People like to blame their problems and failures on others.
You being a white male get that blame.
Cuz you have that much power.........



Says the guy who blames everybody else, wow the stuff you guys post.




Well when everyone's special, nobody is....

Things I have learned from the social justice movement:

I'm anti-women because I disagree about the "wage gap."

I'm anti-women because I dislike new age feminists.

I'm a fat shamer because I think that people should take care of their body.

I'm a fat shamer because I congratulate people on their weight loss.

I'm racist because I think we should have protected borders.

I'm racist because I believe that all lives matter.

I'm a racist, anti-women, fat shaming bastard because I am a white male. (With an admittedly rockin body)


Thank god for the internet. Otherwise I would have never known any of this. We should make badges.

My point is (yes there's a point) by treating me, and others like me, as the enemy, the movement for "social justice" will not garner support. In fact it will do just the opposite.

The victim card will expire soon enough.


I believe you have learned these lessons from the wrong people. Your post is also a big, giant exaggeration.
Social justice is a positive phrase. It has garnered great support no matter how many delusions of personal persecution you have.


First of all.. Thank you for not using the go-to argument of how I'm now playing the victim.

And please don't misconstrue my point. I'm for equality for everyone.

The problem I see is that this new wave social justice movement has been co-opted by people who are focused on finding anything that can possibly be interpreted as offensive.

Leaves the door open for trolls like me.

Doncha know?

If you bring up up anything wrong with SJWs you're a whiner.

Which is bad.

Because they were already whining..?

It gets confusing.

I've seen mainly students do, what some would say is 'taking it too far". But young people often start at an extreme and when the are finished, we have fantastic accomplishments from them.
The people I have seen overuse the terms 'safe space' (which can have multiple meanings) and 'trigger' (which can have multiple meanings) are conservatives , in a derogatory fashion and more often than the actual terms are actuasly used.

I believe your OP belongs in 'rant' or 'jokes, puns and pranks'. You do state you are trolling.

What is the rent on a safe space?..

I need to get away from my liberal communist feminist neighbour and the constant noise of her bloody vibrator called the "I don't need nah man 3000"..

The repeated use of the number 69 in his username is a sexual microaggression.


I thought it was more of a microinvitation.

Mods can move if they want.

It is a social issue though. There are many like me who have gotten fed up with this BS mindset that "everything is offensive because I said so!"

SJW 101

Complaining is good.

Criticizing the complainers is bad.

Criticizing those that criticize the complainers is good.

Being critical of those that are criticizing those that criticize the complainers is bad.

Probably wouldn't have served as a conservative rallying point ... except the liberals tried to corral conservative students on college campuses.

Safe spaces are a joke. Same as gun-free zones. Just places where bad things can be found lying in ambush.

Cant beat that, op crying over people crying, don't quit your day job lol.

I am so outraged at you being outraged, oh my gawd the outrage.


Oh, but it's all about who has the power ... and these days, they do.



There are courses all about it at 79 universities at least with their own special departments. Some places even have a 'resident activist' every semester for them to learn from.

At Yale, one of the campus officials tempered the campus position on costumes and cultural appropriation by reminding everyone that Halloween is a fun day, and that official was hounded off campus by the SJW brigade.

I think you have me confused with someone else. I said the ebola hysteria was overblown but that people who came back from the hot zones should be quarantined for the 21 days mainly due to the nature of the illness and it's difficulty to treat.
