I can't get over this. Upon first glance, there is no way anyone would notice that's not PZ. It reads exactly like him, from the goofy science-humor title to the pretentious defense of assholery, to the "funny" tonal shift at the end to lighten the mood.

In his discussion of suspects in the Piltdown Man mystery, Chris Stringer alludes to the French Jesuit priest, philosopher and palaeontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (Nature 492, 177–179; 2012). The article mistakenly shortens the great man’s compound surname to “de Chardin”. In fact, it should read “Teilhard de Chardin” or just “Teilhard”.
Such aristocratic last names are often misinterpreted in English. One glaring example is the condition known as Tourette’s syndrome, incompletely named after Georges Gilles de la Tourette, who first described it. “Gilles” is part of the compound last name and not a middle name, as is commonly assumed.

From now on, I’m gonna refer to these two fuckewaddes as “Douchebagge de Chardin” and “Fuckenarde de la Tourette”, because fucke you, thatte’s why.
Oh, and the author of this important piece of correspondence to one of the scientific journals of record?
Antoine Louchart, of the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon, Lyons, France.
His official austrofrench name is now Antoine Louchart de la Pissewadde.
Or maybe he got scooped by competitors in France.

Or maybe he's just an arsewadde.
Da fuck did I just read?!?

It's like PhysioProffe writes a blog everytime he has a stroke or something. He's a professor? Like, in real life? I weep for mankind.

In other news, Tuvok, LykeX on Fincke's blog wants you to substantiate your claims about Ophelia. So, get substantiating! :lol:

I think Physioprof is like an instructor or something. I don't think he actually holds a Ph.D. Fuck, maybe he does, I can't remember.

Anyway, it's not particularly surprising. So he's highly educated in one field, so what? It doesn't mean he's not a cretinous tool.

Steretypes are generally fine in SJW-land; it's only a few very specific, designated Oppressed Groups who cannot be stereotyped.

In fact, given that most SJWs are a. intellectually simple, and b. just generally assholes who justify their tedious assholery as "righteous anger", I'd hazard that they use simplistic generalizations far more than mainstream society does.

I'll say this for the guy, he's made me a lot more tolerant of people I disagree with. Seeing his constant examples of always casting other people in the worst possible light has made me much more aware of and careful about how I approach others.

Why do the Pharyngula pod people hate civility so much? Because if you have to rely on insults, baseless accusations, ad hominems, and lies to 'win' an argument, then you don't have good arguments.

Of course, civility is only a minimal requirement. A person can argue in a civil manner in favour of horrible things. That is not in dispute. The pod people, however, pretend that asking for civility is giving a pass to those who argue for horrible things. It's their tactic of coping with their own intellectual impotence: they realise that they risk losing a debate conducted on civil terms.

Civil discourse precludes the possibility of silencing, shaming, and dismissal of privileged debater's arguments out of hand. Of course they don't like the idea. Their arguments would have to stand on their own merits.

It isn't that straightforward. Baseless accusations and ad-homs are not natural part of sincere debate, of course.
But sometimes people will use "civility" as a shield for their cognitive bubbles. They will gradually lower their personal threshold for offence and the more ground you concede and the less likely you are to get anywhere.

I've recently decided to take a long vacation from a group of close friends who exculpated that behaviour in a minority of us, who - curiously - held also the most untenable views. They also failed to spot when said minority engaged in the very behaviour they themselves fulminated against.
Ultimately, free speech had gone out of the window, under the banner of preservation of (faux) civility.
It was the Pit that opened my eyes to this situation. Here people don't mind the wrapper, they look at the content. That is all what should matter.

In the US, tenure at a prestigious university, running a productive research lab, publishing in high impact journals, and success at getting/maintaining federal research grants are not incompatible with being a total arsewad in your spare time. In fact, being an arsewad might indeed be a key to success in each of those arenas (I wouldn't know). There are many like PhysioPreppie in such positions: privileged upbringing - maybe East Coast "old money", prep school education, Ivy League university degrees, successful academic research careers, six-figure salaries and privileged lifestyle, and so the cycle continues with their pale and pampered offspring. If you're raised in such an environment, then you might have no problem routinely exploiting people (especially your "inferiors") in order to succeed ... I mean, you're giving them jobs and/ordegrees, right?

You can bet that such arsewads took part in, and perhaps instigated, some pretty demeaning, bullying, and cruel behavior towards their "inferiors" during their prep school, university, and grad school years - not that the ones who are born-again SJWs would ever admit to it. Unfortunately, some of the tormenting and demeaning activities occurred rather more recently, because if such behavior is deeply entrenched in your personality, you can't just give it up when you want to fly an SJW flag.

I think that may be the appeal of the SJW flag. It gives social acceptability to the behaviors you mentioned. They get to be assholes but can claim the moral high ground.

In fact, given that most SJWs are a. intellectually simple, and b. just generally assholes who justify their tedious assholery as "righteous anger", I'd hazard that they use simplistic generalizations far more than mainstream society does.
The entire subculture...I think calling it an ideology is too generous...revolves around simplistic generalizations. Identity Politics can't exist without putting people into boxes based upon these characteristics...without doing this there's no Identity. It's why they're often horribly sexist/racist/etc. much more often than the average person.

Er, which LIST would that be, Earthman?
The extra secret one we keep in the semi-secret secret backchannel forum. Bhoytony will have to be put on the list now for his mutinous request to kill the site.

As for you, Lsuoma, you've been removed from the list. You were only on it between the post wanting to end the Pit and the one where you changed your mind about that. :D

Oh shit! I'm not supposed to mention secret things. I'd better backpage now, and try not to automatically hit that submit button...

PhysioPricke must be close to PZ or Brayton (or, perhaps more likely, they just don't give a shit), because his entire blog is an exercise in trolling his own readers.

Agreed. It also gives them a pass on actually doing something constructive for real social justice. It's not as if they were the types to mentor at-risk kids in public schools, or to work at soup kitchens or with roadway/waterway clean-up groups at university, for example. No Peace Corps or Teach for America or Clean Water Action, either ... that would disrupt the path to success and $$$. But other people should totes be doing those things, right? Just like other people should reduce their travel, heating/cooling energy consumption, and food miles.

But then it is up to the other party to point out what's wrong with the cognitive bubbles and to puncture them mercilessly.

Okay, but the thing is that PhysioPricke isn't even a good troll. With a few exceptions, his blog isn't particularly inflammatory, it's just dumb.

I don't think it's difficult to see the former high school/frat boy/graduate TA elitist bully in that brief post.

Of course, civility is only a minimal requirement. A person can argue in a civil manner in favour of horrible things. That is not in dispute. The pod people, however, pretend that asking for civility is giving a pass to those who argue for horrible things. It's their tactic of coping with their own intellectual impotence: they realise that they risk losing a debate conducted on civil terms.
Yep. They have conditioned themselves to automatically scream insults and otherwise pile abuse on people because so often their own arguments have no merit.

The right to be uncivil only belongs to them though. If anyone is ever uncivil right back, they send out a dozen alerts and Myers can't scamper over fast enough to ban the offender.

What, no mention of porcupines? No wonder that comment didn't sit well with them.

I see a completely deranged individual whose worthless posts would be reduced to nothingness if he had to express himself in a civilized manner. He has no redeeming features. PhysioProffe is so bad that it is not even bad. Citing him is to ridicule him.
