As if I have any right to an opinion on it, nevertheless, I consider Quakers one of the few sects that actually follow Christian NT tenets.

3. Nice way to avoid the point. I included the quakers, partly as a joke but also partly because they tend to act in a way that most Christians don't (you know in emulation of Jesus as recorded in the Gospels)



I'm sorry, but how do Quakers not act in emulation of Jesus?

Davedan meant that Quakers in fact do act like Christians as depicted in the gospels, unlike a lot of modern day, self-described Christians. And the Quakers are disliked by a lot of self-described Christians because of it, I might add. They are seen as too liberal by many, and weird and "anarchic" because they don't have ordained pastors.

Okay, reading comprehension fail on my part.  I'm sorry.

By the way, I think this ought to be spun off into its own discussion.

Back on topic:

I wish I could control the erectness of my penis at will. That'd be awesome.

[guizonde]

somebody doesn't know about the fear-boner, or the random boner, or the awkward boner, or priapism, or tachycardia (yes, that can trigger it), or high blood pressure, or erectile dysfunction...

really, anybody who gets average sex-ed knows about this. besides, the wang is about as unpredictable as a d20. there's a reason viagra is so commonly prescribed.

tl;dr: the person in red clearly doesn't understand how it works.

Don't forget forcing someone to take Viagra. Like that one guy who got tied to a chair and raped repeatedly over a few days.

You forgot the morning-waking-up-with-a-piss-boner. Yeah. Even a lesbian has heard about that one. The boner denier either does not have a penis or is prepubescent. Color me shocked.

And not to mention that, even if a man does not have a boner, you can still rape him.

I'll leave the details to your imagination

From what I understand from doctors, that's really rare. If it's a legitimate rape, the male body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.

Why the fuck are you in college if you aren't going to listen to anything your professors say? I mean obviously there are shitheads in academia because there are shitheads everywhere, but if you have zero intention of listening to your professors' ""facts"" or of respecting their  ""intellectual" authority on anything" then why are you even there? If you already feel/know that you're 100% right 100% of the time just skip higher ed and get some job experience.

Job opportunities.

So, the people behind the "we're a culture, not a costume" campaign included a man from Appalachia this year.  A white man from Appalachia. 

(click to show/hide)

The results are as predictable as you think they are.

okay but first off are white appalachians gonna ignore the stigma black appalachians face, second off in a post thats about cultural appropriation and racist caricatures, why would u include a white person no matter the intent bc it seems A LOT like white people trying to invade SoC (Spaces of Color) like they could have used anyone but a white appalachian guy but u know go off sis!

fuck you. it is not as detrimental as the others. yall talk about appalachian folks like they’re some fuckin mystical got damn creature. they are fuckin white people. poor white people. yall punk ass clowns care more about these special snowflakes that are made fun of by yalls punk asses than the people who are actually the ones being oppressed. get the fuck outta here with that fuck shit.
do you fuckin understand?

Yeah the white people one reeeeeally isn’t that important.

it’s the token white person poster so that whites people will be less likely to call it racist. I know how ridiculous that is, trust me it makes me sick, but don’t blame the campaign makers

Hillbillies are on the list now? Oy. (Even though the people in Appalachia do have some serious problems, in which bias plays a part. But not every person there is white.)

White people wanna be oppressed so bad

The eagerness for attention IS DIGUSTING! & REVOLTING!

fucking hell who made the redneck one they need to be punched

Red Necks aren’t a culture. Their problem is that they have no culture.

what the fuck… is it saying like… redneck southern cousin lovers are oppressed? like sorry tim mcgraw i think you’re gonna be ok.

Basically, the majority of comments consist of variations of all of these.

[Sigmaleph]

I've sort of given up on most of SJ accepting that making fun of people over their ethnicity is wrong in general and not just when other people do it. But I thought they'd maybe get a little bit of that ~intersectionality~ they love so much and realise classism is an axis of oppression.

But nope! Haha, poor white people are hilarious.

[Askold]

Yay for hypocrisy! I think that "we are not a costume" campaign picture has managed to create the perfect explanation of why "power+prejudice" definition of racism does more harm than good.

I think these two are my favourites.

[Even Then]

I think the problem is that they put in this white Appalachian guy (a class stigma) next to a bunch of non white people (a race stigma), thus implying (possibly unintentionally) that the white guy's problem is racism and not classism. Poor design choice.
