The guy is pond scum.....no wait that's insulting to pond scum.

 

[CS_Dan]

Even as a non-violent person, I'm afraid that I would start some shit if I ever met these people.
I hope someone has been around all the bars in Newcastle warning that this is coming.

Learned about this today when someone was posting on Facebook that they were meeting up to go on a rape rampage. But reading the website, this doesn't seem to be the case? Looks more like some closet homosexuals want to be in a secret handshake club where they can be bitter over women together. Which, I mean, go ahead I'd say, what's the ruckus about.

But I'm sure this isn't the whole story? Anyone have some juicy sources where I can read up on them?

Roosh has written numerous books and articles that are both anti-feminist and push a "pro-rape" angle. He advocates viewing women as objects for men's pleasure. Believes men should be allowed to sleep around and that women who do are terrible. That women are valuable only for beauty and fertility, etc. etc. He believes in and pushes extremist right-wing rhetoric regarding the family unit. Basically. It's really not hard to see all of that.

 

[Bronx-Man]

These people are irrelevant in the grand scheme of humanity.

Hmm, I wonder if something's getting organized to "welcome" them...

Heh and people buy this shit huh? I saw that in order to know the secret location of some of the meetings, you need to show a picture of you holding one of his books, bound to sell some more due to this too. Morbidly fascinating, in a horrible train crash kind of way.

Can you imagine how bad the conference rooms are gonna smell after one of these demonstrations? They're gonna need a truckload of Febreze.

This dude is going to get chased out of Glasgow. Hope he's got a good pair of trainers!

So proud of this city!

Pro-rape campaigner: I've had more threats from Glasgow than anywhere else in world

A PRO-RAPE campaigner who is planning events in Scotland has branded Glasgow “a convict resettlement zone”.

Pick-up artist Daryush Valizade, also known as Roosh V, called for rape to be legalised on private property.

The American has faced a furious backlash from Scots after it was revealed he was planning “international meet-ups” in Glasgow and Edinburgh.

More than 50,000 people have signed a petition calling for him to be banned from spouting his views in Scotland.

But Valizade, 36, claims he has recieved violent threats and shared a message sent to him on Twitter where one user talks about him being “kicked to death”.

He tweeted: “I’ve received more threats from Glasgow than anywhere else combined.

“Is it some kind of convict resettlement zone?”

But Lindsey Smith replied: “Oh bless. No laddie, it’s our men don’t take kindly to someone advocating raping women.

“We’re civilized.”

Valizade also formed a group called Return of Kings which claims that men are superior to women and are being supressed by feminism.

Last year, he was blasted after penning an article claiming legalising rape would end “rape culture”.

Nine events have been organised across the UK this Saturday including in Glasgow’s George Square and Edinburgh’s Grassmarket.

This is going to be great on Saturday

One of the (many) sad things about the legal rape stance is that it sometimes feels like rape might as well already be legal considering how low the conviction and report rates are. S we're already super on guard whenever we're alone with a guy who isn't well known. What else do they expect us to do? Like, do these guys just want women to stay home all day and night? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of trying to "pick them up"?

 

[barik]

with a strict ban on women, homosexuals and transsexuals attending

How about this, PUA cunts; keep everything contained within your disgusting little group and just go fuck eachother. Don't bother asking for consent, rape doesn't exist!

Which is because of the sort of people this topic is about. There's a lot of creepy dudes out there.

 

[Pacbois]

hahahaha omg they're meeting at the Place de la Republique in Paris, aka perhaps the biggest meeting place in the city. They're going to be crashed so hard, that's going to be fun.

 

[CHEEZMO™]

These guys are coming to Manchester?

Hmmmmmm

 

[Palette Swap]

They're having a meeting in my city and I almost want to go out of morbid curiousity.

One is happening in my neighborhood. Should I attend.

Can't wait to read the report.
I imagine it will be pretty underwhelming though, like a bunch of undersexed lonely men crying "rah rah women" together for a couple of hours.

Would this even be lawful if the state of emergency is still in effect and gatherings are discouraged?
Then again, there are dozens of them lol.

So they end up been like this? hehe

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

How scared of women do you have to be to join something like this or share their views?

