This is a huge part of it for a lot of younger folks in the modern day, as well, and there's been an influx of video essays and articles on the matter that I think anyone who sees this post should look into, at least surface-level if not digging deeper into it.

these things do exist - they require resources and a sense of efficacy and possibility that a lot of people lack, especially if they're already prone to marginalization or feel marginal.
Then how do they make a babby?
This is generally the consensus in polcon but every time this is discussed more people get banned by MSOArchie700 wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2024 4:46 amI really think that message is lost when the word has been claimed by a group of people that blames all their loneliness on women and uses it as an excuse to hate them.dendydoom wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2024 6:26 pm loneliness is a real issue especially male loneliness and while there are plenty of valid criticisms and discussions to be had here, to turn the needle the other way and posit that being cruel and intolerant toward someone's suffering and experiences is fine on the basis of fighting some invisible caricature of the evil 4chan shitposter does not resolve anything, ostracizes and harms real people in our community and makes me very sad.
Especially so when it's filtered to "autist" here, and "autist" is already controversial in itself and made more so by linking that word to it.

just because some portion of people in a space you don't like claims or identifies itself with a label doesn't give you an out on painting everyone in the space or with those descriptive characteristics with the label as a pejorative.The Wrench wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2024 3:51 pmThis is generally the consensus in polcon but every time this is discussed more people get banned by MSOArchie700 wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2024 4:46 amI really think that message is lost when the word has been claimed by a group of people that blames all their loneliness on women and uses it as an excuse to hate them.

I just don't get the angle of a term which is itself a shortening used by a semi-organised in-group in the first place that for a decade now has been overwhelmingly used by and for people and communities with a certain attitude being forcibly applied back to everyone who could ever, theoretically, be described by it just so that members of the original in-group can retroactively complain that the very specific complaints directed at a very specific group of people and communities who overwhelmingly refer to themselves by this non-generic term are actually applying to all of these people in the broader "could theoretically be included by the non-shortened term that is almost never used" umbrella too.

There is a lot of very bizarre nonsense being talked on this forum. I shall now remain silent and logoff until my points are vindicated.

Just came here to say: screech, retards. Screech and writhe like the worms you are. Your pathetic little cries will keep echoing around for a while before quietting down. There is one great outcome from this: I rised up the blood pressure of some of you shitheads and lowered your lifespan. I'm honestly tempted to do this more often just to see you screech and writhe more, but that wouldn't be cool of me. So come on haters, show me some more of your high blood pressure please.

Except the word was very rarely use to describe single, lonely people in the first place. You call them single, lonely people, not something so clunky as "involuntary celibate".Higgin wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2024 8:33 pmjust because some portion of people in a space you don't like claims or identifies itself with a label doesn't give you an out on painting everyone in the space or with those descriptive characteristics with the label as a pejorative.The Wrench wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2024 3:51 pmThis is generally the consensus in polcon but every time this is discussed more people get banned by MSOArchie700 wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2024 4:46 amI really think that message is lost when the word has been claimed by a group of people that blames all their loneliness on women and uses it as an excuse to hate them.

it doesn't minimize or invalidate the harm and rightful offense people have taken from misogynists running in involuntary celibate and men's rights spaces, or misogynists identifying as involuntary celibates or MRAs, to say that they're misogynists who are also shitting up those spaces for decent people.
they're not structurally connected, as in there is no big tent org coordinating them all in the same directions and dispositions, so you can differentiate and be more sensitive to the decent folks (+more easily condemn the shitheads and change the content of the group identity "involuntary celibate") by calling a misogynist a misogynist here
edit: to put this to another example, maybe a bit more vivid, you don't have to nor should you call or talk about black people you don't like or who have wronged you as [insert your choice of epithet here] - especially not if you're not involved in a black identity where part of your use of the term is a positive reclamation of it with fellow group members. the intent matters.
That sounds about rightNot-Dorsidarf wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2024 9:38 pm This logic supposes that one should not in fact call fascists nazis, because not all fascists are nazis even if some are nazis, and actually nazi is a shortening for national socialist, and many socialists believe in nationhood but its unfair to tag them with association with this group that claimed the label for themself.

I call fascists fascists and Nazis Nazis because the content of those categories is much more unequivocally the sort I have moral disagreements with.edit: oh wait since you're already indulging in ridiculous hyperbole by saying calling people autists is the same as the n-word already let me join in - This logic supposes that one should not in fact call fascists nazis, because not all fascists are nazis even if some are nazis, and actually nazi is a shortening for national socialist, and many socialists believe in nationhood but its unfair to tag them with association with this group that claimed the label for themself.

do you typically use your right to lay them down? that'd be my guess - requires less dexterity to hold them at least, or leaves your right hand free for drinking/eating if you're comfortable enoughTimberpoes wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2024 4:27 pm Fun thought experiment - think of random stuff you do with your non-dominant hand.
We play a lot of card games at work, and my friends pointed a very perculiar quirk I have. Despite being steadfastly right-hand dominant, I shuffle, deal and hold cards left-handed. I don't even know where I picked up this specific opposite-handedness just for playing cards.

there's a button by the side of every post which notifies moderators about it, which you can use on posts that you think break forum rules and which is usually somewhat more effective than being snarky in an unrelated thread and because it's not publicy visible it also makes you look less stupid when the expected moderator action is in fact takenImitates-The-Lizards wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 10:39 am So I guess we're just letting anyone post in the appeal whenever they want to now, huh?
