Heintje and Real Horrorshow, I keep making the mistake of thinking that they, being feminists, should go after the real sexism left in the world (cough, cough, theocracies and attempts at theocracies, cough), instead of events that have no sexism in them. Alas, it's an unrealistic expectation.

Another good bit from TAM via http://www.skepticalabyss.com/?p=167
Jamy Ian Swiss:
“Atheism is skepticism directed at one particular claim”. Skepticism is now about what to think, but how to think. Not outcomes, just a method. There should be no litmus tests for particular ideas/views to get into the skeptical tent. It is the way of thinking that is important. I don’t have to agree with a skeptic’s conclusion, as long as they use the process to get there.

[snip for brevity]

“Skepticism is not atheism is not secular humanism.”

“If atheism comes from a scientific world view, atheism, skepticism, and secular humanism are overlapping magesteria, and have a lot of overlap on a Venn diagram, but not identical.”

Skepticsm is a “thinking took kit” that must be applied to all subjects and claims. Skeptics test claims when nobody else does.

If political ideology is not part of our movement, we can invite leftists, conservatives, libertarians, people of all political backgrounds.

Consumer protection is the most important work of the skeptic movement. The job isn’t done, it will never be done. Skeptics should unapologetically re-affirm this and not abandon it in favor of something “more important.”. This is a critique of “Skepticism 2.0″. I don’t know what Skepticism 2.0 is. “You welcome to come into the tent of the skeptics movement as another kind of activist, but do not come into my Skeptics tent and say you are moving it”.*
*My emphasis
I wonder if Surly Amy clapped at that point?

Why would anyone put a Venus symbol on their laptop anyway? I don't have a Mars symbol, or a French flag, or anything on mine. I must be very special.

For full disclosure, I had a nap this afternoon (sleep is becoming a rarity for me, for some reason). I'm listening to what I consider great music, and am already on my second glass of wine. Over-niceness and unintelligible speach should be expected from me...

Love it!

Reminds me of a juvenile joke from back when I was around ten: a boy walks in on his mum getting dressed after a bath, and points to her minge, and asks "Mum, what's that?"

His mum, embarrassed but quick-thinking says "Oh, daddy and I were out chopping wood and he missed with the axe and hit me there."

Quick as a flash the kid replies "Well, he's a great shot: he got you right in the cunt!"

By the way - I'm seeing Heather Henderson (of Ardent Atheists) stand up to the nonsense and use the #FTBullies hashtag. Our numbers ('us' being vocal opponents of FTBad) have grown considerably in the last month or so.

The FTBullies are using the #FTBullies as well.

The clue is in the message as to who they are.

Also, I follow Penn, and I haven't seen that from him. Though I did see Rhys post a link to someone with that same screenshot.

He also called Penn an "arse" for posting it. I don't think he's being skeptical.

Watson really should be more careful in her phrasing. Surly Amy paid women to attend TAM?

No she helped to raise money to enable them to attend. I know Twattle is limited to 140 characters (one of the main reasons it's shit), but this could be mis-interpreted. Unless they're her hired bodyguard. Y'know to keep the rapists and sister-punishers at bay.

It is important for me to say that Nerd of Redhair, Sally Strange, Caine Fleur du Mal and a few others might be the Problem at the FC5 (6). They are the most virulent posters I've seen there. Others may apply, but these are 3 of the most prominent offenders.

PZ is NICE, by comparission. Make of that what you will.

CommanderTuvok (http://www.slymepit.com/phpbb/viewtopic ... =800#p1774), that screenshot is rather old, and it was never, to my knowledge, verified whether or not it was legitimate. There was a lot of discussion when it first appeared that it might very well have been fake.

I agree the bickering in the hashtag is childish - but I think the original hashtag (used by Rich Sanderson,Jeremy Stangroom and Paula Kirby) was just a way of linking certain tweets together - i.e. the proper use for hashtags.

The bickering does have a Bieber fans vs. 1D fans feel to it though... (I only know about that by sometimes clicking on trending topics, not knowing what they are - I promise)

Thats from long ago, when the baboons had a fight with Penn J, and its a fake ("as real as anything generated by the baboons" to be precise). You will have to go back to the old threads and read about it.. It was a lot of fun when it happened.. dont read anything sinister into it. At that time, the baboons used to paste some facebook snapshots and be immediately outraged.. and this snapshot (along with another obvious fake) was used to demonstrate how easy it is to fake things, and more importantly to trip up moral supremacist fools.

