Here at Man Boobz, I’ve set it so first-time commenters have their comments sent to moderation so I can decide if they’re sort of people I want to have commenting here on a regular basis. Given the obnoxiousness of some of the people I let through, I imagine some of you might wonder just what it takes to get censored around here. So here, as a public service of sorts, is one recent comment from a first-timer that I didn’t let through.
It’s from someone claiming to be Chris Key, the Australian dude who runs Men’s Rights Online, offering his thoughts on Paul Elam’s recent hate campaign. (I’m pretty sure it really is him.) As you read, you might want to consider the irony of his complaints about the “foul, aggressive language” of the protestors.
Speaking of which TRIGGER WARNING for abusive language.

Is manboobz.com a playground for patients from North America’s most notorious psychiatric ward?
Seriously, the amount of insane drivel on here has the potential to cause any sane person to ask the aforementioned question. The fact that you fuckwits are trying to portray this goofy, hatemongering feminazi as as a “victim” is beyond insane.
The hatemongering feminazis who protested against Farrell were shouting vulgarities and physically blocking all entrances to the building. That’s intimidation and a suppression of free speech, which is a form of violence. Go watch the videos on YouTube if you don’t believe me, and you’ll see that these feminazi dykes and cunts — as well as the mangina losers who were sniffing around for a sympathy fuck — used foul, aggressive language while barricading the entrances so that the men who wanted to attend the meeting could not get inside.
If a bunch of men did that at a women’s conference then you loopy cunts would claim it’s “proof” that MRAs are uncivilised and violent. Anyone who has a shred of credibility and objectivity can see that the purpose behind these cunts’ actions was to intimidate and suppress the voices of people they do not agree with. If you dopey cunts think that’s okay then it proves that you’re nothing but a bunch of hatemongering fascists who need to spend a night in a watchhouse, as it’s patently obvious that you’re too deluded, stupid and hateful to learn the art of acting decency any other way.
I find it ironic that you losers claim that MRAs are violent. Do I need to remind you spasticated cunts that feminists are violent murderers who intimidate anyone who doesn’t bow down to them?
Take the case of Erin Pizzey as a prime example of what I’m talking about. The feminazis in England murdered her dog and sent numerous death threats to her family, for no other reason than she publicly stated that the women who came to her women’s shelter — Pizzey set up the first women’s shelter in England — were every bit as violent as the men they accused of attacking them. Poor Erin was exposed to so many threats a well organised group of feminazis that she had to flee the country and resettle in the USA.
Don’t take my word for it, see for yourselves:
http://www.nationalpost.com/opinion/columnists/story.html?id=a41532d6-d4df-46a2-a784-f6499938f3b0
Pizzey isn’t the first person to experience violence at the hands of feminists. Researchers from the USA experienced something similiar. I think Strauss was one of the victims. Another one was a woman, but I cannot remember her name.
I suppose I’m going to be banned now for speaking the truth, just like you cunts did to gateman. On manboobz.com, only feminist lies and libel directed at MRAS is tolerated by its fat, goofy, unloved owner and its filthy, insane, deceitful, hateful community.
So, there’s that. And there are, alas, many more where that came from.
Also, as far as I can tell, there’s no proof that feminists — or feminazis — killed Pizzey’s dog. This is often asserted as fact, but in the only direct statement from Pizzey on the subject that I’ve been able to find she only says that “one of my dogs was shot on Christmas day on my property.” She insinuates that it was the work of feminists, but does not say so outright, presumably because she does not know for sure. If anyone has any more evidence on the subject I would like to see it.
It goes without saying that whoever did kill Pizzey’s dog, assuming the incident did happen, was and is terrible and wrong. But I’m still not quite sure how this decades-old alleged incident gives MRAs today the license to harass feminists who weren’t even born when it allegedly happened.
Nepenthe, all of these .gifs are really for you, ‘cos they’re adorable. Things that are more interesting than Diogenes the Insipid, #9.
I think Diogenes cherishes a fantasy of being a member of this community. Good thing it’ll never happen.
He thinks that David not banning him means David likes him. Has he seen some of the loathsome trolls who post here? Things that are more interesting than Diogenes the Insipid, #10.
I could keep going, but I really need to write a letter of reference for a colleague. Nepenthe, all kinds of internet hugs if you want ’em.
Cloudiah, my narrations, in order
1. “I wuv you.”
2. “Scuse me, coming through.” Thick Australian accent.
3. “Spin tighter!” “Man, this rehearsal is going on furever.”
4. “Whoa, high five bro!”
5. “I wanted a poppyseed bun, but this one will do.” “I feel uncomfortable.”
6. “It’sfiveaclocksumwheres.”
7. “Gogogadget me!” (This is my favorite because my old house mascot was an armadillo.)
8. “Roger that base 1, visibility is zero, I repeat, visibility is zero.”
9. “Is that a can opener I hear?”
Thank you much.
Dear fellow USians, there is no free speech right on the internet. You are online via an internet service provider that has rules and conditions and every legal right to restrict your online activity, including speech, if it so chooses. You are looking at a page hosted on a server owned by another private company which has the same power. And the page you are looking at is run by a person with absolute power to decide what is allowed to be said here and what isn’t.
Please stop with the inane free speech argument. You’re making the rest of us look stupid.
PS – the right to free speech does not also mean freedom from criticism. Please get that through your thick skulls as well.
In other news, I totally want to bake all you awesome math people in this thread cookies. I loved geometry and find fractals absolutely fascinating, but I fell into the “girls can’t do math or science” trap as a youngun and despite loving geometry and geology and astronomy, I didn’t pursue any of them. Road not taken and all that. But I make fabulous peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookies (aka “the trifecta of cookie deliciousness” 😉
Hippo, do you think its like a “special snowflake” thing? Except instead of sucking up he’s trying to set himself apart by being cringe-worthy, which in turn will make us feel challenged and invigorated by his posts? Wait, I get it, cynic-kids seen too many romantic comedies.
Now that he has done his appeal to authority I suspect he will feel justified in continuing his inappropriate behavior until David puts him on moderation.
There is no narration for 10 because red pandas are too cute for words.
Nepenthe, I would never intentionally hurt someone like that. Never. Ever.
I know I’m a name across a screen, and I may or may not hang out under bridges eating children. But you’re a person to me. You’re another name across a screen, but I don’t see why that should make me callus to any pain of yours. I’d rather have you be the happiest you you could ever be, even though I don’t know you.
Please accept my apology. I am deeply sorry for hurting you.
Oww, cynic, did you just swallow a bunch of Hallmark cards?
OMG that red panda is the mostest adorable EVAH!
Shiraz. Ditch the snark.

