Geek Gab Hosts Authoress AM Freeman

Daddy Warpig and Dorrinal hosted AM Freeman on Geek Gab yesterday. This young woman is a rising author who should be on your radar. Hear for yourself.

Freeman's part of the Superversive crowd, so you can count on her stuff being quality stuff even if it's as well known as your local bar band. In addition to Warpig's latest rants, you'll get information on the Superversive Press Planetary anthology series as well as her own debut novel, another anthology she's doing for charity, and Jon del Arroz in the chat saying that she should take over the show. Fun times had by all. Take an hour today and have some fun yourself.

The Gates Are Closed To The Horde

This is the truth about SJWs and the NPC hordes they create. They appear otherwise, but dig some and you see that this is true.

>

And the proof is in the failures they produce. All they do is degrade and destroy, and the flaming wreckage of franchises great and small alike shows this to be true. They seize the gates of scenes they target and ruthlessly freeze out those they can't infect and turn into NPCs or SJWs, and therefore gatekeeping is not optional; do it to them before they do it to you.

So be it. My gates are shut, locked, and barred to them because they are locusts and heretics. Woe to the fools who dare try them; lawfare is on the table.

A Musing On Secret Kings & Secret Societies

The below paragraph comes from Anonymous Conservative's daily covering of #QAnon. I'm not talking about Q here. I'm talking about the socio-sexual hierarchy, specifically on Gamma males, and what the fullest expression of a type's psychology looks like when it reaches intergenerational and institutional levels of scope and scale. Read this and see if this is not just Gamma psychology writ large.

Eric Holder implies America has never been great. I am not sure this is due to that typical liberal treason we have come to know and love. Don’t forget Cabal sees, and has seen, a very different world, often from childhood because from what I see, membership is passed from parent to child. When a SWAT officer wore a little, almost unnoticeable Q patch, the leadership immediately suspended him. To us (and him) it seems a ridiculous over-reaction to a meaningless issue, especially in a discipline normally known for loyalty and forgiveness of its even own’s minor foibles. But those leaders knew – and maybe had known since they were little kids. To them, that patch was not a little thing – it was a stick in the eye of the Secret Society. Understand the extent to which we are, and have been, two societies. One society has known, often from childhood, and feels as if it is the Kings and we are the serfs. And then there is our society that is immersed in the myth, which is and has been blissfully unaware of that other society’s existence – so long as we didn’t make too much noise. So Rahm actually looks back and sees an America which probably for all of his life was made up almost entirely of Serfs – and serfs too clueless to realize how things really worked. He sees an entirely different America throughout history from us. The truth is, the America he sees, and the America he helped create, probably was not great. It was the myth we serfs conjured in our minds that was great, and that made what greatness there was materialize. For him, that was just a mirage – and I am not sure he is entirely wrong. Don’t forget, the America he saw routinely experimented on wounded servicemen, and killed any like Brian Mancini who became a threat. If I looked at that, I would ask if it was ever really great, or if we were deluded. They key now is, to make the Myth into the reality, and purge every last motherfucker like Holder. Then, without any doubt or argument, America will be Great.

That, folks, is "Secret Kings win again!" all over the place. This is the fundamental dishonesty of the type's character as the cornerstone for an entire way of life. The lying, the cheating, the blackmailing--especially the blackmailing--and the cowardly abuse of fellow travelers and those deemed beneath them are all a part of the way things are for this cohort. If you know the tells that give away individual Gammas, then--as the hierarchy is fractal--then you can see them scaled up to work at this level.

And secret societies like this are cliquish to the point of being recursive; within each one is a greater, but smaller, society that controls the larger one until you're down to one or two at the center of the web. Sometimes this is a formal layering of control; most of the time it's just Mean Girls bullshit gone out of control. hat's right, folks. We're dealing with folks living the Gamma dream, in all its depravity. The worst of the lot could give Gul'dan some pointers on how to lead an evil secret society and successfully use supernatural evil beings to one's benefit.

The second proof I offer is the observation of the contrast that Trump--an obvious Alpha male--has on this lot. He's directly, openly confronting this group of gossipping backstabbers in exactly the manner that Gammas find terrifying. Trump may not grasp consciously the hows and whys, but he gets it instinctively and that's why he's been as effective as he has so far in dealing with them despite the massive head-start.

