So many authors on the Dissident Right are busying themselves competing with one another to be the next Dostoevsky by writing a Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, when in fact what the world needs right now more than anything, is dissident YA literature

‘40K is satire’ is peak cope. No man has ever, in his heart-of-hearts, put a poster of a Space Marine on his wall just to “remind him of the dangers of fascism.” Some men are so far gone and irony poisoned when they experience something aspirational they have no idea what it is.
I dislike the Warhammer 40k is satire debates because it’s all a bunch of Leftists trying to control optics and arguing with them is pointless. However, I will say this, if you create imagery that people naturally want to identify with, you have failed miserably in satire.

Only me and handful of Internet Autists are likely to read your Great Western Novel - at least in your lifetime. And that's IF you can achieve it. Whereas a YA novel is something that could be read by thousands. Based dads could read it to their based sons.

We need a YA novel where the protagonist is simply Alpha: an exemplar of Master Morality. The MVP. Beloved by his hometown. Trusted by his friends and teammates. While he is a natural athlete and leader, he still works hard and puts in the effort to grow stronger.

The antagonist is the opposite of our hero: weak, beta, resentful, sexually disordered in some way; a purveyor of slave morality. If there's any 'magic' or 'superpowers' in the book at all, he should be the only character to possess them; using them to exact revenge.

When I tell people I plan to rule over my daughter and her decision-making like a medieval lord, who can look at the absolute state of millennial and Gen Z women and honestly tell me there is the slightest thing wrong with my plan?
women today are able to fight natural urges in ways no one could’ve ever imagined—with profound distractions, games that simply never end, & junk void of any real meaning to fill the gaps.

I hesitated to comment on the 'Roman Empire' meme last month back when it was 'the current thing', but I can't stop thinking about it; I doubt I have anything to say that hasn't been said, but it truly is the reductio ad absurdum for why most women cannot and should not rule. 1/4

Leftists will mention “it’s the creators themselves that claim it to be satire.” I don’t care what the creators said or thought. They may very well have been the ur-leftists living in denial. When they went home they flagellated themselves in front of their space marine poster.

It’s interesting what differing intuitions men and women have when it comes to shielding their sons. My wife balks at the slightest violence in a movie, whereas I balk at the slightest hint of sex.

Sure he thinks it’s ‘silly’ that his kid’s kindergarten teacher ‘non-binary’. He thinks his neighbors’ kid who transitioned is pretty strange and cringe, but he doesn’t let it get him down. He’s convinced all his children need is to bask in the glow of his radiating goodness.

Millennial dads like to brag when they introduce their sons to video games. They fail to realize that, while we had video games and turned out ok, they’re a complete disaster for Gen Z. I’ve never met a member of Gen Z who is simultaneously into video games and well-adjusted. (1)

Doesn’t he want his kids to grow up in a culture they can be proud of? Doesn’t he want to live in a culture that reflects his values? Does he think previous generations of upright men lived their lives in a total vacuum? Does he ever even think about The Roman Fucking Empire?
