The one thing I know is to never fuck with (i.e. pet, play etc) with an aid dog. They are there to do a job and the owner doesn't need you distracting their aid dog from that job. Hell, almost every aid dog I have ever seen is labeled as such.

Great find, Dick!
I spotted it on Ally Fogg's twitter feed.
Kassiane has a thread up at Atheism+ called "Amanda Marcotte's ableism" (apparently Marcotte speculates about the ASD status of people she finds unempathetic or socially awkward? Something like that). FTB comes in for some general criticism (apparently it is their blind spot ;) ).

Amadan comments that s/he is chewing over some of the general points about ableism raised in the thread and isn't sure s/he agrees totally, to which Ceepolk replies --

"the people who are directly affected by marcotte's abelism have said right here that it is. That's absolutely basic 101 how to tell if something is ableist, and this isn't a 101 zone. there's nothing to consider, unless you don't think that their experience is meaningful or valid."

Oops - don't think about or consider something without Ceepolk's permission - that's big a no-no!

Though Setar's comment is pretty good.

Being that easy to troll, plus the fact that Justin suffers from the common error of not being as witty as he thinks he is, leads to his growing pile of boneheaded mistakes.

Maryam is the only one there who is sensible and who brings up REAL issues of theocratic sexism. The other bloggers there are just attention seeking missiles who exaggerate and/or make it all about themselves. Their tales of woe are contrived, and indulged in, states of victimhood.
I wouldn't say she's the only one, Mano Singham is also good, and some of the newer bloggers show promise... for example, Yemmynisting has some interesting things to say about the soldier's murder in London:
I was perplexed as to how a Nigerian would claim British soldiers are killing Muslims and women in his land but then it dawned on me that he was not talking about Nigeria, He was referring to Afghanistan, Iraq and other war torn Islamic countries. To this British born man of Nigerian origin, his land was not Nigeria; his homeland is the Muslims headquarters of the world. His adopted religion has totally erased his nationality, his identity and his history. Religion has taken firm hold in his deluded, sick brain.
Since she's also from Nigeria I suppose it's A-plus-approved for her to say that, but is it colonialist othering when I quote it? :think:
I don't think I'll ever be able to take her seriously after that poem where she gets horny over natural disasters. :shock:

Actually some of the stricter versions of Islam dictate that he is not supposed to talk to uncovered women. So he has to do that because he is on TV and one of the adherents to that sort of regime would get offended otherwise. Mind he is already in trouble with those who believe that it is haram because she is not veiled in the first place.

Google the phrase "salafi marriage bandits" and you will see that this is a problem that some in the various Muslim communities are aware of. While there is at least one informal organization I know of in the UK that has been set up to deal with the fallout (finding shelter and eventually another husband for some of the victims and so on) there are difficulties in trying to prevent the culprits from reoffending in the first place.

Some of the reasons are cultural and the fact that the majority of the women hoodwinked are unwilling to come forward in public in the first place for all the various reasons that for example rape victims experience. Even so, some have complainied semi-anonymously for example here: https://marriagebandits.wordpress.com/ Everyone involved actually are pretty reluctant to airing their dirty laundry in public, and I imagine even more so in the West.

Basically, the "Marriage Bandits" have discovered "Game" and what you are seeing is one version of the worst type of PUA, Muslim style. Like one story I heard of, where a young woman was married in Venezuela and weeks later abandoned in Egypt.

As a side note, the PC crowd is not going to like hearing this but from what I see a substantial number of women do not seem to be able to help themselves and appear to have an involuntary response to men who exhibit the "Dark Triad" traits, some much more so than others.

Viewed in this light I am starting to speculate that perhaps the ways that societies organized themselves over time have been in response to observed results, and that many of the things that make no sense to us nowadays may have had a solid reason for being implemented in the first place. Cue the whole business of "male disposable" imposed monogamy etc. etc. etc.

And who said he doesn't deserve criticism? The real critique is between doing nothing and something. This is why EG earns a bit of respect. And the spitgobs from the z-seats earn none.

