Little language mistakes (like some of the uses of “female” described in this thread) bother me, but what bothers me a lot more is an insistence that somehow it’s wrong to talk about language. It’s totally fine to talk about language. It’s not the end of the world to make a little mistake… and it’s not the end of the world to talk about that, and talk about how language impacts broader society. It’s fine to talk about these kinds of things, and there’s nothing harmful about it. ---

It’s fine to talk about these kinds of things, and there’s nothing harmful about it. Oh sure, but there’s no real contradiction between the ability to have a good-faith conversation about the meaning and impact of certain language conventions and the ability to point out when a certain usage has a pretty clear meaning among a certain breed of bottom-feeding scumsucker. Like, “cuck” is a word with a pretty rich etymology, but anyone calling you a cuck who isn’t aware of who’s fucking your wife is probably just a piece of shit. Similarly, people who use “female” in the place of “woman” when their grasp of english is quite solid tend to be misogynistic assholes. ---

Sigh. I can’t leave it at that, as much as I wish I could. And I hit submit before I remembered that people have made up some reason why even a snarky response is stupid from me. So I might as well add the rest. “Oh no.” **BigT** chastised a poster. In a forum for chastising. In a thread that is a chastisement of several posters. In response to a poster who was chastising another poster. Who did so because he was being chastised. All among other posters who are chastising both the OP and other people. The horror! And you combine it with another shtick, where you don’t offer an actual counterargument. No, you just have to attack me as a bad person. Despite my saying multiple times that all this does is make me think I’m right and that you can’t rebut me, it keeps on happening. There’s this idea that I just don’t understand the world, but then no one can actually say what’s wrong. Since pretty much everyone else, including the trolls, get actual rebuttals, I do sometimes wonder if people are trolling me by not giving me a counterargument. But then I read their other posts, and see that they aren’t usually dicks. So it’s likely just that our personalities and ways of thinking are different. But I’m not going to change as long as what you are asking of me makes no fucking sense. If the problem was chastising people, you wouldn’t read so many posts chastising people, or agree with me when I chastise the right people. If the problem was that my chastisements are baseless, then you’d explain why. As long as your behavior is inconsistent with the message you try to tell me, there’s nothing I can do to make you happy. ---

Your small wall of words doesn’t address the original complaint/question in any real way and acting surprised I called you a moron for coming back a month later with “calm down” is actually dumb. **So answer this poor put upon BigT, “Do you contribute to this board in a way bedsides chiding others?”** That is my core complaint about you. It is all I ever see or notice about your postings. Maybe dial it back a lot? \*\*While we’re at it what the hell was I suppose to provide a “_counterargument_” for? “Stay Calm?” I rarely do anything but ignore your posts, so if we have a past history I have forgotten it. I had forgotten the post you resurrected in fact. \*\* To me, you appear to be some sort of weird troll and you are without question the worst junior mod on this board. ---

BigT, read this carefully you long winded, autistic fool. The pit is not about chastisement. The pit is not about a certain point of view even. The pit is a forum for a particular in group to bully other posters in the attempt to enforce not just a particular viewpoint but also a particular attitude with regards to that viewpoint. You rub the in group wrong. So regardless of the merits of your arguments you will always be a target for ridicule. At least have the dignity to stop begging for approval from the mentally ill sociopaths who make the pit their home.
