350. Clearly people cannot easily associate the names

Mon Apr 14, 2014, 05:20 PM

Apr 2014

Since they have repeatedly speculated falsely, as is demonstrated by the alert indicating I was Iverglas and another suggesting I was the BB referenced in the Duckies site, when I hadn't even joined DU at that time. That people do not care that they have falsely maligned people reveals the nature of their characters.

I most certainly will not name people. It would be rude, malicious, and hypocritical of me. I will not engage in the same behavior I criticize others for. My point was that this entire discussion is transparently about antipathy toward certain individuals, in part ideologically based, and devoid of principal. It is not a righteous defense of truth but rather, as Skinner so aptly called it, a "meta shit show."

I will also point out I spoke out against a similar swarm on backwoodsbob a week or so ago, despite the fact he and I have had major disagreements and the guy has expressed animosity toward me.

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

I think this blogger Madam Mossfern Apr 2014 #44

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

Thank you very much for this post. TransitJohn Apr 2014 #72

link to all these posts that say "all white people are racist" CreekDog Apr 2014 #187

I understand her need Shankapotomus Apr 2014 #166

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

Even Skinner calls this thread a "meta shitshow" cyberswede Apr 2014 #325

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

Thanks for the links. They absolutely back up what I have stated. boston bean Apr 2014 #386

I actually laughed out loud. pintobean Apr 2014 #387

Don't scare the good doggie. boston bean Apr 2014 #388

And thank you again for posting and linking to a very well reasoned concern of mine. boston bean Apr 2014 #393

Why would anyone be held to a different standard than others on the board. boston bean Apr 2014 #397

Yeah, Hof is just ducky. /nt pintobean Apr 2014 #398

HoF is fine. I suggest if it bothers you so dog danged much, trash it please and forever it will be boston bean Apr 2014 #399

This is the first you've heard about Duckies? BainsBane Apr 2014 #418

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

Your curt thank you is included in the link. pintobean Apr 2014 #479

Actually the person sent me the PM BainsBane Apr 2014 #480

Send it to me. pintobean Apr 2014 #483

They banned you "quickly"? opiate69 Apr 2014 #461

That is a lot of clicks maddezmom Apr 2014 #462

Indeedy, it is! opiate69 Apr 2014 #463

More quickly than the men's group banned me BainsBane Apr 2014 #465

One in this thread talked a ton of smack about at least 2 RiffRandell Apr 2014 #476

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

Thank you for this very revealing thread. zappaman Apr 2014 #485

It's been a blast, hasn't it? pintobean Apr 2014 #486

That comment more than anything reveals BainsBane Apr 2014 #487

Where's that pm? pintobean Apr 2014 #488

I will not betray a confidence BainsBane Apr 2014 #489

How funny since you tried to at CC. nt RiffRandell Apr 2014 #491

What confidence did I betray? BainsBane Apr 2014 #494

Oh, I think a lot of DUers pintobean Apr 2014 #501

I have no confidence with you BainsBane Apr 2014 #502

Let's go back to the mail I sent you. pintobean Apr 2014 #505

I see no evidence that you side with me BainsBane Apr 2014 #506
