Session 28 June 2025

As a math teacher with 10 years of experience my observation is that AI plague affects boys more, because they play video games more than girls. Girls spend a lot of time on tik-tok, messaging and social networks, but boys spend even more time on screens.

More screen time = less ability to concentrate. Therefore it is harder for boys to do hard tasks which can't be done with the help of AI.
It has been the trend for some time that there are more girls in universities than boys. However, being in trade school is a viable career path for boys so it isn't a bad thing by itself.
yeah, but not everyone is interested in doing a trade or has the skills (I assume you're talking things like carpentry?). Also, if we're talking money, being a senior project manager in a decent field will probably get you more than a trade.

Screen time and gaming isn't the only issue imo. I'm in my 30s, and recently I noticed that at my workplace (there's over 2000 employees), the only people in my age age range at the same career level were women. Similarly, generally speaking, still around my age range, it seems like overall women are outperforming men in a lot of ways from a career perspective. Also, you'll see that women are more likely to get their finance in order to buy their first home on their own, little things like that. Honestly, I feel like overall girls/ women are just more hardworking and focused while men seems to want comfort/ fun more.
 
Interesting session. Two things struck out the part about Trump and male genocide in the past.

It's going to interesting when Trump supporters wake up to the fact that he isn't the saviour they expected to be.

Regarding the feminism debate. Honestly, imo the real danger in today's society isn't that men are undermined, but rather that they have become prone to self-pity, self-victimisation, and in some ways, you could argue that they have become the snowflakes women that they despise. These days if a man can't get a wife, doesn't rise the ladder in his career, feel lonely...etc - it is always society's fault. There's never a look at what boys/ men are doing wrong that are setting them back. It's never that maybe, they're just not stepping up to the plate of the modern world.

Keep in mind that there was time when women couldn't open a bank account on their own, when divorcing meant financial disaster, when having kids meant that they had to give up their career whether they wanted or not, where discrimination against women in the workplace was tolerated and borderline encouraged . I could go on, yet they were still women doing amazing things despite all the outward challenges. I'm sorry but as far as I can see, the modern "challenges" of men don't even come close to the above. And to be honest, to this days there are still industries that are not kind to women such as finance/ banking, and in any industries being a white men is definitely an advantage.

In regard to work/ career, I work in the corporate world with a decent enough position, so when people keep on claiming that women are fast-tracked towards leadership role, I'm always puzzled. Yes, there are programs in certain industries that promote girls/ women to work in those industries but that doesn't make their life easier. The reality is that most of time girls will be ultra serious with their education and laser focused on getting what degrees/ certificate they need while by comparisons a lot of boys their age would rather play video games or watch some guru on youtube. Similarly, at work I've noticed that girls tend to be a lot more assiduous and focused on climbing the ladder. However, hardship is there and gender and race do make things harder. To this day, there's definitely more advantage to disadvantage to being a men in the workplace, and if you have the right colour, you're golden.

Actually, I'll go further, even when you look at teenagers, girls far outperform boys. I've seen that first hand through my nieces and nephews. In all their respective schools, girls are swooping all categories - not because they are favoured, but simply because they work harder and are more focused.

Imo, people should stop using sensational news stories as their way to measure real life.

I find your post pretty weird - it's like you've never heard of wokeness or something.

Men are definitely under being undermined, and white men specifically. There's plenty of evidence for this, whether its official DEI and ESG policies, MeToo, xenoestrogens, decades of feminism, BLM, safetyism, Kalergi plan, mass immigration policies, white guilt propaganda, targeting of Kantekkian descendants, etc.

It's definitely not a sensational news story, it's one of the major social trends in Western culture, and has been the main ideological framework of today's ponerogenic process.

Session 29 December 2018


(Joe) Putin ate my lunch! Is the promotion in Western society of a hostile attitude towards traditional masculine qualities part of a broader nefarious plan?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) Is part of that to try and make a generation of weak men?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) Is that with a view to some kind of post 4D transition scenario or something like that, or is it more of a takeover on 3D?

A: More a reflection of desired relationship between 4D STS and humanity.

Q: (L) So in other words, they want to get into doing anal probes. [laughter]

A: Not far off! Dominance over the normal male.

Q: (L) Remember that book I wrote a review on years and years and years ago about this guy who wrote about the Ultimate Alien Agenda, and how loving the reptilians were, and... I'll never forget that. Jesus Christ... Go on Amazon, look up that book, and read my review. It was... That book was... Oh my god.

