Encounters With SJWs/Tumblristas Offline or In Unusual Communities

Strangely enough, it's not a question I've heard people ask here at home. It's actually considered rude.

But hey, it's probably okay for her because she was measuring your privilege before deciding which one of you would be punching down.
But social class has no bearing in their privilege calculus.

A bunch of writers squawking about "men writing women" in a Discord I lurk. One of them took the position that men acknowledging the differences between Average Joe and Average Jane is wrong, because "there's really no such thing as masculinity or femininity."

Yeah, honey, no. 99.9% of humanity all adown history would disagree.

Isn't the fact that there are differences between men and women and that some people don't understand the opposite sex precisely why some male authors come up with "men write women" type female characters (or vice versa)? One can argue about whether this or that is biological or social, but there are some pretty significant differences between your average lad and your average gal.

So what is it, they want inclusivity or they don't? All men are supposed to write about nothing but all male boarding schools or some shit? Don't expect any roles for women in movies created in such an environment.

You misunderstand them. Men, especially white men, are not supposed to write at all.

Hell I remember something a few years ago where editors and publishers were calling for a year where no male would be published, because apparently despite 99% of the publishing world being filled with women, more male authors are printed.
 
This is one of my favourite threads on the Farms, so have my two main encounters...

My old flatmates little sister used to stay with us a lot at weekends because we lived in a city and she attended a lot of cosplay events nearby. She was incredibly exceptional and identified as gender/sexuality special, which annoyed my openly gay-ass flatmate as much as it annoyed me. I presumed because she was in her late teens that she would turn up at our doorstep blind drunk most of the time after a good time with her mates but instead she would return from a day of cosplaying in a fit of fury because of something minor. Once it was because she got told to take off her homemade Ood mask when in a store and another time it was because a stall she visited had the wrong lesbian pride flag.

When I was at university, there was this older woman in one of my classes who dressed like a typical new-aged hippie and was very opinionated. It was a discussion based class, and 20% of our grade rode on attendance and participation. She made every single conversation about either feminism or the environment. You could see it annoyed our Professor who always appeared to centre-right, especially when she deflected from the entire topic. We had to do a group book report and partway through the assignment she sent a bulk email out to the whole class asking to change group, claiming she was being bullied by her group. Rumour has it that she was dumb as shit with no grasp of what a report should look like and kept dominating her groups until they eventually had to confront her to salvage their grade but she took this as harassment.

Gets his toddler daughter who doesn't know any better to yell "fuck the pigs!" and "death to cops!
That’s an interesting mental image.
Unfortunately most of these interactions were in person, but one classmate did feel the need to comment on a piece, so I have some evidence.

That’s going in random_text
 
As with many Discord servers, there is a list of words you are not allowed to use in this one. Do not ask for that list; the mods "don't feel like repeating them" because the words are so ugly, so hateful, that even typing them out causes them lasting pain. But don't bother pleading ignorance when you're called out; you know better than to use those words.

Mean words are the equivalent of R'lyehian. Don't speak nor hear them, lest they tear your mind apart.
 
So I'm part of a lot of cat groups on Facebook. I still have it so I can keep up with distant relatives and a few old friends, but I curate my feed to only see things I want to see. Like cats.

There's one called "This Cat Is Employed".

It's fucking full of SJW asshats. Every time someone posts a picture of a cat in a police vests, here comes an army of "ACAB! ACAB! THAT CAT IS A FUCKING BOOTLICKER AND SO ARE MODS, GUESS THAT CAT'S GOING TO GO KILL SOME MINORITIES" There's also a hamplanet sow who demands "TW FOR POLICE MENTION" on every post mentioning cops at all.

Like. I get it, there are problems with the legal system. Plenty of cops suck.

But these are the same r/e.tards who think that all us Kiwis should be prosecuted for cyberbowling and that misgendering should be a crime worthy of imprisonment.

Who's going to come beat down Null's door if we get rid of all the cops? Just enjoy the goddamn cat pictures.
 
