How are there enough hotpockets in the world to pay this fat faggot for his janitorial work?
>he will never have a real job
>he will never move out of his parent's basement
>he will never be at a healthy weight
>he will never know how to cook anything besides a hot pocket
>he will never have a girlfriend
>he will never have any friends
It seems to be a common AGP thing, I'd be curious to see it studied although that would never happen in today's climate. I think famous self-proclaimed AGP Anne Lawrence wrote about it a little. What I'm most curious about is if they have a skewed perception of themselves where they think they actually look like beautiful laydies or if they realize they look like dudes in dresses but find that hot.
I've seen a few chasers admit they're more turned on by non-passing trannies. It seems to be part of it for the ones really into forced feminization.
I'm guessing it comes from mental illness. If you think you are a woman simply by declaration, is it any stretch to also think that you are hot simply because you say so? And you know he thought he was being clever by only claiming he was a 6/7 as a woman. Looking at the photos he posted, you can tell he really thinks he is a 10. He just thought if he low-balled it we'd believe it.
I don't know how you find and stomach all these threads where people end up calling you an asshole because misgendering trannies is literally worse than murder or something.
I usually have too weak a stomach for /r/neovaginadisasters but this post and the thread it linked to susan's place cracked me up.
There's an explanation in the reddit post, along with an irl picture (nsfl) in the comments, that this is a common outcome of penile inversion technique.
The way the poor guy presented it, it's like the doctor "missed" the target where he was supposed to drill a hole and when OP went to dilate he found out that things had really... gone south, so to speak.
I don't know how you find and stomach all these threads where people end up calling you an asshole because misgendering trannies is literally worse than murder or something.
They talk a lot about 'doesn't justify misgendering'. Gotta ask, does anything justify it? What, if anything? I mean, killing has conditions where it is justified. Surely there is a line where misgendering is justified.

yes it is sometimes justified by their standards. but, only THEY can do it and only when they are claiming some beyond and caught degenerate is being cast out of the club. then its a fake hence ok.
Bardfinn was just made a mod at /r/masstagger. The reason I know this is because I suddenly received a permanent ban for no apparent reason and saw the new mod announcement. I saw "Penny" and "she/her" and was all lol obvious tranny, and suddenly I remembered who that was. I'm assuming the ban is because I made fun of someone there two months ago but who the fuck knows
Yes I saw that. Goth Dad also imagines that Kiwi Farmers care enough about his bullshit to make socks to "harass" him:
LMAO, he can't even bring himself to spell out "Kiwi Farms".
The dev and despot of Masstagger, Nathan Beam who is /u/morpen on Reddit, recently recruited mods for his /r/masstagger sub, and of course Penny immediately volunteered because /r/mouthfeel was such a major disappointment for him:
OK, let's talk about Masstagger, because people who don't know what the fuck an API is probably have no idea what the hell a Masstagger is either:
Masstagger is a browser add-on created by the SJW censor Nathan Beam of Birmingham, Alabama. He is https://www.reddit.com/user/morpen/ on Reddit so make sure you block him too.
Nathan Beams explicitly said that he created Masstagger to rid Reddit of Natsees:
"The Reddit Masstagger is an online tool which tags far-right reactionaries"
Except... that's not what it actually does. It doesn't tag (just) far-right reactionaries. It tags literally everyone who isn't an SJW cult member. It's SJW censorware. There is no right of appeal if you are unjustly tagged and you are not made aware of the fact that you have been tagged.
Supposedly you can check if are being masstagged by using this:
If you want to try this out don't use it on yourself or anyone else though, I am sure this is just a honeypot to harvest new names/IP addies to add to the SJW blacklist.
