If anything I would be surprised if a MRA did not know this. It has certainly been talked about over and over.

This is why I was not in the least surprised to hear that that Sally Strange was in an abusive relationship nor if it was revealed that it was mutual.

These people seem to have no trouble finding each other.

On topic of Atheism+ and triggering about stupid shit, someone should show them this book: How to Read Donald Duck. Then they will never be able to watch Duck Tales again.

Then we play the Duck Tales theme song, which is earworm of highest order, and they will be trapped into a constant state of nausea and despair, like Alex from Clockwork Orange after listening to Beethoven.

The mass suicide to follow would end Atheism Plus once and for all, making the world a saner place. All thanks to a couple of Chilean nutjobs and some pantless ducks. Score!

In conjunction, sure, but Dawkins is already the horseman of white supremacy/privilege and just being old isn't a sin (a bad one, anyway) since that would be ageism.

Dennett vigorously defended Chagnon against the charges laid against him by Tierney in Darkness in El Dorado. That makes him the dastardly defender of deepest darkness in the eyes of the Pomo wing of Cultural Anthropology.

Seriously I'm not making any of this up.

Maybe reframe the riders as Death, War, Famine and Pestilence (and Kaos, for the initiated).

White just goes too well with the whole White Privilege / Supremacy thing. Then again War would suit Hitchens (well, better than Red) and Death kinda suits Harris since he advocates for the death of each and every muslim world wide, by nuclear first strike if necessary... but you gotta help me out with Famine and Pestilence :/

I agree - all the JV posts defending his friend are just noise.

And stating he has the "power" to call them and bring them - but he won't, does not win any prizes either.

It is overblown by OB and PZ - but if KP didn't toss the match on the gas, it wouldn't of gone anywhere.

On the topic of WBC in general, they came to protest a funeral outside of the Air Force Base here in town a few years ago and we got a bunch of photos from our unfortunate vantage point across a busy street. The best of these are posted here.

If you can see the photo set (I'm unused to sharing links from G+) have a look at the last one. That's the money shot, because it shows exactly the reaction the WBC are going for. They were mocking soldiers and desecrating flags and thereby managed to get that young veteran so riled up that he was about to to over there and tear shit up. In the photo, the Midwest City PD were doing an excellent job of talking that kid down. I like to think they were reminding him that he swore an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution, which has been interpreted to protect even flag desecration as symbolic core political speech.

Methinks we are about to enter another round of "we must have purpose!" I'm going to do a Jamy, fuck off and stop trying to move our tent, it has been annunciated many many times before that no matter what we say or do (outside of capitulation to their ideology) we will be vilified. As far as i'm aware we don't have a higher purpose, and any mission statement is limited to calling out and taking the piss out of bullshit. Does that mean the pyt cannot or will not evolve into something more meaningful, of course not, but until the time that the host, informs me that calling you cunt, for no other reason, than i want to see how your face contorts is unacceptable.... I 'll say fuck off you cunt and leave our tent alone.

JV is a self promoter, no doubt, and he gets called on it, he's a big enough boy to deal with it without asking Karla for a sympathy fuck. As for Karla, i'm surprised she hasn't told all you dick wringers to stiffen up.
If we all started to agree with each other this place would get boring very fast.

On the other hand it might be a fat Elvis kind of middle age.
Ack!! :lol:

Just to be clear, while I made my post somewhat in jest, there is a modicum of truth behind my observation and I actually consider this a good thing - to a point. In my short time as a member here, the old debate of style and intent has come up at least twice with pretty much the same result, but there has been a noticeable effect in that the number of 'offend just to offend' posts have all but disappeared. Those that still do get posted are usually from some new arrival just passing through the forum and not the regular commentators. There has been an active and noticeable effort to keep the anti-(insert favorite subject here) posts limited to those that are more likely to fit within the accepted definitions of satire, etc. I consider this commendable and more effective for the stated purposes of the Pyt as the Pyt's activities become far more defensible, should that even be a concern. In the long run, I posit this will serve to make the Pyt more acceptable to a larger audience and the message, such as it is, will also find a wider and more accepting audience. There is a balance to be stuck and, in my opinion, the Pyt is presently maintaining something very close to that balance at the moment.

The 'to a point' bit comes into play when we start to get too sensitive about whom we might be offending. There are no clear, definitive 'this line and no farther' rules or reference points here, unfortunately, just something to be generally aware of. One of my earlier predictions was that FtB would gradually become an extension of the Atheism+ forum rather than the other way around and it is hilarious watching that play out as the ultra-PC crowd gradually gains control of PZ's forum. Just be careful the same dynamic doesn't creep in here.

