i wonder if excelsioref's consistent subtle altering of their avatar is what they consider enough to claim trans status

oh, she says she's post-op, thanks for turning my joke about an avatar into a douchey comment (ed note: how is this different than normal?)

A) Please don't use trangenderism... it's laregly a term used by the right wing to shit on trans people....

This is funny because if you actually had any experience with the lets say, less tactful, parts of the right-wing media/bloggers and how they talk about transgender people (hell, gays!), them even allowing the term transgender as holding any kind of validity is meeting trans people 75% of the way.

boy they should see what people actually post on ratemyprofessor and similar sites   (edit: actually, i think there already is a conservative themed one of these or there used to be)

the only conservative professor (outside of abortion/gays) in my at the time department once had a lengthy diatribe posted about how he was pushing Marxism and Democratic Party talking points among other things (from my experience dude wouldn't know the first thing about Marxism outside of the famous lines from the Communist Manifesto) and he was depressed about this for months

i think i eventually decoded it for him, see, this was in early 2010 or so?...and his courses are exclusively focused on the American political process, how legislation gets made, executive branch powers, etc. so he was talking a lot about what the new Obama Administration and Democratic Supermajority was doing like the stimulus, health care, etc. even if as just examples or newspaper type summaries...it is true that his other focus is elections, which i suppose could have seemed Democratic tilted because of the way he lets students drive topics, but he does those in the fall semester so they line up with the actual elections and the "review" listed one of his spring courses and this is way more information than you might want but you're getting it FREE OF CHARGE*

The letter to administrators notes faculty first learned of Peterson’s plans through “publicly available online videos”:

“These videos describe the website as asking people to upload course descriptions, along with professor names, and then using AI software (called a “postmodern lexicon detector”) to rank them for “postmodern neo-Marxian” content, which he describes as a corruption that needs to removed from the university.”

The letter also notes concern with Peterson’s “violence-tinged language”:

“It is particularly concerning that Peterson uses violence-tinged language to describe the courses he hopes to prevent people from taking, describing them as corrupt, reprehensible, malevolent, a plague, and even ‘bordering on murderous’, and describing his overall project as part of a war.”

doh! alt-right FOILED AGAIN with their “publicly available online videos”

The letter also calls attention to Peterson’s at times violent tone, quoting one video where Peterson suggests anyone who speaks like a “postmodern neo-Marxist” should be “punched in the nose hard enough to knock you out.”

Concerned faculty say the violent rhetoric is especially disturbing in light of Peterson’s fixation on women and racialized groups:

“In public online remarks more broadly, Prof. Peterson regularly describes women and gender studies and what he refers to as ‘racial and ethnic group studies’ as pathological, a cancer, and in other strongly denigrating terms. The launch of this website must be put in this context in order to fully understand it as a platform that will generate harassment.”

The letter concludes:

“We strongly request that action is taken by university leadership to proactively prevent this harassment before it begins.”

What's wrong with transgenderism exactly? What else could it be called? It's like being mad people use autism. The conservatives who use it do so often out of good intentions. They have no other manner of defining or categorizing the condition that causes being trans. Like, I can understand not liking it, but to the point where it's considered offensive makes no sense as it's the basic, natural conclusion that comes from the English language and far, far better than other descriptors of the phenomenon such as transgendered.

TLDR: most trans people offended by transgenderism/transsexuality or whatever tend to be, and this is mostly a blanket assumption, new to the community and are playing Word Police by making assumptions as to where these words came from. Unfortunately many of them are way too opinionated despite being a baby trans or at best a 2nd grade trans, and should shut the fuck and read actual literature and not just dumbass tumblrs.

Right, seriously, I thought many of them accepting "cheeseburger" was a positive step. Then I learned on NeoGAF.com that was the most vile thing you could say.

This was a few years after all the TrannySurprise tab jokes of course.

