Reddit MRA upvote brigade to the rescue! Or, the Battle of the Urban Dictionary Atheism+ Definition

Reddit MRAs, heeding the call to service, once again prove what dedicated activists they are. Check out the upvotes on this baby!

Today Urban Dictionary, tomorrow the world! (Also, check out those tags!)

Oh, and in case you were wondering, Reddit MRAs also wield a mean downvote; see definition numero dos.

Of course, Man Boobzers reign supreme where it really counts: the Rationalization Hamster meme!

He does seem to be very, very concerned about David’s schtick, and what else David should be doing. I wonder if he’s anybody we know?

Oo, you guys are onto something. He used the word “schtick,” too. Clues galore!

But does he seem… bored by all of this schtick? *puts sunglasses on* *walks off while The Who play*

Nah, no way is he bored by David’s schtick. No one this concerned about David’s schtick would ever, ever describe themselves as bored by it. That would just be self-refuting, and thus too silly for an internet pseudonym.

Why do these trolls just come in and state things that are completely false and can be easily refuted with a simple search? Do they really believe what they’re saying is true or do they just assume everyone will simply take them at their word?

PitchSchticky, dude, nobody here is interested in your attempts to start a feud with David over Atheism +. Take it to email if you really must keep nattering on about it.

Remember kids, he hates gays, brownies, and is totally okay with people sexually abusing you, but he LOVES your puppy!

Well remember, he DID charge that officer from Chandler PD for leaving his dog in the car…while ignoring the three deputies in his own department who did the same thing.

If someone told me I was the last not-racist person living in Maricopa I would totally believe them, straight up.

Now come on, that is not fair to Maricopa County-we have a lot of non-racist people here. Would you say Kyrsten Sinema is? David Schapira? Mary Rose Wilcox?

A troll who puts the word misogyny into scare quotes … yeah, schtickypitchfail, we’re so going to take you seriously after that little give-away.

Myoo:

Jen McCreight on her Twitter feed wondered why her day had to be interrupted by walking by a homeless person masturbating. Then a follow-up post that insinuated this homeless person needed her consent to masturbate. It was fucking ridiculous.

The supposed leader of Atheism Plus. Left her flagship, though, for greener pastures. However, it seems the Atheism Plus forum is in good hands when one of its moderators tells a male rape victim they’d be better off dead than raped and not banned for the offense – because of ignorance of speaking to a rape victim, apparently, which would only make it more appropriate, I suppose. Don’t know if someone’s a rape victim? Tell them they’d be off dead. *head desk*

David: What I did in the Amanda Todd thread was attempt to provide a bit of *balance.* You know, when you’re trying to not just speak from one side. The funny thing is I *did* clarify; I don’t agree with his comments about Todd, I don’t agree with his particular view on it, but I was *trying* to give you some perspective. Perspective you severely lack as you’re so obsessed with calling people sexist, misogynist and MRA’s, and ‘mocking misogyny’, it’s taken over your ability to be objective. If you’ve ever had that ability in the first place, frankly the site is beginning to resemble Jihadwatch, Memri and PressTV. Not a smidgeon of objectivity as far as the eye can see, and your story on TAA and Todd face-smackingly obvious how biased it was.

I disagreed with your contention calling him an ‘all around terrible person.’ That doesn’t automatically mean I agree with everything he says including Todd, for anyone who has a problem with cognitive dissonance. That means I don’t agree with that particular assessment, because a) he’s not and b) he cares about both women and men, and teenagers who commit suicide too, evidently by his latest video. (Which I linked and you deleted.) However, he’s crass, he doesn’t mince words and he’s a bit of an asshole. More than a bit of an asshole, in his own words. And you know what, I agree. He is. But that doesn’t mean he’s ‘an all around terrible person’, as your hyperbole seemed to suggest. It doesn’t mean I *defend* him and it doesn’t mean I’m trivialising what happened to Todd. On the other hand, in TAA’s latest video, he brings up Todd (I assume you watched it and not just deleted it outright?) and why he feels the way he feels. Balance.

Oh, and on the MRA/Reddit thing: Really? A comment thread with 46 comments that halfway down links to the urbandictionary entry where *ONE* of them thinks they should upvote suggests to you it’s done by the MRA? Brilliant.

Pitchschtick, you were shut down in the other thread, so you bring it here? You can’t give someone perspective, especially when your perspective is asinine and factually bereft. If you’re so concerned about balance, go start your own blog.

Are you not able to grasp what the header of this site means? Do you need a refresher on mockery?

Pitchy: Pecunium: Maybe you should learn to use the search function?

Nope. Because you made the claim; you make it, you defend it. If I’d not searched with the perfect string, and said I couldn’t find it you’d probably be crowing about how dishonest I was (or perhaps stupid).

And you didn’t manage to defend your position,. That person wasn’t told they’d be better off dead. They were (badly) told that being murdered has a different effect from being raped. Murder (quite correctly) is an end-state crime. Nothing happens after it. There are no enduring effects (on the person killed; in that dead is dead; and one cannot further [so far as we know] experience anything)

Again, thank you for playing.

The use of, “objectivity” and the imputation of some sort of ethical requirement; as well as the use of schtick… I’m pretty sure I’d like to play poker with him, as it seems he has tells. (not all of which I’m going to share).

Too bad he doesn’t know when to hold ’em, fold ’em, walk away, or RUN.

Is it just me, or do none of Pitch-a-Schtick’s links actually bear out his representations in his first comment?

Peconium: Only if you have trouble reading. Are you defending piegasm’s insinuation that a male rape victim would be better off dead than raped? If you’d gone back to read the thread, which I’m sure you didn’t, you’d know the rape victim very clearly outlined his propensity for being dubbed a potential rapist. Piegasm chimes in that in a woman’s point of view, the possibility that the man is a rapist is 50/50 to which Cuduggan2K2 says this is whack and asks piegasm if he/she thought this about murderers as well, leading to this exchange,

Cuduggan2K2:
“Agreed, but does it increase it beyond that of murder? If you are murdered, you cease to be, surely that is a higher cost than having been the victim of something with no recourse.”

piegasm:
“You just said it. You cease to be after being murdered, thus you’re not continuing to endure any costs related to having been murdered.”

In other words, better to be dead than raped. I’m not surprised at your obfuscation.

Hellkell: David brought it up.

Are you seriously gonna make a “he started it” argument? Are you 12? Fuck off.

So Pitchy, your position is that it’s totally fine for anyone to masturbate in public, in full view of other people, including children? What other sexual acts do people have the right to inflict on non-consenting people passing by?

cloudiah

hellkell, I think he would have to be at least 13 to be able to spell “obfuscation” correctly.

Now Pitchy’s all made because Dave
deleted his comment. “I’m brave,
and I like being mean –
so she’s dead at fifteen –
so why can’t I dance on her grave?”

My apologies for shortening your name, David. It’s much easier to rhyme that way.
