In The Last Jedi -- photoshoot by Annie Leibowitz.
Even though I've been aware of this since "Episode 7" was revealed, the photoshoot made it clear once again how much of a failure Luke has been written to be in this new series, to be surpassed and succeeded not by a son or a male Jedi, but by a Disney Jedi princess. (Even Mark Hamill doesn't like what's been done with the character of Luke?)
And yet males will flock to see this, and "fathers" will bring their children to the theaters.

Notice a Pattern?
Modern Uhmerican High Schools
In some ways hell may be like a perpetual high school with all the arrested development it entails.
Setting aside a similar "social" patterns for Western megacities, does the modern institution of co-ed secondary education have a convergence peculiar to it in Western nations?

Agree with the Basic Precept
It’s Essential For Men To Create A Tightly-Knit Crew Of Red Pill Men
A minor quibble on this point:
A false dichotomy, if the society is a true community, led by men -- in which case when they serve society they are serving themselves.
However, if society refers to a mass aggregate of consumers, immersed in pop culture and exploited by the elites for their own gain, then the division is valid.
I know some good men at one parish but they're not in my age group. At another parish, there are men closer to my age but we share no common political ideals and none of them have really taken the red pill. Where to find some like-minded peers? Can such a tribe be formed here?
A minor quibble on this point:
If they follow the typical, normative 9-5 lifestyle and waste a lot of time on social media or other time-consuming frills, assume that they are not suitable for your crew. In addition, you should take in consideration what their ambitions are. Do they want to serve society or themselves? If they serve society they are more or less blinded by it, thus decreasing their potential and worth. Remember, a man’s worth should be partly evaluated by his ambitions for the future, not where he stands in present time. So, think about whether he has such a drive for accomplishments, and make sure his soul is not a spark, but rather fully afire.

The New UK
Dissing the old UK.
It still bewilders me that the Queen agreed to do this; the aftereffect of Diana's death? Needing to stay close to the people (by embracing pop culture) and keeping the monarchy relevant?

Rigidity in Worship
When we think of formal worship, do we imagine court ceremonial, restrained in the name of being "dignified," like the British royals and their rites for example? Just standing/sitting and singing? (Or how some think angels worship?) Does this image hold some back from embracing a worship style that is more expressive corporeally, with greater use of gestures and postures? (Not shaking and dancing, as some are wont to do in accordance with the "liturgical" music used in some Uhmerican OF Masses.)
