  • Who are the Passport Bros?

    Ready.

    There is a group of men who call themselves the “Passport Bros.” They are men who are disgruntled with the dating scene in the west. As such they are  traveling to foreign countries in pursuit of more traditional wives. They also travel for other reasons, such as the flexibility to work remotely as a digital nomad.

    Some also travel for some quality soul searching time, away from anyone who has ever heard of them. Although they travel for different reasons, it is an unfair generalization to suggest that the majority of them travel for better dating options.

    How did the movement get its name?

    Passport Bros are an offshoot from the “Save Your Selves Black Men” (SYSBM) movement. SYSBM was still a grassroots movement up until the 2020 Covid pandemic. It is geared towards a specific group of black men seeking to denounce a neglectful black community who never supported them. And also to explore their dating options interracially.

    But as other races of men have become disgruntled with the chaotic dating scene in the west, the term “Passport Bros” was coined as a blanket term to include those men. Additionally, some of the staunchest detractors of the Passport Bros are often low-brow women and their derelict thug boyfriends. You know, the thug boyfriends who sit on the couch all day, while she goes out and works a job to support him.

    Many years before, those same girls and their thug boyfriends used to give the passport bros a warm time, and refer to them as nerds and lames. It was all one big joke to them, and they did not care how their words affected others. While the “cool kids” were out partying on weekends and running afoul of the law, the “nerds” were home, studying and plotting their revenge.

    Many of their thug boyfriends have a history of criminality and child neglect. Their actions have led them on a path that has permanently disqualified them from any kind of passport eligibility. Meanwhile, the “nerds” remained on a narrow path. All that studying and revenge planning finally paid off. So when a certain class of international male suitors choose to refer to themselves as “Passport Bros,” they are basically saying; “we are now able to travel, and you just can’t.”

    What are the detractors hoping to accomplish by using some of those tactics?

    The detractors are full of pride and prejudice. The last thing they want is to be beaten at their own game by someone they consider socially inept. Not only that but, misery loves company. So because of their collective ego, they have decided to relentlessly attack the natural rights of the passport bros to seek health, happiness and freedom away from them.

    They have taken to social media to publicly denigrate us. With the intent of humiliating us for their own amusement. They have even gone so far as to OPENLY wish that passport bros were robbed and killed in the country of their destination. Do you have any idea how deep it would have to run for them to wish death upon someone they cannot control? Are they really that prideful and trifling?

    What other group do you know that are full of pride and prejudice?

    Schools, churches, jobs, nations, the police force, Klansmen. Families. Any so-called authority figure that has a prominent social standing within society. Any group that is divisive by nature (us vs. them). Even society as a whole can be counted among the proud ones.

    What is the one thing that all these proud groups have in common?

    Cowards run in gangs. In the grand scheme of things, there are game players and game changers. While game players throw stones and hide in groups, game changers stand alone.

    But the game changer is a fool. Doesn’t he know that standing alone will make him an easy target?

    He knows. But to him, it is worth it.

    You see, the game changer doesn’t want to be a hero. And the world didn’t ask to be saved. The world wants a hero, but they don’t want him to be their hero. The game changer is not the hero you want, but the hero you need. A true unsung hero.

    With that in mind, he must do whatever it takes to be a hero. His ONLY goal then, is to save himself. Hence the name of the movement, Save Yourselves Black Men. Because YOU need you. And when you are forsaken by the world, and even by god himself, only you can save yourself.

    But saving yourself is not just about traveling overseas and dating different women. Sure, that is a huge part of it. And my wish is for all of you to go over there and have an amazing time. However, saving yourself also requires self-care.

    Some examples of self-care include: having several passive income streams. Getting plenty of rest, relaxation, solitude and recreation. Changing your diet, and discovering what works best for you. Learning everything you can about how your mind and body works, and how to maximize efficiency. Learning better time management. Taking better care of your health (both physical and mental). Discovering your ultimate purpose in life.

    The trauma that some of you have had to endure for years is truly inhumane. No human being deserves to go through what you did, and you still haven’t fully healed from that. Please allow me to express my heartfelt empathy for what you must have been through. And also to recommend that you seek professional help to guide you on the right path.

    What are some of the other names that Passport Bros are known by?

    There are some Passport Bros who call themselves “Blue Book Gentlemen.” That is a cool name and all, but might I suggest “Passport Kings?” It never hurts to promote a little positive reinforcement of our inherent birthright. Both “Passport Kings” and “Blue Book Gentlemen” can be used interchangeably. But I feel as though “Passport Bros” is downplaying the sheer power of what we are doing, and what we are about to do.

    Finally, let me assert that “The Buckinchere Transcendence” is a Publication for Passport Kings. I may not always talk about women and dating. But I always talk about everything you need to know in order to save yourselves. On the path of transcendence, this publication can be a very useful guide towards securing the future you deserve.
