So I had to re-ban a couple of long-banned trolls today, who had returned with new names and slightly different IP addresses but who gave themselves away with their behavior. And that got me thinking about the people — well, the MRAs and PUAs and other such charming folks — who regularly denounce me as an evil censor of FREE SPEECH.
In fact, when I ban people, I do so for good reasons: one of the two trolls I banned today was a longtime MRAish commenter here who eventually creeped everyone out by boasting about having sex with underage prostitutes; the other was a man of many sockpuppets known for angry, abusive meltdowns full of slurs.
Anyway, so I thought I’d give you all a glimpse into my “trash” folder. Here’s a sampling of comments from would-be first time commenters at Man Boobz that I felt would not add anything to the discourse here. But in the interests of FREE SPEECH I thought I’d give these “ideas” an airing today.
TRIGGER WARNING for violent and offensive language. (Sorry about the quality of the last two; you can click on them to see larger versions.)
Not all of the comments I trash are quite this awful. Some are only mildly violent or abusive. I tend to be a bit picky with people’s first comments, assuming that if someone posts a shitty first comment it’s not likely to get any better after that. There are a few banned commenters who stop by and try to post anyway, including one fellow who leaves endless comments trying to prove, as far as I can tell, that teenage girls are objectively hotter than women in their twenties and older.
And, of course, there are comments targeting individual women, whether these are giant cut-and-pasted rants about Anita Sarkeesian, vaguely threatening remarks aimed at other well-known internet feminists, or bizarre sexual comments about female MRAs from fans of theirs.
Once in a while I will get a comment from a feminist that resorts to violent language; I don’t let those comments through either.
And then there are the pictures people try to post in the comments. Below, one of the ones I actually let through, depicting me in a dress with some extremely tall dude. A quick Google image search reveals that it was originally posted online by regular A Voice for Men contributor Janet Bloomfield, in a blog post of hers from last year on Disney princesses. Stay classy, Men’s “Human Rights” Movement!
Anyway, the pictures I don’t let through are worse.
Atomic Wheelchair: why are you so gross? Why can’t you make a graph? Why do dudes like you even care about reproduction, when all you seem to do is bitch about child support and don’t seem like involved fathers? How many times a day do you get called creepy?
Im not trashing teenage moms, just noting that they should have access to good medical care and nutrition, like all pregnant women (and getting underage girls pregnant should not be encouraged holy crap).
@opium4themasses
That’s one way to interpret the hands 😉 Unless it was intentional on the artists part, I have a hard time telling. IMO, the David part of the drawing was kinda cute, but I don’t really care for whoever the beast is supposed to be. /rambles
“Accords to that graph, a newborn child is as attractive as a 25 year old.”
Ya know, now that you mention it, I have to wonder what data ‘reproductive value’ on the y-axis is measuring. Shouldn’t it be a flat zero until the average age of puberty, or maybe at least start at 10-12 years. Babies aren’t even producing/releasing gametes at all… :/
More brain bleach in the form of a baby tree kangaroo.
And baby chameleons! (One is clearly mimicking a coin.)
And a cute little dachshund!
@catgirl
Clarification is always good, but I didn’t read your earlier post as trashing teen moms. It seemed to be pretty clear (imo) you were just talking about the health risks, in comparison to atomic creeper (or w/e his name was) acting like teenage girls are ideal to have sex with (::barf::) b/c evolution.
Idk if I’m being clear or wordy or w/e today. I got up early and am now crashing, so if you guys think I’m being too incoherent I’ll get off.
Also, more proof that cats control the world: the continents are shaped like a cat coughing up a hairball!
(Sorry, Australia.)
FYI, I think neither catgirl or Maire are being even a little bit unclear or incoherent. I totally get what you both are saying!
@Marie if you hadn’t said, we’d never have known.
Seeing as I come from a family with a history of teenage pregnancy, child molestation, and incest, people like Atomic Wheelchair can just fuck right off with their assholery, kthx. Your “science” is just pedopologia that you feed yourself to justify your own desires. It’s a narcissitic, douchey way to view the most vulnerable members of our population.
In other words, go read a goddamn book about the horrible effects of molestation on children, and piss off.
Oh, by the way, in non-creepy news, today is the last day for bonus word count stuff on Shadowthon! If you want to sponsor a story and gain free stuff in the process, now is the time!
@ cloudiah
OMG the tiny widdle bebbie chameleons! Lookit at their tiny widdle curly tails!! Squee!
Regardless of reproduction, I’d think it’s pretty obvious that an adult would be able to raise a child far better given that they have maturity and resources. If he knew anything about evolution he would realize that the survival of humans was actually predicated on our ability to nurse children AFTER they were born because we traded having lots of babies for making one really good one. This required that babies had longer periods after birth of requiring constant care and attention to survive. In any case, we live in a modern society where “success” is kinda based not so much on how many children you have but what kind of resources you can bring to give your kid a leg-up in life. Teenagers haven’t even begun to earn for themselves this puts their future children at a disadvantage.
I also just chose to mostly ignore the fact that you (Atomic Wheelchair) are clearly just a paedophile trying to justify your predilection for children.
@titanblue
Sweet, my disguise as a not-totally-tired person is successful! XD
@auggz
I know you’re trying to make a point about how creepy the troll is, but can you please stop? Your starting to make me very uncomfortable.
Plus one of our trolls might answer your questions seriously, and no one wants to read that.
What a shock. Atomic Pedochair hasn’t come back to answer for himself. I wonder if he’s another sock from the previous thread. The one that was talking about adult women being used up.
@auggz
Yeah, I got that you were mad at the troll, I didn’t think you were trying to make a joke. Anyway, thanks.
Can I just say that I think David might have overdone the blusher in that drawing? I’m all for expressing your individuality through make-up but I prefer blusher on the cheekbones & raspberry pink is always a difficult shade to pull off.
Breaking news: MGTOW Forums has … [wait for it] … gone their own way.
I can’t help myself. I found a pdf of that text book so I can see the charts in their original context. I’m certain they don’t say what pedotroll claims they say. Still, I just can’t help myself.
Good luck, fromafar2013. GOOD LUCK.
And does this mean we never have to hear the MGTOW’s complaints again, cloudiah?

I first read that letter from Nacho whatever as saying he wanted the forums to be a FARCE to be reckoned with. Sounds about right!
I love that one of the few forum members he viewed as sensible and mature is named “womanhater.” Real mature. If someone like that represents the pinnacle of your movement, it’s a pretty shitty movement.
The AVfM post on MGTOW forums is full of so much laughage:
