Worst of Social Justice

[Askold]

Dude, there are SJWs trying to declare the Irish POC. Literally some of the whitest motherfuckers out there.

They're so deeply entrenched in their own incorrect view of race relations that instead of admitting that they need to change their views when confronted with evidence that it's wrong, they try to incorporate the new evidence into their world view in a way that still validates it. Instead of admitting that "white vs. POC" is an overly simplistic examination that falls apart outside of very specific locations and time periods, they try to add whiter and whiter people to the "POC" category.

by that logic, whites will end up being poc's, because you know.... white is a color...

did i just hear an sjw's head go pop?

We are talking about the people who invent their own personal pronouns and genders and sexual orientations just to feel special. They are already used to fuzzy logic and hypocrisy. White people being POC would not cause any kind of problems with them as long as they can think of some new-speak justification for it.

I'm clearly out of date on these sorts of things, I thought that SJWs were insisting that the Irish could never face discrimination, ever, since they're white.

Haven't you heard? The Irish are the niggers of europe. Skip to 1minute 3seconds for the relevant part.

Maybe it was the Sami, then.

I'm hoping this is a poe, but if not...

Thank you to Hof for telling me about that kind of shit a while back! I love how I now know bugchasing is a thing and there's quite a bit of erotic literature about it. I'll spare everyone else the mental images.

Poz, neg, breed me with your fuckvenom

Razorblade your boi-cunt so you'll absorb the bug better.

Horseshoe theory in action. The same claim about the Irish was made in the 1890's to justify discriminating against them.

That too. They don't always present a unified front.

Correct. The ones who declare that the Irish could never face discrimination will say the same for the Sami, as they feel that it's pure "white vs. POC" everywhere in all historical periods. Any evidence to the contrary is plainly ignored.

THESES guys, though? They see and acknowledge the evidence, but they're unwilling or unable to admit that their world view is biased. So instead of changing how they look at the world, they try to just slightly edit it to incorporate the new evidence. Instead of declaring that "white vs. POC" is incorrect, they declare "Certain white people are POC".

This discussion reminds me of a "cis-white" joke I heard on the Colbert Report the other night.

Edit - http://empathyprivilege.tumblr.com/ Lets see what kind of madness I can stir up. This should keep me amused all night long.

A minor example, but a girl who made an ordinarily good post about the Hobby Lobby ruling accused the person who sarcastically talked about companies being forced to pay for abortions as "ableist".

Ableist? It's misogyny you gibbon.

At about 15 minutes in:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhrcMTMPzT0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhrcMTMPzT0</a>

Some people accusing TotalBiscuit of being a misogynist because he said he couldn't tell between men and women in Papers, Please, as well as other things.  In his words: "this is why we can't have nice things."

There were people who accused SFDebris of being misogynist because of much he rags on Cpt. Janeway from Voyager.  Crazy Janeway is one of my favorite running themes of his Voyager reviews.

Maybe they assumed the commenter was male and was treating his comment as ableist because of he doesn't have to worry about getting pregnant?

Even then, the accusation makes the assumption that women are somehow inherently disabled for their ability to get pregnant.

Yeah, ableism is for things like mental and physical disabilities. Thinking that a person is inferior because they suffer from depression or refusing to make concessions for people in wheelchairs at your business is ableism. Saying that companies shouldn't provide birth control on their health care plans is not, and is so far from ableism that I don't even know how the connection could be made.
