are these guys seriously arguing that people shouldn't want to work someplace where they're not seen as categorically inferior by most of their colleagues?

In that they should accept the fact that they are inferior, on a biological level, yeah totally. Just accept that you're naturally not as good as men, ladies! You thought you liked coding and engineering, but you're wrong and you really should be nursing or something. I mean, if you were good enough, these dudes who already think you're naturally inferior would have recognized your abilities, because cognitive bias isn't a thing!

Vincent Van Goatse posted:If you want to see the real George Orwell you need to read his essays and book reviews. His current reputation as the right's pet leftist would horrify him. Oh that I do know. I never understood why some people latched on to him from the Right. I am also glad he hated Stalin, I wish more Western European leftists could disregard him and what he did.

I seem to remember Scalia quoting Harrison Bergeron in some dumb opinion on PC gone too far!! and Vonnegut actually issued a "you're reading it wrong, idiot" reply e: I got it sorta right quote:In 2005 the story was quoted by attorneys in a brief before the Kansas Supreme Court. Vonnegut was quoted as saying that while he did not mind the story being used in the suit, he disagreed with the lawyers' interpretation of it.[6] U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia quoted the story in PGA Tour, Inc. v.

Yeah there's nothing deeper than her just claiming that "if X is okay then there's no 'underlying mechanism' built in to [whatever system she thinks she's talking about] that explicitly says murder is not ok and therefore X == murder"

I mean it seems like it can be easily defeated by just explicitly saying out loud "murder is never ok" but don't let me get in the way of your weird masturbatory cultural-marxism-hating

We don't KNOW it's a fascist! It might be someone else who thinks that murdering people counterprotesting protests over the removal of a confederate monument is a great idea! You know, that diverse group of peoples.

and now i read that college student counterprotestors took a big stand against nazis in charlottesville, a group that rev thinks are more dangerous than nazis. worst being college students who take up the cause of blm and antifa, but they're all brainwashed sjw zombies regardless. e: also hilarious the lengths rev has gone to prove that the far right is harmless in america compared to islamists and commie antifas.

Super Mar if you're still reading this we don't think Scott Alexander is NRX or hate him, he's just kinda... naive... Like I don't think anyone in this thread hates him, he's just weirdly, i don't know, adorable in how bumbling and wrong he is about everything. Also who is "one unhinged dude who has a grudge bc I dissed Kant"? Vosgian Beast?
