The Extreme Male Brain and the Extremist Male Brain.Culta devisa est in partes tres.

 

 Over-correcting self-lefteousness.

 

                   Compensates for empathy deficit  by becoming a social justice warrior.
 

According to the extreme-male brain theory by nature males are in a kind of Yin/Yang manner less easily side tracked by empathy.  When there were fewer than 8 billion of us this was not the inconvenience it has since for some become.

 

Females, by nature designed to nurture, are natural empaths. The three ways to go off the rails as hyper-males are our old friends, the autistics, the narcissists, and the psychopaths. All the antitheses of our female friends.

 

Now imagine a scenario where the Earth has gotten crowded. Say there's a tipping point, maybe as a random amount choose 8 billion.  Beyond which there are fewer wild wests where to seek one's fortune. Not as many "colonies" for the second son to go along and adventure on one's hero's journey amid. Imperialism (and imperiousness) becomes a romantic thing of the past. Living in the now:

 

The hyper-male bumps up in less than fraternal adelphia against one's reflected self in the persons of others hyper-as-well. Having babies necessitates empaths, such as "Mother-things," in the Have Space-suit--Will Travel sense.  

 

Soon the very superfluity of one's counterparts in the aggregate inspires, maybe more easily, doubling down, being more male than thou:  the man-o-sphere. Or more rationally, on second thought, in a winner take all Darwin Economy scenario, compensating.

 

A new cult gains a following. Drawing, paraphrasing Caesar's saying Gallia divisa est in partes tres: 

 

a)  autistics

 

b) narcissists

 

c)  psychopaths 

 

 ... who are drawn like fruit flies to a banana.  Like time flies to an old codger remembering the good old days so ephemeral yet still so vivid within, as if only this morning, remembered more exactly than though.

 

Imagine a cult whose very nature, by its very nature attracted these types in equal or unequal measure.. 

 

And very few others.

 

A few old cranks, Charles Pezeshki, James Howard Kunstler, one of the Misters Yang, all painted as infected with the dread boomer "brain rot" have imagined as much.

The (Judith) Butler did it: Hoag's Hoax yet again.

Image
    "Sometimes all of our Thoughts are misgiven."       The peculiar theories of Judith Butler are based on a misinterpretation of what one might call synecdochally, " Schrödinger's Cat " ...   The link is to a short  video of the infamous "Ames Window," which like  Schrödinger's Cat is not to be taken at face value. It is a quirk of our viewpoint, of our evolutionary psychology, of our own perspective, not of the reality behind appearances.   The science fiction trope of "an indeterminate quantum fog" as philosophized on by such gigantic invertebrates of philosophy as Slavoj Žižek  has led us to the dead end of applied "social construction" theory. Misapplied to be the absolutely very least bit precise.   This amorphous nebulous Debussyan fog is where  (Judith) Butler makes/takes/gives/ misgives , her stand.   Where "they" make "their" stand as "they" would have it. The full book is here .    Ot...

Root Orange Ouroboros Theory.

Image
      Inexplicably the Trump phenomenon seemed to vomit itself into existence out of nothing, but Root Orange Ouroboros Theory is an idea that it was actually flying under the radar with a weaponized stealth issue kept in peripheral vision by distractions and constant deployment of so-called "orange herrings," red herrings as decoys, and "dog-whistles" so-called. For example the fashionable twitter "statue PfPs," and enigmatic ambiguously interpretable allusions to 'saving Western Civilization.'    To lay it all out, what lay underneath, the essence, or root of the orange ouroboros was a simple set of axioms, presumed to be self-evident. To the extent that they resonated, they helped conjure the unlikely fruit into existence like "clockwork," so to speak:   a) There ain't no such thing as a they/them.   b)  Nobody was "born in the wrong body."   c) The belief that one can be or that oneself is, is a mental illness.   d) T...