Ok, now the trolls expect obedience from the commentariat! Priceless.
The trolls ALWAYS expect our obedience as well as David’s. All they need to do is show up and demand that we comment according to their expectations and that David write only about what they think he should be talking about. Somehow they keep thinking this will work THIS TIME.
Just like some old white dude standing on a podium telling us we’ll all go to hell for having sex outside of marriage, which has been done for thousands of years, will totally work THIS TIME.
Cynic.
Maybe your sister has experienced no sexism whatsoever in her career in EE (I really doubt it, though. There is more than enough misogyny to go around in tech departments). But it’s also entirely possible your sister has experienced similar discrimination and criticism as a woman in a traditionally male field (I sure as fuck have) and just never told you about it. It’s even possible she knew exactly what you’d say if she talked to you about it. Maybe you’d lecture her condescendingly about “letting go of the bitterness for her own good” all the while ignoring her experiences. Maybe you’d tell her all about some other woman you know in chemistry who didn’t have a problem, so she should just chill out.
You know, like you just did to another woman in a traditionally male field right here in this thread?
You’re speech to Nepenthe was pretty condescending. And if your sister ever does tell you that she’s had to deal with discrimination, PLEASE don’t talk to her like you’ve talked to Nepenthe. If my brother had lectured me like that? I’d have felt betrayed and crushed.

Point taken. Pill swallowed. Crow pie eaten.
“Shiraz. Ditch the snark.”
Um, no.
And his font was so…dare I say, feminine. 😉
What the fuck? WordPress is eating my comments.
Shiraz, he’s a special snowflake all right. His real problem is that he doesn’t understand that his actions have consequences. He wants to come in here and say hateful things, but he wants us all to like him anyway. His attempts to ingratiate himself are so pathetic that they’re almost painful to watch – and yet after all the shit he’s pulled in here I find I don’t really care if he humiliates himself in public.
Oh, I don’t care if he humiliates himself either, hippo. But the thing is, every time I read one of his posts, my eyes start to bleed.
My brother has lectured me like that; it was exactly that. If you ever do it Diogenes, I hope the day after you eat a spinach salad full of pig shit and become a habitat to worms that I haven’t even dreamed of. ‘Cause I get to dislike you in ways that I can’t dislike my family.
Oh, and I know you weren’t trying to be hurtful. Not sure whether the fact that being a condescending ass is so natural to you that it’s effortless is supposed to make it better.
I don’t believe it. I’ve tried to post this six times.
Diogenes: Shiraz. Ditch the snark
Damn Son, for just a moment there was a glimmer of hope. Your second apology was overdone and affected, but seemed sincere.
Then you had to blow it.
You screwed up. You stepped in some deep doo-doo. The stink doesn’t come off right away (and you had baggage already, so it’s a lot harder for you to cop to a mistake and get general forgiveness). You may not have hurt Shiraz, or Morkaischosen, or me, nor anyone but Nepenthe, but you did offend us.
Accept it.
It means you are going to come in for snark, and flack and some other grief. Try to take it gracefully (graciously may be too much to ask). At the very least, take it, and shut up (it’s what I do when I think someone has ben offended and I can’t do more than apologise for offending them).
In short, grow up.
I have no idea what I am saying which is just disappearing. I’ve had something like eight comments just dissapear.
Diogenes, you need to accept that you fucked up. That second apology was trite, but seemed to be in the right place.
You screwed up. You’ve got baggage from other events. The stink of that screw up won’t just vanish. Accept it. try to be gracious. If you can’t be gracious, be quiet.