This is the same dynamic that goes down when an outside Alpha comes into a SJW-converged org and begins cleaning house; the Gammas know the Alpha is a threat and conspire to take him out, and it goes down in much the same manner that we see with Trump. They use fellow travelers to create appeals to amenable authorities to do damage on their behalf while they poison-pen behind the scenes to make the smears stick. It isn't working with Trump, and now we see smaller-scale failures with the failed hit on Vic Mignogna in the North American anime scene.

In both cases, once the operations of the machine got exposed and real consequences were put on the table the Gamma-mode enemies freaked out. In Vic's case things are going to end to his benefit sooner than later, but that's solely due to this being a much smaller scale and scope. What we're due to see in the United States with Trump are going to have consequences echoing well past his Presidency, especially now that the last non-violent option against him has now wholly failed. (Next comes the assassination attempts. Cornered rats and all that.)

Gamma males in the grips of their dishonesty fear exposure more than death; as the inevitability of exposure dawns upon them, expect this crowd to turn on each other to save their own asses or try to run for it before the God-Emperor's hand reaches them. (That's what all the talk about New Zealand is about; this is the bolt-hole to run for, which is why the local government is acting so contrary to its expressed purpose.)

If I'm right, and I think I am, then dealing with individual Gammas and dealing with institutional Gammas has the same solution: sic an Alpha on them and back that Alpha up. Let Conan run Gul'dan through and then clean up the mess left behind.

From Rehab: The Roboleg Arrives

Yesterday I went into the orthopedics office and got my test socket for my prosthetic leg fitted. Now I'm wearing it and walking on it, the latter not as much as the former, while we go through adjustments before the final version is made. This isn't quite the cybernetic future I was promised, but it will do for now. After spending weeks in a chair, actually being able to stand on two feet, even if one of them isn't real, is fantastic.

As I expected, I am learning how to walk again. It's not the total rebuild you see in the movies; it's about the finer elements, by comparison, having to do with making use of certain muscles when moving. These are things you do unconsciously if you're able, but have to relearn consciously when you're resorting to a prosthetic. For me, it means that I can never skip Leg Day because everyday is Leg Day; I need those muscles, in both legs, to be strong to be able to return to a more-or-less normal walking gate. We haven't even gotten to addressing stairs and curbs yet.

My orthopedics doctor told me that I can get the final version customized, if I can get it put on something in fabric like a t-shirt or a bandana. (Yes, it's consumed in the process.) So I settled on this subtle display saying "SIEG ZEON!" It's the unit badge for Zeon's Living Dead Division as seen in Thunderbolt, the one made up entirely of amputees. If I could get that in the next few weeks so I can have it transferred to the final socket, that would be great.

My Life As A Gamer: The Pundit Talks The Long Campaign

The Pundit's Dungeon Crawl Classics campaign just hit its sixth anniversary. That's huge these days. Of course he cut a video.

I've also enjoyed running years-long campaigns before. My last World of Darkness campaign, a Mage game, went three years. My Exalted campaign went for three years. A lot of what the Pundit talks about here I can vouch for being effective in making a tabletop campaign effective entertainment. The most important point? It's not about the PCs! The world exists independent of the PCs; they are just people in a living world, regardless of their power or influence, and they are no less disposable, expendable, or fungible than everyone else.

The other dealbreaker point is this: you're there to play the fucking game. Not to hang out. Not to bullshit. You're there to get shit done. If you watch competitive raiders in World of Warcraft, or the folks who compete in the Mythic Dungeon Invitational, they have this attitude; they've logged in to kill bosses and get loot first and foremost. If this means not playing with your pals, so be it; your satisfaction will be superior when everyone's focused on playing the fucking game. It also cuts down on stupid drama; your man dying just means playing another man, not detonating a friendship or worse.

The result is that your setting acquires a history without ever being a fucking a story. This is how you run a tabletop game properly. Folks come and go, but history marches on.

To Stream Or Not To Stream

I have something for you folks to consider. I am willing to do more with my Twitch account than just post in chats, but I need some help to make that happen because I'm lacking the tools to do it.

If you head over to Twitch now, and you look for folks streaming Super Robot Wars, you'll see some folks in English but their streams are boring. I presume the Japanese, et. al. streams are no more entertaining on the whole. While I understand that watching the gameplay is the core of the appealing of streaming, if that's all you do you're not taking full advantage of the medium.

