Russell Means talks about women/matriarchy

[yaboybert1]

this is inspiring

[wearepsychotic]

when he says DUH!! it cracks me up every time

[MrBlueladybug]

This guy is pretty awesome and smart!

[sherm1dr]

Russell Means is such an amazing person. Very intelligent and funny too.

[SerenyLaVesser]

It would be very interesting to be in a society where everything is tipped on its head...a female dominated society...then how bout trying a balanced society....no domination....just equal weight on both sides of the scale. When as a whole will we make it to that point?. I think it is the goal of nature to be balanced in everything.

[InvisibleMan542]

@SerenyLaVesser Well u can start by stepping off your pedistal and actually meaning what you say, either go back to working at the house or be willing to court your man half way. Equality doesn't mean you get the best of both worlds just because your a female. It's hardly a male dominated society, sure the upper elites are mostly males but they attack masculinity for their agenda. Middle class society is heavily bent to favor women over men. (continued)

[InvisibleMan542]

@SerenyLaVesser equality means women letting go of some power. Because middle class women have a ton more advantages than middle class men. Hell, if your willing to look at it objectively then the evidence is right there, anyone can see it, you know it too (even if you play dumb). Ultimately, ppl need to STOP FOLLOWING GURUS (like russel means) and start becoming their own leaders.

[swags006]

@InvisibleMan542 that's what russel means is trying to say.... silly

[InvisibleMan542]

The fact that my most truthful, hard hitting comment was voted down here, because people who claim to b about truth, actually hate hearing the truth (the one about all the COINTELPRO agents promoting matriarchy and theosophy). I've said my piece, I have no more interest in carrying this on, so please, stop responding to me. I don't wanna come back here, I have nothing more to say here. I'm done here, I have nothing more to say.

[immayhem]

@InvisibleMan542 but you're stuck. you're talking about patriarchy if anyone is 'above' anyone, or is forced to abide in regulated gender roles, or strata. matriarchy is not authoritarian. if there is a State, if there is an organization with the monopoly on force as its foundation, it is a patriarchal structure, not matriarchal. left-brain and right brain.

[immayhem]

@InvisibleMan542 another way to tell - is the society in question respectful of the inner life, the spiritual growth, concerned with healing, cycles of nature, or the nurture of the individual? or is it concerned with outward progress, accomplishment, and goal-orientation? women have become the new patriarchs... that's why things suck. but it's still fraking patriarchy.

[InvisibleMan542]

@immayhem Ok this is just a bunch of New Agey magic talk, try speaking in actual real, intelligible sentences. But as a matter of fact, yes, mispercieved "healing and cycles of nature" ARE being promoted as the new religion for the New Age. Like feminism, carrying the mask of being progressive and open minded, while in actuality it's anything but that. Truth be told, you just like being on a pedistal.

[immayhem]

@InvisibleMan542 cycles of nature: i have grown my own food and raised most of the animals that i eat for most of my life. it has nothing to do with new age religion - its old, not new. when one lives close to the earth, one pays attention to cycles. i also practice natural methods of healing with wild herbs. on a pedestal? hardly. my hands are in the dirt, and my heart is whole. don't make ridiculous assumptions about people you don't know.

[swags006]

@immayhem Amenn



[InvisibleMan542]

Look at false rape cases, look at custody cases, divorce cases, how many women are having babies under multiple different dads and collecting child support and alimony so they can sit on their asses while men bust their ass and slave away, if u can't see how this matriarchy is already sexist as hell against men then maybe it's time to stop smoking crack. It's not that I hate women, it's that women (not all, but large portion of them in the west) and manginas hate men. manginas h8 themselves.

[SatannicaHelvete]

I agree .. women are taking the piss . Being a Woman myself a celtic married to a native Im submissive to my husband :) to be honest ladies if you are to act like a man expect to be treated as such , maybe when your husband comes home from work try telling him he is beautiful and remind him how much YOU love him .. your hypocrites and only want it one sided!

