What is this law we are supposed to keep? It is that we are supposed to be nice. Not righteous, nice. We are to accept any behaviour, no matter how degenerate, and we are not to deal with this. If you break this rule, you will be un-personed, called a troll, insulted. The opening quote is from a social activist and note one thing: she chose to be in that place willingly.
And survived. She was corrected and confronted: by Roosh — subverted by Milo. But unharmed. For both are Catholic gentlemen. Something she is not used to dealing with. She is used to dealing with Churchians, who work by the law of the nice.
Tolerance of Evil may be nice, but it is still evil.
The key distinction, at this convention and among the petty demagogues here assembled, is between the attention hustlers—the pure troll howlers who play this grotesque game for its own sake and their own—and the true believers. Roosh is a true believer, and that puts him at a disadvantage.
Roosh means what he’s saying, but he’s still aware that he’s playing a game?—?the same game almost everyone in this crucible of A-list internet con-men is playing. It’s the game of turning raw rage into political currency, the unscrupulous whorebaggery of the troll gone pro. These are people who cashed in their limited principles to cheat at poker. Milo is the best player here. Like Trump, and like a lot of successful politicians in this postmodern circus, they channel their own narcissism to give voice to the wordless, formless rage of the people neoliberalism left behind. They offer new win conditions for the humiliated masses. Welcome to the scream room. There’s a cheese plate.
I run into a British writer from the Spectator, a moderate right-wing magazine, who takes the opportunity to apologise for being mean to me on the internet. He thought that was just how you’re supposed to do Twitter. We become, briefly, allies on foreign soil. A certain school of spiteful camaraderie, of bloodless political jousting before dinner, has long been the form of political discourse in Britain, where the mainstream media is dominated by private school graduates who were trained to debate as if it were a bloodsport in which empathy is a handicap. London media wonks routinely treat one another as sparring partners and drinking buddies despite their political differences: after all, aren’t we all on the same team really? Aren’t we playing the same game?
I have never understood this game. That’s why I’ve always refused to debate Milo in public. Not because I’m frightened I’ll lose, but because I know I’ll lose, because I care and he doesn’t—and that means he’s already won. Help and forgive me, but I actually believe human beings can be better than this.
If we be nice and deny Christ, we are stupid. As the Galatians were.
1You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly exhibited as crucified! 2The only thing I want to learn from you is this: Did you receive the Spirit by doing the works of the law or by believing what you heard? 3Are you so foolish? Having started with the Spirit, are you now ending with the flesh? 4Did you experience so much for nothing? — if it really was for nothing. 5Well then, does God supply you with the Spirit and work miracles among you by your doing the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard?
6Just as Abraham “believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness,” 7so, you see, those who believe are the descendants of Abraham. 8And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, declared the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “All the Gentiles shall be blessed in you.” 9For this reason, those who believe are blessed with Abraham who believed.
10For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the things written in the book of the law.” 11Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law; for “The one who is righteous will live by faith.” 12But the law does not rest on faith; on the contrary, “Whoever does the works of the law will live by them.” 13Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us — for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree” — 14in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
There is depth here. Christ took our curse, and the means of his execution cursed him. Yet he was righteous, keeping the law while alive: his execution was a political act, and justice had nothing to do with it. We live by faith, and if we try to justify ourselves by any law or holiness spiral or virtue signalling we damn ourselves.
At this is precisely what the Left is doing. They want us to be nice, and if we are not completely with it is now not sufficient to no platform and disemploy: they want to beat us up.
Spencer is, of course, not a Nazi. But that doesn’t matter. Frank Luntz, who can only be described as the most flaccidly moderate centrist on Earth, was attacked outside his D.C. hotel on Saturday for being a “fascist.”
So let me be very clear: every single person to the right of Frank Fucking Luntz is now considered a Nazi. That means you.
And if you think lefties would stop there; if you think they will cheer the first punch and not the 9th and 10th that leave you brain damaged; if you think they will draw the moral line somewhere after beating the shit out of you but somewhere before killing you; you are wrong.
And your death will be cheered on Twitter. And the people who dare claim that your murder was wrong will be chastised. Because you are a Nazi.
They dehumanize and unperson us for this very purpose; so they can treat us like sub humans.
It is time to be rude. Christ whipped the banksters out of the temple: we need to do the same thing to the left who have infiltrated. It is not time to be polite. It is time to do good, yes and to glorify God, yes.
And in doing so bear witness to Christ.
For the virtue signalling of 2016 has led to the riots of 2017. Do not that path follow.

1. Milo has a wonderful video of why the Catholic church is correct. And Roosh continues to talk about faith, was raised a papist, and is returning to it. I see them co founding a new Augustinian order by the time they make 50.
I don’t think it’s wise to consider Roosh as a Christian Man. I know several years ago he literally wrote books about his escapades in other countries, about fornicating with their woman. He even wrote books to help other men commit the same.
He was raised Catholic, degenerated, and the question is if he has repented. The same applies to Milo
The reason I don’t buy his return to Christian roots is he hasn’t shown true repentance. Even in his banner and much of his works in the public eye, he refers to his past actions. I may not have personally done all the research about him, but I haven’t seen one iota of him saying “my previous actions were wrong, and I have mistakenly led many astray.”. No, even worse than that, his website even has the books within its banner. He’s still, in a way, promoting them.
I’ve read your blog for a long time. Do his actions truly speak repentance to you? From what you’ve written about repentance, if Roosh truly had some, he would’ve come out and identified his past actions as terrible acts. He would’ve apologized to those he led astray. He would not bring up or promote his books outside of Godly sorrow. Whatever his motives may now be, I don’t see any forms of true repentance from his works.
I pray he is getting there. He is now bored of playing the pick up game and he is turning back to the church. Let us pray they both find Christ. I’m not joking when I say I see them both in a monastery by age 50
