Every social ill in the US that causes suffering and neglect is directly related to white people’s apparent need to inflict the most degradation possible upon Black people. Even at the cost of inflicting the same suffering and death on white people. #healthcare #education #criminaljustice

Does anyone remember the first time you read Return of The King? The scene where Théoden gives his speech to the Riders of Rohan before the battle for Gondor… The film adaptation was amazing, but reading it… Éomer actually gave death verse.

I just had a pretty visceral memory of a recurring back-and-forth between me and a pretty nasty clinical director. At one point in my career I commuted over an hour to my job. It was a salary job, so time sheets weren’t a thing. But I usually got in 15min after the place opened…

Facts! But for the folks needing help understanding this, ask yourself: “Are the people you listen to in happy, fulfilling relationships?” “And if so, do they act the same off the mic as do on the mic, or are they just playing a character?”
My Manosphere opinion is that men should not under any circumstances seek advice or opinions from other men on matters of manhood through any type of mass media & even if you satisfy that qualification you should only listen to men who care about your well-being specifically or are your therapist.