(Andromeda) In that direction?

(L) Oh yeah! I mean, maybe that book IS telling us the ultimate alien agenda.

(Artemis) They want the man booty!

(L) Apparently so! It's a dominance thing. It's not about sex, it's about dominance.

(Pierre) They want slaves - submission.

[...]

(Joe) At present, kind of the whole radical feminist agenda is simply a means to that end?

A: Yes

Q: (L) And I would say it has been from the beginning. We're talking about long, slow, patient manipulation. The C's said it years ago. It's to get everybody programmed to be the way they want them to be when they come to take over so that we'll all be "worthy" subjects. It's creepy.

(Joe) Is that in any way connected to homosexuality?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) Is homosexuality a deliberate tinkering with humanity that is a reflection of a 4D STS mindset?

A: Yes

Q: (Niall) Is 4D STS gay?

A: No. It is about power not sex.

Q: (Pierre) We see this in the human world in pedophile rings. It's not about sex at all, it's not about love pleasure at all. It's about power.

(Joe) And domination.

That said, women are also under attack - we're all under attack right now in one way or another. That's just what it means to live here in 3D. The PTB always does this, pits one group against another to generate negative emotions, and create a situation where it looks like power is a zero-sum game. In this case, it's the 'battle of the sexes'.

Men are egged on by their lived experiences and PTB agitprop to draw over-generalized conclusions about all women. Women are egged on by their lived experiences and PTB agitprop to draw over-generalized conclusions about all women. It quickly becomes a circus, each blaming the other, and neither reaching out to understand.

IMO, not being hoodwinked by this obvious ploy to create resentment means recognizing it as a ploy first and foremost. Seeing through the simplistic PTB agitprop narratives, such as one can find in feminism or the manosphere, is also important. It also means not relying just on our lived experiences, but instead seeking objective data on whatever issue is at hand to consider how those experiences match to reality. Only then can men and women drop this whole tired battle of the sexes psyop and instead put our energy into cultivating balanced win-win relationships grounded in truth.
 
His behaviour is exactly the same (if not worse), because people had such high hopes for him. They feel betrayed. There is nothing worse than being arrogant enough to think that you can betray your base and get away with it.

My guess is that he doesn't even acknowledge it's existence. A person who is clueless as to how badly his own administration is compromised (and doesn't even want to know), isn't much use in a 'fight' against anything, much less that kind of evil THAT's why people have stopped supporting him, in my opinion. He and his administration are not standing up for anyone, they've caved to evil.
I’d add to that the fact that Trump already did 4 years in his first term. So as far as I’m concerned, he knew everything that awaited him going in, yet he chose to run again. Did he really think he could beat the system? How stupid is he? Or… Is this uncanny ignorance his way to get into position to suddenly remove his mask, unleash his mastermind plan to pull the rug out from under…the whole world, and shut down the masters in one massive swoop? Like holding onto the Epstein file until he’s ready to destroy congress, AIPAC, and everyone else who stands in the way of kicking Israel to the curb, destroying his relationship with his son in law in the process? Then rise unshackled, kick Zelensky in the nuts, make pals with Putin, give Iran a peaceful nuclear program, join BRICS, and claim his Nobel Prize in a meaningful way?

I've heard of wokeism and I've seen it over the years, but I don't necessarily agree on some of its effect when it comes to women/ men . Also, all you mentioned doesn't necessarily negate my post. Because essentially, what I'm saying is that men have become prone to self-pity and too much in their feelings, which ultimately result in a poor outcome at a personal level and at society level.

You can argue that if men don't go to universities as much as women or if they aren't as focused in their career, it's due to wokism, but that doesn't negate the impact.

Imo, what's simplistic is just go, "well, it's all the PTB fault". The shift toward feminism didn't come from nowhere. It came about because there has been serious mistreatment of women throughout history and because misogyny was and still is a thing (though far, far less than before). By the way, I don't think that women are perfect and that men are all evil or anything, but it always seem like no one wants to engage with the failing in men which permitted this situation to occur.

People have to keep in mind that tension between the two genders have always existed, and it has never been peaceful.

Is it better to say that "it's all the men's fault" who according to you have become prone to self-pity? Your attitude towards men seems similar to the poster you criticized for being anti-women. Two sides of the same coin, not really recognizing the psyop they fell for.