The successful streamers are those that find a way to add value to the experience. This varies widely, from providing expert commentary as gameplay happens to using their charisma to attract and retain an audience there for the streamer as much or more than the game and more beyond. (Yes, sadly, this includes legions of thots teasing desperate boys out of their money despite being married, gay, both or not even a real girl.)

What I'm offering is that me streaming Super Robot Wars on Twitch, on a regular schedule (but not more than weekly). In addition to playing the game, I'll also take the time to talk about the sources for the units in the series and make accompanying blog posts; these can also double as ongoing game review commentary. To make that happen, I'll need folks to show me that this is what they want to see; that means getting me the tools, starting with the console itself and then one of the three recent console games: V, X, or T. I have all of them on this Amazon Wish List here.

If that's not your thing, then here's the other offer, which is me running a real D&D campaign. This can be done with voice chat over Discord and some form of virtual tabletop so folks can play remotely--I have Tabletop Simulator--but again I want to see some show of interest before I proceed. This can take the form of buying from another of my Wish Lists--ACKS, Lion & Dragon, and Basic Fantasy are here; orthodox D&D is here. I have rulebooks for AD&D1e and BECMI.

Show me you want it to happen, and it will.

My Life As A Writer: When The Dead Reign

This is a good sign, believe it or not. It means that the SJWs in SF/F don't have the reach, and therefore the power, that they wish they had. It means that SJW-dominated tradpub is indeed in a state of collapse since the old houses rely so hard on "dead white guys" to stay afloat. It means that Vox Day succeeded in destroying the Hugos since they have no power whatsoever anymore to push books out the door. It means that the field is ripe for the #PulpRev scene to flourish because, unlike the women quoted above, we revere those dead white guys and seek to surpass them- and that means we focus on writing top-tier entertainment!

My Life In Fandom: Victory For Vic Mignogna

Following the Vic Mignogna situation, things are turning up for Vic. First, he's back at KamehaCon. Second, two of the folks who tried to wreck him have made things worse for themselves by backing out.

Too late for the KickVic crowd. Vic's lawyers are going after them now, and unless some hardboiled lawyers (a) take their cases and (b) ride herd on those morons good and hard, those SJWs are going to be in the poorhouse or in prison. Lawfare against SJWs WORKS!

Use the law, people. It's the last resort before we're forced to resort to the Integra Option for dealing with SJWs, so don't be bitches and just sue them.

My Life In Fandom: Return of the Super Robots?

The return of the Super Robots may well be here. We already had the release of a brand-new movie for the Mazinger Z fans, Mazinger Z: Infinity. Not only is that film now out on Blu-Ray, but it's featured in the just-released Super Robot Wars T. With the success of Infinity, one would reasonably expect the other classic Go-Nagai series to follow.

*ahem*

You don't make high-end toys if there's no media to go with them. Expect a new Grendaizer film to be announced before the year is out. Don't be surprised if Grendaizer makes a return appearance in the next Super Robot Wars game. It's been even longer than Mazinger since Grendaizer had any new films or series, so it's due for a revival. It's been a whole generation since Grendaizer's been on the air, so it's time to bring it back.

And since most of you reading this are too long to remember it, here's the original opening theme song:

Remember that later Super Robot shows like Gurren Lagann are tributes to these '70s series that are now classics of the genre and define its tropes. If we're going to Make Mecha Great Again, then we've got to know and love our roots. You may not be able to afford the figure, but I bet you can afford to see the series or film--and I expect it to be a film--when it becomes available.

And yes, you can bet that there's some influence on Star Knight to be found in all of the Super Robot shows of the era.

My Life As A Gamer: "Bloodlines 2" Is SJW Trash

A sequel to Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines dropped last night.

>

Sounds great, right? Then you haven't payed a damn mote of attention to White Wolf Game Studio and its members. Long before the phrase got coined, long before the behavior got labelled, this company's members went SJW and the company Got Woke & Went Broke. Having learned nothing from that experience, the developers are on the record as being SJW-amenable and thus Bloodlines 2 is Woke. Read the quotes for yourself.

Yeah, this is SJW trash wearing the original as a skinsuit. At least Woke Wolf got the suck-the-life-out aspect of Vampire correct; too bad they goofed on everything else. (Hint: If this were real, SJWs would not exist as the very traditional undead would've eaten them all and roasted the corpses.) You can read more on this trainwreck over at One Angry Gamer.

