Quotethe ultimate aim, it seems, is to turn campuses into “safe spaces” where young adults are shielded from words and ideas that make some uncomfortable. And more than the last, this movement seeks to punish anyone who interferes with that aim, even accidentally. You might call this impulse vindictive protectiveness. It is creating a culture in which everyone must think twice before speaking up, lest they face charges of insensitivity, aggression, or worse.

This idea of a safe space is being used to try to censor dissenting opinions

Be careful when citing Factual Feminist. The American Enterprises Institute is a conservative-funded organization, and doesn't tend to present things in a fair and balanced way (unless you use the Fox News definition). The fact that FF spends 99.99% of her time explaining what feminism is not, rather than what it is, is something I find troubling.
Speak when you have something to say, not when you have to say something.

Tell me, if a white, male MRA came up to you and said, in a bashful and uppity voice: "Two plus two equals four!" Would that make it less right, because he was an MRA?

Basically what Sal said, I have learned to drop the tribalism and i will take fox news if they are saying some right over any liberal media on the same topic saying something wrong.

Case in point GMO's factual reporting I saw on fox news (they actually accepted the scientific consensus on that one and showed relevant papers) and AEI (i think it was from them?) analysis of the wage gap. Also I saw a speech about conservative economy from the AEI that was pretty good and actually raised good arguments unlike the republican usual talking heads. Also the peter hitchens debate about free speech at the Oxford Union.

ah yes I had forgotten about this one, she encapsulates the concept of SJW (meaning social justice warrior, used ironically of course) quite well. Using the safe space rhetoric and mental gymnastics laden with SJW buzzwords to justify her bigotry.

So i guess now you know what I'm talking about mermaid?

I laughed to that video.

Only troubling thing about that video is that it is another example of how American culture turns everything into a hyped up show with law suit battles; the fantasy bullshit understanding of freedom of any kind; people chalking up every reaction that culture naturally produces as a result of common issues to some sort of 'liberalism' that only belongs to the greatest Banana Republic of all times AND turn back and try to 'critcise' major universal concepts, ideologies as if they were invented right then and there, as if they ever existed or can exist independently from them, in a manner as if they are determined by a tiny group in 311 million people. Flee  circus.

Sigh. This makes me upset more than most Americans.

explain yourself. How I'm being prescriptive about labels, and how I'm singling out feminism when I just told you I treat atheism or any other term the same.

I am not going to get into some conversation with someone who is frustrated and angry at women because he is kicked out from a couple of websites; who classifies me as a Nazi because of my position concerning the rights of my gender; insulting my intelligence,  my opinions on the subject starting from his first post; projecting every fucking bullshit he himself feels back to me and the members of the gender group he is targeting.

I will explain myself whenever and wherever I like it, you will go and read it and respond with what you have to say OR you will click the ignore button in your profile.

But after this entrance and the childish hostile attitude you showed BEFORE even provoked, don't expect any respect for your bullshit from me.

Frankly,  I am exhausted of dealing with young males and their egos that gets triggered by social media feeds of acts and vlogs and blogs of women they watch between their gaming sessions then start to pour their frustration as soon as a woman gets loud about a female issue, thinking they covered a main human rights issues because as far as they see with their social media intellect while everything is fine they are under some sort of attack.

Yeah because a person making an argument from "fragile madiens vs evil perpetrators" via law suits between a few students and professors can be defined as facts and expressed as 2 plus 2 is 4. What is the American Society coming to...

It has nothing to with the bullshit sides of American culture which bears the same characteristics of individual reactions in every societal issue.

Show business.

I don't think your typical MRA has the mental capacity to say "Two plus two equals four". It would probably confuse him. They aren't known to be the sharpest tools in the shed.

I'm not angry at women I just disagree with big chunks of feminist ideology and rhetoric and I don't like having irrelevant words thrown at my person when I'm trying to discuss ideas or censored because some petty oversensitive person cannot withstand criticism of their ideas.

Quotewho classifies me as a Nazi because of my position concerning the rights of my gender
never happened.

Quoteinsulting my intelligence,  my opinions on the subject starting from his first post; projecting every fucking bullshit he himself feels back to me and the members of the gender group he is targeting.

I do not target a gender. I target stupid people with shit ideas. Too bad you fall into both of those categories.

QuoteI will explain myself whenever and wherever I like it, you will go and read it and respond with what you have to say OR you will click the ignore button in your profile.

Which is basically never, because you yet to back up your claims or address my responses rather than go on deranged rants of self-victimization and whining about the posters and this forum and how much you are not gonna engage in the discourse but rather will keep whining, maybe how about you go do something you actually enjoy?

QuoteBut after this entrance and the childish hostile attitude you showed BEFORE even provoked, don't expect any respect for your bullshit from me.

I have been on this forum on and off for like 5 years. Believe I never expected anything from you.

Are you really that dense that you cannot understand a simple idea like no matter the messenger, the value is in the message?
