"Conservapedia On Feminism" or "BACK IN THE KITCHEN, WOMAN!"

[MSperoni]

I'm already getting there, Snake.

...Matt that picture is almost perfect, but despite your increasing adherence to Judeo-Christian norms your subconscious liberal bias is still showing a tad.

I mean the sandwich and the outfit are great touches, but she's still smoking a cigarette.
And we all know that God only lets men smoke cigarettes. They're a masculine sign of independence and 'coolness,' and we can't let women usurp that without doing serious damage to our assigned gender roles.

So I'd like to helpfully recommend you alter her cigarette into a lollipop.
All you have to do is take the smoke out, and it will fit!

Ya know, I was interested in actually hearing what he had to say and not immaturely dismissing and mocking him for several pages.

For fucks sake! That is EXACTLY the horseshit that gets us up in arms about people like Beck and Palin and their Ilk, but we are just turning around and doing it right back? That makes it better? That makes us better?

Fuck.


What part of this has ever worked to get anyone to see the flaws in their reasoning, the cracks in their beliefs? How do you reach a person and bridge the gap between their views and yours, to bring better understanding, if the first step you take is towards "LOL, I'm gonna pretend to agree with him but everyone knows I am making fun of him and it'll be funny because I have the maturity of a 5 year old".

I'm sure that's what won over our previously super-conservative members. Not the reasoned arguments, the evidence, the logical discussions that forced them to take harder and harder looks at what they truely believed. It was the childish mocking and half-assed straw men.

In reality it seems the very people that claim to be better are just as bad as those they would look down on

I'm not dismissing him at all. I'm defending his viewpoints and discouraging others from dogpiling on him. Don't let the actions of a few posters color your view of the rest of us, Marc. Why are you so upset?

Uh no the horseshit that gets us up in arms about Beck and Palin is when they constantly lie and demagogue in support of racism, homophobia, misogyny, and plain-old misanthropy in order to advance a policy and philosophy that destroys people's lives and the fabric of our society.

Not really sure why you're getting that confused with, you know, internet sarcasm, but yeah they are really not the same thing at all.

Uh yes Marc, it was basically exactly that.

Hey, can you tell me again how much you hate those transgenders, Liz? And how horrific it is that you think that they could defile their body like that, and how they ought to all burn in hell? You had a huge, like, five paragraph rant about it, and I can't remember it properly. It was in a news thread, a few months back.

The thread got locked, before I could argue against it, but now you're going on and making yourself look like the good guys here, and really I had a ton wrong with it. If you could remind me exactly what your problems with them are, I'd be much obliged.

I'm just not sure why Marc had to bring direct insults into this lighthearted and friendly discussion.

[MSperoni]

According to Liz's Twitter page, I'm pretty sure transgender people are made of Legos.

I'm not sure where you're getting any of this from, RPG. Even when I'm condemning things I think are bad, I am always an exemplary model of civility and well-mannered behavior.
