Nah, see, music theory is something old white men do. The worst thing you can do is going around knowsplaining to everyone, basking in your privilege. I prefer to reject patriarchal music and get all my knowledge from feminism 101. I make music by walking around with a contact microphone in my vagina.

PS, I am a sock puppet of Mozart/Franc Hoggle. Here is me PUA'ing the bishes:

"their entire agenda is a silencing tactic"

Huh?

That's interesting...especially when bloggers like Ophelia, PZ, Stephanie, etc contribute to a 'call-out culture' and many people are afraid to express dissenting opinions for fear that they will be targets of the next character attack campaign.

He's also gone and hidden all the old comment threads at his old scienceblogs blog. He has hidden, or maybe flushed down the memory hole with a delete, the 3 historical ElevatorGate threads. Those are the ones where Dawkins commented and everyone freaked.

I have them saved, although I'm not sure if I've got each thread saved at its fullest number of comments though. I would repost them for historical reference, like I did with the older Slimepits, but Pezus would freak out and claim copyright. Well, he'd need a bit of help since it wouldn't be at a place that has a flag button like blogs and youtubes, but eventually he'd claim copyright. Of course, his real beef is his own embarassment over EG. He could have had a lot more paying hits by leaving those comment threads up, but he must be more embarrassed than he is in need of that extra ad income. PZ claimed a while back that he had no idea where his comments went. Uh huh, sure PZ.

Here are the three threads with the now hidden or deleted comments.

1. Where he defends Becky's bullying of a woman, Stef Mcgraw (sp?) in her audience. This is also where Dawkins' first comment (Dear Muslima) appeared.
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011 ... ame-names/

2. The conversation/fight continued here where PZ gives us his PUA advice.
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011 ... ngs-guide/

3. The final thread. Article just bitches at Dawkins. This is also where Dawkins wrote his second and third comments.
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011 ... more-unto/

And here are screencaps of Dawkins comments from the above threads, including the first and kind of famous one.

Re: PZ's latest post on abortion:
PZ wrote:Yes, it’s another man pontificating on the rights and privileges of the fetus as if the pregnant woman were not there. It’s astonishing how completely women vanish when they get pregnant — it’s as if some people can only see women as an incubator for the Holy and Sacred Child.
I regularly see this perspective proffered in the abortion debate. I've always considered myself pro-choice because I support the right of women to have abortions before a foetus is viable (or as some laws state, around the 24th week I believe). I thought that was a fairly common pro-choice position, but the more I read, the more confused I get. Is this argument supposed to apply to the entire pregnancy? I haven't read many other posts from FtB discussing this aspect, and I don't see a sentence anywhere defining if that is or is not the case.

Even as an atheist I'm very uncomfortable with the idea of post-viability abortions, though I can understand their necessity in cases where the health of the mother is at risk, or a pregnancy is the result of rape/incest etc. I also understand exceptions past viability for foetuses which show crippling genetic defects, though I can't justify a) why that should only apply to 'defected' foetuses and b) what the criteria are to adjudge something as having 'crippling' defects. Thus, I even struggle to find a defined position from which to argue my own case, but they just feel instinctively wrong to me, even without the whole 'sanctity of life' religious argument.

I'm genuinely interested, does anyone know what the A+ or FtB position is on post-viability abortion? I would ask in the comments section over there, though I imagine I'd just be shouted down as a misogynist for wanting to take away the rights of women to decide. Personally, I'm unashamed of my position on the issue and at that stage I do see the 'rights' of the viable foetus as entering the equation and in some (even many) cases, overriding the rights of the woman.

That's just another unfortunate result of their ever being tenets of an atheist group. I am quite convinced that God is non-existent, but I don't feel that the "socially just" position which results from that has to be one way or the other.

I don't know if they have an official position, the best I could find was the position of one of the forum members called ImaginationTheory. At least one of the persons there seemed not to agree, so apparently they're allowing some dissent now and then.

So if you’re one of the people who are actively involved in the day-to-day operation of our movements–you run activities or groups, lobby, speak, investigate, research, write, edit, design, and all the other things that keep us functioning–you’re doing work that desperately needs to be done. Moreover, you’re doing work that I can’t do. I don’t have your skills, or I don’t have the time your projects require, or I don’t have the temperament that would allow me to keep at your work over the long haul.
Unless, of course, you are one of these activists and we happen to start a character assassination campaign against you and villify the organization which enlisted you.

I couldn't believe all the crap Dawkins took for making a very reasonable point. Rebecca, was propositioned (according to her anyway), in an elevator in Dublin. She said no. Nothing happened after that.

All Dawkins did was say that this is nothing compared to what women, Muslim women in particular have to deal with every day of their lives. He's excoriated.

I wonder if he has anything to do with the FfTB'ers anymore? I know at one time PZ made a big deal about he and Dawkins being friends (friendly?). Of course now I know it was just to push up his page views.

Dawkins also said it was “zero bad” which isn't nearly the same as saying it pales in comparison to third world problems. Almost everything we deal with pales in comparison to third world problems, so that's not a helpful metric.

The point being, he eas vilified online for saying something that everyone there should by default have known: nothing happened here. Move on. Quit making a big deal out of absolutely nothing.

After Atheism Plus came about Dawkins tweeted that we should "boycott blog networks that foment drama for page views" - something along those lines. He also retweeted Lucy Wainwright a few times, leading to the accusation he was engaging in "passive aggression" - although I don't see what's "passive" about it. I think it's pretty clear how he feels about FtB these days.

