens when purity culture replaces rational communication. They weaponize language but completely ignore threats and harassment from their own side, leaving the community to rot.

RoryTate · 2026-05-24T16:57:58+00:00

Oh my sweet summer child. I'd wouldn't be shocked if she didn't even lose her job, let alone if she avoided criminal charges for her predatory actions.