Masstagger is to Reddit what the BlockTogether lists were to Twitter. It's how you sneak SJW censorship standards into an online platform. At first BlockTogether lists were allowed as a personal filter. Then those "personal" blocklists became the standard by which Twitter decided to start banning people. Since SJWs are bigger nerds and spend more time online than rightwingers or any other of their opponents, their SJW blacklists became the standard for everyone else. In other words, "personal" my ass. The SJWs are now trying to censor Reddit through the same mechanism. People are encouraged to download and use Masstagger, but you can rest assured that if a certain sub is added to Masstagger (and Nathan Beam himself is the sole despotic tyrant who decides who to ask to his blacklist for the add-on) , you can rest assured that Reddit Admins will be more likely to ban a sub that's already on the Masstagger blacklist. The idea is to guide Reddit Admins in the banning of users and subs that Nathan Beam and his fellow SJWs hate and want to see disappear.
r/masstagger: The Reddit Masstagger is an online tool which tags far-right reactionaries automatically, helping users to identify concern trolling …
www.reddit.com
Masstagger is already controversial on Reddit:
CMV: Masstagger is harmful to free an honest discourse.
I think the masstagger extension, though well intentioned, is harmful to honest and fair discourse for the reason that it lumps people together and encourages being judgemental. Participation in a subreddit is not an endorsement of any particular worldview.
The purpose of the extension is stated on the website as being for labeling "literal Nazis" so people can avoid engaging with them. However the list of "hate" subreddits betrays it's true purpose; crushing political disagreement, and "othering" people who disagree with the author.
It seems like they are labeling anyone who disagrees with their narrow view of the acceptable opinions even a little bit as a "literal Nazi", which is exactly the kind of thing hyperbolic right-wingers accuse the left of doing.
There are calls in the /r/masstagger subreddit to add labels for things like /r/tories, and they already consider anyone posting in /r/Conservative a Nazi. So Tories are Nazis now? Winston Churchill was a Nazi? These people are so ideologically possessed that they seem to see Nazis behind every bush. Everything is a dog whistle. They are proving the paranoid right to be correct in their assessment of the insanity of the far left, and expanding the right wing base as a result.
This kind of "with us or against us" mentality is the root of fascism. It typifies the far left currently and it pushes moderate progressives (like me) away from the democrats. That's what got trump elected in the first place.
Here's another Reddit user describing just how awful Masstagger is:
Mephistophelesi 27 points
There’s a subreddit called r/Masstagger which is a subreddit run by a programmer who created a program to label reddit users to incriminate or dismiss their credibility.
It is “intended” to label crazy political users so people can steer clear of arguing with them but in reality it is also a political fascist tool similar to a certain country in the 1930’s-40’s, which would label people wrongly (the subreddit is politically biased and malicious towards anyone) and can cause a witch-hunt or even cause legal troubles with this site.
Is this allowed? And even if it is, can’t it be banned for abuse of a program through bias and persecution? It’s almost a doxxing tool too!
EDIT: I’d like to reiterate that this tool is able to be abused by the wrong people and cause severe harassment and reporting.
Yeah but this tool is regulated by a biased bipartisan programmers and supporters who support persecution and push a political agenda without being subject to the major public opinion on reddit, as opposed to Reddit’s own which is viewed and regulated by everyone.
And like I said, why trust somebody who is politically motivated and who can’t handle politics even at the most civil manner and become erratic when they’ve been disagreed with like I’ve dealt with? Because I spoke to the main programmer and had this issue with him.
He’s also admitted to enjoy targeting people because at least they’re “shit heads” and he doesn’t care for what dangers he provides for people who’re listed under this program. He even welcomes the legal troubles that can come from this program.
Tag people under a certain category, which their name is placed in a database that users utilize to avoid people.
But with the ability to see the records of people who’re tagged and what they’re listed under, it’s gives people free ability to persecute and harass people for whatever they were tagged as.
It’s like when someone name drops and causes a witch hunt on Reddit, which was later a bannable offense because it caused the problems I was talking about.
This program is also run by a programmer who pushes a political agenda and has a subreddit he manages which is an echo chamber of bias towards those who’re targeted.
The main programmer also stated to me in a debate that he rather enjoys censoring and causing harm to people he disagrees with.
TL;DR This is literally an automated witch hunt name drop /censorship machine that is openly maintained by a fascist
I looked at it, recognized its functionality and uses, read the subreddit posts, talked to the main programmer who quite literally assumed my political alignment and began to mock me by using opposing political views just because I defended someone making a joke.
