I remember seeing a copypasta somewhere (Reddit, I think?) about how screwed a man is when he is before a judge in a case involving divorce or domestic violence (I forget which). It was long, and I think it even talked about how men were disadvantaged in the early 20th century (like 1900s to 1910s) because judges favored women in general. Anyone have any leads on that or something similar? Statistics would be a plus.
@ergo@BowsacNoodle@RedpillBot@SuperLutheran@SuperSnekFriend@lykanthrocide >in practice all law devolves into corruption Corruption only happens when demoralization happens at large scale. We are still in a demoralization because we are not only still affected by the psyops of the cold war but also by the ongoing psyops done by every country (and corpos) on each other.
The only way to get out of this mess imo is large scale NVC in education and in a decade things will start getting better.
This Dalrock guy's posts are a gold mine! I plan to look into this further.
That said, I have a question for you: you have expressed at least a dismissal of the "mutual submission" attitude many pastors have when it comes to marriage. Could you (as briefly as possible) give your analysis and correction of this attitude as it pertains to Ephesians 5:21-33? I see it as "submission of a wife to her husband looks like obedience and following his lead as the Church does to Christ, and submission of a husband to his wife looks like self-sacrificing love as Christ did for the Church"; could you correct and/or temper that?
@lykanthrocide@BowsacNoodle@RedpillBot@SuperLutheran The mistake those pastors usually make is take verse 5:21 as a single moral command for each and every believer, instead of treating as part of the pericope, marking the transition from discussing how believers relate to the world darkness and how to generall treat each other to discussing how certain groups should submit to others, wives to husbands (5:22-33), children to parents (6:1-4), and slaves (or workers in a modern sense) to masters (6:5-9).
Notice that these pastors would never tell parents to submit to their children nor would they dare upset hierarchy within businesses, state, and military, but that is the absurd logical conclusion for treating 5:21 as a universal command for each and every believer without any context.

Thank you for affirming this. I was thinking about this whole matter before reading your reply, and I came to the same conclusion.