And avoid Woke Wolf entirely, both vidya and tabletop; they've been Woke As Fuck for decades. Not even bankruptcy and collapse stopped them from being SJW fucksticks.

Narrative Warfare: #KickVic Goofed HARD

Last night, Nick Rekieta had Ty Beard on his livestream again to talk about the latest legal developments. This was an epic show.

The big reveals include:

  • Some SJW crossed over into criminal charges.
  • Ty promised Vic's mother that he'd fix this.
  • Some SJW went after Ty's other client, Todd Haberhorn, and made this personal.
  • There's so much public written material that formal deposition is more to confirm than to discovery, in practical terms.
  • Yes, these SJWs really are that stupid. If it weren't for their malice, you'd pity them.

This is as close as law gets to a sureshot, thanks largely to the SJWs being complete incompetent morons who can't shut the fuck up and stop being stupid. The law moves slowly, however, so it will take some time before the impact hits them. It is during this lag time between input and output that the SJWs can still get their win condition (kick Vic from the business permanently) despite the ass-reaming they'll take in court. I'm sure someone's going to do a summary video.

Narrative Warfare: The #KickVic Crowd Dun Goofed

I don't post more than once a day on the main blog often, but this warrants a second post.

The drama surrounding North American actor Vic Mignogna turned to his favor in court recently when evidence came out confirming claims of Tortious Interference With Contract on the part of his fellow North American actors that work as he does doing voice acting work for anime dubs. This specifically came out surrounding KamehaCon and the anti-Vic clique harassing the owner of the convention, and all of this came out last night during Nick Rekieta's livestream. This one is only about 90 minutes, but it's got several epic rants on just how badly these SJWs have violated the law and didn't bother to cover their tracks.

"They never thought they would lose." didn't stop with Sick Hillary Clinton, folks. The SJWs behave like this as a matter of course, largely because people haven't bothered to take conflicts with them out of the social arena and into court until now, so despite some of them being served they still run their mouths and lie like nothing happened because--so far as they're concerned--nothing has. Until they are compelled to comply with legal procedure, be it depositions or testifying in court or whatever, they do not perceive consequences for their actions.

Yes, they are that oblivious. Stop treating them like they're good-faith actors; their deeds destroy that presumption. They're liars. They're doubling-down on the lies. They project so hard that NASA should draft them as launch vehicles. But that's not why I'm posting about this.

I'm posting to show you one surefire way to beat them: Take Them To Court. All of this turned around the instant Vic retained counsel and made it known that he did so; now that the full weight is dawning on them, they're panicking and that means the NPC programming kicks in even harder. This explains the doubling-down accelerating and the projection going weapons-grade. This explains the entirely predictable pattern of neutrals getting off the fence and siding with Vic in increasing numbers. This explains the vehemence of the SJW social media machine going HAM on pro-Vic cons, and riding herd on the rest hard. They're losing the narrative, and it's the legal action that's making it happen.

Facts don't care about feelings, and facts are what courts focus upon. You #KickVic villains better come to Jesus or you're going to lose, and lose big. You dun goofed.

Here's Your Gamma (Male) Detector

This is the most important video you will see today. Mastering the concept of the Socio-Sexual Hierarchy, and sorting out the men you encounter/know accordingly, will prove vital to making your life better and your success more likely- whatever your objectives may be.

If you wonder how Gammas can be fixed, check the link in the video Description and read through to the end. It's doable; it's not easy, but it's doable.

The Business: Liars Lack Logos

I came across this in my Twitter feed today.

And this follow-up summarized the issue.

This is what happens when you forsake Logos and think that you can literally make up your own truth. You lose the ability to discern propaganda from reality (i.e. Logos) which is what parables rely upon for their impact, and is what justifies literature's existence. The SJWs in SF (et. al.), having swallowed Satan's lie due to their own pride, see only the utility of literature as a propaganda tool to brainwash populations- an inversion of Logos.

Ultimately this embrace of madness degenerates those that do so, weakening them to the point of decrepitude, and the proof is in the work that they produce- both the quality and the quantity. Normal people may lack the language, but they notice the effects and react accordingly with closed wallets and moving feet. They want entertainment, not propaganda, and entertainment has to have Logos to maximize its value and impact. You can't lie and get away with it forever; every con man knows it, despite being unable to stop grifting. Forsake Logos and that doom comes for you.

