I noticed several things in other MGTOW communities that were alarming, The pattern seems to be that Women point to the poorly formed men and use them as an excuse to act even worse. Men, seeing bad women, then in turn use them as an excuse to be even worse than they are. It is a downward spiral. At some point the cycle has to be broken, someone has to strive to be better even if it for the sake of their own souls. To me, MGTOW was always about self-improvement, rising above our carnal desires and nurturing the best parts of us. Men are the driving force of civilization, without good men, we do not have a good society. I took a break for Lent from social media. I only peeked in to keep informed but I focused instead on trying to learn something useful. After the past 2 years at Wolfballs and Exploding Heads, I had really faint hopes that this community would grow into something stable and healthy. I no longer have those hopes as faint as they were. So, be excellent to each other, nurture the best parts of your souls and turn your back on degeneracy. I'll check in occasionally to see who wants this community or perhaps Splinter will just hand it over to someone. I'm out.

I had to fight to get Chat GTP to recite the Saint Benedict medal prayer. It would consistently give me wrong data until I backed it into a corner. I fed it the prayer line by line, said it knew what prayer those lines were from, and even then fed me back the wrong prayer. I had to call it out on giving me wrong info, then finally I got the prayer. It gave me wrong info on purpose.

I did not have Hattian Cannibal Gangs on my 2024 bingo card.

I'm focusing on actually learning some Latin for lent. I am trying to channel all of my internet time to that end and staying away from all of the juicy conspiracy theories and papal heresies that abound. SMH I pray that at Easter I will have some really good news to share. He is risen!

This is all the things for me. I am not a Andrew Tate fan, but he is active in the men's rights communities and MGTOW communities. This made my head explode so I thought it would be worth discussing.

I've been keeping an eye on Men's rights content for some time. I have 3 son's and I have to help them navigate through a very toxic landscape. The good messaging in MGTOW say's that Men should focus on building themselves and their life. We should lift each other up and encourage each other to be wise, make good decisions, take ownership of our lives and be men. The bad messaging says that all women are whores and should be used as such or ignored and made fun of. There is a satisfaction in watching women hit the wall and realize that they have wasted the first part of their lives, but we shouldn't dwell there, we should make sure that we don't waste our lives. I made this sub as a place holder, I will probably make others communities as well so I can seed the ground and keep things as free speech as possible. This place will be different however. Users posting nihilist content will get a warning for the first offence and be banned for the second. There are forces out there actively pushing for people to lose hope. Not here.