I don't think you want to read this.

 

[Slayven]

I wonder how these guys view their mothers, sisters, aunts, etc.

 

[Palette Swap]

I don't think you want to read this.

I managed to keep reading until I reached this gem:

A woman who is perfectly fine with immediately making close physical contact with a complete stranger is putting herself at risk and sending a signal to others that she has a higher tolerance for aggressive sexuality.

Holy shit, hateful wankers doesn't begin to describe them.

 

[daveo42]

The leader of a 'neomasculinist' group who believes the rape of women should be legal...

gotta see the pics of whoever shows up. it's gonna be great.

I honestly want to know what drives people to such crazy views. Abuse as a kid? Bullying? It's as fascinating as it is repulsive.

lack of anything they have to be proud of beyond being porn with a penis? :/

 

[OniBarubary]

eh, don't want to risk them escaping and passing it on to others outside though.

Alright, fine.

Can I start a GoFundMe or Kickstarter to hire a gang of women to just wade into these gatherings with baseball bats? The stretch goals can be aluminum bats, golf clubs, then 12 inch dildo bats.

 

[FLEABttn]

I think thats unfair. When PUA as term started to come about, it was mostly about logical things guys should be doing if they want to improve their social lives. Sure there was a misogynist undercurrent with some of it, but it was easily ignored.

I think it's a stretch to call my characterization of them unfair when their dating strategies are effectively the DENNIS system. Negging has been there for a very long time. I suppose if we overlook the misogyny in that, then it obviously isn't misogynistic.

Might need to pay attention to the George Square webcam on Saturday, see how it plays out. I'd be amazed if 10 people showed up.

"PUA" is the sound I make when I hear about these people.

 

[PSqueak]

You know, if his batshit insane idea was to be legal, i'd wager to say he'd be the most raped person in history, like people would get him as soon as he sets an inch of his foot in their property.

 

[riotous]

For the leaders I think it's more complicated as they are taking advantage of guys who are essentially losers so there is an extra element to them including simple greed as some do make money from this crap. But for the followers it's bitterness of all sorts most likely; including a lack of success with women.

Looking back on highschool and my... well zero success rate with girls, making it out without absorbing these type of views while browsing reddit every day for three years is a fucking miracle.

donotlink.com is your friend. I used it to read their pathetic Alert message warning users not to joke about rape because the world is watching.

That is rad. I'm updating the links in the OP.

Are they?

Between these douchebags, stuff like the Red Pill movement and LAD culture - how many young dudes are being affected by this sort of stuff?

I'm using it.

It's focused on Australia and these are the 5 reasons:

1. If it were not for the British, it was only a matter of time before someone else “invaded” Australia
2. Aboriginal people practiced “colonization” too
3. Lack of development created cultural practices that were far from ideal
4. Australian Aboriginals were complete misogynists
5. Aboriginal culture was overrun because they lacked the ability to control their borders and property rights

Also:

Australian Aboriginals literally saw women as property, to be traded, beaten, or raped on a whim. These are traditional practices that echo in the Aboriginal treatment of women today.

Again, but it's ok if you do it.

So basically a defense of fascist "might makes right" thinking. No need for pesky things like human rights or ethical considerations, everyone else would do it so you might as well do it first! Implying that they were primitive savages is a useful touch too, I guess. Strange to see something like this in 2016, it's more suitable for the sensibilities of 1916.

Jesus, what? I don't know many open or closeted homos that hate women? Is that a thing?

There's a lot of misogyny that comes from some within the gay community. It's talked about in a lot of articles online, such as here. Here too.. Lots of other articles discuss it. Some within gay culture in particular have an issue with transwomen especially. It's a form of extremism, more or less. Not really what the topic is about but misogyny (even the more silent type) in the gay community is most definitely a thing. This video series also covers the matter and even covers how some in the gay community have an appropriation of black women in particular(the first article also covers this matter). Not saying it's a majority or anything but it's most definitely a thing.

[SomedayTheFire]

There is misogyny within part of the gay community but accusing the gay community (or rather closeted gay men) of creating and taking part in these kinds of "clubs" is deplorable.
