I'm coming to the conclusion that the majority of the posters on that thread are subtly trolling it. At least...I hope so. I do not want such people to be real.

If I were a young man this is what I would take away from the archery whine:

Guys, don't do this.

Don't do what?

Don't have women as peers. You see, they are special snowflakes and have extra rules of engagement that male peers don't have. So it is easier and, quite frankly, safer to avoid them altogether.


Another round of foot-bullet feminism!

In all serious (and without trying to be overly offensive) A+ Forum seems like a gathering of actual mental patients. Each and every one of the people "on board" has some massive psychosis that they demand everybody pander too. I am not saying it's immoral to have poor mental health but delusions and paranoia should never be encouraged and threads like that one linked to earlier do exactly that. They get a platform to say some guy going about his way, not harming anybody is in the wrong because he didn't perform the sacrament of *walking to the fucking archery course* in the correct manner. And then we get the mod telling us how he socially annihilated a guy during a game of "Munchkins" because he said he was gonna "rape" an imaginary monsters face. DAFUQ? Killing the monsters in "Munchkins" is fine but don't rape their imaginary faces because......Fuck knows.

Darn it, my one chance to finally use 'xe' properly as a pronoun and I go and screw it up. I wish I had less privilege so I could bring myself to care.

Seriously though, steerman, thanks for the correction. It's always much appreciated (no sarcasm implied). :D

*Sigh*

I'm not trying to spin anything, I'm just voicing my opinion. As I've said, I'll have to think about it a bit more. If a "victory" is for a fringe group to force someone to resign from a post where said someone could do some good work for the "cause", it's a poor victory indeed. If Justin resigned to avoid SCA getting harrassed by those loonies, I think he took the high road.

But these are just my opinions. I'm not spinning anything.

And I disagree. Had he been fired by SCA, it might have been a win. As I said above, it really looks like he took the high road. Makes them look even more despicable to me.

So the halfwit who wrote that archery post considered the guy to be a possible rapist and STILL walked with him on the oh-so-dangerous path just because he said she should. As I see it she is either lying through her teeth about thinking this was a terrible, risky thing to do or she is a fucking idiot. No, there is another possibility - she is lying through her teeth AND she is a fucking idiot.

Personally, I see a definite dignity in what he did. I'm not saying it was right but it was dignified.

Being somewhat tainted with Republicanism if I'm not mistaken .... never did track down precisely why though, but I sort of get the impression that it had a whiff of "four legs good; two legs bad" to it ....

It was kinda wrong, in the sense that he's depriving SCA from a good asset. Maybe when the Horde calms down and forgets about him, he'll get back there. But it certainly makes them baboons look like assholes. Again.

Anyway, he has real activism on his hand, so all the best to him!

Don'tr forget, he had a bow and arrows too! She followed him whilst he was carrying a weapon!


On another note I watched the Dillahunty video. Pile of shite. He bottles it incredibly. Basically says "There's no problem here! None at all! There was a problem, a teeny tiny problem but it's all fixed now! Everything is rosy in A+ land".

I asked him to try the same thing over at Butterflies and Wheels, Pharyngula, Almost Diamonds etc. and see what happens yet again.

Oh completely agree. Even the most hardcore baboon knows that. It's just never addressed because Myer's word is Truth.

I'll have to add the video to my "watch later" playlist though. I'll get back to you on it.

I personally did not like their appointment of Edwina Rogers either. I didn't feel that she was a good fit and was hired because she does PR, regardless of for whom, if they pay.

She likely took a pay cut to work for the SCA, I will give her that. But she kept making weird claims that Republicans really were more secular than we realized. She tried to paint an over the top positive face on her past work and it didn't seem based in reality.

That being said, I didn't really follow her work that much since being hired...as I am not obsessive about how groups conduct their affairs unless it really affects me.