Other than that, carry on! :mrgreen:

I know, right. The pile-on is growing even now. If he dares answer back again he'll be banned, no question. Especially when Ceepolk the giant ban-hammer notices.

I actually, theoretically, have the time to do that right now. I've considered it but there are a couple of things that have, thus far, restrained me:

1. I'm not entirely convinced that half the people on the Slymepit aren't doing it already.
2. I'm a reasonably creative person but I'm not at all confident that I could come up with anything crazier than is considered perfectly normal over there anyway.

On the other hand, we've seen that when the feminists sic people on others, they ARE trying to be harmful. Like when PZ and StephInfection tried to turn Abbie's school and job against her by contacting them and trying to get her fired and expelled. Or like when Laden threatened Justin Griffith in a for-real sounding way.
Well there you have it, apparently you get it. I find the exaggerated reactions and amount of attention given to this is unwarranted and buying into drama and sensationalism. These were my comments and mine alone, not to be associated with any other individual or 'side', and should not be interpreted in any other way.

There were no motives - it was sarcasm directed at the person in the Twitter exchange, that's it. To clarify, I had absolutely no intention or desire of 'hurting' anyone, no one at all, and have not seen any evidence whatsoever that I have. I hope the WISC2 conference is very successful and of great value to the attendees. However, individuals will think what they may, as always. I understand that and acknowledge everyone's right to their opinion.

I'm sure there are many voyeurs enjoying all the posts about it here. Who really created all the drama? Me, or the person who decided to create a dramatic blog post about it well after it was a non-event and the army of adoring paranoid singular-thinking sheeple who lap up every drop of drivel and provide positive reinforcement through their stadium mentality? People claim to be so fearfully concerned I called attention to something 5 months ago when it was an absolute non-event - but now have invested countless hours promoting it, likely driving the WBC Google Alerts into overtime. They do not appear to be concerned about their inciting behavior hashing it up anew days before the event. They do not appear to be concerned that this excessive amount of promotion will call in the evil protesters. It simply appears to make for good drama during a slow news night to get everyone, including many people here, riled.

Some will consider it the way I meant it, as you and perhaps others appear to. Others are disappointed and here and elsewhere have provided a wide variety of thoughts and reaction, new names for me and both constructive and non-constructive criticism. I take that criticism into consideration. In the blogosphere there have been some underhanded calls to call this situation to the attention of my professional network via LinkedIn. Through my premium account, I know who views my profile, and see there has been an unusually large spike in profile views. Apparently this would be an effort to intimidate me or extract some sort of pay-back. I will not be intimidated by this.

Some public reaction has judged me harshly and I am quite aware of it. However, trying to 'guess' or create motives will get no one anywhere - there were none, and therefore allowing and feeding conspiracy theories to thrive will be fruitless. I have spent time on my own blog and other places talking about this manufactured drama, and now I'm done with this at the end of this post. I hope everyone else can be done with it too, stops feeding the fictitious beast, and goes back to slaying real dragons.

P.S. So that anyone who happens upon this post doesn't spend even more time wasted on this topic, please note these are my final comments on this matter and I won't be responding to other posts about it. There really is nothing left to be said.

It was a joint effort. Don't let them take all the glory!

I doubt that anyone here thinks you sicc-ed a pack of dangerous nutcases on the WISC2.
I'm only disappointed that you've naively handed Ophelia another piece of professional victim fodder.
You and the boy wonder have been teasing her for months, to what end I don't know, but the effect is that she's now desperate to throw everything up against the wall and wail at what sticks. Ophelia used to write books about skepticism and religion. Now she wails victimhood and harrassment on the internet and she needs to constantly feed this narrative with fresh meat, which you've kindly provided.
You were teasing the clowns at WBC and didn't expect them to turn up?
Let me give you some free media advice Karla - you should have made it clearer - especially when the story broke. And Vacula only made things worse with his silly post about being friends with the WBC.
So the FTB crowd are now targeting you in real life?
It comes as no surprise to us here - there are some really fucked up individuals over there who have zero sense of proportion. They will read this situation as you sending a hate group to the WISC2 - which equates to potential violent attacks on their team. And if you are violently attacking them then it is appropriate to target you in a proportional manner - most likely through fucking up your work environment, stupid petitions etc (you will be aware of how they targeted Vacula.)
Luckily they are pretty inept at these things so it will most likely blow over in a few days when a fresh witch is brought before Goody Benson.