[roaringfirefilms]

@SatannicaHelvete It's interesting how from the comments people think this is about men and women as such as opposed to more complex modes of society. Matriarchal systems are more about balance and what you talk about in your own life is one of balance between the sexes. It's not about women running things or men running things. That's completely missing the point.

[SatannicaHelvete]

@roaringfirefilms Im sorry i was under the impression i was allowed my own opinion without elitist people telling me how i should try to understand something >.<

[roaringfirefilms]

@SatannicaHelvete You're welcome

[swags006]

@SatannicaHelvete That is not elitest.... sorry. and you started attacking people with your comments...

[SatannicaHelvete]

@swags006 no .. im saying MY opinion , if its not YOURS doesnt mean im attacking you thats very ignorant

[azumanation]

@roaringfirefilms Brother I wish you can explain this simple truth to the black men & women of the "GODDESS" movement that refuse to see that the universe was created on the principle of BALANCE.

[wearepsychotic]

@SatannicaHelvete im pretty sure this has got to do with nothing russell is talking about. he is not in anyway talking of what the sexes 'roles' are, but talking about what we have inside of us, naturally, not what women MUST do.

he's saying it is a natural thing

[roaringfirefilms]

You just don't understand it. It's not about someones sex. Margaret Thatcher was the ultimate patriarchal leader for example and they are not opposing systems. And about a 1/4 of reported sexual abuses against kids are committed by women and its imagined that when committed by women less are reported so truth might be higher. But that has nothing to do with matriarchy. This is a far more complex construct. There is clearly an issue that winds you up based on your life but not down to Matriarchy

[InvisibleMan542]

And about this myth that somehow women are a morally superior gender who would never abuse their power like the men would, that's just batt shit absurd. patriarchal power relies on force and intimidation, matriarchal power relies on coersion and manipulation. Both genders are human, both genders can be motivated by greed.

[rockgirl2wildfire]

@InvisibleMan542 EXACTLY RIGHT! No gender is superior than the other! You can forget about this major gobbledy-goop about girls being more 'spiritual' than boys. What does that even mean anyway? If you think it means that girls will always be kinder and more considerate than boys, you've got another thing coming. A lot of girls can play up this 'good girl' image, but it only works for so long before any trait of darkness breaks out: hostility and jealousy towards other girls being one of them.

[InvisibleMan542]

And just to prove I'm not sexist I'll even give you a good idea of a place where misogyny is still a heavy practice, I'll tell u where a patriarchy really is... The Middle East. Though, they are in the process of being americanized and turned into a matriarchy for the global agenda, meaning going from putting men over women to putting women over men. But that's another story. Up to this point the M.E. has been heavily sexist against women.

[InvisibleMan542]

See this whole protector/provider thing makes men the disposable gender. Men are made to fight fake ass wars (in the illusion of protecting their loved ones), men are working the dangerous jobs... Manginas allow women to determine manhood by which males are jumping through the most hoops for the matriarchy so they can compete for the "priveledge" of getting laid. I do not think we need a patriarchy or a matriarchy, I'm an anarchist myself.

[InvisibleMan542]

Look, I have lived TFL, I'm the wrong person to convince that matriarchy is the answer. All my life I was thrown out of society by manginas and little princesses. Hell I was hardly even an afterthought. Getting me to believe in matriarchy is like getting a black man to vote for the KKK.

[InvisibleMan542]

Further, what if I were to tell you there are just as many women beating their men, as there are men beating their women? Yet, no shelters for battered men. Women are NOT oppressed in western society by being female, in fact, it is quite the opposite. It is men being disenfranchised. Women are actually quite priveledged.

[roaringfirefilms]

@InvisibleMan542 Patriarchy and matriarchy are complex modes of society. Nothing to do with what you are talking about. More men are raped than women in the US every day thanks to the penal system. The penal system is structured as part of a patriarchal system. Women can be patriarchal and men can be matriarchal so far as the systems they live by.

