  1. We should all now discuss whether this constitutes rape.

  3. These are individuals who have carried the rebelliousness of their teen years into adulthood. Along with their simplistic and infantile politics. And the notion that they are treated unfairly by the rest of society.

  4. John Cox What's wrong with being a commie? Mass genocide is perfectly acceptable when carried out by the left.

  5. It's well known that Stalin and Mao were feminithts

  6. Fuckizoid Yes its very much seen as an act of rebelliousness. Although, not much of one. But its still in keeping with the idea of signalling non-conformity. And that pretty much sums up their entire ethos.

  7. How strange you would mention RT! Because, guess who has been promoting both extremes of the debate? http://uk.businessinsider.com/facebook-group-russia-texas-anti-immigrant-rallies-2017-9?r=US&IR=T https://www.thenewamerican.com/tech/computers/item/27021-russia-bought-black-lives-matter-ads-fomenting-unrest Maybe you could've asked them about it while you were busy playing useful idiot?

  8. ''...This article says that 'queer theory' must stop stereotyping fat people. Even Professor Lauren Berlant does it in her critical essay about neoliberalism, Cruel Optimism! Fat people have been stereotyped. And its about time we stop doing that. Like those 'for and after' pictures of fat people. Or even Professor Berlant's own work when she uses the words 'a congealed form of history that hurts' [fat congeals]. The article instead highlights the often ignored work on the subject of fatness by [academic, author, essayist, critic, poet] Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick. Using Sedgwick's poem The Use of being Fat, this article argues the case for fatness. Leaving 'queer theory' with two questions...'' At about this point I realised I was wasting my life. And ceased to be interested in what the article, or the write up of the article, had to say. This is a disastrous failure of both the write up of the article, and the article itself. Because if your whole career is based on ideas, then, in order to spread those ideas (which presumably you wish to do), you need to make those ideas easily understood. As there is no point being in the 'marketplace of ideas' if you don't intend to sell your wares (as would be the case in the real world). But these are not ideas that the authors wish to sell. Outlining the basics of an idea should be of paramount importance. But instead we have deliberately incomprehensible (and grammatically bogus) writing. Designed to appeal only to (and be read by) an inducted elite. There are only two reasons why someone would write as badly as this. 1) They wish to appear cleverer than they actually are. Or 2) They wish to disguise the fact that, despite all the work involved (and tax dollars received), they have very little to say.

  9. Happened to come upon a discussion in the comments of one odd feminitht video. Usual incomprehensible leftist mumbo jumbo. No idea what they were talking about, but the words 'Marketplace of Ideas' was spread about liberally. I mentioned their appalling literary skills and asked why they found it so difficult to write in plain English. They replied '...quantum physics is complicated too'. So I reminded them that a 'Marketplace of Ideas' isn't much good if you purposely bury the goods under an unnecessary layer of repetition, 'in-words', and various other bullcrappery.

  10. Tho obviously, that doesn't absolve Piers Moron for being a twat. He was totally shitting himself about what Robinson might do to a book.

  11. That is very true. He is so shit scared he fears to even acknowledge why. Stockholm syndrome also comes to mind.

  12. Poor Brian =(

  13. Yes, it would be hilarious to see Sargon blunder in on another subject he knows little or nothing about.

  14. The irony of Russian state propaganda channel RT talking about free speech!

  15. This is a very good video. I don't pretend to know how it must be to feel you are born as the wrong sex. But just because I can't know how that feels, that doesn't mean this isn't a very real problem for other people. People can be born part male, and part female. This is a scientific fact. People can be born with gender dysphoria. Call it a mental illness if you get off on mocking the afflicted, whatever. But this is not a choice they make. People who are born part male/part female, or who believe they are born the wrong sex, are not third class citizens. They have the same rights and freedoms as everyone else. They don't need to ask permission to live their lives from anyone. If you are a rationalist, then the only logical conclusion you can come to is that these people have a right to live as happier life as possible. Which means they need a little support and understanding. Because the alternative is expecting them to crawl up in a corner and die. If you pick the alternative, you're not a rationalist and your thinking is illogical.

