6 thoughts on “William Collins: The Anatomy of our Decline”
Generally I thought that an excellent piece, however, there were one or two items regarding the comparison between the male and female dynamic and the interaction between the sexes in the workplace that I thought inaccurate and rather outdated. I am firmly of the opinion that men are far more inclined to co-operate than women and far less confrontational, in evidence for which position I offer the example of the women only film production company that fell apart, pretty much from the beginning, through petty jealousies and squabbles over things as trivial as make-up, shoes and handbags (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1168182/Catfights-handbags-tears-toilets-When-producer-launched-women-TV-company-thought-shed-kissed-goodbye-conflict-.html or https://www.reddit.com/r/TheRedPill/comments/1uzwf6/women_in_the_workplace_an_allfemale_distaster/). Unfortunately I cannot provide a link to my my own personal, observed and received experiences or those, too often reported to me, of my wife, who works in an almost all female environment and for heavily feminised and extremely inefficient employers in which every problem you’ve alluded to in the past is evident daily.
Excellent piece.
I believe many women act in this way for no other reason than the fact that they can ‘get high on the drama’ of any social situation of their making and one in which they can almost totally control.
Furthermore,if that means power over and damage of males,then in their twisted thinking that’s a job well done.
First men allowed women to claim equality of performance by staying silent when witnessing obvious women’s shortcomings at the workplace. (mostly in physical jobs but also in science, maths, engineering, etc) Then men stayed silent when women claimed equal pay for lesser performance. Now men stay silent when women make up phony sex assault accusations, many dating back years and decades. All for ridiculously holding on to the gentleman doctrine, while women all but abandoned the behavior and roles of the ladies. Small wonder things are the way they are now. Time to discard the gentlemanly silence and start openly stating women’s workplace shortcomings and weaknesses. As mercilessly as women are attacking men.
I have often thought the same…..men remain tight lipped but women speak up i’ve seen it happen on too many occasions within the workplace or social situations.
If i’m verbally attacked or spoken to in an inappropriate manner by a female my policy is to give as good as I get,you sell yourself short by remaining silent.
I concur that this was an excellent piece. However I am not (quite) so pessimistic as Mr Collins. Even if he is right, then all that will happen is that feminists will completely destroy British society, in which case it will be necessary to start again on a sensible basis (ie without feminism).
C G Jung’s concept of enantiodromia is relevant here. Enantiodromia, the meaning of which he probably got from Ancient Greek philosophy (ie Heraclitus) is the principle that the superabundance of any force inevitably produces its opposite. Jung understood this in psychiatric terms, ie within the individual, but it can be applied to societies as well.
My judgment is that we are very near that tipping point, although the next 2-3 years may yet be very difficult.
Justice for Men & Boys

That notwithstanding, the piece was excellent.
