Intrinsic Field Marshal posted:I'm not justifying what Milo said just that Milo is a deeply-hosed up individual that needs to head to therapy so he doesn't try and justify what a child abuser did to him You're being sympathetic towards the man and offering him cover instead of trying to get him away from the kids he's willing to help hurt. If you don't want to be seen as being too close to a pedo, then don't defend him and let that rear end in a top hat twist in the wind. This isn't an intellectual argument for me. I know and am close with several people who've been hosed with by this at a young age (including people who are in the subset Milo directly tried to excuse) and watching people treat it as some thought exercise because they are continually arguing in bad faith is spitting in the face of their traumatic experience.

I'm sympathetic to the point that he needs psychological therapy to help him understand that defending the act of being a pedo is a bad thing instead of a good one in his weird attempt to justify the sexual abuse he went through yes I'm sorry to hear about the experiences you and people are close to have been through

Who What Now posted:So what did convince them besides memes and trolling? bloviations by people like sargon that sound intelligent and appear to be well-researched and thought out, but in fact aren't and won't hold up to scrutiny the kekistan thing he explains at one point as follows, which i transcribed/paraphrased a little bit from one of his videos: quote:I was looking at the UK home office and the census data, and I noticed that the qualifiers for the census... one of them was ethnicity. The categories for ethnicity, and these are their own words: "It's entirely self-defined and there are no objective criteria for ethnicity." And so, if you say you are that ethnicity, they have to register/accept it. And so, I've been e-mailing the census bureau to ask them: How exactly, can I get my ethnicity on the census? And then they googled 'kekistani' and rumbled us. They got back to us and said that there's an 'other' box, or we can write it in. So that's what we've got to do in 2020: If we can get more write-ins than, say, Jedi -- which got 16,000 write-ins as a religion and got registered as an actual religion in the UK -- then the UK will be forced to register us. i make no claims re: the correctness of any of what sargon said above Pittsburgh Lambic fucked around with this message at 01:08 on Jul 12, 2017 |

Who What Now posted:Anyone who needs somebody to explain to them that adults screeching about keks and feminism in a playground are not people you want to be associated with is already too stupid to help. I'm sorry, but it's true. Public education is poo poo (and going to get worse thanks to DeVos). Lots of kids and teens get their views (or have their existing terrible views reenforced) from lovely adults on the internets. Countering that trend is actually pretty important in the long run.

They were primed to blame someone, since society taught these guys they have some special inherent value for being straight, white, male, and cis. Of course, that doesn't account for these guys being dumb as a post and poorly educated-- outcomes were always poo poo for people like this and probably always will be. And of course the least capable whites are the ones who are most hurt by making society more fair. But we've passed onto them this white supremacists lie, so they are just looking for the reason why they aren't just getting an awesome job and having hot, virginal women throw themselves at them for infinite sex. And it of course can't be them, and it certainly can't be that the thing they are pining for was always a fiction. But people always want the easy answer, and when the YouTube scammers of the world come in and blame SJWs and minorities for taking their opportunities, they buy it instantly. Never mind that those things weren't owed to them anyway, and the minorities that have gotten ahead still have the table slanted against them and are almost certainly more capable than these basement dwellers. It's gotta be the fault of the women, queers, and POCs for not just breathlessly deferring to them in everything forever. These guys could have been turned against any group, the YouTubers of the moment just happened to ethno-nationalist swill.

Sargon is one of those people himself, in fact. This is untrue. You also see it bust down on national and class lines, which are just as unjustified. The point is they have unwarranted levels of self-worth, which leads to them thinking they are entitled to the easy life and piles of sex with attractive women. You have to start educating them that the baseline for life is way lower than that, but good luck when you have a society teaching them these points from Day 1 and reinforcing them via cultural products constantly. Anymore I have to think anyone who's fallen into these traps is now a lost cause, and we have to just minimize their ability to affect culture while properly educating the next generation with realistic expectations of life.

Yeah like, Chris Raygun's music parodies have me convinced that, alot of this poo poo can be blamed on nerds who got way into nickelodeon's stupid 90s attitude when they were kids and never bothered to grow up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AhGYo9TExU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwYd5cRlROE like alot of them just sort of live on the internet and think their gamer identity or whatever the gently caress is the most important thing in the world because they're morons or kids. I disagree with you about the self worth thing though, like you don't need to instill in people that they're worthless sacks of poo poo, you need to make sure they know basic empathy (hey women are people too!).

Racism and sexism are often used as tools to misdirect legitimate grievances against the upper classes. Don't hate the guy who profits from your labor, hate the guy who might do your job, hate women for being allowed in the workplace, etc. Of course, whenever someone like Diane Abbott points out this fact, people like Carlgon are the first to throw their toys out of the pram and accuse her of being the real racist.

They don't need to be knocked down a peg. It's not that society tells them they deserve these things, but that they need them. Sex and money is success in America. These dateless jobless losers gravitate towards awful things like Sargon because it asserts them as not the bottom rung. The economy and job market is poo poo. It's not anyone's fault they don't have a "good" job these days. That feeling of unfairness gets transferred to other things they lack in really gross ways. They see the problem sort of. But they want to win, not change the rules. So like the left try to fix the economy these guys pine for clearing the field so they can be the cool rich sex haver anyone worth a drat is supposed to be.

Which is what makes their crusades against feminism and consent even worse. Their main argument against these things is that they believe their privilege (of being able to coerce someone) is more important than someone else's rights to be free of said coercion.

The beliefs get created early, when their parents tell them that the government is a waste and that the foreigners are taking all our jobs. If you're lucky, you move to college or a city and interact with enough diverse people that you break free of dumb beliefs like that, but sadly it doesn't happen every time.

New Laci Green video on gender: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPdVDjQ9BE8 Edit: She needs better fitting glasses, she clearly as a problem with them falling down her nose. Most of the video is just her railing against TERFs, radical feminists, and, if I may use this term, radical SJWs (as I think it would be nice to call yourself a SJW without being associated with the overboard stuff happening on college campuses). I don't think she says anything particularly shocking or "red pill"-ish. There was one cringey joke at the end referring to herself as "mom" and needing a vibrator.
