Looking at that fucktarded conglomeration of glyphs just reinforces in my mind something I've felt for some time. Far from being "skeptics" these loons believe in symbolic magic. They're obsessed with using the correct names of power and protective warding glyphs.

Here's my answer to "what you call trans folks":

"Bill"
"Sue"
"Jose"
"Quan"

you know, BY THEIR FUCKING NAMES.

It's a neverending source of wtf that these idiots spend so much time creating ever more specific labels and boxes to put people in, all the while screaming about being put in the wrong box.

Well you can't fucking help it at this point, the entire ground is nothing but boxes. Boxes all the way down it is. We now have, to be "correct" SEVENTEEN labels for gender ALONE. Good luck memorizing that shit.

Names. people have names. Maybe, just maybe, if we spend more time on the PEOPLE and less time on the fucking GROUP WE WANT TO PUT THEM IN, we'd have fewer fucking problems.

Normal People:
John: "This is Bill, he's a programmer"
Bill: "Actually I'm a sysadmin"
John: "Oh my bad"

SJWs:
Jack: "This is Steve, he's a programmer"
Steve: "NO IM NOT IM A SYSADMIN ITS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STOP OPPRESSING ME FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU"
Jack: "Brb, I need to commit seppuku, for I have brought great dishonor upon my house"

Even as a queer person, I catch myself thinking or saying heteronormative or cissexist things because it’s deeply ingrained in our ways of thinking. The best response is not getting offended when someone points these things out to me; it’s to recognize that I am a human who comes with cultural baggage that is impossible to shake. But that does not mean I should stop trying. And if Hall is as interested as I am in living in a world sensitive to people’s differences, I would hope she can find it in her to re-consider the inherent heteronormativity and cissexism in her positions and work to overcome those biases.

"I love the horde. I’m so used to being told I’m just being overly sensitive, or stupid or I just need to get over it and being understood like this is something that never happens to me. So thanks, I’m sitting here shaking and crying but thanks for being so understanding." (actual comment)

"you’re right to remind us to put trigger warnings, which I also have forgotten to do while in the throes of being affected by what I’m writing (or responding to). IMHO we should be working to make trigger warnings a habitual part of etiquette, like addressing others by name so they can find relevant posts. I’ll also try to be more careful. Thanks for bringing it up." (another actual comment)

They cry a lot. I have even seen some of them threaten suicide ("I did something terrible in meatspace, I should just off myself, I'm such a sexist/racist/etc), only to be consoled and given multiple hugs by 'the horde'. It's kind of, well, disturbing really!

Steven Novella chimes in to the Harriet Hall threat with a bit of a slapdown for Rebecca - pointing out that there are many posts on Skepchick blog using exactly the same language that the SJW and Watson are using to criticize Hall.

If you mention AmbrosiaX and Aratina in a single tweet, that seems to be a sufficiently obvious followcrime to get on the wall of fame.

They only have themselves to blame. Their whole methodology is flawed as they ban those they abuse. Their whole purpose is to abuse and exploit others so they have no choice now but to turn on themselves. As everyone predicted they have started to do that already. They have run out of victims.

SubMor straight up admits:

Of course not because privilege isn't about individuals. It's about group averages.

and then ceepolk tops it off with:

if you're on the lower end of the power and privilege axis, you cannot be racist.

Seeing as these two mods are not disagreeing with each other, I think we can say that these two statements can be taken as the Atheism+ consensus. I could be quotemining, but I don't think I am and the original link is up there to check.

Putting these two together paints a very ugly picture: whether or not you get labelled as a racist depends not on what you do, not even on who you are, but on what ethnic group you are a member of. Yes, other people have pointed this out, but I thought it could do with being made even clearer that this isn't hyperbole, this is what they actually truly believe.

So the morality of a person (assuming racism is worse than what they dismiss as racial bigotry, and it certainly seems so) is judged by the colour of their skin. Maybe this is my privilege talking, but that sounds kind of racist!

Furthermore, note that in this topic they have given up any pretense of fighting for the cause of atheism, secularism, or skepticism. A 5-year-old girl is being denied public education unless she is sent to a school run by a religious group. This is a no-brainer issue for all three of those causes, but all they can think of is "Brown people versus white people! White people are evil!"

Racism is about results, not attitudes/bigotry/racism, if my people can't use our irrational hatred based on race to negatively impact your people in a majority of outcomes, my people can't be racist towards yours.

I mean, when you really think about what she is saying it makes perfect sense. :liar:

All the SJW come down on the position that any/all tactics employed by them are fine, due to their Just Cause, while there opponents are not Just, therefore must follow certain rules.

Why am I not supposed to say these things?

Why am I not supposed to point out when I am being treated unfairly?

You are contributing to the bullying me!

But why don’t you stop and think? Think how it makes me feel when you say these things about me, or when Joe says all those horrible things about me?

I was shaking last night, but I wasn’t just shaking. I was crying and I kept feeling like I was going to throw up. I couldn’t get to sleep because I knew that he would keep on bullying me while I was sleeping.

And yes, your aggression against me now is making me shake. That’s about the least of my concerns right now, but it is upsetting. Why don’t you stop to think about my feelings before you lay into me?
