The cult of Feminism.

While all of these numbers may point to correlations rather than causalities, they certainly raise some questions worth asking. What, in particular, is happening with liberal women that makes them more inclined to report higher levels of unhappiness and mental illness? Are mentally ill people simply more drawn to liberal politics, or is the liberal ideology opening the door to a lack of fulfillment?

New psychology research links gratitude development to lower adolescent depression

A new study published in The Journal of Positive Psychology suggests that adolescents who become more grateful over time are less likely to experience depression—especially when their gratitude boosts their self-esteem. The research tracked hundreds of middle school students in China and found that distinct patterns in how gratitude developed over time were closely linked with levels of depression.​
Grievance studies, which is all feminism is, do just the opposite. In addition, these are luxury cults meaning they're the brainchild of the spoiled youth of wealth, luxury and idleness. These people aren't grateful ... they're butthurt.

The way out of superstition, fear and ignorance was the pursuit of truth - an objective truth, separate and transcendent to the human experience.

This would be a truth that was true whether you believed it or not or whether you liked the outcome or not. It would supersede race, age, status, gender, culture and all that.

This is the framework that lifts humanity from fear and ignorance so that we can eat a kiwi at the polar cap and ice cream at the equator while all the diseases are eliminated and we're reading the news on a hand-held GPS device.

This method - the method of scrutiny that eliminates the observer and the observer's bias is merely a method. It's not "dominant" or some other red herring false analogy. It's a workable and highly effective method.

It is this method that establishes critical thinking. If more people were actually trained in critical thinking they would be inoculated to cults like Scientology.

Feminism reverses all of that.

Feminism seeks to eliminate critical thinking and to establish superstition, fear and ignorance as a result.

This is the goal of cults. Cults capitalize on all of those attributes.

This circles back to "strong objectivity". I was thinking over this topic and this post is the result of that "think".

Look here:

Feminist Standpoint Theory:
Strong objectivity builds upon feminist standpoint theory, which emphasizes the importance of understanding knowledge from the perspectives of those who have been historically excluded from dominant knowledge production.​


Think of that for a moment - "dominant knowledge production". This means observable data and the conclusions from that - sans any personal bias.

That isn't "dominant" anymore than a wheel is the "dominant" form of locomotion. Instead, it's what works. That's like calling a spoon "dominant" in the use of eating soup. It's a tool that works - like a straw or a cup to hold coffee.

To phrase this use of tools as "dominant" is to re-contextualize the "production" of knowledge as a struggle. First of all, knowledge isn't "produced" - it's discovered.

Anyway, to exclude the observable truth in favor of a person's subjective bias is the reverse of discovering knowledge and is, firmly, in the realm of "produced" knowledge.

Just watch any soap opera to see what this does. The whole crux of the soap opera is the missed withhold, the unspoken intent, the misconstrued remark - it's all miscommunication and ARC breaks with a bunch of hidden activity just beyond the threshold of knowledge but within the radar of intuition. This hidden activity and the miscommunication and ARC breaks are usually all in orbit of 2D relationships and all that. A soap opera, to work, is the entire manufacturing of mountains out of mole hills.

This is exactly what feminism does. It takes innocuous situations - whether inconvenient or not - and blows them up to the level of heinous criminal acts. This is all due to the personal ego bias of the observer.

What they are really saying in a convoluted manner is that as it suits, we will add biases to our studies to make them conform to our own agenda.

The convoluted writing is to make it appear different to what it really is supposed to mean.

Any properly conducted study would include people from all sides of the spectrums involved in order to gather the full picture. They would be looking at what the activists are talking about and verifying everything from the data collected. Definitely not from the angles of hysteria and catastrophizing.

As many of you may know, the feminist movement hijacked the domestic violence shelters back in the 70s and turned it into a billion + dollar industry which still provided very little funds towards the victims. Most of the money has gone into jobs and power for the girls that run it.

Erin Pizzey was one of their victims and has written extensively about it.

In Australia, it has evolved into a particularly nasty movement that has created enormous destruction with everything it has touched. Most goals they set out to achieve have been achieved, but they are constantly moving the goalposts and escalating the persecution of everyone they see fit to.

The shelters for the victims here still struggle to function from lack of funds in general. One cannot help but suspect that the victims are not what this movement is all about.

This article explains what has been going on here in Australia...

Thomas Sowell did this video about the new Snow White movie.

What he is saying in here also applies to the feminist movement. Feminism is about equality as a lemon is part of the sugar family. It is all about power, control and wealth for the chosen few.

I'll let him explain it better than I can:

Here's a commentary piece from 2014:

Modern Feminism: Appalling Stupidity Backed by Hysterical Rage


Treating women as equals does not mean that we ignore differences — men and women tend to have different strengths and weaknesses, different likes and dislikes, and will often choose different career paths, family roles, television shows, books, and movies. In fact, men and women tend to like that they’re different and celebrate those differences. Feminism has reacted to this obvious reality by either arguing that our myriad differences are mere social constructs or by arguing that — to borrow my wife’s excellent summary of feminist philosophy – men and women are the same, except when women are better. After all, it wasn’t long ago that one prominent feminist argued that our entire “postindustrial society” was just “better suited to women.”​
Feminism doesn’t really have a philosophy. It’s barely even an ideology. It’s mostly just a series of temper tantrums thrown by a small, privileged minority. And, unless it changes, it will soon be irrelevant.​


"Men and women are the same, except when women are better."

That reminds me of this:
