But&#8230; here&#8217;s a list of some of the worst quotes I&#8217;ve seen from (people I think are) MRAs and anti-feminists, commenting on George Sodini, the woman-hating racist who shot 12 women, 3 of whom died, in a health club earlier this week. There&#8217;s a bunch of quotes here, but I&#8217;m sure I could have found 2 or 3 times as many if I hadn&#8217;t gotten sick of reading.<\/p>\n<p>By no means do I suggest that the quotes in this post represent the most common, centrist views in the MRA, anti-feminist and &#8220;pick up artist&#8221; communities. In most of the forums where I read these quotes, I did see occasional disagreements with the kind of thing I&#8217;m quoting &#8212; although all too often, not &#8212; and of course many condemned Sodini. And, obviously, I&#8217;ve cherry-picked the most offensive comments, not the most typical comments.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, most of these views are, in a way, accepted within those communities. No one is shocked to see these views posted; no one is banned or modded for posting these views; and the disagreements are, in many cases, rare and mild, if they come at all. In other words, the most vilely misogynistic garbage, even to the point of sympathizing with murder, is part of the spectrum of ordinary opinion, within these movements. And that&#8217;s both a cause for concern, and illustrates what&#8217;s so fucked about about the &#8220;men&#8217;s rights&#8221; movement and community.<\/p>\n<p>MRAs aside, though, I think that George Sodini had a lot in common with attitudes in our society generally. As <a href=\"http:\/\/pandagon.net\/index.php\/site\/comments\/these_crimes_dont_happen_in_a_vacuum\/\">Amanda<\/a> says, Sodini&#8217;s blog was full of absolutely typical &#8220;nice guy &#8482;&#8221; bitterness and entitlement. Mass violence is what&#8217;s unusual about Sodini, not his sense of entitlement to sex with attractive women, nor his resentful misogyny. That sense of frustrated entitlement, I suspect, motivates most mass shooters like Sodini (which is probably why nearly all of them are white men &#8212; no one else in our society feels so entitled).<\/p>\n<p>For more on anti-feminist reactions to Sodini, see <a href=\"http:\/\/pandagon.net\/index.php\/site\/comments\/these_crimes_dont_happen_in_a_vacuum\/\">Amanda<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/elizabitchez.blogspot.com\/2009\/08\/mens-worst-fear.html\">Elizabitchez<\/a>, Lisa at <a href=\"http:\/\/punkassblog.com\/2009\/08\/05\/dont-do-it-dont-look-dont-do-it-dont-look\/\">PunkAssBlog<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/jezebel.com\/5330560\/gunman-murders-gym+going-women-misogynists-approve\">Jezabel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Quotes under the fold. <strong>Trigger warning<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/roissy.wordpress.com\/2009\/08\/05\/game-can-save-lives\/#comment-114441\">George Sodini is an<\/a> MRA hero as much a reason to learn game. Finally a mass murderer writes a relatively coherent manifesto. Could be better, but at least it is implied that feminism is to blame and he is taking a last stand. I had been waiting for this (almost thinking I had to do it myself) and I am impressed. Kudos.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/fbardamu.wordpress.com\/2009\/08\/06\/george-sodini-and-the-contract-between-the-sexes\/comment-page-1\/#comment-84\">Women are treated much<\/a> better than men in America. This is merely the blowback from feminism.<\/p>\n<p>Women have to accept this incident as a tax on their freeloading. Women get men to buy them drinks, dinners, and bridezilla weddings, all in return for virtually nothing. Once in a while, a few women get shot up. Given the $500 billion a year that women mooch off of men each year, that is a relatively small tax to pay.<\/p>\n<p>Women, particularly the feminazis, have a good deal of introspection to do. Better they do it now before Islam forces them to do it on Islam\u2019s terms.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/fbardamu.wordpress.com\/2009\/08\/06\/george-sodini-and-the-contract-between-the-sexes\/\">&#8230;he had every reason<\/a> to lash out at the society that screwed him over and make its denizens feel some of the pain that they had inflicted on him. There are millions, tens of millions of men in this country who have been deceived in a similar fashion, and there are numerous Sodinis amongst their ranks who will react violently and murderously once they uncover the truth.<\/p>\n<p>What amuses me is how the women of this country and the West don\u2019t realize the role they have in creating men like Sodini. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.halfsigma.com\/2009\/08\/finally-a-gunman-with-an-interesting-story.html?cid=6a00d8341bf6ae53ef0120a5207236970c#comment-6a00d8341bf6ae53ef0120a5207236970c\">One thing that might<\/a> help prevent future incidents of this sort is repealing IMBRA, the federal law that essentially put the mail order bride industry out of business.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.halfsigma.com\/2009\/08\/finally-a-gunman-with-an-interesting-story.html\">His last girlfriend was<\/a> around twenty years ago.

Even so, his other issues mostly seem to result from an absent father (who was just a \u201csperm donor\u201d in his words), and that is not supposed to be a problem according to the feminists either.
