The decline of functioning society - What's going on?

Why would men work? To what end? If there's no family to garner the resources for, then men are easily satisfied. Give us a mattress, some food, and a roof over our head, 2 pairs of jeans and a few shirts and we're good. There's no incentive for men to conquer the world so to speak for they're doing it for nobody, since women aren't interested the least in having families or making good wives. Moreover, with the welfare stuff it's fairly easy to get on the dole some way or another. Here in the NL, 1.3 mil are in the welfare system either for not being able to work, or getting fired, or whatever subsidy there's out there, out of a labor force of 13 mil. That's 10% allegedly can't work or needs support. While there's always a portion of the population that needs the support for sure, you cannot tell me that that goes for 10%. But well if the system wants to keep you dumb, stupid and weak, then a massive welfare system is fantastic, and combine that with feminism and the attack on men/the family, then you're gonna demotivate men to the point that they're just not motivated anymore to contribute anymore and be of value. End result is a disorganized society that's organized enough to keep going on the backs of the slaves that continue in it, and weak enough not to form any threat of uprising. That's the perfect combo the regime is looking for.
Well said.

It's shocking to hear these millionaire talking heads talking that the goy should work dirty jobs to get taxed.

Let's define working first: it means you work in the system and you're taxable 50% on everything you do.

Many men work in private. Work on my house, help family, help friends. This is not work according to the system.

The system wants taxable work.

There is little advantage to work in the system. For this reason there is a large black market economy especially for the "dirty" jobs.

Working in the system, means sharing 50% of your income with the slave master who hires trannies to propagates your son to cut his dick off. The system that tells girls to behave like whores and get tattooed and act like obnoxious bitches.

Use the system for your advantage, don't be used by it.

I'm all for moderate social functions preferably run by churches but that's not what this is about.

The comments are killer there. Rowe also needs to get red pilled. All of a sudden human beings changed, right?

OR, the pay isn't enough and even having money doesn't matter, since young marriage and female beauty is essentially nonexistent anymore.

Yes, the video missed the mark quite a bit. Men are dropping out because there isn't much to live for anymore. At least in the 50s when they said the labor participation rate was 98%, many men had a thin pretty traditional wife who would cook them dinner. Now? Many married men I see are completely emasculated and dating down, sometimes substantially down. That's for the ones who can actually pair up. Many don't. Women are beginning to earn more and have more degrees. What is the incentive for working hard and upholding your values when society and women don't care?

I suggest people watch an old movie with Michael Douglas called Falling Down. It's a sad story about a man who just snaps on society, but there is a telling part when he says how he did everything right and should be rewarded. Instead, he wasn't. Also this one:

"I lost my job. Actually I didn't lose it. It lost me. I'm overeducated, underskilled—Maybe it's the other way around. I forget—but I'm obsolete. I'm not economically viable. I can't even support my own kid."

That's the message men in the West are given, they are obsolete and not viable. No wonder many drop out.

This is the modern materialist dilemma. It's interesting and sad that it is a sign of many fake things about modernity, and one of the ways that checks the fake system back into a more honest one, or at least a poor one where then some kind of reset has to take place (be careful though, right?).

I just mentioned this to a friend yesterday, funny you mention it. It was hysterical when he shot up the fast food place.

I really liked this movie. When I went through my divorce I could identify with Michael Douglas' character. Devon Stack from Black Pilled does a very good take down on how insidious this movie actually was.

Good analysis. I saw these things while watching, especially the caricature of the Nazi store owner. But his statement at the end that once we are gone nobody will care or know we existed. That can be extrapolated to everyone. Even the most influential people in history will eventually be forgotten. I see how it's trying to convey the very black pilled message though.

His idea that Foster's character tries to reason first, is a strength and a weakness. You can not reason with groups that despise and want to eradicate you. Politically, the right has always tried to reason with the left, only for the culture to continue moving left.

The whole situation of America is very reminiscent of what happened at the end of the Western Roman Empire. Of course we can talk all day about the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine) but no one talks about it hat happened to the Western Roman Empire.

There’s this mythos that barbarians took over the West and the medieval era began, but what I’ve found out from side bar university is that’s later. Like the 700s 800s where the Franks took over everything and started what would become Catholicism and the medieval feudal system. In the 400s, 500s, and 600s, the rank and file Western Roman just stoped caring. Nobody was interested in saving the Empire because the Empire just wasn’t worth saving. The “benefits” of Roman citizenship made life more miserable - not better.

You had this massive behemoth that taxed you to death, wouldn’t let you leave your town or even change jobs, and forced you to fight for an aristocracy that no longer even shared your interests. The late Roman aristocracy was no longer a soldier elite “of the people” it had been, It has become an entrenched hereditary group that operates on pure fantasy. I see that in modern America.

I’d like to know where the shift happened then and when the shift happened now. Like look at “Wolf of Wall Street” The financial and advertising system was ran by “boys will be boys types” and not the corporate wokesters. And looking at 00s Hollywood, I want to know what happened? A shift happened where the elites of our society got consumed by fantasy.

And it’s going to end their society. Without young men putting in the work, there’s no civis. Young men build the city. And those young men become middle aged men with families who carry the torch. We’re heading straight for an era of apathy. The mass media brainwashing can only do so much. The smart ones are figuring it out but when the less intelligent men figure it out too it’s over for America. Combine this late empire vibe with the rise of the BRICS it’s going to get rough.

