Welcome back to the 10-year anniversary of the 21 Convention in Orlando, Florida, 2017. I am particularly proud to announce the CEO and the Executive Chairman of the 21 Convention and 21 Studios, a very close personal friend who I'll be speaking about in a little bit as well as part of the keynote address for this convention. At this time, please give a warm welcome and applause to Anthony Dream Johnson. Thank you gentlemen for the warm welcome. The title of my keynote address, as you can see, the future is masculine. Throughout this talk, we're going to explore what exactly that means and at the end we'll revisit it. Remember the title, it's important. In my judgment, feminism is the ultimate hate and supremacist movement today. We're going to also explore this statement as you might have guessed. Read this closely because I mean it. This is not just, it's not exaggerated. I'm doing it and saying it because I believe it's true.  But I'm also dead serious when I say this in writing and in speaking. Since I found the red pill through Nicholas Cloud and attendee here and last summer in 2016, I went on to give a presentation at the 21 Convention of Miami, Florida called Building a Universe for the Ideal Man. It was a visionary talk for the future of this company. It's something I stand behind to this day. It's been about a year since I gave it. Since giving that talk, leading up to it, giving it, and then after the fact, I continue to explore the red pill, particularly the work of Rilla Tomasi, a speaker here at this event. One of the things I realized, had a sneaking suspicion of before it and then after the fact realized more fully, is that that vision was fundamentally incomplete. And finding the red pill and digging through the creation aspect of this purpose of this company led me to believe that it was fundamentally incomplete. However bad-ass it was and however much you guys would benefit from that in your own personal lives by becoming a more powerful man that's more game aware, red pill aware, healthier, fit, wealthier, and all the above. So it was incomplete as much as I enjoyed giving it. And so, before I continue, a major theme of this talk, as you can imagine, Building a Universe of Able Men, is creation versus destruction, and how these two interact. Directly related to that and as a follow-up, I've been thinking a lot about being pro-masculinity. I put specifically pro to not rip off Rilla Tomasi and positive masculinity, his own initiative with that. For my purposes it fits quite well. Versus being anti-feminism, challenging it, criticizing it in any way, shape, or form, what the mechanics of these two are, and how they interact. In thinking about it over weeks and months, I realized that they are two sides of the same coin, in my opinion, and strictly focusing on one and not the other is problematic because they're compatible and complementary. They, at least currently, feed into each other and are closely related. Although I will point out that I do disagree strongly with the idea that the man-a-sphere or any component of it, Redpill, PUA, McDow, Merez, this is not the flip side of feminism. It's not just the inverse or inside-out of it. They're very, very different. So when I say that they are two sides of the same coin, I mean it more in how they interact, not that it's just like, well, feminism's for women and the man-a-sphere is for men. No. But they do have interaction. I also believe that focusing strictly on one, either one, is a confrontation avoidance strategy and it's also context dropping. They both exist right now in the West at the same time. Focusing on positive self-improvement for men, being promisculent promisculinity in a genuine conventional traditional sense and fighting feminism and combating it as the man-a-sphere does in various mechanisms through each branch. The four I mentioned that I'm highly intimate with at this point or familiar with. McDow, Redpill, PUA and Merez, the men's rights activists. So I don't believe it's, in many different ways, it's confrontation avoidance, focusing on one or the other. It's not good.  I believe right now that feminism has so far infiltrated the West that we're basically fish and water. Feminism is all around you all the time. It's even in this room, although dramatically less so, which is fantastic. It's like galt sculpture up in here with feminism or as in opposition to it. So it's all around us all the time. It's like fish and water. It's so far penetrated society that we don't even recognize that anymore even if you're opposed to it, openly and consciously and directly. That's how I was from about late 2009, maybe early 2010, when I first started looking at the feminism and being increasingly opposed to it, knowingly, didn't like it, thought it was complete bullshit, every element of it I could identify. However, when I found the red pill in the work of Roland Tomasi, I realized how much feminism had affected me in ways I didn't realize, even making fun of it, ridiculing it, thinking it's complete nonsense, particularly the third and fourth wave that we're more familiar with, at least I am in my generation, I'm 29. And I believe many men today are still stuck in that, in this room a lot less.  They haven't moved to the point where they really understand and get a high altitude view on how far feminism penetrated your life and the world you live in in the West. It's basically about 100% infected everything we have and everything you interact with on a daily basis.   By the way, I curse a lot. I'm trying to minimize that. We'll see. I get close to Christian McQueen sometimes so we'll see how this works out. I mentioned that feminism is not just a hate movement against men. That's specifically what I'm getting at when I say that at the beginning of this talk. It's also a form of supremacism, specifically for women. And this has been, I believe, since day one of modern feminism, since the first wave, about 100 years it's been around. It's never been about equality, which is what they'll tell you. I first put out the ideas of this talk to a new friend of mine, I met about a year ago, someone who is young, highly intelligent, I go out with him all the time, maybe a woman. And he's someone who's highly familiar with the man-sphere, but particularly the POA community. Sharp young guy. He was, he had an immediate, knee-jerk reaction that influenced this talk when I discussed criticizing feminism and what we'll get into more throughout this talk. His initial reaction was rapid too and articulate.  But the minute I criticize feminism, boom, immediately. And there's a sharp young guy that is a good thinker, he thinks outside the box, does not believe everything he's told and is willing to go against the grain in a lot of areas of his life. So it was interesting that immediately when I criticized feminism, he jumped to women's rights, which I think has never been the case. If it was about equal rights, why would they call it feminism? They would have called it equalism or something along those lines that made more sense. I don't believe it's ever been about that. And in particular today, if you ask a feminist in the West, in the United States, in Canada and so on, what rights do I have as a man that you don't as a woman?  They start, they get, depending on the women, but they'll get angry because they've had equal rights for a long time, at least in the United States and elsewhere in the West. So if it's not about why is this young man, you know, in America today in Florida, talking about women's rights with feminism, if they've had equal rights for a long, long time, I don't believe it's ever been about that. What they do over time is goal post shift, which is a logical fallacy and informal one, I believe. So each wave that goes by, they move the goal post, they move the markers of what's going on, and yet they still claim it's about equal rights. I'm not sensing it's a smokescreen in my judgment. The waves in particular, I believe, have been a march of supremacism over time. Beginning with the first wave, it was better concealed then and less explicit, but as time has gone on, it's now spiraled out of control into third and fourth wave feminism, which is so toxic that the Overton window, the window of discourse, is actually moving in our favor, surprisingly. Hillary Clinton was the first major party, quote, unquote, female candidate in the U.S. history for president, and she nearly became president in the United States. Just earlier this year, I believe, she went on camera for some sort of production studio and proudly declared the future is female and then women, other feminists joined in, the future is still female. This is a person who nearly became president of the United States, 365, 70 million people, half woman, half male. Where did men fit into this? Where's the equality in the future is female? There is none. What is the future is female? What does that have to do with equal rights? None. There's nothing to do with it. It's strictly about women and supremacism. Shifting gears a little bit, the red pill talks somewhat significantly so about things like open cock-holdry and open hypergamy. So open and very explicit female sexual strategy. I believe this not only has basis in female sexual strategy and biology becoming more explicit over time but it's also a function of open hatred against men. Hatred against men and masculinity in particular and then men are the source of it is becoming normalized every year, every decade, more and more and more. This is just one example and our speakers tweet about this all the time on Twitter. You've heard about examples like this at the event. Rola gave a good one with a, he was shopping for a book for his child in the children's section and he was basically kicked out of the store which is pretty insane if you think about it.  This guy was seen as basically as a pedophile. Being a father, buying a book. That happened recently within months, a couple years, not that long ago. Can you imagine a woman being kicked out of a Barnes & Noble store for buying a book?  What about in France? A major in western country, major western country. Their new president, Emmanuel Macron I believe is his name. I believe is called now for within one year to criminalize. Not like some slap on the wrist, criminalize asking women for her phone number.  So which I guess the French are known for, great. This is a major western nation and they want to criminalize and there's some functions of this with women controlling male sexual strategy and so on which is interesting but not my focus here.  