Home Sweet Home


Yeah, I haven't been posting much...still struggling as a debt slave in our Brave New World Order and Obama's changing economy...

...but I've still been thinking a lot about all the MRA related issues; the gender war, the decline of Western Civilization and all the other topics for which my eyes have been opened to in the last couple of years.

There's a lot of time to think when you're driving in traffic to and from the office.

One topic I've been thinking quite a bit though is this:

IF you do take that incredible risk in today's crazy system, and you do get married...the quality of your wife will determine the quality of your home.

She literally and figuratively BECOMES your home.

Because if she's a loving, thoughtful, kind and giving person, who cares about what you think and what you have to say, and is not intent on chattering your ear off as if you were one of her gossipy girlfriends the minute you walk in the door, and who tends the domestic chores and fills your kitchen up with wonderful smells of the forthcoming meals you savor, you cannot WAIT to get home every day.

But if she's a shrill, shrieking shrew that nags you the minute you get in the door, demands you "share the domestic load equally!" and withholds sex as a means of manipulating you, "Home" doesn't have the same ring to it..eh?

These thoughts came to me when I overheard a few woman at lunch the other day at a restaurant here in Downtown Honolulu. They were discussing the divorce one of them was in the middle of going through.

"He's such a Workaholic!"

Oh how I am sick of hearing that particular complaint from bitchy women!

I felt like leaning over and saying the following to her:

"Your husband is a workaholic because he'd rather be working late (or having an affair, or drinking himself silly with his friends) than come home to the environment you've created there! No women who knows how to treat her man will EVER be whining to her girlfriends that her husband is a "workaholic!"

A happy, pleasant wife who shows her love to her husband will have no problem making sure her husband WANTS to get out of the office or away from his work-site as soon as he possibly can, every single day to get home to the SANCTUARY you create for him!

If he doesn't come home all the time...take a look in the mirror and be honest with yourself: Would you want to come home to you?"

Dialectical Contradictions


One of my favorite political humor sites is The People's Cube - a humorous satire that points out all the various levels of socialism inherent in the liberal/Democrat/Progressive platform by comparing them to the old Soviet Union regime's propaganda and imagery.

While most of the articles and blog entries are satirical in nature, there was actually a serious-toned article written by one of their contributors from a Russian immigrant to America who discussed the dialectical contradictions of the Soviet Communist Regime...and how he came to America and sees the same sort of dialectical contradictions here. From the article

Contradictions of Socialism (I saw the future & ran away)

There was a time in recent American history when certain Soviet jokes didn't work in translation - not so much because of the language differences, but because of the lack of common sociopolitical context. But that is changing. As President Obama is preparing us for a great leap towards collectivism, I find myself recollecting forgotten political jokes I shared with comrades while living in the old country under Brezhnev, Andropov, and Gorbachev. (I was too young to remember the Khrushchev times, but I remember the Khrushchev jokes.) I also noticed that the further America "advances" back to the Soviet model, the more translatable the old Soviet jokes become. ~

Not all Soviet advancements have metastasized here yet, but we have four more glorious years to make it happen.


Here is the old joke that he recalled from his life in the old Soviet Empire:

The six dialectical contradictions of socialism in the USSR:

  • There is full employment - yet no one is working.
  • No one is working - yet the factory quotas are fulfilled.
  • The factory quotas are fulfilled - yet the stores have nothing to sell.
  • The stores have nothing to sell - yet people got all the stuff at home.
  • People got all the stuff at home - yet everyone is complaining.
  • Everyone is complaining - yet the voting is always unanimous.

Here's his explanation of dialectical contributions...which is what we NWO conspiracy theorists with tin foil hats firmly planted on our heads recognize as the Hegelian Dialectic...the old "thesis + antithesis = synthesis"

Dialectical contradictions are one of the pillars in Marxist philosophy, which states that contradictions eventually lead to a unity of opposites as the result of a struggle. This gave a convenient "scientific" excuse for the existence of contradictions in a socialist society, where opposites were nice and agreeable - unlike the wild and crazy opposites of capitalism that could never be reconciled. Hence the joke.

Except it's really not that funny when you really think about it. Especially when you consider his recognition of the dialectical contradictions he sees in America that parallel his observations of life in the USSR...

When I moved to America, where wild and crazy opposites of capitalism were supposedly at their worst. Until recently, however, the only contradictions that struck me as irreconcilable were these:

Economic justice:

  • America is capitalist and greedy - yet half of the population is subsidized.
  • Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims.
  • They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the government.
  • Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep getting poorer.
  • The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about.
  • They have things that people in other countries only dream about - yet they want America to be more like those other countries.

Hollywood cliches:

  • Without capitalism there'd be no Hollywood - yet filmmakers hate capitalism.
  • Filmmakers hate capitalism - yet they sue for unauthorized copying of their movies.
  • They sue for unauthorized copying - yet on screen they teach us to share.
  • On screen they teach us to share - yet they keep their millions to themselves.
  • They keep their millions to themselves - yet they revel in stories of American misery and depravity.
  • They revel in stories of American misery and depravity - yet they blame the resulting anti-American sentiment on conservatism.
  • They blame the anti-American sentiment on conservatism - yet conservatism ensures the continuation of a system that makes Hollywood possible.