Why not focus on balanced gender relations, instead of believing that one's own gender is somehow better? In my view, feminism initially did contribute to more balance, but has become way too extreme and destructive in the Western world.

A big part of the problem seems to be that gender relations can trigger a lot of emotional charges (eg. pent-up anger) that originate in early childhood. And instead of taking responsibility for working through and letting go of that anger, people tend to project and blame someone else for it. In reality, the anger charges formed in early childhood and it does not really matter who or what triggers them now - all that matters is to do whatever works for us to accept and process that pent-up anger and heal emotionally.

Men/women, white/black, gay/straight, etc.. It's all the exact same in the end. The same plan repurposed over and over again. All starting as sacrosanct battles to demand fair treatment for people who have been treated unfairly (the way women were treated in the past, the apartheid, the criminalization of homosexuality, etc..). No sooner are these movements born, quite possibly with positive intent, that they are immediately coopted to eventually bring about equal or worse imbalance in the world by leveraging old wounds, pushing for more, more, more to "make up" for past wrongs, all while making sure that both sides won't be able to look at each other (or themselves) with objectivity and, especially, compassion. A pendulum swinging from one extreme to the other.

Tensions have always existed, yes. And that is very much by design and designed to continue in much the same way. The old times were never good. The new times are getting progressively worse. Because if any sort of permanent balance was ever achieved, if anger and pride were put aside and wounds allowed to heal, normal people would be able to stop fighting each other and focus on growth and challenging (some of) the real origins of their problems.

I think it does address a thinking error in your post, because it looks to me like you're saying 'men are like this' - in other words your lived experience + PTB agitprop = overly simplistic generalizations about men.

I think it's more accurate to say that yes, many men have definitely become prone to self-pity, emotionalism, and feminization - and that's an effect of the institutionalized attack originating in 4D. So you're definitely right on that account. I'd add that some men have been stampeded into a reactionary mode against the attack, but tend to focus on mocking weak men and deep suspicion of all women (and other races), and end up advocating for an authoritarian-follower type of dominance framework. It's the usual problem/reaction/solution game.

Many men haven't become prone to any of this, and are making a well-researched and principled stand against the attack, establishing themselves in healthy masculine values and asking what it means to have complementary relationships with various Others based on our very different biological, psychological, and spiritual/energetic makeups.

The battle of the sexes has been around forever, but so has a lot of BS on this planet. That doesn't mean any of it is justified, and IMO we should think about it very carefully, and be very wary of reproducing its thinking errors.

One major thing that's under question right now is the ideal of equality that's put into action by attempting to eliminate innate differences, which is purported to somehow create The Good Life. But the idea doesn't map to reality, and as such, it's an old thinking error in Liberal philosophy that infected the West long ago. It's a very different from the more accurate principle of balance in a harmonious hierarchy, based on accepting innate differences. No easy answers as to how that can scale to an effective mode of governance, though.

Anyways, when it comes to these question of politics of equality, whether it is gender politics, race politics, or whatever earthly concerns we have, I think it makes most sense to not get so identified with our bodies, and the earthly ideologies that program those bodies, and focus on understanding the truth of these ideologies, their history, and evaluating whether or not they map to reality. In other words, paying attention to reality right and left and not getting stampeded by them.
 
I have to ask. I’ve been following this thread since the day it was posted, but I can’t remember if the last bit has been truly discussed. “All warnings have been given. They don’t expire.” That sounds pretty final. Obviously that means no more warnings will be forthcoming? That everything in future sessions will be either historical or in answer to questions about what is happening, I guess. It just feels ominous. Like there’s nothing left to say. I’m just hoping someone can help me understand the implications. I understand what it means literally, and maybe that’s all: “All warnings have been given.” But I always look for layers, so maybe there’s an answer that lies inside putting all of the warnings together or something. I feel like I should be looking for something more. Know what I mean?
 
IMO, not being hoodwinked by this obvious ploy to create resentment means recognizing it as a ploy first and foremost. Seeing through the simplistic PTB agitprop narratives, such as one can find in feminism or the manosphere, is also important. It also means not relying just on our lived experiences, but instead seeking objective data on whatever issue is at hand to consider how those experiences match to reality.
I would add that our Western, Judeo-Christian, materialist culture is the "objective reality" baseline we use, but that reality can contain many assumptions, which may not always be the best or most in tune with Cosmic Mind. There are examples of primitive egalitarian societies where men-women relationships take on many forms - some seemingly more reasonable than ours. There is a tendency in these cultures for the community (not the government) to be more involved in the raising of any particular couple's children - practical STO based on group survival. We in the West probably have much to learn. We live in a hierarchical society where competition is king. In a more egalitarian, circle-people, STO-driven society, there would be less friction and more balance, no 'battle of the sexes' memes.

Im a blue collared man and I have worked with countless thousands of men over the years. I have literally never seen this "prone to self pity and too much in their feelings" effect you are describing. If this kind of thing happened with friends, it would be stopped almost immediately.

If anything, what is happening recently with the proliferation of poverty and chaos, is that men are becoming increasingly more aware of how systematically oppressed they are and it is inciting anger and frustration. You can see this trend with voting statistics and general dissent increasing all over the world. This is happening to women as well. I think the crux of the issue here is that it is Souls that are the target here, not men or women exclusively.. These agendas just represent different angles used by the PTB/4th D in order to carry this out.

If you are referring to one of these corporatized marxists who feign weakness in order to gain an advantage or to feed off people, I would consider reading more in to how OP's operate. This is a hallmark attribute of OP's and it isn't just men that do it.

As far as I can see, the reason men aren't going to universities as much as women is because they are being systematically marginalized from academia, unless of course they are willing subjects of the marxist agenda(which are these emotionally driven sycophants you are describing in most cases), which takes any kind of masculinity as something that should be removed. This is already having profound effects on society in the form of an incompetency crisis, and this will only get worse as time goes on.

Women are also the largest recipients of DEI initiatives. In order to even get a degree today in the west, you need to get your appropriate dose of white guilt/patriarchy/pronouns/inclusive BS.

The social contract has been broken. You are no longer rewarded for hard work, you are no longer rewarded for merit, you are rewarded for being in a "special class" of people who have apparently been victimized. So many men are seeing this and deciding the juice isnt worth the squeeze.

I would agree with you in the sense that I think people in general are becoming more worn out and run down, and their behavior exemplifies this. I also think people are becoming increasingly more pathological and ponerized. The C's told us years ago that the "wheat would be separating from the chaff", so this shouldn't come as a surprise. Effects of the wave I would imagine.

The fact that so many people are sitting inside and playing video games I think is one of the symptoms of this.. dissociating reality instead of facing it. 45% of video game players are women.. so, I fail to understand why this is some kind of point you are making in regards to men. More people are just sitting inside, period.

Feminism was absolutely a nefarious agenda and doesn't stem from the injustices dealt to women.. you will notice almost all of the early ambassadors of feminism were Isreali women(total coincidence, I know). One of the earliest triggers of first wave feminism was Anna Freud's work on psychoanalytics and how that could be applied to advertisement. They ran a marketing campaign that was designed to create cohesion between women and their husbands, which eventually led to women entering the work force, which obviously created its own host of problems, including the destruction of the nuclear family. I would put money on the fact that most women in todays world would prefer being mothers and nurturers than working some soul crushing 9-5.. but, they now had twice the work force to tax and to incentivize paying us less, all while convincing women that this was empowerment. Feminism has absolutely had a negative effect on society, especially women.

Is it ironic that we are discussing this in a thread where the C's have confirmed there were periods throughout history where almost all men were eliminated due to a matriarchial society? This idea that women have somehow been disproporationately oppressed in our recent history.. in western civilization, is absolutely ridiculous.

How many generations of men have worked themselves to the bone to provide for their families, without complaint? How many generations of men have willingly sacrificed their lives to protect their homes? Do you think men were not oppressed going to work every day, breaking their bodies down, inhaling toxic fumes, working in dangerous conditions.. for decades.. just to put a roof over their heads and some food in their families bellies?

We are witnessing first hand how intelligent 4D STS is, how insidious and clever they can be at designing ideological prisons, the effects of turning us all against each other. To understand that it is definitely coming from the top is pretty paramount I think.

It's almost as though you think this all just came in to fruition randomly, as though decades of this programming isn't going to have noticable effects on people, institutions, societies.. or that people being effected by it are somehow unjustified in their reactions to it.