That this is going to happen in France and it already happened to my knowledge in a few other European countries I believe Portugal and Belgium. If this can happen in France it can happen in the UK and they have things similar to this already that are not quite as explicit but close. If this can happen in France and the UK it can happen in Canada. If it can happen in Canada it can happen in the US. This is insane. Approaching a stranger and asking for a phone number is a normal human activity. You don't do it every day but there's nothing weird about it. Can you imagine for example a woman being arrested in the United States or anywhere else in the west for asking a man for his phone number? It has to be the pinnacle of absurdity. Why isn't it that way for men? Because feminism is a hate movement and supremacist movement and open hatred is becoming normalized. When I found the red pill it's a by the way a it's the original, the red pill movement as we're talking about in the Mandosphere is the original post matrix movie trilogy internet use of the term. It's not the ultra disambiguated or distributed use that's going on today. In the internet people are saying anything is a red pill. My philosophy is a red pill. This political ideology is a red pill. The red pill we're talking about was used by this movement since about 2002. When I'm talking about the red pill I'm talking about that component that branch of the Mandosphere specifically. Its meaning is that it's the truth about men, women and how we interact sexually and otherwise. It comes from the matrix trilogy to this point. But one of the things I realized in thinking about this presentation and about how feminism affects men and what it is and the culture we live in is feminism I think a lot of men view it as at least with a quick thinking they think of it and view it as like the matrix excel matrix itself from this movie trilogy I don't believe that's accurate. The more I thought about it the more I realized I came to believe that as a character Agent Smith from that movie trilogy is an analogy for feminism it's not the matrix itself so this is the face of feminism closest from Milo, he made this popular feminism as cancer but in this movie trilogy Agent Smith is similar to that as well Zika virus he's spreading out of control the matrix and the machines no longer control them they can't stop it similarly women today no longer have any kind of directive if they ever did over feminism it's completely out of control the honey badgers like Christina Hoff Summers Dr. Christina Hoff Summers is a good example of this she's a feminist but not a feminist and she produces some good work she's not just routinely ignored she's universally ignored by feminists they don't give the slightest of fucks about what she says we do, we're interested in it unless so there's little to no desire or ability to self-police at this point or reform it which is what Christina Hoff Summers is trying to do, has been trying for a long time there's been like no progress on that every year, every decade feminism gets worse every wave and like cancer I believe feminism is a disease of civilization which according to this definition the disease associated with any, with the way a person or group of people lives we talk about that a lot of this conference these diseases, not this one in particular but in general out of the 14 this being the 14th we talk about the paleo diet, we talk about how men excuse me men and women, humans over time have evolved and when we stray from our evolutionary past significantly it causes problems cancer, diabetes, heart disease all these different things that are not that hard to prevent if you respect your own nature and your own biology and now it's evolved over a couple hundred thousand years so on going back to the infection rate being 100% I believe this is extremely dangerous much more so than most men appreciate including men who really don't like feminism you hate it, you understand its complete nonsense to some degree whether that's high or low or anywhere in between long term and even short term in some ways it represents extreme danger to the west the United States and a free and rational society in our future I want to take a step back real quick as well when I say that feminism is an enemy from within it's something that I don't believe we've faced before if not or if so in a long long time radicalism for example gets a lot of criticism for being threat to the west they don't like us, they're like in jihad wherever you think about this by the way it's not particularly relevant right now the general consensus or general discussion of it right now radical Islam doesn't hold a candle to the infection rate of feminism its influence on the west is minuscule in comparison feminism affects everything it's an enemy from within the United States and within the west, not external it's all around you all the time in your own head and your own home and your own family, all around you and I think this is important to keep in mind when we think about the world around us outside of the United States and outside of the west this is a major enemy from within that hates men supports female supremacism and is doing catastrophic damage to the west at every level and to every person shifting gears I think the internet is unbelievably fantastic as it is and as much positive change as it's affected and improved our lives in all these different ways it has a strange effect to make people think small in my opinion so I've seen in the red pill for example there's been discussion of creating a smartphone app, an iPhone app, Android app I've tried the exact mechanics of it but just thinking about it on my phone, on my iPhone this is and obviously it has interconnectedness between thousands potentially millions of men but it's so small like what happened to thinking big? we're thinking like literally on your phone now at this point, an app is more than this in code of course but it's small as compared to something like a physical live event like you guys here in Orlando, Florida this is huge well, relatively speaking 100 and something people compared to an iPhone app like this or you like this, getting tech snack this is crazy, crazy awesome and crazy big over 100 people, 4 days long 5 days long, 6 days long depending on if you're a speaker or not this is a major event it's the world's first major gathering of red pill speakers and PUA speakers from that element of the man's sphere at the same time and other speakers from outside of that that are fundamentally pro-man and pro-masculinity in a conventional traditional sense this is a big deal you guys are feeling that, you'll be feeling that for days again though with thinking small people think now facing a severe or extremely dangerous enemy like feminism we're thinking talking about mobile apps to improve our lives or combat this we're hyper connected the internet I think also makes us think well, people get ADD anyway from a lot of things but we think that thinking long term is in weeks and months and maybe years at best and that's probably being generous another one too that really I think you guys will find this amusing especially if any of you have online businesses change the world on the internet has become a meaningless phrase a big pal account is changing the world which is absurd not to downplay small businesses which are extremely fucking important but to change the world you're talking about hundreds of millions if not seven something billion people a lot of people if you mean that literally or in any major sense so I think this has become a meaningless statement and the internet the longer it goes on the more meaningless this becomes because everyone's doing it as opposed to thinking big thinking big to me when I think of it anyway at minimum I'm thinking about civilizations organizations, political unions like the United States of America social movements I'm thinking in decades, thinking in generations I'm thinking in the next century one of my heroes is Dr. Ron Paul former congressman from Texas three time presidential candidate I'll never forget hearing him say when he was on some major news network MSNBC or Fox News or something they were asking about his campaign in 2012 and he had to stop them and say I'm not just running a presidential campaign I'm trying to change the course of history he was dead serious that's who he is this is not new to him but of course the news commentators it's going over their head this guy is serious he's not kidding and he has a significant understanding of the dangers facing the west but this statement to me is thinking big truly and legitimately as opposed to something like change the world which is being abused and its values is being inflated out of control to the point that it's meaningless but change the course of history or change the course of a generation this is thinking in multiple decades this is serious thinking I want to shift gears a little bit again but continuing on the same thought thread I want to talk about the waves of feminism before I get into the first wave I want to have Nicholas Cloud comment on the first wave his understanding of it he's an attendee and a friend and the man who introduced me to the red pill did a fantastic job of it too he's going to talk to you about that because he is so articulate on this issue it's unreal he won't be on camera but you're going to hear him now in the back Nick go ahead so one thing about the first wave of feminism that I've always been interested in is the lack of women's suffrage specifically how the feminist narrative uses that as a vehicle to say the lack of voting agency that women had in the 1900s was a direct case of male oppression so I started researching this using some source documents and I've come to the conclusion that that is an absolutely false narrative and I just want to share a few key points that I have discovered in my research that I think you'll all find interesting first of all in the 1900s our government in the United States and England is very different than we look at it today government was very limited it didn't have the reach that our government has now and the way voting worked was that voting was seen as an administrative function not a right it was an apparatus created by the state it was not an inherent right given to anyone specifically it was designed to be exercised in the same vein as jury duty Chief Justice Marshall who is the fourth Chief Justice of the Supreme Court the idea that voting or the granting of the franchise has always been regarded in the practice of nations as a matter of expediency and not as an inherent right so the idea that we have today if someone said is voting a right and say yeah absolutely they didn't think that back then it was not a right so then the question is well if it's not a right then why were only men able to exercise voting to control the operations of government and there are some reasons for that first many of the operations of government is that there are some things that only men can bring to the table for example, putting out fires making arrests these were seen as civilian duties there were not professional fire departments and police departments up until like the mid late 1800s these were civilian duties quelling riots being part of the militia bearing arms during war these were all things that men had to bring to the table and since they were taking on the risks of the society and the mitigation of these risks second only solvent self-sufficient citizens could pay taxes in the 1900s women could work they could own property they paid taxes if they were single and had they could own their own businesses everything that a man could do they could do once they got married they were seen as a family unit they became the head of the household and the man took financial responsibility for everything in the house so only the man was paying taxes therefore the vast majority of income flowing to the state was provided by men so since men were providing the vast majority of the financial support for state operations it made sense that men would have the vast majority of voice when it came to the direction of that money in society third reason laws protected women at the expense of men or granted them specific privileges that men did not have men financially they were obligated to support their wives as long as they were married it was such obligation they didn't need to bring any money to the family at all poor husbands well all husbands but specifically poor husbands were liable for the debts of their wives but wives were not liable for any of the debts that their husbands incurred so if your wife went out and had a gambling problem you were automatically liable for her debts husbands were always required to pay alimony wives were not required to pay alimony at all during this time even if the wife initiated a divorce for some reason she was not required to pay alimony women were exempt from the repercussions of initiating violence something called the inalienable right to strike without being struck so she could strike anyone she wanted for the rage whatever in public she could not be held criminally liable for that a man could and they were obviously exempted from the physical duties of the state going to war putting out fires these types of things at this time egalitarianism was explicitly rejected people understood that as an evolutionary step the differentiation of the sexes brought different things to the table men were seen as the guardians of the state of the people in general women were seen as the guardians of the home they viewed this as a natural evolutionary leap so then what was the thrust here why did the women's suffrage movement started what was their ultimate goal and this is a quote that comes directly from an anti-suffrage pamphlet at the time during the early 1900s where they interviewed a working woman who had her own business and she said if I could vote I'd sell my vote to the person who would give me the most money for it and that really wraps up the whole thrust of suffrage during that time was the transfer of wealth and it's no coincidence that at this time the purpose of government started to shift from being a very limited source of protections of