Crucial point. Well stated. I try to tell this to "conservatives" a lot, who are still trying to hang on - it's pretty funny, but also rather pathetic.

Also spot on. It's what we said in that working men video - they don't even bother to ask a man in that demographic, just lies and distracting platitudes. Nonetheless, without those men working, productivity (which is plummeting and the economy similarly, since it's fake propping up for years now) is gone-zo and so is the ability to use debt as the extender of the "fake wealth."

When do less intelligent men figure it out? When the disability is insolvent, and we're getting close to that too. But stay tuned for more videos from spoiled anchors, women, and boomers who will yell at the clouds that others aren't propping up the ponzi anymore for their free "stuff."

When I watched the video, I saw it as a commercial that manufacturers paid to CBS to help recruit more underpaid males for difficult jobs.

They blame the working man for the issue while not even bothering to talk to him. The media just can't help itself in it's bias.

Fortunately they did interview the manufacturer's association to get their opinion on why nobody wants their underpaying job. 99.9% of manufacturers admitting that they aren't paying fair wages, but we'll blame the worker.

They did also get the diversity hire HR lady to whine how their inability to pay real wages to another 15 people is costing them $5million/year in sales. CBS's own stat said it was for an average of $26/hour, or ~$52,000/year. Yet each worker would be bringing in $333,333 worth of business. So by their own math, they are only realizing 1/6 of the revenue they generate with up to 1/2 of it going to taxes. I'm sure the manufacturer isn't paying those tax rates. Why aren't they accepting those terms? Who cares, it's the workers' fault.

Why aren't they championing women for equality and equity on these difficult jobs?

Just another MSM hitpiece on males.

And to the obese diversity newscaster saying that these smart men are unattractive.... Trust me, sista, no one is thinking you're attractive at all.

Great post. You nailed them. Look a little deeper and you always find how ridiculous their positions are. They are so used to lowballing or abusing people they don't even wanna make money on the bottom line anymore. Amazing. This happens with hospital systems and doctors, by the way, where physicians are grossly underpaid compared to the system (which reaps HUGE profits and money because of hospital lobby, etc) ... but of course no one wants to hear people with 6 figure salaries to complain about being lowballed. Yet they do the work, have all the liability, and the C-suites make millions. I guess that's ok. :rolleyes:

It was interesting hearing from Vin, I've never encountered him before. Thanks.
One more thing I have to say, which is why are the only people that make really positive comments (I chuckled when he said, "This is the greatest time to live in") go on to inevitably admit that they are married with kids? It's like that guy who was doing all the analysis (why dude if you have kids) and then assigning the blame of the society on men, of course had kids. I find it strange that they have fallen into a trap of being falsely positive. Hope is one thing, but you can have hope and tell the truth (this society is a deluded, disgusting clown world at this point), and still do your best raising your kids. It seems sort of insulting that intelligent people commonly do this, not understanding apparently that they have the same or worse challenges given all the evil/bad inputs on their kids that exist, or are coming.

It always shocks me when I see young women and girls with their mid-riffs exposed in public. Some with bellybutton piercings. Wearing the most scandalous clothing you could imagine. How can anyone not see that this is eventually heading to the normalization of pedophilia if even the most sacred, innocent members of society are not out of reach of sexualization?

Alright, story time. We had a staff party recently. The guy who owns the restaurant I work at (trying not to say boss here) hosted it with the tips we accrued throughout the year. He has a great property. About an acre. It kinda looks like a mansion but smaller in scale. But still gleaming white. Immaculate lawns, and a large pool which we went to later in the afternoon.

After downing some beers, we, as a group, moved by the pool. To cut a long story short, two of the girls disrobed and got into the pool. They were wearing string bikinis revealing their buttocks RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE OWNER'S KIDS. I could not believe the audacity of these two. But yet it was probably not even audacity to them. It never occurred to them that some decency should be had, particularly in the presence of impressionable kids, but anywhere, too.

This country (Australia) is in for a world of hurt within the next 50-100 years.

The hurt is today. The more sin the more pain. It doesn't matter what the girls think. Or anyone for that matter. Sin is sin. I don't know what the future brings, but we are in a very high state of lies, blasphemy, lust, gluttony, lack of courage, denial of God.

This is what pain looks. I find it intriguing many say, well it's doable now. Well is it? Look how many people are on drugs to cope with the pain they experience in the world. Isn't depression just hurt for your own sins and the sins of the world. Hope is very low in people.

We are like slaves. And we keep saying ah well at least we have to eat. Not like those hunger belly kids in Africa. Maybe that's propaganda...

I find that shocking how many people are saying we are ok. I think we are far from okay. Who obeys the law of God?

Well we have our bellies filled with corn and seed oil and have unlimited porn and drugs to cope with it.

What a life.

That was also the era where tatted up Nazi prison gangs were a thing. Not anywhere near as much as Hollywood would have you believe, but I'm told you used to run into them at places like Biker rallies and metal concerts. Many times the people who got sucked up into that were white guys who needed to clique up to survive prison.

More like 5-10 years. The Western world is in a death spiral, and with the massive government debts, de-dollarization (USD), unchecked immigration, and the recent introduction of AI, the normies are blissfully unaware of the fate that is about to befall them.