So anyone want to rate my predictive abilities. i will admit that i am not psychic, and so won't go for Randy's prize. what i do know is that Dillahunty is not an honest broker. his vlog is bullshit wrapped up in a dorito. no wonder he had to edit it so many times, so that it effectively says fuck all. Thankfully all can view his skirmish on the aplus circle jerk and draw their own conclusions. He makes a big deal about a site admin, coming in and sorting things out. What he negates to mention is that the site admin appeared after he had revealed himself as dillahunty the A+ blowhard. Fuckwit. If he had remained concealed the admin, if he ever appeared would have asked the mods why they hadn't banned the MRA yet.

And I honestly think one the major issues there is seriously fucked-up view of the world. In fact, there was recently a post here concerning a comment on FfTB (which is more or less A+'s siamese twin) decrying those people who have 'extrovert privilege'. So often, they can be seen blaming their personal woes on either their apparent lack of privilege or the apparent abuse of privilege by others. Sally Deranged once tweeted that she was lacking in 'economic privilege'. That this might be down to her being a lazy heifer who couldn't be arsed to get a job other than being a lump in her sister's house was neither here nor there; that she could say something without any clear irony suggests that she considers herself some poor, blameless, shat-upon prole in this particular area of privilege. And besides, why should she desire more economic privilege anyway? After all, wouldn't that just make her part of a privileged system that keeps everyone else down?

So the 'privilege' thing, as much as they appear to resent it, at least gives a veneer of nobility to their lack of...well, pretty much everything. No need to strive, to work hard, anything like that; because all you'll gain is more privilege, and as everyone knows, privilege - whether innate (gender or racial ) or acquired (economic, religious and so on) - is what causes so many problems in the world. And one can hardly dare to say, 'yeah, but if I had those privileges, I'd make a better job of being a decent person than all those others who share the same privileges', because then one is accepting that it's more about people as individuals rather than the system as they perceive it as it stands.

So really, when you're oppressed by the misuse of privilege by others, and that it's pointless to strive for more privilege because you'll only be propagating this terrible system that keeps so many people down, what the fuck can you do? Bemoan it, decry it...and dare not see any failings of your own, to the extent of - to paraphrase Richard Harris - passing off your vast limitations as personal virtues.

And all the while demanding, without a trace of irony, the privilege of having everyone else pander to those vast limitations.

Yea, I know; ain’t it a bitch to have all that privilege. Tough job, someone has to do it: to those who are given much, from them much is expected. And all that jazz ….
Seriously though, steerman, thanks for the correction. It's always much appreciated (no sarcasm implied). :D
De nada; one must be careful of proper language and protocols … However, in passing:

You merkins really need to stop with all this neo-puritan bollocks, seriously
I'm reading the comments on Justin's 'I resign my leadership position with Secular Coalition for America' post. After posting a couple replies to oolon I think it would be a better use of my time just to make a post covering everything here. oolon, shut the fuck up, even as a troll you suck.
Anytime you want to actually back your shit up in a real conversation with real context and real back and forth you let me know I would be happy to have that conversation with you or it can be left to anyone here who wishes to address your incredibly ignorant comments. Until then anything you say has very little real meaning, kinda like that sound an empty bag makes as the wind blows it down the street.

Can go you one better than that. Called it to the letter. Of course, it was fucking obvious that he wasn't going to give up on A+. To him it's more of an abstract ideal (that somebody else should implement because he's real busy).

That dungeon and dragons shit just reminded me of the community episode and that i'd rather watch it again than look at some of the crowing over at ftb and a+.

Oh, but she's a columnist for Free Inquiry etc., so she must be a great writer. :roll:

Just another miserable, underemployed hypocrite, with not much to do all day other than stew in her Prune juices, clutch her pearls, voice her righteous indignation on the internet, and try to make everyone else as miserable and sour as she appears to be.

If the FC5 and the A+theists are going to continue with their dung-smearing and lies, I really want nothing to do with the atheists/skeptics community at this point.

Yes, it's in the planning. Just a few odd time schedules to work out, but Reap is being very courtuous about it. He's got live shows at the moment, and I've got live being sick and puke all day long as well. I'll let him decide the time and subjects he cares to adress.