Anyways, this topic could have novels written about it. Definitely not meaning to offend anybody on here. I think even starting this conversation initially needs to have the division of souls vs OP's before men vs women. The further we get in to false dichotomies the more inconsistencies we get.
 
It just feels ominous.

Well, they have said repeatedly, "Help is on the way."

Otherwise, watching the skies, land, and sea means earth changes and/or 4D bleedthrough? Perhaps, alluding to this as well:
Q: (L) Will there be a war in the sky with the aliens?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Will it be between Orions and the Federation?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Will it be visible on earth?
A: Oh, yes.
Q: (L) When will this be?
A: It has already started. Will intensify steadily.
Q: (L) Why are we not aware that it has already started?
A: Disguised at this point as weather. Fighting part still in other dimension. Will go to this one within 18 years. Anytime within this period. Not determinable exactly when. Could be tomorrow or 18 years.

Their warnings plus saying the US is beyond the point of no return . . . yeah, guess maintaining a stiff upper lip as the British supposedly always did along with prayer and meditation.
Q: (L) Is there anything we can or should do about this?

A: Meditate en masse.

Q: (L) So large numbers of people should meditate and try to bring some kind of peace or resolution to the Earth?

A: Yes

Plus, be useful to others as circumstances dictate. I'm still mulling over the no electricity due to a catastrophic solar flare or CME. I imagine the Amish are going to be in the best position (at least for a while) when the power goes out for either an extended period or all together.

That's all I have for now.
 
45% of video game players are women.

Something I've noticed on TV lately is a big push of phone games by very prominent celebrities. Lionel Ritchie and Lebron James are two that immediately come to mind. I don't do video games and certainly not ones on a phone, so I'm not sure what exactly is being promoted - is gambling involved? Or just a money stream to keep playing? Whatever, it's very noticeable how much these are being advertised using very well-known celebrities. Of course, bread and circuses is what occurs to me, but I wonder if there's an addictive quality involved with these games. It just seems very suspicious to me.
 
Imo, what's simplistic is just go, "well, it's all the PTB fault". The shift toward feminism didn't come from nowhere.

By the way, I don't think that women are perfect and that men are all evil or anything, but it always seem like no one wants to engage with the failing in men which permitted this situation to occur.

So you say that because mistreatment of women existed in a widespread way in the past, this gave rise to feminism But would you say that feminism has given rise to a similar desire to mistreat men as @iamthatis highlighted?

I definitely think this is in process, and I think the trend is proliferating thanks to the internet and social media. The ease with which anyone can find a platform and reach wide swaths of people at once has created a potent witches' brew of self-aggrandizement by women of middling intelligence, compounded by the average man's fear of appearing potentially monstrous to women. That is to say, it's pretty easy for female denizens of the internet to express their grievances towards men -- earned or not, it ultimately doesn't matter -- and receive positive reinforcement from both sexes, with little to no pushback even when their words are rude, cruel, or objectively false.

Generally speaking, these days I find it alarmingly easy to come across casual (or, let's be honest, blatant) misandry in the media or on the internet, while stumbling upon the opposite is quite rare. Yes, there are certainly some talking heads in the manosphere who regularly spew repugnant ideas, but it's not hard to spot and subsequently avoid these individuals and their attitudes. Gone are the "why-I-oughta" days of Archie Bunker and Al Bundy (who, it must be stated, were the butt of the joke anyway!), replaced by something much more insidious that tells boys and men how little they matter in a million different ways.

Go to a children's clothing store and count how many shirts display some kind of positive message about being a girl. Then go to the boy's section and try to find something similar about boys or boyhood. I can tell you right now that you won't find any "Boys rule the world" shirts, but you'll find the inverse and many other shirts with ra-ra-sisterhood messaging on the opposite side of the store with ease.

This is really just the tip of the iceberg of my thoughts on this subject. My main point, I think, is that in the last 50 or so years, western men have more or less willingly stepped aside to make more space for women in almost every facet of our society. And while you can argue all day long that the simple fact that men had to "step aside" at all is just an indicator of how ingrained sexism was in our culture, the fact remains that they did step aside. They opened the door. They allowed the system, which was ostensibly weighted in their favor, to be rebalanced so women could find their place.

And, if I'm being genuine, I don't think women are doing a very good job of making sure the system stays balanced. And I think men are terrified of giving women any kind of feedback that could be perceived as negative, lest they be perceived as some kind of monster. So they're just... going silent.
