Apparently he called the Dave Ramsey show to see if he could purchase some advertising for his website/books and was denied by a female advertising rep named "Grace"- and extremely angry about it. This is the closing paragraph to his blog post:<br />"I'm just plain done dealing with the "Grace's" in this world and am going to be pointed them out and highlighting them henceforth in the vain hopes of improving the future for our children by removing the "Graces" from our world."<br /><br />What does he mean? Does he want to do what Matt Forney had done and try and use Google to libel her/ destroy her reputation? Or Dox her? Or does he hope to incite someone to do something more sinister? Or is he thinking of something more extreme? <br />Should Grace be warned that Clarey seems to planning a vendetta against her? I don't know. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711202640864482160.post-34282590146485390942014-06-14T02:19:29.236-07:002014-06-14T02:19:29.236-07:00The false piety that often cloaks their rage is es...<i>The false piety that often cloaks their rage is especially unnerving.</i><br /><br />Interestingly enough, I recall Machiavelli writing, in <i>The Prince</i>, that piety was the most important virtue for a ruler to feign. Maybe they're all taking a leaf from his book.<br /><br />As for the Dark Enlightenment, that's always struck me as sounding very black metal. Given its name, it's the sort of movement you expect to be full of Satanists, rather than the fundamentalist Christians that seem to comprise the majority of its members (for added irony, they refer to their enemies collectively as "the Cathedral"). I often have these silly visions of the triumph they all long for being heralded by a day of literal darkness, in which hordes of sinister figures dressed in black hooded robes go forth to burn down museums, libraries and schools, as well as round up "heretics" to burn as well (actually, most of that's probably not too far off what they fantasize about themselves).Zosimus the Heathenhttp://ourdifferentjourney.wordpress.com/2013/06/29/zosimus/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711202640864482160.post-48905618123019925542014-06-14T00:00:44.775-07:002014-06-14T00:00:44.775-07:00Re/ the Dark Enlightenment, I'm just too old t...Re/ the Dark Enlightenment, I'm just too old to get it. I am so old that I had already graduated from college by the time kids were getting lost in sewers playing "Dungeons & Dragons." So I wasn't weaned on that alternative "fantasy" world that seems to have shaped the worldviews of this generation. As far as I know, the Dark Ages were a horrible time: violent, plague-ridden, terrifying. It is inexplicable why anyone over the age of twelve would romanticize it.Cinziahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811789307226566072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711202640864482160.post-57566728461771667342014-06-13T23:48:22.246-07:002014-06-13T23:48:22.246-07:00Re/ FeMRAs projecting their anger w/their mothers ...Re/ FeMRAs projecting their anger w/their mothers on all women... That seems quite possible. I'll admit I haven't followed many of the FeMRA blogs. The little I have read confirms my notion that when women "go bad," they can readily outdo men in their hatefulness. The false piety that often cloaks their rage is especially unnerving. At least the men generally own their anger, while the FeMRAs slather their venom with "feminine" appeals to Christian morality and "concern" for the sluts, fatties, and "frivorcees." Also all those ugly food pictures make me queasy.Cinziahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811789307226566072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711202640864482160.post-9032854701701540432014-06-13T22:36:06.600-07:002014-06-13T22:36:06.600-07:00Somehow, it seems oddly apt that Roosh should'...Somehow, it seems oddly apt that Roosh should've ended up exiling himself to Siberia.Zosimus the Heathenhttp://ourdifferentjourney.wordpress.com/2013/06/29/zosimus/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711202640864482160.post-44966118101650640862014-06-13T18:28:14.998-07:002014-06-13T18:28:14.998-07:00Haha thanks Cinzia.

He seems to be descending into paranoia, if his latest rant on Return of Kings is any guide.<br /><br />But it was always going to end thus. The difference between a real movement (of any kind) and a hate movement is that the first is based on ideals and the second on self pity.
