"AMAZON" RAPED AND KILLED IN THE AMAZON

This isn't going to end well.

All this female empowerment is just getting deadly.

First, it is pushing down the birthrates to the point where women forget why they are here -- to pump out >2.1 kids and thus ensure the survival of the race (careers in rocket science can come later), and, secondly, it is directly killing them, as in the case of "adventurer" Emma Kelty, 43, who, it seems, fancied herself as something of an "Amazon warrior," the equal to any man.  

How ironic that she ended up cut-up, raped, half-decapitated, and dead in the very river named after the mythic tribe of female warriors often used to symbolize female equality with males. Kelty died a humiliating, lonely death as she tried to canoe down the river to show that women are just as tough as men. 

TLDR: they are not.

Kelty

Of course, not many men would have survived what happened to Kelty -- getting attacked by a gang of local, drugged-up river pirates, keen to get the money or gear for their next fix. But then most men wouldn't feel the need to pointlessly prove themselves in this absurd and suicidal way, especially when there are easier ways to do this, like drinking 16 pints with their mates on a Saturday night and then stealing a policeman's helmet.

This pointless death had all the hallmarks of the cult of female empowerment, which especially includes a large dose of pretending that the world outside the bubble of the Middle-Class White World isn't the giant dog-eat-dog rape camp that it actually is.

After graduating from military college and going into education, where she became a headmistress, Kelty jacked it all in a few years ago to go "adventuring" around the world, starting off with a five-month hike across the USA. She was already into kickboxing and mountain marathons, so a 2,500-mile walking trip from the bottom to the top of the USA, through "White people areas," wasn't too much of a challenge. But she felt empowered, she felt liberated...

"I don’t have boundaries … sorting out other people’s problems, deadlines or working 15-hour days seven days a week for others’ benefit — a thankless task — that I’ve done for over 20 years," she exulted as she set off across the States. "Tomorrow, I will be selfish …Completely and wholly selfish … And that feels great, exciting and different."

Also, no cats to feed!

This was followed by an unsuccessful attempt to ski to the South Pole and back, and then a few weeks after that, she decided to try the opposite extreme, canoeing down the Amazon from Peru to the sea. It's not like she didn't know it was dangerous. But did she care? Fuck, no. 

"A place that’s hot, humid, teaming with dangerous wildlife and people with machetes/guns and moving water. Guess that’s the jungle … and just to take it to a different level (beyond my experience), I will be kayaking down the Amazon from source to sea, all 4,000+ miles of it."

Yeh, just being aware of basic mortal threats. That would be giving in to the Patriarchy and get in the way of her adventure signalling. No way she was going to worry about that. 

Sisters are doing it for themselves. "It" = getting gangbanged and slaughtered in the Amazon.

She decided to use a male guide for the first 1,000 miles and then tackle the remaining 3,000 by herself. Big mistake, as reported by the Daily Mail:

"As Emma slept in her tent, she was attacked by a gang of seven drug users and dealers who call themselves the ‘water rats’ and who, according to Deputy Chief of Police, Ivo Martins, ‘operate like pirates and go out looking for the chance to steal’.

Villagers claim Emma was shot, tortured and raped after her tent was mistaken for that of a rival dealer. One said: ‘When the men saw her tent, they thought it belonged to a Colombian with drugs, so they started firing from about 50 metres away. The woman was hit in the arm. She started waving frantically and screaming for help.’ He said that when the men, one aged just 17, saw she was a woman, they attacked. Still convinced she was carrying drugs, they cut off her hair with a knife and demanded to know where they were.

According to the villager, one of the group then slit her throat, before she was assaulted. The men then tried to decapitate her with a machete, police say. One attacker has said she was still alive when they dumped her in the fast-moving river."

It was only because one of the pirates accidentally pressed an SOS button on her GPS device that the Brazilian police were able to even find out what happened. Otherwise she would have just disappeared without a trace, like so many others.

Well, that more or less puts an end to the legend that the Amazon was once home to a tribe of female warriors living in harmony with nature, I guess. 

Five of the suspects (Yes, there were more).