Narrative Warfare: Gatekeeping Isn't Optional

Whether it's the rich and famous or just influencers in very niche culture segments, the SJW playbook remains the same:

  1. Get gatekeeper positions.
  2. Turn a scene into a fake community.
  3. Use fake "community" language to justify gatekeeping enemies out of the scene.
  4. BANHAMMER! (They'd kill you if they could, but they can't.)

Two examples of this in action. The first is that Jack Dorsey wants to ban James Woods (Yes, the actor.) from Twitter over the latter's unrelenting support for the God-Emperor, but can't because doing so would bring more pressure than relieve it. The second is the RPGPundit being hit by this exact scam to justify shutting him out of the OSR subreddit at Reddit because the mods are SJWs.

And yes, Jack is a Gamma faggot. His appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast made that crystal clear; he'd ban Woods if he could in a heartbeat.

That the Pundit gets so much hate from SJWs in tabletop gaming should tell you two things: he's more influential than he gets credit for, and the stakes are not what they think they are. (What they are I'll expand upon in another post.)

At least the SJWs in TRPGs can't destroy D&D. The Open Gaming License makes this impossible.

The lesson here is simple. This is a situation akin to nuclear weapons or firearms: if you don't pursue them, your enemies will and use them against you. Gatekeeping is not an option anymore; if you don't seize those positions and use them to keep the SJWs out, then they will seize those positions and use them against you. Take and hold all the gates; firm boundaries form free societies.

Narrative Warfare: Goodbye Gun Control

I enjoy a solid world-historic Fuck You to Empire. If I hadn't had something bigger for the weekly Empire post, I'd put this there instead of here.

Below is a Big Deal. It's the release of all the files needed to craft your own AR-15, provided you have the tools, from scratch. This is bigger than the release of the Ghost Gunner CNC machine; this is the practical follow-through of Cody Wilson's promise to make gun control impossible due to The Internet Is Forever. It got posted about a month ago and I can't believe that this didn't get bigger attention.

Sure, you can probably get parts commercially for a sufficiently cheap price, but having the ability to roll your own ensures that you always have the capacity to equip and maintain yourself no matter how bad things get. All you need to have are the tools to make these files useful and you're good to go; focus on acquiring, by trade or crafting, the necessary ammunition instead. Never fear bans again once you've got these files, but first you'll have to endure the freakouts of Empire's Thralls as they grasp with the reality that they can never again count on a disarmed populace.

Signal Boost: Unauthorized, a Video Network for Dissenters

The Supreme Dark Lord is relentless in his ambitions against the world. Today he formally unveils what he informally did last night on the Darkstream: Unauthorized.TV.

We launched this a little sooner than we'd planned, due to the fact that YouTube demonetized the Big Bear yesterday afternoon. But we already have over one hundred hours of content, including the Darkstreams, Voxiversities, and Owen's shorts and live shows.

The premium content is coming soon, but there is no real difference between the $10 Basic subscription and the $25 Premium monthly subscriptions, it's just about how much support you're willing and able to offer the channel. Most of the content is, and will remain, free. The $5 Feed the Bear subscription is a replacement for Owen's YouTube memberships and primarily supports the Big Bear.

This is NOT a YouTube replacement.

This is meant to be a content network syndicated to other sites, so the website is meant to be a repository that subscribers can directly access rather than the destination in itself. It reminds me of how Red Ice runs their content, which also has a subscription-based members site, but in a smarter manner. I don't think all of you will like it, but I do think enough of you will to make paying $5 or $10/month worth the effort to budget for it.

Expect contributors to be selected, vetted, and invited. Expect content to be similarly centered on quality contributions over quantity of uploads. Assuming that this works as intended, and doesn't become a containment site for stuff YouTube doesn't want (which I expect will be the case for other such sites like Full30), Unauthorized should quickly be a network of content providers that a good part of the population wants made available to them. Good luck, Supreme Dark Lord.

Narrative Warfare: A Tale of Two Inversions

Razorfist released a rant on a new Doom movie no one wanted or asked for.

