Takyon is an incel! Disgusting, Bro!

Journal by aristarchus

Yet another aristarchus submission has met it's appointed fate. Nothing surprising, but, there was a non-blank rationale field, highly unusual!

We're sorry, your submission "This online comic shows how pick-up artists morphed into the alt-right" was declined for the following reason:
All hail the Supreme Gentleman! -takyon

The editors felt it inappropriate for them to correct the issue themselves. Please feel free to correct the issue yourself and resubmit.

Of course, I think the entire point was that these are no Gentleman, and the Red Pillars need to get themselves over to The Art of Manliness website. And apparenty, this includes one of our more prolific editors? Cause for pause, Soylentils! What are we part of, here!

    Interesting phenomenon, this political conservatism and male sexuality. I recommend a look at Male Fantasies, Vol. 1: Women, Floods, Bodies, History [amazon.com], by Klaus Theweleit, University of Minnesota Press; 1St Edition edition (April 1, 1987). Seems that the men of the Freicorps in the Balkan wars were much like the alt-right of today, seeing women as either on pedestals as wives and sisters, or as Communist THOTs. And they had a tendency to transfer women from one category to the other rather quickly. Not surprising, then, that members or even founders of the "alt-right" have, um, difficulties, in their personal relations. The denouement of Matt Heimbach [washingtonpost.com] being one case in point, the other Richard Spencer's recent divorce [gq.com].

    The linked cartoon lays out a similar but much more recent history, but this is nothing new. Right-wing males have a hard time relating to other human beings as fellow human beings, particularly if they are female.
