Being anti social justice warrior is a catalyst for bullying behavior

RE: Being anti social justice warrior is a catalyst for bullying behavior
Quote:No I haven't "missed the point" at all and if you're going to argue that, at least elaborate on exactly how I've missed it instead of throwing out a simple quick argument you think sounds good.

See my next paragraph down.

Quote:That is the world we live in, the "for or against" mentality. When the whole "gamergate" situation was going on, there were people responding with perfectly valid and reasonable points about how video games are not supposed to be for children or depict reality, and are FAR more violent against men than women, and those people were painted as anti-feminist and anti-SJW warrior just for pointing out logical facts. Point at that, while rape is always the fault of the rapist, there are some situations where the victim didn't exactly use common sense as well, you're "victim blaming" and defending rape. Speak honestly about Islam as a political system and criticise the ideas in the Quran, you're an "Islamophobe" who hates all Muslims.
We're not talking about gamergate, we're talking about what has become of people who used gamergate to start their profiteering off of anti social justice warrior content. People like Sargon of Akkad and The Amazing Atheist, Armored Skeptic, Undoomed, Thunderfoot, whoever else you want to add to the list. These people basically make a living off of the cash cow that is pointing at something they think is silly and saying to their audience "look guys! isn't this silly? laugh at and mock the silly people!" and my point, which I referred to in the last quote, is exactly this. This sort of behavior leads to a culture that disrespects people who are different, and the end result is no different from Donald Trump supporters. I know that it's two different breeds of people, but the result is the same. Intolerance and frankly ignorance, ignorance because what the hell do you ever have a problem with people who want to identify as whatever gender they make up for? It's hurting no one. It's just hate mongering.


Quote:We do live in this world, where you have to constantly tread carefully and watch what you say so you don't become a meme of being attacked for your not-left-enough views. I'm not saying there isn't real ignorance, real bigotry and real Donald Trumps, those are out there. I'm just a bit tired of seeing very reasonable and logical viewpoints get shot down because they're too honest and/or not ideal enough.
Really? Because we actually don't live in a world like that. 


Quote:"Why so much intolerance for people who are experimenting with ways to identify themselves?"

Because these people pull these terms out their arses and, rather than calmly explaining what it is and why it's different enough to the other 50 current trendy terms with similar definitions, jump down your throat when you question it or react like "wtf is this new thing now?". It's just silly and it's making a joke out of the LGBTQIAYAWNWHATEVER community.
Anyone who sees that sort of thing and gets the wrong impression of the lgbt community is ignorant. And I think it's a bit hypocritical to be saying that those people should monitor what they say and do when you were the one just complaining about there being too many rules. How much more hypocritical can you get than that, honestly man? Come on.