I've recently gone back to playing the browser game Flight Rising after taking a massive break, and I swear I don't remember the site being as pozzed as it is now. No @UnsufficentBoobage I'm still not over this I'm pretty sure it's been fully culturally colonized at this point because everyone talks like a 15 year-old enby tumblr user.

Maybe I'm exaggerating, but I'm serious when I say that I have no idea how to talk to these people. I don't know how to function in an environment where I have to constantly walk on eggshells and being myself feels like a liability.

They suspended me for two days recently because of a bunch of offensive names.

The site is for people 13 and older and apparently naming dragons after the kinds of jokes a 13 year-old would make is VERBOTEN.

What even were the names? Just curious as to what it is they'll actually ban people for. Personally I fight for a day when we shall all be equals and name our favorite dragons "Nigger Faggot Cunt Chink Paki" with utmost love and respect for minority communities.

I believe that was the "trypophobia" freakout. This one user-submitted design related to the annual event for the Plague Flight had a diseased hole-looking illustration and a few users flipped their shit or something. Also at one time they had a creature under the name "Wendigo" but they decided to change it because... it's offensive to Native Americans for some reason? I don't really know why.

Hemoglobin, Stalin, Pustule, VirginalBride, NudistBeach, LetsGetNaked and Robotrippin.

But I've been on their radar before with names like JizzMopper, PearlJam (both of those were for the same dragon), PukePail and Cisnormativity.

Hemoglobin? Seriously?

Welp, best remind them it's inside them and tell them how to remove it.

It'll come out in an EVEN FLOOOOOOOOOWWWW!

I have to say, those are a lot less abrasive than I was expecting. That attitude of "have fun but also no fun allowed" acutely pisses me off

Apparently they have a new "no names mentioning bodily fluids or waste" rule that they're really keen on enforcing, and that included poor Hemoglobin. Which is weird, because they have colors called "blood" and "sanguine."

Yeah, my jimmies were rustled thoroughly, smh.
 
Recently picked up a second job involving dogs. One of my coworkers is a real gem. Los Angeles-born Mexican woman from a pretty wealthy family. Late 20s, mildly chunky, unevenly dyed blue hair, really feminine. First week I met her, she had to report back to LA because she was arrested for bringing a stainless steel butterfly knife onto a plane at LAX. She argued that it was racism because the knife was dull and thus a training knife and also racism because they had the Mexican TSA agent talk to her about it in Spanish. This was just the start of my insight into this kaleidoscope of a person.

Sincerely believes that 9/11 was an inside job done by Bush and "That other guy." No, I couldn't figure out who the other guy was. I even pulled up a list of every influential person involved and I still couldn't narrow it down. They framed two innocent Muslim men when it was FBI/CIA (she kept switching) agents who flew the plane into the towers. I asked about the Pentagon. She said what. The reason for doing this was declare war and get oil, increase racism against all brown races (including Mexican which was why she was arrested for the butterfly knife) and keep Republicans in power. I asked about the PATRIOT act. She said what, paused, then clarified that increasing patriotism was part of the plan too in order to indoctrinate the youth for American Hitler Youth via the Pledge of Allegiance. I said no, I mean the PATRIOT act. She didn't understand then continued on how it was also done to boost the American economy. "Oh, via the war," I said. No, I was wrong, it was because all of the construction companies had to come and clean it up, and that boosted the economy. And because of the increased patriotism, these companies had American flags on their equipment. And you know who owned that? (either the flags or the equipment or the advertising, I do not know, I couldn't get her to explain beyond "the stuff") Trump owned it. 9/11 was an inside job to get Trump elected.

