Right Sektor...

Small movement turned marginal leader after the shit in the Ukraine kicked off. Just imagine they're bad, like the Soviets in an 80s movie. I think they're disbanded now though.

So your first example of an ideology is naturally Nazism. Makes sense. It's not like you couldn't pick another random example of an ideology.

You think women are being radicalized by their college professors? Are they building an army? Should I buy a gun? Or maybe my cawk would be a better weapon when they come for me. The feeling of a real penis in their vaginas instead of the usual double-ended dildo will likely pacify them into defecting. What will their uniforms look like, I wonder? Surely no skin will be showing. :olo:

Teaching people when things go wrong it's probably not their fault is toxic. Even worse is when portions of society becomes tolerant of this behavior and begin to nurture it.

Skimmed through this hot mess but I would like to say that I don't like feminism, socialism, entitlements or anything else that tries to "level the playing field".

Life is not supposed to be fair. There's this sick idea in the later generations' minds that every fucking thing needs to be equal for everyone. The very idea of equality goes completely against the progress of mankind. Technological milestones will not be reached, medicine will not get better, it will be a dead society. There will be no incentives to succeed. Where do you draw the line with equality? Do we all have to have the same job, same income, same uniform, same amount of food, on and on.....?

Life is meant to be competitive. Everything is, on all scales of existence. From the tiny imperfections of the early universe that led to the accretion of matter into stars, to the natural selection process of evolution. If the early universe were perfect and equal, nothing would exist. If all life forms were equal, there would be no evolution and we'd all be single-cell organisms.

This isn't black and white thinking—as though I'm suggesting proponents of equality are supportive of that extreme end—they just don't realize it's a fundamental fact of the universe. The more you try to equalize a system, the less it will evolve and become more complex.

Life isn't fair. I know that. Other people don't know that. It's not fair.

no one believes in the kind of equality you're trying to describe, or has ever believed in it. besides, embracing identity politics means embracing 'difference', which is unstable ground for any conception of equality

also, when you appeal to "fundamental facts of the universe" you're committing the naturalistic fallacy ('is implies ought') FYI. social, cultural and legal norms can't be meaningfully compared with physical laws

Sharon – “Ever since you joined this PC thing you just bully people and wait for people to say anything improper so that you can jump down their throats for whatever words he or she used.”
Randy – “He or she is an A-gender phobic micro-aggression, Sharon. You are a bigot.”
There's that deja vu again.

You haven't proven you're not a bigot. Looks like I win this round.

You know what the really bad and most damaging thing about the PC justice warriors, white privileged bullshit and their influence is ?. It discourages discussion, as evidenced by this entire thread, me talking about innocent people being branded a racist / bigot / rapist n all that. It's justification for dismissing a persons arguement out of hand so a person can hold their beliefs and live like its the life on the god bus.

I get why too, just try talking to a group of people about Muslims, or Jews, the conversational minefield you need to navigate to avoid saying anything offensive is fucking insane and I get why. I mean we're asking these groups to pretty much acknowledge that their followers aren't mass murderers but either side sticks to their convictions (all muslims are terrorists / all whites are racists) there will never be any middle ground.

Imagine a world where everything offensive was disallowed ?, everything would just be 'accepted', nothing would ever be contested.

This thread was the 1st time on q3w that I felt the need to thank someone for concluding a discussion

It's quite mad innit? On the gamergate side - collusion in the media being swept aside because 'sexism' and the sheer success of propoganda campaigns to hijack the narrative was so frighteningly effective, I simply feel that people should be made aware of the truth.

It's coming though, thanks to good folks willing the face the guaranteed backlash of nastiness in return. The radicals hold up their (supposed) threats, whilst their own band of brigaders does such wonderful things as trying to get thunderf00t fired from teaching and photoshopping him into porn. They are evil, irrational hypocrites and must be stamped the fuck out.
No, I meant I had no idea how nutty you were...

You're better off ignoring dumb0s. He's just desperately trying to fit in and likely didn't read/understand anything you posted.

You've shed a lot of tears in this thread Memphis (I mean Alfalfa :olo:)

I hope that women let you be, some time soon and that you can get over this terribly hurtful time.

Stay strong.
