First up, we've got Mike Cernovich's guide to winning the current propaganda war:

We are everywhere, and that's why the media is losing its mind.

The media is on the defensive. They simultaneously can't look away from what we do, and yet they don't want to wake people up.

Cernovich again with the Jim Ghomeshi Rape Hoax:

[Jim] Ghomeshi, a former CBC radio host, bragged about being a women's study major and male feminist.

Then his life changed. Several women came forward to claim he sexually assaulted them. He lost his job, he was put on house arrest, and he was called a rapist by international news.

The problem is that Ghomeshi is innocent.

Vox Day's transcript of Roosh's press conference (there's a video for those who prefer):

All right, so the world has gone insane in the past week. Why? Number one, I had organized meet ups around the world for men to enjoy a social happy hour to meet in private and talk about anything. Work, politics, girls, just to meet. Okay? Number two, a year ago I wrote an article How to Stop Rape. This article, to a 10-year-old, was obvious that I didn't intend to legalize rape or cause harm against women. But starting on Sunday, a lot of you have lied by saying that I am a pro-rape advocate. He wants women to get hurt! And then the third thing, you said the meet ups are about rapists. They want to gather to learn how to rape. They are going to exchange tips. Some of you have called it a rape rally! What the hell is that? A rape rally? So because of that I've been all over the world in terms of the news. Over 100 articles have been written.

And finally a Sci-fi author get's blackballed:

I launched a book this week and I went Indie with it.

I had to. My Publisher, HarperVoyager, refused to publish it because of some of the ideas I wrote about in it.

Top, got a minute? Can you tell us about the company? I mean the real inside scoop.

"Oh, it's not so bad, I suppose. Could be worse anyway. I mean, I think maybe it could be worse. It used to be worse, actually, back when the XO - Lieutenant Dainty, our lipstick lesbian - was still pining over the fact that Staff Sergeant Levee wouldn't return her affections. God, she was the distilled and concentrated essence of PMS for months. But Levee wasn't attracted to lipstick lesbians, and was too much of a pro to cross the officer-enlisted divide."

Mike Cernovich on why so much effort is being put into censoring social media:

Why is there a huge effort from governments and social activists to censor social media? Why do I fight like hell on social media? Isn't social media a waste of time and a place to share cat pics?

Once upon a time if you wanted your story to get out, you had to call up your friends in the media. ... Today you don't need the media to get your message out. If you have something to say, you take your message directly to the people.

Ross Douthat's Ten Theses on Immigration in the New York Times:

1. The nation-state is real, and (thus far) irreplaceable.

2. Immigration is a perilous solution to demographic decline.

(There's eight more over there obviously, and arguments in favour of each of his theses)

Finally we have a Change.org petition of interest:

In order to show how safe current migration is to Europe, particularly regarding the cause of feminism (I reject wholeheartedly the notion that North African and Middle Eastern migrants are unsafe, and rapists), Emma Watson should spend a week's holiday in a Calais migrant camp, without guards of course, to show how safe, and how pro feminism these migrants are.

First up we have John C. Wright's Point Deer, Make Horse about the leftist response to the San Bernardino shooting:

[F]or the Left, their God is Caesar, that is to say, the State, that is to say, themselves.

After every crime-spree or disaster or terrorist attack by persons who never turn out to be white rightwingers, the Left says that it is the punishment rightfully delivered for not being faithful enough to Caesar, not giving him what he demanded for our good: not giving Caesar enough power, property and control over our minds and souls to solve the problem.

Also on the San Bernardino shooting Anonymous Conservative posted this:

One of the San Bernardino shooting victims was a staunch supporter of the right to bear arms.

He knew the threat, he had the skills and ability to deal with it, but he was killed ... by the political machinations of weak and pathetic rabbits who managed to use ... cops and his own respect for the law, to kill him and help the terrorists.

Next up Dalrock on the Fantasy Land that many Christians seem to live in regarding the push to get women into the military:

[T]he CBMW’s [Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood; a group of Christian complementarians] response to the generations long push by feminists to insert women into all parts of our armed forces is to pretend that something else entirely is going on. To avoid confronting the very open feminist rebellion, the CBMW pretends that men are insisting that women be forced into combat in their place. No one else believes this, and I have to believe that deep down even the complementarians themselves know this is a farce. However, confronting a generation of women demanding to usurp men’s roles is difficult, and to a complementarian downright terrifying. Changing the subject from reality to a fantasy world allows complementarians to avoid what is difficult and instead focus on posturing.

And finally, and just for fun: Cataclysm DDA; a rather addicting rogue-like about the zombie apocalypse.

Particularly for any European readers: A Petition regarding firearms in the EU.

Finally: Apparently Today is Poul Anderson's birthday; grab one of his books to celebrate. I haven't read heaps of his writing, but what I have read has been universally excellent.
