When men want women on this kind of basic animalistic, just life level, to reproduce. Right? So the most obvious way to distribute women is to give all the women to the strongest man. Right? So you get — reproduce from the strongest person. That’s the way gorillas — many gorillas, silverbacks live. The one guy gets all the girls. And the problem with that is it sounds like a good idea, but it’s unstable because, obviously, all the other guys finally get think to themselves, oh, I know what we’ll do. We’ll get together and we’ll kill the main guy, the alpha guy, and we’ll steal the woman. And that’s why those governments are unstable. That’s how you get Magna Carta where the aristocrats, the most powerful people, go to the king and say, we want power too. That is, kind of, the human way of acting out that gorilla system. Ultimately, other men want women.

When you have a democracy, the best system is monogamy. Right? One per customer. Everybody gets a woman. And it sounds like that means that weak people will be allowed to breed, but it turns out it’s actually a pretty good system because it favors diversity. Because a lot of times, the smartest guy in the room and the strongest guy in the room are two entirely different people. So you want the strongest guy to reproduce, but you also want the smartest guy to reproduce, and that is how humanity advances. In fact, monogamy, one per customer, is a really good basis for a society. However, it goes against the gorilla code, and the gorilla code is written into our DNA.

    Not only is this far from accurate from a scientific viewpoint, it’s also a hopelessly reductive and cynical take on humanity. It’s depressing that this sad old fuck has seemingly learnt next to nothing in his 70 years.

      These manosphere motherfuckers are so funny to anyone who got past bio101 because they’re all stuck in a world where evolution is poorly understood and genetics don’t exist.

      I imagine these guys dressed as 18th century dandies because why should their clothes be any more modern than their science? (Jordan Peterson organically dresses this way)

        They’re not self aware enough to understand the pass they get because of their gender and race. We need some evolutionary pressure on them, a little hardship would separate out those who can evolve from those destined to be thrown on the scrapheap.