rights to the massive wealth redistribution engine that we see today this was the seat of it so this is what I found in my research it's still an ongoing project but I thought it was very apropos and Anthony graciously has allowed me to share it thank you very much Nick his articulation of that is like really really good and I'm really really happy he's able to do that for us thank you Nick very much I want to make clear before continuing and we're going into some of the issues he just discussed I'm not advocating like I know Roosh from the Manusphere is advocated like modifying the constitution which is a huge process I'm not in favor of that I don't even think it's a good idea necessarily it's probably a bad idea it doesn't need to be done though I think it's the bigger point nor do I yeah do I think that would be a good direction what I'm saying and well this is a theme we'll see throughout this talk is that I believe everything feminism has done has been done in the worst way possible I think the thrust of what Nick was saying is that women getting the vote was done in the worst way possible in the sense that it was done with complete disregard for biological differences and how that manifests and writes in responsibilities and that's what he was talking about I think it's Root he's not the only one in the world talking about this obviously and I always found too that the first of the feminism being criticized like this is highly unusual at this point as well usually again we see it only the Overton win is holding it a third and fourth way of criticism but the first is hugely problematic as well there's a YouTube channel it's pretty big called Black Pigeon Speaks that has also discussed this issue I don't necessarily agree with everything in this video why women destroy nations slash civilizations and what goes on and he also actually makes it very clear inadvertently and unintentionally he's not saying women are like vicious like let's just destroy everything when this video was taken down as you see on the right by YouTube recently it had about 1.3 million views it wasn't taken down it's been censored in a very clever way to manipulate or dramatically hinder its ability to impact the internet and it was obviously doing very well it had 1.3 million views but now I believe over a year at this point this is pretty recent maybe a month or two ago it was taken down or put in this digital ghetto their clever censorship of videos like this what they actually say by the way YouTube owned by Google is that videos like this put in the state do not necessarily basically that means they do not violate their community guidelines they do not violate the terms of service especially when he uploaded it and published it they don't violate anything like that it was simply seen as maybe offensive like it's saying to some audiences this is what they do with content they don't like that they want a censor in silence they don't call it that it's too explicit it would be too obvious so they have to manipulate it like this to wreck a message like this where he's just speaking exercising his right to speak freely about a complex issue that is like a sacred cow at this point woman voting so look this up when you have a chance you can still find it on YouTube by going to Google you can't find it on YouTube anymore it's no longer in the search results you can't find it on this channel the view count's gone you can't even click through to this channel from it that's how they basically removed everything so it's a static video it really sucks there are other pretty well known YouTubers as well the look at these issues critically and are open-minded to at least looking at it rather than treating it as a sacred cow woman voting and nothing can ever be done nothing can ever be said about it in the negative sense Stephane Moline is a good example of someone else who looks at these issues and is not afraid to confront them the second wave I think James DeMore is an excellent example of feminism basically forcing women into the workplace in the worst way possible with zero regard for biological differences once again the result being as soon as James DeMore suggests that men and women are different he gets fucking fired immediately I think Steve Jobs in particular would be with no discussion of what Apple would think of this or does think of this issue I think Steve Jobs though would be particularly fucking annoyed by this regardless of what his thoughts were on feminism and related issues and by the way how's this James his white male privilege working out not so well instantly fired out the window so this young polite probably overly polite guy very intelligent, very well thought out very well cited, put an opinion piece out or an article basically instantly fired for daring to think different about an issue of women working alongside him at Google and now I think we're now writing the benefits of a hyper-diverse Orwellian ultra-PC corporate culture that punishes brilliant young men like James DeMore like Nick Cloud he's also in the tech industry he's had a lot of comment around this as well so think different by Steve Jobs not so much at Google, he was instantly fired the second you think anything unapproved getting into the third and fourth wave the third and fourth wave the fourth wave of current are such a cluster fuck I'm not even sure I need to address it but I thought I would do a little something at least again the over into window is shifting in the right direction feminism is so out of control let's pause actually too the idea that feminism as we've discussed now the first and second wave was this pristine angelic origin and then it kind of spiraled out of control just by accident is bullshit it's been toxic since the start it's never had a real genuine regard for differences between men and women and how we're going to interact and how we have interacted for hundreds of thousands of years so the third and fourth wave in my opinion and my judgment are predictable this is an exponentially every wave gets more fucked up so this isn't a surprise it should not have been a surprise anyway and probably would not be to men from around the first wave so on the far left we have women wearing vagina hats marching in our republic's capital great I'm sure your grandmothers are really proud the future is still female you tried to force in my opinion a very horrible female candidate into the president the opposite of the president he lost but the future is still female fuck males fuck men right who cares collectivism I believe the use of women's rights equal human rights or human rights but you'll never hear a feminist say that men's rights equal human rights right no it's just women's rights so human rights notice it doesn't say women's rights equal individual rights it's human rights in my opinion with feminism and elsewhere human rights is a smoke screen to inject collectivism into the discussion they never say individual rights it's human it's more a it's a slightly broader term and it conceals hidden intentions then we have a father in the far right being a fantastic father by wearing a bra with a sign on him that says go ahead grab my pussy this is his son that he's I mean so this father I don't want to beat up on him too hard but this guy is so brainwashed as a male feminist he's happy to take his son march around wearing a pink bra I'm surprised he doesn't have a pussy hat on literally a vagina hat like I can't wait for the fifth wave it's gonna be fucking great I want to make a point though that we're really digging into feminism right that's specific I don't believe feminists matter all these women marching we need to observe it be aware of it and understand it individual feminists don't matter not even Hillary Clinton, not that she's a particularly great poster child of feminism not even by their standards but she is a significant, a major feminist figure right Hillary Clinton is 70 years old she'll be naturally of natural causes she'll be dead in 10, 15, 20 years she doesn't matter she's a first place loser literally she lost she's gone, she'll be dead soon her daughter doesn't really matter what matters is ideas which continue over decade years, decades and generations the individuals we need to be aware of male and female both but they're not really the problem the problem is the ideas if they didn't have the ideas and the institutions that are infected by these ideas there's no ability to exert political and social force of their very shitty toxic ideas so feminists don't matter we all die, us too we're all going to be dead maybe not Jolly, was Jolly's there maybe he'll just keep living him and Dave Asprey we all die I'm not here to criticize feminists very much I'm here to criticize ideas that's what matters what I'm advocating for at this point is a full repeal and replacement of feminism 100% that doesn't mean modifying the constitution that doesn't mean removing women's ability to vote I'm not here to say that not for that I am talking though about 100% destruction of the feminist establishment and replacing it with something else something positive I wonder what that could be positive masculine that was a strange cough specifically the title of this talk is the future is masculine I chose that obviously this is interacting with the future is female or still female when you really double down on the fucked up bullshit the future is masculine because I believe that when I found Rola's blog when I first found it in 2015 before my proper introduction through Nicloud I'll never forget looking at it standing out to me in a number of ways the fuckin balls in this guy to make a blog of this title whether he really knew his shit or is this an expert keyboard jockey I remember just looking at it thinking like this guy either is like balls of steel or is this full shit but it's either way it's an epic title so a masculine future for the west maybe for the world ultimately hopefully it's a rational future it's a society based on rationality this guy has the audacity to make a blog about being a male human being but 3.5 billion of us had to be rational fucking awesome it's a positive future look at the guy's focus he went through a whole I'm sure thought process like he's talked about with picking that but he ultimately picked it it's a positive future and I believe that when he talks about conventional masculinity along with the other speakers and traditional masculinity he means it correct in my judgment the future is masculine is also an inclusive future when they say when Hillary Clinton or anyone else the future is female or the future is still female it's exclusive to women, to females they don't give a shit about male they're not even in the sentence, they're in the statement a masculine future is inclusive it doesn't exclude women women by the way love masculinity depending how fucked up they are but almost all of them do they really really enjoy it just like you enjoy experiencing it and expressing it women are very much along for this ride I love women I'm pretty sure everyone here does as well I've built literally my entire adult life of business around this concept whether or not I realized it the future is masculine as a title of this talk and as a thrust for the talk intellectually is complimentary or compatible complimentary from Rolo, compatible from Socrates you guys heard of this event that's what that means the future is female is not complimentary it's supremacism it's hidden female supremacism based on a hatred of men and an imagined vicious toxic revenge it's fucked up and insane the future is masculine is also I believe the beginning of a masculine renaissance that can and will lead to the next enlightenment we were running on the fumes of the last one it needs to happen and if we don't there are serious consequences let's shift gears a bunch of these are great set of characters we even got Andrew the private man a former speaker of this event this event specifically is dedicated to whatever you think of Donald Trump it doesn't actually matter for this specific opponent it doesn't matter we love him love him but hate his policies whatever it doesn't matter we love Donald and a handful of others we're significantly responsible for him becoming president of the United States right now whether you like it or not whether you hate these guys or not I actually love Alex Jones not that I agree with like much of what he says but he makes the internet so much fun like I fucking that's just so Milo tell me holy shit Milo yeah that's actually me with Milo at Milo College UCF in Orlando about a year ago awesome guy whatever you think of Donald Trump as new media and a handful of others these guys literally put that guy it helped in a massive and significant way into the opposite of presidency in the United States which obviously if you haven't heard the news lately was not supposed to happen he had like a 2% chance of winning the country still just can't even cope with it right it's causing a lot of issues out here on the news so these guys I always think of them producing videos audio, blogs, books actually helped accomplish that in a real and significant way without them it might not have happened media as opposed to legacy media or old media mainstream media as we call it now or as it's becoming called my company unintentionally has also in a pretty big way fallen into this new media category as a production company and an event and in podcasts and interviews we're a new media company and my company is based on more more more more more more more I talked to you guys about on Thursday the opening of this event my YouTube blitz in 2013 when I had the crazy-ice idea already having 500 videos on YouTube let me just put out a video every day by hand I'll get it done myself just bombarding YouTube and therefore the internet with videos more and more and more and more I always imagine is beating people over the head like a soft mallet more videos more videos more videos more videos I love doing it and I think video in particular is immensely powerful it's a compression of ideas of content of performance of everything into a camera into a lens that's recorded and repeated literally millions of times over we've had men stand on the stage of a production that's racked up right now 1.9 million views excuse me even Socrates is another good example a veteran alumni speaker he's given a number of presentations of this event I think 6 or 7 at this point maybe more probably actually probably more I'm losing count so many his videos get viewed on our channel just on YouTube never mind anywhere else we have other platforms I think north of 500 times a day these bobbleheads just talking indefinitely for years since 2011 every day every single day that's video it's high quality their excellent presentations their good ideas that doesn't mean they're perfect which is an absurd standard they're really good video is important I also believe drowning your enemies in videos is an effective method to finish them in quantity and quality both are important I don't believe random ass video blogs off your iPhone are going to accomplish that they can help but you need quality too both are extremely important and I've worked at my ass off like nose to the bone to improve the quality of this event do as many as we can make as many videos as we can each presentation even this one will produce one speech will produce 8, 10, 15 videos because of the way we modify them and use them we leverage them we expand their power 21 University is another platform that helps safeguard us safeguard us that Nick Cloud by the way is rebuilding from scratch this guy is like fucking Nia man he sees the code sees the matrix it's incredibly important and we've been building it since 2015 because we were concerned about censorship which is now a huge issue on YouTube and other platforms I was recently banned from Facebook my crime I could show you guys a screenshot of me doing dishes and cleaning are for women of all the shit I post on Facebook and social media I actually got banned for that people don't even believe it until I show them dishes and cleaning are for women this is funny there's a whole lot to it but that's how far censorship has come you can't even post something like that without getting banned off a major website which is fascinating I think there's a whole set of issues but we're going to skip that for now but 21 University represents independence for this company financially and in terms of content and platform YouTube is no longer safe as we talked about we'll actually get into this a little bit later our videos as of last night I discovered we had about 50 demonetized that means on the road to being silenced to being removed like that video I showed you about women in voting so now I thought we might have been able to dodge it but that was I guess wishful thinking our channel even content that from Rolo's stuff, other speakers Socrates it's just getting demonetized which hinders our ability to make money on them which hinders our ability to make more videos to make more events 21 University is a significant push in the right direction we've been doing it since 2015 and now we're getting a major boost to it which is super badass I'm super excited shifting gears once again in terms of positive being pro-masculinity what does the 21 Convention really do you guys will come here with your specific issues and problems or goals that you want to work on right but how does that affect how does that interact in a coin way two sides of the same coin right in my view how I see it is it makes you guys more powerful in every single way in every way we focus on and I want you guys to become as powerful as possible you guys are the ultimate threat to the feminist establishment making your life as good as you can pursuing your happiness being as healthy fit strong wealthy game aware red pill aware conventionally genuinely masculine for yourself and for your happiness and for your future independent free and happy Mark Sisson actually a health speaker this conference in the past talks about this a lot too not in the same context not bringing them into this too much but people being fit and healthy in terms of disease life expectancy how long you're expecting to live your ability to think there's so many speakers that they can tell you about that health speakers at this event prior and future all these things are super super important no one is well some are more important than others probably but they're all really really important they make you more powerful as a man and a human being which is a threat your your ability to be manipulated and controlled is diminished the more powerful you become this is the good part the really good part so you guys know what 21 studios is almost all of you 21 convention is still a more popular brand but 21 studios is something we launched in 2015 that has functioned as an umbrella brand or master brand for all different shows we have the 21 report interviews 21 report interviews those are behind the scenes upstairs you guys don't see those they see them soon on youtube and 21 university we have the university itself obviously we have the 21 convention live event we have the under 21 convention live event for young men we have them last year as well as in 2007-2008 we have a documentary series podcast a lot of different things and 21 studios is a simple way and an effective way to encapsulate all these different things and bring them together to focus them and help people recognize the different brands as part of the same thing but since 2014 since for over 3 and a half years at this point this has been a deliberate misdirection this is never the actual primary purpose of 21 studios that was basically all bullshed but bluntly on purpose for this moment 21 studios its main intention and main purpose is to be a building or actually a phased series of buildings in central florida to the tune of millions and tens of millions of dollars where we can do these events safely and into the future in our own safe space right more actually more specifically not a safe space this convention is not a safe space its extremely challenging people can get upset usually you don't usually have awesome time but sometimes people don't hear what they want to hear they can get upset the red pill in particular is very challenging to a lot of men it is more triggering and upsetting to people than I've ever seen anything in my life it makes religion and politics look like just miniscule bullshit in comparison and those are serious those are serious fundamental issues of human life what you believe about reason about reality all these different things and I found the perfect architect or project manager for this series of buildings that we're going to build and we're going to have him on stage right now to tell you about what he's going to do Socrates come on stage I always kind of hate introductions like that I'm far from perfect I can guarantee you that architecture is a profession that in all seriousness if you're considerate, empathetic and sincere about what you're doing it makes you feel stupid every day of your life there's always something to learn it's terribly complex and you're designing for a particular place in time that then changes and shifts over its evolution so it's typically a snapshot in time and so it becomes a very difficult and challenging thing to plan for an immediate need that transcends into a future one but that's essentially what architecture does and we need to actually design buildings that actually look at the life cycle of how they're going to be potentially be utilized Anthony and I have had a conversation over the last three, three and a half years regarding culture, politics and the environment in which 21 studios and 21 universities are finding itself and it's a lot of thought and process as far as the business goes at first I would like to discuss a little bit about the context in which we're talking just a little bit of frame for you to understand the general realm in which we're dealing with we live in a tremendous age of opportunity at no other time in the history of mankind have we been able to at an individual level communicate, connect and share information it is literally the digital age 21 studios, 21 university and 21 convention is a ramification of this as an organization and as individuals we would never have met had it not been for this capability it is also the challenge of our time the digital frontier is over the social justice warriors have written into town and they intend to bring along leftist civilization and control with it it is exemplified by a degree of intolerance and repression and the policies of self destruction or personal destruction sorry it is literally a new digital age inquisition we are finding resistance to ideas and concepts and rationality based on doxing literally an intelligence process to identify name, shame and destroy individuals this is no longer about providing an alternative reason alternative argument it is literally violence over reason violence over civility civility sorry excuse me we're also seeing deep platforming Anthony gave a great example of that we're talking about taking digital content and putting it into a ghetto a digital ghetto we look at a number of other things where we're looking at removing opinions from the stage of discourse these are neither healthy or appropriate we're also seeing demonetization removing the means in which people can fund further exploits of ideas concepts and awareness a libeling slandering years passed it was easy to just name you as a hate group to sit down and say you're a misogynist you're a supremacist now those days are passed it's not even enough to do just that we're relabeling you as a hate group and then we're required to treat you as such when you tell somebody it's okay to punch a Nazi you're advocating and moralizing violence you're pushing it you're a peddler of violence these are pimps we also see and have seen historically and it's becoming more and more apparent the physical disruption of venues in the lawful assembly if they can't deep platform you this venue can be interrupted with a firearm bomb threat shaming you before you come to hear someone speak all these things are not only just being utilized they're being celebrated in pop literature absolutely discussed as how to stop thought movements the last one is intimidation it starts to boil down to this is the idea to deter individuals by compulsion of threats either directly or indirectly ultimately it's not the external threats of removing my voice from this platform from that video that's the aim the aim is to remove it from you attending from you from having the thoughts from you even thinking about raising a voice and this is necessary it is absolutely a requirement for