I don't plan on making a self congratulatory blog post, so I'll keep it short.
I've noticed how variable people's accounts of good and bad can be given the circumstances. A good person could be seen as a criminal (Jeremy Meeks) who "redeemed" himself by becoming a high earning male model, and a "bad" person could be a diligent and intelligent Google employee who released a memo full of factual, non prejudiced information regarding hormonally mediated gender differences in career outcomes and is fired and branded cis male scum.
This bias, while tragic and apparent in real life, manifests most blatantly in fiction. The "antihero" character is more adored than any other archetype. Why is that? Perhaps a man who acts how he wishes, against society's rules, is a model for how the average man would act if he could get away with it.
In the case of Mad Men, the main character Don Draper is a misogynist, serial cheater, petulant hypocritical man-whore, and yet on account of his looks and "charm" (which is 90% looks and voice) he is idolozed in pop culture as a paragon of masculinity. Now, he's manages to shag a good amount in the show, but every other male character has their fair share of affairs. Pete Campbell is the ultimate wanabe Don, but is reviled as, well, a misogynist, serial cheater, petulant hypocritical man -whore.
It's not really the character or intention that people care about, it's the success of that person. When fascinated viewers gobble up every bit of gossip on the new season, wondering who Don's gonna fuck next, holding their breath as he cheats on another man's wife with eager anticipation, they are following a natural behavioral characteristic that goes back millions of years.
People are naturally selfish, but as part of a community, do better if the community does better. That's the ultimate reason why people do good things, it's an evolutionary adaptation so the environment we live in is of a high enough quality that our offspring may grow up safely. When people wish something to happen, it's either for the benefit of their own genes, or the benefit of the community, and if the human brain evaluates that something could benefit the community so much that moral customs, laws, and righteous indignation could be violated, that person will see that thing, albeit heinous, as good.
That's why we love seeing alpha males enjoy their harem. We are seeing the next generation of Chads populate the wombs of willing, fertile women. The rules of marriage and decency apply to the 99% less attractive men, as breaking the rules isn't worth spreading mediocre genes, but for the top 1%, human beings inherently fetishize seeing these men break the rules for their own benefit, as their benefit eclipses society's structure.
That's also why guys like seeing big dicks in porn. Most guys only focus on the woman and the penetration, so pornographers naturally populate the penetration focal zone with the most vulgar and dominant indication of healthy hormonal development and genes: a giant cock. When men are masturbating to seeing a guy fuck another woman, they are fetishizing seeing alphas progenate their sperm, not themselves if they were in that position. Men naturally submit to alpha males, just like women do.
I'm also quitting incels.is on account of thinking about all this shit too often wearing me out emotionay. I'd rather be passively bluepilled and frusteratingly blackpilled. There's no point in complaining about what can't be changed.
