The Refuge of the Toads

#46141

Just watched 'Beck' a Scandinavian crime drama on the BBC and it's a total SJW-Fest.

Only 2 episodes in - all the victims are women, all the perps are men and we've had one predatory rape-strangers-for-kicks gang, one Rohypnol-using groom and stalk internet pedo, one gymnastics coach molesting his charges, one schoolboy gang who post naked pictures of girls on the Internet and call them whores and so forth by text message and they even manage to fit in a discussion about the suicide statistics in their country for young women (not young men of course). They haven't got round to video games yet but I've got high hopes of episode 3 !

Springsteen is not the official ambassador of NJ. He just happens to live here.

Born, raised and still currently live here... I hate Brucey too. I hear from people who supposedly met him that he's a really nice guy. Just can't stand his music.

If I lived in NJ I would want Springsteen to be the official ambassador. Down to earth, working man rock star who is even willing to sing a punk song every now and then.

Don't know if anybody has mentioned on here already, but a new survey by Demos (a think tank) reveals just how rampant Islamophobia is in the UK. Problem is, their definition of Islamophobia seems to include critiquing Islam.

Predictably the BBC have been fawning over the "findings" and falling over themselves to repeat the narrative of the report. Also predictably, a few right wing dicks get on Twitter and start firing back abuse at the BBC, Muslims, the authors of the report, and so, again, predictably, they cite these tweets as PROOF of the credibility of the report.

Godless Spellchecker runs a critical eye over things.

I would mostly agree with this but there have been times in our history when this wasn't the case.

I've had the honor of meeting some of those people.

The thing is I have never seen the cops act anywhere near as bad as they were in Birmingham in 63. Cops shouldn't always be considered the good guys but they should also never be assumed to be the bad guys.

Police officers are simply people who do a job which society needs: an organized monopoly of force which makes people obey the laws of their country.

The alternative is either vigilante justice, which is far more disorganized and likely to lead to abuse and to spiral out of control, or leaving people to fend for themselves, which isn't so great for those who cannot defend themselves, and leads to the rule of the stronger over the weaker.

Like all people who have jobs with some kind of power, some of them do a good job, some of them do a bad job, some a decent enough one, and some abuse of their power. Also their job is to make people obey the law. Some laws can be stupid or irrational, but that's not for them to decide, not more than for anyone else anyway.

It's good to keep an eye on possible cases of bad policing, abuses and corruption and police shouldn't be shielded from rational criticism and from fact-based reporting. Public oversight is a potential check to abuses of power in general.

On the other hand assuming that "police is always on the wrong side" like PZ does isn't a rational criticism or fact-based journalism, it's an ideological position.

It's rather easy to see why PZ has to assume that law enforcement is always in the wrong. He's been trying to use his blog as radfem alternative justice system, and he's following an ideology which tells him that everyone who's not with him is an evil rape apologist rapist-wannabe misogynistic scum. He needs to cater to an audience of people who think that the right thing to do is never call the police but expose "problematic people" on the Internet. He wants to appeal to slacktivists who dream of a violent SocJus revolution while they live on government checks.

The funny thing is that more often than not police officers come from families which are much less privileged than those who accuse them of oppressing unprivileged folk. SJWs are often middle to upper middle class college students, and it's actually pretty irritating to see them dismiss the entire police force as "terrible" when they wouldn't last a second in a really police-less work.

After WWII, we said "never again." No more holocaust, no more genocides. Bosnia, Rawanda, Darfur and Cambodia all speak to the lack of resolve to actually stop them from happening. There are always very good reasons not to interfere and not to get involved, and I don't pretend to have a very good idea of what is the best long-term solution.

VickyCaramel wrote:The interesting thing for me about the real conspiracies is that many of the normal skeptical objections actually fail. It is often said, 'the government can't keep anything secret, this information would get out'. The reality is that often the 'truth' is common knowledge, an open secret, but nobody is listening to what they have to say. To give #Gamergate as an example many people will be familiar with, there were tens of thousands of people on twitter, Youtube, Facebook, Twitch, etc, who knew they were pissed off about ethics in gaming journalism, and yet the whole MSM throughout the western world was reporting that is was about misogyny and online harassment.
I wouldn't call the whole of#GamerGate a "conspiracy theory", though. There have been many conspiracy theorists and loonies inside #GameGate (like the countless conspiracy about Anita Sarkeesian), but the whole thing boiled down to "there is some cronyism between game sites, professional reviewers and some game producers, and some of this cronyism is due to ideology". Hardly a "conspiracy" to uncover. As you say this is an open secret, common knowledge, and pretty plausible considering human psychology and the nature of media.

