Refried Hero posted:Well on a different, slightly related note, here's a decent video about Alt-Right tactics: I wonder if it’s possible to use these tools on reactionaries rather than just responding to them. It seems like only idiots have access to these sleights of rhetoric with any authenticity.

Stormgale posted:Shoe complaining left wing people being mean to contra Is shoe on head trying for some kind of seduction scene here? “The left goes after me too, Contrapoints. They’re so unreasonable, aren’t they? But just think about how reasonable I am and how the pepes always say they love me and that they’ll think hard about whether or not trans people should be killed.”

Yardbomb posted:It always feels that way when one of these assholes jumps into a situation. She keeps posting on Contrapoints’ twitter and stream chats and on Lindsay Ellis’ stuff like they’re friends having a good time, and even with Hbomb sometimes. It’s strange and unsettling.

fallenturtle posted:So you don't accept her explanation to why she doesn't consider this group white supremacists? That was the weakest part of her argument by far. Just because they banned a poster (or 2 posters, as there were two denying the holocaust) a year ago doesn’t mean that there aren’t more of them, just that they’re not vocal or don’t care. Just because some of them watch and like Contra or are ok with trans people, they’ve also created a group where members do whatever they want and the group bears no responsibility. The same Facebook page had people organizing harassment of the college feminist group, and they gave the same empty apology. If they had really turned the corner on being shits they wouldn’t call themselves the “free speech” club, as that’s an empty signifier for anything but 4chan-style abuse and dogwhistle white supremacy. I get that Contrapoints feel vulnerable and attacked and I very much sympathize, but she’s underselling that element.

fallenturtle posted:They're Lacy Greening her... the process will be complete once Nat starts dating the Golden One. I may not be as optimistic as she is, but Contrapoints will turn Golden One. But yes, that appeal is just like how the chuds tried to get Laci Green, putting focus on the “unreasonable” left while talking up their own politeness and willingness to listen to any position.

Cape Cod Crab Chip posted:Are you sure you've got your YouTube superstars lined up right, there? Correct me if I'm wrong, by all means, but Shaun is the one who I remember saying the main reason why he didn't go all right alt-right is, to paraphrase, "there but for the grace of God go I". I remember Contra saying she'd have been in feminist cringe compilations if you'd have pointed a camera in her direction during Iraq war protests. Can't source that claim, since I don't remember which video that was in, but there you go. She has a whole video about it: “how I became a feminist” or something like that. She literally describes being an mra who changed through being challenged by classmates and professors. She also had other youtube identities before Contrapoints that she’s scrubbed away, but people like Dick Coughlin remember her from when she was one of the annoying aggressive youtube atheists. She knew Lacy Green back when that’s all she was too, before Laci did sex education. And Laci later blocked her on facebook for some antifeminist posting or other. This feels kind of like dirty laundry, but she’s talked about it all in videos or commentary on videos.

multijoe posted:To be honest I don't know why SJ-left twitter feels they own Contra to the point they can dictate how and how not she spreads her message. Whether or not you think meeting the right head-on on their own ground is a worthwhile tactic, it's clear she's acting in good faith and at least trying to engage with the subset of the alt-right who genuinely mean what they say about freedom of speech and logic and debate and entirely consistent with her long-stated belief of engaging with her ideological opponents. It’s just like how nerds think they own their favorite comic books or Star Treks and go on insane vendettas when something they don’t like happens, or sports fans and their teams. Undersocialized nerds behave badly and possessively, especially when given any form of access.

Not So Fast posted:Hey, can we avoid posting poo poo like this, it's kinda sexist. Noted, though you have to admit that the unhealthy attention they get from gross womanhaters must to some extent inform their personae and the nature of their engagement with being “one of the good ones” who conforms to certain objectifying expectations. I admit it’s probably not a fun time for any woman to have or have to manage that kind of attention.

Linear Zoetrope posted:Unfortunately, I don't know if that's sufficient, because that seems to be a common talking point in the die-hard bitcoin corner. There is a species of natural-rights lunacy that probably would deny that capitalism or government are social constructions but are derived from the unity of consciousness or some horseshit.

Monglo posted:Devil's advocate: but children can't give an informed consent about most things. And are subjected to thing daily, that they actively give no consent to. That’s the point, silly billy: children literally can’t consent to anything. That’s why adults have to look after them and make choices about what it in their best interests. loving adults is never in their best interests. Look at what it did to Milo Yianoppolous.

Yardbomb posted:It pretty much perfectly illustrates with how much they use it, that people who do that are almost never arguing in earnest, they just want to pull debate club pseudo-intellectual bullshit. I think you’ll find that I merely demonstrated that in theory if a Jew had committed a crime that would have given the death penalty to a free German between 1933 and 1944, then morally speaking the holocaust could not have been—as you so emphatically claim—“entirely unjustified.” Until you refute that simple point, I have nothing more to discuss.

His wife is in his recent videos and seems alive. I’ve never heard of him before, but the recent videos I’ve seen have all been good and thoughtful.
