Men's Organized Protests and Rallies: Strategic Targets

As our cyber army continues to grow exponentially underground, it is critical for us to target specific groups, individuals, politicians, and organizations that threaten the strength, sanctity and positive socioeconomic development of American men.

At a bare minimum, we must publicly rally, and protest these groups and individuals that flagrantly trash and oppose the values and ideals we hold sacred, some, but not all of which include: Faith, Family, Positive Work Environment, Hard Work, Respect for Others, and respect for The Rule of Law.

Many of the hostile rat races we call the workplace seem to have further descended into a non-committal, short term profit driven, almost television-like game of smoke and mirrors designed to passify dedicated employees, while fickle leadership stumbles along seeking the flavor of the year.

In essence, all sense of company loyalty has evaporated.

Many of our men bear witness first hand to the widespread decay, lawlessness and disoder that runs rampant throughout many of our inner cities.

If we continue to complacently sit idle (not as in American Idol) these problems will soon greet each of us at our doorstep.

Do not be fooled by how the mainstream media hides many of the true and potentially catastrohic scenarios being played out daily throughout many of our inner cities, public schools and workplace environments.

America currently has 2 MILLION PEOPLE in prison with as many 2 to 4 million additional individuals that probably should be incarcerated for serious crimes.

Make no mistake. Things CAN and WILL get worse if we do not collectively organize to rally and protest.

Our beloved Chicagoland area has been a very fertile breeding ground throughout it's history for strong men to join together and fight for social change.

As spring approaches, let us all become ready to rally and protest within our communities for those changes we wish to see.

Thank You Gentlemen and God Bless Each of YOU !!!!

Scientific Materialism: Interacting with Others

Every phone call, every e-mail, every meeting, every face to face conversation is a unique opportunity to either shine, comfort, ignore,or worse yet spread negativity and anger upon other human beings.

Even if some people truly deserve to be dealt with harshly, the chances are that life has probably already given them some payback, in one form, or another because of their inconsiderate comments or actions.

In other words we do not need to seek revenge upon others.

Living Well is Often Times the Best Revenge !!!

Having said this it is easy to disreagard others because of anincreasingly popular world view that many American men unconsciously have drifted toward.

In his book, Infinite Life, Robert Thurman describes the nihiistic, materialistic, doctrine so dominant in western society today.

He states:

"We are the product of a completely involuntary, utterly purposeless evoulution started by the random collection of elements. Our personal sensitivity is therefore nothing but an accident and an illusion. Our lives are utterly meaningless, since at any time we could die and disappear back into the totally uncaring nothingness that is assumed to be our fundamental reality."

Add to this our bleak and disheartening view of the cosmos:

"We see ourselves as billons of germs crawling on the wafer-thin skin of a boiling rock, in a tiny envelope of earth, water and air. We are composed of imperceptible particles zipping around with nauseating unpredictibility, themselves somehow sustained by subatomic waves or elusive particles that are mere vibrations or probabilities. All this somehow holds together to form an illusionary consciousness for our terminal selves, and there apparantly are no other such beings throughout what we perceive as an infinite, cold, mostly dark and impersonal universe."

"Small wonder we secretly long for death and oblivion, thinking of it sublimely as restful sleep, dreamless sleep, a welcome escape from this untenable situation."

"Small wonder we secretly loathe ourselves, considering human beings an unfortunate accident, badly made machines ill-suited for a heartless environment. Small wonder we fear expressing any sensitivity for other beings, who also have no incentives to show us kindness. Small wonder we are too lazy to engage in a meaningful way with our surroundings."

Thurman goes on to say:

"Filled with such a powerful poison of crippling self-loathing and paralyzing depression, how does our innately human creativity stand even the slightest chance of emerging?"

Given the choice of believing in a compassionate, loving God, a greater power, or spirit, the promise of an everlasting life and soul, or scientific materialism, which doctrine would you take ???

The choice seems fairly clear, does it not ??

The 2008 Presidential Election: Who Represents Our Men?

Joe Biden. Sam Brownback. Hillary Clinton. John Edwards. Jim Gilmore. Rudolph Giuliani. Mike Huckabee. Duncan Hunter. John McCain. Barack Obama. Ron Paul. Bill Richardson. Mitt Romney. Tom Tancredo. Tommy Thompson.

Those are all names discussed as possible or actual presidential candidates for the 2008 election. All of those people have been incredibly silent about men's issues. Why is that?

We hear and read talk about the "black vote," the "Hispanic vote," the "soccer mom vote," and the "women's vote." We see the endless pandering to special interest groups and large corporations. Who is talking about the men's vote? Are we not one half of the population? Who is presenting a platform (or even thinking about one) that addresses men's concerns?