Git wrote:...appending "nazi" to something is a standard way of ascribing authoritarian motives to them. Just like calling someone "a little Hitler" or "[hypen]fuhrer" does not imply accusing them of crimes against humanity - it means they're an wannabe-authoritarian tosspot. This usage has been part of the Queen's English since...WW2. Screw Rush Limbaugh, he's hardly known over here at all. What he says is irrelevant, and its bloody annoying for people to claim that he sets the linguistic rules.
Thank you, Git. US-centrism/exceptionialism should be mocked at every available opportunity. It is the baboons' bible.
Nectar: "Ashley Miller admitted that she never reported the sexual part of whatever that guy did... She "thought" that others would report it magically for her.. Bitch should own her own inactions and not expect others to first read her mind, and then protect her from whatever she's fearing

Maybe it's time that feminists remembered that originally, "empowering ourselves" was part of it all. How about stop acting like babies and perpetual victims, and try out this adulthood gig. It's quite nice, you know.
As I have said again and again, it's the Gender Traitors who are the women with power, we are confident, fully capable of taking care of ourselves, we don't whine, don't expect others to hold our hands, or rescue us, we don't blame men, we don't cry wolf, we refuse any sort of affirmative action (see it as an insult), we are not weak, and we do not give the impression that we are, so we rarely experience anyone treating us as though we are anything but equal. We don't demand respect by shouting words, we earn respect with actions, and because of that, men respect us.
It's not even something we spend time thinking about, it's just a given. We are treated quite well.
In life, one gets what one expects

Tigzy: "In their efforts to show how Not Meek (tm) they are, I can't help but be reminded of those people who gather enormous quantities of friends and contacts on social networking sites in order to show how Not Unpopular they are."
precisely my point above. By demanding respect, and shouting about their equality... well, you know.

Did someone mention spanking?
Nectar (regarding angry sex): "I'm the opposite. If I'm angry at someone, or if I dislike them, I lose any potential horniness I might have otherwise felt towards them. Any physical attraction dissolves if the personality of the person is one I don't like."
I think everyone here knows my brain functions just a bit differently than most. I truly think angry sex is one of the best things for a relationship, certainly the best thing for an argument, and the sex is so intense when in an angry with each other, it's like fucking on some amazing drug.
Not many can do it. Most people have Nectar's perspective, but when in a relationship with a man who can, I am a very happy bitch.

by the way, I love this, MKG: "franc is not a monster — he is a mirror"
you can choose what you want as your award for that wisdom...

Just popping in to say I may be one of those lurkers. I often pop in to see how things are going and then spend three hours catching up with everything! But I don't always login - or can lsuoma see me as 'someone different'?

OK, I'm convinced about franc, it's weird to see him completely from The Other Side, but I have to say that you, franc, were one of the reasons I came over to ERV. I was utterly against you, totally convinced that you were evil and wanted to assault people and so on, and followed you here. I teetered on the brink of coming down on one side or the other, my brain being curdled by the shrieks of "He's going to do something awful" and finally began the long read to see what everyone was making a fuss about. I have to say, your posts were always so reasoned in response to some pretty awful stuff being thrown at you.

I always felt that Richard Dawkins was not so much wrong, simply doing something which was perhaps beneath him. Why was he particulalry irked by what one woman (who to many people is/was completely unknown) said? And now, one of the main outcomes is that we can now all google RW or Elevator guy and find comments on her. Even 'respectable' papers. I haven't found the Daily Mail stream of rubbish yet. Am I wrong in dismissing her as unknown, or is it because I now see her as a rather useless person that I have dismissed anything good she may have done in the past?

Right, now I'll have 60 more posts to read whilst composing this..............It's 12.15 and I really ought to go to bed.................

Lsuoma can tell us, but I'd wager it's the same troll we're toying with in other threads. It's a little slow, so be gentle with it. However, I wouldn't doubt that this will be quoted as an indication of how bad/offensive/sexist/etc this forum is, especially since we won't censor/delete the poor dear. They can't understand the concept of free speech, the same as they can't quite get the hang of free thought.

