Lemniscate Blue posted:I like "feminism-appropriating reactionary transphobe" better. This works better because whilst I think I understand the idea of calling someone a TERF I don't like insisting someone is a "radical feminist" just to make it fit the acronym. Also, FART!

RagnarokAngel posted:I think thats kinda no true scotsmanning that feminists cant have lovely values. I guess to me it's because I associate "radical feminist" with like, a hippie in the 60s burning her bra. Saying someone is a radical feminist as a way of associating them with trans-hate ruins the term. Either way thanks for explaining.

goddamnedtwisto posted:Actually it’s originally an American term that goes back to the 1830s Huh, apparently so. I always assumed it was just the name of the van that the police used (like it was an Austin Maria or something), especially as in old TV shows and films it always seems to be the same model of van, e.g. as in Withnail and I: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ7SzAm92e4 although this one's blue, and probably the other ones are too but they were in black and white. Anyway I learned something in the Freep thread that wasn't utter contempt, so that's a plus, although I'm now intrigued as to how that particular bit of slang made it over to the UK, which is generally self-sufficient in such things. [/quote] Weird, I've grown up in both countries and never heard of the term and you guys are talking like it's common.

Pontius Pilate posted:To keep it on topic, how’s freep responding to corona being real? Or new and improved avian flu to keep it more on topic. Assume a healthy dose of common flu comparisons and griping about the media overreacting; with a handful of freepers rightfully worried because of them being ancient, and then some of those descending into prepper madness; plus a whole shitton shrieking over how all borders should’ve been closed forever and this is all a conspiracy to bring trump down? From a short thread on Trump's response to the virus: quote:My President did a great job last night. He is always up front,out front and right! quote:The President has handled this thing brilliantly on every level. The longest thread on this I saw linked on the front page: Trump Says He’s Suspending All Travel From Europe for 30 Days quote:Monroe Doctrine Time quote:Correct,shut off Mexico. I just like Linda's strong middle-aged Midwestern mom energy quote:My husband is the president of the Midwest hockey affiliation (volunteer). They canceled the district....national championship tournaments. Hockey never cancels...I’ve been to games in northern Minnesota during a blizzard. Hockey never cancels...except now. My husband hasn’t been off the phone to ask why.....wow. Just wow. Though a great way to self-select I guess quote:Cruises are cheep! I looked tonight. 330 dollars for 8 day Caribbean cruise on carnival. I’m tempted to have me and my wife go. Leaves March 21st. Still thinking. No they do not, Brexit travel rules don't take effect until the end of the transition period. Quite a few Freepers made this same claim. quote:Italy is a major hot spot for Coronavirus, but banning travel from Italy would be ineffective. The EU nations have open borders, so there’s no way to tell if someone trying to fly from another EU nation was recently in Italy and might have a higher risk of carrying the virus. Since Brexit, the UK no longer shares open borders with the rest of Europe. Presumably to travel from Italy to the UK you would need passports and visas, which would document a higher risk of exposure. Hence a general travel ban from the UK is not necessary. Hey Max Iron Man quote:Ummm how about suspending travel from and to CHINA. Those assholrd invented it at wuhan. Tuberculosis from Mexico, what? Everything is just a reason to deploy troops across the southern border to this guy. quote:My thought on this is, how many Europeans are we keeping out in comparison to how many Central Americans are coming over the southern border? I feel like this is a dogwhistle quote:So if I go over I guess I can’t come back huh? That’d be fine as long as I go to Poland! quote:Ironic that there’s a travel ban between the Europe and US. All sorts of nasty, once-controlled diseases have been coming into the US through our porous southern border for decades.  Everyone knows that diseases are spread by nationality and have nothing to do with where you were. quote:Why ot just ban ALL travel from ALL non-Americans for 30 days, and also seal the borders? Please don't do this guys quote:“330 dollars for 8 day Caribbean cruise on carnival” Surprised that there isn't more like what you expected. It seems to be mostly "it's an overblown dem plot against Trump and he's handling it great, combined with a little 'CLOSE ALL THE BORDERS AND SHOOT MEXICANS'"

Amazing seeing Freepers try to argue with each other over Fox News telling them that everything is fine. Also lol at ladyjane there saying it's young people who are treating it as a holiday and infecting people when there's Freepers in every thread bragging about how they're still traveling and how they're not fooled by this whole hoax.

Honestly I thought I remembered Freep declaring the military over like a decade ago. Definitely when they dropped Don't Ask Don't Tell. What kind of difference does this new ruling even make to the military?

I don't remember seeing much blatant anti-Semitism and David Duke praising on Freep in the past. I think JimRob and whatever other mods there are just don't really check anymore and people can come straight from Stormfront et al to recruit in a way that wouldn't have happened pre-2016.

The only recent regs on Freep are now outright white supremacists there to further radicalise them, like that "White Lives Matter" poster. I checked and he regged last month, usually the latest regdates are like 2008.

Don't take this too far guys, Freep adores Nikki Haley and I'm pretty sure still loves Condi. They'd say she's in the bad place for not being Christan.

I think his kid will keep it going, possibly even modernise it somewhat when enough of the old timers die off. Don't forget, it's his families entire income (iirc aren't all the extended family on the payroll with different bullshit reasons?) so he has every motive to not let the cash cow die out. It eventually will of course because younger people don't pay for stuff like Freep, there's a million places online you can go be racist with other racists and call it conservative politics.
