I've already pointed out that you post TERFy shit because you have a history of posting TERF talking points - something you've already done a couple of posts further up on this page, and the biotruths shit you posted in the TERF thread. I've also told you knock it off with the sealioning, and if you're unable to heed warnings, on your head may it be.Coco wrote:Im asking so I understand what upset you.cashead wrote:Holy shit, word-for-word TERF talking points.

Re: Who is buying our news coverage ?
Also, any even slight google should tell you that TERF is not an insult, but is actually coined by the people who wanted to be known as that. Personally, I'm a fan of the term FART (Feminism Appropriating Reactionary Transphobe), which is far more enjoyable and accurate, but I do tend to prefer letting people choose their own label.
Claiming TERF as an insult is a form of faux-moral outrage about how mean the other people are being when you're *just* *asking* *questions* - oh so hurtful, so much for the tolerant left! I mean, I'm assuming you wouldn't know anything about such tactics, given you are *genuinely* an innocent naif who is just asking questions. So, rest assured, referring to you as a TERF is not the place where people are insulting you.

Actually, I'd say that TERF, like Woke (obviously, not in content) and various other labels, is typically used as a badge of pride for some, and an insult for others.
I'd also suggest that it simply doesn't mean what it's acronym suggests it means. Plenty of TERFs are barely feminist, let alone radically so - so yes, FART is a much better acronym for those.

On the other hand, FARTs get really angry when they're called TERFs.
It also consumes them and they get big-time brainworm infections as well.

The difference is that no-one called themselves "Woke" (or "Politically Correct") as a compliment - they started off as terms poking fun before being weaponised by the right. I don't believe anyone uses them as an unironic badge of pride.Which Tyler wrote:Actually, I'd say that TERF, like Woke (obviously, not in content) and various other labels, is typically used as a badge of pride for some, and an insult for others.

TERFs named themselves. Plus, it's not used as an insult in terms of it meaning something else or something untrue to the wielder. It means exactly the same to me as it does to a TERF - they discriminate against a minority because they think they're awful and don't want them to exist - we both are calling the same thing the same thing, the difference is that I think that it's reprehensible and they think it's fine.

A] I'm pretty sure it was the other way around with woke - being a self-designation before being an attack weapon.Puja wrote:The difference is that no-one called themselves "Woke" (or "Politically Correct") as a compliment - they started off as terms poking fun before being weaponised by the right.

B] You're absolutely wrong about anyone using it as an unironic badge of pride. I certainly do, and have for a few years, and I know plenty of others who self-identify as "woke" it literally means "Awake to the plight of others"

I mean I googled it of course, but I think you're not using the term correctly.
Pretty sure Coco wasn't sealioning, she just wanted to know why you randomly started attacking her.

Re: Who is buying our news coverage ?
I think that was the first ban Ive ever had here! Somehow a thread about terrible world news coverage turned in to a thread about trans terfy sealion farts or something. The mind boggles.
It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.

Me too. But don't talk about it public, mods won't like that, do it all in private messages where no one else can see!
It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

It's funny how the two who have a history of posting shit endorsing a massive curtailing of the right of a vulnerable group to exist in public seem to apparently be the two biggest victims of persecution in existence. Fucking get over it.

Re: Who is buying our news coverage ?
Ive never once said trans people should not exist, in public or in private... ever. I do not believe that. I would love for you, cashead, to show me where I have said trans people shouldnt exist. You have no idea what I think about it and have never bothered to ask... you assume. Im asking you kindly to stop with the libel. Thank you.