I never thought I would see socialist contradictions in America, let alone write about them. But somehow all attempts to organize life according to "progressive" principles always result in such contradictions. And in the areas where "progressives" have assumed positions of leadership - education, news media, or the entertainment industry - contradictions become "historically inevitable."

If one were accidentally to open his eyes and compare the "progressive" narrative with facts on the ground, one might start asking questions.

Indeed.

Here are a few more select dialectical contradictions he lists --

People's power:

  • Liberals believe they're advancing people's power - yet they don't believe people can do anything right without their guidance.
  • People can't do anything right - yet the government bureaucracy can do everything.
  • The government bureaucracy can do everything - yet liberals don't like it when the government takes control of their lives.
  • Liberals don't like it when the government takes control of their lives - yet they vote for programs that increase people's dependency on the government.
  • They vote for programs that increase people's dependency on the government - yet they believe they're advancing people's power.
Public education:
  • Liberals have been in charge of education for 50 years - yet education is out of control.
  • Education is out of control - yet liberal teaching methods prevail.
  • Liberal teaching methods prevail - yet public schools are failing.
  • Public schools are failing - yet their funding keeps growing.
  • Their funding keeps growing - yet public schools are always underfunded.
  • Public schools are always underfunded - yet private schools yield better results for less.
  • Private schools yield better results for less - yet public education is the only way out of the crisis.
Liberals and taxes:
  • Liberals want to help the poor - yet they won't give money to charities.
  • They won't give money to charities - yet they'd like the government to become a gigantic charity.
  • They'd like the government to become a gigantic charity - yet the money has to be taken from people by force.
  • The money has to be taken from people by force - yet they call it welfare.
  • They call it welfare - yet higher taxes make everyone poorer.
  • Higher taxes make everyone poorer - yet liberals find ways not to pay taxes.
  • Liberals find ways not to pay taxes - yet they get to be chosen to run the government.
Love and marriage:
  • Sex differences are the result of social conditioning - yet homosexuality is biological.
  • Homosexuality is biological - yet everybody is encouraged to experiment with it.
  • Everybody is encouraged to experiment with it - yet venereal diseases are treated at the taxpayers' expense.
  • Venereal diseases are treated at the taxpayers' expense - yet taxpayers have no right to impose standards since there are no moral absolutes.
  • There are no moral absolutes - yet gay marriage is an absolute must.
  • Gay marriage is an absolute must - yet family is an antiquated tool of bourgeois oppression.

The one criticisim I have of RedSquare is that it is a GOP-sympathizing website...pro-Bush, pro-War, pro-Compassionate conservative. While I love a good skewering of the Feminazi's and the sympathizing, emasculated manginas that make up the Demo-lib-progessive party, the failure to note the dialectical contradictions of the Republicans is a huge ideological blind spot for Red Square...they are unaware that they are playing their own role in implementing the Hegelian Dialectic of Republican + Democrat = NWO.

But they're still funny as hell!

Some MRA related dialectical contradictions:

An Introduction to Economic Reasoning


Given the hard economic times we are enduring, and the Obama's administrations plans that are most assuredly going to lead us from recession into depression, it's important that people have a clear understanding of the truth of the economic ideas that are being used to justify Obama's malfeasance and how and why we are where we are today.

Austrian Econmist and author, Tom Woods, just released a book entitled Meltdown: A Free-Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed, the Economy Tanked, and Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse

He began writing this book last year while Bush was still the President. He He, like all the other economists that study Austrian Economic Theories were predicting the current mess, quite accurately, years ago. He wanted his book to be completed and in print and circulation just as the shit hit the fan and the administration would start talking about economics to justify the expansion of government's scope and power.

The Austrian school of economics is also the primary source for Ron Paul's platform as a Congressmen and during his Presidential Candidacy.

So Woods has been doing the usual author of a brand new book thing, and been doing interviews, writing articles and such to get the word out on his book.

One of the sites he's been promoting his book is a place called Campaign For Liberty

At campaign for liberty, Woods offers three free, online links to books that go into further detail on the Austrian Economics School of thought on the current crisis, the solutions that would work, and the problems that are going to develop.

An Introduction to Economic Reasoning

These three books, all relatively short and available online or for purchase, are an excellent starting point for an education in sound economics.

Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt;
Essentials of Economics by Faustino Ballve;
An Introduction to Austrian Economics by Thomas C. Taylor


Obama and the Democrats who have the actual power to address the problems, are all most assuredly not going to follow the Austrian Economics Principles...because they are definitely more concerned with grabbing and consolidating more power in the leviathan of the Federal Government...and they are going to deliberately take this country into a Depression to do it.