Yeah I’m not trusting a childish person who made a program this dangerous, and who is politically impolite and politically biased
To give you an idea of just how rabid and unreasonable the SJWs on Masstagger are:
Masstaggers believe that Pewdiepie and his 100+ million subscribers are all far right Natsees. The mod of the Pewdiepie sub came groveling to them but Nathan Beam still would not remove the sub from his blacklist:
/r/Pewdiepiesubmissions is NOT an alt-right hatesubreddit. The post that post is about slipped through, and has now been removed. All users participating in raids will be banned from r/Pewdiepiesubmissions. I am the main moderator of pewdiepiesubmissions, and i by no means tolerate hatespeech, and am even a r/AgainstHateSubreddits poster.
They also think that /r/freemagic, a discussion group about the game Magic The Gathering, is a far right Natsee hate-sub:
> This is a wide open and unmoderated subreddit to talk about the Magic: The Gathering.
Mainly anti-"SJW" and anti-"PC", with sprinkles of defending white supremacy.
Various TERF subs. /r/DropTheTea is pretty much a clone of /r/LGBDropTheT. /r/TrollGC is TERF shitposting. /r/Gc_woc is TERFs in denial of the inherent white supremacy and fascism of their movement.
GenderCriticalGuys is a spinoff of r/GenderCritical, which is already tagged as a far-right subreddit. The sidebar of GC links to GenderCriticalGuys, and the sidebar of GCG states that it is a sub for men who agree with the ideas of GenderCritical. It has 1900 followers and is wildly transphobic, so I think it deserves to be tagged by masstagger.
It's a TERF sub for cis lesbians, largely who have been banned from /r/actuallesbians and /r/lesbianactually (ed. to fix the link) for violating those subreddits' rules on inclusivity towards trans people. But the sub itself (/r/truelesbians) is clearly a TERF/transphobic sub.
Here's Nathan Beam recently describing Masstagger as "precarious" with 35,000 users (this means that 35,000 SJW censors are deciding the fate of millions of users on Reddit):
Recently, many of you have noted the extension going down more and more frequently. No, we're not under attack, and no I didn't forget to pay the server bill. We've simply outgrown the cheap server I currently rent from AWS. Unfortunately this little box is running me about 50 bucks a month, which is about as much as I can afford. To that end, I'm finally launching our new Patreon Page! Here you can support the operating costs on a recurring basis and hopefully we can build a base that allows us to grow with our userbase (Did i mention we broke 35,000 active users???).
If it goes down with 35,000 users, the best method is to download it and just appear to use it "legitimately". Basically, one could download the censorware and masstag anyone who says "banana", then argue later that "banana" is the new dogwhistle for "Natsee pedophile" and that it was started by groomer Onision ("I am a banana!") or something. These crazy paranoid SJW dumbasses think that everything is dogwhistle anyway. /r/GenderCritical has 40,000+ users, if they dowload this shit and start tagging "bananas" left and right it's the end. Here's another idea: masstag anyone who says "pineapple" and later say that it's a dogwhistle for "transphobe Jesse Singal" who posts pictures of pineapples to Twitter whenever he's upset (it's basically his version of of posting kittens to calm nerves.). I am sure y'all can get creative with this.
There's also a right wing fork (derivative) of Masstagger called Reddit Idiot Tagger but apparently it doesn't work:
steamport
I made a version that tags SJW subreddit posters. It's called idiot tagger
Firefox only because it's the superior browser and it doesn't charge $5 to put an add on in the store
Block /u/morpen and the rest of the /r/masstagger mods pre-emptively.
If anyone ever mentions your sub in /r/masstagger suggesting it's a far right hate-sub, immediately report them to Reddit Admins for organized brigading and harassment under the new rules.
Educate Reddit users and mods about masstagger and urge them to block and/or report /u/morpen and his bunch too.
Post anything and everything you know about Nathan Beam here.
Goth Dad has finally posted a copy of the nuked "Security Advisory" where he cried victim over the fact that under the new rules Reddit users can now report him to Reddit Admins for abusing his API access to cyberstalk them:
Several moderator teams have become aware of a security threat to the stability and operational capacity of moderator teams on Reddit. This threat opens the possibilities of:
Temporary or permanent suspension of moderator accounts;
The inability to provide moderation coverage of a subreddit for the duration of moderator suspension;
Potential takeover of a subreddit via /r/redditrequest.