She believes it should be illegal to fly the American flag or have it anywhere outside of the border of Canada, and even then, it should just be at places to show that you're in America and not Canada now. It makes her physically angry when she sees it on buildings or on equipment and she fantasizes about making "one of those Russian beers that explode" and destroying them. She hates people who wear the American flag. They're all Cishet white male KKK nazis. (Oh, she thinks the KKK and Nazis are the same thing and said that Hitler was one of their important people. "An Imperial Wizard? Grand Dragon?" I asked. "No, I mean the KKK clan," she answered.) She wishes that she could lynch them. Thinking about destroying the flag excites her. No, I did not ask if she meant sexually. I asked what about other flags? She said it was okay to fly them because it's a symbol of pride in their culture. What about flying the Canadian flag in the middle of Canada away from the border? "That's okay," she answered. I gave up.

Back in Highschool, her teacher told her that it was indoctrination to stand for the Pledge. "Like that Kool-aid thing," she said. "It was flavor-aid," I said, "They couldn't afford kool-aid." She blinked, said "Same, capitalism sucks," and continued. No, I don't think she understood. Because she couldn't be arrested for it, she started kneeling during the Pledge. Everyone was shocked because she was the good girl in school with the best grades in class. I doubt this. But because of her, everyone started doing it, teachers too, until everyone just ignored it when they played the Pledge over the intercom. When she saw Kaepernick do it years later, she was annoyed that he got attention for it because he was a man, and not her.

Most of my clothes feature the American flag, camo patterns, etc. I came in to pick up my paycheck on my day off. She snorted and said "Nice Nazi gear," and muttered about how all men were the same.

America should be nuked.

She entered a dog into our system as Sesar. While I was talking with the owner, I said it was a unique spelling. The owner was confused. It's meant to be Caesar, so I fixed it. I mentioned it later so she could find the dog in the system and she defended herself saying that she didn't care about English. I pointed out that it's Latin. She said that Latin and English are the same. She hates colonialist languages, so she doesn't care about Latin. Real languages like Spanish were what people should speak.

A local ad keeps playing on our radio about "Shit zoos" and not Shih Tzus. I commented about it, then she asked what was wrong. When I told her the right way to say it, she said that she did know that, after all, she took 4 years of French so of course she knows how to pronounce a French name like Shih Tzu.

I speak German and am learning Russian. "Good thing you're not white," she said, "Or I'd think you're a Trump supporter." At that moment, I decided that ever bringing up my time making calls for a Republican office for the wages of pizza and a free MAGA hat would be an unwise action.

Country playlists and playing Country on the radio is racist. No, the jury is still out on if Country songs by themselves are racist.

It's discrimination to not play rap. Unless it's rap by white men. Rap by white men is appropriation and racist.

Every Holiday season, she writes a letter to corporate asking to take "Baby It's cold outside" off the Christmas playlist. It's misogynistic and encourages date rape.

I don't like rap. I mentioned that I was annoyed with a manager at a previous job for playing Nigga Nigga Nigga over the deli radio at 2:30 AM every morning. I'm racist for that.

It's racist to play Christian music. Even if it's not Christian music and just a song that mentions God, it's racist. Most Christmas songs are racist. I like Christmas. I'm racist for that.

Men don't care about dogs and will neglect them.

White people are the worst race when it comes to taking care of dogs. I said that white girls seem pretty intimate with their dogs. She said that it's because white people see them as an accessory, like they used to see slaves.

Straight people don't know how to care for dogs. If they don't have kids, they spoil the dog like it's their kid. If they do, they neglect and abuse the dog.

She considers herself "queer" because she would fuck Madonna (past and modern.)

I used to live in an infamously rural and right-wing area. Loved it. Because I loved it and my closest friends are from there, I was brainwashed apparently. They do that. Just like in Get Out. It's almost a documentary, she said. She was surprised that I didn't get lynched.

I'm visiting Nebraska at some point. She thinks I'm going to get lynched.

Everyone in Southern states and Midwest states are KKK Nazis. Unless they're minorities. Then they're oppressed and enslaved.

A frequent customer is white, 25, single, and lives with his parents. She frequently mocks him the moment he leaves and it's okay because he probably brings his mom on dates with him and is probably a dickbag and that's why he can't get pussy. He's also probably racist and a nazi, like all single men.
