SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police

This book is mistitled. It should be called “I’m Vox Day and I hate John Scalzi and I want to punch him in the face. Oh yeah and all you women should stop playing games and get in the kitchen and make me a pie. If you actually ARE a woman, that is (I’m looking at you Brianna Wu).” However, I understand that title is too long even for Vox Day, so I guess we’re stuck with this one.I didn’t have very high expectations for this book--mostly I expected a typical neoreactionary screed complaining that society is going down the drain because women won’t respect the obviously superior intelligence of their male betters or some crap like that.Indeed, it sure sort of starts that way. The first chapter is a vague, fictional just-so story of some sad-sack mid-level executive who is just SHOCKED-SHOCKED-I-tell-you that he (always he) ran afoul of some namby-pamby human resources shrew and is now afraid he is being “watched.”(Did I ever mention that Internet reactionaries LOVE LOVE LOVE just-so stories? Before they arrived on the scene it was a dying art form, and I am forever indebted to Teddy and the rest of them for reviving it.)One couldn’t expect anything other than vagueness, though, as Vox hasn’t worked in a corporate environment in decades and (rightfully?) declares such experiences to be beneath his vast intellect to begin with. Seems to be working for him, because he certainly convinced me to part with $5 towards his Old Italian Guy Rec Soccer League fund. (Great job, man, and enjoy it!)But as the book unfolds, it goes to warp speed through a star cluster constructed entirely of comedy gold. EVERYTHING in Chapter Two seems to be about his self-declared feud with John Scalzi! Yes that’s right--the “three laws of SJW” or whatever are supported ONLY by a litany of personal anecdotes concerning his (mostly one-sided) feud with an (admittedly mediocre) author who has nonetheless managed to parlay his midlist success into an enduringly comfortable living! Which nobody does anymore, what a moron! Oh yeah, and some dumb thing called the SFWA (which isn’t an acronym for anything in its actual name, idiots!), which Scalzi ran for like a billion years or something! Wow the nerve of that guy!But finally, by the third chapter, we realize this isn’t just about a latent desire to punch Scalzi in the face, but also the sad tales of dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, and dude, who were caught out not realizing that being a smug jerk in public has consequences in an age where nearly everyone has some kind of media platform. So very sad, and so very tragic that simply being male and in a position of corporate, literary, or scientific privilege is no longer sufficient to give one a blank check to be a jerk. THE HORROR. Yes, it’s the global social crisis of our time! And because of the inferior inferiority of the SJW, they have to resort to DIRTY TRICKS, like sending tweets and encouraging their friends to do so.THE. HORROR.OK, now that we’re done telling the sad tale of dude, dude, and all the other dudes, we have to turn our attention to the Literally Whos of Gamergate. Because though that dead horse is rotting, putrid, and liquefying, it still vaguely resembles a horse and THAT’S NOT ENOUGH BEATING.Anyway, how to fight back against the Literally Whos? Oh yeah, get a bunch of friends on the Twitter and the Gmail to bully Gawker’s advertisers into dropping them. O...KAY?! Among the obvious insanity of all this (which is actually normal these days), the only thing I could think of was that Day previously claimed social media swarming was bad and a dirty trick? Oh, well never mind, I guess any dirty trick in the service of defending MANLY MEN doing manly men things is actually heroic and courageous. I’m still confused about how it all works (which is why I only gave this book 3 stars), but I still give him props for the idea (which is why I only gave this book 3 stars).At this point I’m wondering--hey, Teddy, why haven’t you yet bragged about wrecking the Hugo Awards? BUT I WASN’T DISAPPOINTED, because that was the very next thing! And I was very impressed by his cunning explanation of his wreck-the-Hugo Xanatos Gambit where he suggests that he has COMPLETE CONTROL over the Hugo process going forward. You know, just like the way crapheads who throw Molotov cocktails into crowds brag about how they’re experts at crowd control. Very enlightening.Following that, some incoherent ramble about how SJWs should just shut up and let us get Our Work Done, and oh yeah, Randi Harper is the worst person ever. And then a bunch of boring stuff about how to give the SJWs what’s coming to them--essentially, using the same tactics Day complains about in the opening chapters, but doing it bigger and badder and more manly. And with dialectic and stuff and junk. Boring, but maybe I’m just supposed to keep it around like the instructions to that gadget I bought the other day--you know in case something weird happens with it and I need to understand it?In conclusion, I have to thank Mr. Day for giving such a clear(?) roadmap into his mind and the minds of other vicious trolls like Milo Yiannopoulos and ultimately the entire Internet he-man reactionary caucus. They are a formidable force to behold, and I look forward to many more years of organized butthurt directed at women and other marginalized people who dare to refuse to stay in their place now that I have such a helpful manual to explain what is happening.