[InvisibleMan542]

@roaringfirefilms More bullshit.... Like only men rape, right? What if I told you when I was 5 I was molested by my aunt (jaw dropper there?). There is a dual patriarchal and matriarchal element to human social structures, whichever side is being promoted determines if you are in a patriarchy or a matriarchy. Right now, the US and most westernized countries are technically matriarchal, women have more rights than do men. Granted men run it, but they also have interest in attacking masculinity.

[InvisibleMan542]

@roaringfirefilms Hell u see it in advertisements, sitcoms, etc, men are ALWAYS painted out to be dumber than a bag of hammers, whereas with few exceptions, women are painted out to be perfect little goddesses, morally and intellectually superior to men in every way. I mean the blatant misandry couldn't be more obvious if they tried. Also, I don't put my faith in gurus who are controlled by the system. Closet freemasons. Or members of some secret society somewhere. Truth mvmt = institution.

[immayhem]

@roaringfirefilms I agree... and I've thought about it a lot. Language has taken a beating as language does. I think instead of the Matriarchy vs. Patriarchy, I like Parasympathetic society or Sympathetic society respectively - or right-brain culture and left-brain culture. We live in a left-brain, sympathetic dominant society... and in general the imbalance isn't good for the health and well-being of humans of either gender.

[immayhem]

@immayhem .... as in sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.

[InvisibleMan542]

@roaringfirefilms Ok then hotshot, while the courts are bias towards women, the schools (indoctrination centers) are bias towards women, laws are all bias towards women, millions of men are forced out of society and out of life BY women, and their superficial high standards, then I have all these gurus promoting matriarchy.... It appears to me, matriarchy is TOTALLY status-oriented. Lets stop playing word games, you weren't oppressed by the matriarchy.

[InvisibleMan542]

@roaringfirefilms Hell I'll guaran-damn-tee you if me and lets say a more "attractive" guy are both caught doing a crime, I'll do a heavier sentence than he will simply for the fact that I am less "acceptible" to our current matriarchy. Do you understand me and millions of other men are deliberately, purposely forced to live platonic lives, to cut off our urges for life. All because I'm not rich, or I don't have muscles like a body builder or drive a mercedes benz, or 6ft tall.

[64TAKEOFF]

@InvisibleMan542 boy do YOU have issues with women, you need some therapy, and that doesn't mean leaving rude comments on a subject you are completely oblivious to....Obviously you are a white man, or someone else who seems so clueless to the real meaning.of what Mr. Means is talking about.. there's no hope for you understanding what he is talking about...It seems that its a 50/50 split...half people here GET IT, and the other half DOESN'T!

[InvisibleMan542]

@64TAKEOFF Why would I have an issue with women? Well, westernized women particularly, and their mangina servants who'll kiss their ass and do anything to get laid, they've pushed me out of society, ragged all over me, denied me a life in society, abused me physically, emotionally, and psychologically all my life. No, I don't hate women, I hate what the matriarchy is doing to innocent men. And the fact that your going along with it, proves u r not a man. A man isn't a doormat for matriarchy.

[InvisibleMan542]

Look I'm done here because I have said my piece. I'm a real man, I don't take abuse for the "priveledge" of getting my dingy in a stinky little hole. I don't throw my fellow man under the bus, or make excuses for or defend misandry, in order to get laid. So the fuck what color I am, it doesn't mean anything. Shit like this just confirms how politically correct this "truth movement" really is. All these gurus are COINTELPRO, all of them, I don't even need to go into gender to clarify this

[InvisibleMan542]

Then we have TV and advertisements constantly reinforcing the belief that men are dumb apes or psychos, and women (with few exceptions) are painted out to be perfect little angels. A school system that teaches boys don't hit girls instead of people don't hit people, no shelters for battered men.... But, I know what you'll say, "boys r stronger than girls, right? lemme cut you off there first and ask, what would u do if a woman hit you with a car, or a bat, or shot you in the legs?

[matriline]

Thank you for doing this interview. It gives me hope.

