So when I was poking around on Roosh’s Return of Kings blog the other day I ran across a guest post from someone calling himself Samseau accusing feminists of using racism to exploit men – that is, of expertly manipulating men of different races to fight one another instead of standing firm against the evil feminists and their evil agenda.
The post, while purporting to be somehow “above” the issue of race, is a muddled mess full of “white men have it worst” nonsense like this:
[R]acial infighting between American men wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the political consequences.
Women, if you haven’t noticed, do not fight with each other over racial conflicts. They might get angry over the past, but they are able to resolve all issues by agreeing on a scapegoat: the white man. Colored women will gladly forgive their white sisters, since, after all, it was the white man who oppressed women and minorities.
White men are the big, bad, evil masters, and as such, all females of different colors can agree to put aside their differences in order to bring the white man down.
Yes, he did indeed use the term “colored women.” Oh, but there’s more.
The election results show that decades of brainwashing young American boys has been an unqualified success. Rather than have boys be loyal to their gender, boys have instead been trained to be loyal to their race.
Little non-white boys at the tender age of 9 years are fed lies about how white male oppressors created their poor living conditions, while white boys are taught that they need to correct the injustices of their forefathers lest they be guilty with the indelible sin of white privilege. Female teachers use the appropriate shaming tactics on these young minds to imprint the intended desire for conflict.
All according to plan.
And more:
Men are pawns in the race game. Thus while American women feed themselves government largesse, jobs, university degrees, their husband’s money, and child support money, American men fight each other over table scraps.
But my favorite thing about this article is the little graph that Mr. Samseau made up to illustrate the REAL issues men face today.
Yep. Race is the least important issue, while “getting laid” is number one.
It’s a pretty revealing little chart, huh?
The comment section for the article – wade into this swamp at your own peril – is (predictably enough) filled with angry racists trying to explain why race really does matter. Others, meanwhile, seem upset that all this racism is getting in the way of the regular woman-bashing. Still others suggest that men of all races needed to understand the “root cause” of all our “multicultural problems.” That being … teh Jews.
My favorite comment of the bunch, though, has to be this, from Caliente, combining an astounding ignorance of history with some half-digested evo psych:
Btw the reason why there are practically no racist women is simple.
Males of mammals are territorial.
They naturally base they identity from bottom up: family,tribe,nation,race.And naturally react negative to males of different “tribe”.
Females at the same time are receptive to have sex with any males as long as they are alpha enough.
In 19 century whites fucked all the black women because they were alpha and they had recourses,just look at Brasil.Nowadays a feminist will be cheating on her white beta herbling with some black fitness coach because that is how her brain assumes alphaness.
Wow.
Glad we got that all settled!
A troll that might be tasty covered in cheese sauce.
DAWWW!
Thanks for the suggestions! Fatty isn’t much for playing at all. We have a few cat toys scattered around the house, and when Samson was temporarily distracted, I tried tin foil balls, ping pong balls, rubber jacks balls, emory boards and pens (well, Samson goes nuts for those!), lazer pointers, things dangling from string, or just chasing him around. He’ll just watch the toys roll/skid by, then come to you for snuggles!
I’m also hesitant to condition Fatty to bite things that aren’t Samson, especially as he is not biting the toys. That might also encourage him to further love nip me, and I don’t want that. When he starts doing that, I point at him and firmly say “No,” and that seems to work… for the next ten minutes or so.
It’s a little hard to separate them. Samson is absolutely fascinated by Fatty, and they are civil around each other most of the time. I would have to lock Samson in the washroom or a bedroom or something, and I don’t want to further confuse him or make him feel more jealous. I will try playing with him and tiring him out more; that might work. Jeez, you’d think that a 10 year old cat would stop acting like such a little kid! =P
I just don’t even…no, he’s no fun. He supposedly feels bad about offending me (ahem, perpetuating negative stereotypes) but is scared by my (and others) desire not to be shorthand for “this person is dangerous”!?
He’s scared, by my desire not to be lumped in with scary people, but is sorry if he offended me.
