(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 02:17 am (UTC)(link)Under the guise of social justice, I have seen things such as: it's hilarious when men get sexually abused, it's good when men get raped because then they can understand the plight of women, straight white kids getting bullied is hilarious, people dogpiled and not forgiven ever for making an honest mistake with semantics, and entire communities that are basically a huge circle jerk for showing off how much they hate whiteys and men.
and from this non-male, non-straight, non-white person, SJW get a big "fuck you" from me. they harm the cause, they don't help it.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 04:42 am (UTC)(link)but cis people go 'oh my god so I SHOULD DIE FOR BEING CIS OMG YOU'RE HORRIBLE' because knee-jerking and failing to critically assess the issue. sure, not everyone is going to get it immediately, but that's part of the point. the outrage and hurt and 'but why meeeee' aspect is what a cis person is supposed to feel when they hear that phrase. and then they're supposed to realize '...oh. oh I see'
and to return to the broader topic, I hate the strawman of 'but I have seen a (minority) do (horrible things) so ALL (minorities) ARE TERRIBLE AND NEED TO STFU' everyone in these conversations says they've seen XYZ but citations are always needed and never provided, and the strawman is only ever used to shout down people who are markedly NOT saying (horrible things). ie 'all social justice is stupid because someone* told me to get raped once so you can't complain about rape jokes, rape survivor!'

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 05:05 am (UTC)(link)See, the problem I have is that's fucking stupid, but also
- you're telling all racial minorities to die (if they're cis)
- you're telling all people with disabilities to do (if they're cis)
- you're telling all LGB people to die (if they're cis)
- you're telling all disenfranchised people to die (if they're cis)
- you're telling all people with economic hardship to die (if they're cis)
and don't give me the bullshit "but I'm only talking about cis scum! if you're not scum you're fine!" argument, because that shit doesn't fly; no one reads it like that, it's just a shitty defense for telling people to go die and claiming it as "social justice"

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)So if you get shit for saying that, you deserve it 110%. Seriously. I don't even need "strawman" evidence, here you demonstrate perfectly why SJWs suck.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-18 03:00 am (UTC)(link)On the flip side, if you think it's EVER okay to gang up and shout someone into silence for merely stating an opinion with which you disagree, even vehemently, then I have very little respect for you. Two wrongs do not make a right, and when you sink to an asshole's level you're certainly not lifting anyone up or making the world a better place. You're just adding one more asshole of a slightly different variety.