[Namdor2012]

Duality of the mind, only thing that separates us is genitals and a way of thinking..

Some men have deep feeling and make better mothers than many females.

Some women use far better common sense and reason than alot of Men.

The individual has the power to become there greater self.

Intuition and an ability to nurture is something I embraced at a young age due to isolation, so the seed is in all of us that with cultivation comes forth and strengthens the inner core and heart.

[gentrelane]

Very well said. Extremely cool guy.

[galleryhall]

To Warren5422000 - Ignorance is just a excuse for being stupid, and lazy. 

Much like your comments about Matriarchy. You are the idoit. It's the reason

why we have so many wars because of our current system dominated by your

type.....

[SatanBabyDollx]

Men are hunters , women are carers :) i am more than happy to accept my position ..>.> we are just animals why we think we are more is just pure ignorance 

[PerfectlyBlack]

Bro, I think he's talking about creating from within and the ability to sustain life from within. The difference between natural and synthetic. Not that it can't be done, but that it cannot be done without the manipulation of a force outside one's self.

[Vicsworld617]

Wow, someone should send him to China and explain to those fools a little bit about how women should be respected. Trust me, the traditional patriarchal views are hell for a woman.

[AnalieSkywind]

I am Pagan and I'm proud. I am Pagan, gonna shout it loud. I am Pagan. I want the world o know, that I follow the Goddess because she rocks my soul.

[warren5422000]

Or like when idealistic commies try to give some idealist interpretation to what communism is "supposed to be," even though we're being drug through a script and nothing is happening here by accident, and the same families who gave you "democracy" also gave you "communism." The word "government" came from ancient Greece, it means "mind control." Communism wasn't meant to be anything other than a violent dictatorship. But they wanna redefine it for their own idealistic agenda.

[warren5422000]

Look up David Icke, Jordan Maxwell, Glen Kealey, Arizona Wilder AKA Jennifer Anne Kealey, Malachi Z. York, many many others, they all push this matriarchy shit. And most men today are too pussy-whipped to stand up for themselves against women. We are made to think that if a man stands up to a woman, he is sexist. I got news, sexism goes both ways.

[roaringfirefilms]

@warren5422000 Ignorance is bliss I guess as you clearly have no idea what matriarchy is. You make it sound like it means women run things. And Russell Means, is as far from someone pussy-whipped as you can find. Nothing to do with sexism either. Shows how far out of balance your mind is.

[warren5422000]

@roaringfirefilms Dictionary definition of matriarchy: 1) a family, society, community, or state governed by women. 2) a form of social organization in which the mother is head of the family, and in which descent is reckoned in the female line, the children belonging to the mother's clan; matriarchal system

[AshaAuset]

@warren5422000 Yes and when women govern, they govern using BALANCE, that's the point. And societies that reckoned lineage through the mother is because only mothers give birth and have you heard the term "mama's baby, papa's maybe", when a woman gives birth, you KNOW that the child is hers, there is no dispute in it. Do some research on DNA and you will also find who gives more DNA content to the child...the mother. It's funny that you are so disturbed by this video....

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset Well so far the matriarchy doesn't seem very balanced to me. A man is expected to keep his problems bottled up inside until he explodes, but millions of manginas are ready to drop everything and cry a river for any woman who so much as breaks a nail. Look at the courts, the obvious bias against men. In divorce cases where the man gets stuck paying out alimoney and child support, men doing longer sentences than women who've committed the same crime, that's just getting started.

[AshaAuset]

@InvisibleMan542 The funny thing is that we are not in a matriarchy right now! America is patriarchal so if it is not working for men, maybe they should consider the matriarchy, it would be more fair overall for everyone. BTW, I don't need men sitting around crying for me, I need them out protecting and providing like a man should.

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset So lemme ask you this, you've basically admitted that all the pressure is on the man. A woman has a CHOICE, to be a house wive/mother, OR go out and work for a "man's job." A man has an OBLIGATION to be a protector and provider. Now if your gonna say "oh well that' what makes a man a man," well, then sitting at home cooking dinner and making babies makes a woman a woman then.

