Just chiming in out of curiosity: it said of the planned strike on March 8 that women were supposed to wear red. Am I right in reading this as a sort of weird nod to the Communist International or the general Leftist resistance movements that formed during the beginning of the last century? I know that during certain periods of struggle, there was common cause struck between the likes of socialists and communists but mostly I'm just wondering if it's an allusion?

Or if it's some dumb militant feminist crap like representing menses.

so, trump was lying about his contact with Russia during the campaign. the presidency has been a nonstop stream of falsehoods from the whitehouse, and a bunch of Russia poo poo happened already.

but here's the thing

this isnt "trumps hosed" thread, this is hello welcome to hellthread where 25% of the thread are frog people (please dont be racist against white people)

im not sure how familiar you are with the internet frog movement, but essentially its composed of the dregs of the internet, supported by popular talking heads on youtube. the message of the movement is surprisingly coherent while simultaneously tackling no real issues - its entirely an anti-movement, a counter-cultural backlash. russia, transparency, children getting proper meals, environmental protection, a functioning government all don't matter to them; all that matters is:

*the out of control and delusional "leftists" (read: people who are not frog men or republicans) are put in their place
*feminists ruining videogames/sjws get put in their place
*clinton is put in her place
*immigrants (read: muslims) get put in their place

and these issues are repeated over, and over, and over -- in a variety of different ways, mind you, but the core message is still generally the same. those youtubers ive mentioned make good money just spewing the same talking points about about immigrants, feminists, and leftists in video after video. they ironically condemn echo chambers while simultaneously forming one of the largest on the internet, and these echo chambers have solidified those notions to the point where rational discussion becomes nigh impossible (as you have seen in this thread).

finally, i doubt that any of the frog people here actually give a gently caress about trans people, but they do know that trying to remove minorities basic human rights is an effective way to distract conversation (and if you think loving with people's human rights in order to further your own goals is a scummy thing to do, keep in mind, they don't care; they have an Enemy, and the ends justify the means)

so yeah, there you go, frog person 101. lemme know if i missed anything.

Nice meltdown. You are losing the culture war, deal with it.

Kjoery posted:

i guess this is kinda futile, but it doesnt need to be like this, you know. i guess youre convinced that rational discussion is futile with the Enemy, because they are inherently irrational in their ideals.

vehemently believing oneself to be at war with an enemy that cannot be reasoned with leads to a breakdown of communication. communication breakdowns mean that the "Other Side" cant try to represent their side and their perspectives.

so i guess, by that reasoning, a large enough group believing themselves to be in a culture war could lead to a breakdown large enough to actually cause real conflict.

but the notion of culture war seems absurd and inherently counterproductive to me

How can there be communication when one sides entire communication strategy is to silence any dissenting opinion by any means necessary? Every argument presented by the right is immediately dismissed by the left as either non valid or vile and despicable. The left consistently acts like they have everything 100% figured out and have no blind spots on any issue where they could possibly be wrong. Then act accordingly. I don't see any right wing rioters torching downtown or a campus because some one they don't like is speaking there.

you're on the money here. right wingers style is more of the "threaten a childrens birthday party with shotguns and call hem niggers" or "shoot up a minority place of worship" variety.

Both sides have bad actors who go off reservation. The difference is that the right wing lunatics are publicly denounced while the left rallies around theirs and defends them as paragons of the cause.

Kjoery posted:

the frog man movement is a real thing on the internet??? making observations about the nature of a movement is a thing one can do when it has a coherent set of ideals or strategy. i mean, people calling the frog men nazis are obviously missing the point, they aren't actually about nazism, thats just shock humour (i would argue that the movement encompasses many neo nazi ideals, but neo nazism isnt actually nazism, also for less obvious reasons i guess).

this persecution complex is one often echoed in the frog cambers, yes. the thing is, persecution complexes are self-fulfilling prophecies; if you believe yourself to be wrongfully persecuted beyond rational debate, then obviously you cant rationally debate the subject anymore. when people of different perspectives then try to discuss the topic, the discussion immediately gets shut down due to this persecution complex, leading to the party attempting conversation to usually get upset. them getting upset then reinforces the notion of persecution, and so the cycle continues.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your point but the left is just as guilty of this as the right. If not more so. It seems like it's the burning core of every left wing ideology.

its actually really easy to tell which videos are frog man videos, and which videos are critical of frog man videos just by looking at the like:dislike ratio

People are exactly the same regardless of what dumb societal constructs they've built around themselves, or what irrelevant rock they happened to be born near. The whole identity politics thing is merely a club with which to attack opponents with. The tenets and beliefs are cast aside or ignored the second they are no longer useful for that cause. Religion and superstition is a weird side effect of our barely functional, jury rigged biology and is always cast aside or embraced as practicality and convenience demands.
