The latest joke coming from the left is the belief that there is such as thing as a Progressive Alpha Male. Not really.
Masculine energy builds, creates, protects, instructs, and more importantly, provides. Masculine energy is about self-reliance, auto-regulation, and personal responsibility. Alphas are the pinnacle of masculine energy.
On the other hand, progressives believe “it’s not my fault”. There is nothing masculine about that.
Here is where it gets ugly.
Progressive men are unable to be masculine and therefore despise it. Or they despise it and therefore become incapable of being masculine. One or the other because masculinity is anathema to progressivism.
Example, imagine a man sayings, “it’s not my fault and I can’t do anything about it, please government change the laws”. On the other hand, think of a progressive man saying, “doesn’t matter how it happened, it’s up to me to fix it”.
Progressive men aren’t useful for anything except promoting feminism, and exist to subvert masculinity.
Want something built? Want something protected? Want something provided? Want something created? Who you gonna call? The most liberal lefty man you know?
No.
Paul Plante says
Keeping in mind, of course, that it was they who just took control of the national government on 6 January 2021 and are now our masters.
Scotiagirl says
Scotiagirl has missed something apparently. How does a so called “progressive man” who, in your words, is “unable” or even “incapable” of being masculine manage (again in your words), to “promote feminism”? Speaking as a female who is strongly and unabashedly attracted to alpha males, she can attest it is only they who are solely responsible for discovering, uncovering and, yes, promoting her femininity. No so-called “progressive” man could ever take the place of the alpha males (real men!) in her life.
Paul Plante says
What you’re missing is that down here in the colonies, there is a huge difference between what you are calling “femininity,” what I consider (no, I’m not an ALPHA male and really don’t mix well with them, the smell of testosterone they reek of being overbearing, and I sure as hell am not a PONCEY BOY) to be a wonderful female attribute, and promoting “feminism,” which members, often called with good reason “Feminazis,” would be all over me with snarling, snapping jaws and claws out for daring to suggest that femininity is a desirable attribute in the female of the species, as that would be degrading to you as a woman, to be looked at as a woman.
Paul Plante says
Good luck finding a PONCEY BOY roofer or brick layer, or someone to re-blue the barrel of your shotgun, although it is said that there are places right here in America where it is thick with them, so who knows what you’re going to end up with, Sorin, and for some reason, if they happen to be from the Gay side of town, they are going to let you know about it, as if that were somehow important to anything you wanted them to do for you and it was necessary for you to know they were Gay.
You ever figure what is up with that, meeting someone for the first time and they start off the conversation by saying, “I’m gay, you know” to which I generally reply, “well, good for you, I’m happy myself!”
How do you handle that, Sorin?
Is Romania as chock-a-block with PONCEY BOYS as they say, or is that just some kind of malicious Russian propaganda?
Sorin Varzaru says
How are you replying to my comment that wayne deemed unworthy of being published?
Note: Voodoo.
Paul Plante says
But Sorin, your post was posted or I would not have been able to respond to it, not being clairvoyant, n’est-ce pas?
Wayne said: The latest joke coming from the left is the belief that there is such as thing as a Progressive Alpha Male.
Not really.
Masculine energy builds, creates, protects, instructs, and more importantly, provides.
Masculine energy is about self-reliance, auto-regulation, and personal responsibility.
Alphas are the pinnacle of masculine energy.
On the other hand …

At which time Sorin came on the scene and said: “Want something built?”
“Want something protected?”
“Want something provided?”
“Want something created?”
“Who you gonna call?”
“The most liberal lefty man you know?”
I am going to call the most qualified PERSON I can find, regardless of their sex, sexual orientation or “alpha” status.
end quotes
See, Sorin, there are your own words right there in front of your eyes!
And hence my response above.
And by the way, after your Congresswoman Elaine Luria passed his law the other week making the LGBQT+’s a special class of people above all other people, or above heteronormative white males, anyway, you may not have a choice in who you hire, unless you want to be hit with a discrimination lawsuit if you don’t hire some LGBQT+ to do whatever it is you need being done, even if they are totally incompetent, because it is about EQUITY, now, which means QUOTAS, Sorin.
Sorin Varzaru says
People like you said the same when discrimination by sex, race, religion , etc was outlawed.
