Huh, what a lovely person. So this is the type of person that was high up in OWS? No wonder it collapsed.

That's the problem with any leaderless movement: It allows anyone wanting to step up and tell people what to do to become a "leader" purely on the merit that they proclaim they are. I said earlier in the thread this was a big reason I stayed the hell away from OWS; and why it could never even get it's goals straight. I feel bad who ended up doing jail time over a pointless endeavor while the people that told them to do things to get arrested are given jobs with Google.

Any one of them would be less crazy.

all that ye old timey bullshit annoys me, especially as it was still pronounced as a th sound. The different representations of a Y and the TH sound arrived with the printing press, but before then the words where still pronounced with a th, only the written representation was a y. (well it was the old digraph thorn, which looked a lot like y)

So it's completely ahistorical and just comes off as being a thick idiot pretending to be smart.

she didn't "run" OWS on any level, she just started the twitter and was able to reclaim it because it was tied to one of her e-mail accounts. any claims she makes otherwise are simply born of narcissism. also she literally joined OWS because her WoW guild fell apart.

but count on goons to elicit sympathy for a neo-reactionary, feudalism-worshipping, pro-slavery tech nazi by focusing endlessly on the one thing that has absolutely no bearing on her being a horrible shithead.

im not so sure we should entirely remove that from the discussion though. im wondering if maybe her callousness towards other human beings could be informed by the fact that for her, someone making fun of her for being transgendered is probably the end all be all of any oppression she has ever faced. and because of this shes convinced she knows what ~real oppression~ is now. even though she doesnt, but her thinking that makes hef even more of an isufferable person

You know part of why I miss the old GBS is this thread. Yeah, there was a lot of annoying news discussions and yes, things got way way way too PC there.

But in the new rules this utter comedy goldmine that could have spawned all kinds of hilarious content has been hijacked from page 1 into a string of "Tranny tranny tranny" posts and it's loving stupid. I know Lowtax commented recently in the rules about the racism thing, but ultimately a lot of potential for wit has been turned into the ramblings of a kid on Xbox Live.

Seriously. There hasn't been this level of what-the-fuckery quotes in a long time. I can think of very people who have even come close. In fact previously these kinds of threads might have even gotten attention outside of SA, but if anyone came here to read this thread (say from the front page article) they're going to get a damned bad impression.

Anyway, just saying. Some forum rules are good. It forces people to be creative or at least put in some effort in their posts at the least.

I would hate for someone from Google to be looking into why everyone hates their new employee, come here, and basically assume it's a hate group instead of looking at all the poo poo she vomits on the internet.

Do you really want to make her look good? Or like the victim? I sure as gently caress don't, because she's a smug rear end in a top hat crazy person with terrible ideas.

do you want to be a stay at home mom and propel the gift economy forward?

Absolutely. Mine ideal life would be as a stay-at-home mom who homeschools her children in set theory, writes lots of open source code, and trolls people on Twitter. No bosses. No deadlines. No operations work. No career stress. No promotion committees or performance reviews. Just kids, code, and a loving husband. Preferably in a nice peaceful place with lots of nature, like Maine, where people will leave us alone.

nah that whole techies versus progressive thing is something that's really happening right now. basically being a leftist today is about as milquetoast and mainstream as you can be. two terms african-american democrat in the white house, next president gonna be a woman (clinton or warren) if the gop ever wins the presidency again it's gonna be someone like rubio or cruz, marketing firms have now replaced the 90s multicultural family with the post-nuclear lgbt reconstructed family in their ads, trans actors and actresses are getting in the spotlight and you're starting to have new legistlation regarding them everywhere

basically the whole culture war has been won by liberals, so now you're starting to get a counter-culture movement where people who want to say 'gently caress the man' are going to look to either become purer and purer ('Democrats? :jerkbag: Only Marxist-Leninism can save America! :ussr: ) or the opposite, a new influx of young intellectuals attracted to the conservative movement and trying to find an alternative to the GOP

that's why people rage so much against the SJWs etc.., they are basically the new tipper gore, church ladies and librarians talking about all the problematic and triggering things in the media and getting all huffy about it in their neo-puritan way


obviously that specific person is insane so it colors their understanding of what's happening and framing everything in a 'techie' kind of way in a weird internet echo chamber of like-minded individuals, but yeah the pendulum has started to swung the other way so get used to seeing more and more people like that
