deserved. they tried playing the intellectual and lost.

I like this part:

I hope that I am not labeled as “defending pedophilia” because I am not

What is the purpose of the discussion then?

I mean I get certain arguments like the child involved is on the verge of being legally able to consent. That would be 15 in the UK. Not that I condone a relationship like that, just that I do not equate it to abuse of an 8 year old child. It's not the same thing. It is mearly an argument for proportionality. Depending on the circumstances the adult may not necessarily be a threat in the same way someone who abuses an 8 year old child is a threat. I can understand at least an argument for that reflecting how the authorities deal with it.

He is not talking about grey areas like that though. So...

Why is being in shape and the realization that everyone is a little shallow blowing RE's mind?

As someone whose been both fat and in shape, that shit is just common sense.

Some seem to be just terrified to say anything generalising about women because agency is important and stuff.

It's interesting you mention that. It reminds me of the reason for why I was banned from GAF. This was one of my first posts on here.

The reason given officially for my ban was apparently calling Carrie Fisher 'ugly' (before she died). I didn't actually call her ugly, I wrote that she looked like shit before she lost some weight. The context was Carrie Fisher bemoaning Hollywood beauty standards for feeling that she needed to lose weight. She was unhealthily obese for goodness sake, it really seemed inappropriate to be blaming Hollywood for it. That's not to say there isn't merit in criticising Hollywood, it's just that she was in no position to. Anyway that was what got me a permanent ban.

The thing was though, that wasn't all that was written as a reason for my ban. The admin then went on to accuse me of being a secret MRA. While acknowledging that I don't actually identify as a MRA, the admin went on to accuse me of being one covertly and apparently it was really transparent. I think a good translation for people who are sane would be: I am someone who always weighed in on controversial subjects with opinions that were contrary to the post-modern social justice worldview that GAF wanted to promote and propagate. You couldn't possibly hold such opinions -- in the minds of the admins on GAF -- without being an MRA. It's that same paranoid conspiratorial thinking you got from a lot of the members on GAF that used to drive me crazy (lol).

Interestingly, my ban occured before 'alt-right' really came into common vernacular. If it happened today I probably would have been accused of being a secret 'alt-right' agent, trying to infiltrate and subvert GAF.

So, yeah, an interesting turn of events...

I said Carrie Fisher looked like shit before she lost weight. Not that I go around abusing fat people or something(lol) it was purely in the context of her bemoaning Hollywood beauty standards as the reason for her feeliing she needed to lose weight. Also, as I mentioned though, it seemed like an excuse to permanently ban me.

The reason I bring it up is because guess who lost their shit when I said it in that thread? Excelsiorlef. I have a feeling she was the one who reported me to the mods.

[clothedmacuser]

She literally admitted to being a gimmick poster, which is amazing because for 4 years she was complaining about "gimmick posters" ruining her dang wrasslin threads on both GAF and RE. Including posters that were some how ruining the thread despite being banned. (like me, but not just me).

https://www.resetera.com/threads/wp-women-rate-strongest-men-most-attractive-linear-relationship-strength-attractiveness.11343/page-3#post-2172360

Overtly verbose academic seriousness, which may or may not be entirely performative and in itself in jest, in response to the written expression of another individual's statement of humorous intent.... is sort of my thing.

Now if your academically styled analysis of said person's intended to be humours statement was absolutely made in earnest then I guess you may proceed... but I'd note I find your findings and arguments to be lacking.

Talk about a deluded self image.  Academic and verbose is not how to describe excel. More like 4 year old playing with a shiny bauble.

I'm not sure the relevance of my quote and your post, but ok.

I'm not sure the relevance of my quote and your post, but ok.

No relevance. Could have quite easily quoted the person you responded to. It is just that Excelsiorlef has come up a lot lately and the talk about losing weight and being in shape reminded me that it was Excelsiorlef who freaked out in that thread to my comment on Carrie. That's all.

He got banned for defending pedophilia, but all the comments after him are variants of "I agree with you, but.... (Virtue signalling about drag queens etc)"

Everyone in this thread. Try checking out your comment history on your YouTube accounts. I came upon mine a couple of weeks ago and was shocked at some of the things that my 8 year former me wrote.

It completely shook me, that I had written that.

No worries. Lion Pride's post is so cryptic I made no sense of it. It was only when I scrolled down a bit to some intelligible posts that I realized what I was reading.

[Assimilate]

Resseteras obsession with shitting on the U.S (the country most of them live in and have the liberty to say such things) is astonishing. I'm in a latin american country at the moment and holy fuck talk about misogyny, corruption, racism, classism.. list goes on.

It's nuts. Not to mention bloated government bureaucracy that lets the filth of the country mobilize and take over swaths of prime real estate and shit all over it because it keeps them in power.  Seriously, it's like man i'm not anything against the 'poor' but goddamn it if your culture of poor is to shit all over your residency go fuck yourself. There's many cultures out there with very poor people that take care of the land around them. It's a cultural thing, not a financial one.

These ideological idiots have no idea of the real world outside their computer screen.

Trump is a buffoon but he is hardly the catalyst for being another "Latin American" country. It's the people that are voting for him and those pieces were set in motion far before he announced he was running.

To Trump's credit he saw the dumbing down of American politics way before most of us did.  He waited for the most opportune time to jump in, and it was going to be on either side. Republican or Democrat.

Not to get overtly political, but while there's a lot of chicken or egg going on... It would seem Trump, hum, "character peculiarities" do provide an argument he is fairly unique in how nakedly he's breaking expected norms and forms of conduct every day. A lot of unbecoming, possibly similar, stuff happened under W. Bush (horrible SC picks, weaseling torture in as a practice, enacting mass spying including through pressure on Cabinet members, belligerent to the intelligence up to extreme tragedy...) but it was a tenth of the media circus you currently have, a circus which in itself is not consequence free. None of it is perhaps the root cause but it's still consequential.
