Those cunts really are a step up even from the other femtheists.
Obama was apparently trying to be good, in praising Harris in ways relevant to her performance as an attorney general, but IMO he was indeed tone deaf, in commenting on her looks and also in that awkwardly self-aware opening "you have to be careful to, first of all, say she is...". Looks aren't a criterion for the job, "best looking" is in the eye of the beholder, and - most of all - looks are a basis on which men only rarely get (explicitly, publicly) judged compared with how often it happens for women.

On the other hand, they're friends, and that may give him a comfort in commenting on personal characteristics and/or joshing with her that slipped out in what he said publicly about her and came across wrong. I find it hard to imagine him commenting on the looks of a woman with whom he had a purely professional relationship.
It was politically silly.
It was bound to get picked up, and like you said, it is hard to imagine him saying the same to someone he had just a professional relationship with, although I can imagine him saying the same thing to a male friend in a jokey kind of way.
No, it wasn't politically silly, it was quite astute.

What's being paid attention too? Commenting on some woman or this: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/05/us/so ... ml?hp&_r=2&

First paragraph
WASHINGTON — President Obama next week will take the political risk of formally proposing cuts to Social Security and Medicare in his annual budget in an effort to demonstrate his willingness to compromise with Republicans and revive prospects for a long-term deficit-reduction deal, administration officials say.


Always read the paper on a Friday, that's when the news comes out.

Richard Carrier is Richard Carrier's greatest fan. When he contributed a chapter to a book, he called it a "tour de force"*. He makes Muhammad Ali look like a modest guy.

* Twice, in fact:
Two of The Christian Delusion's fifteen chapters are mine. The first is Why the Resurrection Is Unbelievable, which is the most definitive refutation of warranted belief in the resurrection I have ever composed. It's a deliberate tour de force, such that I doubt I'll ever have to write another. It even takes down recent attempts to use Bayes' Theorem to argue for the resurrection, and it contextualizes everything so there just isn't any rational basis left for claiming the resurrection is historically proven.

The second is Christianity Was Not Responsible for Modern Science, which is another tour de force, conclusively taking down once and for all the claim that Christianity gave us modern science.

I think he is the only person in the history of the planet to describe his own work as a "deliberate tour de force".
Like he actually sat down and decided to write a fucking tour de force. Cock.

Her blog is pure comedy gold as well. I was transfixed for a few hours reading all the comments from her sycophants. The best bits were guest appearances by Oolon (he wrote such a grovelling post he was completely ignored as too sickly even for them) and Adam Lee (who was told to get lost and not come back until he had read Feminism 101)
Ugh, I can just imagine Oolon sucking up to the bitter harridans on Shakesville. This is the guy who accuses us of attacking "straw-feminists" yet is somehow fine with the utter nasty shite that passes for equality over at that joke of a cesspit.

Asked Richard Carrier to take the A+Dillahunty challenge. He politely declined, citing the usual time constraints.
I get the strong impression he is so badly informed he is simply incompetent. Yet he will not allow for the concept he is so badly informed so until he does some basic research on A+ and the source and nature of the 'haters' he will continue to make silly speeches and comments.

A guy named John Ash made a great FB post on one of Carrier's calls for up votes.


The problem, as I see it, is that a subset of the atheist community who are hypersensitive to so-called “microaggression” have played the victim in discussion scenarios they helped to create (classic examples of Karpmann drama triangle), and then used the drama as fodder for generating blog hits. This has snowballed into a fairly massive campaign to “moderate” forums to create “safe spaces” (which in theory, should be blocking trolls and harassers, but in practice is actually banning people for expressing disagreement with ideological orthodoxy; see CuriousGate for more info), which has led to purges of crypto-sexists and fifth-column bigots from the ranks of the secular community. I’ve been involved in many threads where I disagreed with the prevailing opinion, which of course caused all sorts of hyperbolic hyperventilating and hysterical histrionics, conduct which, by any reasonable standard, was no less and probably much more inflammatory than my own commentary; yet I ended up being the one who was blocked/banned. It’s a double standard.

