As for your massive PM, I have several other novels I need to get through before I wade through that. You've bragged to me about not bothering to read stuff I've sent you, so I'm not sure why I'm under any obligation to hurry up and read one of your your gimungous wall-o-texts.

I will say this- any collaboration outside of DU with previously banned people, on the topic of how to get back on DU or anything else, I'm not aware of, nor have I been a party to. I barely have the time or inclination to give DU all my DU attention, talking endlessly about it elsewhere isn't really MY thing.

I responded to one point and one point only in this subthread, your "omniscience" quote. And like you, I didn't come into this thread until a link was posted to a discussion with a member who got a time out for, among other things, personally attacking me and calling me a bigot, and who was treated by some here as if he was the victim- for engaging in his own spectacular meltdown.

Is this blog post intolerant of the transgendered? [View all] TransitJohn Apr 2014 OP

Never heard of it, nor... 99Forever Apr 2014 #1

I don't think it is a hate blog, it's a feminist blog TransitJohn Apr 2014 #2

Okay. 99Forever Apr 2014 #5

That's what I was thinking, but I also think it's intolerant and bigoted. eom TransitJohn Apr 2014 #7

Then we are in agreement. 99Forever Apr 2014 #8

Yes it is. Unfortunately there is a huge undercurrent of transphobia in some feminist circles. NuclearDem Apr 2014 #9

my guess is the tiny subset of feminists who hate men, will only see a transgendered female as a man dionysus Apr 2014 #76

There is an even larger overt current of transphobia... NCTraveler Apr 2014 #429

I think that's a bigotted attitude. TDale313 Apr 2014 #46

Wow CFLDem Apr 2014 #47

Of course. She's no better than people of color agitating against gay marriage. nomorenomore08 Apr 2014 #49

TERFS can fuck right the fuck off. But I question your motives for linking to an obscure blog LeftyMom Apr 2014 #50

Again with the accusations as to my motive. TransitJohn Apr 2014 #55

"I question your motives" is not an accusation. It's a question. LeftyMom Apr 2014 #56

Nope, just tired of passive-aggressive accusations. TransitJohn Apr 2014 #58

Personally I'm tired of MRAs in on a progressive website. LeftyMom Apr 2014 #59

Yeah, watching them troll here and then being accused of being one of them sucks TransitJohn Apr 2014 #60

Yes ismnotwasm Apr 2014 #51

That's what I was trying to do with the OP and my responses, but TransitJohn Apr 2014 #54

We have a lot of bad feelings between feminists and different POV's here ismnotwasm Apr 2014 #64

Just FYI: Transgendered is not a word. The proper word is transgender. See link below. Zorra Apr 2014 #169

The word isn't used as an adjective in my thread title, it's used as a noun. TransitJohn Apr 2014 #171

I can't seem to find a word "transgendered" defined as a noun in any dictionary, Zorra Apr 2014 #194

I agree. hrmjustin Apr 2014 #326

There are a lot META shitshows on DU maddezmom Apr 2014 #328

Perhaps it's only a "meta shitshow" for certain members. RiffRandell Apr 2014 #334

Do you think there are people here who DON'T think it's a "meta shitshow?" cyberswede Apr 2014 #335

I think several people miss meta. RiffRandell Apr 2014 #336

I agree, except... cyberswede Apr 2014 #339

Better here than in a protected group where people can't stick up for themselves... Violet_Crumble Apr 2014 #369

You are talking about people here in this thread who can't stick up for themselves. boston bean Apr 2014 #370

Which ones? Last time I checked everyone can post in GD n/t Violet_Crumble Apr 2014 #371

look again. boston bean Apr 2014 #373

I did. I'm not understanding what yr getting at... Violet_Crumble Apr 2014 #374

If they've been locked out they can't. boston bean Apr 2014 #375

Are you talking about seabeyond? Violet_Crumble Apr 2014 #376

Well, she certainly can't respond to the hundreds of posts made after a hidden, or yours could she? boston bean Apr 2014 #380

Then she should be more careful not to get her posts hidden... Violet_Crumble Apr 2014 #381

And people should not be disruptive in groups. boston bean Apr 2014 #382

Your group has a Statement Of Purpose pintobean Apr 2014 #383

That is bull. People are blocked for being disruptive and hostile to feminism. boston bean Apr 2014 #384

"disruptive" pintobean Apr 2014 #385

Do you have any idea how many DUers pintobean Apr 2014 #420

I assume anyone who reads there would BainsBane Apr 2014 #421

You were trashing DUers there. pintobean Apr 2014 #432

You are not DUers BainsBane Apr 2014 #433

I am pintobean. I am a DUer. pintobean Apr 2014 #437

You are one, singular BainsBane Apr 2014 #439

Well, I can't tell you what MADem thought pintobean Apr 2014 #444

I felt similarly at the time BainsBane Apr 2014 #445

You went to the enemy pintobean Apr 2014 #447

They seemed very pleased to have her posting, NOT. boston bean Apr 2014 #448

Why don't you conduct a poll. pintobean Apr 2014 #451

Why don't you? There are people here on DU who are members in good active standing boston bean Apr 2014 #453

I'm not trying to imply anything pintobean Apr 2014 #456

Why do you so dutifully read the site then? BainsBane Apr 2014 #460

Dutifully? pintobean Apr 2014 #464

I did not go to trash talk DUers BainsBane Apr 2014 #450

Hmm.. didn't posting over there used to be a ToS violation? opiate69 Apr 2014 #435

Nothing in TOS about it now BainsBane Apr 2014 #440

Yes.. if only I had used past tense, opiate69 Apr 2014 #442

Why would you even mention it BainsBane Apr 2014 #443

Why then, O brawling love! O loving hate! O any thing, of nothing first create! opiate69 Apr 2014 #446

I don't think I can take all this adoration from BainsBane Apr 2014 #452

That site is disgusting. How the fuck are DUers on it? LittleBlue Apr 2014 #449

If you're going to pass judgments BainsBane Apr 2014 #454

And if you were just defending yourself, that would be one thing LittleBlue Apr 2014 #455

That is not an accurate representation of my comments there BainsBane Apr 2014 #458

I think it's a pretty accurate representation of your interaction. As that site currently msanthrope Apr 2014 #466

I confronted them because of their stalking of me BainsBane Apr 2014 #467

And it's my right to comment on the method you chose to confront them..... msanthrope Apr 2014 #469

That's the problem. pintobean Apr 2014 #471

Oh, Good god. BainsBane Apr 2014 #474

They rightfully put down those bunch of creeps for stalking behavior boston bean Apr 2014 #477

I think it comes down to BainsBane Apr 2014 #478

I remember when meta got shut down, admin instructed GD hosts to "be ruthless" with meta threads Warren DeMontague Apr 2014 #338

Unfortunately, hosts can only weigh OPs, not replies. cyberswede Apr 2014 #340

So why suggest the OP be deleted? RiffRandell Apr 2014 #341

I think it's turned into such an ugly display... cyberswede Apr 2014 #346

I agree it sure has turned into an ugly display! RiffRandell Apr 2014 #348

It'd be nice if the standards could be applied equally & consistently, even just to OPs. For starts. Warren DeMontague Apr 2014 #342

I think the GD hosts were trying to work out some things... cyberswede Apr 2014 #344

Thosec certain members include Skinner. BainsBane Apr 2014 #345

He posted he didn't want to get involved. RiffRandell Apr 2014 #349