Indeed.
He gets a lot of coverage from the likes of Svan, Ophelia and PeeZus for the simple reason that he is accident prone - particularly the sort of accidents that involve feet ending up in mouths.
He's an easy target because they can always rely on him doing something silly and thus justifying their vilification.

My experience doing volunteer tech support for the blind has led me to conclude that you need to have a lot of patience if you are blind and using a windows GUI on a computer.

How would you like to have to call me every time you needed to do say a money transfer because you can not tab to the field, but have to click on a specific spot that could be anywhere on your screen?

So along with the daily frustrations, try living alone and doing your own cooking for example if you can not read the labels on the cans, it is easy enough I imagine for that sort of thing to accumulate and to express itself in a manner disproportionate to the actual event.

Yup. But there is also this:

I think we should be careful about jumping on Silverman's shit for this stunt. Hell, we should be careful about jumping on anyone's shit for any single incident unless you want to pick up your baboon feces and join their crowd.

Some people may be pissed that Silverman asked Justin to denounce all sorts of practices that Justin isn't involved in. But on the flip side, Silverman may also be trying to give Justin some (what he considers) good advice on how to navigate these politics. When he said "@justinvacula can't get into this now. One final word. If you can't bring yourself to fight shit, you will be seen as approving it." That is probably exactly why Silverman jumped on this bandwagon. Silverman is in a political position & this is how he thinks the best way of dealing with it is for himself.

I am trying to recall the last few hostile interviews with Silverman, but he and atheists get accused of all sorts of shit. If I am not mistaken, Silverman's response tactic is to loudly denounce approval for all such activities that he & atheists are accused of. For at least as hostile interviews go, that kind of takes the wind out of their sails for continuing that tactic for the duration of the interview.

I don't know exactly how Silverman stands on these issues, but if he is willing to do an interview with Justin, I suspect he at least understands both sides of the coin. Given the baboon's reaction to the upcoming interview, I hope Silverman has not made a costly mistake of getting involved, as with them, you just can't get involved, you have to be pure in your involvement.

I don't blame him for defending Rebecca. She showed him kindness when so painfully few did, his loyalty is an understandable consequence.
Since when is "defending" Rebecca for doing the right thing a blameworthy offense? She has done some bad dishonest things to try to achieve her (questionable) objectives. That doesn't make her a monster.
Fair point. When I said "blame" though was referring to his defense of Rebecca in her argument with Lindsay, and his criticism of Lindsay. So easy for emotion to cloud judgement. I don't think he's seeing clearly there but I understand why that might be difficult. I didn't mean blame for her kindness to him. My perception of her shaded to a very dark grey from black for making some effort to help him.
Trophy: The blame also rests on anybody who noticed what was going on and didn't try to get things sorted. So many SJWs there and nobody managed to get these issues fixed?
/nod. Melody's lack of action was really bad, but even if she had made the changes he asked for he still would have encountered all the other crappy behavior from the rest of the crowd, which sucked.

Also, the FtBers etc. constantly claim that the people who criticise them (such as those here) approve of anything nasty that does happen to them. This isn't borne out by the facts from what I have seen on this forum, but their constant insistence on it is going to influence the narrative for anyone who doesn't come here themselves to see it isn't true... and the format of this website is not conducive to making it clear that most of us disapprove of authentically bad shit (as opposed to verifiably made-up shit like the claims about Sacha intending to accost Watson) that happens.

That's not a criticism of this website, but it is just a forum and so if you want to understand it you are going to have to commit to digging through at least a dozen pages or so to get a feel for how things are - and that means reading with a sympathetic eye rather than just skimming it looking for things that can be matched to a preconceived idea that it is awful.

When I was about 13, a neighbour had a dog that was half dead, a ~15yo boxer. It used to pace in circles in the yard, yelping and growling. It would stop occasionally to bark at the same space of non-descript wall as though there was a burglar. Then it would resume pacing.

That dog is Ophelia Benson. If you had mercy, you would shoot it.

When put that way, it does make a bit more sense. Add the factor that one might assume the WiSC conference to be a more understanding and receptive environment for persons with various disabilities and it isn't that much of a stretch to see why the frustration might run to a higher level. So, good point and I retract my 'self-centered' comment.

