Thunderf00t exemplifies what’s happened to roughly half of the Internet Atheists: he’s convinced himself that he’s the smartest, most rational being around because he’s made a hobby out of refuting the most foolish and inane ideas out there, like creationism, and is now proceeding on the assumption that the mediocre level of thought needed to see through creationism is sufficient to tear down anything that does not happen to match his unchallenged predispositions.

Wait, what? If some people are naturally inclined to commit murder should they be allowed to do that too?

Cassandra, to be fair, we have all been talking to Bad for a few days… Being specific was a necessity.

Here’s another one: Roosh The Douche admits he can’t bang Dennmark. Why? Because women are more equal there. (no, really… he says it straight up;

“Unfortunately, we have to accept that they go hand-in-hand, that we can’t fulfill basic human rights for all without viewing everyone as equal,” Roosh writes. “That’s fine for most people, but I’ve spent way too much time happily surviving in the jungle to pack my bags and move into the zoo.”

…. As the local resident Dane (Are there others? If so, replace with: “As a local resident Dane”), I want to thank Pecunium for finding that link.

I just spent 20 minutes literally, as in this actually happened, curled up on the floor while laughing. My cat has taken poking my leg with its nose, in an attempt to make sure I have not actually suffered a complete nervous breakdown.

It’s just so… wrong on so many levels. Not like Denmark is paradise, or anything, but at the very least, let me assure you, dear reader, the people around me in their early twenties and younger and older both are having a lot of sex.
But apparently not with Roosh.

Some people have a necrophiliac orientation. Why oh why doesn’t our commumisandrist justice system allow them to kill people so that they can have sex with the corpses?

…well. That worked out far better in theory than in practice. <.< I guess my enormous ASCII emoticon was so horrified by the proceedings that it melted.

Loved the troll-fighting article. And yours, SomeGreyBloke! I learned so much about who/what rapes women from tF00t’s words. Apparently environments rape women:

That is, the statement [“If you have been raped, the most important thing to remember is that it was not your fault.”] reduces women to the level of passive objects who have no control whatsoever over their environment.

Drunk women rape themselves:

You do something when you’re drunk, that’s YOUR responsibility, no matter whether you’re a guy or a girl.

And parts 2 and 3 make it clear that inhuman rape-sexual scary monsters in the bushes rape women. Hell, everybody and everything seems to rape women other than average men off the street.

I think if you put leading dots in front of every line of ASCII, instead of spaces, it should work :).

Content warning: talking about Dunderf00t’s words in the takedown:

From part 6 of somegreybloke’s takedown (which is excellent by the way) TFt says:

A mountain lion, with a cub, that was stalking me. I played the game for real stakes.

I just cannot read that last sentence as anything but: “Yeah, when I did that whole not acting like a victim risk-assessment thing, it was for something real not some silly concern over being raped!” Seriously, that’s impossible to read in any other way than diminishing the impact/trauma of rape.

Also, (this might not make sense, fyi, it’s hard to explain my brain thoughts today) given this is coming from an atheist, who doesn’t believe in life after death and if he’d been eaten by the mountain lion he wouldn’t know/care, it’s ironic (in a FUCK YOU TFt way) that he’s being all preachy about “real stakes” when people who get raped still have to live with the consequences afterward.

I’m not an actual Dane, but I am pretty darn Danish genetically, which is why I should never be exposed to direct sunlight. My mother was born in the US, but in a small town that was entirely Danish. We grew up eating æbleskiver My (male) ancestors hunted the lutefisk for us.

I’m so glad that I inherited my skin tone from the (Welsh) side of my Dad’s family rather than ending up with the spontaneously combusts in direct sunlight skin that some Scots share with some Scandinavians. I can’t even imagine how hellish Saudi would have been for anyone who burns easily.

^.^ Viscaria, I couldn’t not mention them, the way that the city came together to help after it was pretty awesome.
