So the Daily Stormer, everyone’s favorite “funny” neo-Nazi shit site, has weighed in on International Women’s Day. In a post (archived here) ostensibly covering the massive Women’s Day strikes in Spain, but which is actually just an excuse to talk shit, DS contributor “Roy Batty” declares that “[w]omen have been really fucking up in the West.”
“Batty” offers a nice long list of the terrible things (and allegedly terrible things) that he thinks women have foisted on Western countries.
[H]ere are some of the benefits that brave, stronk and empowered wimmins have brought to our societies:
college false rape allegations
mass migration from shithole countries
divorce rape
school shooters
fines for not wearing bicycle helmets
consumerism
wages cut in half
herpes
fat acceptance
speech codesSo thanks, ladies?
Damn these dastardly women and their herpes-infused bicycle helmets!
No, but seriously, I can’t even talk to Western women anymore. So I’m not going to be wishing them a Happy Women’s Day. Because they’ve squandered any goodwill I could have felt towards them.
Here’s to replacing this squandered holiday with White Sharia day in the West very, very soon.
“White sharia” is alt-right slang for white dudes having total patriarchal control of “their” women in a future white supremacist ethnostate.
“Batty” would also like to have a couple of other holidays added to the calendar.
If we’re going to have International Woman’s Day though, there should also be an “International Burn a Witch Day” and “International Shame a THOT Day.”
It’s only fair that we reward AND punish.
Huh. These proposed holidays sound more than a little bit like MRA deadbeat grandaddy Paul Elam’s infamous “Bash a Violent Bitch Month.” Maybe the Daily Stormer got the idea from him? Or maybe it’s just that terrible minds think alike — and that these terrible minds love to think of allegedly uppity women getting taken down a peg or two.
Hey, I can play this game, too.
Happy International MRAs and Nazis Eat Shit Day!
Long, triggering article. Very long, probably more triggering video.

Not sure why I can’t copy and paste the URL, but this is on Jezebel.com.
Mish:
Seriously. It’s some of the strongest ownage I’ve seen in a while. It persuaded me to finally pledge to his Patreon.
Thankyou for the very funny links. They filled an hour of my life with laughter.
The mirth and feeling of support is needed right now. I feel a bit like its 1938 and I’m a gay Jewish gypsy communist living in Poland. This is an exaggeration I hope.
misophistry, here is a song you might like. what you said reminded me of it!
https://youtu.be/mOCeiAYzuo8
Its a great song and I liked it. Then I read the comments.
“subhuman”
But there were also many good comments, so I should not be so downhearted. But I have extra reasons to be low.
I’m currently off my weed. I found it an effective way to block out the misery of the world, but it smells, costs too much and my dealer is a Britain first racist married to a self loathing honey badger. Its been 10 days now and smoking keeps invading my dreams. But I really can’t stand these people and besides I need to save ££. Sad.
oh no I’m sorry the comments are so bad(( it is meant to be a hopeful song. YouTube is full with nazis though
@Kat
You … you mean you’re not? I just sort of assumed, you know? ?
@Moggie
That dramatic pause before the Big Soy Reveal!
(Argh, I’m so torn on whose Patreon to pick! And I don’t even donate enough to the Mammoth as it is. HBomberGuy? ShaunJen? Maria Popova? Why can’t I have more of the moneys?)
@misophistry
Ugh, that sounds like a horrible situation you’re in right now. I’m really sorry.
I watched Valya’s awesome video and carefully avoided the comments ?
Never read the comments… Unless its that twitter thread link above!

Eeeeegh, that’s a tough read. I gotta be honest, I don’t really understand this trend in porn where the guy puts his hand around the actress’ throat mid-coitus and starts choking her. The gagging is bad enough and has been a trend since forever, but this throat-grabbing thing I’ve only started seeing in the past five years or so. I’m familiar with both actresses (Nixon’s from Brandon Manitoba, Canadian content FTW!) and enjoy most of their work (pay for it too!). But their penchant for the rough stuff isn’t my bag and I’m always a tad disappointed when a scene starts off fun and lively and then the guy just takes hold of her by the throat for leverage. Frankly, it’s off-putting and a little scary that it’s creeping into the mainstream, particularly if men don’t understand how carefully these scenes are prepared and directed.
I’m also kinda skeptical when the actresses say they enjoy it. I get that auto-erotic asphyxiation is a thing, but I have a tough time fathoming that it actually feels good to have any object that large rammed down one’s windpipe. *shrug* But then I’m a furry, so different strokes for different folks.
Regardless, the mainstream porn industry really needs more of the kind of cultural critique that Aurora Snow has been providing for the Daily Beast. A view from former insiders on its inner workings I think would go a long way to dispelling some of the myths, particularly if we’re shouldering them with the sexual education of… I was going to say North America, but pretty much the whole world at this point.
And on a similar topic, the Ontario PC Party elected as its leader… the brother of Toronto’s former hard-drinking crack mayor.
And with Kathleen Wynne’s popularity in the toilet, he’s probably going to run the province.
What’s he about? Well, turning back the dial on sex ed to the 70s. 1870s or 1970s? Take your pick. Neither are great. And when we look at the Jezebel story, it makes me really nervous to prevent teachers from being frank with students when asked about these topics.
I’ve mentioned this before (Jenora can attest), but I have a hard time wrapping my brain around Ontario provincial politics. Because it seems that there’s zero consistency in what it is Ontarians want. They want cheap power, they just don’t want the plants near them and but then get upset when they’re cancelled at great expense. They hate Wynne for privatizing Hydro One, so they turn to the party that privatizes things ideologically. They demand better transit in Toronto, but it has to be subways, and only if they don’t have to pay for them with higher taxes. They hate corruption, but throw their lot in with the family that had repeated conflict of interest allegations levied against it.
It’d be nice if these people just owned up to their resentment politics. They hate Wynne more than they ever hated McGuinty (wondering if her being an open lesbian has anything to do with it) and they hate Trudeau just as much (because they think he’s gay too). Just reminding folks on Twitter that Mike Harris existed and effed up the province’s education system while I was in it had all the excuses coming out: he was simultaneously wrong, right, great and not a real Conservative.
We get it, you hate the gay woman and are willing to screw over public services to avenge yourself on her. Just come clean. Stop pretending you have principles about “deficits” and “corruption” and admit your resentments. It makes everything easier!
So yeah, fun times ahead for Canada’s biggest province….
Now you have me worried. My life is literally at stake here — I depend on ODSP, and the Cons have a penchant for slashing things like that. I barely squeak by as it is. If Cons win the election I will probably be unable to keep myself fed and sheltered not long after. At that point I’d have at most months left to live, since the winters here are not survivable without shelter.
Is there anything I can do (without spending money I don’t have or using a credit card I don’t have) to push things toward a different outcome? (NDP victory, say?)
Oh yes, NIMBY. Nothing new about that! People want prisons, but not near them. People want there to be fewer homeless people on the streets because they don’t want to look at or talk to them, but do they want subsidized housing near them? Nope!
And of course everyone wants less spending and lower deficits. But not without actually cutting anything.
Alexandra Pelosi asked Republicans in NJ (who were asking for more federal $ to clean up after hurrican Sandy) what they wanted cut and the answers were funny
I don’t know if conservatives in Canada do this, but this is how in the US you get Republicans running on cutting PBS and art grants. They don’t actually want the big ticket items cut so they think cutting a few small things they don’t see the point of will magically balance budgets.
Conservatives don’t do critical thinking very well, do they?
@Surplus to Requirements
That would be nice, but alas, Horvath seems MIA. I live in Wynne’s riding now, so I’m stuck voting for her, but there might be other options elsewhere.