Really, TrannySurprise is a pretty progressive website. From what I've seen of it, the men upon being "surprised" don't react by violently beating them to death or even running away, instead they often stick that dick right in their mouth, and sometimes even their butt. Very empowering!

The discussion about redefining terms in the comments of that post are interesting, two years hence, as I clicked onto her main page to see the newest content which included Marcuse Revisited: https://medium.com/@juliaserano/refusing-to-tolerate-intolerance-f24c1bff513f

Throughout the piece and the connecting ones she uses the term "free speech absolutist" as a negative, and joins much of the last days of NeoGAF.com in the opinion that such positions "cannot be taken seriously." All while conflating those who confuse "free speech" for "speaking without any reputation or social consequences to ones self" and those who consider "free speech" as "lack of state/legal suppression" in a way that often leaves her walking past criticizing the impossible former, for advocating against the latter and in favor of state suppression of speech/press/assembly/etc.

For example, the middle piece in the series which actually seems more in line with Marcuse's assertion that ideas themselves are forms of violence and should be suppressed by the state like any violence while quoting from a recently "discovered" newly popular segment of Popper's Open Society let alone merely criticizing "speaking without any self consequences":

The second camp includes those of us who have witnessed the unrelenting rise of white nationalism (or the “alt-right,” as it is sometimes euphemistically called) online over the last several years — their recruitment of hordes of young white men, their campaigns of hate speech and harassment (e.g., Gamergate, attacks on Leslie Jones, and others) designed to intimidate and silence women and minorities. Now, we are watching the architects of that movement being treated as celebrities and playing lead roles in the Trump administration, and we cannot help but feel that there is something far more substantial and grave going on here.

...

more severe suppression may ultimately be necessary to stop it.

If you've entered the realm of ideas being literal acts of violence and as such needing to be suppressed by the Trump Administration then you aren't taking a stand against "free speech absolutists" you're taking a stand against concepts of liberty and democracy that predate the text of the First Amendment by hundreds of years.

It's not a slippery slope argument (which she complains about) to point out your entire argument is based on the premise that ideas should be illegal. You're ruling out not "absolutism" but the very possibility of the free exchange of ideas.

Another thing we can thank Jack Kirby for. The New Gods are living ideas who create weapons out of the power of ideas. Warner Bros and DC have been planning all this for years to setup Snyder's glorious Darkseid debut. Bless up.

Excellent.

This is a GLORIOUS day

Amazing!

This is all very exciting!

I mean it was always obvious this was gambling to anyone with half a brain to begin with, just because the law hadn’t been updated since well before digital commodities existed made no difference to that, so this was inevitably coming eventually, but gods damn is it satisfying to seee EA being the ones that took it too far and made regulators wake up to what the game industry was doing to the young and vulnerable!

Who knows, maybe now instead of just shoving exploitative skinner boxes designed to get as much money as possible out of addicts into their bloated, overly focus tested bore fests, AAA games could perhaps instead just make more diverse, well crafted games on a properly managed budget that justify a slightly higher price tag?

There will be 0 issue with government regulating games as long as it is strictly to do with gambling/loot boxes. Just need to make sure there is no open ended language in the legislation that could lead to censorship of content, just purely be about the gambling aspect.

Well clearly the ESRB and the industry itself aren't going to do anything about. This is what government is suppose to do, so I don't see how it's a bad thing.

Kind of shocked at how many people in this thread don't think gambling should be regulated.

Students of history will remember that the last turn of a century self-proclaimed Progressive movement in the United States also wanted to stamp out gambling as one of the many vices holding back the achievement of a modern society along with alcohol, blacks and the poor having too many children.

The mere conceptn of words as violence, that ISN'T ACTUAL HATE SPEECH (i.e. "I'll fucking kill you cheeseburger" "cheeseburgers meet my gun please" is laughable.

Words are not actual violence. Words can be used during violence, or precede violence. But literal violence?

