Social Justice warriors/Feminists are ridiculous

[God Of War]

you see the shit with Matt Taylor? The fucking guy landed a machine on an asteroid and they made him have to do a public apology because he wore a shirt with a scantily dressed woman on it.

[Witty]

Yeah it was dumb...nothing to do with social justice though, whether people are hiding behind that or not. Social justice is a good thing, but as with anything it is open to be misinterpreted by idiots.

He was dumb for apologizing too tho.

[Passenger]

dudes lack balls now-a-days. niggas don't want to take on social justice groups that have become extreme like this. everyone just wants to bow down, now feminism is slowly reigning in everyday culture

[Just C]

This is why you can't have equality. 1 side is always pushing to gain more. I know this is slightly different but if it isn't someone throwing all sense of logic out of the window it's someone abusing the momentum they built from trying to gain parity into completely reversing the balance.

Gay rights, womens rights, racial equality, immigration, benefits, legal rights, human rights. were all racist greedy judgemental bastards who want nothing less than the advantage.

I think you are wrong man, some of the biggest names in social justice/ 3rd wave feminism is what helped cause this.

Then they are misusing their cause.

Social justice, at its bare essentials, is definitely a good thing, but I know what you mean.

Social justice and feminism are definitely good things. People like this are more rightly classified as "sensitive pussies overreacting to shit". They are to social justice/feminism what the westborough baptist church is to Christianity.

As a guy that knows quite a lot of gays and political feminists/activists in general on most sides of the socialist coin I'm with you on this. The crazy fucks speak the loudest but far from speak for the majority, specially on the internet where there's way too many of these absolutely ludicrous Tumblr-maniacs to support crazy ideas that doesn't hold grounds in logic it's easy to get your views clouded as you'll base your understanding of it on the noise.

Edit: Just realized something as well. Feminist activism in the US seems to be quite different from how it works and is put to practice in Norway, so I probably shouldn't join the convo as I don't know exactly how different it is. But the sane/majority of people probably share the same mindset.

do you know what feminism is? like true feminism?

the problem with social justice and feminism is that so many ppl online use it as mask to lash out social groups they don't like. ie. many women who angry with men use it to bash males, genderqueer ppl will villify straight ppl, etc. under the guise of fighting equality, when really that isn't equality it's just lashing out.

but true feminism is a good thing. it is literally a belief that men and women should have equal rights, be paid equal amount of money for the same jobs, be allowed to make choices about their own bodies w/o govt interference, vast amount of issues this country has w/ rape, etc.

No, I disagree with you and Anime because this is now true feminism and the people leading it has hundreds of thousands of followers. go on hundreds of shows to promote it so that is what it has turned into now.

Just because it used to be good and needed doesn't mean it is still good or needed. "True Feminism" has became this.

Take Christina H Sommers who is a scholar and considered an old school feminist, She is attacked daily by hundreds and hundreds of "new feminists"

[uh-oh]

someone explain feminism to me

[Clayray]

They want equality between men and women.

But if i can hold the door open for myself then bitch you can too ya arms ain't broke

Kidding. Idk either, buncha girls that need a good fucking b

[uh-oh]

WORD

my go to when women get uppity about equality is I CAN'T PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE THO

i got into it with a feminist dyke a few years ago on the very subject. and by got into it i was my charming hilarious non threatening self of a few years ago bantering playfully and mystically.

basically i said if i could punch you in the face we'd be equal

she was like no thats retarded, you "can't" punch a man in the face either. to which i countered, duh nigga. but that would just be "assault", if i punched you, its "assault on a woman" which is much more serious. to which she replied some PHOOEY about men having broader shoulders and narrower hips and just being genetically superior at punching humans in the face in reference to women.

to which i responded

THEN HOW ARE WE EQUAL

THEN I GOT HEAD FROM HER GIRLFRIEND

GO DO SOME DISHES HO

but nah in all seriousness tho, im not anti women, i'm anti this nonsense that they can do everything men can do. they can, not. physically and mentally we are not equal. I mean maybe if you consider 1 lb of iron and 1 lb of feathers equal, then yea sure we are equal. but im sure you don't want to get hit in the face with the pound of iron.

my point being, women are good at things. men are good at things. some of those things overlap. some don't

feminism to me is a delusion of people thinking that ALL those things overlap. they do not, to think so is to be misguided.

