This isn't rocket science, guys. There is a large school of thought that says white people making sweeping generalizations about black people, for example, is more pernicious than black people making sweeping generalizations about white people. Ditto for men and women making sweeping generalizations about each other, straight and LGBTQ people making sweeping generalizations a

It might be true that some people can brush off racist, sexist, or discriminatory comments about their sexual orientation because the nebulous social category that they belong to is β€œin power” but it’s certainly not going to be true of everyone. Furthermore, those two types of prejudice don’t exist in isolation. The latter feeds into the former.

Sociologists are not ethicists, so their observation that certain groups hurt more from prejudice because of some background social relations isn’t going to be enough to motivate the belief that we should accept one form of prejudice but not the other.

I'm not a fan of the "look how nice of a guy I am" type of post. I'm sure many of us cherish our mothers and grandmothers etc. Do we really need to come out and brag about it on an internet forum?

a rare win for mongo


Wan, you were banned for calling women whores in the abortion thread


by Crossnerd m

How about this? I’m going to continue to ban people for overtly misogynistic comments and rhetoric, as well as comments about posters mental health or deeply personal situations that they’ve chosen to share. And I won’t feel bad about it at all. So if you don’t want to get banned, don’t do those things.Not sure what else we’re talking about here other than the usual suspects at

This obviously doesn't include someone sharing a dating experience and being called a date rapist

You have to realize that we weren't all child prodigies so these rules don't seem coherent. You have to spell out your big brained logic. You never do. Even when it comes to your politics. It just comes across as the angry lunch lady yelling at kids

"Its quite simple, I'm a great person. If you disagree with my politics you're a bad person. Your comments are hateful". Also men are disgusting

We are in the presence of a genius. It's an honor


I mean, he did sound very date rapey tbh

Honestly, yeah, this would be a better place if we all talked more about how awesome our moms and grandmas are/were and how much we appreciate them.

Einstein. Everything here is written. I never called anyone a whore

I posted a video of a college student complaining about how pregnancy would ruin her college experience.

I then wrote that over 95% percent of abortion is birth control. I wrote that because dealing with people like you and the leftist here is tedious. Yes a tiny percent is rape, birth defects, etc. Yawn, can we continue...

When i point out you don't get pregnant unless you let guys bust nuts in you, that's just a fact. It's not a form of oppression. That's the rules of nature. I explained that and the fact that abortion is technology to kill the baby without harming the mother. I also referred to hookup culture as letting guys do jello shots out of their cleavage.

When we translate this to crossnerd I called women whores and was slut shaming. It's now illegal to challenge hookup culture in the context of abortion, because slut shaming

Such a big brain. I actually think a lack of shame is one of the bigger cultural problems today. Another illegal thought of mine. Such evil takes

1 in 4 sociology professors self identifies as a marxist. Sociology is cooked


Children pls

I agree also. But by your own words, both are pernicious and I think shouldn't happen.

Sure. That's more or less my view, as long as we agree that one is a bigger problem than the other.

This is a moderation thread. People are reacting to moderation decisions and bans. There is obvious bias and hypocrisy. That is being confronted. If there wasn't obvious bias and hypocrisy, this would be a great spot to address it.Crossnerds sexist comments don't bother anyone, the hypocrisy does. It's one thing to have a hypothetical hypocrisy*, it's another to moderate that w

lagtight,

In case you are wondering, this is the unfunny, overly emotional conservative I had in mind.

Do you think you are being clever by not using the word whore?

Do you think, in your infinite wisdom, you could write up a scathing critique of hook up culture that didn't paint images of irresponsible young women letting dudes do jello shots off their tits while having loads busted inside them?

Of course. And what's wrong with that exactly?


I stand corrected, wan. You quoted someone calling women whores, agreed with it, and then expanded upon it.


My apologies

NO he did not agree with the whore comment you interpreted it that way . You banned him for calling women a whore when he did not

To boot it your defending calling someone a date rapist and than doing it yourself

I think being labelled a whore is as repulsive as being a date rapist


You guys should just say what you really want to say about women. Don’t let me hold you back.


Classy response from a raging lunatic mod who bans people for **** they didn’t say.

All this because her little black heart got broken.


by Rococo m

So we should ignore the lesser problem? Crossnerd doesn't bother me at all. I find her "I hate all men, all men are the problem" comical. I do find it amusing that she can't see how those type of posts lead to accusations of being biased against those that don't agree with her politically. I also think she's too slow to drop the ban hammer on many here.

"You guys engage in mental gymnastics to justify some whore murdering your baby"

"This is 95% of abortions. I (a whore) don't want responsibility for my actions"

I understand that right wing media literacy is notoriously bad but you guys aren't going to wiggle around this one

This is so difficult for the radicalized left. You canÂ’t control or separate your imagination with reality.

Hook up culture exists and has been thriving for decades. Apps have created a golden age. Having criticism in the context of an abortion thread is perfectly reasonable. Abortion is being used as birth control. Last time I checked about a million per year.

When i explain the detachment from reality and explain that getting pregnant isn't oppression it's nature. Its to help bring back radicals back to reality. When I write that abortion is technology to kill the baby without harming the mother it's to bring the brainwashed back to reality

Cultural norms are usually downstream of nature. We condemned promiscuity historically for a reason. Birth control and protection from disease will alter culture and behavior. It doesn't necessarily erase the use of a historical norm.

Hookup culture, a lack of shame, and a total lack of responsibility are obviously up for debate and discussion. Especially in the context of an abortion debate. Like getting pregnant and not wanting a baby is what? Doing so in college is what? Imo this is just an extension of the leftist being radicalized in to categorizing people in to oppressor oppressed categories. The oppressed should be sympathized with, not burdened by face criticism via responsibility

You translating obvious points spelled out clearly to wan is calling women whores is just you continuing the tradition of being a dipshit that always doubles down


I don't think expressing the idea that abortion exists to allow women to sleep around should warrant a ban.

It's wrong of course as it exists to kill black people but Juan should still be allowed to express his views.

I like my women how I like my coffee. I don't like coffee, but it smells good.

Hey, you ****ing radicalized literal ******, can you have a normal conversation for once in your pathetic life?

You don't have to frame everything as lunatic marxists trying to have futile conversations with you. I get it, you think people smarter than you are too condescending so you bite back with nonsensical ******ation but that isn't going to fly today

I thought whore was slang for hooker. It wouldn't even make sense to acuse me of that since hookers have sex in exchange for money. Nobody was talking about anything close to that

I didn't say or imply anything close to that

Very active imagination

This type of posting I’m probably going to tolerate less than the incel brigade’s complaining
