She lashes out at criticism fairly regularly on social media, no matter how weak the insult or valid/invalid the criticism may be. That's not something a face should be doing, especially one who supposedly represents an entire division. You have a weird definition of "lashing out" dude

Eat My Fuc posted:Even still the idea that someone fucks up and they must he banished is archaic, puritan nonsense. Allowing no path to redemption is just being cop like and regressive. Pretty much no one is doing this, FYI. The vast majority of the time these people show zero interest toward changing or redeeming themselves, hence why they get "banished."

Cerebral Bore posted:Now this is a crazy thought, but maybe the whole point of far-right groups coopting widely used signs and aesthetics is to make themselves look more popular and important than they actually are? They do it because it's a way to quietly identify eachother that's plausibly deniable and because it's actually pretty easy to use the "OK" symbol in contexts where it's clear you're not just saying "OK." They've been doing stuff like this forever, like 1488, it's not exactly new.

Cerebral Bore posted:And they do it using extremely common symbols because they want to give the impression that they represent some kind of silent majority when they're actually a tiny minority. What about "1488" or all the various crosses and runes and poo poo they use is "extremely common" or suggests they want to imply "silent majority?" The only symbology I'm aware of that could possibly fit in this category is the "OK" sign, which again is insanely easy to deduce the meaning of using basic context, and also wasn't even their own idea to begin with. All of these signs have an actual practical purpose, which is to identify each other publicly; that purpose falls apart if they can be easily mistaken for something else. No one is going to confuse Ospreay's hand sign as an indication that he's a fascist unless they're super reactionary and weird, because it has an obvious and established meaning other than that (and also it's not even the same sign). It always baffles me how many people get mad at others simply observing a thing that is happening.

And that it's actually OK to acknowledge what they are doing and keep an eye out for it rather than just pretending it does not exist. We're not letting them dictate what things mean, we're acknowledging things have different meanings in different contexts.

Gumball Gumption posted:And honestly, it makes me mad because it makes me mad when people treat racism, bigotry, and all these right wing groups as just being a list of things you can do/can't do or can say/can't say. It's a childish and harmful and ignores the actual effects these groups have. I don't give a gently caress who wears a Fred Perry polo, I just give a poo poo if the person wearing it is wearing it because they like it or because they want their nazi poo poo friends to know they're also a nazi. But those Nazi shits also shouldn't be able to intimidate, or convince well meaning people to help intimidate others, people into not wearing a polo. Then all of those things become their symbols and they own them and no one is actually pushing back on the Nazis, they're just pushing back on dumb aesthetic poo poo. You strike me as the kind of person who is responding primarily to six follower Twitter accounts rather than actual widespread attitudes. Making yourself aware of how the far-right identifies themselves is not the same as saying no one can use the OK symbol to mean OK, and frankly I've never personally encountered anyone believes that until this very thread. But I do see a lot of people complaining about that kind of mythical attitude as if it's a real problem society faces, and I just don't think that's the case. You can find at least one person expressing every dumb idea, that doesn't mean they matter.

Lamuella posted:The overall point continues to be that the cultural connotations of a British wrestler wearing Fred Perry are different from those of an American wrestler doing the same. https://twitter.com/RealKingRegal/status/600337288585850880 It's more of a square/rectangle situation here anyway. No one is going to assume you're a Proud Boy just because you're wearing Fred Perry, but if you're a Proud Boy you're probably wearing Fred Perry. I still think people are getting mad at the dumbest people on Twitter and assuming they're indicative of widespread beliefs when they're really not. Heck, Twitter thought Bird Box was good.

History Comes Inside! posted:You seem to have missed how this discussion got started because nobody is talking about a bad take on Twitter. I am well aware of that. My point is that people seem to be responding to beliefs that practically don't exist in reality, which frequently means they've just read the dumbest people on social media and mistakenly arrived at the conclusion that their attitudes are common. And I know for a fact you're doing this to some extent because you're reading my posts.
