How the hell is “keep fucking that chicken” an anti-male shaming tactic? You could easily say the same thing to a non-male and it would have exactly the same meaning.
A meaning tht Tom has completely borked.
This just further reinforces my idea that Tom Martin thinks misandry is “critcism/negativity directed towards a man.” -_-
@Kirbywarp
That’s exactly it, though. His big analysis of the gender studies texts that he used in court was simply counting how many times men’s issues were discussed versus women’s issues, and also how often men were criticised.
He even has the criteria he used on his page. I’ll link directly to it to spare you having to look at his home page:
http://sexismbusters.org/Analysis%20tool%20for%20biased%20texts.pdf
yeah but it was originally said to a dude, so misandry. (by another dude, but that dude was probably an m-feminist. all new anchors are)
@Myoo:
When he was talking about his on-the-street hokey, he described “misandric utterances” as “negative comments” about men, and “non-misandric utterances” as “neuteral/positive comments.”
To be fair, he described “misogynistic/non-misogynistic utterances” the same way. Also to be fair, he was absurdly off-base on both. Somebody doesn’t understand how prejudice and sytematic oppression works.
Yeah, I’m sure that was it, and not the fact that it requires work, as well as a cogent thought process, to file an appeal.
STILL referring to Sharculese as a she? Because only a woman would dare disagree with such strong Tom logic!
What a dumbshit.
@Myoo:
Gahh! I went to the homepage to see what the big deal was. DO NOT FREAKING AUTO-START AUDIO ON YOUR WEBPAGE THAT PUTS YOU IN THE 8TH CIRCLE OF WEB-DESIGN HELL MY EAAARRSSS!
which he never actually did…
@kirby
geocities never died. or at least before it did it laid eggs in tom’s brain.
Far into the distant future, alien beings will discover our planet’s carcass. They will traverse the depths of our sewers and the shells of our buildings. One of the beings will be attacked by a flying internet, and a day or so later a geocities will burst from their chest to infect others.
he should be an expert on cogent men’s rights movement arguments on the interconnectedness of misogyny and misandry,
Ah, yes; the myth of the middle, “teach the controversy, just like the flat-earthers and the creationists.
But since he is such an expert, and knows the arguments aren’t cogent he did what anyone who is objective does: he ignored the bullshit.
A pecunium full of shit surprise as usual. I’ll pass.
I just watched your segment on the al_Jazeera site. I loved the cat pictures 🙂
Keep fucking that chicken of being a total dolt, Tom!
“Not uh! The fucking going on is my arguments fucking yours!” goes down in history as the greatest comeback ever btw.
Tulgey Logger: Almost had Coke all over my keyboard! Hah!
I love the look on (what I assume is) his co-host’s face when he says it. 😀
I love it when our gasbags have the vapors over “keep fucking that chicken.”
I can’t tell what’s worse–that you think this is a good argument or that you think this way of thinking is somehow unique
Black people made me racist
Gay people made me homophobic.
You fall right in line with all the other bigots. Congratulations.
Tom, do you mean like how your court case is full of shit? You know, because you got thrown out of the court because you are full of shit. Or is this more on the “I’m claiming it’s full of shit because I can’t have half a brain to make a coherent evidence based argument, thus whores” level full of shit?
The world needs to know.
Tom… if you want to ignore someone, the best thing to do is ignore them. I have to give this to Varpole, when he decided that talking to me was more than he could handle, he quit.
You can’t even manage that.
Protip, if you want to insult someone, say something which has some, passing, relevance to the comment; otherwise all that happens is the people who read it g, “wha…?”.
@scrapemid
I’m just gonna throw this out there, but since the posts were from yesterday, not sure if he/she will see this:
Violence is a LEARNED behavior!
Mmmm, vinaigrette.
Hey, as far as court transcripts are concerned, 15 pounds a page sounds extravagant to me.
But then, when my boss wants a transcript, we get a recording of the proceedings from the court and I transcribe it myself.
We once had a case where our client was suing his neighbor for waving a gun in our client’s face over a barbecue grill.
Our client kept rubbing his hands over how much money he was going to get from his neighbor, because the neighbor was from $FOREIGN_COUNTRY and that of course meant he was rich … which was a logical progression I never quite followed.
Our client went so far as to refuse to negotiate an out-of-court settlement, so certain was he of a large judgment.
Then the court ruled against him.
He stood on the steps of the courthouse and yelled to the skies: “THERE IS NO JUSTICE FOR THE WHITE MAN!”
This is what I think of whenever Martin appears in the comments. And then I remember that it’s ridiculously easy in the U.S. for our angry white men to get ahold of hand guns, or just bring a gallon of gasoline to the courthouse steps.
@Falconer
Please tell me this is verbatim. Pleeeeaaasssseeee!!