Things change.
Paul Plante says
People like me?
You’re cracked, Sorin!
I never said such things before and the claim that there would be quotas for different religions is bizarre.
And there were indeed quotas put in place by race, and Biden is putting into place for quotas for women as we speak.
Were it not for quotas, and the “pass them regardless” policies engendered by the racial quotas, Hussein Obama would have been nothing more than a coke-snorting high school drop-out.
And yes, Sorin, I was a college instructor, and I have had first-hand experience with racial quotas and the “pass them regardless” syndrome that accompanies it, because in large part, it is about the tuition money that comes along with them in the form of grants.
I gave one of those “free riders” the grade he deserved, which was an “F,” and then all hell broke loose because that is just not done – they need college degrees, too, even if they are not worthy of them.
Give them college degrees, even when they are so ******* stupid they can’t spell or do math.
Appearances, what, what!
And that is exactly why they had to go rummaging around over in Romania to find you, because as you yourself have said in the past, Americans are simply too ****** stupid to do the kind of work you do.
You sound very much for that, which of course is your privilege.
As to Hussein Obama, in his first book, “Dreams From My Father” (1995), he wrote that he had used marijuana and cocaine (“maybe a little blow”) but said he had not tried heroin because he did not like the pusher who was trying to sell it to him.
Had Hussein liked the pusher man trying to sell him the heroin, Hussein would have been using that **** too, and as a result, he was made into a president of the United States of America!
Isn’t democracy great, Sorin?
Paul Plante says
And when exactly was it that discrimination by sex, race, religion , etc was outlawed?
Do you happen to have any dates for when all of that happened?
And obviously, while I admit to not being clairvoyant, you must be if you know what I was thinking about anything in the last 70+ years, so it’s good to know that there is at least one clairvoyant still out there carrying on the tradition.
Sorin Varzaru says
“And yes, Sorin, I was a college instructor, and I have had first-hand experience with racial quotas and the “pass them regardless” syndrome that accompanies it, because in large part, it is about the tuition money that comes along with them in the form of grants.”
I am not a fan of quotas, but these are not mandated by law, are something each college/institution decides on. I though you were supporting the freedoms of institutions? No? Or that’s just for the conservative institutions?
Paul Plante says
Sorin, you are so stuck on this BULL**** of “if somebody is not a flaming liberal or a gay, or a queer, or a lesbian, or a bi, or a trans or a Person of Color, then they have to be a conservative,” that you can’t think straight.
In fact, you sound like a ******* idiot with this HORSECRAP of yours about “the conservative institutions,” as if there actually were such things outside of your overworked and fevered imagination, or perhaps you are thinking of how it was back in the OLD COUNTRY where you came from, and you think it is that way here, as well.
And you are ****** stupid, because there are no such things, you moron.
What do you think there are – liberal engineering schools versus conservative engineering schools?
I am a licensed professional engineer and associate level public health engineer with a DUTY to society, whether conservative, liberal, queer as all get-out, gay as a three-dollar bill, to PROTECT and SAFEGUARD life, health and property.
So where are you seeing this infantile “conservative” BULL**** entering into that equation?
As to being a college instructor, I EXPECT you to meet MY STANDARDS, and if you don’t, then regardless of whether you are white, BLACK, brown, yellow, polka dotted, piebald, palamino, gay as all get-out, queer as three dollar bill or whatever, you FAIL, period.
I don’t do “pass through’s.”
And if you don’t like that, Sorin, I frankly don’t give a damn.
You want to promote handing out college degrees like penny candy because the teen-age druggie Hussein Obama said it’s the right thing to do, then have at it.
As for me, my standards are set quite a bit higher than that, and there it is they will stay.
Paul Plante says
Quotas are IMPOSED on us by PROGRESSIVES, Sorin!
Your people.
It is they who feel every single person in America has to possess a piece of worthless paper called a “college degree” so that people like myself have to abandon our own standards and instead simply be another cog in a massive machine that spews out worthless college degrees so people unqualified to receive them otherwise can feel good about themselves, which is what it is all about with your PROGRESSIVES, Sorin.
Scotiagirl says
Scotiagirl says “RIGHT ON!” , Paul.
Sorin Varzaru says
“And you are ****** stupid, because there are no such things, you moron.”