There is one candidate, Dr. Mark Klein, who is testing the waters for a possible run for the Republican nomination in 2008. On his Web site, Dr. Klein says he is considering a run for the presidency to address "the heartless destruction of stable, affordable American middle class family life." Dr. Klein observes:

The family structure is the backbone of our society and it continues to collapse
under current Federal policy, which continues to increase the stress on
middle class families and encourages divorce.

That's an interesting perspective and one that interests a lot of our Frank at 40 guys. It's not a perfect agenda (is there such a thing?), but it's clearly a good start in the right direction. Have a look at Dr. Klein's site. Maybe he is not your choice of candidate. That's fine; reasonable men will differ and we're not going to make politics the raison d'être of this blog, but I invite you to start considering these questions. I've offered one candidate who is addressing these points. If you don't like what he has to say, at least start creating your own list of issues--things that are important to you as a man in the USA today--and explore the candidates' positions on those issues. You owe it to yourself. You owe it to your family. You owe it to your country.

How Much Longer Can You Keep Bull****ting Yourself?

Every goddammed group of crack pots, wing nuts, and lunatic fringe junkies seems to be far better organized and effective than us !!!! The average American male !!!! What the hell has happened ??? How did we all fall so far off the cliff ???

The answer is very simple. Laziness.

We collectively became numb, docile and lazy, placing our entertainment and material needs far above the civic duties we needed to regularly practice to keep our country and society from unraveling.

The true kick in the ass here is that all these entertainment and material needs we have become addicted to have in fact become the cause of our societal problems.

This is not quantum physics, gentlemen. We simply need to start telling the truth to each other about how we feel, and what we have been hoping for.

We have infinitely more in common than we think.

If we do not begin to communicate, network, organize and help each other, all we have been lucky enough to inherit will slowly be taken away from us.

Please get involved right now !!!!!

How Google Makes Us All More Stupid

Google Mission Statement... To organize the world's information and make it universally accesible and useful.

Have you honestly ever heard of a bigger crock of sh*t in your entire life???

Unfortunately we have all turned into opium addicts now, with the internet becoming our drug of choice. Two single young men (Larry Paige) and (Sergey Brin) are today worth about $30 BILLION DOLLARS because of this insane addiction to using Google when searching for information.

What these two gentlemen choose to do with the immense power, influence, and privilege that their fresh billions will afford them, still remains to be seen.

History has shown us that typically, when great fortunes such as these were suddenly accumulated, they were often times cloaked behind unscrupulous people, and sinister circumstances.

Paige and Brin are only 33 and will have many years to do right or wrong by their good fortune.

THE BIG PROBLEM WITH the Google boys' IDEA IS THAT INFORMATION IS NOT KNOWLEDGE, AND KNOWLEDGE IS NOT WISDOM !!!!!

How much information, technology, and data do you need splattered through your brain cells before you understand that the more information people throw at you, the less they want you to know?

Information, data and technology must always be delivered with an incentive or they quickly disappear.

The incentive for today’s technology is to constantly find new ways to separate you from your money by consuming their goods and services. How can any of this be helpfull??

God Bless Bill Gates for having the balls and conviction to do good with his billions and at the same time, do it so well that even Warren Buffet chose to follow his good example, by combining their fortunes together.

These types of events, are indeed quite rare.

Unfortunately, do you realize with all the bullsh*t and hype surrounding the internet, the largest, most successful, most profitable segments of this technology are online pornography, and online gambling !!!!!

How pathetic and sad is this ?????

Around the age of forty, most men begin to confront the painful reality that they might not be getting what they had hoped for from their life and work.

ITS OK !!!! THESE FEELINGS ARE NORMAL. DO NOT QUIT YOUR JOB. DO NOT COMPLETELY CHANGE CAREERS. DO NOT START SPENDING LIKE A DRUNKEN SAILOR. DO NOT DIVORCE YOUR LOVING AND FAITHFUL WIFE FOR SOME BIMBO.

You simply need to get together with the guys and start talking things through a bit. You will soon understand that fellowship and some bonding time with the guys will fill this stature, status, and materialistic void.

Get your soul back, get your balls back and just start getting involved.

We are not asking for any long-term commitments. We simply want to hear from you and listen to your stories.

Share your wisdom. Tell us what you have learned.

Let us all learn and become wise together.

Go Bears !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Midwest Legions

We have all become trapped in the middle of a militant, prefabricated culture war that has effectively castrated most of the young men in America today.

It has us divided between liberal and conservative, democrat and republican, and it is mostly nonsensical bull****.

1% of the population now controls over 40 percent of the wealth in our great nation.

This is fantastic news if you are in that 1%, but if you are not, isn't it about time to get up off the recliner and be serious for a minute. After all, football season is almost over anyway.

70 million baby boomers are beginning to retire now. Most of them are not prepared financially to do so. Where will the money come from to pay for the social security and medicare benefits the government has promised these retirees ???

From you and me !!!!!!!!!!! That's who !! Anyone who believes that hardworking Americans will not face financial hardships beyond their control is living in a fantasy world.

