Feminists @JaclynF, @PennyRed, @AmandaMarcotte know you fear them!

The blogger at Dark Brightness has a post describing the “politicization of phobia” as a Nigerian email scam. He links me — thanks! — and also links Vox Day quoting Jack Donovan:

Progressives only have one good trick, and men keep falling for it.

They keep calling you a coward, so that you’ll do or say whatever they want to prove that you are not a coward.

If they want you to accept a group of outsiders, they call you a xenophobe to dismiss any rational concerns you might have about the motivations of strangers. . . .

If you reject any demand made by any woman, you’re “just afraid of a strong woman.” This accusation has been repeated so many times that a substantial portion of the population actually seems to believe that men are at the very core of their being constitutionally terrified by any woman with “attitude.” . . .

You can read the whole thing. The claim that critics of feminism are afraid of “strong women” is as easy to disprove as this: Have you ever met my wife? Or, have you ever seen my wife angry? Trust me, you don’t want to see her angry. Yet my wife is also cheerful, kind-hearted and generous, whereas feminists are resentful, cruel and selfish — they are simply bad people, which is why everybody hates feminism. It is a shabby hustle, a three-card monte game, for unhappy women to claim that their anti-social personality traits are actually virtues.

Feminists routinely engage in moral reversals, psychological projections, and self-serving rationalizations. The woman whose hostile, domineering, my-way-or-the-highway attitude makes her unpopular — she had few friends in childhood and, as an adult, is often alienated from her parents and siblings — resorts to the flattering rationalization that she is “strong,” and that others are envious or fearful of her strength. Similarly, a feminist will rationalize her promiscuity as “empowering” and claim that anyone who disapproves of such whorishness is envious or fearful of women’s sexual power. Perhaps the greatest of these fraudulent tropes, however, is the feminist’s claim that her membership in an identity-politics groupthink mob — the True Believer in a Mass Movement rigidly defined by a collectivist ideology — proves how independent-minded she is! What is most insulting about feminist tactics (which very much resemble DARVO Syndrome) is their arrogant assumption that the rest of us are so stupid we can’t see through their bogus intellectual three-card monte hustle.

And @AmandaMarcotte is part of a continuum of angry women who latch onto abortion as an excuse to rage at men. pic.twitter.com/NYilhdJ1Ag — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) November 30, 2015

An experimental suggestion: Go on Twitter and send a link to this post to a prominent feminist — Jaclyn Friedman, Laurie Penny, Amanda Marcotte, et al. — and ask her to respond to it. Does she deny that the feminist movement is a three-card monte hustle wherein unhappy women use reversals, projections and rationalizations to explain their own misery, to justify their own anti-social traits and to excuse their own failures by shifting blame to others? In other words, impugn her motives, just as feminists do to their critics — whom they invariably accuse of “misogyny” and other such Thought Crimes — and see if she is willing and able to defend herself against accusations of intellectual fraud.

Good luck with your experiment. After the feminist blocks you on Twitter, you might try logging out of your account and checking her timeline to see if she’s complaining about “harassment,” which is a feminist synonym for criticism. Feminism is always a lecture and never a dialogue. The feminist is a totalitarian, who is never willing to debate her critics, but instead always seeks to silence her critics.

It is entirely rational to fear feminism, as anyone must fear the sound of jackboots marching through streets covered in broken glass.

To truly understand feminism, begin by reading Eric Hoffer's classic on totalitarian psychology, THE TRUE BELIEVER. https://t.co/W2AiiVSOHq — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) November 30, 2015

Abortion is evil. Planned Parenthood is a wicked organization, and all its supporters are wrong. #tcot #prolife — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) November 30, 2015

Why are feminist leaders such awful people? F.A. Hayek explains this in Chapter 10: "Why the Worst Get on Top." https://t.co/PpF05NhEkI — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) November 30, 2015

Opposition to feminism is not a result of ignorance, but of knowledge, arising not from an irrational “phobia,” but from an understanding of what deceitful monsters feminists truly are.