FYI -Got Phil scheduled for tomorrow and ERV is gonna be on Oct 14th

I presume Justin has resigned only because of the petition and other blogs bullying him, rather than more personal threats that we haven't heard about yet?

Only, because it was only earlier today he posted here thanking everybody for their support.

Chin up, Justin - at least Thimbledoo is ready and prepared to forgive you of your sins, just like Jesus: http://freethoughtblogs.com/lousycanuck ... r-the-sca/
Vacula, the moment you recognize your misdeeds and make an effort to reach out to us, I’ll personally forgive you and give you another chance. Not a chance for leadership, but a chance to work together to be atheist activists without rending our communities over gender politics. I know this means little, coming from the guy who still thinks your argumentation is vacuous and your tactics often trollish. But it’s a sincere wish that you’d have a moment of introspection and actually consider that the people who find your actions offensive might have good reasons, rather than imagined fascistic ones.
Hath a high opinion of himself, doth Thimbledoo. Methinks he hath delusions of adequacy.

The part he is missing (either because he refuses to or can't figure it out) is that there is no reason to believe that the mod fixed the problem for any other reason than that he was talking to Matt Dillahunty. If he was just some anonymous, first time commenter voicing a legit concern, the conversation could have gone very differently. For a lot of us here this isn't a hypothetical, we actually have been largely banned from FTB and A+ blogs and forums for voicing legit problems we have with the way they run things over there (which never got addressed or fixed). Also Matt keeps saying how the A+ forum is being constantly attacked by all of these vicious trolls, but doesn't his experience make him wonder about how reasonable of a standard the mods at the A+ forum have to deeming a voice of dissent as trolling or not-trolling? If his supposedly measured critique was unjustifiably deleted, why is he assuming that the other deletions by 'internet-nobodies' were warranted?

Dillahunty's cognitive dissonance on the A+ matter in a nutshell:

The A+ people have a problem with trolls, which is why they they are quick to assume that a naive new poster is a troll.

The A+ people went apeshit on my sockpuppet because they thought I was a troll.

Now, is it just me, or is there a little circular reasoning going on here?

Again, we go back to what Noelplum said on FfTB: 'You people make me feel like I'm trolling you, even though I'm not.'

You do realise nigger and faggot were quite happily bandied about not so long ago? As a thought experiment can you imagine a world where Rebecca et al have won their fight against misogyny so misogynistic terms** are no longer acceptable worldwide? By your own admission you would then modify your behaviour to match that norm.

<snip>

Is it not easier to accept that some people (Not insignificant number - but usually women) will find the word cunt to be demeaning and degrading in the same way that some people (Not insignificant number - but usually POC and gays so a minority in many places world wide) will find faggot and nigger to be degrading and demeaning? If you don't want to degrade and demean group B by use of mere words then why degrade and demean group A?
I'm middle-aged and I don't recall those words ever being "quite happily bandied about" in any situation that I've encountered. Maybe it happened in those parts of the US that are weirdly homogeneous and lacking in diversity, such as much of the upper Midwest. You know, the dominant geographic paradigm of FfTB, where "POC and gays" (your wording) may indeed be tiny minorities. I try to avoid living and working in places like that.

If we stopped using the words "cunt," "bitch,"and "twat,'" your lot would simply find other words about which to be offended. You'd come over here to the Pit, oolon, and manufacture some sin-of-omission nontroversy about how one of the Slymepitters used the WERD several times and NO ONE did ANYTHING about it!!11!! It matters not one bit what the word is, or what we do or don't do ... you'll set it up as some sure sign of our racism/sexism/misogyny/gender traitordom/pure unadulterated evil over at FfTB, and since we've all been preemptively banned from posting, there's nothing we can do about it. You're a fucking disingenuous hypocrite, oolon, just like all your handlers over at FfTB.

Now run along back to Mordor, Gollum - post a nice mendacious report about the nasssty Slymepitterssess and their wordssesss, and maybe Myers will let you touch the precioussss.

