Walt Bismarck is more than a person. He is a medium in and of itself, and through that medium, a message to the world. A spectacle of psychic consciousness that avails himself to those who are willing.

Adderall to Bismark = weed to Bob Marley. Symbiotic chemical muse. If Marley had quit weed it would have been a robbery to the world

> something incredibly peculiar about high status white women, which is that they don’t really like it when you spend money on them

I think what you're seeing there is a discrepancy in status signalling as to how much is appropriate - and the bar is set a couple orders of magnitude higher, if they're expecting jewelry and vacations to Cancun as their bar for "being spoiled" rather than (err, in addition to) roses and a nice dinner out. There's a reason the WASP stereotype gift is "tennis bracelet" and tbf I did not understand this as a young man even when I landed at a college where quite a number of people were of that exact social structure.

This rings so true, and so bleak.

I don’t see anything changing until the tire barricades are burning in the streets, the lights have gone out and we’re eating our pets to stay alive another day. Until elite women are forced by necessity to recall their biological attraction to masculine men and ideals, and give sway to them.

A lot of your ideas are very smart and worth engaging with but I feel implored to analyze this more like a damn postmodern poem than a think piece because of all these chronically online psuedo-buzzwords and meandering around any semblance of a structured argument. At least in the first half, stopped reading after that.

It's not really aimed at us, unfortunately.

I do kind of wonder if the women he's aiming it at will actually get what he's saying. We'll wait and see.

I realize this may sound very harsh but don’t take it that way. I’ll finish the piece because again, ideas are good. But they’re almost too good for me not to leave this frustrated criticism

I....don't get why? like it's cool that you want to sympathize and analyze insufferable spoiled art hoes but why does your life needs to gear around them? as i said, an escort can provide twice the "magic" of analysis and none of the problems you complain about. I'm not joking when i say an escort would literally solve all your problems. But yeah i do get that you are a person that needs struggle to survive, i just found myself tired of these games and opted for the easier approach (a.k,a paying women to fuck me), and i never looked back. If you're in it for the drama there is plenty of it in the Escort Business...

You say that Redpill is low status and must be kept hidden to be effective (which is absolutely true, see rule #1: STFU) but isn’t that the equivalent of plausible deniability on the other side? The most effective technology is indistinguishable from magic. Women magically manipulate men. Gifted leaders magically manipulate their underlings into spontaneously coming up with plans and ideas that have already been decided. Men magically become irresistible when they deploy frame and dread.

The most effective plausible deniability of all is high status women controlling powerful men while appearing submissive. Bene Gesserit shit. The cloak of the other world, of opaque technologies of control, is the plausible deniability keeping the giant rackets of “civilization” humming along. My question: are there men (gays?) controlling the highest-status women?

> For centuries the Abrahamic faiths buried this understanding out of a Manichean urge to obliterate the Dark Feminine. Judaism cognitively transformed women into men while Christianity made them children and Islam reduced them to livestock

Honestly kinda false here.

Pagan Roman Empire was way, way more misogynistic than Christianity tbh - those "They abort / abandon female babies" stories were real. Male-female ratio during Roman Empire was 3 male per 2 female because if you have more than 1 female it's a burden -> abort / abandon the baby immediately. Those abandoned babies were taken by Christians. There's a reason so many early Christians were women.

But whatevs

This was a very fun article. I’m trad adjacent (raised to be normie con but defected to taking Catholicism seriously probably only because the internet exists) so not sure if I’m welcome but I do see the draw to the postmodern stuff because it’s quite fun. This article made me laugh and think hard. As for the high status white girls getting their due, it’s been extremely satisfying to watch. They had it good for so long because all the men who could have reigned them in were either too enamored by their gains in the sexual revolution or too dumb to be considered in the game (evangelicals) so they all got to LARP like Carrie Bradshaw for a good 2 generations. I do think natural law always wins though and once the Church gets its ducks in a row and goes through a Rocky style training montage, it will have solved the women question solved by bringing back real patriarchy which will make it extremely powerful again even with strong AI.

Sell the entirety of all the social & sexual dynamics stuff he knows in a book and serialized videos.