As an example, the book considers the lack of descendants of the characters. Everybody has an uncle or nephew, everybody is a cousin of someone, but nobody has fathers or sons. The only mother shown on a regular basis is Beagle Boys's mother, who lives outside the law and who almost never shows affection to her offspring. This non-parental reality creates horizontal levels in society, where there is no hierarchic order, except the one given by the amount of money and wealth possessed by each, and where there is almost no solidarity among those of the same level, creating a situation where the only thing left is crude competition.

OMG, that's exactly what I discussed in my pseudobiological dissertation! If I had known of this previous work back then, I could have done the cultural-imperialism angle in addition to the genetics...

As an example, the book considers the lack of descendants of the characters. Everybody has an uncle or nephew, everybody is a cousin of someone, but nobody has fathers or sons. The only mother shown on a regular basis is Beagle Boys's mother, who lives outside the law and who almost never shows affection to her offspring. This non-parental reality creates horizontal levels in society, where there is no hierarchic order, except the one given by the amount of money and wealth possessed by each, and where there is almost no solidarity among those of the same level, creating a situation where the only thing left is crude competition.

OMG, that's exactly what I discussed in my pseudobiological dissertation! If I had known of this previous work back then, I could have done the cultural-imperialism angle in addition to the genetics...
And none of them wear pants.

My grand plan requires an expansion of my fish colony to include multiple genetic strains, so we’re going to be scrubbing tanks, sterilizing surfaces, setting up new tanks with boring feeder fish to get the nitrogen cycle going and condition the water, getting the brine shrimp hatchery (live fish food!) thriving, all that sort of stuff that qualifies you to be a clerk in a pet store.

3. Once all the tanks are bubbling away happily, we’re getting some new strains from the zebrafish stock center. Then it’s a few months of nursing them along, collecting eggs, propagating new generations and raising them to adulthood to get the whole colony self-sustaining, and to prepare for crosses to produce hybrid strains. After all this, my student will be well-trained to be a hobbyist aquarist.

4. Concurrently, we’ll be doing some real science on the embryos we get, analyzing their behavior quantitatively to identify consistent differences between strains, and also in response to different environmental stresses.

There's been a spike in profile views for the simple reason that Hyperdeath put the link to it on the Pharyngula thread to encourage people to target her in real life.

Karla... Shirley Phelps-Roper... Ophelia.

I really can't get myself worked up about Sylvia brown lying to her mom, because I think being enslaved and raped is kinda worse, skeptics
I'm sorry, enslaved and raped for TEN YEARS. What Sylvia Brown did was disposable but that's really what you choose to be most offended by?
I'm going back into my cave of I Hate Everyone, Especially Skeptics. Goodbye
Hmm-- Getting mad at skeptics for focusing on a trivial event when Big Shit is going down? Hmmm...
Dear Amanda Berry

Stop whining, will you. Yes, yes, I know you were kidnapped, and … yawn … dont tell me yet again, I know you were chained in a basement, and you were enslaved and raped for 10 years, and you had a baby by yourself in your imprisonment by your rapist all by yourself. But stop whining, will you. Think of the suffering your poor Skeptic sisters have to put up with.

Only this week I heard of one, she calls herself 'psychic', and do you know what she did? She told your mom you were dead. I am not exaggerating. She really did. She said you were dead on a TV show. Of course your mom believed her, and of course the psychic had no clue, but even so …

And you, Amanda, think you have something to complain about! For goodness sake grow up, or at least grow a thicker skin.

Expanding on that, my "nom de internet" is a contraction of Gro Espeseth fan. Gro is a (now retired) Norwegian soccer player. She was the most dominant defender I ever saw play the game, male or female, in nearly 40 years of watching. At eighteen she battled the fearsome and much bigger Michelle Akers in a the first Women's World Cup final.
At twenty two, in place of the suspended Heidi Stoere, she captained Norway to the World Cup title in the greatest single game display I've ever seen from a player at her position.
She once missed a friend's wedding because she had to train. Not play, train.
Her last competitive game saw her playing with a broken hand. During the game she collided with her own goalkeeper and busted open her own head.
Taken to the sidelines with blood streaming down her face, she refused to be taken out of the game, yelling at her coach; "I have a duty to my team-mates. Pain is not an issue". She was bandaged up on the sidelines and went back on to complete the game. She received ten stitches only after the final whistle.
I got to see her play live once. She spent the usual 90 minutes giving and expecting no quarter and then went over to a bunch of fans who were waving Norwegian flags and smiled and chatted, shook hands, signed autographs, and posed for pictures.
In case you haven't guessed, Gro's a hero of mine.

