A real life example of amygdala-training in action:
Marvel’s vice president of sales has blamed declining comic-book sales on the studio’s efforts to increase diversity and female characters, saying that readers “were turning their noses up” at diversity and “didn’t want female characters out there”.
Over recent years, Marvel has made efforts to include more diverse and more female characters, introducing new iterations of fan favourites including a female Thor; Riri Williams, a black teenager who took over the Iron Man storyline as Ironheart; Miles Morales, a biracial Spider-Man and Kamala Khan, a Muslim teenage girl who is the current Ms Marvel.
I guess having Captain America don a beret and a Fidel Castrol outfit and begin railing at the evil of the United States from his throne in the UN High-Council room wasn’t bringing in all the comics fans who wanted to see heroes battling evil.
This is happening because of the minor resource constrictions we are seeking as K-selection approaches. Rabbits have rabbit instincts. But they can, and do, control them when K-approaches. If resources were really scarce right now, and the only way to survive was to run ultra-patriotic, super-patriarchic, white-power comic strips, the rabbits at Marvel would make the Alt-right look positively SJW-esque.
It is one of the irritations of the Apocalypse. There will be a lot of rabbits and cucks who will have a ton of comeuppance coming, but they probably will never get it because they will disappear into the ranks of K-strategists when the time comes. When the drum beats of war begin, it will be the rabbits taking up the drums, and beating them loudest of all. I suppose being wholly lacking in principle, honor, and loyalty is a survival strategy after all.
It is one reason why it is imperative to identify as many as possible now.
Tell everyone about r/K Theory, because we need to start drawing up the list now
They’re not beating the drums yet. They’re still bitching about President Trump. They’re bitching about “Nazis” and “closing the borders” and of course “all the dudes with guns”. The open resource signalling will probably continue until the final days and hours right before financial collapse- from missed US Dollar bond sales that cascade. Junker and Xi will probably try late this summer. Just think, if Hillary were President we would all be fighting right now. Also, these assholes are still trying to orchestrate a coup- look at Sen. Gillibrand trying to purge the US Marine commanders that protect Trump.

What will produce the shift is a real tangible fear that can only be turned off by joining the right. When it hits, those drums will be beaten.

AC,
I greatly appreciate your insights…I was curious if you had any thoughts on the burgeoning MGTOW (men going their own way) movement and how this worldview might be explained by r/K theory.
Thanks
It is tough to say without a detailed study. Some may be K’s who have realized they can never satisfy their urges among r-selected women. Others may be r’s who are finally freed to pursue the r-strategy they have always wanted to follow. My guess is it would be a mix, but I have no data to speak authoritatively of.
Presumably the rabbits will again turn into “Chickenhawks” – all eager for war, so long as they and theirs are not the ones doing it. “Let’s you and him fight” indeed!
Mi’K’e Cernovich calling out Sam Har’r’is…
Great example of a K selected high achiever embracing competition whilst…calling out a competition averse rabbit… who would no doubt act K when the apocalypse hits!