And yeah, the free speech shit is always cute when it comes to the left. And it's always said by minorities who would (by the state) be the first ones to lose their rights, if it came to that. The fact that my generation doesn't find free speech important has made me realize that the majority are absolute fucking morons and we are destined to become the next baby boomers.

You know these Yuropeans and their post-modernism, it's not that they actually eat potatoes it's that they contemplate the idea of a potato and the concept of having potentially eaten it, and receive the necessary nutrients. It's really funny how backwards and ignorant Americans are in comparison, especially in their inability to understand what's best for them and mankind, like not tolerating harmful and corrosive ideas in public discourse or being inclusive of all other cultures.

Especially when there's the leading example of Yurop, which has yet again worked harmoniously to tackle and eliminate any mitigating human issues except for the seemingly never ending scourge of those fucking Roma and their godawful trash culture.

For example, the middle piece in the series which actually seems more in line with Marcuse's assertion that ideas themselves are forms of violence and should be suppressed by the state like any violence while quoting from a recently "discovered" newly popular segment of Popper's Open Society let alone merely criticizing "speaking without any self consequences":

The second camp includes those of us who have witnessed the unrelenting rise of white nationalism (or the “alt-right,” as it is sometimes euphemistically called) online over the last several years — their recruitment of hordes of young white men, their campaigns of hate speech and harassment (e.g., Gamergate, attacks on Leslie Jones, and others) designed to intimidate and silence women and minorities. Now, we are watching the architects of that movement being treated as celebrities and playing lead roles in the Trump administration, and we cannot help but feel that there is something far more substantial and grave going on here.

...

more severe suppression may ultimately be necessary to stop it.

If you've entered the realm of ideas being literal acts of violence and as such needing to be suppressed by the Trump Administration then you aren't taking a stand against "free speech absolutists" you're taking a stand against concepts of liberty and democracy that predate the text of the First Amendment by hundreds of years.

It's not a slippery slope argument (which she complains about) to point out your entire argument is based on the premise that ideas should be illegal. You're ruling out not "absolutism" but the very possibility of the free exchange of ideas.

Another thing we can thank Jack Kirby for. The New Gods are living ideas who create weapons out of the power of ideas. Warner Bros and DC have been planning all this for years to setup Snyder's glorious Darkseid debut. Bless up.

How's that Momo? A better starting point than Novid's pitch?

The mere conceptn of words as violence, that ISN'T ACTUAL HATE SPEECH (i.e. "I'll fucking kill you cheeseburger" "cheeseburgers meet my gun please" is laughable.

Words are not actual violence. Words can be used during violence, or precede violence. But literal violence?

And yeah, the free speech shit is always cute when it comes to the left. And it's always said by minorities who would (by the state) be the first ones to lose their rights, if it came to that. The fact that my generation doesn't find free speech important has made me realize that the majority are absolute fucking morons and we are destined to become the next baby boomers.

Nope we will become worse and ltcorbis and her generation will have every right to eat us alive.

You know these Yuropeans and their post-modernism, it's not that they actually eat potatoes it's that they contemplate the idea of a potato and the concept of having potentially eaten it, and receive the necessary nutrients. It's really funny how backwards and ignorant Americans are in comparison, especially in their inability to understand what's best for them and mankind, like not tolerating harmful and corrosive ideas in public discourse or being inclusive of all other cultures.

Especially when there's the leading example of Yurop, which has yet again worked harmoniously to tackle and eliminate any mitigating human issues except for the seemingly never ending scourge of those fucking Roma and their godawful trash culture.

I'll have you known, sir, we still have plenty of issues with brown, blacks and miscreants.

Americans are fat because of HFC and sugar shit in everything surely, I mean you see other places getting more obese as american staples come to town.

Also "Europe" is the name of one of the victims of serial harasser and rapist Zeus. Given what we know now, maybe we should change the name to something more inclusive and less problematic like "Al-Andalus".

How about Caucasoidia