This is not just a right-retention movie. It's also a tax writeoff for the parties concerned, and that they could shove some SJW bullshit in the process is just gravy for these people. Spreading the Narrative was not top priority here; keeping control over an IP that has some hotness going for it was. Razorfist is on target here, and that's why I've already filed this film away under "Not even if they pay me to watch it." This film is an inversion, but not purposefully so. This is incompetence on display more than malice.

No, if you want a film where the SJW Narrative was the top priority, look to Brightburn. This movie inverts the Superman mythology into a horror film, complete with Clark as Always Chaotic Evil Demigod. Both trailers make it crystal clear that this is a Superman movie, but inverting everything so as to make Supes into a Cthulhu-grade villain.

As I said earlier this week, deliberate destruction of a culture's heroes is a display of dominance meant to demoralize them. That's what Brightburn does, using just enough obfuscation to provide legal deniability vis-a-vis DC claiming copyright infringement, and while this film isn't going to have the reach of a blockbuster it has all of the things that the film festival crowd--which includes a lot of people who make blockbusters--want out of a film. In short, this film is a Proof of Concept for a superhero subversion that would complement the SJW convergence of Marvel's films and give DC a reason to do the same.

The only question that remains is what "heroes" replace those subverted and destroyed in our media like this. Brie Larson's take on Carol Manboobs is the mildest example of what to expect; we can look forward to worse if this is not stopped. Supporting those willing and able to uphold true heroism in defense of Civilization is more important now than it was previously, as this is a clear sign of the acceleration of the SJW agenda. The incompetents like this Doom movie only provide cover for the real subversives like Brightburn; the sooner we can Fork & Replace them, the better.

Mess With a Man's Money If You Want To Suffer

Nick Rekieta talks about Tortious Interference in this video, and it's short enough to watch over your lunch break.

Vic Mignogna was fired from Funimation and Rooster Teeth and disinvited from conventions. We've been lacking a critical piece of tortious interference with contract...until maybe right now.

Uh oh! Shane asked a good question! How do you PROVE that there was knowledge of a contract? Well, ma'am...maybe we can do just that...

Grab some whiskey and join me!

Some SJW dun goofed.

This is going to be very interesting regarding the whole Vic Mignogna affair. If this pans out as I think it will, then Vic's lawyers at Beard & Associates will have a good time wrecking Vic's accusers and those abetting them in court. This goes beyond the interference that Mark Waid is alleged to have done to Diversity & Comics, and I would expect that these Very Smrt Boys and Grrls would finally get the point their Rhetoric-focused social media schemes aren't going to save their asses. We'll see if any of them lawyer up, and shortly thereafter shut the fuck up.

I am pleased to see the support for Vic out there. Based anime fans need to step up at this time and push back against the SJWs in their midst, especially in the con scene (where such resistance would be most effective), where SJWs converge the cons as a means of controlling the scene and gatekeeping thereafter. Remember that we've got the books on SJWs out there, so spread the word. They can be beaten.

Poke That Bear Harder, SJWs.

No one accused SJWs of being intelligent. The ones involved with the failed hit I mentioned yesterday are doubling down.

The stupidity on display makes me wonder how they make it through the day. These people already prompted one round of legal action, and this is how they respond? Knowing that deposition letters are on the table, they attack someone who knows the law better than them with means that are no less legally dubious than those employed against Vic. They are so programmed to display the Three Laws of SJWs that they're doing them routinely on Twitter alone; expect them to be engage in some gay ops behind closed doors because coordinating SJW swarm attacks is their thing.

I do hope that Vic's lawyers come at them soon, and come at them hard. I hope that Nick counter-punches legally also. In the meantime, I repeat that we are not without remedy. In Minnesota, defamation is a crime, and if I catch folks talking shit you can be certain I'll press charges. Check your local laws, folks; if you have similar remedies, or easier civil options, then let slip the dogs of war and use them. Lawfare is on the table; feast good and hard with it. No amount of Muh Feels matter when you get caught up in a legal action.

Show them that poking the bear is as stupid as going into a predator's zoo enclosure and expecting to cuddle them. In the meantime, mock their weaksauce without mercy.

Narrative Warfare: The Failed Hit on Vic Mignoga

It's all fun and games for SJWs until someone lawyers up and forces them into court.

