Wank Dad 2: Electric Wankaloo

Assimilate is my cousin and I was the one who invited him to this forum.

ban both of them

Assimilate is my cousin and I was the one who invited him to this forum.

That is definitely sequel territory, have to save the dad reveal for the capstone.

[Mandark]

Listen, if we're going to be posting Todd Rundgren...

[shosta]

It's not true, but you two believed it for a second, huh?

[Mandark]

Reminder: Assimilate does not actually believe JP can divine the secret meanings of existence by reading bedtime stories, so no need to argue with him like he does.

[agrajag]

It's not true, but you two believed it for a second, huh?

I don't believe anything you say

[Nola]

It's not true, but you two believed it for a second, huh?

Even if only sharing like 10% of your DNA, no way the audience could buy Shosta and Assimilate being of that close of a genetic tree. That's why the sequel would end up a disappointment and a mess.

Thats why you'd have to make up for it in the third film and ground the twists in more obvious believability. Optimus = Assimilate, I could maybe buy it.

[benjipwns]

Assimilate, what is your greates achievment?

cleaning his room*

*launch date: TBA

[kingv]

That makes me think of a funny part about Daddy P's crusade, and it was mentioned in the Dave Rubin fills other peoples water glasses part I watched, how he's helping people and how people come up to him or whoever and say "I got my life together, etc."

Daddy P never examines it from a clinical psychologist perspective as to what exactly he's perhaps unintentionally providing these people with that he has such an effect on them, instead he ignores that path entirely to see it as further justification to pursue his political jeremiad.

I kind of think him as like the new Mystery! or one of those other pickup artist guys. Like, they have so me good advice, but the good advice is actually really really simple, and they hide it behind a bunch of ridiculous bullshit to explain it.

Like “clean your room”, “have some self respect”, and “stop acting like such a pussy” is not bad advice, but this cuckolded dragon and flaccid king shit is just there to dress up the fact he’s giving you a dad talk telling you to get your head out of your ass.

Similarly, you’ll find dudes who will tell you that being a PUA changed their life... most of the advice is dumb, but wash your ass, try to dress yourself in a way that looks nice... or is at least interesting, and talk to a lot of chicks ends up being pretty good advice for a 25 year old that’s never kissed a girl but wants to.

[Mandark]

A lot of self-actualization material is a mix of obvious but constructive advice on one hand and the author's own pet theories and obsessions on the other.

If the Marvel No-Prize was actually a real thing I'd win.  Just saying.  You other guys would lose.  I'd win.

Cultural Marxists strike again just as Daddy P warned us: https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/07/library-association-removes-laura-ingalls-wilder-from-book-award/

Politically correct radicals are now beating up on Laura Ingalls Wilder, the author of the beloved “Little House on the Prairie” children’s books, which inspired a long-running TV series starring Michael Landon that ran from 1974 to 1983.

The Association of Library Services for Children, a part of the larger American Library Association, has unanimously voted to strip Wilder’s name from a prestigious book award it has given since 1954. The reason? “Wilder’s legacy, as represented by her body of work, includes expressions of stereotypical attitudes inconsistent with ALSC’s core values of inclusiveness, integrity and respect, and responsiveness.”

To its horror the group notes that Wilder’s novels include “statements by white characters portraying Native Americans as dirty, lazy, and dangerous.”

The example that almost every Wilder critic cites is this passage in book she wrote in 1935:

There the wild animals wandered and fed as though they were in a pasture that stretched much farther than a man could see, and there were no people. Only Indians lived there.

Every other example simply reports on the attitudes of one character or another on Native Americans.

What the critics often don’t note is that Wilder was mortified when, before her death in 1957, a reader pointed out the passage to her. Wilder promptly wrote her publisher:

You are perfectly right about the fault in Little House on the Prairie and have my permission to make the correction as you suggest. It was a stupid blunder of mine. Of course Indians are people and I did not intend to imply they were not.

The word “people,” was replaced with the word “settler.”