The reasons why most of the media reported it was all about misogyny is because a) the media have a pro-media bias, and #GamerGate was a criticism of media b)media people are lazy and follow the dominant narrative c) old, inaccurate media stereotypes (like the idea that "gamers" are angry virgin white males) have been successfully exploited by the SJWs and d)few people in the media really care that much about video games.

Sorry, it wasn't supposed to be an example of a conspiracy, but an example of how the full spectrum of the media from CNN to bloggers can be reporting something which is the complete opposite of reality. True this is a unique case because of the media bias for the media, but another example would be vaping. There is a load of scientific research which is saying they are harmful, but it is all advocacy research or just really bad research. The good science has yet to find anything wrong with them, in terms of health risk or sociological effect. In the UK we have it good and the medical establishment and thus the government are in favour of them, yet every time some bullshit study comes out along with a press release, the newspapers are all over it. Of course, this is also less about a conspiracy (although there is one of sorts) and more about the media preferring bad news over good news... the point is that if you give the media what they want, they can be exploited. And in this case, good science gets buried and quackery gets publicized.

Yesterday, i read a thread with about 300 comments where a "skeptic" was arguing with two conspiracy nuts. Unfortunately just about everything the skeptic argued was bullshit. He had obviously done his research, he was quoting names and dates, and yet all of it was wrong. Obviously when you get loonies on both sides who are emotionally invested, the whole subject becomes a farce and people just walk away... as i did.
Now I'm curious. What was the thread about, and why was the "skeptic" wrong?

It was concerning bigfoot, which is my favorite spectator sport. It's good hunting, especially those creationists who believe they are the nephilim.

Essentially, this guy said that it was a new phenomenon dating back only 70 years. (Despite the fact it was first written about as a phenomenon in the 1840s), he said that Sasquatch was a made up name and denied that it came from Canadian-Indian language, and denied that any native people's believed in the creature. He also gave us a potted history on how easy it was to find the gorilla and the panda.

More importantly he claimed that all the footprints were faked by Ray Wallace, and that Roger Patterson borrowed Wallace's 'stompers'. He then went on to make a load of claims about Patterson being a con man who was filming a documentary he couldn't afford to finish, so obviously he conspired to fake the deep footprints which by his calculation would mean that bigfoot was heavier than a horse (?). And that the originals of the film had been conveniently lost to disguise the fact that it is a man in a suit. He said that Hollywood has been making better suits since the 1930s, despite the costume designers on all the Planet of the Apes movies, saying they could not make a suit like that now, let alone in the 1960s.

So Wallace claimed that he faked the footprints. And various people have claimed they were in the suit or made the suit.
The problem with this is that Wallace's fakes are obvious fakes that fooled nobody. In order to explain how he made some the tracks he claimed he made, he has said that he was running while being towed behind a truck. No doubt he faked a lot of tracks and other people probably did too, but this explanation explains very few of the tracks and he isn't very credible. Nor do Wallace's fakes match the prints produced by Patterson, fake or not.
Likewise, people who claim they were in the suit or made the suit are not credible either for various reasons. They are less credible than Paterson, and certainly less credible than Bob Gimlin. And their stories fall apart on the slightest scrutiny..... obviously they can't all be telling the truth because if it was faked, it was only faked once. As far as I am aware there is no known link between Wallace and Patterson, and I am fairly certain the Patterson-Gimlin film was never lost and has since been remastered.

There is a double standard. They say Patterson is a 'conman' because he once wrote a bad cheque, but the town drunk is to believed when he says he hoaxed it, even though he can't tell the same story twice.

Recently I have been out in the woods looking for the same evidence of bigfoot that some Americans find, and I am finding it here 20mins from London. I am able to find quite logical and natural explanations for things like tree-bows and witches knots without a need for a bigfoot. But the arguments against bigfoot are often far more idiotic that the arguments for it.

One of the most hilarious things about conspiracy loons is, that they see a conspiracy on just about any street corner, yet completely fail to detect real conspiracies. I don't think there's anything on Wikileaks they actually predicted.
Yeah real conspiracies tend to be boring and are kinda uninteresting.

True, but interesting to some of us, especially those of us who were shouting "bullshit" at the television when we were being told Iraq could launch a nuclear strike in 45 mins.

The true ones tend to involve starting wars and are really no surprise, even if we do have to wait decades for governments to put their hands up to it.

Why is this boy in Syria any fucking more important?

I mean if we are playing World Good Cop and ignoring the lives the current US Government is ruining in our armed forces, colleges, and with its "zero tolerance" policies for minor crimes.

We've got problems here. Short of defending our allies and fighting ISIL directly and indirectly I have absolutely no more patience for calls for more international interventions. Esp when they are SOOOOOOOOOOO hypocritical and just happen to align (as always) with either Neocon foreign policy or SJW moral postering.

You do understand that if we were to go into Syria we would in fact be fighting ISIL directly?

Oh that is amazing. The poor sap's eyes leading me into a gateway to infinite sadness.

12/10, would slit wrists to this.

All men should be forced to watch this for ten minutes while someone reads an Elyse post before they are allowed to get married.

And probably Russia.
Syria is a 'no go' zone for the US, in part because NO ONE THERE IS A GOOD GUY(seriously, LOOK IT UP. Tell me who the GOOD PRO US NON FUNDAMENTALIST MUSLIM ALLIES are), and I'm not interested in World War 3.

And here I thought Trump was supposed to be the dangerous one.

So what is your level of too much? Not being rhetorical. I am honestly interest of how much shit has to happen before you are willing to intervene?

For me it's now. It's been enough. Oh and yes I know it's a shit show and there are no good guys there. I understand how hard this is, I don't believe that can be used as excuse anymore.

Some pages back there was a mention of someone called Izzy Galvez as an Abuse moderator at Amazon, or something. Well, it's true, but he's beta as fuck. Typical beta neckbeard virgin dude who's white knighting for feminists and who will NEVER get laid.

So long as Syria remains a total shitshow here is the VERY MOST action I could contemplate:
A. We don't fuck with Assad. Russia has a legitimate interest in that area.
B. We don't support or arm ANYONE. Esp not 'insurgents'.
C. We can bomb ISIL directly or we can let Russia do it. Believe it or not, they were fighting ISIL too. Some of our fucking "allies' have turned out to be ISIL or otherwise extreme anti-US muslim groups. This is fucking obscene.
D. We go in there and establish a military perimeter and a fleet to EVACUATE as many CIVILIANS (not involved in the war, mostly old men, young boys, women, girls) as possible. We let everyone know we are going to do this and then we do it, and then we LEAVE.
Problem is then we have to resettle them somewhere, and I'd rather it not be HERE , since even noncombatants in that area tend to be fundamentalist Muslim.

So when do we get around to solving Nigeria? All this shit about "Black Lives Matter" but to you and most of our left-wingers, apparently not if they are in Africa.

So when do we invade North Korea? They only have a few nukes. And they've held whole families in what are basically death camps for 40 or 50 in some cases. I actually consider a nuclear armed nutty North Korean leader to be the single greatest danger to the US or its allies , but we've let them fester because it would cost us something to either fight them or we'd have to kowtow a bit from our stupid pride to make a deal with China to reign them in.

And what about our own country? You know Hillary's election means more continuation of Obama's Unconstitutional Drone Hit Lists. Probably more hijinks in the use and abuse of the IRS against her political enemies. Continued feminist control of education policies and more attacks on the rights of armed service members to fair trials. More open borders. More trade pacts that don't take AMerican workers into account. Possible war with Russia as there's never been a single Neocon foreign policy proscription she seems to have ever opposed. It's sickening how we are perfectly fine with sacrificing our own citizens and giving up the rights that the past two administrations have grabbed from us permanently. I also worry about the Second and First Amendments with Hillary able to pick at least one Scotus Justice. While I think she will be a bit tougher on out and out violence from BLM and affiliated then Obama , she will still mostly seek to mollify at the expense of white people and law & order.

Anyway, apparently you have time to worry about SOME people in the rest of the world - in what seems to be a very hypocritical way - but no time to worry about your own country at all.
