Matt, I really think you owe them an apology.

Yes, I saw that. Looks like we both follow Matt on FB or Twitter, then.

Absolutely. Not as entertaining though; or perhaps entertaining on a different level.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I'm subscribed to the YouTube channels of some "interesting" people (on both sides of the argument). So, yeah, I get to watch this tennis match, with balls of bullshit getting fapped from one side to the other. It can be entertaining... sometimes.

it isn`t realy a great sence of humor. it`s a very poor sterotypical joke - attempting to appeal to others because of the sterotyps they might have in mind.

still, are these people so deadlocked on what they perceve to be the only correct way of handling debate, vocabulary and grammer that they prevent entry to a debate on the base of a "name" they assume to be "politicaly incorrect" in their world view?
i have made the expirience that people who try to prevent people from entering a debate on the basis that they might ask "uncomfortable" questions or "provoke" and be "insensetive towards them" are the worst of the worst and usualy fanatics.

Isn't it just a spoof off of 'The British Are Coming"? How exactly is that offensive?

I'm totally having flashbacks to the meltdown of the freethought movement I was once a part of.

Is a guy by the name of Ford Vox one of their leaders by any chance?

these topics on their page. subjects such as:
Arguments to Avoid
Abelist Language to Avoid
Schrodinger's Rapist (derail of Arguments to Avoid)
Men: Are You Willing To Be Called A Potential Rapist?
Saying "crackpot" without stigmatizing mental illness

3 lists of things to avoid.
a call to stigmatise half of the human population, followed by a apeal not to stigmatise.
wtf?

edit-
fuck! posts and topics one submits, have to be aproved by a moderator, or they will not be posted on the page!
yeah, it`s a nogo area. talking to someone who will silence you when you ask that someone uncomfortable questions?!
