Also, Hillary is a moderate and anyone who has worked hard, as she has, to get where she is, isn't going to respect these snowflakes. Maybe, but she has a bad habit of repeating SJW talking points given the opportunity. Don't forget her infamous claim that women are the true victims of war because ...

Hillary wins the general election and becomes the first female president. Sanders supporters (and Hillary haters) are upset, but they shouldn't be.

John Cleese attacks SJWism: John Cleese says political correctness has gone too far, especially on America's college campuses, where he will no longer go to perform.

Plenty of "feminist allies" are nerds or people who were heavily bullied for one reason or another. I think much of the appeal of feminism for those kind of people is that it gives them the opportunity to transition from victim to perpetrator. The ability to join a Feminist Twitter mob and bully wi...

Certainly Elevatorgate was not the first instance of SJW tactics being used - the Wiscon incident was another and that occurred several years before Elevatorgate too. In that one we have the full use of doxxing, job targeting and death threats being made against a woman who committed the terrible c...

The solution to hateful and dishonest speech is more speech.... not less. More speech works against minor pests like PZM and Chanty Binx, and against cranks yelling from streetcorners.

I completely agree with you. I often disagree, even strongly, with what's written on BreitBart but I wouldn't want them to stop saying that I hate. I don't want Steersman to be banned from here, either. The root of the argument for censorship is always that "speech is dangerous" even though it's ac...

Slight tangent here - how do you stop leftists you know publicly shaming people on social media?

Posting rape allegations to social media is evil. Cross the line of running to the public for attention, rather than trying to establish a criminal case, and whatever blowback happens is entirely deserved.

Much of modern feminism is explained by realizing who has been gaslighting whom. And also cluster b. It's all Cluster B. Mental health and modern feminism are mutually exclusive.

Can any Americans tell me - is Trump a real possibility for Prez? Is there any real prospect Hilary won't get in?

The point of this post (other than having a long self indulgent whinge about Youtube nobodies blocking a Slymepit nobody) is that I see this as another example of the biggest difference between feminists and pretty much any other ideologues I run into online.

Amazingly, Mari is another transwoman who identifies as a lesbian. I can hardly believe it.

THIS is the US campus 'rape epidemic'.

I will say this: culling the islamists is only part of the solution.

I think this one is obvious enough, but I'd ask people not to try to make me define a bright line: if you do, the bright line will be "if you post a modified quote you will be banned, even if it's a FTFY or other obvious joke".

Academic feminist gets upset that male student opposes affirmative action for women, goes to Stack Exchange for advice on how to damage his employment prospects.

Society does need to make it a lot easier to report rape and less onerous on the person making the claim. No. Reporting a serious crime is not like ordering fast food.

My point is that it's a condescending thing to say. True, but there's virtually no way to communicate succinctly and without condescension to people whose views are so far separated from reality that they're not even wrong.
