Divorce Support Forums: We Need a Clear Direction...

This is from another forum, similar to this one, that I posted the same original message (above) on:

"I agree about people who have viable shots at public office but regardless, it's not a great thing to vote in favor of for a majority of the electortate"

Yes, unfortunately you are quite correct. If we are to push forward, that has to change. The only way that can change it to get backsides off couches, and into the voting booths. This will take time, and it won't be remotely easy. Yet, we cannot afford to be daunted. Things are only going to get worse. If the feminists have their way, (and they already do in so many ways), then fathers will have to kiss any right to see their children GOODBYE, period.

I don't think that I'm being overly dramatic when I say that we're looking at the possible end of western civilization. The feminists are going from strength-to-strength, while we wallow in self-pity! Our anger is palpable, but we are merely lashing out at thin air, here.

Further, we have to focus on battles that we have an actual chance of winning. We CAN reform the family courts, given enough determination, the right advocates, and provided we're willing to put forth the time and effort. It won't be easy, by any means, but it can be done. We can expect to go from failure to failure, until at last we do succeed. This will take a supreme act of will, but if we concentrate on the fact that all we want is fairness, all we want is to be counted, and not a return to the benighted status quo of the pre-feminist movement.

We cannot afford to delude ourselves: stereotypes and derision cannot be utterly defeated. We should not waste our time railing about T-shirts or bumper stickers, no matter how justified our anger might be. Further, we must avoid falling into the same traps. Women are not evil. Sadly, many have been duped (even brainwashed) by an ideology of victimhood and seething hatred directed at roughly half of the population of the planet. Let us focus on the lasting problems, and not the ephemeral.

We need to assert our efforts against the tangible, real problems that face us. And we need to choose our battles carefully, soberly. As heartbreaking as it has been for many men who have had their children stolen from them, before they even had a chance to meet them, we cannot win the abortion battle. No one's going to take us seriously on that front. I know how painful it has been for many: I had a friend who desperately wanted to be a father, to hold his offspring in his arms. He was a large, strong man. He could have beaten the ever-loving crap out of me. I saw this same man break down. He crumpled, as if someone had ripped his heart out and robbed him of his will to live. He chose to end his life a little over a year ago. I know how devastating it has been for some men...but it's a fight we can't win.

The feminist movement began as a legitimate cause, most reasonable people can agree on that. That cause, however, has abandoned its true principles and gone too far. Now, it is a movement bent on creating hysteria and angry, irrepairable divisions between the sexes, between mothers and fathers, wives and husbands.

It has become a rabid demagoguery, a modern day Inquisition that sees the demonic agents of the "Patriarchy" everywhere. It's message is one of contempt, and nothing more.

The more people we can educate, and the more people we can urge to become politically active, the better our chances and prospects become. It will take time, decades perhaps, but at the very least it will slow the beast down.

Never believe that they are not determined. Moreover, they have a vast array of support networks working in the name of their hateful ideology. To counter these massive obstacles, we have to bolster our own forces. Much like building an army, if you will. It's slow, escpecailly when you have to start from scratch, but it is better than the alternative.

Remember, politicans are generally spineless. They are creatures attuned to the poltical winds, relying upon them for survival. The political winds, like all evanescent things, change. It can happenly quickly, or it can be excruciatingly slow, but the flow of those winds are nonetheless malleable.

We do have some advantages, however. I don't want to go into them via this forum, though. I can gaurantee you that more than one of "the enemy" has run across my post already. We don't want to give them any more of a "heads-up" than we have to. If this all seems a bit cloak-and-dagger, well...that's because...in a very real sense, it is. One of the advantages that we have is something of the element of surprise (the feminists don't deal too well with the unexpected, after all). We don't want to sacrifice that...not yet. We need to gather a collective of individuals WE CAN TRUST, and the sooner the better.

Let me just come out and say this, though: I'm not talking about ANYTHING ILLEGAL, just in case you're worried. All action taken must be explicitly within the realm of the law, and political. I'm not talking about drafting some "male version" of the SCUM Manifesto, urging people to commit violence or break the law in any way whatsoever. No. It must all be political.

We stand before a mountain, my friend. In order to win, we're going to have to raze that mountain, one well-directed blow at at a time. But we must not become militant, unreasonable, radical, or unwilling to compromise.

Hot emotion must be countered with cold logic, hysteria with facts, irratic frenzy with precise calm. If we can but temper our anger with patience, determination, and strategy WE CAN WIN THE DAY.

For the right, the fair, and for the honor.
