@Leo Gura I challenge you to try picking up men. It's much easier.

 

He’s not gay so it won’t be authentic.

Are you serous?

They come from men not getting laid, getting rejected, childhood trauma, lack of personal responsibility, wasting life playing video games, and getting lost down toxic ideological online rabbit holes.

Do some men get burned in divorce? Sure. But so do women. Divorce is bad for all involved. And divorce already assumes you got some skills attracting women.

Men are mostly bitter because they have not learned how to socialize. Learning to socialize is hard work so it's much easier to just sit online and blame women.

Many men are bitter because they don't have good looks and they believe this makes it impossible to date.

That’s just one subset of the problem. There is plenty of bitterness from men at all levels of socialization ability. The jaded player is a common trope.

Its dismissing a very real and serious phenomenon to say it isn’t a serious thing that low consciousness women mistreat men. A ton of dating culture is just gaslighting men to accept it (this feeds into hurting their ability to socialize).

And yes women also get burned by low consciousness men, which is why we have bitter women. It’s not because women don’t know how to attract men by and large.

@Raze I don’t agree a lot of being a low value male is mindset and psychology. It’s like a tiger that gets bullied by rabbits and said it’s not fair these rabbits are bullying me bro that’s not really the crux of the issue here. 
 

Men are socialized to be weak and I mean for explicable reasons but you have all the resources out there to empower yourself to a significant amount.

In an economic sense and money/business/career it’s different a lot of it is zero sum game someone HAS to lose but in dating not so much

I think you make fair points about people who graduate from these elite universities. I went to a very elite uni myself and I think similarly to you. Though I did notice a fair amount of them seemed very driven by status and pure success. But there were a mix of characters and many I only knew via their persona.

But I disagree with your point about people from an average uni. Many might take that offer but many wouldn’t imo. As with the character of elite uni grads it’s not so black and white imo

Yes, I agree with your points. Many people from many different backgrounds. I generalized somewhat.

Why are you presuming being low value causes bitterness? Plenty of low value males are happy or don’t blame women and plenty of high value males are deeply bitter towards women.

The banality of evil is the point.

Corruption rarely looks like evil. It hides itself as business-as-usual. Corruption is rarely this monstrous, grandiose thing. It's ordinary.

Yes, in my education a lot of questionably ethical things and behaviors were taught to us and even back then I had a hunch what we were being taught was only half of the picture and quite frankly morally wrong at times. We all lived in a collective bubble of ideas and didn't step outside of it. We weren't taught to question the ethics of what we were doing and much corrupt behavior was just normal.

He did, and they all ended up here on the forum.

More toys to play with for me

Eternal thanks to Leo and to the creators of that YT extension. The corruption of YT got so worse over the years... Since 2018 YT has gotten worse and worse. You could literally sense the corruption just by looking at the interface. Funnily enough, every time I thought of examples of corruption the first thing that came to mind is YouTube. Then all social media as a whole. I remember 2012 when I first got internet access and I got a laptop, man the internet then was so much more beautiful than it is today. The social media platforms were a joy to use, now they feel like a pool of shit.

No more Shorts. They are ruining my Focus!!!

For those of you who want a simple solution to YouTube’s algorithm madness, just turn off your search history on your YouTube account. It will always turn off recommendations regardless of whatever device you are on. You don’t need to install these extensions. Just turn off your search history and if you really like a video and want to see it again, hit the like button and it will save to your likes folder or save it to a playlist. When I open up YouTube, I don’t get any recommendations which is nice. Hope this resolves this discussion for you.

People don't even know how to see corruption. They don't have the consciousness to see it. They are blind because they've never seen Truth/God.

The reason I talk about corrupt so much is because I see it everywhere I look. Like an eagle flying over a cesspool. The frogs in the pool cannot see it.

In the UK we have a word for normalising corruption, it is called bunging or to bung.

If you bung someone, you slip them a sum so the task is carried out without fuss or without red-tape or without delay or without question.

People have turned this bribe-dynamic into an art-form such that it is admired widely.

Amazing and ingenious how they turned this around so that corruption is celebrated.

@Leo Gura Thanks for the note at the end of the Ivy leaguers blog post.

Your style has had me react in a worried ways sometime like “oh shit the truth is so harsh/far away form reach” etc, which is counter to what you want form this way of communication. I suspect who you intend to read these comments are regular maybe middle class somewhat wealthy people that need a bit of a shock. Not to say I don’t, or I never need it, but it was a bit challenging for me to get to understand your style after many years of following your material.

This holidays I used my free time to re-read your blog posts from october 2024 until present. @Leo Gura Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the effort you put for free for us! It is unbelievable how valuable your blog posts are! Your videos are the cake but the blog is like the cheery on top that makes us not forget the lessons from the videos! You could have used your time for personal enjoyment, or to do business or to make huge amounts of money yet you take your time to write such fascinating blog posts day in and day out! I'm currently struggling with money but I promise that one day you will receive from me 1000 € as a donation as a token of respect and deep appreciation for everything you did for us for free! I'd say one last thing: we all as a community should appreciate people like Leo much much more! We don't understand the value of someone until we lose that someone! I just don't want to imagine what would have been like if I were born in Russia or N. Korea and I couldn't have access to such life transforming content.

@Raze That’s a good point, I guess it has to do more with unmet wants and needs and who you project that unto.
