[quote=@Tulpa] [@Fabricant451] That was a metaphorical comparison, you dunce. A very accurate one at that. (On second thought, you're either dumb or you purposely needling and misquoting an argument. I fully suspect that it's the latter. Weak and manipulative choice either way.) Also shows your ignorance that you agree on that, but completely miss the point when it comes to women's issues. Not only miss the point, but the point flies to straight to Saudi Arabia wearing a hijab 1,000 miles into the air and then blows up at impact.[/quote] Well, I certainly don't think name calling is called for. That's a bit rude, isn't it? It also wasn't an accurate comparison considering all you're doing is deciding my views and stances for me. I don't support your side of things, therefore I must be the person that goes 'All Lives Matter'. I don't think the things people protest and shout about are as important as they claim they are, so clearly I must miss the point of women's issues. Women are not always victims. Women's issues are not somehow more important and aren't always exclusively about women. Excuse me for not thinking that women aren't equal in the society I'm part of. That must make me ignorant. Or privileged. Or some buzzword. You're not even attempting to educate or talk with me; you'd much rather talk down to me and exclaim how I don't get it because I have different views on the situation. Because you 'don't have time'. This is exactly why people say there's no point in arguing with people like you. Not you specifically. People like you. It's a metaphorical comparison. [quote] Got it. So you don't believe that systemic harassment and sexism is harassment and sexism.[/quote] I don't believe that anonymous sock accounts on Twitter or social media going "i'm gona rape u" or "i'm gonna kill u if u censor my thing bitch" is a credible threat or real harassment. It's trolling. It's base level trolling. It's the shit that the 6 o'clock news 'reports' on in order to scare parents. You probably wouldn't think it was anything either if, say, a male was given the same threat. If a threat is credible, it wouldn't be broadcast for everyone to see and if people felt truly threatened by it, they wouldn't broadcast it to their support chamber with big letters saying "SEE? THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING TO EVERYONE IT NEEDS TO END". That's called feeding the trolls. I believe that sexism and harassment are sexism and harassment. But the kind of threats that happened during the whole GG shit were empty and more indicative of general level of online maturity rather than some kind of sexist agenda. Doxxing is a really bad thing, but both sides took a glee in doxxing the other - and that's harassment. And that I did and do take issue with. And only serves to show why I ride the fucking fence. [quote]You do not understand the concept of invalid arguments. It is within my right to dismiss invalid arguments. Invalid arguments are not real arguments and are not worth any form of discussion other than to point out their fallacy. You are not arguing. You're just spouting hyperbole.[/quote] I've said my position like three times now, but it doesn't count because it's invalid. My arguments, such as they are, are invalid because I 'don't get it'. Maybe I don't. But you're clearly not interested in changing that. I truly regret being sarcastic to you, because turns out you can't take a joke. Not my best, but can't all be winners. Funny you bring up hyperbole, though, since that's what got us here. You're not willing to see my side as having any merit. Because I'm wrong, my views are wrong, and I'm racist and sexist and misogynistic and all the -ists. 'If the shoe fits' or something, right? But please tell me I'm wrong for not wanting to be part of a community that will stand up for someone just because they're a woman no questions asked, and sweep their shady and morally wrong past under the rug because they're a 'victim'. Tell me I'm wrong for condemning people that mock and genuinely despise people that have identity issues or have strong beliefs. Tell me I don't understand because I'm stupid enough to realize that both sides are hurting their own cause more than they realize. Tell me how I should feel. I don't side with 'the enemy' simply because I don't stand with you. Only a Sith deals in absolutes. I thought we were making progress. Reaching an understanding. But I guess not. You can still come to my birthday party though. [quote] By the way, you're a fucking weeaboo, mate. Sad but true. [/quote] Hey, leave Tsukune alone. Weeb Lives Matter.