  17. Only, Robinson did indeed blame all Muslims

  18. A bit like religious Munchausen syndrome by proxy. He feels their offence.

  19. This is all very well, but do we know how many of these people are male?

  20. John Cox (misogynistic male oppressor name) It's 'differently abled', not 'dis'abled. Fascist.

  21. You've just made everyone feel unsafe.

  22. Well, whatever the Thingywotsit 5000 says about me, I'm way lower on the white guilt league than Ben Affleck. And at the end of the day, that's all that matters =)

  23. Yes, a lot of people are making capital out of this issue. Good for views.

  24. Unfortunately, the reason is most likely less colorful. These are individuals who have carried the rebelliousness of their teen years into adulthood. Along with their simplistic and infantile politics, and the notion that they are treated unfairly by the rest of society.

  25. And there is no connection between quantum physics and social theory (I don't know if it is called Social Theory, but that's what I'd call it). Because I don't need to know how this pc works to use it, I don't need to learn aerodynamics to fly on an airplane, and I don't have understand nuclear engineering to benefit from nuclear energy. But, in order for social theory to have any relevance to anyone, people must be able to understand it in order to utilise it. If we as a society have to rethink fatness, then we need to know why and how. Otherwise it's just a waste of time.

  26. Are any of them coming out in paperback do you know?

  27. I can understand your pain, and can see why you feel so unsafe. It must've been a terrible experience. PTSD should be kicking in right about now. Get your coloring book out.

  28. Not good enough. I don't just want katy Perry to understand. I want her to abase herself publically. Then commit hara-kiri.

  29. People usually fall back on unnecessary jargon to either appear to be more intellectual than they actually are. Or to cover the fact that they have very little to say.

  30. Yes. The easy part of freedom of speech is when you agree with what is being said. But none of us agree with all that is being said all of the time. Therefore, you either have freedom of speech for everyone all of the time. Some speech for some people some of the time. Or no speech at all for anyone. The third option is impossible. The second option is undesirable. So that just leaves us with the first option.

  31. I have no idea who Faith Goldy is. Is she on the far right or the far left? Idk. If her supporters hate the jews it could mean either!

  32. Its fairly obvious that whoever sent that email, if given the choice, would most certainly not stay as they are. But they don't have a choice. And I wouldn't exactly say gender dysphoria is a mental 'illness', anymore than being blind is a physical illness. Being born part male/part female most certainly isn't an illness. It's just a fact. Something didn't develop right. It's just all part of the human condition. We can either get antagonistic about it and act like western civilisation is coming to an end. Or we can accept these things do happen and try not to make the situation worse for them. But don't think for a moment those screechy purple-haired political absolutists (sjw's) represent these people. They will make political capital out of anything. Just as those on the far right do. It's all part of their ideology. Don't play along with them. The answer to one extreme, is not the extreme opposite.

  33. That all depends on whether it is a mental illness, yes?
    1
  34. Well, I assume you believe that there are not just physical differences between male and female? Hormones shape the way you think as well. Depression can be the result of a life situation or a chemical imbalance in the brain. But what if your brain was female, and your body male? Surely that would be less a mental illness, and more a biological fact? Not a delusion. But a physical reality.

  35. You have to be careful when talking about gender dysphoria and the 'great distress and risk of suicide' that comes with it. Its very likely this isn't a symptom of gender dysphoria itself, but a result of the reality of having to deal with the world around them. For example, personal relationships will be extremely difficult. I think you can imagine your own reaction if, after beginning a relationship with someone for a short while, you find out they are in fact physically the same sex as you. Rightly or wrongly, that would most likely be the reaction of the vast majority of people. You can't help how you feel about such things. But that is the reality of their personal life. I don't know much about gender dysphoria or transsexuals. But apparently there have been studies done where kids who grow up with gender dysphoria and who are supported and excepted by their family and those around them are happier than those who, let's say, don't have such an understanding environment. To put it bluntly, apart from the inevitable relationship problems, its having to face a world that finds them odd, weird, and more than likely wants nothing to do with them, that gets them down and drives them to suicide.

  36. What you have there is simply a proposal to RT from Twitter in regards to using their platform to sell their media during the US elections. It has nothing to do with Russian facebook accounts organising far right/far left demonstrations in the US. Try to stay on topic, yes?

  37. And obviously this pathological sexual addiction only effects those who can afford to book themselves into an exclusive anti-addiction resort. Everyone else is just plain wrong. Funny that.

  38. While I'm all for diversity (however you might wish to define that). Its not an alter to worship at.

  39. I mean, the Roman empire was 'diverse'.