[AshaAuset]

@InvisibleMan542 That is a man's PRIMARY role, he can have other roles also but that is his primary. What you listed is are women's PRIMARY role. She is a nurturer by nature and is able to complete the multi-tasking necessary to run a home and raise children. I am proud to wear those titles. I cook dinner, I clean, I raise my babies as my primary roles and I write books and spread knowledge as my secondary roles. I have no problem at all with that. That is beautifully feminine.

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset well then if a woman's primary role is inside the house, then how do you expect women to be leaders? You say you want a matriarchy. Personally, I think the idea that a woman has to be in the kitchen and a guy has to be the disposable gender out risking his ass, I find it rather degrading to both men and women. Especially for men, because it's like saying if he isn't the "cream of the crop" then he's a nobody. And it may be easy for u to judge, (continued)

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset It may be easy for u to judge, because you don't have to compete. As a woman you have it all handed to you, you pick the man. Millions of men will be forced to be alone their whole lives, because of this one sided mating system. You can just pick a sugar daddy and get a free ride to the top, and be a backseat legislater even if you wanna. For a man, a man has to "compete" and be at the top of the ladder, or he's screwed out of life.

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset And don't even think of coming back with this "that's why we need a matriarchy, because women are so perfect and non-hierarchical," sure you may not have to compete as much as men, but you certainly love power as much as men. It isn't like women aren't already taking advantage of the fact that the courts are in their favor. That's just one example.

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset Hell, just look at how many men are doing time on false rape accusations (not saying real rapes don't occur, but women know the courts are on their side and manginas are on their side even when theyr wrong), there are millions of innocent men who've had their lives destroyed by women making false rape accusations against them, and then later admitting they lied after the man has done yrs behind bars for a crime he didn't commit. U can't tell me this doesn't happen.

[InvisibleMan542]

@AshaAuset And I'd hardly call it patriarchal if it consciously favors women over men (and it does). No I don't think we need a patriarchy, nor a matriarchy. Honestly, I think we need fucking equality, straight across the board. Men need to define what makes a man a man, instead of women deciding this. Just as women have the right to decide what makes a woman a woman. Only manginas allow women to also decide what makes a man a man.

[warren5422000]

Lets not try to redefine a word as an escapist method to justify being whipped here. That's like when a black man says blacks can't be racist, by redefining the word racist to suit their own agenda.

[SaramisKismet]

@warren5422000 Right. Black people did that. Not, you know, sociologists, who study oppression and frame the definitions. Black people can be prejudiced, but racism comes with privilege. Guys what black people don't have?

[SaramisKismet]

@warren5422000 Sounds like you're scared of women being equal or better than you. Which pretty much proves this guys point of patriarchy being fear-based. you don't like being nagged to do some chores, right? Call me when your gender is targeted for murder and rape and domestic violence disproportionately.

[MotherNatureisBiased]

@SaramisKismet He doesn't have to 'Call you when his gender is...'.  His gender is targeted for homicide, lower life span, child support fraud/child paternity fraud and underage molestation/assault/violence by adults.

[warren5422000]

Dude, he's disinfo, all these gurus come out claiming "matriarchy" as some sort of "solution." It's pure eugenics, they work FOR the system. They use a little bit of truth to sell lies and disinfo. Because TPTB KNOW people will rebel, so they give them bought-and-paid leaders to follow, into this "New Age," NWO.... But there's really nothing new about any of it. In a day and age where misandry has been running rampant, and these bozos wanna give women even more power?

[warren5422000]

Did you know back in England around I believe it was WW1 times, men who objected to going to war were made to wear pink feathers and women would mock them for "not being manly." This was their punishment for not going along with the war.

[warren5422000]

Dude is a male feminazi. Screw all this matriarchy shit, how about we have neither matriarchy or patriarchy? I'm sorry, but women aren't some superior gender who are incapable of abusing their power. Look at women today, they LOVE their power. Look at the courts taking away fathers' rights, look at how media makes men into knuckle-dragging apes and women into the picture of perfection.

