Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
Well, I would advise you to take this with a grain of salt simply by virtue of my being wrong in my expectation before. For example:Apples wrote:Interesting - so what do you see as the order of events/causation (assuming that things continue to unfold as they are)?AndrewV69 wrote:I expect it will happen in around 80 years though if things continue to unfold they way they have been so far.
- No outright revolt in Spain apart from periodic demonstrations over their family law reform act in 2004 which has to day seen approximately 130,000 men imprisoned for at least 24 hours per year and is still ongoing. So that amounts to over a million men imprisoned so far just on the say so of a woman to date in Spain.
- No further significant ideologically motivated massacres in the Western countries after the 9/11 in the USA and the 7/7 incident in the UK. The Anders Breviek business in Norway, was not only a surprise, but small in scale relative as to what I am expecting to eventually happen despite the efforts of the DHS to prevent it.
So, while I do expect that eventually women will become disenfranchised in Western countries, it looks as if the current situation will have to deteriorate far more than it has now before that will happen.
In short, it looks as if nothing less than a financial crisis worse than what Greece is currently experiencing will do it. Hopefully I am wrong about all of this but I am not optimistic. People were started sounding the alarms about things like derivatives from as far back as the mid 80's.
One thing I do surmise though, some of our systems are far more resilient than you might think at first. We will see. And like I have said before. I really hope I am wrong.

She would have got a totally different reception if they had known who she was but many did not. Identity politics at it's finest. It's not what you say but who you are that matters.

Too late, Janine. Pharyngula's culpability in this can't be denied. You'd probably call it harassment if it hadn't been you and your buddies doing it. :lol:
Or did I get it wrong?
In any event while I do see to recall her being mocked from time to time, I certainly can not recall any SP here attacking her with the unabashed vitriol, not to mention the enthusiastic viciousness unleashed on her by the baboons.
I do not think EBW was unreasonable in having an expectation that the baboons should at a minimum, been charitable in disagreeing with her. It had to have been a disorienting experience.
I fully expect some blogs pointing the finger at us.

So the scenario you're talking about is political/economic collapse and/or a revolution by men and chill girls, and in the post-upheaval societies women will return to traditional roles?

Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
Slymepit is a propaganda meme nothing more and nothing less. A key part of any propaganda campaign is finding a common enemy, which can be manufactured out of whole cloth if need be. Instead of asking the disquieting questions of your own group/tribe/country it's easier to simply claim it was the fault of your enemy. "The Hun" "The Commies" "Iraq has WMDs".Jack wrote:She would have got a totally different reception if they had known who she was but many did not. Identity politics at it's finest.

I am not on a side. I post at the 'pit because Lsuoma allows just about any riff raff to post.
So I speak for myself and only myself. I have repeatedly said that I will not support bullying no matter the source and

Will anyone else stand with me and denounce this bullying and support EBW?
Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
Can't tell if you're being serious, or somewhat ironic and just talking about the Pharyngula massacre.Dilurk wrote:Will anyone else stand with me and denounce this bullying and support EBW?
Assuming you're serious (forgive me if you're not): Which "bullying" are we supposed to denounce? The reason she got attention from the 'Pit in the first place is that she went on a month-or-so long Twitter campaign smearing this place. She was the one who originally Tweeted that we were racists because I had ironically used the term "darkies" to describe the noblesse oblige approach to race relations implied in Jen McWrong's post.
Anyway, I haven't noticed anyone focusing negative attention on her since the "don't be fooled by his game when he rapes your daughter" Twitter-scuffle eventuated in John Brown's youtube apology.
I give her tons of credit for what she said in the exchange with Janphar posted above, "I am guilty. So no, I can't fault them for that." I think her Pharyngula experience genuinely opened her eyes to what we were talking about.

Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
Certainly she was bullied. They do that all the time of course. What did surprise me and was quite an eye opener is how little she and I assume others know about the sort of blogs and comments we are targets of too. Any one of us would have told her what the reaction would be, it was a given.Dilurk wrote:Slymepit is a propaganda meme nothing more and nothing less.

