mysterious frankie posted:The facts that Hillary would be a historic president (not a "might actually blow up the world" historic president like we have now) and I could be reasonably sure how and where I would be brutally hosed for the next 4 years, were the two ameliorating conditions that made voting for her only suck a normal amount. Clinton would have only been historical in a myopic, nationalistic sense. Britain and Canada have already had women leaders, and Thatcher did far more (for better or worse) that Hillary ever would have accomplished. Although maybe the "It's her turn!" poo poo rings extra-extra hollow outside the States.

Office Surprise Store posted:the fact that they actually named it "Problematic" shows that they have no interest in actually making it funny and are just pandering to dipshits on twitter mate Moshe Kasher was on Joe Rogan's podcast recently and either doesn't think cultural appropriation is a legitimate grievance or he didn't have the balls to defend himself. He said something to the effect of 'cultural appropriation as such is an irrational concept and not a real problem, but the anger directed at it is real and justifiable because of historical injustice" like he's either a woke bitch or pretending to be one for the money, either way he's boring af when he talks about this stuff i saw him live a few years ago and i didn't realize he would morph into a hipster blob so quickly unlimited shrimp has issued a correction as of 02:14 on Apr 21, 2017 |

Dapper_Swindler posted:of course he did. gently caress him. he plays with his partners emotions so he can gently caress around and pretend how cool and brave and progressive he is and how nothing has negative consequences. god i am gonna sound like a moral majority dickhead, but trying to spin hedonism as some cool and progressive thing thats brave feels loving stupid and wrong. if you want to do it fine, but dont bay on twitter about how cool and progressive you are because you use your partner or you getting cheated on and are dumb enough to believe the cheaters lies. this poo poo will have blowback a decade or so from now. free love and all that stuff in the 60s broke alot of hearts and led to the moral majority and people going hard right because they are broken shells and need jesus to fill them up.

There's a whole species of woke that confuses signifier with signified. In Bob Chipman's infant brain, there is a categorical difference between general statements about "white people" and general statements about, say, "black people" or "women" or whatever other victim group he's decided to ally with. If you assume he's self-aware and that his thinking is internally consistent, then his problem with racist thinking isn't that it enables discrimination against an arbitrarily defined category of people who are racialized without their consent; rather, that the wrong arbitrarily defined category of racialized people is being discriminated against. But more than likely he's an idiot who collects progressive ideas like Boy Scout badges and has no idea why he believes any of it. He's like an angry high school atheist who thinks that abolishing religion would solve the problem of magical thinking, irrationality, and pattern recognition.

I like that thread. A poster who claims to have ended up in a psych ward post-election thanked another poster for writing the equivalent of a first draft of a lovely Sorkin speech about the importance of not giving up. It's a cuddly place. Further down the page, someone apparently made this post in earnest: quote:as a coethnic, gently caress off and die dibs on the forum name "as a coethnic,"

In bleak '44, Julius Streicher bends to the task of caricaturing D&D. He later reveals at the Nuremburg trials that he "could not make more grotesque that which had conceived in the shadow of God" and simply reprinted posts in Der Stürmer word-for-word. He is sentenced to death.

Well over here in Canada,quote:In this regard, it should be kept in mind that discrimination is not usually practiced For you see, such a requirement is too burdensome for civil proceedings as it requires a criminal as opposed to civil standard of proof. It is simply enough to weigh the balance of probabilities and determine that the white man, by virtue of being physical instantiation of the concept of White Supremacy, was almost certainly discriminatory, whether he intended to be or not.

The problem is that we live in a world of finite resources, and you need to pick and choose what gets the focus. Critical theorists and their direct-action counterparts like #BLM create an unwinnable scenario and then complain that their racial justice platform doesn't resonate with the 87% of the country that isn't black. Intersectionality has poisoned activism imo e. and to be clear I'm not saying no war but class war, but I think you need to find common cause if you're going to build the kind of political coalition you need to get things done. That common cause isn't going to be a niche identity issue because nobody buys the "[X] justice is economic justice, too!" argument and people need a personal stake in the fight before they're going to show up. unlimited shrimp has issued a correction as of 22:11 on Jun 26, 2017 |

idk their website contains some pretty stupid principles like "We see ourselves as part of the global Black family and we are aware of the different ways we are impacted or privileged as Black folk who exist in different parts of the world" and "We are committed to disrupting the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, and especially “our” children to the degree that mothers, parents and children are comfortable." As off the deep-end as their Toronto chapter is, you still need a university education and postmodern sensibilities to comprehend and agree with a lot of the "main" platforms beyond what's stated in the name.

"We are committed to fostering an intergenerational and communal network free from ageism. We believe that all people, regardless of age, shows up with capacity to lead and learn." ... kinda gives it away that they're spearheaded by some (((privileged))) college kids hepped up on Critical Race Theory who should definitely be taken seriously because ageism is never okay, guys.

Crane Fist posted:It seems like your argument here is that they're bad because you're too dumb to understand what they're saying no my argument is that Crane Fist posted:BLM['s leadership] is coming from a place of academia and class privilege because class war is OVER you guys lohli posted:This is about fatherless families getting support from the community but the way it's phrased makes it seem like they're talking about the disintegration of the black family somehow being almost an intended act of rejecting of western norms. There's no doubt in my mind that this incoherent platform was put together via the same sort of horizontal democracy that made OWS such a smashing success.

if you don't understand the hilarious tone-deafness of people who sound like grad school burnouts while complaining about privilege, while advancing a radical left platform under the banner of racial justice, and who let themselves get schooled by Clinton while clowning on Bernie, then perhaps it is you who are the someone that should be mocked in this thread

Crane Fist posted:What exactly is wrong with it though? Like I get that it's pretty fancy language but it's used in service of the noble goal of acceptance and inclusion. What kind of loving idiot objects comes along and goes "well I agree with what you're trying to do but you expressed it incorrectly so I'm out" apart from mindless dead-eyed mass media cowards and disingenuous fucks concern-trolling for a way to bash the queers without coming out and just admitting gays make them uncomfortable? besides Jizz Festival posted:It's an indicator that they're going to focus on academic nonsense with no connection to normal people's lives, idiot. ... what's wrong with it is that it suggests (to me) that they aren't actually interested in communicating with the people they claim to be supporting. they have big ideas and big words for other people with big tuition debts. it's the height of arrogance and arrogance is not a virtue. more conspiracy-mindedly, it suggests that they are coming from an academic critical theory background which is a morass of stupidity and nonsense, and even if they have nice sounding ideas, god help us if they themselves get to legislate them. e. passionate dongs posted:oh no my brain

Crane Fist posted:BLM isn't about that genderqueer destroy the family thing, You can quibble about who or what BLM is, given its decentralized nature, but whoever fashioned those core principles on the main site was not invoking that language to wow the rubes with their fancytalk. You don't use wording like "[w]e are committed to disrupting the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement" because you want to help families as we understand them, you use that wording because you want to destroy the old paradigm and radically redefine what a family is. And fine, maybe that's a good thing, but let's speak honestly.
