Attack Meritocracy, Reward Mediocrity

Two categories of people who tend to be picked on are people who underperform the group and those who outperform the group. People who are bullied can be nice people, but they can also be people who would have been bullies themselves if circumstances had broken their way.

There are plenty of well-performing narcissists in the world, but it appears as though there are even more underperforming ones. But then, with narcissists even being perceived of as average is considered by them to be a form of bullying since it means they won’t be getting the praise and attention they covet.

Wokeism is basically a movement of narcissists, so one of its features is a preoccupation with making these underperforming narcissists into some kind of victim class. What I have been seeing is contests rigged in favor of narcissists from a woke-created victim class. It is clear the contest is unfair in the eyes of the non-woke audience and participants. The chosen “winner” is not the best and/or isn’t even qualified to participate. But their winning achieves a victory for the narcissistic woke movement. It gives the narcissist their narcissistic supply of attention and praise — something they feel they have been unjustly deprived of. It also gives them the credibility of being declared the winner by people with the power and authority to bequeath the recognition — even if it obviously isn’t true. Those same power people can even punish the people who object to the unfairness of the narcissist’s adoration bash and refuse to participate.

Yes, you can’t be allowed to refuse to participate. You certainly aren’t allowed to have a contest where one of their own can’t be declared by them to be the winner. And the reason they can’t be declared the winner is because they simply are not qualified to win. No, all eyes must be on the narcissist — even if they’re scornful eyes. And the narcissist must also be able to revel in the defeated look on the rightful winner’s face as the narcissist gets their revenge for their own mediocrity by stealing the winner’s reward for themselves.

The Unthinkable

The Unthinkable

I have to wonder where this push that is being promoted by the WHO, the WEF, and the UN to sexualize children originally came from. Apparently, the idea that children are sexual beings stems from the writings of pedophiles from many years ago. But back then people had the sense not to talk about it publicly. What possible purpose does it serve to have children engage in sex acts before they can distinguish fantasy from reality on their own? When they are basically at the mercy of adults to tell them what reality is? And if the adults are lying to them, delusional, or invested in creating a reality they wish existed but doesn’t? What then? What happens to the children? I can’t even remember my life before the age of three. Now children are being groomed as babies for sexual exploitation. Plus, they are also now pushing for permanent physical and/or psychological changes to be made to these children.

In any event, I don’t believe the rush to sexualize children is for anyone’s benefit but the benefit of adult pedophiles. I don’t believe children are sexual beings, and I don’t see where children are benefited by forcing sexualization on them at an early age. Adults have enough trouble dealing with their sexuality. Linking the desperate need for love that a child has with the sexual exploitation tendency of a sexual predator is just a nauseating prospect to consider.

So, I think it’s important to consider the possibility that this whole movement of turning young boys into girls (which can’t be authentically done since human beings are not frogs) is really just a manipulation tool by a niche of pedophiles to create victims for themselves. There are a group of pedophiles whose preferred victims are boys who are made to pass as females then sexually exploited. So, it is very possible that the root of this phenomenon is merely an attempt by those perverts to gain access to America’s sons and use them as fodder for their perversions. And after these victims are exploited and emotionally destroyed, they will then throw these victims away when they age out of being attractive to them. To parents tempted to serve their children up to this horror show, at least consider the possibility that the narrative being pushed that the children want this is in fact a lie. And that these pedophiles are now merely sourcing the victims of their twisted predilections with our sons and daughter as they have been doing with children all over the world.

Tick Tock … What’s The Point of This Clock?

Tick Tock … What’s The Point of This Clock?

When I was in art school, there was a clock — just a generic one you could hang on the wall. It was low enough that anyone could reach it. I didn’t discover the time was off until I stayed after class to work on an assignment. Then, I headed to my next class. Only I heard the sound of the clock tower ringing while en route. The clock in my last class was five to ten minutes slow. How could this be? The time was then fixed on the clock the next day, and I assumed the problem was over. But, lo and behold, the clock ended up five to ten minutes slow again. The professor suggested that the clock might be winding down. I pointed out that clocks that are winding down don’t keep a consistent time. My theory was that someone was setting the clock backward intentionally, so that they would have extra time to arrive to class without being counted as late. Who cared how it affected the rest of us?

A girl in my class challenged me with the, “Why do you care so much?” argument. She was offended apparently by my desire for rules and structure — as so many people are. I pointed out to her that she had a class right after this one in which she told me had a strict tardiness policy. So, really, it affected her far more than me. But she was more offended by my attitude than by the actions of the person getting her into trouble. Because ironically our release time from class was being determined by the time on this clock that everyone now knew was faulty. The professor also didn’t seem to be bothered by the faulty clock. Once the onetime reset was done, nothing further was attempted to fix the problem. And yet, he still insisted on having us be in class “on time,” or we’d be counted as absent. He also continued to release us from class “on time” — all based on the faulty clock.

What I learned from this experience is that some people really hate rules and standards applied to themselves. And they are more invested in shutting down people who have standards than in their own best interests. Yet, those same people don’t mind insisting that other people be made to live under their rules and standards.

Eventually, I just relied on my watch. I could afford to be released late. If people who couldn’t afford to be released late would rather see my quest for consistency and standards fail than fix the problem, so be it. But really, what is the point of a clock with the wrong time?

You Don’t Have the Right to Refuse to Have a Relationship with Certain People

Posted in Thoughts of the Day, tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on May 27, 2024| Leave a Comment »

One of the things I’ve noticed lately is that about the only people you can’t deny having a relationship with are psychopaths. If they want you or want what you have, that’s it apparently. And really, it’s counterintuitive but it seems as though the worse a person treats you, the more you’re obligated to relate to them. Part of it is people’s warped idea of the concept of forgiveness — which in this case is more like masochism. You can forgive people from afar. You don’t have to have or start a relationship with them. Not only are there a lot of unrepentant people in the world who have no intention of changing their behavior, who continue to feel entitled to having their will at other people’s expense and are all too willing to use violence or the threat of violence in order to have their way, there’s also the loss of trust and post-traumatic stress to consider. Sometimes the damage to a relationship is far too great to recover from.

But the sympathy rarely goes to the victim of abuse. The perpetrator is allowed to be angry. But as the victim, if you’re angry you’re the problem. You’re a worse person than the perpetrator because you won’t forgive — which really has been redefined by our society to be the same as reconcile. And if you have to be angry as a self-defense mechanism, people take for granted that you have other feelings, too. You are hurt; you are grieving; you possibly loved this person. You’re afraid.

But in a way it makes sense. Psychopaths and malignant narcissists would rather just be themselves without having to put on a show. They want to treat people however they please without those people running away from them. And what better way to get someone to keep taking their abuse than to convince them that they don’t have the right to reject them?

In the end, you’re not supposed to focus on how your abuser treats you but rather how they feel. And how they feel is apparently a justification for whatever they do.