This is such epic fail that it’s just funny! (That I just showered and have a cat towel cape on probably helps with the absurdity)
Wow, that was some grade-A condescension. “I hope that one day you will come to realize that your feelings were foolish and that I was right about everything.” Not that it surprises me that someone with a limited understanding of feminist discourse might also not understand the connection between use of language and social conditions.
Unimaginative empathy fail tosser demonstrates once again that he’s an unimaginative empathy fail tosser. If your interest in life is solely dependent on your location, that says more about you than anything else.
OK, cool, I won’t feel bad about ignoring him completely then. He won’t go away as long as people are responding to him, though.
Your generalization about “pro-pornography” feminists (who, by the way, most likely oppose the same kind of pornography that objectifies women and perpetuates rape culture) are entirely baseless. I live in the US, and most “pro-pornography” feminists here are not only aware of rape culture, but also actively oppose it. Maybe it’s different in France somehow, but that’s extremely unlikely. Just because some “pro-pornography” feminist groups are like what you described doesn’t mean all or most of them are. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
I would take more time to respond to you and argue with you in depth if you were actually worth arguing with. But arguing with you is worthless. If your previous post was your last one, I’m glad to see you go. Farewell.
Yeah I know I shouldn’t have but holy fucking shit was that just a steaming pile of fail sauce wrapped in a shit sandwich and topped with the condensation off his icy anti-social malevolent heart.
That’s the problem with these threads, new people will keep coming in, getting angry with shit that he’s said, and responding before they get to the bit where everyone else is agreeing to freeze out the tedium troll, because people read the comments in order from first to last.
To clarify – some trolls are tasty to nom on, although not very nutritious. They’re basically Twinkies made of misogyny and angry frustrated entitlement. Trolls like this one, though, are no fun to chew on.
Yeah, it’s one thing when that results in reviving a conversation, friendly disagreement or debate from earlier, or returns the thread to fandom or critters. That’s the status quo around these parts, getting a troll frozen out takes slightly longer.
Hm…kittens? I’m going to bed here soon but first!
Teeny tiny tapir saved by mouth to snout CPR! http://www.zooborns.com/zooborns/2012/10/mouth-to-snout-cpr-saves-tiny-tapir.html
I even enjoy trolls who I think are wrong about everything but who’re sincere in their wrongness. Arguing with them can be fun, and it’s educational for lurkers. Lulz trolls, though, are a complete waste of time, and usually very boring to read. It’s like watching a movie that wants to be funny but isn’t over and over again.
But without the redeeming factors of, say, The Lost Boys.
If a bunch of hot trolls showed up posting pictures of themselves in black leather and eyeliner, I would never look at another website ever again.
Boring trolls are more like being stuck on a plane that’s playing American Pie on loop for a 12 hour flight.
Oh please, Brz ain’t gone. Brz can’t stick a flounce for SHIT; he’s already claimed he’s leaving twice before and failed, I doubt he’ll find the third.
He won’t go away as long as people are responding to him, though.
Nah, he came back JUST to bitch about how we were talking about cats and computer games. Trust me, if he comes back, it’s on him.
Now, I realize why every day the only thing I want is to take the first plane and go home.
Yes. Please do, Brz. Please go back to the mothership, where you are integrated, cool, and set men’s genitals on fire. I’m sure your planet is a very nice, manly planet, full of chest hair, berets, and hibbity hoo.
RE: burgundy
If NWO wore leather pants, the industry as a whole would be finished.
NWO wearing leather pants is an image I really, really did not need, thankyouverymuch!
😀
I did say hot. Since I’m imagining boring trolls with the redeeming characteristics of the Lost Boys, after all.
I think the Venn Diagram of “hot guys” and “internet trolls” may be two completely separate circles that don’t even vaguely brush up against each other.
Yeah, I don’t think of “hot” and “troll” in the same sentence except as an example of an oxymoron (with the emphasis on “moron” in the case of trolls).
I think the Venn Diagram of “hot guys” and “internet trolls” may be two completely separate circles that don’t even vaguely brush up against each other./i>
Too bad. Brushing against a diagram is probably the most action a troll sees in a year!
The troll circle may however have lots to say about how much of an asshole the hot guy circle is.