I am not 'anti-feminist' I am anti that sort of ideology that poisons and damages everything it touches, including her. So one of the great irony's is what we are trying to achieve supports her in this by default. Not that I expect her or anyone to care about that.

Apologies for the lack of freezepages - would have exceeded my daily quota with the links in this one post.
In United States law, public figure is a term applied in the context of defamation actions (libel and slander) as well as invasion of privacy. A public figure (such as a politician, celebrity, or business leader) cannot base a sample on incorrect harmful statements unless there is proof that the writer or publisher acted with actual malice (knowledge of falsity or reckless disregard for the truth).[1] The burden of proof in defamation actions is higher in the case of a public figure.
The controlling precedent in the United States was set in 1964 by the United States Supreme Court in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan. It is considered a key decision in supporting the First Amendment and freedom of the press.
A fairly high threshold of public activity is necessary to elevate people to public figure status. Typically, they must either be:
a public figure, either a public official or any other person pervasively involved in public affairs, or
a limited purpose public figure, meaning those who have "thrust themselves to the forefront of particular public controversies in order to influence the resolution of the issues involved." A "particularized determination" is required to decide whether a person is a limited purpose public figure, which can be variously interpreted.
According to attorney Aaron Larson:[2]A person can become an "involuntary public figure" as the result of publicity, even though that person did not want or invite the public attention. For example, people accused of high profile crimes may be unable to pursue actions for defamation even after their innocence is established...
A person can also become a "limited public figure" by engaging in actions which generate publicity within a narrow area of interest. For example, [jokes about]... Terry Rakolta [an activist who spearheaded a boycott of the show Married With Children] were fair comments... within the confines of her public conduct [and] protected by Ms. Rakolta's status as a "limited public figure".

Re: Re:

That is true, they can and that's fine. However they then reserve the right to say what they like as if they were shouting it out on a street corner or in other people's houses (such as twitter and conferences) They don't get to do that.

"If I Admit That ‘Hating Women’ Is a Thing, Will You Stop Turning It Into a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy?"

Enjoy.

FFS. Why doesn't she just ask someone what kind of birds they are? Great-tailed Grackles, btw - Boat-tailed Grackles are more common along the Gulf Coast. That's the thing about birds ... there are different species in different environments. The same appears to be true for plants and for other animals, oddly enough. I can't imagine how that happens. :roll:Birds!
My god the bird life here. I don’t know what the birds are – they’re not the birds you see in Seattle, so I don’t know. There’s a ubiquitous one that’s black with a long tail and a very loud voice. After I crossed the Congress Avenue bridge and Cesar Chavez Street I approached a cluster of oak trees on the corner and my god the din – it was an absolutely defeaning racket of those black birds, whatever they are, shouting. You never hear bird noise like that in Seattle – let alone in downtown Seattle! It was very impressive and foreign and cool.

Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
Really, sometimes it just gets too funny and too silly. InSvanity posts a wee post linking to a faux aplogy, clearly intended as satire, regarding a woman writing an article for a gaming site. So far as I can tell, Stefunny does not understand that it is satire (quelle surprise), and, so far as I can tell, intends to sort of mock / dismiss them. Mind you, it really is hard to tell what her point is because she doesn't in fact make a point. Well, of course, that could be intentional. That way, whatever side the majority of her readers fall she can pretend that was her intent (http://freethoughtblogs.com/almostdiamo ... /#comments).
She says:
She says:
Aaaaaanyway, the first comment asks her:Really, this is how you do it:
(Steffy's quote from article here)
Well, it’s how you do it when you don’t mean a word of it, anyway.
And that's it. That's the entirety of his comment. And so, her response:What would you consider an appropriate apology, for a given offense?
Head-desk, ya know? I mean, well, I don't know what I mean ... that's all just too fucking ludicrous.Claus, I’m approving this so people can see the kind of question people think it’s appropriate to ask me and expect me to answer. Just off the top of my head, I see that your comment (1) has nothing to do with the post linked; (2) comes from someone who doesn’t value my opinion and is, thus, asking for some other reason he did not see fit to share; (3) indicates that I’m expected to stop what I’m doing and provide you information about the inside of my head for no benefit to me; and (4) is meaningless. What is “a given offense†that I could possibly come up with any sort of reasonable answer? Don’t answer that question, by the way, Claus. I didn’t ask it for your benefit.
Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
I would say in fact that usually political instability follows financial inequality and/or instability. As long as things are going well economically I believe it is reasonable to expect a fairly peaceful transition from one form to another.Apples wrote:So the scenario you're talking about is political/economic collapse and/or a revolution by men and chill girls, and in the post-upheaval societies women will return to traditional roles? Do you think there's any way this could be achieved peacefully, or without revolution?AndrewV69 wrote:So, while I do expect that eventually women will become disenfranchised in Western countries, it looks as if the current situation will have to deteriorate far more than it has now before that will happen.
Unfortunately, I do not see peaceful times ahead. What we are looking at is a financial system with a gigantic "mountain of debt" (google that phrase) that is unsustainable.
So one can only hope it would be done "peacefully". We are talking about western cultures here where "traditional" roles(1) have had different meaning in other cultures and even within similar "Western" cultures you can point to differences in outcomes(2) depending on locality.
What I see will be more of a two-tier split between those who have assets and those who do not. I expect the middle class for example to shrink considerably and concurrent with a loss of upward social mobility, a decline in influence as to how societal benefits are allocated. Note that I do not expect that they will be silenced so much as ignored by the people who do have influence. In any event, people who are struggling to acquire adequate food and shelter on a daily basis, do not seem to have too much energy left over to worry too much about other things, much less the power to affect it if they did.
I do not see the various elite classes worrying too much about the fate of the lower orders any more than they have traditionally done in the past, except where there is a clear indication that it might have a negative impact on their continued well being(3). Even then I expect the initial and continued response will be the utilization of violence till it becomes not only ineffective but a detriment. Note that I am not expecting exactly the same scenario but similar patterns and cycles we have seen in the past to reoccur.
In any event, whatever laws there are on the books will be ignored in light of the actual reality that most people will experience except where someone with the right influence can utilize it.
1). We are probably on the same page about "traditional roles" but I wanted to make a point that the only thing really traditional is that to date only women can and do give birth to children. Arguably all society have been organized around this fact and most of the more successful societal organizations were centered upon assigning specific roles divided by sex with notable exceptions to the generally most "popular" one such as the Muso of China(a), the Nayar of India(b) and the Spartans of Ancient Greece(c).
a). The Muso of China http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosuo
b). The Nayar of India http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nair
c). Spartan women in Ancient Greece http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_ancient_Sparta
2). For example, in Canada the Quebec Feminists insisted that women did not not need men, and this was reflected in how common law arrangements were treated in regards to property acquited during such a relationship, and how entitlements were assigned after a breakup. Despite a recent high profile case to claim the same rights as awarded to those who did get married, nothing has changed in that respect.
The BC government by contrast, unilaterally and retroactively and recently decreed that anyone who has lived common law for two years as of March 18, 2013 was now and in the future considered an unmarried spouse and entitled to the same benefits as those who had legally tied the knot. Specifically:
http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/03/17 ... d-couples/
3). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janissary# ... isbandmentbreakups between any couple that has shared the same roof for more than two years — or has had a child together — will now carry many of the trappings of divorce, including a 50/50 division of assets and debts.
As Janissaries became aware of their own importance they began to desire a better life. By the early 17th century Janissaries had such prestige and influence that they dominated the government. They could mutiny and dictate policy and hinder efforts to modernize the army structure. They could change Sultans as they wished through palace coups. They made themselves landholders and tradesmen. They would also limit the enlistment to the sons of former Janissaries who did not have to go through the original training period in the acemi oÄŸlan, as well as avoiding the physical selection, thereby reducing their military value. When Janissaries could practically extort money from the Sultan and business and family life replaced martial fervour, their effectiveness as combat troops decreased. The northern borders of the Ottoman Empire slowly began to shrink southwards after the second Battle of Vienna in 1683.
Re: Jim the Pleb Made Me Do It
It would seem that she is at least open to some form of self-awareness. I highly encourage this, as it's the kind of thing I should be encouraging.Apples wrote:Can't tell if you're being serious, or somewhat ironic and just talking about the Pharyngula massacre.Dilurk wrote:Will anyone else stand with me and denounce this bullying and support EBW?
Assuming you're serious (forgive me if you're not): Which "bullying" are we supposed to denounce? The reason she got attention from the 'Pit in the first place is that she went on a month-or-so long Twitter campaign smearing this place. She was the one who originally Tweeted that we were racists because I had ironically used the term "darkies" to describe the noblesse oblige approach to race relations implied in Jen McWrong's post.
Anyway, I haven't noticed anyone focusing negative attention on her since the "don't be fooled by his game when he rapes your daughter" Twitter-scuffle eventuated in John Brown's youtube apology.
I give her tons of credit for what she said in the exchange with Janphar posted above, "I am guilty. So no, I can't fault them for that." I think her Pharyngula experience genuinely opened her eyes to what we were talking about.