your exploitation you are being groomed to be exploited you are being groomed to have your rights and abilities taken they are treating you like cattle and you are going to get milked and processed accordingly and essentially is a form of being a tax cattle as men you're expected to provide and you will and will tax you and you'll be cuffed into servitude the chains will not be literal but you will still fill them this is the environment in which 21 studios and 21 universities finds itself we are going to have to develop a range of applications and strategies business wise to meet our needs to continue to provide the content we have and to give to you I'm going to give you an example approximately a year and a half ago there was very real consideration about actually hosting this event today the 10 year anniversary in the LA studios of YouTube a facility explicitly designed to do this to create content to share that content right and we're not for a reason we're not welcome we're not welcome because we stand opposed to the orthodoxy we stand opposed to some of their central tense and it is not to learn, share, or create content because to be honest there has been a tremendous union between YouTube and 21 studios and 21 universities alright there's a cost involved here there's a physical cost this room, this hotel this money that's going to be overhead costs for organizations such as this that could have been shared in a facility designed to provide and host all this alright we have to create alternatives now luckily enough we're already prepared to do that other organizations actually have to learn how to host and provide venues, assemble people host them and actually conduct the process of actually having a convention such as this luckily Anthony started with this the second one is going to be the higher individual costs and it's not necessarily the ticket price for us to pay for this to cover the overhead the real cost is you'll never hear me talk again you won't hear a Varela you won't hear of the individual we're not even aware of because his voice will be silenced his ability to reach you you to find him or her will not be exist and that is the intention the good news is we've been here before we've absolutely been here before historically this is not the first time we've seen this I'm a massive fan of the Gutenberg press the age, the print revolutionized the world as we know it previously it would take a single scribe a year or greater to create one document which is called the Bible with this invention of the printing press you're able to produce thousands in the same period of time under superior quality of conditions it removed the ability to have an interpreter between you and the word of God imagine the ramifications of that the common man could read in his own language the word of God directly you did not need a priestly class to do it for you that concept would play out moving forward after the revelation of this technology this is where we come across a nice German monk it was a decent fellow and he had some issues with the church's practices of indulgences so he wrote a letter and sent it off it's kind of a litany of complaints and some rationality it meant as discourse an objection to what was taking place the pushback from the orthodoxy was rather extreme and because of the pushback his resolve and purpose was hardened and he was further convinced and it drove the direction of his thought process and created a movement that movement was a Protestant Reformation Torah Park the church Torah Park in Europe in the course of two years that technology printed out over 300,000 copies of his theses and distributed them across Europe and the cat was out of the bag mass communication connectivity to people to ideas unrestricted from a governing class ultimately the Protestant Reformation led to a number of things you're going to recognize them ultimately it was a renaissance for Europe the beginning of the European renaissance it also led to quite literally the age of enlightenment it also led to the modern sciences as we know it my personal pride and joy is that the age of enlightenment the pinnacle of that was the decoration of independence the U.S. Constitution removing tyranny and destroying human rights individual when we talk about our form of government it is a unique study in this evolution and it took several hundred years of tremendous amount of bloodshed to get to that point when you can't argue through words inappropriate means will take hold usually resolving violence we want to prevent that we're not in support of that we mean to discuss and we mean to argue we mean to proper ideas 21 studios is a platform for those ideas 21 studios is absolutely in a similar cultural situation we're facing an orthodoxy that's restrictive and oppressive and the responses is to censor and to mean we also live in transformational age unlike the printing press the ability to digitize information and spread it globally is vastly superior it is unbelievable and this is something that's relatively new it actually I transcend this period I was shocked by my first email after I wrote my first couple of blog posts I was contacted in the middle of the night email comes through somebody read something they found it profound implemented in their life it was somebody in New Zealand I had no idea somebody in New Zealand would read anything I would ever write not only that she was a female I was distinctly writing for men and women were reading not only reading it found it beneficial and helpful I had no idea he escaped my concepts he escaped my sense of reality or potential or potentiality I didn't think it was possible this is the world that 21 studios exist in I don't think any of us had an idea that this was possible the results though of what Anthony has been able to achieve is right now today there's over 125,000 subscribers 125,000 people that will receive a message at a push of a button there's over 20 million views and counting daily of video content and he has a library of over 2,000 different videos of people providing content information that you have access to this is an entire library and it is growing and he has absolutely every intention to increase this likewise 21 studios in Anthony was initially the objections to the orthodoxy of the day feminism and feminism and franchisement was literally a discussion of objections of the removal from central tenets of human nature it was supposed to be men as a discussion amongst people men, women about families about their fitness about their relationships and how we relate to each other but because of the push back this man has gotten greatly hardened by it it has also solidified his resolve it has also given him purpose it also affects a lot of the alumni speakers I know personally I have been transformed by a lot of this I'm not the only speaker that has it is also very much reflected in the current list of speakers we have for this convention it is also reflective in the direction in which Anthony intends to take the organization ultimately I think what you're gonna end up seeing is a masculine reformation you're gonna see not only a rise of men but a return to men I hold a unique place in the 21 studios in 21 convention it's something that a lot of people don't know about I think even people who are close to the organization may not quite understand and so I think it's fair to actually kind of discuss my involvement with that and with Anthony and there are three primary areas in which I want to go through I have a historical presence I was with Anthony prior to actually the conception of it I was involved in a self-help group at the time that he was a member of we had started individually prior to Anthony kind of a mastermind group kind of started doing it we started changing and sharing information holding each other accountable and there was a tremendous growth in not only myself but the individuals involved Anthony was part of that part of that though is that we actually expanded the number of individuals in the group and it started to become fairly large at one point I would have five or six people I'd have them in my house, we'd discuss it over an evening and kind of move on very much like a book rating club it ultimately evolved into about 30 or 40 people showing up at my house at one time it wasn't just mine, there were several other individuals doing it and we'd move from house to house every month, every other month the problem is that it just became too encumbering you just couldn't hold host that many people so we actually started using a local library we'd actually check out their local conference room actually have a fairly size and it was very similar to what you're seeing here just absolutely not nearly as commercially based it was this picnic tables your community library and it was nice it continued and then unfortunately they decided to change the policy and they were going to charge us 35 bucks for the room for two hours I didn't think it would go anywhere guys actually did it they paid for it and it was successful and it started to grow we started getting more and more people I thought it was interesting when we actually had guys from Tampa coming over specifically for the event and I'm like wow that's kind of cool after one of these meetings we're coming out of the hallway we're heading out we're going to grab a bite to eat probably a bear and a 17 year old punk comes up it was in that room and he goes I'm going to blow this up we got to make this thing huge it's got to be epic he kept using that term epic I'll never forget I had not known the individual very well at the time we had known each other socially online I was more aware of his reputation within the group young determined tremendous amount of energy and bullheaded as hell there was going to be no stopping his idea this young punk let's run a conference room let's run a ballroom let's get a hotel and just blow this damn thing up make it enormous I'm in my mid 30s at the time I'm like yeah okay how are we going to do that Orlando is not that big we're not going to get that many people don't worry about it we're going to fly people in we're going to fly people in yeah we're going to make it over a series of days a couple of hours not a couple of you know days you know but we're going to have it three four four days we can even make it a week possibly they'll get hotel rooms they'll fly they'll cover the cost and the ticket price I'm like good luck with that I knew enough to back away let this 17 year old punk go that 17 year old punk just spoke that is that man right there 17 year old kid saw the vision saw the value of the technology and the information and the ability to actually deliver it to people executed on those deals and made it happen for 10 solid years 14 or 15 events globally each passing year I was just amazed I was absolutely dumbfounded celebrated and in no little way ashamed at that time I took a step back that's bothered me bothered me for years I had a chance of redemption several years ago he actually asked me to speak continued some of the thoughts I had and had me in as a speaker I threw myself at him so I had an involvement with him personally through a self-help group how it evolved and the personal accountability bit I had personal fears within culture within society about my relationship with women my potentiality of being a husband being married my rights as a father my ability to father to be a decent father to be a decent man and I saw a culture that was very much at war with this and the more you learn the anger you get and it's very tough to see an immorality to see an injustice being in take take place but not to be disturbed by particularly when it's personalized it's not an abstract immorality to someone else or somewhere else no it's one directed to you so it was not an issue that I sat down and looked at lightly and I had a decision to make I could remain angry or I could become I could be happy and I had a choice and there were consequences to this choice I also recognized that decent men don't stand around and watch history pass them by when they see an injustice I take personal risks sitting here and talking I felt those effects in all honesty to a minor degree but it's a real and never ending threat to my personal welfare and to this point to my family and I'm going to tell you I'm going to lean into it the other the secondary one is I have a very