PZ Myers 15 April 2015 at 4:46 pm Relax, everyone. I have literally met all of their demands in private correspondence: they got a couple of megabytes of pdfs emailed to them. What Radford also got is an anonymized release of the content of those emails to the general public. Theyâ€™re going to hav...

"Neocon" is "No Coen" spelled backwards. "Coen" is clearly a Jewish name (with the famous film-makers being a great example). Therefore, "neocon" is a thinly-veiled anti-semitic catch-phrase.

I agree that not all subpoenas require a lawyer and apologize for the misleading, blanket statement.

To return the favor, Dave, please know that the "idiot" was aimed at P Z Myers, not you or anyone else. I did see what you wrote as snark, same as Lsuoma.

Also, someone should send Ben Radford's lawyers a copy of the link to the archive of P Z Myers' blog post from today (in case he deletes it, especially after consulting a lawyer of his own). There are no boundaries set on the demand for blog posts, so the one that he just made needs to be included (...

Also, follow up question. Is pz myers a part owner of the FTB website? If so, then the entire free thought blog website should fall under this order.

The SJWs aren't just letting the perfect be the enemy of the good; they're forcing it into unholy matrimony with the bad.

Last comment before getting back to work. What I find the most frustrating (and constitutes the greatest obstacle to getting through to Ashley Miller) is how they will not step back and start over with a fresh, skeptical mind. As each piece of information is given to them, they resist because they a...

I know we are talking specifically about the Mystery Groper here but doesnt the inability to 'confirm what is real and what isn't' describe Benson in a nutshell? I, personally, would focus on how, by the definition being used by so many people on FtB, including Ophelia Benson, herself, she has acte...

Indeed. I was tempted to respond with 'So maybe you've got some idea of Michael Nugent's predicament now,' but that would have been too combative - and I wanted to see if anyone at FTB is willing to serve their particular brand of justice by resurrecting the issue, as per my subsequent post. That m...

I just made a fundamental error, inferring that it is Michael Nugent's maleness that prevents him from being able to do the same thing as Ophelia Benson ... the previous "rule" of IOWWDI had it covered, already. My bad.

Tigzy brought up The Mystery Groper on Ashley Miller's blog, which was amusing and cool, but not as much as Ashley's response to the question of why Ophelia Benson memory-holed the whole thing: It looks like it was speculation and she couldnâ€™t confirm what was real and what wasnâ€™t, as far as I c...

I hesitate to ask (because most of my recent questions have been colored by my frustration), but what do TERFs call themselves? I assume that they don't wear the TERF badge proudly and have a more inclusive-sounding label for themselves.

I really appreciated kirbmarc's point-by-point, agree or counter, to the list of rape-apologist attributes that was posted in the Ashley Miller comments. Worth the effort.

Part of the reason why I have some suspicion as to her story is how vague she is and how contradictory her story is. For example in a single paragraph she says: â€œIt was intensely frustrating,â€ Smith said, to â€œwatch other women walk straight into the same situation. I have no idea if anyone el...

I was about to post this, but decided to scan down a bit, in case I was ninja'd.

What I'm waiting for is Ashley Miller's explanation of this (which is in the OP of the second thread): The problem I have with Michael Nugent fundamentally boils down to his 9/17/14 blog post in which he equivalizes his complaints about PZâ€™s tone in his posts to PZ agreeing to post a firsthand acc...

My positive feelings about Ashley Miller were short-lived, killed by:

The problem with Nugent isnâ€™t that he is unwilling to publicly condemn Shermer, itâ€™s that he publicly condemns PZ for calling Shermer a â€œputative assailantâ€ and for pointing out Shermerâ€™s changing stories.

You know, I'm starting to like Ashley Miller. When someone complained that using pitbulls as an example of viciousness, she pointed out that pitbulls are, indeed, vicious.

Yeah, probably too far, but I'm rather tired of the pathetic "logic" in those two threads. I don't see much point to them, either.

Out of curiosity, but only to those who like to use the wheelchair in an elevator as evidence that Michael Shermer raped Alison Smith: is Melody Hensley repeatedly raped or drunk, given her inability to get out of bed?

Re Smith/Shermer There's always the possibility that Smith got herself shitfaced after she got boinked my Shermer I'm thinking about the Daisy Coleman case and how that finally turned out.

Someone is archiving Ashley Miller's blog to keep up with all of her edits and she walks back her BS accusations, yes?
