When someone drives 250 km\/h on a wet highway, loses control and gets killed, he\u2019s the victim of the whole situation, but it\u2019s all his fault. He\u2019s the only one to blame.<\/p>\n
When someone invests his life savings in volatile, high-risk stock, and gets wiped out, he\u2019s the victim, but he\u2019s also the one to blame.<\/p>\n
When someone builds his home on a potential mudslide area, or by a volcano, or on a tectonically active area, or in a potential flood zone, and the event he was betting against takes place and his property gets wiped out, he\u2019s definitely the victim, but he\u2019s also the one to blame, because he played a game with high stakes, he knew what he was getting himself into, and he lost.<\/p>\n
When someone makes a life choice to sell his house, gamble and drink away the money, and ends up on the street, he\u2019s the victim, but he\u2019s the kind of victim you show your children and tell them not to be like that guy, because that guy caused his own misfortune.<\/p>\n
Sure, there are situations where someone gets hit by a random event that wipes him out, like the Spanish influenza or a world war or a stock market crash or something else that adversely affects him despite all the valid precautions he had taken. In those situations, victims deserve compassion and help. However, victims are often to blame. More often than not, to be a victim means you played a game with high stakes and lost. More often than not, being a victim means you\u2019re a loser and an idiot. You don\u2019t deserve compassion, you deserve ridicule. That\u2019s how we get social pressure that discourages people from doing stupid shit, and encourages rationality, caution and long-term, low-risk behavior.<\/p>\n
Why, then, is the term \u201cvictim blaming\u201d a thing? It is supposed to be automatic discreditation of the one who engages in the practice, because, somehow, the victims are automatically amnestied of all fault. They are the unblemished lambs of God, pure of all sin. If you\u2019re a victim, you not only deserve compassion, you are somehow elevated in social status to the point of untouchable virtuous elite, that has the high moral ground and is entitled to demand change in society.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s that recent thing about sexual abuse in Hollywood. Here\u2019s my take on this.<\/p>\n
There are women who are desperate to make it in the movie industry. They would do anything to be noticed by the powerful people, and so they try to attend the right parties, hysterically laugh at the not-so-funny jokes in order to get noticed, they try to suck up in order to be liked, they mingle with the \u201cright crowd\u201d, and more often than not they sleep around with everyone whom they see as a stepping stone in their career. They are, essentially, sluts and whores who would fuck anyone if that would get them a role in some movie. Those sluts and whores have an additional effect of getting the powerful people used to being constantly assailed by people who offer them all kinds of sex, and soon they basically expect everyone to act like that, and, occasionally, they encounter someone who doesn\u2019t function like that and then you end up with something that gets interpreted as sexual abuse. When 99% of the people you encounter will suck your cock as soon as you drop your pants with little or no invitation, you get used to dropping your pants on a whim and getting your cock sucked by someone who considers herself lucky for the opportunity. Sure, every now and then you have an awkward situation where\u00a0 you drop your pants in front of someone normal and she runs away screaming, but the craziest thing is, when a guy like that ends up accused of sexual molestation (usually with full justification), all the sluts and whores who were standing in line for a chance to suck him dry while powdering their noses with his cocaine are now raising their voices to say \u201cme to\u201d, meaning they want to present themselves as victims, in order to get the societal compassion points and elevate themselves from the status of cheap trash to the status of pure, blameless victims.<\/p>\n
Victims are often to blame. Sometimes, they are not only to blame, they also deserve condemnation. Sometimes, victims are trash. And sometimes they actually go out of their way looking for trouble.<\/p>\n
