Worst of Social Justice

You could just take the Kathleen Hanna approach. That works, too.

what's the kathleen hanna approach? is it because i said i'll distrust until proven trustworthy?

Kathleen Hanna was the lead singer of the pivotal punk bank Bikini Kill, which birthed a subgenre of punk known as Riot Grrrl. In the early 90's punk shows were notorious for sexual assaults, molestations, and even rape of girls and young women. This discouraged most women from attending punk shows or getting into the audience for fear of being victimized. Kathleen, being the in your face punk icon that she is, told the boys in the crowd to get to the back so that the girls could be in the front of the audience. She said that until girls could join other punk audiences without fear of assault, her shows would always be the safe space for women in punk. Her hard line stance with her audience, as well as having her boyfriend drop a major bomb on MTV after Woodstock 99, were crucial in causing other punk musicians to take the issue of sexual assault of young women seriously.

that's really cool of her, and smart to boot. but after rereading my post several times, the only conclusion i came to was that you misquoted and commented on the mosh pit pic. because i can't make out the link between my post and yours.

My point, in relation to the mosh pit thing, was that if it is such an issue, simply tell the more aggressive moshers to do their shit in the back so that disabled people, smaller individuals, and others, can enjoy the show from the front. I mean, if you're moshing, you're really not up front watching the band play.

ok, so it was a misquote, i got ya.

Huh, didn't even notice it. I also said that Bikini Kill was a "bank," which would just be silly.

Tumblr users drive an artist to attempting suicide and mock her for it

But it's okay because she drew a fat fictional character as skinny two years ago

Do you have a link?

Yeah, I call bullshit on that. Links or gtfo.

No need to be so ridiculously defensive. It's not like this is the first time Tumblr users have driven someone to suicide in the name of social justice.

But since you asked:

Here's the artist's Tumblr blog in question, and the post where they talk about their suicide attempt and their subsequent hospital visit.

Here's their "receipt blog", and a list of the supposedly terrible things they've done that make harassing them okay.




Image links of people who apparently feel no remorse for this.



Apparently Zamii's suicide attempt "most likely" has nothing to do with the constant daily harassment she receives on her Tumblr, as well as on her DeviantART account, linked here:

Along with the picture that got people raging in the first place.

That enough links?

EDIT: Sorry about the aggressive tone. I didn't mean to come off like that. I was just... angry about seeing this.

Tumblr is a shithole. Hell 4chan is better than tumblr, imo.

The claim sounded so much like a strawman that an asshole would make to discredit SJ discussions that I had that sort of attitude. Sorry.

Not saying you're an asshole, just. You know what I mean.

There's nothing wrong with skepticism, but you might want to be polite about it.

I already apologized for my own aggressive tone (edited the post for it). No need to start anything.

But yeah, this whole thing is pissing me off and that's kind of bleeding into other things.

One more link - her video, after going through many reblogs, including quite a few people who pretty much went "lol she faked it". Disgusting excuses for humanity.

I'll give you credit, this is the first time in a while I've really gotten pissed off in this thread.

Seriously, anyone who thinks bullying someone for minor shit like that deserves to be punched in the face.

It's bad, but I don't think Tumblr ever egged someone on a shooting spree.

Did that actually happen?  I thought it turned out to be a hoax.