Go fuck yourself Paul.
Paul Plante says
And that, people, is EXACTLY what I dearly love in a LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE and have come to count on in serious discussions with them – how the very instant you show them the numerous flaws in their reasoning, which really isn’t reasoning, at all, nor can it even be considered “reasoning,” which is the action of thinking about something in a logical, sensible way, which is what I do, because as we see here so very vividly with Sorin, a good example of the “breed,” so to speak, his outbursts are emotion-based because everything a LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE does is based on how they feel about something, like papering America with phony college degrees, because it makes them feel better about themselves, that these “underprivileged people” will have college degrees like everyone else, even if those so-called degrees are empty promises, or how something makes them feel.
As soon as their feelings and emotions are challenged in any way, they go ballistic like Sorin and they start foaming at the mouth in a towering rage while spewing vile obscenities and calling down the Wrath of God, as well, all of which, I think, anyway, makes for a wonderful show, which is why I so dearly love a LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE like Sorin and his potty-mouth and the F-word, for the entertainment they provide.
Sorin Varzaru says
Hey Wayne, any chance you can ban me from posting here or replying to Paul? I seem to lack the self control to stop myself from engaging him. It’s like the proverbial train wreck.
Note: Sorry dude, I know it’s a disease, but there is no 12-step program for it. You and Paul both make great points, keep up the good work.
Ray Otton says
Sorin, just tryin’ to reach across the aisle here, find common ground and all that.
You ever go on vacation and forget to water your house plants?
You see what they look like when you get back, all dried up and nasty?
Same, same.
No water, no Plante, no dried up nastiness.
Peace be with you brother. 🙂
Paul Plante, P.E. says
(Delivered sotto voce so as not to disturb the bonding/mating ritual taking place between the PONCY BOYS faction and the MASCULINE ENERGY faction, it just goes to show that those who think there are irreconcilable differences between the two factions that speculators said would prevent their mating and bonding like Neanderthals were once thought incapable of mating with humans were dead wrong)
Sorin Varzaru says
Ha! That was funny! 🙂
Paul Plante says
(As a further aside here, for those interested in the subject from a scientific standpoint, I think one of the very best authoritative and scholarly documentaries on interactions between the more dominant MASCULINE ENERGY faction and the more submissive PONCY BOY faction filmed in the wild here in the United States of America can be seen at this link: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2pnsjb for those who like me believe that a single picture can be worth ten thousand or more words.)
Ray Otton says
Gettin’ a little hot under the collar there Mr. Plante?
Interesting how a person’s true nature is revealed when they’re placed under stress.
Not one, but two homophobic comments.
The local online bully now exposed as a bigot.
My work here is done.
Paul Plante says
(Delivered sotto voce so as to not further upset Mr. Otton who is old and very crotchety, but cut him some slack if you would when he goes off on these harangues against himself where one side of his mind, the good angel side the professionals call it, is haranguing the other side of his mind, the “bad” side, for being an on-line bully that is not only a bigot, but a troll, as well – the professionals say that he is harmless so long as he confines his outbursts to himself, mand the best thing many of us can do for him now is talk very softly in his presence as I am doing in here.)
Paul Plante says
And for the record, people, despite the ravings of Mr. Otton to the contrary, and they are ravings, not the civil discourse of a normal or sane person, there is absolutely nothing at all “homophobic” (having or showing a dislike of or prejudice against gay people) about an ethologist conducting a scientific and objective study of behaviour, usually with a focus on behaviour under natural conditions, such as is the case in the video I linked to, and viewing behaviour as an evolutionarily adaptive trait.
A scientific interest in the behavior of these two opposites, the PONCY BOYS, and the MASCULINE ENERGY side of the equation, is science, not homophobia.
It would be homophobia IF and ONLY IF judgments were being made about the mating rituals we observe in that scientific documentary, and I myself have made no such judgments, even though Mr. Otton has.
And as to dominance and submission, the MASCULINE ENERGY crowd versus the PONCY BOYS who are in need of some domination, Nancy Pelosi’s home town of San Francisco is the BEST PLACE in the world to go, as we see with advertisements for the Best Bondage Clubs in San Francisco, CA., or San Francisco Leather Bars, Sex Clubs and Businesses.