No reasonable person agrees with the trolls, but unless we’re willing to empower a body to adjudicate claims of “harassment”, it’s better to simply require users to manage their own blocking/banning/ignoring of childish comments (that’s all they are, really; a rape/death threat on the internet is meaningless) rather than empower inquisitors to moderate every forum and police every post.

Erin Pizzey(1), A Voice for Men Editor-at-Large and Domestic Abuse policy advisor, is scheduled for an Ask Me Anything on Reddit(2) on Sunday the 14th of April. Pizzey is not too fond of feminism and apparently never considered herself a feminist(3).

If you have any questions this should give you some time to formulate them.

1). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erin_Pizzey
is a English family care activist and a best-selling novelist. She became internationally famous for having started one of the first[2] women's refuges (called women's shelters in the U.S.) in the modern world, Chiswick Women's Aid, in 1971,[3] the organisation known today as Refuge.[1] Pizzey has been the subject of death threats and boycotts because of her statement that most domestic violence is reciprocal, and that women are equally as capable of violence as men.[citation needed]
2). http://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/

3). http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/artic ... amily.html
Thirty years later, when feminism exploded onto the scene, I was often mistaken for a supporter of the movement. But I have never been a feminist, because, having experienced my mother's violence, I always knew that women can be as vicious and irresponsible as men.

It's been funny to watch all these rabidly pro-choice "fuck the pope" atheist feminists (Marcotte, Watson, Greta Christina, etc.) eulogize Roger Ebert in various ways when he wrote this about a month ago:
Roger Ebert wrote:I support freedom of choice. My choice is to not support abortion, except in cases of a clear-cut choice between the lives of the mother and child. A child conceived through incest or rape is innocent and deserves the right to be born.

I consider myself Catholic, lock, stock and barrel, with this technical loophole: I cannot believe in God. I refuse to call myself a atheist however, because that indicates too great a certainty about the unknowable.

It's "gendered" in the sense that Ana Mardoll's "lived experience" compelled her to say so on Twitter. Of course, Lsuoma did also provide this citation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiddingstone

The irony about the "chide" thing is that it's only "gendered" if you accept the notion that women are biologically predisposed to complain - which is a totally non-sexist assumption for a feminist to make, of course.

Well, all people need to do is yelp "gendered!" or "sexist/misogynist/etc" to give them an excuse to dismiss someone's statements. Personally I've always related chide to an adult scolding a child.. AGEISM!

No, see, it's totes a baseless stereotype - the people who describe women as "chiding" are misogynists, and almost without exception these women are really just expressing a legitimate opinion - cf. filthy motherfucking mansplainers.

Heh - you said "tone deaf." But I agree. It was a strange thing for him to say - wonder what Michelle had to say about it.

I did not find it strange in the least. I was listening to NPR yesterday and some dumb cunt from Salon.com was going on and on about the very sexist culture in the US, and how Obama "knows better". For fuck's sake

fuck, Michelle referred to some top White House official as "handsome".

Here is the quote:
"She is brilliant and she is dedicated and she is tough, and she is exactly what you'd want in anybody who is administering the law, and making sure that everybody is getting a fair shake,

she also happens to be by far the best-looking attorney general in the country - Kamala Harris is here," Obama had said amidst applause. "It's true. Come on,"

She's the ONLY Attorney General in the country. Absolutely nothing wrong with that comment at all. Bloody puritan fucks.

No, no. Keep going. I'm curious to see how long it will be before this funny little fellow realises that begging for upvotes will not result in more upvotes but lots more downvotes. As his entire speach showed he lives in some kind of fantasy world, the answer is probably forever.

Interesting that Thunderf00t and Integralmath didn't need to beg for YT upvotes with their response videos. Could it be they are more in line with the actual thinking of the atheist community (if such there is - I think Integralmath is right about there not really being one) than the power-grabbing chancers of FTBollocks et al?

I believe he said something like what about the poor octopus.

there has been quite a few references to sex and Cephalopods on his blog. Certainly not a one off.

enthusiastic consent every time.
He has gloves that have a picture of his face on them so that he's giving himself a blowjob when he spanks it. Because no one can love carrier better than carrier. His idea of porn is a naked picture of himself.