But despite the memories of Mrs. Scott and the hostility of the character Ma in the books, there are other voices taking the other side. Pa, for instance, is sympathetic to the Indians. They “would be as peaceable as anybody else if they were let alone.” Pa says. “On the other hand, they had been moved west so many times that naturally they hated white folks.”

Wilder’s characters frequently debate what stance the settlers should take toward the tribes, and they often provide valuable context that puts the discrimination shown against Native Americans into perspective.

But we know the real reason is that these librarians are striking out in anger at her daughter (and sometimes suspected author) libertarian Rose Wilder Lane due to their hatred of freedom and desire to impose a brutal anti-masculine lifestyle as seen in most progressive cities.

Wank Dad 2 is pretty disappointing, to be honest. Different protagonist who isn't as good, a tired retread of the previous storyline, meandering subplots that don't go anywhere. And it doesn't really add anything to the extended universe. 2 out of 5 stars.

"My gerbil could write a better screenplay."

Assy McGee should be barred from posting again until he reads one of JP's books and then writes us a 2000-word book report.

I've already told you this. Ban him for every post in this thread a day until he comes back (since he'll have SO MUCH FREE TIME to actually read a 46-page goddamn book) and then tells us what it's about.

[thisismyusername]

Yes, but I want the book report from Assy McGee.

[benjipwns]

We already know what it's about: The Cold War and how to fix it with chaos dragons. And the Cold War ended, and we have to assume that Peterson was responsible.

The only time i've seen Peterson laugh or crack a smile more than once was when he was being interviewed by Jim Jefferies.

It shows the power of Jefferies, really.

https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/sexist-men-sex-women-attracted-relationship-benevolent-sexism-a8429061.html

Women are more attracted to potential mates who have a “benevolent sexism” trait - despite the “detrimental effects” of these attitudes on women, a new study says.

The study, published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin by Pelin Gul from Iowa State University and Tom Kupfer from the University of Kent, built on previous definitions that psychologists have used to categorise sexism into two categories - hostile sexism (HS) and benevolent sexism (BS).

According to the definitions, hostile sexism refers to the sexism that is negative in nature and fits the “classic definition of prejudice.”

Benevolent sexism, however, is sexism which views women in a stereotypical way with restricted roles which tends to “elicit behaviours typically categorised as prosocial,” according to psychologists.

Examples of BS include thinking of women as homemakers, or being gentle and nurturing.   

In the new study, researchers concluded that women are actually attracted to mates with benevolent sexism attitudes as the behaviours signal that a man is “willing to invest.”

However, from a feminist standpoint, the study itself raises many concerns; Harriet Minter, a broadcaster, women’s rights journalist, and host of Badass Women’s Hour told The Independent: “The reality is that there’s nothing ‘benevolent’ about sexism. Sexism, like every other -ism, is based on power and reinforcing the dominant partner’s status. So ‘benevolent sexism’ is, to me, a contradiction in terms."

...

Despite the findings of the authors - that benevolent sexism attitudes make men appear capable of providing and protecting - Minter does not believe referring to such actions as “benevolent sexism” justifies the behaviour.

“If anything it just adds to the patronising, patriarchal narrative that still exists around men and women's interactions,” she told us. “You don't buy someone dinner because you're being benevolent, you do it because you care about them and want to treat them, regardless of their gender, regardless of whether you're in a romantic relationship and, most importantly, with no assumption as to what this means about your status in comparison to each other.

“Sexism exists when one party assumes their gender gives them a higher or more special status than the other person, if you're acting in a certain way towards a woman because you think it is your duty as a man rather than simply your duty as a human, then there is a level of sexism there.”

Harriet Minter has never taught at Harvard.

No wonder my wife won’t agree to go to work while I stay home and cook and play video games.

Not sure what the push to make sure women can work as much as you. "look my wife works 60 hours a week" how fucking woke of you and i'm sure she looks super swell to.

So Jordan Peterson also spoke at the Oxford Union as well as Dave Rubin. So you do get a Wank Dad video after all.
