NUll's post in the roderick thread discussion

[DNJACK]

Gender is not just look&feel. DrFanta.

If it walks and talks and looks like a woman, then I see no reason its not a woman. Or viceversa versa. Why are people so hung up on continuing to use pronouns that are no longer accurate descriptors? To anyone who sees Cox, she is female. Even a hot female. So by calling her a man it really is just confusing and inherently incorrect, except for her past. Its just misleading.

Laughing at lolcows for being spergs is very different than being intolerant of people who are only trying to be true to themselves and not doing anything wrong or spergalicious.

Like, lol that black guy is funny cuz he black vs. Lol that black guy funny cuz he masturbates to MLP and makes rage videos when people criticize his fetish.

Im happy to poke fun at spergs, but just because you got a sex change doesn't mean you are inherently a sperg. That kinda hate belongs in a different forum, imo.

I just like how this discussion is inevitably... we need lines here! (draws chalkline around transself)

This whole thing is inherently crossing the line of what's moral. It's not right to laugh at people.

Im not DrFanta but we do share a last name!

 

[AnOminous]

Yes it does.

Oh yeah? Well, just because you're autistic doesn't mean you're a bad person who should be beaten up.

Back on topic people.

I'm as left-leaning as they come, but I think getting all butthurt over this shit is kinda like getting your knickers in a twist because people throw around "nigger" & "faggot" on imageboards. It used to really rustle my jimmies, but I learned to just roll my eyes & move on. While I don't think that Cox is a lolcow, that could always change. After all, we've had countless people who've had threads made about them that didn't seem like they'd be lolcow material, & then they chimped out & proved everyone wrong.

I wish all the infighting would stop, though. But it's just one of those things that'll happen anywhere.

 

[creamyfanta]

I liked writing stupid limericks about lolcows instead of fighting. Can we just do that and agree to disagree?


I can make one about pixy next

Here's the deal. At least once every day someone types up some edgy try hard story about how they would love to see whichever lolcow they hate get what's coming to them. They talk about how Nick Bate deserves to get butt fucked to death, or how Chris needs to go to prison for 20 years for using pepper spray, or how Vade needs to cut herself/himself/itself/whofuckingcaresself too deep during a self harm episode. Entire threads revolve around engaging with cows in conversation and laughing at them when they respond by saying they are the smartest "&/or" the funniest.

In other words, this forum isn't about being nice to people. It's about laughing at people who are different. More importantly people who are different and funny because of it. If you don't think that disrespecting pronouns is funny then don't participate. No one cares.

I personally didn't see anything funny about the person, and as a consequence, I didn't post in the thread. The ensuing madness, however, was funny, if only because it was confusing and honestly very telling. People think that this is some safe harbor where everyone agrees and we all get along and no one hates anything or anyone. But that's stupid, and anyone over twelve knows that.

For fuck's sake stop creating drama you sped. What we don't need is infighting between forum members. What the hell made you think this comment was pertinent in any way?

It would be rather boring if everyone got a long. What matters is how dissenting opinions is handled. How dissent is handled is very reflective of a given community.

I didn't post in the original thread because it was way too long, but I think 330 posts of "this should be closed" is way too many. I don't think that celebrities are lolcows, but that's my opinion. The thing that I really wanted to say as a Wikipedian with a few thousand edits is that Cox's edits to Wikipedia are not atypical. Most people start editing because they see that something that they're close to is wrong in their opinion. And I've seen much, MUCH worse promotional and/or angry edits, as a new article approver.

Null is fat.

And sassy

Now I get why he has n-word privileges.

Turns out Null was Cox the whole time.

 

[PeteyCoffee]

But why does that matter? He represents the staff of a website dedicated to watching a retarded manchild collapse in on himself like a dying sun. This website isn't some big huge hub of all kinds of people, it's a very niche market that only assholes enjoy. People shouldn't go to an asshole website and then get picky about what everyone is allowed to be assholes about.

This is how I see it.

From their point of view I'm an asshole - because they disapprove of my point of view. But actually I'm honest, I'm just, and I'm reasonable, so they're the assholes.

To agree with what someone has to say about you is to submit to that person's point of view. It can often be a good thing to submit to a person who is honest, just, and reasonable. But to ever submit to the dishonest, the unjust, the unreasonable is unhealthy. (Edit - I don't think you're an asshole, and I don't think this is an asshole website!)

On the other hand, if the act of candidly sharing how you feel about people makes you an asshole in some very general sense - then, everyone in the world is either an asshole or a bullshitter; the virtuous are among the assholes.

 

[PeteyCoffee]

Problem is, not everyone thinks it's "fun" to read 20+ pages of shit when you're actually trying to make a point in that thread or trying to understand what the fuck is going on.

But the people who do think it's a riot.

 

[Trombonista]

It took me less than a day to realize the Laverne Cox thread was bait to exploit the Featured system, so I just started bumping other threads. Does this make me the least autistic member of the forum, or the most autistic?