Recently the North America anime scene saw a SJW Swarm Attack commence on 20 year veteran Vic Mignogna. It's the usual sexpest accusations made up to a decade after the fact by female voice actors and the soyboys who white knight for them, attempted to #MeToo him out of the business. Fellow travelers at Funimation and in the convention scene picked up on the Narrative Warfare signal and shut him out, denying him work and side revenue doing paid appearances (i.e. messing with his money). All this looked to be working until Vic decided that lawfare was fine with him, hired Beard & Associates out of Dallax, Texas, and set to work on a Defamation civil case against all concerned.

This got the atttention of Nick Rekieta, a Minnesota based lawyer, who does legal commentary on his YouTube channel. Nick interviewed Vic's lawyer, Ty Beard, and also operated a successful crowdfunding campaign on Vic's behalf. This did not make the SJWs happy; they went after Nick with Internet Lawyer weaksauce that got them blown out badly both on Nick's show and on social media (especially Twitter). After Nick concluded a very entertaining interview with Ty, he went on this epic rant.

While you can't go to prison for Defamation in Texas (unlike Minnesota), you can get taken to the cleaners if you're enough of a moron. We have a pile of morons here, and that includes Funimation. In return, the SJWs are now going after everyone that they can who stands up for Vic Mignogna while they gaslight people into believing their narrative. The recent hit piece by totally-not-Japanese Japan Times is the most blatant scam, trying to convince people that the IP holders in Japan would side with the poz. (Nope, it's SJW fraud yet again.)

This is a failure of Narrative Warfare. Vic's going to get his name cleared, and his career back, while his accusers and their enablers are going to get wrecked for certain- and, God willing, found to have committed crimes. (Please, Texas AG, someone's had to have crossed the line here; look into this for some easy scalps.) I recommend Nick's show as the primary place to keep up with this and other legal issues of interest to us, so hit up his YouTube channel and follow him on Twitter. Watch as the SJWs find that courts care about facts over feelings, and drink deep of their tears, and learn from Vic: Lawyer Up!

Sue the SJWs, take them to court, and hear the REEEEs of their inability to feels their way out of it. Lawfare is your friend.

Narrative Warfare: It's a Symbolic Display of Conquest

Our friends at World Class Bullshitters put out a lunchtime video on Captain Marvel.

Jeff's got it right. This is a mediocre film being hyped as the Second Coming, and all the bad Public Relations surrounding this film is what's going to sink it. I fully expect the same thing that we saw with The Last Jedi to repeat here, and for the same reasons. I went into the bigger reasons for why this is going down yesterday at Empire Must Fall, which you can find here.

Let's get a bit more specific here. Why is the Mouse doing this to the only other film franchise they have that's worth a damn?

For that, let me again point back to a previous Empire post, this about the aforementioned Mouse Wars film:

Anciently, when a conqueror completes a conquest one of the things done do cement control and establish dominance is to change the mythology of the conquered nation. Their heroes get degraded, their deeds defiled, and the conqueror's heroes supercede them in all ways- often with ease. To the generation surviving the conquest, this is insult added to injury, but left unchecked the generations that follow will accept this degenerate mythology as normal- and if the conqueror is wise, they leave an out for the subjects to go all the way and buy into their control. It's the mythological equivalent of killing a man, taking his wife for oneself, and slaughtering his children by her before seeding your own to both remove loose ends and make her accept the conquest as inescapable.

The people running the House of Mouse hate the West and Christianity. It's that simple. They're doing this to signify, by symbolic manipulation, that you're a conquered people due to be displaced and replaced by them and their agents. The comics side of this was the dry run, the shakedown cruise, to see if they could pull it off; as far as the Social Justice Death Cult is concerned, they can and they have, so now they're scaling up to the film versions. Expect all of the outgoing characters to get degraded in fundamental, if subtle, ways before being yanked off the stage for good; expect their replacements to wear the iconic legacies like grotesque skinsuits as they ape the actions without any of the substance that gave the prior actions meaning.

Yes, the people who make those new movies and characters happen will be incompetent. That will be by design; film and TV is a deliberate process by its nature, starting with the producers and other stakeholders. If they want to symbolically degrade before destroying and replacing heroes with their own, putting fuckups in positions to do that and cutting them checks is how you deniably do that thing. This is Basic Bitch Narrative Warfare. You change the stories, warping the past to create the present and put out the future you want to happen, and fuck the other guy. It's straight up 1984, coupled with the insult that many will be compelled to lie so blatantly about what's going on if they want to stay employed.

