If someone punches me (and I mean a healthy human, not some mentally challenged or toddler) I should not be censored when punching back because of the gender of my attacker.<br /><br />I abhor any kind of violence, so I obviously do not condone violence against women. (and to have to write this kind of disclaimer just show how feminist our society is!)Carlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09158954981522261563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600902089077918514.post-67551543935130215072012-08-27T00:00:06.983-07:002012-08-27T00:00:06.983-07:00"female DV victims bring the violence on them..."female DV victims bring the violence on themselves"<br /><br />This is true in almost all cases.<br /><br />"enjoy their injuries"<br /><br />I don't believe women enjoy their injuries, but they do enjoy causing drama in order to manipulate their men, and they do enjoy the power that they wield once they've pushed a man enough to hit them. Paul Elam covers this well in his "How to Slap Your Way to Slavery" piece.<br /><br />"women are so inherently bestial and irrational that they can only be kept in line with humiliation and terror"<br /><br />Most are. The only thing that can keep women in line is force. Once constraints were lifted from women look what happened to our society. As Angry Harry said in his piece, Women and Chimps, "women are the schemers, the phonies and the frauds".<br /><br />"the only real reason not to beat women is the threat of being arrested"<br /><br />What other reason could there be? If it weren't for the police's use of force preventing men from disciplining women who misbehave, there would actually be a lot less violence in homes, and both men and women would be much more content.<br /><br />If you don't understand that women have a basic need to be dominated by men, you don't understand women.<br /><br />All these ideas are readily discussed in the manosphere. The only thing Ferdinand does, and I do, is we talk about these things honestly, bluntly, and without apology. We don't tiptoe around things just because they'll offend our enemies.<br /><br />The portion of the men's movement that is too scared of offending our enemies to talk about these things, to look deeper at genuine solutions to these problems, etc., they aren't going to accomplish squat, because their premises are false.Jeremiahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01813380919951435220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600902089077918514.post-76948311869118795802012-08-22T08:37:44.858-07:002012-08-22T08:37:44.858-07:00Girlwriteswhat,

You admit that the majority of the essay, which said, among other things, that female DV victims bring the violence on themselves and enjoy their injuries, that women are so inherently bestial and irrational that they can only be kept in line with humiliation and terror, and that the only real reason not to beat women is the threat of being arrested, was questionable, so why even discuss it at all?<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600902089077918514.post-13437227927662863402012-08-20T14:30:10.529-07:002012-08-20T14:30:10.529-07:00You completely and utterly miss my point.

All she said was that it's rather suspicious that these events took place so soon after she came to the attention of said crowd, on videos that have been around for months and years. In addition, given FTBs documented approach to disagreement (that of shunning/shaming/banning), her hypothesis is not an exercise in ad-hoc-ery.<br /><br />FTB has motive, opportunity, and a pattern of behavior. I really don't think GWW needs to take these demands all that seriously. FTB has some serious reputation repair, and internal policing, ahead of them if they wish to play innocent victim in circumstances like this.

Let's propose a hypothetical situation where somebody makes a video suggesting that GWW DMCA'd herself to make money, and that we have no more evidence of this than we have that somebody within the FTB and Skeptchick communities DMCA'd GWW so they can harass her in real life.<br /><br />Now let’s look at our background information. GWW makes videos devastatingly critical of feminism. Feminists leave angry comments on her videos. GWW made comments on ZOMgitscris’s video, a feminist and blogger at freethoughtblogs, which received many upvotes. Our background information also tells us that people within FTB have stalked and harassed people who do not kowtow to feminism. It is known that they continue to suggest such strategies to each other on their private mailing list, even after Greg Laden was kicked off their blogs. It is also known that when such behavior is exposed by somebody, FTB will try to twist things around to make the whistleblower look like the bad guy (just think, we would never know about these things if it wasn't for Thunderf00t's super amazing "hacking" skills).<br /><br />So what does our background information tell us about this hypothetical situation? That the only basis for making a vid which claims that GWW DMCA'd herself would be to cover FTB’s own ass, and not because there is genuine reason to suspect the possibility. On the other hand, our background information shows that GWW has good genuine reasons to consider the possibility that whoever DMCA'd her might be part of the FTB and Skeptchick communities. <br /><br />The background information may not be overwhelming to make the claim that people within FTB are responsible for the false DMCAs, to turn “may have” into “has”, since it could have been some random feminist or a sympathizer with FTB and Skeptchick who DMCA’d GWW, and that possibility would need to be controlled for. But as has been pointed out, GirlWritesWhat has not CLAIMED that the FTB and Skepchick communities are responsible. If ZOMGitsCris is unhappy with people voicing their suspicions about the people she blogs for, then she has nobody to blame but her own community, because just like the boy that cried wolf, her own community is responsible for its own bad reputation.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600902089077918514.post-2423047095867871752012-08-19T10:30:32.413-07:002012-08-19T10:30:32.413-07:00In the third of the first three screenshots, someo...In the third of the first three screenshots, someone marked my response to zomgitscris as spam, which means that she will not receive notice of my response, which very clearly showed her why she was wrong. I'll paste my comment here:<br /><br />Zomgitscris said:<br />"So if I go right now on a video and say that you MAY be a pedophile, with no evidence given, that would totally be ok, right? RIGHT?"<br /><br />I responded with:<br />"The issue isn't whether you're okay with it, clearly you are not. That doesn't change the fact that you are strawmaning. You are demanding evidence when no claim was made. GWW gave REASONS for why people within your camp MIGHT be responsible for this. Suggesting, with good REASON, why somebody MIGHT be a pedophile is fine, even if they dont like you saying it."<br /><br />And I've noticed that she keeps trying to justify her strawman tactics with more bad analogies like this.<br /><br />She says:<br />"So it will be ok for me to make a video right now and publicly state that "GWW may (MAY, ok?) have DMCA-ed herself in order to get some money and sympathy from people" ?"<br /><br />To which I've replied:<br />"That depends on whether there is a basis for making that claim. The people you side with have a HISTORY of shady behavior (it wouldn't surprise me if FTB do end up suggesting, in order to save their own asses, that GWW MAY have done something like that). But the idea that GWW false DMCA'ed herself defies our background information. Where as the suspicion that people from FTB false DMCA'ed GWW does not go against our background information."<br /><br />I'm going to expand upon this, so that zomgitscris and others who argue the way she does have a better understanding of correct logic.

And that if real evidence appeared that my blog or readers were in anyway involved, I would help to stop that, and even help investigate who the attackers were.<br /><br />I just briefly checked Cristina's YouTube channel and her blog at ftb (where she embeds your DMCA video) and there is no such statement anywhere. She does host several dozen comments calling you out, including one from Ed Brayton one of the creators of FTB, and he too missed the opportunity to either deny or inform his readers that attacks like this will not be condoned.<br /><br />In October, 2003, Donald Luskin sued Atrios to try and out Atrios' real life name. At that time, bloggers on the left and the right came together to condemn that lawsuit. (google atrios donald luskin).<br /><br />So none of this means that Cristina or FTB is behind any of this in anyway, but it sure seems to be a lost opportunity on their part to clarify that they do not condone any of this shit.<br /><br />Jacques Cuzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04162365885596290648noreply@blogger.com