I don't know why this guy needs to be on anyone's side. He has a set of issues, and at least he is clear about spelling out what they are.
bovarchist wrote:Also, as an aside, I'm not sure the author is entirely consistent about how he wants to be treated. Is he asking to be treated like everybody else because he's just as capable as they are, or is he asking for special help and consideration because he's disabled?
I am going to go with neither. He spells out exactly what is needed and what isn't. I do think it somewhat odd, that he chastises them for explaining the lanyard which he says is obvious, but there are plenty of other scenarios such as the refreshments that are not obvious to everyone else as to what he is aware of or what he is not. For all anyone else may have know, he might have said 'duh, I can smell & hear the coffee.'

On one side, this guy would have been better served if he had piped up earlier in the event about some of the issues he was running into. On the other side, Melody completely failed to take advantage of being forewarned about his needs in that email he sent well in advance. It was also a stupid mistake to not attempt to get the guy a refund for the difference in the early bird special. I understand Melody being in close to an impossible situation of speakers not having power point sides even produced before the event for her to pass along to him. But some speakers probably did have them ready. She just completely dropped the ball and didn't even make an attempt at reasonable accommodation.

If I were Melody, the smart choice for an event small as this, would be to have obtained a volunteer to interact with people who have disabilities to make sure their needs were being met. Volunteers are cheap, as long as you don't need a huge amount of them, and they typically love doing shit like this. Plus the volunteer would get free access to the conference. It would have been the a great easy catch-all to head off disability issues & concerns.

Note to everyone else, learn from other people's mistakes.

Fuck the dried up vacuous cunt. I would rather have brain cancer than be her. Imagine for a second what steps you would have to take in life to become such a vicious, dried up old toad? Her own self-inflicted misery is crueller than the vilest misogynist fantasies she barfs up. I would feel pity. But she's not a dog.

Some have noted before, when given the opportunity, speak out against something. However, the flipside is that other people have the prerogative of interpretation. They determine the narrative, and they frame the reactions to it and they make the demands, while they are seemingly beyond criticism. They are the judges so to speak. And that, precisely, must be changed. Especially when the Baboons are always on about some harassment and stalking, they are leading others by the nose ring. Watson or Eristae or someone whines about harassment again, and we are expected to give them support. AND that, my friend, is bullying. It is no different to when a silverback is parading on the school yard, suddenly charges to someone, stares in their face and exclaims: "DID you just mock me!?" and then demanding apology. Where I more feel like kicking in their balls, making jokes and from then on really mocking them. Bullies deserve nothing else.

I just want to empty a box of corn husks over my face while smelling a cocktail of tuna oil and pensioner farts as I jerk off and scream JESUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! I don't want much and I promise to hurt nobody. I love you Ophelia.

Wow, quotemine target much?
Everything's a quotemine target with those cunts. You could say how much you enjoy cooking with your family and they would say "OMGZ!!! EH IS USIN' IZ FAMBLEE FOR INGREDIENTZ IN CANNIBALZ COOKEREEY!!!11"
There's no point in watching what you say so you might as well say how you feel.

For what it's worth I prefer the analogy of her being an incessantly barking, toothless and incontinent Yorkshire Terrier that mistakenly thinks everybody is scared of it when in reality they just want her to shut the fuck up and stop shitting everywhere.

Some have noted before, when given the opportunity, speak out against something. However, the flipside is that other people have the prerogative of interpretation. They determine the narrative, and they frame the reactions to it and they make the demands, while they are seemingly beyond criticism. They are the judges so to speak. And that, precisely, must be changed. Especially when the Baboons are always on about some harassment and stalking, they are leading others by the nose ring. Watson or Eristae or someone whines about harassment again, and we are expected to give them support. AND that, my friend, is bullying. It is no different to when a silverback is parading on the school yard, suddenly charges to someone, stares in their face and exclaims: "DID you just mock me!?" and then demanding apology. Where I more feel like kicking in their balls, making jokes and from then on really mocking them. Bullies deserve nothing else.
Great, now Im picturing Joe Pesci playing Rebecca Watson:

When we've seen the baboons twist Ron Lindsay's vanilla WiS speech into a diatribe worthy of a fucking lynch mob demanding he gets sacked from his job I'm surprised anybody is really bothered about being quote-mined.