What?! You've got to be kidding me. These people have been making a name for themselves for over a year now on doing nothing else but infusing gender politics into the atheist community, and dividing it up between them 'good decent folks' and us 'evil misogynist scumbags'. Fuck me, I can't tell anymore when there being disingenuous or just plain dense.

A fake email address given ‘Brock’ is clearly not a woman. The image on the facebook page is of a model not ‘Brock Lee’.

Comment from ‘Brock’ on the news story of a police officer kicking a woman on the floor.

unfortunately the dumb bitch lived :(

So slimepitters are now standing up for the most misogynist, racist scum on the internet.
Um...no-one's standing up for the character Becky Boos doxxed; it's more to the fact that she did doxx. However, given that the details are so obviously fake, I will concede that it is possible she didn't dox if she was aware that these details were indeed not wholly truthful (Becky's post on the matter gives no indication of this) or that she was so thick she couldn't see it.

I'm reading the comments on Justin's 'I resign my leadership position with Secular Coalition for America' post. After posting a couple replies to oolon I think it would be a better use of my time just to make a post covering everything here. oolon, shut the fuck up, even as a troll you suck.
Anytime you want to actually back your shit up in a real conversation with real context and real back and forth you let me know I would be happy to have that conversation with you or it can be left to anyone here who wishes to address your incredibly ignorant comments. Until then anything you say has very little real meaning, kinda like that sound an empty bag makes as the wind blows it down the street.
I find it quite easy to imagine you running after empty bags as they blow down the street shouting at them that they have nothing to say that you want to hear... Damn those uppity plastic bags and their lies!

Personally, I'm hoping they feel empowered enough to go after that powerful, connected libel lawyer who has been rumoured to be the mystery groper at those Skeptics in the Pub events.

After all, as the not very powerful nor connected Dr Buzzo will attest, it's not as if mere rumours would prevent the the courageous horde of FfTB from naming and shaming, would it?

Given that Vacula's perceived unfitness for his role in the SCA brough out such righteous fury in the baboons, then surely someone like this powerful, connected libel lawyer who's been rumoured to grope women is surely unfit for his prominent role in a British skeptics group and magazine, right?

Upthread someone mentioned that nobody from FfTB would apply for the SCA position because it would necessitate them doing real work, and a light came on above my head: someone else with the same aversion to work, who didn't follow up her "career" in politics because of the work it would have entailed, and she could go on being vacuous, self-obsessed, and annoying, yet still have her ego stroked and get what she really wanted: cash and fame.

Yes, the baboollies (including associated wastes-of-space like Twatson) remind me jointly and severally of Sarah Palin: narcissistic, vacuous and completely useless. Plus, of course, many of them are as incompetent at stringing coherent thoughts together as is she.

And email addresses. Don't forget email addresses. Unless you presume most people are happy for their email addresses to be freely available.

But you didn't read my post properly: as to whether or not Becky Boos did dox remains moot: either she knew the details were fake, in which case it isn't a dox. Or she didn't, in which case it is. It's that little magic thing called intent. You know, that little thing you deploy here when writing 'nigger' frequently, so that no-one takes you for a racist.

Actually, outing unhinged nutters is pretty irresponsible; unless you're an expert on mental health and have some professional familiarity with the person, it's best just to leave well alone, or contact the appropriate authorities if your concern is that great.

This species of hipster likes to pretend they are hardcore nerds, and latch onto anything they deem "retro".

I go to a art school with degrees for animation and gaming, so you can bet that there are enough of them here. They love [or pretend to, I don't even know sometimes] the whole 8-bit "chip tunes" thing, too. Actually, I'm pretty sure they're the ones that started it. Imagine "musicians" that make "music" using nothing but the audio technology that was available to game developers that made games for Nintendo's first console. This "music" makes me want to punch myself in the face....

Annoying twats like Watson would fit in just fucking fine. She's got the ridiculous look and the dead personality thing down pretty well...
