Gavin McInnes is the co-founderof VICE magazine and Proud Boys and is a really funny guy.
He is colloquially known as the ‘godfather of hipsters’.
Background
Establishment media likes to label him a ‘far-right provocateur’ and ‘Western chauvinist’, whatever that means. I’ve stated previously that the left-right dichotomy is largely irrelevant post-COVID.
Gavin calls himself ‘a champion of Western values’ and the New York Times says he ‘reserves a burning fire for the political correctness of people on the left whom he describes as busybodies who have lost their sense of humour.’
Sounds about right.
He enjoys trashing woke folk and other postmodern nonsense.
You probably know him more for what he’s done and said than for what he thinks.
VICE, Proud Boys and beyond
As I said, Gavin founded the men-only ‘brotherhood’ Proud Boys and co-founded VICE, the latter of which was once creative and edgy but has become a postmodern cesspit.
The Proud Boys describe themselves as ‘Western chauvinists’ and are known for participating in street rallies and protests and for being hated by the media because they take no nonsense from woke commies like Antifa and Black Lives Matter. They have been labelled as ‘far right’ and ‘extremist’ by various governments and watchdog groups due to their involvement in violent incidents. In fact, the Canadian and New Zealand governments have designated the Proud Boys as a ‘terrorist group’.
He’s also against masturbation.
He argues that porn and video games aid in men’s failure with women and I certainly agree. I recommend listening to my conversation with a former pornstar who helps girls get out of the industry. Basically, Gavin rejects the ‘culture of promiscuity’ and encourages reducing masturbation to maintain manhood.
After being censored everything, he created his own online video platform, Censored.TV, where he hosts the podcast Get Off My Lawn.
Conversation
Summary
VICE magazine has devolved from counterculture to a politically correct cesspit.
Gavin criticises the conflicts between traditional and progressive groups over values, beliefs and cultural practices, rightly dismissing progressivism as postmodern nonsense and asserting the existence of objective truths.
He argues that culture is more important than politics, as it is upstream from everything else.
I agree.