close personal relationship with Anthony and it's not just because we're involved in the same self-health group and we're dealing with the community issues and we had kind of the same journey together which is very very true it did occur but we also shared ideas and it was odd having that disparity of age to have a friendship but what I saw is he had some tremendous things to give an older man energy that just can do attitude he may not have had the knowledge or the wisdom at that time period but he had energy not only that, he executed in that group there was never a harder working individual that man had work ethic and based on that that was a token of my focus and intention it was kind of the cost of it if you don't try, if you don't put your effort out I really don't have a whole lot of time for you I don't have a whole lot of respect so consequently when I talk and see you guys you guys are putting yourself out there to come here to be here, I have time for you and so he did offer quite a bit and a friendship did form based on shared values also, I learned a lot he's a better version of myself in those areas of taking risk of putting himself out there doing things and saying I have faith I can achieve that I was ready to be conservative, very very conservative as an architect you don't want your buildings falling down so a lot of that I was taught, he didn't have that training he didn't get that fear development the other one is and a lot of people know it's been discussed that after the failure of his relationship, his marriage where he was just brutally, brutally betrayed just the depth of injury that was inflicted and the poisonous nature of that relationship which was truly singular I had an opportunity to grab him saw a friend that was going to be hurting saw a friend that was going through trauma he needed to get out and I said you got his place when I said I have your back I meant it at that time I told him you need to get out you have a place, my house is open at that time I just had a two month baby boy, delivered two months early so you can imagine I now have a whole household I have a family of five a newborn and a friend who is going through a failed failed marriage I say this, not in light of my actions I say this because I had an opportunity to repay an immense debt I wouldn't have my daughter today if it wasn't for that 17 year old punk to that man there he allowed me an opportunity to continue my evaluation of society, culture sex, politics my place in it to evaluate my fears and insecurities to develop myself and a platform to share what I had with others with you which ultimately drove my game which ultimately made what I do more focused made me think about things and spend time on these thought processes in ways in which I would have utilized another means because of that I developed a confidence to be able to have the relationships I want to remove the people out of my life that were toxic that were going to take me places I didn't want to be to secure the relationship I have today and give me the confidence to know there isn't a better man or father for my daughter when I look in her eyes I can thank him so he's an alumni of the big white box which is my house and home my friends who have stayed with me been roommates it's always kind of an experience and I was immensely gratified to have him in my house and home for the short period of time that I did the last one which is the point of the introduction is that I'm actually a professional architect by trade and practice the nature of my work professionally is all commercially and municipally based transportation facilities I've designed billion dollar terminals billion dollar concourses and to the extent of revitalizing an eastern block country's air infrastructure system to bring them into the world trade organization to bring them part of the EU I was terribly proud of that the other half of my career has been dealt with very large scale civic and university type projects and we kind of have a joke that there are two types of architects there are architects that know type 5 light gauge timber wood construction and all the other building types building material types I've definitely fallen the ladder these buildings are fairly complex they're bureaucratic in nature you're responsible for organizing an entire and orchestrating an entire team of professionals as well as responding to a multi tiered level of clients and having to manage that communication and project management associated with all that work design's easy I mean it's not easy but it is very, very significant so it puts me in a unique position when we talk about having the need for physical facility to advise Anthony on the built environment what is the construction industry like what is the process for it how do you phase this how do you actually gear towards financing this how are these things done what are the zoning and building codes recommendations of ownership hard soft cost all these sort of things and this is the direction Anthony and I have been talking about for about three years that he's asked me to be fairly quiet about because he wanted to make sure that he was sensitive about going forward but didn't want to reveal it too early but ultimately I want to talk about the response to the 21 University is this is that he's providing a world solution to a first world problem that quite honestly has global and cross generational implications it's not just about improving your life it's about improving your life surrounded with everybody else you know particularly where it matters most your families, your loved ones the people you deal with and ultimately with your family and your children going deeper into it it also relates to multi-generational I'm an older guy we talk about the guys my age compared to the much younger guys and being able to relate and share those ideas that sense of presence that the masculine culture that so much has lost that so many people are striving for that you just sit down when you're in with a group of great guys you just feel at ease ultimately 21 Studios is literally about self-improvement men improving the quality of their own lives improving the lives of the relationships they have, healthier families and sounder children the business model unfortunately is relying on other third-party institutions and platforms, the servers, the databases we also have an issue with the platforms in which they're being viewed from the fact that we have to rent space in a hotel who very well in the future may decide business model-wise that hosting an event like this is probably not in their best interest it also means we can't control the security of this environment we can't control the crowd that's outside we can't control the people pulling fire alarms and we know these things are being done how do we resolve this as far as a business model goes to allow you to have continued content and facilities the conventions we have the discussions in the hallways which are so important not so much what we say here on this stage but the fact that everybody is talking in the hallways after the speeches the actions today we've taken several steps obviously we've been discussing this with thought leaders and peers across the board we are researching comparable businesses and businesses models how are they doing it so we're not reinventing the wheel we've actually visited and toured several facilities last year Anthony actually went out to LA and actually saw YouTube series got a personal tour he was able to see it firsthand actually it was more than a year ago that's when we were actually seriously considering hosting the event there but because of their terms of services their contracts related and the fact that at any time they can delete the content we opted not to do it we also talk about having a pro forma of the actual concept it's a program what would a facility mean and be what would that look like we also talked about the discussion of sequencing how do you do this how do you enact that in most cases most large projects don't happen all at once they're typically phased we discussed that the other is the evaluation and reorganization of the business plan the business model how are we going to do it and Anthony was talking a lot about that ultimately what he wants me to show you today we're getting right to it now is a three tiered vision for the future for us the first one is the smallest, most easily readily available it's kind of the intuitive one it's a live work digital studio production facility obviously we'd be having recording production and server hosting we would want to look at corporate offices for the facility we also want to make it a live work facility Anthony thrives when he just immerses himself in everything he does he's not a guy that commutes to and from different ideas he throws himself into it consequently you want him swimming in his work, his home life everything else all one and I think there's some utility to this he's not the only one that thinks this way a lot of people who do digital media arts there's a lot of this there's a viable market for it not only that you can affiliate lease it has what they refer to as an NOI a net operating income associated with that so that the costs are actually load shared with income string not only as a business model but additionally for these facilities that allows other people to come and use these facilities other speakers who don't have the capabilities themselves would naturally find a home here the second is everything we just talked about in addition to having a stage large enough to hold a conference that's terribly important to us because now we can actually host and secure our own events so we talk about having a number of things that you also live work component of this may include more than just a small executive suite for personal living it may include guest housing to be able to have people come in stay host speakers host individuals and then have that stay and it's something about a think tank about having people come in and discuss in a round table ideas events concepts and be able to hold that internally and be able to host that effectively the last one which is anthony's personal favorite because the man doesn't ever think small is replicating something very similar to YouTube studios which is what you see here a very large central stage other secondary tertiary stages as well but obviously one in which you actually host events and an entire suite for post and production facilities so we're looking at any number of things also looking at funding and so it's terribly important for us to understand that we want to continue to provide great content to continue to control the channels and distribution of that content to produce more content and ultimately have the facilities on hand so we can actually meet and discuss and have that personal interconnectivity that human element be central to what we do ultimately men are going to need to speak up we're going to need to act you're going to need to stand up all right decent men will not be idle to witness to the events and culture before us you don't have to stand here but you do have to enact through your values that's virtuous behavior men are going to have to be respond not only in a self centered manner they're going to have to think about their ruthless interest are at stake we're going to need that support Anthony has decided personally to take that mission on and he means for 21 studios to be a bulwark against this cultural shift against the orthodoxy against repression against intimidation we also seek to refine the services we provide he's always been stellar with an emphasis on phenomenal video production that's going to continue we need the ability ultimately to use language and reason for human discourse the alternative is unacceptable the alternative is uncivilized it is uncivilized for people it is uncivilized for culture and it is uncivilized for people I'd like to thank you for your time I hope you enjoyed the presentation and the vision which we are heading and I'd like to have Anthony take over at this time very very much continuing on this presentation when I was here now you guys saw Socrates his vision and contribution to what's happening let's continue one of the things I think that a lot more men need to realize in the man's sphere or otherwise in the west the west is your home western civilization we