Eastern Europeans use English to up their status in society. In my country, retards mix English and Slavic language to sound smarter or cooler, or whatever the fuck. They fucking love using -isms.

When I mentioned White Nationalism earlier, people seem to think I mean the 4th Reich. No, I'm talking about white people being vilified for their skin, banding together out of necessity and becoming aggressive as a response to constant threats. I'm talking about white people wanting to live in their own area and be left alone, which will not be tolerated. So white people will continue to be demonized with reasonable limits to this toxic discourse being ignored out of fear of offending POC (which is racist in of itself, but I digress). This will be the new White Nationalism: White people who don't wish harm on anyone, fed up with being treated poorly, banding together out of necessity. They'll be identified as Nazis and charged with crimes they wouldn't commit, leading to warfare that will drive both sides into depravity. It's fucking depressing.

You mean the motte-and-bailey? You start with something simple, i.e. racism is bad
Then you move to something more extreme, we have to limit rights to stop racism
And when people attack that particular part you fall back, "don't you agree that racism is bad?"

Sorta. It's more like this.

I feel like every single term in social justice terminology has a totally unobjectionable and obviously important meaning – and then is actually used a completely different way.

The closest analogy I can think of is those religious people who say “God is just another word for the order and beauty in the Universe” – and then later pray to God to smite their enemies. And if you criticize them for doing the latter, they say “But God just means there is order and beauty in the universe, surely you’re not objecting to that?”

The result is that people can accuse people of “privilege” or “mansplaining” no matter what they do, and then when people criticize the concept of “privilege” they retreat back to “but ‘privilege’ just means you’re interrupting women in a women-only safe space. Surely no one can object to criticizing people who do that?”

…even though I get accused of “privilege” for writing things on my blog, even though there’s no possible way that could be “interrupting” or “in a women only safe space”.

When you bring this up, people just deny they’re doing it and call you paranoid.

When you record examples of yourself and others getting accused of privilege or mansplaining, and show people the list, and point out that exactly zero percent of them are anything remotely related to “interrupting women in a women-only safe space” and one hundred percent are “making a correct argument that somebody wants to shut down”, then your interlocutor can just say “You’re deliberately only engaging with straw-man feminists who don’t represent the strongest part of the movement, you can’t hold me responsible for what they do” and continue to insist that anyone who is upset by the uses of the word “privilege” just doesn’t understand that it’s wrong to interrupt women in safe spaces.

I have yet to find a good way around this tactic.

Basically, SJWs have two definitions for words -- one that they use, and one that most normal people use. If you object to one, they retreat to the other definition. They also use it offensively, for example calling you a racist (when they mean "you're white" or "you're white and don't hate yourself") and let everyone else assume they meant "you hate people based on their race."

Of course, there's also the infamous redefining of racism to mean "power + prejudice," which means you cannot be racist if you're not white. You can only be prejucided against others, and that's ok for blacks to be, because fuck whitey.


There's also ESR's infamous, and very spot on, Kafkatrap:

Kafkatrapping

Good causes sometimes have bad consequences. Blacks, women, and other historical out-groups were right to demand equality before the law and the full respect and liberties due to any member of our …
esr.ibiblio.org

Both are post-modernist logical fallacies that stem from the fact that the woke take their own being correct as self evident truth, and any and all contradictions to that is just you -- a heretic -- trying to corrupt and deceive the faithful. I.e., them.

I love one of those responses "get your privilege out of here, we want equal rights" All the while not being an equal opportunity for other ethnicity's business. That said, I'm sure black owned is going to essentially translate to "Not white" owned.

I'm loving the white privilege of being vilified based on my skin color.

"You're a privileged racist!" said the black college kid whose parents make 200k+ a year to a white homeless guy in front of Pizza Hut.

So COVID has an average incubation of 4-5 days and no spike has been seen yet. The protests started over a week ago now in Minneapolis. The max incubation is 2 weeks but if there was going to be a spike we should have already started to see it.

It’ll be interesting to see how it affects transmission. the 4-5 days is just to the start of symptoms, people dont usually get severely ill until day 8-14 onwards. You usually need a couple of weeks to see the effects of an event.
The incredible hypocrisy of putting everyone under house arrest one week and sending them out to riot the next.

Incredible also to see the mayor of D.C. trying to chuck the NG out when there’s a direct threat to the White House. It really is using an event to start a rebellion. They know they can’t get trump out at the ballot box so they’re trying to force a coup. It’s just astonishing to watch this happen. 2020 is wild.

Even still that's no joke to organise and the orgs setting it up would've had to have some serious collusion together for them to even think of announcing some giant protest. For them to even pull the trigger on this they had to be reasonably sure they'd get a huge turn out and I just wonder wht made them so sure.

Most of the corporate shillposts look the same too. Black/grey background, centered white/grey text, usually ending with something like "we're listening." Makes me think the same financial or legal firms are advising them all to do it in a very templated way.

So now that we're at the point of a million person protest happening does anyone still believe this wasn't planned far in advance?

i was convinced when none of the politicians acknowledge anything. They wanted this shit to be chaotic to get trump to use the army, but he didn’t take the bait, so now they are everything they can to get thier puppets to go after monuments & more importantly the White House, it’s probably why the dc mayor is trying to get trump to move the extended forces out of dc. They are trying to make it so anti fa can walk in unopposed. And I don’t think the plan is to legit take the White House. No, they are trying to force trump’s hand in killing civilians

Dude is screaming at them alone. If he has a gun it's finished for them, should they decide to attack.

A man has got to know his limitations.

I'd say one who's willing to go all in against a mob of beta antifucks is well aware of his, and they're lucky he didn't liquify any within reach.

The man looked like he had no cause or desire to bring a gun into a good fistfight. It's really too bad they didn't oblige.

It's starting to show up in numbers in some states. Florida had a story out of orlando..some younger people who attended rallies early on have started coming down with it and had to be hospitalized.

They are anticipating a major surge. And with a death rate of 5%...lots will die I predict

(Yes its fucking 5% recovery rate..go to world o meter)