People who don't like this forum because they see us as a bunch of loudmouths sexists, try to provoke us by behaving like loudmouths sexists, and then go back to wherever they came from crying about our loudmouth sexism. All for the greater good, I'm sure.

Lsuoma can tell us, but I'd wager it's the same troll we're toying with in other threads. It's a little slow, so be gentle with it.

I really don't care about the BS we've seen this afternoon (PDT time, of course - I don't want to be accused of being a timezonist). As JAB says, it'll go away soon enough. I can check IPs trivially, but this loser isn't even on my radar right now: my arse needs scratching...

As Abbie says, no big whoop.

I can't wait to wzatch the video of that Elizabeth Cornwell presentation.

Sounds like quite a few of the Skepchick contingent would have been gritting their teeth. :P

Stefunny at her site
Update: According to one tweet, volunteers at TAM did receive training this year on how to handle harassment complaints. This isn’t something people should have to find through a tweet on the hashtag, but at least it’s something.
Thing is, Stefunny, that is simply DJ putting in some hard work and doing his job. He doesn;t advertise the fact that he's working hard and doing his job just to SATISFY YOU, Stefunny! If you look at the tweet, you'll notice Greg Laden chimes in with a bit of nonsensical snark. The fucking git.

Just want to add that I'm against checking his/her/its info in any identifying way. One of the reasons I won't post on FfTBs is that I don't trust them not to take any drama into meat space. Even if it was a blogger over there that I respect (hey, there could be one) I don't trust PZ not to be able to dig it up and maybe even share it with Laden. Let's not go there.

Whose talk are they referring to in the Randi comments?

I think we've gotten to the point where there's now more women on the anti-baboon side, so maybe PZ should take his own advice and listen to the women. He won't though, since all the women on this side have been brainwashed by the patriarchy and just don't know what's good for them. Don't you silly gals know that you need an anti-harassment policy to protect you and that you should feel threatened when someone asks you for coffee in an elevator and that being called a bitch or cunt should hurt you and also the rest of womankind? Where's that link to fem101 for re-edumacation?

What a shame.

Thanks, decius. I think I'm going to have to get a transcript later.

context for Dawkins's comment,
Of course context! It was also approaching (at the time of his comments, I think.) the campaign Day against Stoning Women to Death that Dawkins was involved in, and everyone was talking about What'son. How could Dawkins *not* be pissed off.

The useful idiots that follow the FfTB narrative don't get to see this though because it is ommited, as in that "unbiased, but FTB are right" timeline that someone linked to.
Yeah, I remember that - the campaign day was getting shit on in terms of blog coverage because all the little atheists were worked up about a fucking polite bloke in an elevator.

Maryam Namazie's talk on the subject of Islam at Dublin, by the way, is here:



AND THEY CARED ABOUT A FUCKING ELEVATOR. THAT WAS THE FUCKING TAKE AWAY FROM THE EVENT. FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS LIKE WOAH.

Apparently they're all talking about FTB at TAM:

What I'd give to be a fly on the wall! Also, sounds like Cornwell was going after FTB in her talk - I'm not sure whether she explicitly mentioned them, but you can tell that's what she must have had in mind.

You mean they were worked up about a woman giving some friendly advice...all the critics didn't have to talk about her, they could have chosen to talk about anything else...

Or does RebeCUNT TWATson have such magical powers that you slymepitters are rendered incapable of speaking when her name is mentioned? Did she put a gun to the internet's head and force it to talk of nothing else?

Fucking whiners. If you're really concerned about stuff like Namazie's cause (and who wouldn't be?) why don't you create a forum about THAT instead of this stupid place, dedicated to whining about how oppressed you all are?

Why are you bitching about PZ MYers being rude to you when Alex An is sitting an Indonesian prison? When Sanal Edamaruku'is being hunted for blasphemy? You're worried about the big issues? STOP WASTING YOUR TIME ACTING LIKE A PACK OF SNOTTY HIGH SCHOOLERS.

"Dear Alex An, I'm sorry you're suffering in prison but PZ MYERS DIDN"T ACKNOWLEDGE MY AWESOMENESS ON HIS BLOG!!!1!! so you'll understand that I have to focus my efforts on that instead..."

What a bunch of fucking hypocrites....

I note that the only instance of anyone here calling RW that is an FTBer. Speaks volumes.

I thought you disagreed with that interpretation of 'Dear Muslima'? That just because something worse is happening...
