This motherfucker just stirrs stupid shit up every year
before anyone else says it: chocolate covered bananas why on earth is this being rated dumb? I thought FP hated this guy
"Up here i feel like PewDiePie. Except i don't suck." As far as i can tell, PewDiePie is annoying, not a sexist pig.
didnt pewdiepie make rape jokes or something

I hope this thread doesn't blow up into a huge, awful argument.
The Amazing Atheist, like always, has some good points and is sort of correct, but he is such a vile and unlikable man and he crams a shit load of [i]"YOU ARE WRONG YOU SACKS OF SHIT"[/i] into his opinions that it becomes impossible to take the man seriously. If he were to just attempt to be respectful of other people and their views, I wouldn't have so much of a problem with him. [QUOTE=U.S.S.R;40774368]I hope this thread doesn't blow up into a huge, awful argument.[/QUOTE] It will.
the amazing atheist is a dumb toolbag and i wish he'd just shut the fuck up forever
can't we all just get along and accept that others are ignorant and try to peacefully and kindly educate them instead of loathing them for their lack of knowledge and understanding [sp]guys stop laughing[/sp]

It makes you seem like you're not capable of providing a level-headed debate and have to resort to swearing to make your point. It's why I can't stand The Amazing Atheist or Penn & Teller.
[QUOTE=Araknid;40774872]No, Pew just makes terrible jokes.[/QUOTE] I like the direction this thread is going. Facepunch doesn't rant about the elephant in the room enough in my opinion. Mostly because no one's suicidal enough to actually post one of his videos here.
You know, as far as actually achieving a point goes, picking the argument you want to dismantle from youtube isn't exactly the highest common denominator. I just want to say that I live with and have know plenty of people who believe in "feminism" just because it's a form of advocating for women. If I go by them and their personalities, it's not radical to the point of stupidity at all. It really just means looking out for your friends who have a vagina and trying to do justice by them.
He seems to think that all feminists are the "men are biological mistakes" type
^^This. Also, unlike the amazing douche i do think that model agencies scouting for models outside anorexia clinics is probably bad... [editline]25th May 2013[/editline] Also is he justifying paying women less than men? ....???? [editline]25th May 2013[/editline] Also, feminism as a term has expanded to be so broad that today it literally can be translated to mean "those who oppose sexual domination and oppression." And yes, by this definition everyone should be feminists.
The amazing atheist is one of the most amazing things that happened to YouTube. He can not give a fuck and stay renegade while having very good arguments, something that's very rare. The people that hate on him are complete morons. the people who dislike him because of that Banana incident should watch this.

Sharon ozborune and Anita sarkeesian are just a few who are leading this man hating cult who call themselves Feminists, but they are actually using the term feminist to cover their real fucked up sexist ideology.

Two things 1.) I don't think you can find any evidence of, even using your own two examples, of those two women saying anything close to "Women are better than men" or "I hate men" that isn't seriously out of context. 2.) Feminism as a philosophy, first and foremost, is about ending sexual domination. That is why the policies being proposed by feminist groups today are about ending sexism in the workplace... or... hindering the international sex trade... or... fighting domestic violence. lol, are you trolling?

Atleast I understand where are these people coming from, thank you.
[QUOTE=Doodle313;40775658]You're the troll, I watched every single video made by that lunatic, Anita is retarded, if you're not going to watch the videos, don't bother replying.[/QUOTE] Comma splice. I've already seen that dude's video; you're a little late to the party. His main issue is that he assumes that Anita thinks that sexism is something intentionally done.... which is often not the case. As subjects of male privilege we will often say sexist things without thinking it through, or we may have been raised unquestioning certain sexist thoughts or assumptions. Game makers probably don't intentionally go out of their way to subjugate women, but when the portrayal of women in video games is often so one-dimensional, that is where feminist criticism comes into play. Here is a good example: that quote "Women and Children First!" looks good in theory, right? Who doesn't wanna protect the weak and vulnerable?.... But under further inspection it becomes clear that this saying relegates women to a childlike status, it compares being a woman to being a child (god forbid the child is also a girl.) Feminism doesn't say "Let the women drown!" it says "Hey, if you wanna save a lady go ahead, but don't place them a rung bellow a ladder when you do it." If you disagree with that statement you are probably a sexist.

Yeah TAA is a douche, but that doesn't mean he can't have some very good points. Like that "it's only sexist when men do it" video he made a while back.
