This whole Marvel Cinematic Universe is getting so complicated.
http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/31/coming-2016-all-out-war-on-so-called-social-justice/
In 2016, battle lines will be drawn. On one side, people of all colours, genders and orientations are rallying around the flag of freedom of speech. On the other, a nasty set of authoritarians are rallying around a flag that identifies as a flag only on Mondays, uses they/them pronouns and will try to get you fired or expelled from school if you forget it.
It’s now clear that progressives, lecturing the rest of us on how we ought to live from their bully pulpits in the media, academia and the entertainment industry, are terrified of the internet and don’t want to know what we have to say. Well, tough. In 2016, it’s time for the counterculture to go to war. Over the past year, I’ve seen people from all over the world stand up and fight back against the authoritarian, censorious world being built around us.
From video games to reddit to college campuses, we’re beginning to realise that there are more of us than there are of them. Our YouTube videos get more views, our fundraisers smash their targets, our numbers on social media eclipse theirs. And by the way: we see your hypocrisy. Social justice is always a cover for something, as the endless queue of progressives who get busted for being sex pests or worse continues to grow.
The public is getting sick of nasty, spiteful rants from people who pretend that their objectives are nice-sounding things like “diversity” and “equality” but who are really just bullies. “Why does no one like me?” cries the SJW. Maybe because without regard to your race, creed, colour, gender, sexual orientation, et. al., the content of your character just sucks. Here’s a tip for social justice goons: sometimes when you think the rest of the world is mad and evil… it’s not them, it’s you.

When we fight, we win, because social justice warriors refuse to defend their loopy and idiotic pronouncements and because we don’t mind questioning authority and re-examining received wisdom. Crazy feminists are being exposed as horribly out of touch with ordinary people; race-baiters are being exposed as frauds and wackos. We are trampling all over the nannying speech codes of political correctness. So it’s time to fight properly.

You have a powerful ally in the fight, of course: me. My New Year’s resolution is to fuck shit up. Yiannopoulism (I’ll come up with a better name soon, I promise, but in the meantime this will trigger any SJW whose primary disability is hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia) is becoming a runaway internet phenomenon that shows no sign of slowing down any time soon. Every day, people are getting braver about making unconventional choices and learning to embrace fun and common sense again.
So come with me, over the next year. Let’s rustle jimmies and tweak noses. Let’s un-coddle the coddled American mind. Let’s respond to outrage culture with unapologetic, unrestrained, uncontrollable mischief. Who’s with me? Because here’s the dirty secret about social justice warriors: nothing bad happens when you tell them to go fuck themselves.
If you take their crybully pronouncements at face value, social justice warriors believe, with all the fervor of a paranoiac, that they are helpless, fragile things, buffeted by sinister structural forces they are powerless to resist. They believe that their opponents possess power that, if used ruthlessly enough, could eradicate them. What do you say we prove them right?
Milo Yiannopoulos ✔ @Nero
If you strike me down, I will become more fabulous than you can ever imagine.
You will be made to care.

And yet the latest movie to get 1 billion dollars stars a black man and white woman as the two main characters with a latino on the side.
:umad
Minority gang winning. Go listen to grunge music or country or whatever music you listen to and reflect on your mistakes Breitbart. :rejoice

It's 2016, Yiannopoulos is still Yiannopoulos.

Fun thing to do when reading this scree is to see how many Boreans use the same words and / or phrases to kvetch about the same things. :snob

Rather than be passive aggressive say who you mean. :P

Did he just announce that he's a willing martyr for the cause? I wonder how much of this is building his pundit brand.

No backsies though. :ufup

Star wars had minority characters guys. Racism and sexism is over.
Personally, I can't wait to live in a world where Chris Hemsworth can be a sexy native american without having a bit of outrage about it. :doge

this elicited a few chuckles from me but it sunk back into the usual tropes fairly quickly.

Yeah we sure don't need feminism, it's not like women had more reproductive freedom over 40 years ago.
Lemme say that again, over 40 years ago.

I think my favorite part is that it has like six arguably ideal ending "call to power" paragraphs and then he rambles off onto something else to come back to it. And sticks a twitter post inbetween every single one.
Regarding dropping out of university [after studying English literature for three years], in 2012 he told Forbes, "I try to tell myself I'm in good company, but ultimately it doesn't say great things about you unless you go on to terrific success in your own right."
In 2015, in an article titled "I dropped out of Manchester and Cambridge but it’s honestly fine", he wrote that he didn't believe a college degree was necessary for success, and that he believed he had achieved success without one.

Well yeah it's quite easy when you already run in circles rife with cronyism and nepotism :yeshrug

Twitter is where he strives. No need to even exaggerate anyone's positions, when he can just cherrypick ambassadors from the world's comments section. People hand deliver suitable targets to him or his claqeurs.

Will they be calling themselves The Social Injustice Warriors, or The Legion of Social DOOM? At any rate I won't take them seriously until they recruit an evil sentient gorilla.
-
I used to think I just didn't like white men in porn. But now I'm starting to think I don't like white men in anything, outside of The Bore of course.

Are the LAPD So-Cal justice warriors?

I'm pretty sure douchebag still applies.
