the usual culprits who are pussying out and are mad at being called out on their behaviour.
This shit doesn't help. It also reeks of "mindreading," where you act like you know what's in their minds. How are they being pussies, and why are you taking credit for making them "mad?" Your whole main post and attitude in it just comes across as acting like you're better than the people you don't like. Which, again, is not helpful, especially given that, as I said, I think some of your core points do have merit.
I'm not being annoyed at you or anything on this particular point because I know you're actually one of the more reasonable ones around here...
Thanks, but it's also a bit of a backhanded compliment, and continues the trend of attacking everyone you disagree with. Me? I'm "actually one of the more reasonable ones," unlike...those people! Why not just stop caring what other people think, and say your piece? There are plenty of people I disagree with here, I don't feel the need to make threads calling them out. Sometimes people disagree, sometimes they downvote, sometimes I'd even say it's unfair. But I can coexist with people, even if sometimes they act like assholes.
...but I feel like I have to just clarify my position of hating both the TERFs and the trans activists.
Nah, wasn't talking about you.
I find it remarkable that the right seems to now be actively trying to court TERFs and are attacking the trannies from the left which is such a right wing thing to do and why I mock them regularly. You see this tactic being frequently used by mainstream conservatives in the UK.
Yup, and it fully deserves mockery. "Conservatives" acting like they care deeply about women's sports is peak cringe, and really stupid. They keep courting out and out liberals to criticize the trannies, when all you have to do is stick to your guns and defend reality; men are men, women are women. But they can't help but dip into the cringe, "oh, this liberal agrees with me, that must mean I'm right!" Yuck.
It's stupid, and incredibly damaging to the right. The right can ally with TERFs on the occasional issue, but the right needs to stop adopting their beliefs. TERFs are not our friends, and the only thing I'm guaranteed to agree with them on is that women and men are distinct and different. Anything past that point is up in the air, and I'm certainly not going to fit my beliefs around theirs just because they agree with me on one single issue.
Here though? It looks like the usual culprits have come out of the woodwork to prove my point. Kind of confirms my suspicion that it's the exact same bunch that's following me around on threads I post on and being weirdos.
Oh man, I get so tired of this. So many users here with minority views act like there's some big conspiracy against them. For the record, I have nothing against you, but this attitude stinks. Did it occur to you that maybe, just maybe, you and other users here end up on the same threads? I could be wrong, but I don't think anyone is following you around.
it's funny how you say I'm just complimenting people who agree with me.
Not sure what you mean by that, I never said that.
You can't be polite with them and you can't reason with them
Sure you can, with a bit of tact. Acting like they're subhuman retards and you're better than them doesn't really work though.
Also, I absolutely encourage you to try and have a disagreement with them so I can have a laugh, they'll probably treat you exactly the same.
I have disagreed with them. Sometimes they're assholes, sometimes it's fine. You also put a target on your back when you make threads complaining about them or - and I'm not saying you do this, but others certainly do - call them "stormfags" and the like. That just gets old and is, ironically, the very "SJW mindset" you're talking about. Plenty of the people "targeted" by the "right wing SJWs" started shit first by being assholes. Both sides can be assholes, but often the people on the one side don't realize their own side is also being assholes.
I think you're reading too much into a "them" vs "you" mindset. I've had a few disagreements with more prudish sorts on here too, as have others. It's a subset fraction that you'll find in both political wings, each camp holding to their own kind of reasoning.
I try not to get overly focused on it on here though. Plus I know that a fair number of people, even on here, aren't entirely on board with that kind of hardline stance. And at least at this juncture it's not really worth getting into drawn out brawls with those hardliners over petty disagreements.
