Encounters With SJWs/Tumblristas Offline or In Unusual Communities

Poland is an autistic country. It also keeps getting invaded repeatedly.

Also they apparently have a lot of trouble screwing in light bulbs.

I had a religion class in university with a Tumblr stereotype. She wore grandmother clothes, complete with bottle top glasses.

Every time she spoke up in class, she referred to the time she was raped (eg: "Being raped taught me that..." like bitch we are talking about the Aramaic language, sit down.)
She protested against a movie we watched because it was "triggering." Her only friend was this super flamboyant gay social activist.

So she threw a fit because a movie that had content she found upsetting was shown in class, but never considered that bringing up her rape constantly during unrelated topics might be upsetting for other people who have the misfortune of sharing a class with her?

You'd think with how often Tumblr types spout the misleading "1 in 5" rape stat they'd be more conscious of the possibility of other people who might be in class who have also might've been raped and would probably prefer to not have some Tumblr bint bring up the topic every 10 seconds... If the alleged rape even happened because it sounds like she was either using the subject of rape to fish for attention or to guarantee that people can't disagree with her without it being spun as "invalidating" her experience.

What was the movie?

 

[MetalParakeet]

What was the movie?

I can't remember. I think it was some matrix-esque film about alternate realities or something. If I remember correctly, the professor was using it to emphasize the grey area between right and wrong.

It was years ago though so I can't remember, but I know it had some big names in it


Edit: oh wait shit. It might have been that movie where people use robots to live life. They sit at home and use a virtual reality type thing to control robots out in the real world.

Psssh, of course not, all the other rape victims would applaud her for her bravery.

I went to the bar with her sjw gay buddy one night, got super drunk and admitted to him that I thought she was a ridiculous attention seeker.

Class got awkward after that

Awkward is good, awkward means these people never feel fully accepted for their bullshit. You're fighting the good fight.

Strangely enough, I have never actually met SJWs in school, maybe because I went to high school in the middle-late 2000's, before tumblr's rise to infamy popularity. Yes, we had social activists, but they were fairly civil and campaigned for real things, alongside being quite open and welcoming.
Despite being quite a right-winger, I was actually endeared by their campaigns and even got involved a little bit. That in my opinion should be the real definition of Social Justice: working together to abolish every form of ignorance, discrimination and hate. Today's SJWs do just that: they spread ignorance and misinformation, and advocate for hate and discrimination.
I had a female friend who was a feminist, and she used to campaign for serious things like the obvious sexism in our school uniforms and other social issues; and not the totally batshit insane more illustrious issues of "imaginary rape", otherkin problems and cultural appropriation.
If she still is half the serious person I knew, I think she is appalled by the bullshit current "feminists" are pulling.

It wasn't awkward for them. I don't think they had that level of self awareness. It was awkward for me because I knew my reaction enhanced their feelings of self importance, so they treated me like some inconsiderate rape apologist

I'm almost finished with uni and I have to take a "seminar" class as a capstone. I foolishly took "contempotary media" since it seemed less SJW than "Black Feelings" or "Native Americans and Boarding School".

Nope. Professor is a full on soyboy and all of the garbage we're discussing is tumblr-grade shit. We've got to go see Black Panther on our own dime, for one. The book we're currently reading is a bunch of soft-core "feminist" erotica by a sad-looking Latina lesbian. It's all utter, worthless tripe except for maybe one story. The book in question is described by the author as being "about the surreal horror of being queer or a woman," or "queer feminist ghost stories".

We watched some incredibly dull indie movie made by another sad lesbian and it didn't have a linear plot. One girl in my class said - I shit you not - that the traditional structure of a narrative (Hero's Journey; initiating event, rising action, climax, falling action, conclusion) conforms to the patriarchy because it is structured the same as a male orgasm.

Just for shits and giggles I asked her what exactly was male about an orgasm - she started to say that she thinks there are "variations" on a woman's orgasm but class ended and Professor Soyboy stopped her.

Oh gods. Not that old nonsense again, that anything with rising and peaks is rape culture. That's something that goes back to a Susan McClary in 1987, who claimed that Beethoven's 9th symphony is rape music. A good way of countering the "x is like an orgasm therefore RAPE CULTURE" canard is to round on them with righteous indignation and say that they are trivialising the lived experiences of real rape victims.

Seems to me, though, that Professor of Tumblr Studies here is threadworthy - after all, we have Kevin Allred, Professor of Beyoncé Studies, and Michael Isaacson, Professor of Feminist Economics. Get to capping his lectures already.