Miles surveyed 671 student affairs professionals, primarily in the South and Midwest. About 230 respondents were black, and 415 were white.
Snippets from the responses of white men suggested many of them feel unfairly judged and at times professionally limited because of their race and gender.
“I feel that being a white male often makes me a target within the higher ed community,†one respondent said, adding that he’s been “accused†of being racist and insensitive. Another said he believed a minority colleague resented him for getting a position they both applied for, chalking it up to “white privilege.â€
“White men dominate the field,†one man said. “I fully support affirmative action, but I also recognize that, at times, it makes advancement for white men more difficult.â€
Another: “I don’t generally have to think about my race when I do my work. I also don’t think that people think, ‘Oh, he’s white,’ when they work with me, but often consider the race of the person if they are not white.â€

I actually feel Aratina was being genuine. For him emotions are everything and by his own admission he is not a skeptic. I feel he is a good person wrapped up in a story woven by the more devious elements in all this. People that use other people's genuine emotions to achieve their own idealogical ends. People like McEwan have turned this into a fine art.

pointless anecdote: In college I was an arts student, literature and music. I noticed that my two professors whom were gay males were actually quite good at dealing with all kinds of students from all kinds of backgrounds, the straight males were good teachers, but constantly had to be "on guard" so as not to offend anyone, and several of the females and minority professors were already wrapped up in opening everyone's eyes to other perspectives.....as long as it wasn't the perspective of a white male.
It wasn't all that bad to be honest, but one exchange I had really opened my eyes. In my music class, there were only 10 students, and none of us were prodigies, mostly just untutored kids from high school bands. We all had to work hard as hell. I was the only one who was also paying rent and working full time. The 50-something hispanic man who was a returning student, and the women all got as much face time and extra help as they needed, or it least it seemed so, going by what I saw and heard from other students.
At one point, I was completely swamped with school and work, and started to fall behind. I had all of one ten-minute talk with the female associate professor. I asked for any advice she could give, all I got was "work harder". I didn't even ask for any outside of class time. I asked if she could maybe just inquire about my homework status once in a while, to keep me on schedule. She told me point blank "I'm not your mom. You just need to shape up", yet she continued to pretty much shower half the class with all the extra time and attention they needed.
I don't really object to what she said, but the double standard was fucking appalling. And this was 20 years ago in Bakersfiled, not exactly a hot bed of progressivism. For all my "privilege", all it got me was all the responsibility of a full adult, and not an ounce of the compassion that they liked to talk about and shower on anyone not white and male.
Just my 2 cents.
