    Hard times make hard men, easy times make week men. We are spoiled compared to our grandparents and our grandparents were spoiled compacted to their grandparents.

    People who don’t t struggle Seem to invent struggles.
    Yup.
    And that is typical of people in the West.
    No REAL struggles when measured with society on the other end so they come up with stuff to be offended about.
    Really cool debate here between Africans and American's... this fake victimhood the Americans love to constantly grasp at makes me want to puke.

    Men are competitive risk takers in order to gain mating opportunities. Women are liberal communitarian minded. Voting habits confirm this. Yes there are exceptions, but exceptions don’t make the rule.

    A male mating strategy for those less able to compete is to “sympathize” with women. This is compounded by female dominated schools, liberal biased politicians and liberal biased media all labeling masculinity as toxic and for “real men to be sensitive”. Less masculine men compete to be the nicest of the nice guys which translates to soft men. A society that espouses and rewards “softness” is doomed to be overtaken by a society that rewards strength.

    Something like that. But I don’t think people put enough weight into even simple tasks. Not everyone can invent something that changes the world or cure cancer.

    But the fulfilment that can be gained by something like splitting wood or cutting grass. Something that actually takes effort. bigger than a basic chore like washing dishes but still benefits one’s life in some way.

    soft society is at the bottom of the hierarchy, mating, not actualization.

    Was driving to Richmond Hill last night around 8:00 when I saw a string of lights in the western sky. Anybody else see it? Apparently the latest batch of Starlink satellites launched Sunday. Pretty cool sight to see.



    Not my pic. I checked my dashcam, but I think it was too dim to pick up.