Those bellwether companies and corporations that nourished and sustained our Midwest region for years are now exiting in droves to places like China and India for higher profits and cheaper labor.

Nothing can reverse this trend.

Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa are home to over 4 Million men ages 25-45.

Unfortunately the richest 40,000 of these men now control more wealth and power than the other 3,960,000 of us.

We do not disparage these men nor do we wish to unfairly redistribute their wealth through unfair taxation. We would be delighted to see most of these 40,000 men become involved in our organization, for the tremendous knowledge and benefits they may offer. We admire the fact that many of these men are indeed self-made millionaires.

Unfortunately, despite the fact that these highly talented, successful men are prospering, the rest of our midwest region, and the nation is going down the tubes fast.

WE WILL ORGANIZE AND RECRUIT A MIDWEST CYBERARMY OF ONE MILLION MEN !!!!

IT WILL BE ONE OF SIX REGIONS CALLED MMC'S OR MILLION MAN CIRCLES.

This socio-economic monster will easily control any company or corporation, and determine the outcome of any political agenda.

The prostitutes monopolizing both sides of the mainstream media today could give a rat’s ass about the future of the United States. Money is their religion, and if our great country deteriorates for them to profit, they will gladly sell us to the highest bidder.

Many of us who lost our asses in the tech crash still feel the pain from that debacle.

We learned the hard way that no matter how financially savvy we think we are, the stock market is a game for financial insiders, controlled by an elite few.

Millions of militant Islamists around the globe, hate us with unparalleled levels of passion and intensity.

The government controlled media complex seems content to allow these groups to have free reign throughout the world.

Our region, the Midwest, is often referred to as the heartland.

It has provided food, machinery and manufacturing for much of the nation and the world, and has enjoyed an arguably robust prosperity for well over 100 years.

The children of the heartland immigrants that settled our area are today faced with challenges very different from those encountered by their parents and grandparents.

Simply stated, men our age group, 25-45, must unite together around a few key issues RIGHT NOW before the world our parents fought for and loved crumbles any further.

We must prove to them that we are unwilling to collapse from within. We will not give away everything that they worked and fought for.

Let us unleash the power of America's men in a thunderous roar heard throughout the world !!!! We will control the agenda, not an elite handful of narrow billionaires fueled by greed and power.

If the average man understood how few people are controlling the agenda in America today, they would no doubt act quickly.

We owe it to these hardworking people, our ancestors who suffered before us, to figure out how this new game is being played, and how we can win.

Was all their blood and toil in vain ???? Let us hope not.

We Understand You Want to Make a Lot of Money

Many men in their 30's and 40's have already spent a considerable amount of time trying to establish their career and finances.

For those of us that are married and raising children along the way, the stress and pressures can sometimes be overwhelming.

This is precisely why you need to spend some time with the guys, not only for recreation and leisure, but to bounce ideas off of each other.

Their isn't much that our men have not experienced, and the more you network and communicate with them, the better informed you will become about how to best utilize your aptitudes and abilities.

So sign up !! get involved, and don't be so afraid of breaking away from your everyday 9-5. We are a veritable wealth of information both personally and professionally, and we welcome your contributions and input greatly.

Thanks Guys,

Frank

Don't Die with Your Music Still Inside You

Many of us should be working for ourselves. The middle class is becoming an endangered species.

Corporate America has become a temporal jungle of short term profiteers. We are all left behind to try and figure out our place. Many of us work very hard, spending much time away from those we love. When the politics, late evenings and battle wounds become unbearable, we are forced to take action. Many of us have no choice but to become self employed. This is a very good first step toward freedom and liberation.

We need to band together and share our collective knowledge and information in order for our small businesses to survive. We have much to learn from each other. Remember who we are. Remember what our forefathers sacrificed for us. We must all come together with their spirit and determination to ensure a good life for our children and grandchildren. Our towns, villages and cities face enormous challenges. Tell us how you feel.

The Warrior Inside

Each man has the warrior buried deep inside his soul. We stand tall today, only because our forefathers paid the price in blood and hard labor. Most of us go through the routines of daily life with material comforts our forefathers could only dream of. The battlefield today is the mind. We must conserve our physical and emotional energy for life's most challenging moments. When does the warrior call you to stand tall? Are you prepared for the battle physically and emotionally?

Fatherhood Challenges

Why does there seem to be a disincentive in our society for men to become good fathers/family men? Men in general, but particularly fathers are rarely portrayed favorably by the media. How does this negative portrayal effect our emotional well
being ?

Focus

How difficult it seems to remain focused in a world constantly filled with distractions. Stature, Status, Materialism and a constant barrage of sexual innuendo make it difficult to stay the course.

Time, our most precious commodity is often in short supply. How do you spend your time? How often do men have the opportunity to spend their time with the people and activities they truly enjoy? Please share your thoughts.
