Roosh V: "it is more than enough for Trump to simply not touch the gender issue to allow the culture to return to a more patriarchal order"[edit]

Someone call Jordan Peele[edit]
Here's a great idea for a socially-conscious horror-comedy in the vein of Get Out: While working on his latest book Hump Germany, a bigoted pick-up artist who is totally not Roosh V attempts to take advantage of the wrong woman. Her father, a mad doctor played by Dieter Laser, proceeds to kidnap not-Roosh and use him as a test subject for the first male pregnancy. When not-Roosh attempts to get an abortion, he is blocked from entering the clinic by a crowd of protesting female pastors. — Unsigned, by: BoggleYourMind / talk / contribs
- I smell another Oscar nomination! And not just for Peele. Chair tater (talk) 17:32, 14 March 2018 (UTC)
Remove the Godwin's law misuse in his "influences" section[edit]
There are plenty of legitimate reasons to criticize Roosh V, but attacking him for quoting Mao's On Guerrilla Warfare is absolutely ridiculous and smacks of association fallacy. He is analyzing Mao as a warfare strategist (which is also studied and recognized by military academics across the world) while applying it to PUAs, similarly to his other pseudointellctual articles on Sun Tzu and other notable strategists [1]. Nothing says that Mao's ideals influenced Roosh, considering that the two men have completely different aims, socio-political backgrounds, and are on opposite side of politics. Furthermore, at the very end of the article he even admitted that Mao's economic policies brought countless suffering [2]. Recognizing Mao's successes as a military strategist while criticizing his economic policies are not mutually exclusive.--Alpharius (talk) 17:20, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for talkpaging. For my two cent's worth, give me a day to read up and I'll get back to you on it. Reverend Black Percy (talk) 21:50, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
KingsWiki[edit]
I did some digging into this before the place got shuttered and it turns out the co-founder of KingsWiki was someone familiar to users of this site. There is also an update on apparently how the whole thing blew up disastrously. Lastly, the new account that added the update to this page is a tad suspicious. Hard to imagine many people who would make an impassioned argument for why the KingsWiki fork (now called Male Monarchs Wiki) would be insulated from legal claims by Roosh V.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 07:54, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
Black hole denialism[edit]
Should perhaps put this somewhere? Possibly as the "intro quote"? (also see the follow-up, which shows that perhaps it's all just for attention?) Martin (talk) 23:25, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- This guy is crazy: https://twitter.com/rooshv/status/1119246441690611712
- Also this manages to mix just about every kind of toxic behaviour. I thought it was bad, but then he started to talk about "sexy Somalian migrants" and it got even worse :-/
- How can these people exist? How can people like this have a following?! Martin (talk) 14:04, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
Religious conversion[edit]
Do you think we should set up a section on Roosh's unexpected turn to fundamentalist Christianity? I'm sure we could make quite a point on how it's alienated his former followers, to say nothing of the irony of the first among PUAs turning to railing against "fornication". --Logos (talk) 00:11, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