Vox Day was an unknown quantity to me other than being referenced by comments by various people associated with the Sad Puppies campaign against the SJW infested and Tor controlled Hugo Awards. The success of the Sad Puppies (and their now apparent allies, the Rabid Puppies from Day's camp) at forcing the SJW and Tor contingent into publicly displaying their bias and intolerance and the whole bought-and-paid incest party.So, when I saw this title, I decided to pick it up and get some insight into one of the personalities involved.What I got for my investment is a better understanding of one of the main internal enemies of my country (the so called Social Justice Warriors) and some clues as to how they exist. Better, though, is the understanding that they are, at heart, cowardly and easily coerced into rage and public display of their madness.One of the little tidbits I found interesting is Day's take on Rhetorical thinking versus Dialectic thinking. The assertion that SJW's are slaves to the emotional side of Rhetoric and completely incapable of facing the lies of their own narrative from a Dialectic standpoint is greatly enlightening.Mind you, true debate and public discourse among reasonable minds should blend the two together to form logical arguments cogently and appealingly debated and moving toward a synthesis of Truth as Aristotle intended. That, however, assumes rationality among both parties which is impossible when dealing with SJW's and their ilk, who are pure Sophos and "da feels:",In any event, the clearly delineated steps of both the SJW attack strategy and a format for thwarting such mindless mob assaults is very helpful.There's a point that has to be considered. Day and his Rabid Puppy/GamerGate comrades embrace picking up the weapons of their enemies and beating them to death with them. I actually emotionally agree with that approach, but the old saw of becoming your enemy by behaving like your enemy comes to the fore.There's a thread of truth in what he says. An organization must protect itself from being infiltrated and subverted by its enemies. That's exactly what the SJW's have done with our schools, our governments, and their associated bureaucracies. The problem, of course, is that in attempting to make sure that your organization remains SJW free, you stand the chance (and a very good one) of becoming as intolerant and evil as the enemy.Reading a bit of Day's Vox Popoli blog, it's easy to see that human pack attack tendency that mirrors that of the SJW cabal. Just because an attack dog is on your side or attacks people you don't like doesn't make it any less vicious. And that is a very dangerous sort of thing to play casually with.This is the conundrum the pointing-shrieking control-mania hypocrisy of the SJW's has forced upon us. So long as the fight starts from truth and then uses their own sort of tools to shove that truth down their throat in an emotional manner they can't deal with, that's fine. When the lies begin stacking on each other to try and out do them, though, everyone loses.Style wise, this is more of a blog-type pamphlet rather than any sort of serious treatise, and it's better for that. The material presented is not scholarly. It's a quick and dirty how-to about identifying the enemy and using their weaknesses against them. For that, readability is a must.A unsupportable broad-brush approach is used to make the points (the title is an excellent example), but that's part and parcel of establishing the boundaries for a significant conflict. Day addresses this directly in later chapters and explains the necessity from his point of view.Overall, I'm taking this as an interesting and insightful piece of chronological data that is very helpful in understanding the who's who of the conflict between SJW's and people who prefer to deal with reality. While not perfect, I certainly consider it relevant and a worthwhile addition to my Kindle library.

Whilst it's a little self indulgent in parts, this book contains practical advice on how to protect your career and business when confronted by value-signallers, passive aggressive work colleagues, HR cowards, outragists, and situations when the "victim" is simply trying to disemploy you with fake accusations for some nebulous greater good.Buy it, read it, enforce it.

This is a legitimate polemic on cancel culture seen from a right-wing perspective but in another era similar content could have been written by a left-winger, a religious person or whatever.Under the polemic, which is sometimes entertaining, it raises some important issues.

Good to see actually telling us lay people how to take the fight back to the authoritarianism of the modern left wing extremist.Highly recommend

Good to read the thoughts and experiences of an observant and not cowed author.

SJW's ALWAYS lie.
