[QUOTE=thisispain;43254591]Dear Facepunch forum viewer, thank you so much for getting back to me! Yes, I can concede that, and I will take it as a compliment. Thank you for your sympathy and recognition in that I am trying my best to have a conversation which is so rudely interrupted by the persons or otherwise that you have mentioned. I can only, in good faith, assume they simply just don't understand their own actions. liebe fur alle, t-pain[/QUOTE] what
[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;43260432]The only thing that will change anyone's views is thoughtful discussion. Deliberately provoking people just makes them think you're a nutter.[/QUOTE] I'd buy this as a title for him if I wasn't broke due to Christmas. Constant reminder of how shitty his posts are. [editline]wait[/editline] Damnit, Boostar cuts of the last 1/4'th bit of the text, apparently there's a set limit on title length now.
Buying titles is clearly the best thing to do to get your point across. Sincerely yours, Misandrist
[QUOTE=person11;43262447]Buying titles is clearly the best thing to do to get your point across. Sincerely yours, Misandrist[/QUOTE] If shitposts and Ad Hominem en masse are valid ways of arguing, then why not titles? :rolleyes:

[QUOTE=Viper202;43262595]You [I]still[/I] haven't gotten over that have you.[/QUOTE] He doesn't like when his own shit is being used against him.
[QUOTE=O Cheerios O;43262610]He doesn't like when his own shit is being used against him.[/QUOTE] What no that's not even close to my point. He bring it up every chance he get's as if it's relevant and it screams butt hurt. [editline]21st December 2013[/editline] Hell I agree that his quote wasn't misogyny at all and I was on the opposing side in that thread.
I was just trying to be funny, I don't care about my title. I'm just saying it doesn't help one get points across. Instead of insults or shitposts one needs to explain ones points and argue them.
[QUOTE=person11;43263357]I was just trying to be funny, I don't care about my title.[/QUOTE] lol no one cares shut up cracker
[QUOTE=Diet Kane;43263733]lol no one cares shut up cracker[/QUOTE] woah there tpain you better step the fuck down
[QUOTE=soulharvester;43258740]It's that same policy that causes many people to stop taking such people seriously. And when you constantly label all men "oppressors" it loses the power in the word, you guys already killed the word "misogyny"'s power.[/QUOTE] not really. this is the only reason why these movements have survived. [QUOTE=Zyler;43259071]There are many people who are either extremely conservative or liberal who seem like they would never change their fundamental beliefs no matter what. Psychologists have actually discovered that the fundamental principles we learn as children are actually hardwired into our brains, you cannot force someone to change those principles, only make them reconsider them and realign them with their current world view. Brainwashing is obviously a different story, because if you can break someone down into their most basic elements you can make them believe anything.[/QUOTE] "hardwiring" doesn't exist in the brain because there is no wiring in the brain. there are connections between neurons, but those connections change as neurons die, reproduce, and as new information is learned. so lodi dodi if people's beliefs are "hardwired" in from a young age. you break that "wiring" through exposing people to new beliefs.
[QUOTE=yawmwen;43264295] so lodi dodi if people's beliefs are "hardwired" in from a young age. you break that "wiring" through exposing people to new beliefs.[/QUOTE] Nope. You break that "wiring" by convincing people that your beliefs are somehow better than what they had previously. Note: not "right". [b]Better[/b], for actual reasons. Better for them, for their family, for something they care about. And being obnoxious about your beliefs doesn't help, obviously. "I have this new idea, here, I'll rub it all over your face, do you agree with it? If you don't, you're a faggot" doesn't work, it never did. Unless you're someone of considerable autority in the first place, but that's diffirent story.

[/quote] that's why along with getting public exposure radical feminists have been doing stuff like community organization against rape and fostering safe spaces in neighborhoods.

[QUOTE=thisispain;43257916]honestly id try to never say all white males are oppressors because i dont think it communicates much as a statement[/QUOTE] That statement is basically tumblrsjw.txt and isn't a real thing. You are a dick to people because you are a dick, not because you are white and male. I'm white and male and I support feminists and anti racism stuff but if tumblr had it's way, I'd be brutally murdered. The people who say that sort of thing are just as bad as the people they claim to hate.

If you don't, you're a faggot" doesn't work, it never did. Unless you're someone of considerable authority in the first place, but that's different story.[/QUOTE] [b]good thing nobody does that.[/b][/QUOTE] Don't know if satire or actually a participant of FacePunch stand-up comedy night, but either way that had me in stitches.
[QUOTE=Mingebox;43256800]"Oppression" kind of loses it's effect when it can mean anything from being stoned for adultery to the female Angry Bird being pink.[/QUOTE] the female angry bird being pink is not an example of oppression at all. stop trying to take arguments about something completely different in order to devalue another argument. i (hopefully) doubt that i need to give you an example of [I]real[/I] oppression. it's an example of how gender roles are fucking dumb and how for some reason artists like game developers (and the people who consume it) need to see pink, a bow, or high heels in order to identify a game characters' gender. [editline]21st December 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=O Cheerios O;43262515]If shitposts and Ad Hominem en masse are valid ways of arguing, then why not titles? :rolleyes:[/QUOTE] i dunno dude, if you're better than person11 with all his childish rebuttals, why would you guys stoop down to his level and do something retarded like spend your hard-earned cash on a title to "show him!!!" fighting garbage-tier actions with other garbage-tier actions isn't the way to go.
[QUOTE=O Cheerios O;43267011]Don't know if satire or actually a participant of FacePunch stand-up comedy night, but either way that had me in stitches.[/QUOTE] oh wait i guess i was wrong about nobody doing that. because you're doing that right now lol

Oh that! Okay let's return to topic. We where somewhere near name calling I think?

[QUOTE=yawmwen;43269557]am i gonna get featured?[/QUOTE] Totes dude.
Okay so what I don't get is why Beyonce's new album being released cause people to question if she is a feminist? I honestly don't care. If she is okay, if not okay. Can't we all accept our differences and stop turning every feminist thread into a shithole?

[QUOTE=yawmwen;43269647]this is honestly the most i've ever thought about beyonce in like...well, ever. thanks fp for making me think about pop music.[/QUOTE] It's all the feminists' fault. They've made you think about something other than Rage Against The Machine and obscure, oddly specific far left political ideologies. Take the red pill, put on the fedora, come to thy holy land of Reddit. Become... [i]euphoric[/i]. [editline]22nd December 2013[/editline] You won't ever have to think again.

[QUOTE=gudman;43259448]Good luck with that. Especially when groups in question have mixed ideas of what is the information they're trying to spread. Sending good ideas mixed with garbage is the best and fastest way to get your message disregarded, like "patriarchy" concept. Thanks to radical movements, it pretty much turned from being legit concept of socio-cultural structure of human relations into white male conspiracy to oppress all women for the sake of *insert pseudo-scientific terms here*.[/QUOTE] this is such a load of crap, i am CONSTANTLY seeing the concept of patriarchy being explained again and again, but people just ignore it and say WOW WHITE MALE CONSPIRACY! [editline]22nd December 2013[/editline] another thing is, alot of you guys take the tumblr shit waaaaay too seriously. almost all of it is either humour, satire or hyperbole. its a way of drawing attention to social privilege, it's to make you think 'here is what people who are not as privileged as me have to deal with' sure, it seems offensive and you feel like you've been targeted, and yeah yes it's offensive but oh well, but yeah it's not you being targeted, stop taking it so seriously