Characterisation:
A weakness in the Reddit, Inc. Modmail Reports Process permits an attacker to create an account "in good standing" (A "Throwaway"), then participate in a target subreddit in such a way as to bait a ban -- through social engineering techniques, angering the moderator or moderators of a subreddit into banning that account, or otherwise soliciting moderator mail interaction with the moderator.
Attackers might also simply modmail the target subreddit.
Once the attacker's account is banned or the attacker has the audience of a target moderator in modmail, the attacker then uses further social engineering techniques (such as taunting or baiting language, even abusive language) to solicit a response from one or more moderators that may be interpreted by one or more employees of Reddit, Inc. or their designated support contractor corporation(s), as "Abusive or Harassing" - specifically being Rude, Vulgar or Offensive or Threatening.
The attacker then Reports the specific modmail interaction(s) with the specific moderator(s) to Reddit, Inc. by way of an official reports system, resulting in administrative actions against the moderator(s) -- actions which are most commonly temporary suspension of the moderator's account.
We have reason to believe that individual communication replies in modmails are being evaluated in a context-free system -- where the wider context of the behaviour of the attacker towards the moderators is not considered by the employees of Reddit, Inc. or a designated support contractor corporation -- Reddit Support Staff -- in the Modmail Reports Process. This may include decontextualisation of the status of the participant -- Evidence supports the hypothesis that Reddit Support Staff may be unable to distinguish "Banned User" from "Moderator" in their Reports Evaluation process, and that usernames may be replaced with temporary placeholder values -- to prevent the username, role, status, or reputation of the participant in an exchange from prejudicing the evaluation of the exchange or incident by the Reddit Support Staff.
This attack is carried out as both a focused campaign to destabilise specific subreddits and moderators, and to grief targets of opportunity.
Admin Response:
Admins have been approached about instances of this issue; The response from the admins has been that they must hear from the suspended users (moderators) in each case, and in the known instances collected, the Admin response to each, upon appeal, was that the temporary suspensions (of moderator accounts) would stand.
Mitigation:
Adoption of a code of conduct for moderators on your mod teams which prohibits the use of pejoratives, epithets, and slurs in communications with users;
Adoption of formalised, standardised messaging^† (See Appendix) to use to respond to common moderation requests ("Why was I banned?", "Can I be unbanned?", "What did I do wrong?", abusive language from users, etc.
Refraining from repeatedly muting, unmuting, and re-muting users via modmail;
Refusing to engage requests to "chat", "discuss", "debate", or "banter" with users in modmail - Treat modmail as a clerk's office window.
Adoption of Moderation Action Appeals (Ban Appeals) processes that place the responsibility on users to make their own case for the ban being lifted -- see Appendix example below.
Cannot be recommended:
Moderators might consider the creation and use of an account dedicated to moderation of one or more subreddits ("Compartmentalisation" or "Bulkheading") to protect their "main" account from being affected by these attacks; Reddit sitewide rules still apply in such a case, preventing the moderator from using any accounts from participating on Reddit for the duration of the suspension of a suspended "Bulkhead" account.
This will not mitigate against the attack, and therefore cannot be recommended for this purpose.
† Appendix: Example of Standardised Ban Appeals Message
"
You may appeal this ban 72 hours from now.
To appeal, you may reply to this modmail.
In the appeal, you must:
Note (in the Title or Body) that it is a "Formal Ban Appeal";
Link to the content that you know or suspect to have prompted the ban;
Explain in full which of the subreddit rules and/or Reddit Content Policy the content violated;
Explain your plan to avoid violating the subreddit rules and/or the Reddit Content Policy in the future;
Apologise for the incident.
Appeals submitted without these five elements will not be considered.
"
The standardised message above places the responsibility for awareness and moderation of a user's behaviour on the user, and provides Good Faith users a path to re-join the subreddit community (Request; Come Clean; Take Responsibility by Remembering the Human and Having a Plan) -- while communicating to Bad Faith Attackers that their requests to access the community, must meet the expectations of the community.
Reminder:
Reddit, Inc. requires that moderator teams accept Ban Appeals;
Reddit, Inc. does not require that moderator teams approve Ban Appeals.