[EliManningFan896]

I liked when he said, "Duh!" after he said that women live longer than men. I love Russell's teachings. I think in some ways, he's a philosopher because of his views on life and everything that he is concerned about.

[TheMerlinshawk]

did you talk like this with ANNIE MAE,before you let her die you bastard

[Kenshiroit]

@TheMerlinshawk who's Annie Mae?

[DeadMarine1980]

Men can create....modern aircraft, computers, the list can go on forever. But I can fallow some of your logic...I still think it is flawed...but it is better than the "judo-christian" view of the world.

[djlookwood]

"If you don't know who to nurture, you will be afraid!" - this is the TRUTH, and the basis of all Common Law. Cause no Harm, Cause no Loss.

"All is born of Womb-an, no Harm shall come to The Children"

This is the basis of a healthy and sustainable culture.

[prschuster]

I wouldn't call it matriarchy. I'd just call it balance between masculine & feminine. What Russell Means calls "matriarchy" sounds more like matrilineal or matrilocal society where women have real control over domestic issues & family life. It doesn't mean that one sex has to dominate the other in political life, so I think "matriarchy" is a misleading word.

[lmollot]

[lmollot]

woman in nature does not suffer from pregnancy or even labor and birth- the body functions properly and babies are small aand mother squats so opens pelvis 1/3 more than in hospital torture births -relax is key and who can relax with all bunch people around- warm water birth are painless no gravity - and pressure of baby is not pain- clean diet- slim ypung mother- nature never goes wrong- matriarchy is women ruling themselves and the child only they have birthed and nursed- this suits many men

[greywolfe420]

If I said it once, I've said it a thousand times. Russell's teaching on this is right on target. I get so many arguments about this. Right on! Great video!

[prawhg]

whereas it is my knowledge that wombmen and men have different bodies and hey i dont know about you man but im glad i have a mans body why well i dont have to carry the wombmans karma just think about what she goes through anyways good luck on your journey with knowledge always we can destroy all beliefs peace brother

[prawhg]

Your teaching seems to be 1 of unnecessary suffering with the whole we put the hooks ina flesh then rip them out tearing our flesh out just so that we can feel the pain of the wombman whereas one could never even come close we are talking i will get you 1 day if you want to prolong the pain of ripping the flesh with the hooks but she will give you 9 months so then my friend what is 9 months to 1 day of pain anyways in the end we are all souls on a journey due to our karma we take a certain body

[prawhg]

Earth is one of the Mothers but without the seed of a Man the Wombman cant give birth so then on Earth there are many seeds so who put them all there well that's easy The Seed Bearing Father Who is also the protector of the Wombman nowadays i see some Wombman wants to go off to war and kill so in this way i see how the Wombman has been corrupted in fact Wombman don't have it easy to say they go through more pain then men in general with the whole 9 months carrying the fetus lower back pain .exc

[sk9utube]

the suffix "-archy" means to rule. So true matriarchy is Nurse Ratchet in Kesey's 1 flew over the cuckoo's nest. 

[sk9utube]

I also find it interesting that someone so matriachal has the last word while you never see a video produced by his wife.

[TheDraeStar]

@sk9utube Perhaps she is just not into making videos.

[naapiakii]

@sk9utube lol does he have a wife?

[sk9utube]

0:54 @naapiakii I concede now that Russell Means has explained his background as an indigneous culture that granted far more respect to women than the cruel civilization has done. I overracted at the word "matriarchy." It sounds a llittle too much like a bunch of men-hating feminist rhetoric.

It took me awhile to get the context. Men have traditionally treated a lot of women like shit for many generations.

[marcdruten]

Awesome talk :)

[boz6969123]

now THIS is REAL TALK!! ,GREAT MAN!!

[Jupiterconjunct]

OK Wow!!! Im so excited... I be back to comment more!