Thankfully I have not come across many, other than the obnoxious shouting college girls at midday around the town when lunch hits. However A few years ago I had a group of your typical Tumblr girls that frequented an old bar I used to work at. Coloured hair, patched up jackets and on the heavier side of the scale. Over the space of about 3 months that I was working there, two were removed for having sex in the ladies toilets, one was removed for abusing a very old man because, to my knowledge, he took a disliking to her swearing, one was banned from every venue in town for carrying an extremely large bag of weed into a pub down the road with intent to supply. And the final few would be an abysmal mess when they hit the spirits so the pubs collectively moved to get them banned from all venues and pubs in the town and surrounding towns.

Women are by and large the worst fucking thing when alcohol is involved. Your average Tumblr style girl makes things a tiny bit harder for reasons that people are already aware of.

He doesn't lecture, he just sits there and lets us talk. "Seminar".
The first thing we had to watch for the class was the new Marvel show "Legion". Everyone started talking about how problematic the portrayals of mental health are, how anti-therapy it is, how it portrays schizophrenia as a fun quirky thing. Professor Soyboy mentioned that in one scene a villain character uses genuine therapy techniques - "I mean, I've been in therapy enough to recognize them." Thanks for powerleveling, dude.

I (foolishly) said no, the show is about superheroes. Sure there is some mental health stuff but the whole point is that it is superheroes. The next class he went on a 10-minute passive lecture about how it was stupid and problematic to say it was about superheroes and not mental health. He never explicitly directed it at me or mentioned me but the whole thing directly related to that one comment.

Boo boo, if you take a show about superheroes and interpret it as "my mental health problem makes me special, I don't need therapy!" then that's on you. I may report back on class tomorrow (when we discuss the queer feminist ghost stories). Also, class participation is like 80% of your grade, so I can either (A.) speak my mind and be the class villain, (B.) spout the rhetoric back to them insincerely, or (C.) fail.

Surreptitious recording even?

Granted this is the first of a Legion series, so I don't know how it handles the character, but from what I remember of Legion he's meant to be an anti-hero at best and a straight up villain at worst since the entire point of his character is exploring how having extremely volatile powers mixed in with legit and severe mental health issues would be a terrifying combination.

Giving such a character an anti-therapy slant makes sense to driving that point home, and leaves room to explore how these mental health issues will effect both the character And his abilities. Just taking a quick peak at the behind the seems indicates that the showrunner had this in mind and describes the show as having Legion be an unreliable narrator, and that overarching plot is basically a villain origin, so it doesn't sound like these alleged "problematic" elements went unnoticed by the production team. Hell, they were probably even deliberate for the sake of the intended plot/themes that they'll likely to explore in more detail later.

But I forgot this is SJW logic; where portraying a bad thing = endorsing it.

It's weird how there are Sjws in lolicon circles.

These communities are largely defined by the belief that there is a distinct difference between fantasy and reality and a strong belief in free expression. Despite this, you'll find people in these communities preaching about wanting to ban problematic fiction that is destroying the world. Meanwhile, they'll turn a blind eye to the problematic fiction that they post everywhere and celebrate. If one does not believe these things and enjoys loli, they're basically saying that a pedophile so it's a very strange thing.


University is fun. Presented on the gender wage gap for some dumb GNED and I was followed up by a feminist slam poem on rape.

Well, you know how it is. Rich white SJWs know what brown people need/like/should be. What POCs need to do is just suspend their own judgment and let the rich white SJWs arrange their lives for them.

You know, the kind of thinking that went out of style sometime around 1860.

1860? You don't find much diversity in communist governments for a reason. It's all based around the "we know best" idea.

Is it because women can have multiple orgasms? Some more intense than others?

Maybe she's onto something. We need more movies with multiple climaxes.

The other fake ones, maybe.

If we've learned anything here, it's that the more vocal you are about having been raped, the less likely it is that you were actually raped.

 

[Jetstream Sam]

I had a really fuckin' weird one around Christmas two years ago. I brought my dog into a Target that allowed pets, and this very old lady in a wheelchair rolled up to me and asked me why I had the dog. I said because I'm allowed to and he's my buddy. She proceeded to rant at me saying something along the lines of "no there's food in here, and you just don't care about bringing in an animal because you're so white and privileged, people like you make me sick" then she wheeled off. Staff apologized, I laughed because it's kinda funny when people assume stupid shit like that.

But apparently she was following me, and while I was walking to checkout, she rolls by and says "you'd probably shoot a 3-year-old". I ended up laughing at her and saying "relax bitch" and apparently that triggered her more because "HOW DARE YOU USE THAT KIND OF LANGUAGE REEEE" while I just said "hey, it's way ruder to say someone would kill a kid because they brought a DOG into a store that allowed it". Eventually she lost steam because I just kept smirking at her and not feeding into whatever was up her ass. She rolls off saying "at least I don't bring my dog places!" It was bizarre as fuck.