So as we can see, the dominance/submission thing is very big business here in America, at least.
Sorin Varzaru says
Some, maybe most men in US have a twisted perception of “manliness”. It’s a bizarre mixture of being crude, physically strong, “confident” at all costs, even when they got no clue about the topic discussed, usually dismissive of intellectuals, usually sexist and homophobes.
No doubt there are some women who “dig” this, but have you ever wondered why a lot of women, if not most, get their knees weak over italian men, who exhibit little if any of these traits?
But, more to the point of the article, being an “alpha male”, whatever your definition is, has zero bearing on the competence of that person at ANY task, other then being an “alpha male”
Paul Plante says
Have you ever wondered why a lot of women, if not most, get their knees weak over Black men, Sorin?
Consider this excerpt from an article in the Spokane Conservative Examiner on October 10 2014, for example:
If actress Gwyneth Paltrow had her way, Barack Obama wouldn’t just be the president — he’d be a full-fledged dictator with all the power to do whatever he wanted without Congress.
“It would be wonderful if we were able to give this man all of the power that he needs to pass the things that he needs to pass,” she said of Obama during an introduction the Associated Press said was “punctuated by ‘ums.’”
She also told Obama, “I am one of your biggest fans, if not the biggest, and have been since the inception of your campaign.”
When she handed Obama the microphone, she told him, “You’re so handsome that I can’t speak properly.”
end quote
Se what I am saying?
Ray Otton says
Careful with that Leftist tendency to stick labels on people. Especially such a large, diverse group. OK?
Most men in America do not exhibit the twisted perception of manliness, nor are they dismissive of intellectuals, usually sexist and homophobes.
As always, the squeaky wheels get the attention while the vast majority of men just want to avoid the ever more intrusive hand of the government to enjoy life and raise their families with their wives. There’s an entire country full of these guys.
That’s not to say there isn’t a twisted perception of manliness but if you look at it with a clear eye that perception is the one presented by Hollywood in movies and TV and the gaming industry’s absolutely awful video games.
I don’t have time to expound any further because I’m busy not watering a plante in the hopes that it dries up and blows away.
Sorin Varzaru says
“Careful with that Leftist tendency to stick labels on people. Especially such a large, diverse group. OK?

I hope you are right.
“That’s not to say there isn’t a twisted perception of manliness but if you look at it with a clear eye that perception is the one presented by Hollywood in movies and TV and the gaming industry’s absolutely awful video games.”
I am sure that doesn’t help, though I’d like to point out that they have access to the same movies and games in Italy (for instance) 🙂
Paul Plante says
Sorin, it just came to me that when you are talking about men in the US having a twisted perception of “manliness,” it being for them a bizarre mixture of being crude, physically strong, and “confident” at all costs, you are talking about Democrat Andy Cuomo of New York, who was just yesterday the star of a CNBC article entitled “Cuomo accuser Charlotte Bennett talks to investigators for 4 hours, details governor’s hand size obsession” by Dan Mangan published Mar. 15, 2021, where we had as follows:
A woman who has accused New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment told investigators Monday that he was preoccupied with talking to subordinates about his “hand size” and “what the large size of his hands indicated,” her lawyer revealed.
Bennett, 25, “detailed her allegations of sexual harassment and provided the investigators with more than 120 pages of contemporaneous records, as well as other examples of documentary evidence, to corroborate her accusations against Gov. Cuomo and his senior staff,” her lawyer Debra Katz said in a statement.
Katz said that Bennett gave the investigators “detailed information about the sexually hostile work environment the Governor fostered in both his Manhattan and Albany offices and his deliberate effort to create rivalries and tension among female staffers on whom he bestowed attention.”
“One piece of new information that came to light today was the Governor’s preoccupation with his hand size and what the large size of his hands indicated to Charlotte and other members of his staff,” Katz said.