Executive Bullet Points:
Attackers are trying to bait moderators into i.e. swearing at them in modmail, then reporting those incidents to get the moderators suspended;
Admin response to this phenomenon has been that the approach exploited by the attackers will continue to be standard Reddit policy;
Apply known Best Practices to communications with users, especially in ModMail - Ask moderators to treat ModMail exchanges as if they were an interaction in an Admin-moderated subreddit space.
Develop and deploy standard messaging for banned and actioned users, that abide by the Moderator Guidelines for Healthy Communities: "Moderator responses to appeals by their users should be consistent, germane to the issue raised and work through education, not punishment."
TL;DR It's all part of /u/Bardfinn's campaign to deny Reddit users the right of appeal upon being banned. Penny wants to be able to ban users with no heads up and no right of appeal, you know, because he's so ethical and just and bullshit. I can imagine what happened behind the scenes that prompted this: he lost his fucking mind again and called a bunch of banned users natsees and fascists in modmail for asking why they got banned, and here he's trying to cover up by gaslighting the mods, arguing that he should be allowed to yell at Reddit users and call them names in modmail. He basically demands the right to treat banned users like shit for making use of their right of appeal, without them having the right to report him to Reddit Admins for treating them like total trash. It's basically a long rant saying: "Reddit, please don't ban me for having no control over myself and throwing one crazy temper tantrum after another."
I suspect this is why Penny got more active with Masstagger: if Penny can pre-emptively masstag any users that might want to report him to the Reddit Admins, he can make them lose credibility beforehand. It's an attempt to advance-smear anyone who might have an interest in reporting him now or in the future.
LMAO, he can't even bring himself to spell out "Kiwi Farms".
The dev and despot of Masstagger, Peter Pawlowski who is /u/morpen on Reddit, recently recruited mods for his /r/masstagger sub, and of course Penny immediately volunteered because /r/mouthfeel was such a major disappointment for him:

Masstagger is a browser add-on created by the SJW censor Peter Pawlowski. He is https://www.reddit.com/user/morpen/ on Reddit so make sure you block him too. From what I can tell Masstagger goes all the way back to a previous project of Pawlowski's which was the Foobar2000 audio player:
He has been working with Masstagging since then, and basically decided to apply the same principle to Reddit.
Peter Pawlowski claims that he created Masstagger to rid Reddit of Natsees:

yes it is sometimes justified by their standards. but, only THEY can do it and only when they are claiming some beyond and caught degenerate is being cast out of the club. then its a fake hence ok.
Also I'm fairly sure they can misgender a cis person at any time with only the slightest provocation. They probably need much higher standards for using it on a fellow troon.
Steven Joel Akins, his birth name has long been public of his own accord:
Bardfinn’s real name is Steve Akins, and in an email correspondence he describes his interest in cryptography and Internet security as personal and societal/political. But he’s quite literate on the subject.
They talk a lot about 'doesn't justify misgendering'. Gotta ask, does anything justify it? What, if anything? I mean, killing has conditions where it is justified. Surely there is a line where misgendering is justified.
bathroom shit has made it harder to keep vulnerable populations safe it used to be a man had to take a male client to the bathroom and vice versa, but now some organizations are deeming that discriminatory....
Not the guy you're asking but generally in healthcare or personal support services (i.e. tard guard) the accepted practice is to have female carers help female patients with intimate toileting/showering needs and male carers help the males whenever possible. Same goes for correctional officers but that's changing. It's to try and minimize opportunities for sexual misconduct or false accusations of such, as well as to try not to embarrass the client. Also for practical reasons (clients might need someone in a place without unisex toilets/showers/other spaces available) but since troons are in the middle of shitting all over that concept it may not matter soon.
There was actually a shitfit in my province a few months ago saying that female patients shouldn't be able to request female doctors for pelvic exams (the actual doctors however have no issue with these requests and will always accommodate unless it's an absolute emergency). The articles talking about it don't mention troons explicitly but I'd bet everything I own that you'd be digging up autogynephile perverts if you started delving deeper into the whole "women shouldn't be given an option not to be touched intimately by a man" thing. After all that's kind of a running theme here.
