Encounters With SJWs/Tumblristas Offline or In Unusual Communities

But for bands with smaller followings, it's just considered kind of tacky or just a faux pas. Like, usually you wear a band t-shirt to say you're a fan of the band. If you're at the show already, it's assumed that you are a fan, so wearing the shirt is just kind of redundant.

In my experience, (mostly in the metal scene) it's considered tacky for a band member to wear a shirt with their band logo on it. It's perfectly fine for fans at the show to do so, and makes the musicians happy.
 
- Apparently her beef with capitalism is that "it's not nice."
I used to be overly critical of capitalism and money myself years ago. However, while capitalism and money may be abused sometimes, we're not going to get a utopian society where no one works for financial gain anytime soon in this world.
 
My sister is actually unfortunately big into the whole stupid scene. Big fan of Doctor Who and Sherlock...she refers to herself on her tumblr as a "self proclaimed Anglophile," but fortunately doesn't seem to have any "kin" or "headmates" or made up pronouns. She's big into the idea that white men are responsible for all the evil throughout the history of the world...she's always been an upper middle class white American girl and our dad paid for her college, which she repaid him for by becoming a raving SJ psycho. He seems to enjoy it, though, because he's always deliberately pushing her buttons to make her freak out.

She claims you can't trust the dictionary because it was written by white men. "Racism is power+privilege." Rape culture, patriarchy, all that. She does little else besides smoke pot and complain about how she makes no money and America sucks and is just the worst and how England and Australia are so much better in every way, and how when she gets enough money she's going to live "Literally anywhere but here...or Asia...or Africa...or South America...or Eastern Europe...or Western Europe..." She'll bend over backwards to blame America for anything and absolve its enemies of anything. Our discussion on the A-Bomb was essentially her saying it was unreasonable of America to demand unconditional surrender and we should have made whatever concessions the Japanese wanted to avoid dropping the bomb.

One time I let her borrow a DVD box set of mine and when she returned it after a year, she had completely destroyed the first disc. When I said she should replace it...not even the whole thing, just the $10 first disc she ruined...she freaked out and screamed and took to Tumblr to bitch about how it was my fault and why didn't I replace it myself, because I lived at home and what expenses could I have? When I pointed out that she also lived at home and had literally no expenses outside of the enormous amounts of pot she smoked, that I had to pay for my car, car insurance, student loans, phone bill, insurance, and anything else I wanted, she replied by saying she needed the money more because how else would she afford her six month to a year long vacation in Australia?

Oh and she's 25.

Let us know how she reacts after she arrives here and gets called a cunt before she's even left the airport. If there's one thing strayans love it's saying "cunt" and "nigger" around fussy Americans, and then convincing them to eat vegemite.
 
My roommate is sort of in the SJW vein. She's a really sweet girl, but I try not to talk to her much because the things she says are pretty cringe-worthy.

- I'm going to business school, because I'm at a point in my life where I really just need to get a degree that will let me support myself. When I told her this, she said, "I guess that could be important in our materialist society." Of course, she's majoring in art and minoring in gender studies.
- Claims to hate capitalism, but I think it's more like she hates any form of economy that, you know, actually requires people to be productive and stuff, because that's mean. For some reason thinks that only capitalism is like this???
- Apparently her beef with capitalism is that "it's not nice."
With no offense intended to anyone here, I have noticed that the level of criticism leveled at capitalism seems inversely proportional to a person's success in a capitalist society. People with a good set of job skills, a degree with real applications, and a solid resume they worked hard to build seem content with the system. Meanwhile, people who focused solely on disciplines like gender studies and philosophy, and whose skills consist of "blunt rolling", seem conveniently critical of it. I'm not claiming that it's a perfect system, but I do notice the tendency to wax philosophical on the evils of materialism when you haven't the means to indulge in it yourself.
No, capitalism isn't nice. It's rather like life in that respect. And unfortunately, life doesn't favor people who's primary function in society is language policing and whining about oppression.
 
My sister (a white, upper middle-class, heterosexual, cisgendered, feminist, ethical vegan) is definitely a SJ but I wouldn't call her a warrior in that she doesn't usually sperg out about social justice things. In 2010 she did take a fairly noticeable turn - for some reason we were discussing how eating insects wasn't kosher (we're an apathetically Christian family) and I apparently made the worst joke ever.

"Of course eating insects isn't kosher. Jews are shape shifting insectoids from Jupiter so that would be cannibalism."

I intended it to be a joke so ridiculous that'd you would see it made fun of anti-semites more than Jews but I got BTFO for being a racist instead. Five years later and we're on friendly-ish terms but we're not close like we used to be. Can't help but think that was the final straw that broke us apart. Fuck everything.
 
I went to a different college than my group of friends. And one of the girls in the group turned pretty SJW, being one of the few girls, everyone else followed. I met up with them a few months later and they spent the whole time talking about "shitty attitudes" and privilege.