need to realize when I say the word home I think most people think men and women both they think of your house your apartment maybe your city maybe where the city you were born maybe the city you live in maybe your home state particularly if you're from a state in the United States like Texas well this is all accurate either literally this business this small media empire as it is right now I haven't traveled crazy amount but I've seen probably 17, 18, 19 countries which is I think way above average to my knowledge so the more I travel and the more I return back home to America, to Florida the more I realize this it's something that gradually I basically figured out and eventually was able to articulate it with my own mind and verbally this is your home this is where we live this is where you were born whether it's in Canada, America Australia, the United Kingdom and so on in Florida, Texas, New York, wherever the west is your home and the more you travel the more you realize this through shared political ideologies cultures, values, religions philosophies and so on the west is your home like Socrates was talking about stand by and watch your home be destroyed period so I believe we have a choice right now at the beginning of the 21st century to do something and that I believe in big part is not just my company and what I've done in my short 29 years on earth and 17 to 29 as an adult but the Manisphere in particular as a result of men communicating for the first time via the internet at such a scale that choice is that you can watch the west burn or you can have fun destroying feminism destroying the feminist establishment I think it's actually fantastic fun and I don't just mean making fun of them I don't just that's part of really fun trolling and shit that's more like funny though than fun the fun part is the hard work is improving yourself is figuring out how other men can benefit from that too to learn it from your experience and vice versa going out meeting women together is a really good simple example that winging each other helping each other out it's fundamentally a choice and destroying feminism I think is the right choice to make I don't want to watch my home burn to the ground burn to the ground that's absurd on like 15,000 different levels it's not just absurd it's tragic beyond words I don't know how anyone could do that willingly I sure as hell can't and hope you can as well because this is a choice we all have to make or as many of us as possible is necessary to get the job done and the feminist establishment to repeal and replace feminism entirely switching gears a little bit why Florida? obviously I was born here, that was coincidental but pretty awesome, I love Florida we're getting into that let's talk about Florida, we're specific Socrates was talking about specifically Orlando in central Florida Florida is the first world tropical paradise this is something I figured out freezing mass off in parts of Europe parts of Europe are fantastic but I don't like being cold people come to Florida, there's about 21 million people as of right now in the state of Florida they come from all over the world and all over America we call you guys snowbirds you guys roll in in the winter and you roll the fuck out in the summer and it's hot, I love it all year long and obviously millions and millions and millions and millions of other people do as well the state of Florida with regard to the 15 independent states in the United States is very business friendly top to bottom the best but it's pretty damn good it has excellent firearm laws which as he mentioned with security I think are very very important but beyond that, Ivan Throne spoke to you guys yesterday, speaker of this conference for the first time he mentioned something very specific in relation to this, I believe I'm paraphrasing, but his statement was that your ability to speak freely is only as good as your ability to enforce it this doesn't mean initiating violence this doesn't mean showing a gun off to threaten somebody or intimidation or anything like that or silence, it means defending yourself or protecting your right to speak and not be silenced in physical real life which is really really rare but at the end of the day that's what it comes down to or it can so I believe firearms are currently important for a huge number of reasons never mind that the United States was founded on these firearms and treason, the principle of treason and the principle of secession which is very interesting and I've talked about it enough but Florida is fantastic with this and this helps with security not all states are, Florida is Florida in my opinion and my judgment has a good political environment that doesn't mean it's perfect that doesn't mean we won't have any major issues it means the probability of that happening is less I'm also second generation Floridian, I was born here Florida in particular is my home, identifies as a Floridian that's personally important to me but as the founder of this company I think it has significance and relevance I'm very happy to be a Floridian it's an awesome state with a lot of shit that can kill you sharks, alligator snakes, all kinds of interesting shit which is badass in my opinion why Orlando specifically number one, as with the 10 year anniversary it's the city of our founding that is important it's not absolutely necessary to build 20 with studios in Orlando but I believe we should respect the founding and it being born here like I mentioned in my opening address this company to me is in some ways like a child that I've taken care of and fathered to the best of my ability over the past 11 over 11 years at this point I would to defend it kill for it if I had to I would die for it but I would also defeat the purpose of running it at that point someone else would have to do it which as of yet no one is able to do that and I don't want to die for it I want to live for it I want to live with it and within it and physically in some ways I want to immerse myself in it as Socrates talked to you about Orlando is also a world city you can look that up this is something I figured out just a few months ago that there's a whole sociological not system but concepts applied to this global city or world city Orlando is a basically a hub of finance, of tourism and history there's a lot going on in Orlando the reason this convention keeps happening in Orlando beyond just me going to college at UCF and starting it here we come back here even I've long been out of college I didn't even live here for a thing worth five years so it has significance there and importance and value if being a world city Central Florida also with regard to Florida this event almost didn't happen because of Hurricane Irma recently it came through the state of Florida caused a lot of damage a lot of problems Central Florida at least within the state is obviously inland, central it's a way above sea level it's not on the west coast or the east coast on the coast we can get storm surge things that cause major problems hurricanes can still cause huge problems but it's a lot better off being in the middle of the state you definitely don't want to go to a coast with a hurricane coming putting a building there, not ideal it can be done you have Tampa, you have Miami but Orlando is smack dab in the fucking middle right where I want it we also have an example to work with from central Florida like Helen specifically this is a picture of Arthur Jones I believe specifically at Nautilus Studios I don't know the exact origin of the picture but Arthur Jones is a hero of mine along with Steve Jobs I ran a number of others he was someone that I've spoken to you about has been spoken about this event many times over including my Jim Flanigan specifically who I to my knowledge worked with Arthur for about 40 years he spoke to you guys on Thursday at this conference and shared some of the experiences with Arthur Arthur by the way is a legendary American badass basically the combination of like Tony Stark Iron Man Indiana Jones and like Hank Reardon from Atlas Shrug this guy was an incredible human being it wasn't perfect again that's an absurd standard but this guy was badass to the bone he died in 2007 by the way just a few days after this first conference he built Nautilus Studios in the 1980s I believe 70 million dollar facility a television studio for his company Nautilus which you guys have probably seen at the gym throughout the United States Arthur was critical and essential in building up fitness clubs as you guys see them now all these different gyms throughout the United States started by Arthur or in a huge part initiated by him Nautilus Studios which is still around you can go check out the building it was 170,000 square feet of space over 35 cameras and again Central Florida the fact that he has so much relevance to this convention is talked about repeatedly I think is also supportive of picking Orlando and it's a good example and we're going to actually tour it for planning on it Switching gears a bit again like I spoke about in my first component of this talk the Manisphere is not the flip side of feminism I believe this is a false dichotomy or a false analogy but it is a response to it every branch in my judgment of the four I've spoken to about McTowell, Red Pill POA community or seduction community and the men's rights activists in the significant way if not entirely their origin is feminism in a greater context it's a response to feminism each one has a specific focus and I think I believe very firmly we all share a common enemy feminism specifically feminism not feminists in the millions it's the ideas and the ideology it's a toxic shithole at the same time men are tribal we're not her thinkers we're highly competitive and we have low end gender preference I bring this up because I'm not here A to make publicity stunts I don't give a shit I care about the truth, I care about reason, I care about science, I care about ideas I care about men and women and individuals and families and children and marriage in the future of this country and the West so in terms of men organized, Jack Donovan speaks fantastically about this in the way of men towards the end of it I don't believe we have in our future as men in the West in this century a large-scale social movement we're probably not going to be putting on dick hats marching down Washington DC anytime soon it's not going to happen and it doesn't need to and that's not what I'm here to seriously that's not what I'm here to do I'm not specifically opposed to that but we need like we've talked about 20 with studios we need to destroy feminism destroy the feminist establishment and we need to do that as effectively and quickly as we can and I believe organizations like 20 with studios and 20 with convention are the key to doing that new media as with getting Trump in office regardless of whether you like him or not is a really good recent intense example of that that's serious change at least in the short term if not in the long term, we'll see at the same time the Manisphere does share this enemy is definitely not united and I don't think that's going to happen but if anyone could do it it's probably me I've brought together speakers from all over the world 14 times now from completely fucking different categories of human life we've had personal trainers speak next to medical doctors, okay speak right next to a fucking dating coach fine, dating coaches are great we have some of this event but to have medical doctors with 20 years of experience actively practicing medicine and PhDs and all these different speakers speak on the same stage literally within minutes of each other sometimes is unreal doing that by the way is extremely fucking hard at least initially it's gotten easier over time as the company has grown and this has been repeated time and time again that doesn't happen anywhere else in the world other people that try that end up getting truly crazy assholes like quacks and stuff these are serious speakers that take the reputation seriously on both sides from the dating coaches to the red pill to medical doctors to exercise physiologists and on and on down the line so if anyone could do it I think I could whether or not it would be necessary to be honest I don't know but if it becomes necessary or tremendously beneficial I want to briefly get into commoner buttocks that will be thrown at this talk number one