Gro Espeseth is a warrior, not the clowns engaging in endless collective pants-shitting on the baboon boards.

The SJWs can act how they want - I just will not be browbeaten into respecting overgrown children and I'll stick to associating with women I respect.

It was a joint effort. Don't let them take all the glory!

I doubt that anyone here thinks you sicc-ed a pack of dangerous nutcases on the WISC2.
I'm only disappointed that you've naively handed Ophelia another piece of professional victim fodder.
You and the boy wonder have been teasing her for months, to what end I don't know, but the effect is that she's now desperate to throw everything up against the wall and wail at what sticks. Ophelia used to write books about skepticism and religion. Now she wails victimhood and harrassment on the internet and she needs to constantly feed this narrative with fresh meat, which you've kindly provided.
You were teasing the clowns at WBC and didn't expect them to turn up?
Let me give you some free media advice Karla - you should have made it clearer - especially when the story broke. And Vacula only made things worse with his silly post about being friends with the WBC.
So the FTB crowd are now targeting you in real life?
It comes as no surprise to us here - there are some really fucked up individuals over there who have zero sense of proportion. They will read this situation as you sending a hate group to the WISC2 - which equates to potential violent attacks on their team. And if you are violently attacking them then it is appropriate to target you in a proportional manner - most likely through fucking up your work environment, stupid petitions etc (you will be aware of how they targeted Vacula.)
Luckily they are pretty inept at these things so it will most likely blow over in a few days when a fresh witch is brought before Goody Benson.
It is surely time to stop worrying about Ophelia's dementia inspired ravings. Playing the strategy game means getting mired in Peeze and co's playground politics. They will always find some other excuse not to engage you and any sensible person is going to ask what harm Karla actually did. Brush of the inconsequential and focus on the lunacy of their core arguments. Don't let the loons get you walking on eggshells.
All that said, horseface barbs are intended to wound. That's not about appearance, that's about being nasty.

I must admit to bemusement at the rush to judge Karla based on assumptions. On it's face, that tweet can be read as much as a dig at Phelps as shit-stirring. Something along the lines of saying "Will we see you at synangogue this Saturday?" to Adolf.

Greta,

I cannot reply on your blog, but for what it's worth, I don't want to be in unity with atheists who accuse skeptic leaders of covering up sex crimes, based entirely on unsubstantiated rumours, and then refuse to retract or apologise. Good day!

Ophelia is often described as a great writer - by her fans. I've never seen it myself. Even when I was a regular reader there I don't recall ever seeing something that made me think "I wish I wrote that", or that seemed a brilliant piece of thinking.
She has a piece today that just seems like bad writing.
And that is being charitable - otherwise how would you describe this piece. She can't mean that men in general want to do this but that isn't at all clear from the piece.

I think it should be noted that the tweet in question happened in January, and Karla didn't join the pit until February. Now that she's joined and been enveloped in all the puppies and hugs and smiles and "fuck offs" here, I'm sure she wouldn't make such a tweet again.

REASONS! Just shut up and accept it!
AtheismTV has a lot of patience, I would have taken my videos and gone away a long time ago. At least they have the guts to defend themselves, instead of rolling over and showing their belly like many others have done before.

My favorite part of the thread has to be this one:
SubMor wrote:
AtheismTV wrote: The fact is I took every single step I COULD to make my videos accessible. <Edit: which, by the way, many of them DO have a transcription>
Congratulations on refuting your own claim. "I took every single step" but only "many" have transcripts? No, you didn't take every single step you could; you took every single step that you felt was convenient, and your responses here suggest that wasn't very many steps at all. But I am glad that you're working on getting transcripts
In a blatant but not surprising show of dishonesty, SubMor initially takes away the "I could" part of the quote. It makes perfect sense that "many" videos have transcripts because A.Tv couldn't transcribe all of them, hence the "every single step I could". And then SubMor tries to say that ATv was able to take other steps but chose not to, because it wasn't convenient.

And all that because this guy/girl wanted to be helpful and share a fucking video with people they thought would appreciate it.
I'm thinking that all the A+ members live inside a mental hospital or some sort of compound, because there is no fucking way people like this can function in the real world.