Threat/victim post coming in 10...9...8...7...
Fuck the dried up vacuous cunt. I would rather have brain cancer than be her. Imagine for a second what steps you would have to take in life to become such a vicious, dried up old toad? Her own self-inflicted misery is crueller than the vilest misogynist fantasies she barfs up. I would feel pity. But she's not a dog.
That aspect I agree with completely. If you are that miserable 24/7, why maintain that lifestyle? I do not follow her at all, she offers nothing of interest to me on any level. I've seen enough of her work posted by others that I occasionally wonder if the running threat narrative she maintains is an honest misperception on her part (which would be truly a sad thing to live under that self-constructed perceived reality) or, like RW, intentionally maintains that narrative in an effort to gain attention. The latter is at least an intentional effort and,while dishonest in and of itself, isn't a symptom of delusional paranoia.

In either case, the result is very predictable:

Which, when it comes down to brass tacks, is definitely more attractive than the reality of Ophelia "Fucking Stupid Bitch" Benson.

No need to quotemine that one, Fucking Stupid Bitch.

Agreed. And surely he'll be featured on B&W shortly.

Still, if it leads to a video of this…

…then Franc will have a shot at overcoming THE AMAZING ATHEIST in another category of notoriety — absurdist erotic protest performance art. So that would be quite something.

David Silverman denouncement caveat:
Hatred is bad, okay?

Sometimes I think that franc is an Ophelia sock puppet, designed to exhort outrage, sympathy and (most importantly) donations, from her flock by making up stupid insults that are handy for quoting. She's been living off that 'cunt-kick' line for the past year and a half.
Why doesn't franc just put a paypal link for Ophelia donations in his sig and have done with it.

It's all very meta, I know. But let me have some fun in this wretched week, dammit. (Althought I'm sure Oklahoma people are having it much worse; my condolences to you all).

I think it can be a useful debate tactic. If someone if flailing around insisting your stand for something that has nothing to do with you, go ahead and strongly denounce such behaviors, and move the discussion back to more productive grounds as their big beef has been deflated. On the flip side, it does help to reinforce their negative. I guess the cost/benefit of that situation is how well you debate the other issues at hand and move the discussion back on course.

As far as Silverman goes, I personally think he made an error. He wasn't trying to move a debate back on course. Now that he has the attention of the SJWarriers, they will be expecting him to toe the line every step of the way. Any slip up in their expectations of his purity, leaves him two steps away from being their witch-of-the-week. It has bitten way too many good people in the ass. The only way to win is not to play.

It is interesting to note the word used by the cleric to describe Rihads challenge of his hypocrisy.

You said it better.
*We* cannot fucking win the baboons over. Give them flowers and you will be accused of triggering their hay-fever. Send them chocolates and you're being lactose-intolerant-ableist.
I don't know what worrying about the baboon reaction over somebody's choice of insult or preferred vulgarity is supposed to achieve.

ditto that. It is good to take a break from time to time. My busy season (hopefully) is about to start. May have to take some time off myself just to focus on the business. The Pyt is way to much fun to stay away for long, though. The baboon shit can wear on one, but you guys 'n gals are a blast.

Fuck me sideways.

Great find, Dick!
I spotted it on Ally Fogg's twitter feed.
I noticed the slimy turd retweeted that. We all knew Hensley was incompetent already, but then again it's clear the blind man has some bias and had he not been blind, he most likely would have been a member of the fainting couch brigade. It seems CFI may have screwed the pooch when it came to disabled at the conference, though, which he used to his advantage when he criticised Lindsay for criticising Watson. He also seems to use the "disability" card to get some sympathy, because I'm pretty sure there were little short of 300 people attending the conference and the "invisibility" cannot possibly be blamed on just one person.

Ah well.