While the Bullshitters are focused on getting clean entertainment back, and by that they mean "No Propaganda", I know damn well it's worse than that. Fortunately, normies are not yet wholly indoctrinated; they vote with wallets and feet, so I expect a repeat of the aforementioned Mouse Wars film's box office crash and burn next weekend and those to follow. So, I suspect, does the Mouse; Endgame is a month and a half away for a reason, and that has to do with making this film's performance irrelevant in fiscal terms so its narrative impact can be maximized without fear.

This is why you have got to stop being paypigs to these people. Stop giving them your money and your attention. There are alternatives, especially from overseas, such as My Hero Academia if you want superheroes made by people that like you and want to entertain you. Domestic alternatives include Jon del Arroz's Flying Sparks, and there's more to come out of the indie world. Walk away from Omelas, folks, before you find yourself to be the forsaken child powering the utopia.

Star Knight's First Fan Art Has Arrived

Reavers of the Void has not yet been officially published yet, and I already have fan art.

Fan art is a good sign. It means that whatever you created made someone happy to celebrate it by drawing what they liked about it. and then share it with others. Even if it's not your thing--e.g. the Stark/Banner slash pics in the wake of the first Avengers film--the evidence of audience engagement with your work in a positive manner is something one ought to regard as a good omen that you've done something right.

This is good to see. I hope to see more of it, and not just of the mecha in the book. As the series goes on, I hope to see even more fan art; there's a moment in the next book that ought to have artists racing to their sketchbooks, especially if they want to sequential art such as comics, because nothing sells something like word of mouth and fan art is the visual form of spreading word of mouth.

And that fan art can bring about official works of awesome and glory. The more Star Knight fan art you folks possess, the greater the odds that someone like JAM Project will do the Opening Theme to the inevitable anime adaptation, like this song--"Stormbringer"--they did for New Steel God Jeeg a decade or so ago.

And if you want more proof that this group is the go-to for all your hot-blooded anthems, check out the samples from their 2018 concert film here, here, and here. There's a reason why the folks from Super Robot Wars keeps calling on them for each new game. Your support can help make a JAM Project Star Knight anthem happen!

Getting Back Into The Saddle

If you wondered where I disappeared to, it was to the local emergency room.

That's right, I've been hospitalized. The reason? I had a blister on the arch of one foot. I drained that blister. It got infected while I caught the flu, advancing apace while I was bedridden for two weeks. I fought it at home until I couldn't, at which point I went to the hospital; they had to amputate, and they diagnosed me as diabetic to boot. About a week and a half after the surgeries, I'm moved out of the hospital proper and to a residence facility for rehabilitation.

I'm still here. At least I have a room to myself, and I'm making great progress in my recovery; I'm now working towards acquiring a prosthetic leg and relearning how to walk. I still have most of that afflicted leg--it was a Below The Knee job--and I've put in the work to recover my strength as well as get my diabetes under control. As of this post the stump has mostly healed up; I can afford to take off the clamshell protector to wash it now.

It's been quite the trip for me, mentally and emotionally. For what I lost physically, I've gained greatly otherwise, and the first manifestation was when most of the Metro City Boys (and Peep) made a road trip to visit me in person. The second was in keeping contact with my fellow #AGundam4Us and #PulpRev writers, especially seeing Brian Niemeier's Combat Frame XSeed launch and hit like a colony drop. (We all know that Sydney was begging for it.) His second book is up at Indiegogo as of this post, so go there and back it while you still can.

I needed my PC before I could get back to my productive life, including writing to this blog. Today that happened. It's set up in my residence room, and I am now getting back up to speed on what I need to do and how to go about doing it. Those of you Star Knight backers who emailed me since I went into the hospital should have copies of Reavers in your inboxes by now; I want to go about fixing any manuscript errors, maybe put the chapter names back into the manuscript, and get my Kindle account in order over the next week. In short, I'm getting back into doing the runup to launching the book and will do so as soon as I'm ready. That will be a few weeks, at worst, and then I will

And the backer feedback continues to be positive:

Yes, Book Two is already outlined. I just need to flesh it out some before I go HAM and put out a first draft. The outline for Book Three is still in the works; figuring out where to put the high spots is making things difficult. I've had plenty of time to write down, by hand in a journal, a lot more Star Knight lore and that means more lore posts to come to this blog as well as the writing blog.
