Quoting from Zvan's post plugging the Slymepit:
There are a number of problems with that statement, of course. First of all, we don’t know enough about Shakespeare to know that he was white. It’s probably, but not anything like a given in Elizabethan England.
Not only do we not know that Shakespeare is white, we don't even know that he was a man! Who is to say that he didn't identify as a womyn, or a trans-otherkin pixie ala "The Tempest". Or as one of our Slymepit sleuths recently pointed out he may have actually been his sister Joan.
Maybe Dawkins isn't a white supremacist after all!

More words of wisdom from that first rate and superexcellent professional writer, Stefunny InZvanity:
No one quotes Shakespeare’s poetry.

It took me a while to realize that Dawkins, and his friend, James Randi, are slymepitters. In that, they fully support they goals, and every act of harassment and misogyny, of the slime. The evidence is overwhelming, though I tried to deny it for years, especially for Randi, who I genuinely used to admire. I’m grateful that I learned of his true lack of integrity while he’s still alive. That’s the only “good†the slime has ever done. That and keeping me from wasting my time and money on other atheist organizations they’ve similarly helped expose.
And a hearty fuck off to you too Randi!

Actually, she's kind of comically inept at writing in general. When she was still at TFB, her posts were often the longest ever seen there, very often extending beyond 5000 words with something that could quite easily be said in 500-1000 words at the most.
I got into a tangle with her when I first pointed out some instances of how she could easily shorten her prose making it both more readable and more understandable. Like most tran-people, or so it would seem, she flew off into a raging rage and declared me anti-trans, a hater, and a misogynist who could probably be applied to by her favorite, non-hateful, non-exclusionary, non-biased phrase,
Die Cis Scum. A phrase that, by the way, she vociferously defends as not hateful, not biased, not hostile, but only as accurately reflecting the supposed reality that all Cis people want all trans-people to cease to exist.
HAHAHA! Now that I have let loose my inner Natalie Screed, and written far too many words, I will cease and disist.

An obviously biased article (it's a TERF website), but there's enough real background stuff included to indicate that a lot of it is true
- some of what Natalie Reed has been doing since she left FTB.
https://gendertrender.wordpress.com/tag/natalie-reed/
https://gendertrender.files.wordpress.c ... =480&h=235
Apparently she was involved in a protest against a feminist remembrance service for the women killed by mass murderer Marc Lépine at L’Ecole Polytechnique because there wasn't enough trans involvement.
She has also been involved in some interesting pushing of the boundaries of surgical know-how!
She was attempting to have a particular form of gender reassignment surgery done - just not the usual male to female alteration.
She wanted to have a sexually functional vagina (in terms of sexual pleasure rather than producing a baby!) which would have a clitoris, but she wanted to keep her penis.
https://gendertrender.files.wordpress.c ... =480&h=255
In other words she wanted an operation to create the appearance of a physical hemaphrodyte.
I'm not sure if this is possible - I think the nerves that serve the penis in males are the same that serve the clitoris in females - which is why a clitoris in M2F cases is usually constructed out of the same nerves from the surgically altered penis.
Fair enough, if it's possible and her health service provides for it then go for it.
It's her body and she can do what she likes with it.
But there does seem to be a pattern emerging of transwomen with penises who are furious that they are not being accepted as women - and often as queer women, and the non-acceptance is most often coming from the lesbian community. This group of trans activists seem to be the most vocal of their community and are creating the image in most people's heads of trans women in general being like this extreme group.

I love the "authority" bit. Like what can he really do. Say something stern to you in an english accent seems to be the limit of his power.
Dawkins is, basically, retired - he's 73 after all. His 'authority' stems solely from having spent decades writing books which a lot of people choose to read and giving talks which a lot of people choose to listen to. Natalie Reed is free to do likewise - if she can.

What a monster!
Shermer, not Dawkins.

Imagine that - call someone a white supremacist and they go ahead and block you on twitter!
At long last, have you left no sense of decency? :cry:
I note that Zvan never mentioned Natalie Reed's calling Dawkins a white supremacist. Why am I not surprised.

What did she fucking expect? They're losing their fucking minds because he has the temerity to politely defend himself from the extreme hyperbole they fling at him.
How dare he not beg their forgiveness.

Why only three? With our technology we should be able put a variety of works on a DVD that can be put on a spaceship. (Which is what his original tweet was about.) Heck, even the Voyager ships were able to put more information on their discs than what Dawkins is mussing about.
Yeah, but DVDs are capable of carrying a great deal more info than the equivalent of 140 ASCII characters, dummy.

It took me a while to realize that Dawkins, and his friend, James Randi, are slymepitters. In that, they fully support they goals, and every act of harassment and misogyny, of the slime. The evidence is overwhelming, though I tried to deny it for years, especially for Randi, who I genuinely used to admire. I’m grateful that I learned of his true lack of integrity while he’s still alive. That’s the only “good†the slime has ever done. That and keeping me from wasting my time and money on other atheist organizations they’ve similarly helped expose.
And a hearty fuck off to you too Randi!
(to the tune of "there's another santa claus" by Bob Rivers)
"there's another slymepitter
there's another slymepitter
there's another slymepitter there!
Everywhere you look
you'll see another slymepitter
slymepitters everywhere
cunts are bleeding
virgins pleading
hate on twitter all night
hide under yo' bed
cover up yo' head
slymepitters are out tonight!
there's another slymepitter
there's another slymepitter
there's another slymepitter there!
Dawkins, randi,
sure are handy
make slymepitters look all right
Drinking coffee
eating toffee
shopping stef eatin' shite.
Oh the pain
the mental drain
from slymepitters every night"

Well I'm pretty sure that that's a lie because someone with Carrie Poppy-like credentials told me that Shermer was off with Lawrence Krauss and Chris Hitchens having a circle jerk while the Dawkins attempted harassing was allegedly going on. :drool:
