if I'm using too much figurative speech, let me know

Most of the guys here aren't divorced are anything. I guess you can owe to Karen Straughan and my knowledge of Darwinism that I came across as a kid.

yea theres a lot of people who can read others mistakes and avoid them. I am not one of those people. I need to feel the pain of touching the hot stove to really avoid it like the others

You're not alone on that, most guys are like that.

Yea its more of a personality difference

most people... period

some component of arrogance comes in mind "I'm the exception bacause I'm ME"

Well for me like i read some mgtow/red pill stuff when i was blue pilled in my last relationship and i just dismissed it all. None of it all clicked emotionally at that time. But after the breakup mgtow is clear as day

while some self motivating delusion is healthy, too much of it is just as bad

What sort of clicked for me IRL was the shaming tactics, the constant berating that my mother does, the whole "Act like a man" crap.

Her whining and the MSM are the ones that got me into the manosphere (MRM at first) then into MGTOW.

i'm lucky in that regard.

Who here is familiar with Starship troopers?

Who hasn't seen it tbh.

good

is funny, I was playing with the same concepts for my own book before I knew of this movie

the concept that that voting should be gained through some kind of service

You were considered a civilian unless you served the Mobile Infantry to earn your citizenship.

yup

It wasnt just the Infantry. Military service granted automatic citizenship, provided you made the cut and completed basic training along with your occupational speciality. There is also federal service in public office working for the government in a non military capacity- but selection is based on merit, not connections and likely didnt carry automatic citizenship like military service did.

So.. let's say I'm a chemist who spent 6 years learning after basic training would I be pincer fodder?

or would I end up in another palce?

You'd be in Intel

good

it would be waste to be pincer fodder

Save that for the grunts lul

_nods ominously_

Ever watch the old animated series? Was my jam as a kid