I havent been on twitter until very recently so I missed that info. I looked at his site to determine if he had written anything about all of this and was unable, at first glance, to find anything.

Precisely none. The "drama" was coming from FftB/Skepchick about poor Becky having to endure 8 seconds in an elevator at 4 a.m.

That's my view as well. I would like him to justify his statement, in case I missed something.

Just read that thread you linked. Have to say, what some of these people are advocating is just horrific. There's at least one guy there saying abortion should be allowed up to full term as the woman's bodily autonomy outweighs the rights of the child. That's FULL TERM - right up to due date. Can they actually imagine what that would entail? Dashing a full term baby's brains out? I'd like to see any of them face up to something like that in real life. I'm no religious moralist but I have no problem calling this murder. If they're trying to give the anti abortion crowd ammunition they're going the right way about it.

The Guardian article is a typical load of Grauniad bollocks, in that it sets out to defend the indefensible. Yes, there's a problem with our (UK) legal system sending people to jail in circumstances which offers only harm to the criminal and no benefit to society. Sarah Catt however, makes a lousy example. She is a stupid selfish person who got into a mess that could have been resolved in several ways at various stages, but who chose to commit an especially vile and stupid act instead. If prison is going to be used at all, Catt strikes me as a legitimate candidate for it.

Imagination Theory, over on A+ is also making a potentially valid point - women should have control over their bodies - but again, Catt makes a lousy example. If bodily autonomy is going to be taken so far that her case is acceptable, then there can be no restrictions on abortion at all.

The line is horribly hard to draw, as we all know. There are the Fundies arguing that 'once spermatozoon meets ovum, that's a person' at one extreme and Catt's (probable) infanticide at the other. I think most people would argue that the line is somewhere between these extremities. I certainly don't find either one to be reasonable.

There was also Dawkins defence of Paula Kirby. Dawkins is obviously too busy and too important to care about FfTB, and sees them as a minor irritation. He recognises that the Baboons are not representative of the Atheism/Skeptic movement, and not even representatitive of humanism or feminism, either. Because of that, he can merrilly ignore and occasionally pwn them in a subtle tweet.

I remember Stefunny suggesting "the pushback was getting him down", gleefully referring to the Baboon's constant badgering of Dawkins, but I reckon Dawkins could not care less, and judging by the amount of whaling and gnashing of teeth over at FfTB and Skepchick, it is they who are "getting down from the pushback".

The difference is, pushback towards the Baboons is considered "misogyny", "hatred of women", "cyberstalking", etc. Pushback towards Dawkins is considered fair game.

I believe that Dawkins, in general, is too busy to worry about these gnats that buzz about to the annoyance of everyone. And that's all they really are, gnats.

None of the people we've been discussing has done a thing, from what I can tell, to advance secularism or atheism. All they do is sit behind their screens (hmmmm... :doh:), and criticize those, like Justin Vacula, that are actually involved in activism.

That's an interesting one. On the one hand the claim of third degree assault seems spurious at best, but on the other there is reference to a "first victim." It could be that something happened in that incident that was more serious. Do you have any detail about that?

Although I'd like to see the back story on this it doesn't matter if there have been 600 rapes on Campus and the guy fits the description of the prime suspect. It doesn't matter because the woman in the report IS NOT A VICTIM. Asking somebody "do I know you?" IS NOT ASSAULT.

I don't care if the guy is seven feet tall with a scarred face, tattoos on his forehead and a voice like a cave troll. I don't care if the woman in question literally shit herself in terror at the man's appearance, asking a question is not assault and the woman is not a victim of assault simply because "she felt threatened".

Where did you find that BTW?

Guys. Don't do that! :hand:

On a serious note, it sounds a bit creepy to me, especially the fact that there seems to be more than one incident.
I wouldn't describe it as assault but it is certainly bordering on harrassment or threatening behavior and is likely to make people wary of being alone in those places.

That's an interesting one. On the one hand the claim of third degree assault seems spurious at best, but on the other there is reference to a "first victim." It could be that something happened in that incident that was more serious. Do you have any detail about that?
This might be the previous incident? This seem to be the original, considering they are from the same date and seem to describe the same person. It seems the incidents lead to an arrest:

Steers, oh my Steers:

I haven't heard from you about my answer to your query WRT "nigger" vs "cunt". http://www.slymepit.com/phpbb/viewtopic ... ger#p23965

This isn't baiting or anything, I'd just like to have your opinion on my train of thought. Checking myself, sort of...

Just another anagram, folks. Nothing to see here. I was bored this morning. Move along. But if you do watch it, it's nicer at full screen and high resolution.

Hmm. The circumstances of the first incident get me suspicious, possible that he was trying to repeat it somehow the second time. Still baffled as to how the second time constituted third degree assault when there was no contact.

You missed "posted something at the SlymePit" but it's hilarious all the same! Well done! Now we can have our own argumentum ad bingo fallacies!

Can someone explain what the JAQ in "JAQing off" refers to?

I was going to suggest 'splaining and other variants, but there's just so many, you'd need a separate card.

Yup. To be fair, there might be a pattern in certain internet trolls "just asking questions". But I have to wonder what is the best response:

-Telling them they're "JAQing off", thus feeding the troll.

-Answering the bloody questions, thus maybe feeding the troll, but also most probably informing the onlookers as to what one's view is.

Guess what they prefer...

Battery requires contact. Assault can best be described as an attempt to commit battery.

Atually "simple assault" can just be a threat, as in "I'm gonna beat you to a pulp".
