Commenters at Manboobz claim that I'm engaging in "rape apologia" because I consider poverty and global income inequality to be more important than feminism. The whole convo is surreal.

And I don't really like linking to that website, but it's a good example. Excerpt :

So I’ve spent the last two months trying to find her, and there’s not much I haven’t tried in pursuit of that goal. I reached out to her friends and family, but either they didn’t know anything or wouldn’t tell me. I started reaching out to anyone I thought might have some connection to her – people who worked for the same companies, people who came from her hometown or who were there presently (she had spoken about going back there). When that didn’t work, I went to QQ and started posting everything I knew about her in the hopes that someone I hadn’t thought of might have seen her.

Now try to imagine if this was posted here, what would some people say about the misters?

Did they call you a "Brocialist" for this? You know, for not putting the uterus at the center of your worldview.

David Futurelle is a gynophile. For him woman is the center of the universe and he has a harem of idiots who love him for that. What was your purpose in engaging with those people? Actual dialog?

First, please never directly link there - we don't want to give that piece of shit traffic. Second, AMR is essentially his sub and they have about as much interest in seeing equal rights as the Klan does. Third, feminism isn't now and never was about equality - that was just rhetoric to fool the rubes.

I appreciate the effort but these people are vermin.

Slow news day for Manboobz I guess.

All that site does is sit and cherry-pick comments from here. Not only is it out of context, but it's just pathetic.

These are not people who operate on the rules of logic and reason. They operate on a completely other set of rules. So trying to apply reason is like trying to calculate in metric when the question is in Imperial. It's going to be a confusing mess and you're going to crash the probe into Mars. Or something. I'm not good with analogies.

Its manbooz what did you expect? The NY Times?

There are ways to deal with the manboobz crowd. Currently there's a trashing of them going on here .

Basically, you have to accept the fact that they have no interest in the truth and will blatantly lie. Their motivations is to feel better (because they hate life) and the way they do that, is to find people and bully them. Easy answer. Just write what you have to say and don't pay attention to their responses. Hit and run. Notice in the thread I linked to, how upset they get because the troll is evidently enjoying him or herself? Basically, have your own fun in order to spoil theirs.

So I guess Will Wheaton is a cunt. That's nice to know.

I googled for David Futrelle's picture. Why am I not surprised he's an obese neckbeard?

But your financial standing affects every aspect of your life, your job, your living conditions, whether you can afford to participate in society and essentially live a full life. It is the basis for all other forms of oppression (insofar as racism and homophobia can even be called “oppression”).