Really weird to see people I spent 5 years with go pretty crazy in 5 months.
Funny thing is they've isolated me recently because I am joining the Canadian Forces, and therefore I am somehow oppressing them by working for the Patriarchy!

On the bright side I doubt there will be any SJWs in the Forces

SJWs do not understand satire. Which is why it is important.

I know the feeling, I played Cards Against Humanity with my friends after their adoption of SocJus and I used the 'passable transvestitites' card. Everyone was like "oh my god, how could you use that, it's so bad", "I meant to take that card out and throw it away". Apparently Tumblr had a big thing about the card and how offensive it was. I asked them how this one card is taken seriously whilst the rest aren't in a game about offending people, and they told me I don't understand because I've never seen or faced what trans people do. After that I sort of kept my distance.

I'm still in shock that they removed a card for being offensive. In a game about offending people.

Good luck with the Canadian Forces, dude - we must defend the patriarchy to its last breath for the sole reason that we apparently just hate women for some undisclosed reason.

Somebody posted a picture of themselves burning the card, and it spread around enough to get a reaction from the creators.

A similar thing happened when the "chunks of dead prostitute" card got changed to "chunks of dead hitchhiker."

I recently played Cards Against Humanity and they not only did that but also added a bunch of things that SJWs/Tumblrites would find funny. It was significantly less funny playing the game with people unfamiliar with Tumblr/SJWs because they didn't get any of it. It's not as funny as it was a few years ago.

It's ridiculous how they caved into censorship.

A sizable portion of my LGBT friends were discussing this when it happened and at first they were all "Good for them!" and I was all "Wait, how is that one phrase offensive in and of itself? Besides, isn't the whole point of the game to be offensive to pretty much everyone?" and because they are not assholes their response was "Huh. Yeah, I guess you're right."

The ideal economy is the one in which you get one shekel for yelling "check your privilege!", and two if you yell "die cis scum".

And doctors do gender reassignments for free.

A theme that they constantly try to drill into people's head is "making comedy based around a disadvantaged group is bad comedy." Basically they only want to laugh at straight white men...even if all the comedy is told by them mostly...

The whole premise was you sit down and say ridiculous shit you don't mean to get the best reaction. I actually found the post @Meowthkip was talking about and the caption reads "DOWN WITH TRANSPHOBIA", but still no changes to the cards "the unstoppable tide of Islam" despite the fact it infers Islam is 100% terrorists.

I think what bothered me the most is that transvestites are not transgender.

Being a transvestite is merely dressing as the opposite sex. They're still cis. The card is just saying that they're skilled enough to be passable.

This is entry level LGBT stuff.
 
Those familiar with my postings in the Gamergate thread might be familiar with my call-out towards Margaret Pless, AKA Idlediletante, who is doing promo work for Crash Override Network on DailyKos. For the unfamiliar, Pless herself was remarkably civil in response. He lackeys, however.... Well.

I haven't been banned, but as of this post, Idlediletante's lackeys (curiously, not idlediletante herself) have successfully hide-rate barraged me off of posting privileges on Dkos. Mostly calling me a Concern Troll and SECRET NAZI RIGHT WINGER OMG JIAMIS IS LITERALLY HITLAR.

I genuinely hate the term "hugbox," working with Autistic children IRL and all, but fuck, these people make the term a thing.

Pless is better than your average anti-GGer but still demonstrably a fucking lying hypocrite and the followers of her are the biggest group of proud-to-be-ignorant dolts I've ever encountered in my 20 or so years of political activism. I genuinely have found myself not fucking understanding the thought process these people use. Post a simple post explaining they're wrong, or post photographic evidence that directly contradicts them, they accuse you of either fabricating it or "YOU'RE WRONG BECAUSE I SAY YOU ARE, SHUT UP." Cite a source that isn't from their "approved" pile, and you're accused of being in bed with the enemy because HOW DARE YOU REFERENCE ANYTHING FROM THE RIGHT GODDAMNIT. Write a paragraph debunking them entirely, and they're all "LOL DIDN'T READ THE FACT THAT YOU MAKE LONG POSTS DOESN'T MAKE U SMRTER."

It's fucking baffling.

I've had fucking conversations with religious neocons that aren't as fucking repetitive and one-sided as my average encounter with these people. The nanosecond they face ANY disagreement, it's full-blown lockdown mode. Circle the wagons, PURGE THE HERETIC, and, without exception, use any response, no matter how vile, reprehensible, or immoral, to achieve their goals. At least when I've argued with fucking Neocons, they at least had the presence of mind to acknowledge that their opponents had some solid points to make. I had one religious crazy who was stealing my political signs from the front yard, and that guy wasn't as bad as these people, since he was legit scared that the town board guy it supported getting in would mean a multitude of book store closures.

Fucking hell. I need booze.