they're going to say oh you hate women I think this is like the instant knee jerk it's the easiest pot shot number one you hate women is not an argument if you say it I think you're a fucking loser you clearly I think at that point of seeded defeat at least if you don't continue with anything people who say this really don't they just like throw it at you and expect you to shut up it's not true I love women, I love my sisters, I love my mother second cousins second cousins, the women in my life they come and go we'll see how it turns out I really do though like it's not even I don't even feel the need I'm just going to shut up about it I don't give a shit if people say it it's not true they think that again I think they're just trying to derail the argument immediately with as much toxic shit as they can throw at you because they have nothing else to say they're losers another one will be feminism did this and that and it's amazing it's this angelic little movement it's got a little bit sideways but it's so great and we can fix it no you can't, it's fucked everything it did to the extent any of it's useful let's assume some of it is to the extent it did that it did it in the worst way possible every step of the way James DeMores is a recent clear example of that young guy focused on the truth working at a major company related to this company he got fired immediately just for having an opinion that was not approved for thinking, just for fucking thinking and then having the audacity to type it up so that argument with feminism it's amazing you need to defend it, it's all bullshit continuing they're going to say next this is the war on women which is already a pre-packaged knee-jerk response to throw stuff like anything like this even remotely like this what they're doing is they're exchanging feminism with women, they're making it they're trying to make you believe that's the exact same thing it's not, A, there's a lot of male feminists which really sucks but a lot of men get brainwashed into it or legitimately believe it or they have actually a lot of other sexual strategies stuff that Rolo and others talk about where they believe identifying with women will get them laid et cetera et cetera feminism however is not women, this is a lie and they're manipulating you on purpose I believe to manipulate your ability or your desire to protect women this is a bold-faced fucking lie and they know it they want you to shut the fuck up do what you're told, be controlled no it's insidious it's deeply ironic though that feminists will say it's this kind of content and these ideas are war on women feminism is a war machine a cultural war machine that hates men and is a fucking supremacist movement right in the open in the west disgusting, deplorable a bar of word from them, 100% and it's a war on masculinity this is something that you need to remember it's a war on men as well but I believe it, I think I can talk to some of the speakers and work some of this out this is really advanced shit it's really a war on masculinity we're the source of it so they need to destroy us too, they need to control us and emasculate us but first and foremost it's a war on masculinity it's remove masculinity remove the man along with it he's the source of it, get rid of him you get rid of masculinity they also say of course you're extreme you're radicalizing men and this is the shit they fucking do this is a celebrity who at the time of doing this on the left worked for CNN I believe as an independent contractor I chose this specifically this image rather than the direct image that you guys probably saw she posted on Twitter or whatever I don't know if this all happened earlier this year this is a video or a screen this picture actually might even be a screenshot of a video same thing for this purpose of video being taken of this event there's actually a man in it there's probably someone on the far left of it those guys did the lighting, did the makeup they set the shit up they edited the videos, the photos, they published it all a whole team of people who knows 5, 10, 20 or more went into the production of this and now we need to make very clear too it's easy to blame this on politics but I believe that's just the icing on the cake that's a secondary mechanic of how this happened a major female celebrity chopping off the head of a sitting US president as if she had killed him first and foremost it's not a political statement they want you to believe that because they want to hide what's really going on this is violence being normalized against men and a war on men and a war on masculinity that is first and foremost what it is, that's the cake the icing on the cake is that they hate Donald Trump they hate his policies, they hate him as an individual they hate his policies, they hate that he's president they hate his politics and on and on and on the line that's secondary first and foremost they hate that he's a fucking man and he took Hillary's turn or her turn more specifically her being a broader use of the term on the right, so these are people calling they'll call me, this company anyone who's associated with it, extreme and radicalizing on the right we have a major TV show, I think this is in like 2008, the late 2000s women laughing about a man's dick getting chopped off I think it was a wife and then thrown into garbage disposal, spinning around garbage disposal, spinning around ha ha ha ha ha fucking funny, these are the exact same people they'll call us extreme and radical that's funny imagine if you had a wife and you chopped her tits off or a clit in the middle of the night and threw in the garbage disposal would they be giggling?  Yeah? We're going to go there in a second. Anyone over here? Yeah, right there. Okay, you explained your mission fantastically Thank you. So hypothetical, you're 15 to 30 seconds in an elevator up with a man you got to explain your mission and your purpose on the way down you're 15 to 30 seconds in with a woman and you have to explain your mission. Would they differ? So elevator pitch up and down in elevator one of the men with the woman. With the women I'm not really I don't have much to say I hope they join us that's fantastic but I'm not here to I don't believe they're the key directly or primarily to saving the West. Women are incredibly important, we're compatible fundamentally and completely and complimentary but they're not the leaders they're going to save the West I'm saying this is 2010 at this conference on this stage before you even understood why intuitively I picked that up in terms of a man I'm here to destroy the feminist establishment that's my elevator pitch. I have kind of a unique perspective on this my blog specifically written for men obviously by a man for men's interests obviously with a red pill basis to date the majority of my readers are women so when I sit down and say try to help people understand and navigate the sexual marketplace their place in it to improve the quality of their lives, quality of their relationships quality of the decisions they make and ultimately the families they have and the children they raise it's binary gender it's for men and women it's for people and I think there's an element of humanity associated with all that and I don't necessarily differentiate between my advice between a man and a woman that primarily is two different species you know it's two different genders and I think we're vastly more similar than we are different we are different they tend to emphasize some very unique strategies historically evolutionary wise I think it's terribly important to understand that but the message itself is similar very very similar for both we could take one or two more Matt and then I'll go back there so you mentioned as of yet similarly it's going to be built like a brick shit ass he's asking about the fragility of the company anti-fragilities and making it stronger over time as well that would actually be specific to damage hitting it yeah eventually I need to train somebody to take over this company if I die or something I don't think I'm going to die anytime soon but I could die tomorrow for all I fucking know I have enough awareness at this age that's pretty fucking real so I need to train somebody eventually that's not going to happen today or tomorrow but eventually it will happen Steve Jobs died in 2011, I remember the day he died Apple is still, I don't know if exactly it was them but it is now the most valuable company in the face of the planet it's doing pretty well would it be better if Steve was alive? yeah they're still kicking ass though top to bottom so it's doable it'll happen given my age I'm not in a huge rush to do it beyond the fact that I need to get done yeah it's dangerous for me because or the company because I can just die does that answer your question? there might have been another part of it quick drew by and then I'm going back, thank you the building setup will there be more frequent events? oh yeah yeah yeah yeah possibility of remote events? quick question, I'll answer this so remote events will continue I have every intention to do that as long as it's physically possible at this point Australia is probably too far feminist to do one in Sydney like I wanted to do we did one in Melbourne, Australia in 2012 it went awesome doing it at Sydney at this point I think is dangerous financially and then in terms of risk assessment it's not going to happen and it's going to be a while before Australia is healthy enough for us to go there again in my opinion and then frequency yeah so a huge point I want to the more more more more component at the first part of this talk part of this facility being created is to create exponentially more videos when I talk about drowning feminism and videos, we're talking about tens of thousands as of right now we have about two and a half to three thousand on the internet so I want to get that to like 20, 30, 40, 50, 100,000 and beyond so more events every month if we can 21 convention official I want to keep it small, keep it intimate, keep it as superbly high quality as I can but as many as we can fit in a year and then we'll figure out how to staff it and fill it in and we'll do all kinds of awesome shit yeah non-stop production when he says non-stop production I think he's going to mean 24, 24, 7 as well I think he's going to run out like a submarine it'll just keep going going and going that sounds fantastic George Bruno on the back we'll wrap up on the camera but we'll work something out what plans do you have some type of strategic alliance with some of the new media like for instance Alex has been showing us recently a lot of behind the scenes stuff which is kind of me, I've seen Christopher Green do a lot of stuff like that he's bringing on Paul Joseph Watts he's bringing on a lot of names how can we kind of hitch a little bit and get a little more milder so he's asking about and we can both hit this we have four minutes maybe like three and a half you're asking about new media and alliances with new media this is a new media company as well it's much smaller than like info wars like that I put those there in part not just to display them that was bait in part it out of the purposes too but that was bait to lure them in to the extent I want to ally with them I have to talk with them and see I want to be thoughtful with that and not I'm cautious in politicizing the red pill and the manasphere even within the manasphere there are different political ideologies that are going on so I'll do the best I can I think it's pretty damn good and I'll make alliances when and where I can that are truly beneficial mutually beneficial but I also don't want to destroy the history of the manasphere the red pill, the pickup community and anything like that and given this company's involvement with so many different branches I gotta be careful as fuck basically to be honest does that answer your entire question one more got it over here I run a brick-and-mortar family business and I'm gonna show that when I made the decision to come here I did it very tactfully because for me if it gets outed that my relief system you know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna box you back your wallet try to destroy your life put your money where your mouth is and your falls thank you I would like to return the gesture I'd like to return the gesture thank you for taking the risks for being here thank you