Some time ago I read an article<\/a> about a woman in South Africa who accepted a guy\u2019s invitation to shower with him, \u201cbecause water in her shower was cold\u201d. And so, she got naked with him, in the hotel shower, presumably rubbing her wet soapy body against his \u201cby accident\u201d, and when he proceeded to fuck her, she took pictures of her crying face in the shower pretending to be a broken-hearted rape victim.<\/p>\n Nowadays it\u2019s modern to say that \u201cno means no\u201d, where a verbal \u201cno\u201d supposedly outweighs every amount of non-verbal signaling. It doesn\u2019t matter what you wear, what you do and what situations you get yourself into, if you say \u201cno\u201d and someone fucks you, it\u2019s rape.<\/p>\n Let me tell you something. If a guy says he\u2019s a saint, and he fucks whores, steals money and eats drugs like candy, what says more, his actions or his words? Oh really, his actions are more important?<\/p>\n Another example. A politician wants to be elected into office. He says all the stuff that\u2019s expected from politicians. Then, however, it turns out that he embezzled money, and spent it with a mistress cheating on his wife. What\u2019s more important, the facts that turned out, or his generic words?<\/p>\n Oh really, actions and facts are more important than words?<\/p>\n And we are supposed to believe that a woman\u2019s \u201cno\u201d is more important than the fact that she\u2019s sending very clear nonverbal \u201cyes\u201d signals, such as rubbing her soapy naked butt against a guy\u2019s dick in a hotel shower?<\/p>\n Nonverbal signals are important. When you see guys dressed like firemen on a fire truck, you assume they are firemen without anyone having to tell you. When you see two guys dressed like cops in a police car, you assume they are cops. When you see a woman dressed like a slut, you assume she\u2019s a slut. That\u2019s how things work, and that\u2019s why people wear certain clothes and symbols: they want to communicate their purpose and intent. Nobody really cares what a woman says in response to a man\u2019s sexual signals. If she slaps your face and leaves, it\u2019s a no. If she takes your dick in her hand and kisses you, it\u2019s a yes. That\u2019s how those things work. A woman can say \u201cno\u201d all the way to orgasm for all that I care, but if she\u2019s ramming her wet pussy on my cock while moaning \u201cno\u201d, I count that as a \u201cyes\u201d. She can also whisper \u201cJesus!\u201d, but I don\u2019t interpret that as prayer.<\/p>\n This \u201cno means no\u201d bullshit fucks with our instinctive understanding of nonverbal language in such a way that the only result I can imagine will be men completely avoiding contact with unreliable women, where \u201creliable\u201d are those who will have nothing to do with either feminism or progressivism or this entire modern bullshit altogether. Also, another thing that will happen is that the Muslims will take over, simply because the Western men will refuse die for the crazy, unpleasant, power-hungry women who think they can act like sluts and yet expect to be treated like ladies. No, they will play video games and all the feminists will end up in some Muslim slave market, where nobody will give the slightest bit of fuck about their \u201cno\u201d.<\/p>\n Another thing that annoys me is that when someone reasonably states that women often invite trouble with their risky or whorish behavior, such as getting drunk and naked with a few guys at a party and then waking up and realizing that they fucked her, or walking alone during the night in a poorly lit area, the response is something along the lines \u201cso you would dress women in burqas instead of teaching men not to rape?\u201d First of all, there is a lot of gray area in between dressing like a whore and wearing a burqa. And second, we\u2019ve been teaching people not to murder and steal for millennia and yet the prisons are always full. Obviously, a certain percentage of people doesn\u2019t care about the law and will gladly break it given the opportunity, so you need to take care you\u2019re not the one they break it on. When you\u2019ve been fucked by some guy in a dark alley by a corn field, you\u2019ll find out there\u2019s no law whatsoever that will prevent him from fucking you, given the opportunity. Sure, the law will work on getting him imprisoned if he\u2019s caught, but you\u2019ll still be fucked, so you need to get your shit together and not get yourself in situations where you\u2019ll be the victim. No, you don\u2019t need to wear a burqa, wear something normal, don\u2019t go alone into dark and deserted places, don\u2019t get so drunk or stoned you won\u2019t be able to communicate your wishes clearly, say “no” by physical actions such as walking away, and don\u2019t hang out with people who are clearly out of control, or are in other ways unreliable. Sure, you can do everything right and still be a victim. However, if that happens you will actually deserve help and compassion. If you do stupid shit and get wiped out, expect to be laughed at.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When someone drives 250 km\/h on a wet highway, loses control and gets killed, he\u2019s the victim of the whole situation, but it\u2019s all his fault.