I can only hope Wynne hammers Dougie hard on his grotesque policies and sticks to the policy problems the Cons cause for Ontarians. She doesn’t need to get deep in the weeds, but reminding Ontario what the Cons did last time they were in power might have them thinking twice.
@WWTH
The NIMBYism is strong in Ontario. I have no idea how this province functions at all with how entitled its exurbs are. But then our city kicked out the squeegee kids, so we’re ones to talk….
Hmmm, somewhat. The national Cons hate the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and have been slowly hollowing it out from within. But when it comes to budget cuts, the provincial Cons hit education and they hit welfare. Sadly, the TDSB coughs up any number of corrupt a-holes abusing public dollars *coughDonnaQuancough*, so smacking around education system gets a lot of mileage for them.
But given who the Fords are, they tend to get the most mileage out of contempt for expertise. Tell me if you’ve heard this one: “The Liberals are out of touch elites who don’t respect the ordinary taxpayer. It’s time to get common sense solutions for government excess, waste, fraud and abuse!”
That’s the kind of brilliant thinking that gives you a $3.2 billion one-stop subway.
You know, scrolling through the comments on the Jezebel article Kat mentioned and seeing the pushback on people making flippant “what did she expect to happen?” comments… it strikes me that the takeaway from this is that adult entertainers need better workplace protections. There really seems to be a disconnect with the adult entertainment industry where it’s a multi-billion dollar juggernaut that is embedded so deep in the culture, yet it’s almost expected that it won’t be treated with the same kind of employment standards, probably from a combination of it being a taboo subject to talk about openly combined with a prejudice against the women that work in it as being somehow less valuable as people. This keeps it on the fringes of polite society, inches from breaking into the mainstream, but there’s always a discrete distance whenever an quote-unquote “respectable” outlet like NBC does a story on the industry.
The industry players won’t like it, but for the protection of the on-camera talent, women, men and enbies alike, let’s get them the same kind of worker protections demanded of any other high-risk job.

There goes my Model Minority status. Any other Asian posters want to add?
So, three package bombs have gone off in Austin and all the victims have been black or Latin. The police haven’t said anything about suspected motive but it certainly looks like it could be someone from the MAGA portion of the country.
So, Putin has come out pinning the blame for Russian hacking on… Dun dun dun… THE JOOZ.
I’m not kidding.
All hand delivered – no postal service involved.
Virtually in a straight line.
Follow on from the one 10 days ago, which also killed an African American man.
If it’s not a hate crime, someone is working really hard to make it look like one.
Edit – this is to wwth
Putin also blamed Muslims
At least that’s what I’m assuming he meant by Tatar.
he specifically attacks tatars not because they are Muslims, because there are Russian muslims, in kavkaz for example. but he attacks them because they resist Russian occupation of Crimea and many people who fight this occupation are tatar activists. his occupation already killed tatars in Crimea. he wishes to paint them as enemies and rebels. Jews, Tatars and Ukrainians is Putin’s list of enemies, but it is not specifically anti muslim. he before made statements to wish happy eid to Russian muslims. just not tatar Muslims.
sorry missed edit – I don’t mean to say that putin may or may not hate muslims, or defend him. but Tatar identity is something very specific, more than simply Islam, with specific history and meaning. I remember someone said before Crimea is Russia’s ideology – I don’t 100% understand what its meant, but Crimea is Tatar, Tatar is Crimean. and in eyes of putin, this is a barrier, and he must remove it.
Thanks for the clarification.
In any case it was an excuse to post an Aliya Mustafina gif cause she’s Tatar.

it is a great gif ? also, I’m sure she disapproves very much about what putin said.
I commented sarcastically on a Facebook story about Tucker Carlson recently. Somebody with an empty FB page (‘private’) mocked me as a beta cuck soy boy.
I responded by marveling, ‘oh my goodness, you people are real?! This is like seeing someone making a flint arrowhead!’ and so on. This site has prepared me well for the responsibility of mocking the mockable.
Is a Jew with Russian citizenship not a Russian?