Thing is academia and policymaker HAS to know what he knows because the alternative is they keep making braindead policies.

Moreover, his idea is necessary to burn down academia longhouse.

I suddenly remembered that scene from the film Overboard, in which Kurt Russell delivers an epic rant to Goldie Hawn - the one that begins with, “You’re so goddam bored, you’ve gotta invent things to bitch about!”

This is a fantastic schizo-post. In hind-sight, red-pill podcasts exist to provide catharsis to the chronically red-pilled through watching women writhe under the harsh light. I think that's the end of the Faustian deal. Karen memes and red-pill podcasts are only going to grow. All of this complexity that can only exist in dim torchlight will be sanitized by harsh light, and replaced with some new game.

Walt Bismarck’s plausibly deniable call to utterly nuke modernity to save AWFLs from themselves. Now this is advanced White Knighting!!

On a more serious note, this is absolutely incredible and enunciates many things I have both seen and experienced. This on its own completely vindicates my decision to overlook the annoying Walt tendencies. It also has MASSIVE explanatory power. It would worth exploring further if it unfortunately did not have “Hannibal Lecter peeling back the labia” vibes. We’ll have to see how the cookie crumbles

Anyway, for my two cents, the only plausible solutions I see to this problem being solved is either:

1. Total Incel Revolt

Probability: Utterly Unlikely

The current intersection of deep Spenglerian Winter with unforeseen technological advancements(p*rn/AI/insane material QoL due to globalism etc.) make this a Quixotic cope pipe dream. Losers lose, that’s what they do, and with the cards stacked as they are against them, incels have no chance of even organising, let alone winning.

2. Systemic Technological Collapse

Probability: Rather unlikely

Just like the calls of civil war and civilisational collapse, it seems just around the corner but never arrives. Like ICR, it’s a Quixotic pipe-dream because to happen within our lifetimes it requires organised resistance, the only thing or police state can/will decisive crush. If 1, 3 or 4 don’t happen it will eventually happen, but I wouldn’t hold my breathe to expect to happen to in my lifetime (I’m in my early 20s) because

whilst women, like Africans, can’t maintain technical infrastructure, inertia and retarded Delta men will always choose the crumbs of attention rather than biting the hand. Sorry Kaczynski bros!

3. Barbarian-induced Societal Collapse

Probability: Just as unlikely as STC

Systemic integration through globalisation has introduced hypermodernity into the global south/Third world. This will on a civilisational time-scale (i.e a couple to half dozen generations) utterly one-shot them. Immigrants will become gooners and Deliveroo drivers not Vandals.

4. Complete Theological Takeover

Probability: most likely imo

Synthesising Caesarism/Carlylean Great Man

with Duttonite religious repopulation theory (libs don’t breed and therefore become an evolutionary dead end). The still standing civilisations will collectively realise Unwin’s ‘Sex and Culture’ thesis and throw the entire Other World - women, gays and all other degens - into the deepest darkest closet ever seen. I don’t know if it is possible through social/cultural methods due to biological imperatives, but if it fails it would most likely to trigger 1-3, since the apparatus keeping the current environment in place would be mainly gone.

In conclusion, it’s grim out there. Ride the tiger bros and see if you can survive!

Though, FWIW, what you are really talking about isn't quite the "tippity top", but rather the ones who can see it from where they're sitting. There's a charred curling back on "goodness" itself that comes with the last scramble to the top that selects for what is, for better or worse, the most psychopathic behaviors. Can't believe I'm doing this.

Triple kill for Walt:

I spent quite a bit of time mewling among the real Southern aristocracy-- that's a set of women who are so serenely esconced on their throne that a wraparound to genuine altruism is possible. They will make you feel so good that you'll do the "cat whos been scratched too long" thing and sink your teeth in them, and they'll even seem to understand *that*.

Right *below* them, though. In the generally successfully upwardly mobile crowd, that's where you find the dark mirrors-- the *most ruthlessly effective* of the dark mirrors...along with, of course, the generally more emotionally sensitive men who are also there for their own set of reasons. Men and women get there for different reasons and it makes an odd mismatch.