Sacha, Kamala Harris is the CA Attorney General - Eric Holder is still US Attorney General - or am I behind the times?

(Eric Holder is a hunk IMO)

I believe he said something like what about the poor octopus.

there has been quite a few references to sex and Cephalopods on his blog. Certainly not a one off.

yep. there's one U.S. Attorney General, but one for each state. Some are elected by popular or legislative vote, others are appointed.

Do you think we're in the Lounge? Fuck off.

By the way, and this is for you Mr. Tony Parsehole, Carrier did not just write a "definitive refutation" but "the most definitive refutation." There. That's even better than an ordinary definitive refutation. Carrier is the bestest refuter of all time. He says so himself, so it must be true.

We are going to have to realize sooner or later that this was a hijacking that some otherwise rational thinkers seemed to develop a moral high ground mentality. Not that it justifies the censoring and attacks but Richard Carrier will have a harder time adopting reason and evidence if we keep berating him. He did more for the argument for reason than most. Think about it this way, we were infiltrated by a group used strategical finesse like the Bush administration did. We now have slightly stronger immune system for when the Islamist fundies try and take over with their slightly less radical tactics.

I like to openly ridicule these conference policies, express skepticism concerning them, and put arguments forth against the nonsense that is going on in the atheist/skeptic communities and at conferences. Interacting with the conference hashtag and attendees is a great opportunity for that. I find this mode of skepticism to be effective and worth my time. The hypocrisy, too, is just glorious. It's not all about being funny, but some laughs may come in the process. Engagement with the #ftbullies, as you knwo, often yields some unintentional glorious results. Either way, I love the debate.
"Debate"? "Effective"? This must be some new use of these words that I haven't encountered before.

Oh dear lord, Dick Carrier's speaking requirements: http://www.richardcarrier.info/speaking.html

What the fuck is up with people not knowing what words mean? For example:
For any speaking engagement I require expenses, a $250 honorarium, and an opportunity to sell my books at your event. But the only expenses you have to cover are transportation and lodging.
The only expenses you have to cover are a transportation and lodging...and a $250 honorarium. THAT WOULD ALSO BE AN EXPENSE YOU SCHMUCK!

The first post or two were great. They illustrated the points really well, namely that overly detailed policies are dumb, and there's almost no chance they'll fully enforce the full letter of their policies, which then leads to even LONGER policies which are even less possible to enforce...

But at this point, it's just beating a dead horse, and now you're giving them a lot of good material to prove that you're kind of an attention-seeking dip. Shakespeare had a great point: "Brevity is the soul of wit". Get in, make your point, preferably right through their stupidity, get out, and move the fuck on. Don't linger overlong.

It's obvious from the revalations made by Strawkins, that he put into a nice graphic in post 15006, that PZ2013 would consider it obvious that PZ2006 is a slympitter. He should therefore shun himself, or at least his coblogger CC should ban him for his past crime.

Wooly Bumblebee chides MRM for not addressing political divide within. Expresses opinion of libertarianism similar to that seen at FtB, but does so in full sentences, presenting her argument, without calling anyone a fucktard.

It's at WB's blog, titled "Why the Men's Rights Movement will fail" - will be interesting to see what response she gets. (I'm on phone, hard to post the link)

What's that, FfTB? "Argument from authority" is a cardinal sin of rational argument, you say? A person is only as reliable as their current argument, which should be treated as coming from a naif, and all of its aspects examined and EVIDENCED, or else *FLOOSH*?

Why, we agree on one thing, at least.

Here's just a few words from Dr Dick Handbag, Ph.D. as he sets out an anti-biblical argument:
I am a published author with considerable qualifications in the study of ancient history and languages (see inset), which should give my findings some weight of authority.
Whoops.

Irony really doesnt come any harder than this!

'when we do it, we are socially punishing people. But when people downvote us, its haters and harassment.'
:dance: What an absolute clown.
Downvoting: "I think we should all be doing that, more actively..."
Done. I used the Intergralmath video as an intro, then picked up in the original where he left off. I only lasted about ten more minutes and then bailed in disgust. I redeemed myself by reading a couple pages of comments. Lots of entertainment in there! :lol:
