I could be overestimating my ability to present a coherent argument.
But I know he is aware of the studies and information I cited, because Karen Straughan mentions them in her videos. And says to disregard them because they are part of the feminist propaganda and conspiracy to hide “the truth”.
After perusing her videos and writing (not recommended), I can anticipate what he will reply to and what he will say, almost to the word. And I know what he will ignore, because Karen Straughan hasn’t released a video about it yet. He is completely enthralled by her, that much is obvious.
I provided one cite. Sure, it was to The Economist and not to an academic journal but I doubt he has access to the latter. And he can hardly claim The Economist is a feminist publication.
Camille, your argument was completely coherent. I’ve learned a lot from your posts. But I agree with tomdebb that responding to him at this point simply implies that he’s got an argument to debate when he clearly barely understands what he himself is saying.
Look, I don’t give a shit what your other hobbies are. Haikus, great. Haikus and blaming women for your failures, and whining on the internet that people don’t like you. Wonderful, great, whatever. Go away already.
You, and people like you, are pathetic. You blame women for your failures because you don’t have the strength of character to look inward. Maybe your mother did the best she could with you and you turned out like this anyway, and none of it is her fault, the poor woman: You’re still a failure. Complaining how people are mean to you won’t fix you. Maybe nothing will fix you. No one cares. Shut the fuck up about it.
And hey, when you post your response to this post be sure to tell everyone how wonderful and great and respected you are in the real world, because you’re not totally transparent you sad sack of shit.
Again with the conflation of an ideology with a gender. It’s not the only dishonesty intimately associated with feminism, but it may be the most common. There’s evidence for the haikus, and I suppose it’s a matter of taste to call my posts ‘whining’ and yours a measured, witty…no, yours, is definitely whining…but what failures I’ve had in life are my own. I do blame the men and women who attack others for the attacks they make, though, rather than blame the victims. Do you only blame victims if they have penises? What that does have to with equality, whiner?
Well I’ve not felt the need to make a Pit thread about an internet stranger I’m convinced is so wrong and pathetic that their opinions shouldn’t matter (or at best only convince other pathetic people, who don’t matter). So have a look inside yourself, and ask why it seems to matter so much?
I am not wonderful,nor great, though my work has been appreciated, and outside this self-regarding group of internet ideologues, I’ve garnered some respect. That you feel the need to pretend to know me, just to insult me for not having fallen for the same stupid stories that form your quasi-political position, is true transparency.
“The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who speak it.” [George Orwell]
I quoted your post, and another article from a link in your cite. He’ll probably ignore it, or turn it into an example of how evil feminist mothers kill their own children. He’s refusing to believe quotes from his own cites now, so maybe he’s running out of steam.
“You have to quit confusing a madness with a mission.” [ Flannery O’Connor]
How wonderful for you that everyone but you is a stupid idealogue. What are the odds of that happening? Hurry up and quote George Orwell at them!
And speaking of ideologies, wanting equality for women is the most pernicious ideology of all. George would totally be on board with you throwing his quotes around. I mean, keeping a class of people down is totally what ol’ Georgie was all about!
Hey, you mentioned how respected you were, but you forgot to mention your bachelors degree (!), so go back and do it again! Throw all that shit in your next post so people won’t mistake you for a pathetic loser, the way they would if your words were all they had to go with. As the writing advice says, “tell, don’t show.”
Economist, huh? Does that not require critical thinking abilities? Or, indeed, any sort of thinking at all?
Not everyone is an ideologue, and not all ideologues are stupid - but most of the interaction I’ve been offered in ‘that’ thread has been pretty dumb. Your post here is pretty dumb too - and not just for that fatuous attempt to suggest I’ve said that ‘everyone but me’ is a stupid ideologue.
There’s also the question of ‘wanting equality for women’. I want equality regardless of gender, which is why I’m not a feminist. Equality for half the equation redefines equality so much as to make it meaningless. It’s something stupid ideologues do, and it attracts even more stupid people like you.
And there’s more: Who wants to keep a class of people down? ‘Feminist’ is not a class of people, it’s an ideology - but stupid people like you so often confuse the two. Furthermore, feminism is demonstrably not the only way to seek equality (not least when so many feminists so actively oppose equality ‘for’ the other half of the equation). If I wanted to keep a class of people down I’d be a racist, and I’d say so, just as I court your abuse by being honest about my actual position: an egalitarian afeminist. (For a definition of egalitarianism, check a dictionary, I think they’re available online).
The only people who’ve ‘mistaken’ me for a pathetic loser are those who seek to protect their ideology by promoting the idea that only neck-bearded virgin losers disagree with them. I don’t know how you’d define ‘loser’, but making posts as full of stupid as yours, just to insult a random stranger on the intertubes (and then getting your arse handed to you), that has to count, surely?
So much stupid in your post…“Hey, you mentioned how respected you were, but you forgot to mention your bachelors degree (!)”. I must have mentioned it somewhere, numbnuts, so what’s your point? That I don’t sign in as ‘Jack of Words BsC (hons)’?? And what’s the ‘(!)’ for? They give first degrees away like confetti these days, I wouldn’t be surprised if you had one. Oh, is that it? You don’t have one? Well, qualifications aren’t everything. Maybe you could get a degree in stupid, you’re showing a lot of promise.
The writing advice, by the way, is ‘Show, don’t tell’ (good of you to close with some prize stupid, thanks for that). But you can’t show the blind much, and you can’t apparently even tell the stupid.
Thanks for playing, feel free to post more stupidity, I’m enjoying this
You want to doxx me, you can put in the leg work yourself.
I think of what I’m doing here much as I frame my interactions with mormons and jehovah’s witnesses. If I can keep you busy, you’re not out there poisoning some impressionable young mind like Evil Economist.
Let me turn it back on you. Other than the standard feminist tactic of hurling stock ‘neck-beard!’ ‘fedora-wearer!’ and other unimaginative insults at anyone who dares think for themselves, what have you got here? Only someone as demonstrably stupid as E.E. could believe that I was stupid, though you might be able to find a couple of slapdash moments in amongst my posts in ‘that’ thread (some ‘snark’ too, to match - and better - that thrown at me). But ‘you occasionally careless accomplished snarkist’ isn’t much of an insult, is it?
Worth noting, by the way, how much the adherents of your cultish movement bang on about ‘harassment’ yet spend so much of their time futilely harassing total strangers on the internet. Or, as you would put it, insulting a ‘loser’. Fight the power, eh :rolleyes:
If you really must have an answer to your question, it’s: outside feminist circles. There is life outside your echo chamber, much of it populated with strong, successful women who want no part of the infantilisation and permanent victimhood that feminism offers them.
Yeah, you’re clearly not stupid. I mean, you tell people you’re smart, and no stupid person would ever think of doing that. Some people just say smart things, but that’s not for you–you care about efficiency!
And you have a bachelor’s degree. Gosh.
Tell me more about how successful and respected and intelligent and tall and good looking you are. I want to be even more impressed by you, because I believe every word you say.
I don’t recall (and barely distinguish), was that you I was taunting with the presumption that you would greet anything I said with “liar!” earlier?
I am tall, as it happens, with a passing resemblance to George Clooney (if only I had his money…).
For the record, I’m only here tonight because I don’t have to turn up to the second round of auditions for a project I’m keenly interested in. I only turned up for the first round for the look of the thing, since they’re keenly interested in me too. That’s for a female producer and a female director, both of whom respect me - neither of whom are feminists, because they’re getting on with being successful women and don’t need an ideology that provides excuses for failure.
As a feminist I have a pretty well-developed sense of empathy, so I want you to know – I cringed so fucking hard upon reading this paragraph that I’m actually looking down my own spine right now.
Do yourself a favor and never revisit your posts to this message board after graduation.
Is this the first time some-one has hijacked another person’s pitting?
I know Pit threads can get heated, but I don’t recall someone do deliberately drawing the focus away from the original pittee. This is a whole new level of narcissism.
