Reddit incels celebrate deaths of “normies” in Las Vegas mass shooting

@Skeptic
Just in case you are one of the confused social enablers out there in the milieu here I have an explanation for things here that I hope helps. Banning you matters (and that’s up to David and any people that he chooses to be persuaded by in what is their social space here at WHTM) and here is why.

You have a fundamental problem here. This is about what actually happens and what is required to fix the problem (lets use social behavior that leads to things like neglect of rape kits by governmental authorities). The people here are concerned with language that actually fixes the problem in it’s real-world manifestations. So any negative feelings you might have are secondary to the features of the problem and what is required to fix it.

This is literally a numbers issue and a social exposure issue (you are mucking with that last bit by filling the social space with criticism of victims, putting social pressure on people already under social pressure, and uplifting people who are at the very least adding to the culture that makes taking rape seriously hard). If one wants to change how society acts and believes one has to put pressure on their social space. So I and others basically think about what a rapist needs in social spaces in order to keep on raping and I deny them that. In this case this community will eventually put pressure on the social dynamics that lead to neglected and abandoned rape kits. Instead of relentless criticism for people that only seem to care for the social forces that enable rapists we need focus on rapists and how they are able to rape.

At some point a community like this will tell you that enough is enough and eject you if you don’t change your behavior. You can feel sorry for people that yearn for sexual contact, but how you choose to socially support them matters. Your contribution to our collective social spaces and our reaction to it matters. The people in the MRA, Incel, MGTOW and other toxic communities are actually out in society interacting with others. I get to strategically plan for that.

I’m saying this as a person who feels what they are feeling. I’m in a relationship and in the same situation but we’re dealing with it with therapy (individual and couples) and introspection about the problems we inherited from society. Yes depression is involved, depression does not excuse the behavior in the article above. Depression like PTSD is one of those natural parts of how brains make minds that we label an illness because that’s how we look at medicine. What you do while depressed matters. Stop continually socially uplifting the people that are literally contributing to the problem of taking rape seriously in society. How you work on depression as a problem matters. What you are doing is not how you do it.

Which leads us to humor. Humor is how minds twist feeling in a social context. It’s purpose is in part to make us feel better about something and much of social conflict is humor. Mockery, sarcasm, and many other things are social weapons. That’s why the racist, sexist, and other bigoted flavored jokes are an imminent social problem. If you actually care about this stuff and want the world to be different you will change your behavior. Look at the image weirwoodtreehugger posted. How do you plan on changing that?

Speaking, talking, texting, memeing (people just love their iconography), it all matters. Many of the 1:10 people in the general flow will be acting as predators towards others in the social flow of everything including the internet. We get to plan for that.

Either you lack the basic reading comprehension required to participate in a conversation or you’re a shitposter yourself.

Shitposter. Look at the way Skeptic keeps bringing in non sequiturs, like the “attempted rape” bit. Nobody was talking about attempted rape! But Skeptic brings that in so as to stir the pot more.

The trolliness of this troll becomes more transparent with every post.

I have to mention that I mangled this bit in my previous post.

Instead of relentless criticism for people that only seem to care for the social forces that enable rapists we need focus on rapists and how they are able to rape.

I’m not sure what I was going for there anymore.

For some odd reason I’m reminded of an old cat food commercial. It went something like this: Meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow, can we please ban this jackass now?

@WWTH And now he’s seriously back pedalling. 😀

@Kupo

Nice. I liked how the Ghostbusters movie had essentially a Nice Guy (TM) as the villain.

I also appreciate that the stereotypical “dumb blonde” was Chris Hemsworth, and not just because I could seriously just watch that man read the phone book, assuming he also took his shirt off while doing it.

Although I suspect he’ll just ignore the question. He’s ignored me this whole thread so far I think.

He’s ignored me since day 1. He’s ignoring most people, though – he seems to be just shitposting into the void most of the time.

@ PaganReader

Thanx for that story!

I’m not sure what I was going for there anymore.

I understood it to mean focus on the people committing the crime and not on their “rights” to brag about having committed it (putting too sharp a point on your point, here….)

Skeptic is an “armchair intellectual”…. They can recite the terms that the discipline uses, and can even string them together in sentences, but lacks the understanding of the discipline which would allow them to make a rational argument.

I’m reminded of Star Trek IV, Spock’s quote about simulating whale sounds… “we could imitate the sounds but not the language… we would be responding in gibberish!”

Thanks, David!

Thank you, David. Hope you’re feeling better.
