Larry Auster weighs in on Weekly Standard article on sex, relationships, and game
WEEKLY STANDARD SURRENDERS TO ROISSYIST REDUCTIONISM
If you have the time, be sure to read the featured article for this month’s issue of The Weekly Standard, entitled “The New Dating Game“. The piece is a depressing reminder of how thoroughly Darwinist, reductionist thinking has penetrated the conservative movement. In particular, writer Charlotte Allen takes her cues from the destructive, nihilistic, cultlike Game movement, even interviewing the Grand Whoremonger Roissy himself:
Roissy’s deliberately outrageous posts are a source of controversy. In a write-up on George Sodini, the man who shot up a gym near Pittsburgh last August, killing 3 women before turning the gun on himself, Roissy contended that Sodini, whose diary revealed that he had not had sex for 20 years before the incident, was simply a frustrated beta barred access to women by the sexual/feminist revolution and that “anything was justified” to avoid the “walking death” of celibacy. In other words, Sodini was a hapless victim of the sexual revolution.
Every artifact of biological reductionist thinking is on display in that article. It is truly desolating to see even respectable organs of mainstream conservatism succumb to the soulless nihilism and moral degeneracy of Roissy and his acolytes. The one lesson we can take from this is that most “conservatives” are not to be trusted, as they are merely liberals in conservative clothing. Nothing they say is to be taken at face value.

So, if Sodini had only gotten to have some sex, he wouldn’t have gone on a killing spree? This is further proof that the Roissyites are nothing more than a bunch of spoiled, lazy children throwing tantrums. Not having sex won’t kill you. I haven’t had sex with my wife in forty years and I have yet to shoot up a public square.
The Roissyites’ divination of sex, a trope of liberalism, is proof positive that no conservative who takes them seriously should be taken seriously.
Frank Fanboy writes:
I knew The Weekly Standard was a neocon rag, but this…this is a betrayal of conservatism of the highest order. If it weren’t for your daily musings, Mr. Auster, I’d have killed myself out of despair for our sick modern world.

Here’s VFR’s epic thread on Game.
Sally Sycophant writes:
You are so correct, Lawrence. The Gamesters are like little culties in their devotion to their great god-man Roissy. Thank God we have brilliant thinkers like yourself to point us towards the Truth. Without you, we would be as lost as children without their Father.

This is a good a time as any to remind you all that if you find this website useful, please consider a donation. Since I’ve been blacklisted from the right-wing press and am unable to get a real job, your contributions are necessary to keep View from the Right going. As for why no other conservatives want to be associated with me, well, um, well, just donate. Manhattan studio apartments aren’t cheap.
Mark Monastic writes:
I’ve been thinking. With the poisonous and false mythology of the Gamists infecting every conservative outlet, we few who can still think clearly should consider isolating ourselves both from the rest of the movement and the rest of modern society. I’ve been drawing up plans for a proposed “Austerville” in the Catskills. If we start construction now, we can all relocate before the Hale-Bopp comet makes a pass by Earth again.
Bill Biblethumper writes:
One thing you haven’t written about is how Gamers are latching onto Christianity in order to promote their warped, perverted worldview. Here’s a good takedown of that phenomena.
LA replies:
Although I agree with everything that guy says, I can’t trust him because he hates Jews.

Larry, you’re so sexy when you get all curmudgeonly.
LA replies:
No comment.
Thanks to Thursday for inspiring this satire.
Bullseye.
You have a good ability to imitate Auster’s writing style. I just would have held off on publishing this until Auster had noticed and posted something on the Weekly Standard piece, as he probably will. Because now he’ll notice this satire and might fixate on the perceived Gamers’ attack on him, which would alter his perception of the Weekly Standard piece.

Futurama showed us a world with space travel, robot sidekicks, and Al Gore riding the Mighty Moon Worm, but what really made hearts beat faster were the downloadable Lucy Liu robots. How close are we to robot lovin’?
Ferdinand:
Great satire. When I read the first paragraph I thought it was “The Correct One”.
I’m hoping the WS piece will reignite the Game Wars of the summer of 2009 again. I have my mattresses ready. That piece (and your thumb in Auster’s eye) is just the catalyst we need to liven things up around here again.
Auster is probably right up there with Sailer as one of my favorite and most influential writers and conservative thinkers. But his anti-Game stance and his general prudeness is somewhat annoying.
Is VFR his main source of income?!?! How does he stay afloat on that? And if so, how can I start blogging full time myself?
oh and hilarious satire.
What, this is satire?
LMAO
that dating article was great.
I laughed at this part:
Roissy himself, although arguably the most jaded of all the seduction bloggers, is actually a closet moralist who longs for the more constrained past when women dressed modestly (“Girlfriend or Fling?” is all about the kind of clothing and bearing that mark a girl as a “pump-and-dump”), refrained from swearing like sailors, stayed out of men’s beds (except his!), and generally conducted themselves like wife-and-mother material (although he says he has no intention of getting married himself).
come to think of it she may be right. but whatever.
LOL. I wonder what is Larry going to publish now, you stole his first idea.
We should be concerned that we would enjoy to tear apart a wall of denial on an Internet Flame War so much?
Nah.
Took me a while to realise this was satire.
Very funny
You had me going for a minute.
Off topic, I know, but did you notice that LR responded to you over at my blog again, FB? Apparently this 29 year-old-mother has nothing better to do with her time than falsely accuse men of being rapists, woman-beaters and pedophiles over the internet. I remember back in the “good old days” when I only had to compete with my brother and father for my mother’s emotional abuse – poor Lady Raine’s children have to compete with nearly all the men in the world for LR’s special attention!
Convincing imitation. I was wondering how you got this post and it wasn’t on his site.
Auster is very insightful on his analysis of liberalism, but he gets so twisted over Roissy et al., that he can’t acknowledge the truth of his logic. If Roissy held all the same views but was happily and faithfully married, Auster would not heap such calumny on him. Roissy’s vices blind him to the virtues of his argument.
Excellent. Maybe a sentence on ‘Game is gnostic heresy…” lol. Though, as noted above, Auster has some great ideas.

Awesome.
Larry Auster is one of my least favourite conservatives, and not because of his anti-game stance either. He’s just plain dumb.
This is the funniest thing I’ve read in weeks! Thank you! So perfect.