I HAVE SPOKEN

literally nothing more than that

as evidenced itt tend white males typically fight it tooth and nail, much the same way they do any other form of equal rights movements by any marginalized person in this country (see civil rights, gay rights, immigrant rights, etc) because they enjoy being at the top of the power struggle.

the typical battle against feminism is to take the looniest ones online and showcase them as the voice of feminism. (like this thread)

as stated already that's basically the equivalent of using the westboro baptist church as an example of what christianity stands for, or ISIS for Islam, etc.

The fundamental ideology behind feminism is complete equality between men and women. It started as a movement for women due to the extreme inequality that reigned back in the day but the main drive and goal was always equal treatment towards both genders.

Just like politics it got different branches to it though so it's easy to get confused when people claim ''yay, feminism is winning'' and showcasing a man getting beat up by a woman when that's actually stepping away from it. That's not what a true feminist would want. For me the important part is to push for equality (while also acknowledging the biological differences in men and women) and say ''wait a minute, you're fucking up'' if someone choose to push for one gender as opposed to find a solution that works for both.

jesus fucking christ

physical strength and so forth is not the basis of equality. this 2014 not 1420.

"equality" in the case of feminism isnt about door holding, or if it's ok to punch them

it's things like being paid equal for the same job. white women in america make about 0.77 to a dollar of what a man makes for the same job on average. for minority women it's even worse.

state governments repeatedly attempt to ban birth control for women, or at least make it difficult to obtain. have no issues vs condoms or vasectomies.

fighting vs rape culture, etc.

there's a ton of other inequality issues I don't feel like typing out, and chances are you won't even read this shit but if you do I think you can get the gist?

[uh-oh]

someone explain equal rights to me?

nothing is equal in life. it is a genetic lottery, white males only have it better because of where they are born (generally speaking of course.) it all boils down to class issues as far as the white male privelege goes. white people from squalor go to the same deplorable schools as minorities which get no funding because the taxpayers in the districts make no money to fund it and the ones that do make a little money usually dump it into useless shit like sports programs so maybe one kid every 40 years makes it to the professional level while 500+ a year wash out with a terrible education living in the same terrible neighborhoods where they all fight for the same terrible jobs and end up looking for the same terrible shortcuts which lead to the beginning of the cycle where they have children ETC

as far as women tho, i don't get it. to me everything is already equal, in a sense. if my dream was to be a starbucks barista it would be pretty far fetched for them to hire a bald bearded hooligan who is straight. but if i was a woman, even an ugly fat one my chances would skyrocket. and on the flipside, no warehouse would choose the bulliest of dykes over me to move boxes and do manual labor. i'm a beast out here.

that in itself is a form of gender equality. but when you hear equality you think, well shit i have every right to be a barista and she has every right to be a laborer.

AND WE DO

my biggest problem with "gender equality" comes into play when you talk about marriages, and relationships involving kids. women are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ahead of men there, constantly.

i can't think of one, ONE scenario where men have such a stranglehold on any aspect of life, like women do when it comes to robbing men for there money, and there HAPPINESS/CHILDREN

And this is where Mens Rights comes into play, which is a branch of feminism. It's just that since shit's getting evened out in certain fields it tips the scale other places as well. As things get better new shit pop up that needs attention too. I agree 100% and A SHITLOAD OF FEMINISTS do too when it comes to this kind of shit. This is wrong and should be fought against, it's not equal, that's what feminists are for.

I voted for a political party in Norway that counts itself as feminist and those issues you pulled forth here is one of their agendas to work towards in order to reach equal rights for both parents when it comes to that shit.
