sexpig by night posted:Like, even if you want to be all stupid about this and reduce it down to "SHE WAS THE MOST QUALIFIED PERSON EVER AND IT WAS STOLEN FROM HER FOR SEEMINGLY NO REASON EXCEPT CONSPIRACIES AND PLOTS RATHER THAN PERSONAL FAILING" the response should be "why the gently caress did she choose to show that in the most cold, impersonal, way possible then?" America has a problem with women being emotional. A male politician can cry like a bitch all the time and still be taken seriously, but if a woman cries, that's a clear sign that she's not tough enough to play with the big boys. And if she raises her voice, she becomes a shrieking harridan instead of an inspirational leader.

theflyingexecutive posted:liberal hyper-pc culture is annoying because it genuinely takes a lot of time to understand and develop ideas about political ideology and the specific implementation of differing philosophies of socialism into public policies and strategies, but any loving moron on twitter with a brain cell and a half can be the bad word police and fart out a trillion words about why they think people shouldn't say retard. you'd think the ease with which you can argue that "word bad" would mean those arguments have some validity

I've been told by someone i'm pretty sure is neurotypical that i don't have the privilege to use the word "sperg" because if i'm okay with it it's ACTUALLY because i've internalized neuronormativity or whatever it's basically all fart noises look i laugh when felix makes the jokes about barron being soothed by small mechanisms, or the train/elevator jokes

I consider the autism jokes to be more self deprecating than anything. Anyone who posts as much as they have is on the spectrum for sure.

The bulk of autism jokes come from Virgil and Felix and they may actually be legitimately on the spectrum. Heck even Nick Mullen might actually be autistic given how much he understands the symptoms.

I don't think any of these guys have an organic issue. This is just the result that posting has on the brain. Think how different it is than an actual conversation. You make a post aimed at no body in particular, maybe a forum of pseudonyms you've never met before. There are no real consequences for breaking norms, not the same feedback of reply and emotion you'd see in the body and face of someone you talk to in person. We talk about how broke brain the old dudes on freep are, but gently caress man, were headed down that same path.

drat it, now I'm trying to find the episode where Matt skewers the liberal cult of meritocracy in a discussion about health care. This is what happens when you listen to a non-text medium and you just let your playlist roll.

They actually have a great system for selecting their audience, because a person who pretends to care about hearing the word autist certainly isn't going to agree with their leftist views when it come to actually reforming society

Because they care or "care" about upsetting people, so they're not going to advocate for, say, defanging the AMA, because it would upset the doctors and they're not going to criticize Hillary's campaign, because it would upset all of her hard working volunteers

Nah I do know quite a bunch who do consider that to be messed up and do agree on everything else. There's this odd trend for a while where for some reason chapo fans screamed at acquaintances of the chapo crew for stuff like this, even if Felix et al agreed on it. Then again, i do recall murderbryan being somewhat saddened when a few fans kept calling street fight radio "Chapo for stupid people".

Maybe the real lesson here is that we should all cut each other a little bit of slack, because if we insist upon perfection, we're going to be disappointed.

one of the long-running weird/left twitter pet peeves has been that you can get banned for calling someone retarded or whatever, but at the same time largely twitter will do nothing if you put white power symbolism in your avi/banner, talk about how blacks/jews are inferior and should be enslaved or killed, women are the inferior gender, doxx atheists in Saudi, etc. It's kind of the same thing behind being "dirtbag" or, for example, the duck hunts in early episodes. The "discourse" is worthless when the namecalling is penalized but not the bigotry/hate speech; what really ruins people's lives and damages society goes unpunished I don't think they should say "retarded" on the show, ultimately, but I think I understand why there's been a long learning curve
