Kinship societies are often fairly zero sum <br /><br />Still they have been pissing off the elite since probably Rome and with the upcoming implosion, they might be worth considering.abprospernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-60357641239195166922014-03-11T04:57:56.147-07:002014-03-11T04:57:56.147-07:00Or you could just read the Koran to find eternal t...Or you could just read the Koran to find eternal truths Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-40026867683422605792014-03-10T20:26:56.008-07:002014-03-10T20:26:56.008-07:00In the words of the immortal Samuel L.

Traditional nuclear family, foreign-born stay-at-home mom, well educated, relatively stable sea captain for a father. So my kid is smart, humble, a worker, and willing to argue when he believes he's correct. Am I bragging? Damn right I am. I get phone calls, emails, etc- my boy doesn't want to work on group projects, he argues, he corrects the teacher, he misses school for religious holidays, etc. Teaching critical thinking skills will prevent kids from becoming servants. A child's healthy ego is born of a healthy parental marriage. This is stuff your grandma told you, and yet we're told it's not so.<br /><br /> So, yeah, this is the truth industry- the thousand little voices that make up our little counterculture are united by the wise use of critical thinking skills- but as a whole, there is little in the manosphere that directly deals with how to go about doing exactly that. There's a niche that badly needs filling there. <br />Paul, Dammit!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02264872375942355609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-53701960170426278112014-03-10T09:56:16.076-07:002014-03-10T09:56:16.076-07:00Cap,
