The media is now calling Tuthmosis a troll:

Quote:And it seems that it has hit that depressing mark for some readers, as one who goes by the username Archangel commented, "Good God, I love skinny chicks ... I will bust my arse for a sweet adoring waif, but I will not lift a finger for a hatefrothing you-go-grrl."

But another side of the discourse surrounding the piece has also emerged, as a number of readers have suggested it is an epic attempt at trolling, either for the purpose of generating controversy or to generate attention and, by extension, Web traffic and money. And it wouldn't be the first such attempt by Tuthmosis, who has also written misogynistic posts with titles like "24 Signs She's A Slut" and "10 Tell-Tale Signs She's An Internet Fatty."

Here's another accusation of trolling, from the Huffington Post:

Quote:As netizens continue to fume over the blog post's awful message, some have pointed out that the piece may have been a vicious trolling attempt to attract more readers to the Return of Kings site (which, according to its "about" page, is dedicated to producing content that appeals to the "small but vocal collection of men in America today who believe men should be masculine and women should be feminine.")

Off topic slightly, but female 'outrage' is pathetically non-linear. Take a look at this:





In the same way that Chris Brown is still seen as a sex symbol, whereas productive computer scientists are shamed as dweebs and nerds, DMX is cheered and openly swooned at by the very audience that Dr. Phil deems as perfect little snowflakes who hate misogyny etc. Without the manosphere I wouldn't have been able to understand why. I probably would have said "Oh, he's rich" or some other bullshit.

The alternative to Tuthmosis' proposal is that women with eating disorders will be lonely and dateless -- in a house full of cats. That's no good.

Women with eating disorders everywhere should thank Tuthmosis for the increase in male attention they will now get.

Yeah, when I was in school in the 80s all the girls had eating disorders. They would never eat in front of us ever. They also spent 30 minutes packing that azz in Sergoi Valentes every morning so they really couldnt afford to gain.

Classic example of a narcissistic defense mechanism. I wrote about this recently, but here's a tl;dr summation.

Leftists and feminists' false, narcissistic identities are based in part in the belief that they're more intelligent/educated/enlightened than conservatives and anti-feminists. They really do believe that their opponents are all illiterate, mouth-breathing, Bible-beating rednecks.

Along come guys like us who are eloquent, intelligent and make our arguments with logic and reason. Normal people, even those who disagree with us, would at least give our views a fair hearing considering our intelligence and articulateness. But because leftists/feminists are narcissists, they have to rationalize us away as being trolls or otherwise unserious because admitting that it IS possible for educated, smart, worldly men to reject feminism/leftism would undermine their false identities and lead to narcissistic injury. (This is also why "ignorant" and "uneducated" are popular pejoratives used by feminists.)

The disturbing thing is that a lot of feminists have no problem admitting this. I used as an example in my article the Thought Catalog post last week that described ROK as "leader of the trolling revolution," but you'll find it ALL the time in anti-anti-feminist hysterics. For example (not to redirect the thread onto me, but it's a great example), this article from SUNY Brockport popped up in my Google Alerts this morning:

Quote:According to the “About” page on Forney's blog, he grew up in Syracuse, N.Y. and attended SUNY Plattsburgh and the University at Albany, where he majored in English and journalism. Besides the scary reality that he grew up and studied close to where most of us did, he also has the same major that I’m studying here at Brockport.

Think about it. This girl is so wedded to her false identity of being more educated than thou that the idea that someone from the same area of New York as her with the exact same educational credentials having completely different viewpoints is unfathomable. It's the narcissistic hamster at work. (BTW, SUNY Brockport is a crap college, one of New York's preeminent safety schools. I very nearly enrolled there as a teenager but was turned off after my college visit.)

I suspect that dismissing the 'sphere/ROK/anti-feminists as trolls will be the dominant line of attack against us for the next few months at least, until the MSM and feminists realize that we aren't going anywhere. It's the "laugh at you" stage of social acceptance. Once they have no choice but to accept that we're serious, the claws will come out.

Hope the ROK server stabilizes. I've been meaning to troll the comment section while the iron is still hot.

Hypocrites all.

(a) They are cashing in on Tuth's article to get pageviews of their own.
(b) Trolling comprises most of the content on new media sites like Huffington Post to begin with. They're just not as clever or hilarious in most cases.

Someone should hit them with the counter argument, "So are you saying that women with eating disorders don't deserve love? Everyone deserves to be loved and it's wrong to assert that men can't list the positives of dating women with eating disorders rather than avoiding them like the plague as you women suggest that we do,"

Post: #161

I thought to be a troll you had to go on someone else's blog. It's Roosh's blog. This content is fine by him. So how is it trolling? They don't have to read it.

The truth is that they hate women who are thinner than them due to eating less (i.e. having an eating disorder, as it is called today).

Well it's obvious the articles are written in such a way so as to get a rise out of people and thus drive traffic. The titles always make me laugh, but hardly anyone has a sense of humor anymore.

Its a trap. They want Tuth to try and come out and show his identity.

Huff Post on the other hand are fools. They claim they did not want to post the link to the article but have it plastered in all of the Twitter posts they plugged.

Post: #166

I am doing some twitter hit and runs now. I am doing some reverse trolling and telling them that they are idiots for giving the site more traffic and that it's the truth haha.

Post: #167

Do a google search on "eating disorder." The rage over this article is at the very top of the news.

I recognise the troll value of the original post, but I don't *want* a girl with an eating disorder in my life, whether she's fat or thin because of it. It just means she's crazy, and the crazy will infect every life decision she makes.

The highest quality women I've been with were all fit, active women who had a healthy relationship with food. They didn't speak of 'starving' themselves or 'genetics'. They just knew that if you eat unhealthy food to excess and don't exercise, your body pays the price. They didn't skip meals, but ate realistic portions of salads / vegetables / protein that would fuel their body without excess. They didn't consider it 'denial' or 'punishment', because food was fuel, not an emotional reward for unhappiness.

They're women who are smart enough to understand cause and effect without restorting to unhealthy rationalisations.

Disciplined girls value disciplined men in a way lazy, entitled girls are incapable of. They aim to live up to your standards rather than expecting you to lower yours.

It's interesting that none of them will ever understand or accept the truth: men are so disgusted by fat women that we given an absolute choice between a fat woman and a mentally unstable, but thin girl, we would easily choose the mentally unstable girl. No fat acceptance movement is going to change that. I think that's why this post hits their feels so hard; it turns 50 years of their work on its head.

I agree maybe something that points out just how irrational they are, how they must make everyone care about what they care about, how their protests about your article was just another form of attention whoring. How they all owe you a bj for boosting their viewerships.

Even in this thread a few of the guys really gave solid observations about why the women were reacting this way. A good follow up article making fun of their crazy responses would just get them to spazz out even more.

Co-signed. Every page load seems to have 30+ static assets requested. Moving out to a CDN is the best step, followed by enabling gzip compression, then by minifying/combining files.

We use caching, but not a CDN. It's too expensive for the bandwidth we move.

Post: #175

We havent heard from Tuth in a while. The man is drowning in pussy.

Already spreading through the news posts. (Not that this is a legit source)
