I know it can be hard, but keep in mind that what you're seeing is extremism. They're the left wing equivalent to the right wing's Minute Men or some of the more vocal Tea Party participants. They aren't... rational and they make the job for the rest of us that much harder.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Came here to say this. Unfortunately, a lot of times the most extreme elements are the ones who like to scream the loudest, which drowns out a lot of the more level-headed people. :/

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't go so far to call them equivalent to the Tea Party, given how little organization, or influence they actually have, but they do seem to me to represent the naivete typical of a lot of the SJW crowd. I watched a friend get dogpliled for trying to talk about outliers in an academic sense, because how dare you say XYZ isn't "normal".

The problem I have with them, is that if it's not perfect now, then it's horrible and needs go away, rather then being a step in the right direction to be improved upon (example The It Gets Better Project).

Exactly this. A lot of Internet "social justice" unfortunately lends itself to creepy One True Wayism, and that's gross.

I don't have a conservative bone in my body (eh, okay, maybe one or two -- I like Rand though I think she's usually wrong and sometimes fucking disturbing), but it unnerves me sometimes too. I do think the right wing is currently unfortunately doing a LOT of pandering to homophobes, classists, and racists, but I think it's an unfair leap from that to "every conservative/Republican/whatever is *ist."

There is no left-wing equivalent to the Tea Party, but thanks for playing.

When it comes to rabid negative attacking attitudes? Yes there is, it's called ONTD.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah I don't really see _p doing a lot of racial hatred and religious bigotry but whatever, bro

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not your bro. Actually, I'm nobody's bro, I'm female. The right has the market on racial hatred and religious bigotry. The left version would be different but equal types of vitriol.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
tbh I find that "vitriol" carries a lot less weight when it's not paired with, ionno, societal oppression and fierce hatred of minority identities, but I guess that's just me.

Like if you really can't tell the difference between hating someone because of their race, and hating someone for being racist, then I don't know what to tell you, girl.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"different but equal" to racism and bigotry? Hell fucking no, that is a disgusting, privileged attitude and if I'm an extremist for saying so, so be it. No wonder people like you are getting called out. You are saying that being called a racist/homophobe/bigot is as bad as experiencing racism/homophobia/bigotry. Which means you are either a very fucking stupid person, or a shitty human being, or both.

Fuck you for that comparison, f'real.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think she was saying that. I think you're desperately trying to put some strawman's words into someone's mouth so you have an excuse to rant and feel good about yourself.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
"You are saying that being called a racist/homophobe/bigot is as bad as experiencing racism/homophobia/bigotry"

Uh, no I'm not. That is totally your own thing, I didn't say any of that.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Ladies and gentlemen, your resident SJW.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-17 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow. You just totally went off the rails on the crazy train. I'm almost impressed.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-18 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
Congratulations. You have successfully made a complete and total ass out of yourself.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-18 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
Fuck the other anons in this thread, you're completely right, and f!s has is just experiencing a bad backlash to anything they consider SJ related right now.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-18 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
Hi sameanon. Sorry you didn't get as many people agree with you as you thought, but that's what you get when you're use straw arguments.