She also said that “it is imperative” that the probe focus not only on Cuomo’s conduct toward women, “but also on the culture of fear, abuse and secrecy that he and his most senior staff cultivated.”
end quotes
And if that wasn’t enough, there was another poor woman whose story was told in the New York magazine article on Mar. 12, 2021 entitled “Cuomo Never Let Me Forget I Was a Woman” by Jessica Bakeman, where we had more as follows:
Andrew Cuomo’s hands had been on my body — on my arms, my shoulders, the small of my back, my waist — often enough by late 2014 that I didn’t want to go to the holiday party he was hosting for the Albany press corps at the executive mansion.
end quotes
As an aside, Cuomo sounds an awful lot like Democrat Joe Biden in that regard, having his hands also all over women, which is not at all a surprise because Andy Cuomo was one of Joe Biden’s presidential electors who put Joe into the white house, because presidential electors vote their values, as Cuomo did in the case of Joe Biden, not our values, which are disregarded in the process if we are not Democrats.
Getting back to that poor woman’s heart-rending story, it goes on as follows:
I never thought the governor wanted to have sex with me.
It wasn’t about sex.
It was about power.
He wanted me to know that I was powerless, that I was small and weak, that I did not deserve what relative power I had: a platform to hold him accountable for his words and actions.
He wanted me to know that he could take my dignity away at any moment with an inappropriate comment or a hand on my waist.
end quotes
That, Sorin, matches your description of him to a tee!
But there is more and more and more, as we see from this from that same poor woman, to wit:
In the course of my reporting, Cuomo never let me forget I was a woman.
At a press gaggle in October 2012, I held my phone out to record the governor’s answers to my colleagues’ questions.
When it was my turn, I asked about a recent report criticizing New York as having some of the highest taxes in the country.
Instead of answering, he took my phone out of my hand and playfully mocked me for the fact that the case was purple.
end quotes
And what the hell is up with that, Sorin?
You seem to understand the mentality of these Democrat ALPHA males better than I – what’s this obsession Cuomo seems to have with the color purple?
Sorin Varzaru says
If it turns out those allegations are true, he’s an asshole that should be canned.
Stuart Bell says

Aaah, the art of presenting half truths and taking things out of context. Great job, want a cookie?
Scotiagirl says
Scotiagirl has been following most of this back and forth among you and she notes that some good points have been made in between all the vitriol. As a woman who has loved and has been loved by men however, she still clings to her own experience: there is no one who can compete with, much less replace, a strong, confident, protective, hard working provider– a MAN who loves and lives his life to and for his woman.
Ray Otton says
Ray Otton would like to point out that other than a well deserved “FU” all of the vitriol emanates from one contributor.
Paul Plante says
(Confusion, people, is one of the leading causes of anger and aggression in Alzheimer’s and dementia sufferers. Confusion can be triggered by lost trains of thought, mixed up memories, or a sudden change in the environment. So if someone we all love very dearly, and how could we not, becomes aggressive, which seems to be happening more and more as we can see right here above us with this outburst of foul language, as the professionals say, it’s very important for all of us to remember that they aren’t doing it on purpose.)
Ray Otton says
People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.
You can throw plantes though.
Just a thought as y’all absorb another day of delightfully vitriolic spewings.
Paul Plante says
Try ignorant spewings, Raymond.
Your spewing are logically inconsistent!
There is no discernible relationship apparent between subject and predicate and what is packed in in between is a muddle.
As to vitriol, if that is what you intended, then regardless of how incomprehensible the message actually came out, and irrational as it might seem to a normal, rational, lucid person, it is vitriol!
Thanks for pointing that out to everybody.

Get yourself a copy of “Internet for Dummies” and look up “self-owned” because the concept has gone completely over your head.
Paul Plante says
Raymond, you are so ******* ignorant that it is IMPOSSIBLE to connect with you in any way.

That, Raymond is a TRUISM that applies to ANYBODY and EVERYBODY!
The INTENT to do harm is harm.
You intend your posts to be vitriolic and hate-filled, and because of your intent, then they are, which is exactly what “self-owned” is really all about.
As for me, I am not a hater, so there is nothing but pure unadulterated compassion and humane intent in my posts, as we see from the following:

Absolutely no vitriol in there at all, Raymond, precisely because I did not intend for there to be, but sadly, your mind is now so far gone that you likely won’t comprehend that, especially since you are so hate-filled that you think it is a normal condition in everybody, and Raymond, that is called “projecting.”
And it and you get tedious quite rapidly, as a result.
But nonetheless, I am still asking and encouraging people to pray for you, now more than ever.
