SIGMAGAME - What is that? I admit I am no expert, but I found it interesting – for example – which one am I? You?

On a
not-unrelated note, this comment from yesterday’s post might prove useful for
some of the younger male readers.
"Once
you know who you are, stay in your lane. That’s the path to happiness and
love." -
Vox Day
Read this,
read it again and then live by it.
I wasted a
decade of my youth fruitlessly chasing Heathers because I didn’t understand
what young women valued. I had a good resume, I was reliable, dependable,
hardworking, loyal, relatively smart, etc. These are all traits highly valued
within a male hierarchy and certainly likely to be popular with a Heather’s
parents, but not so much with Heather. You see boys, I didn’t have the
genetics. I’m just an average guy and young average guys - and gals - have to
take advantage of opportunities when they come because opportunities aren’t as
abundant as you think.
When you
know who and what you are, it doesn’t bother you very much when others
recognize it too. If you find yourself getting offended when others happen to
notice obvious and undeniable truths about you, that’s a warning sign that you
might be deceiving yourself about a few things.

Mediocre Death Spiral - Vox Popoli - (impacted by feminism)

Men are no
more welcome in any field that becomes female-dominated than they are in the
women’s bathroom. Any man who insists on entering such a field is regarded as a
metaphorical transgender whose decision to compete with the female majority
there is considered intrinsically unfair. Any man choosing to do so will be
considered an interloper and opportunist by the women and as less of a man by
the men.
As Carter
lays out in considerable detail, this process is natural, inevitable, and
absolutely unstoppable. We’ve witnessed it taking place in our lifetimes in
several fields, and while academia is not something that most of us pay any
attention to, we’ve seen it in books, we’ve seen it in comics, and we’ve seen
it in video games. Once the women get involved in a field and start demanding
mediocrity while simultaneously decrying excellence, the men start walking
away. Competition is replaced by consensus, quality collapses, prestige
vanishes, and eventually the entire field becomes a wasteland of posers and
imposters pretending to be impressed with each other, producing nothing and
selling to no one. Profitable productivity is replaced with political
parasitism off financial hosts, and when the ability to parasitize is
eventually lost, the entire field collapses.
This is
probably a good time to start developing alternative credentials based on
objective standards. They will be increasingly in demand as the value of
academic credentials continue to collapse. Apprentice systems and guilds are
also likely to become more important, as the need to demonstrate an actual
ability to do the work required replaces paper certificates of implied
potential capability.
