Self awareness isn’t a strong suit here, I see. “How dare you? You are unfit to speak?” Don’t get too agitated there your highness, your little plastic crown might fall off and once that kind of glitter gets into your keyboard, it never comes out.

I’m not in the least ashamed: I find you reprehensible, an opinion in which I am confirmed by your apparent belief that likening human beings to real estate over which you have ownership rights but can no longer afford is the same as likening people to fish that you don’t own and must try to attract. That is a…

Your feelings are, in fact, invalid. You haunt these boards to make what are, essentially, incel arguments without the cartoonish misogyny in which incels usually indulge - essentially what Richard Spencer aspired to be for Nazis. But ultimately, you a person who has no problem likening women to property (yeah, I…

I would not praise a person who committed monstrous acts for a cause I believe in, and were I a member of a community that did praise such a person (which significant segments of the incel community do) I would do everything in my power to distance myself from it, and re-examine what errors of judgement me to them in…

“I think that incels who rant online or whine in public are really just choosing the wrong words to express valid opinions.”

So, “Spirit, United, Delta, and Alaska Airlines didn’t immediately respond” somehow goes to “airlines don’t seem to care at all.”

I’m sure she knows that. This particular author has a gift for saying things that are blatantly wrong, ignorant, misinformed or stupid in such a way that they practically beg for a storm of comments to correct them. She has a genuine talent for it.

Rich is usually one of the better writers here, so I am genuinely curious as to what the are meant understand about the nature of this feud from the word “voracious.”

“People have a right to feel it takes them out of it without other people saying it’s racist.”

She wouldn’t have merited a Dirtbag blurb before her marriage. Why would she suddenly become independently interesting now?

Ok

It is a concept that those with privilege in society use to protect their privileges: give the poor the occasional loaf of bread, or a town library, or an overseas vaccination program, point to how you’ve fulfilled your “obligations” to those below you, thus justifying the “noblesse.” It is a power serving and power…

Oh god. Imagine, if you will, that the concept exists outside of whatever high school textbook you first encountered it, and is discussed extensively in political economy, law, philosophy - anywhere, essentially, where power and its justifications are studied. Then look at Google scholar and do a search.

Oh no, a loose analogy in an internet comment wasn’t a perfect match for whatever dictionary you’re using? How will you EVER understand what I’m trying to say?

The “because of the wonderful things they bring” was the relevant clause there. Sorry your attention span ran out.

“It’s not those without degrees paying for this, it’s people WITH degrees. The government makes a significant profit for every dollar that they spend on education.”

No one needs masculinity-specific training or masculinity-specific role models. That’s a con. The idea that being a man has some extra set of requirements or burdens, or that there are particular virtues that are male-coded is the problem.

Honor, courage, emotional balance and reliability are good qualities for a person. Prove me wrong, as the saying goes.

No one needs an instruction manual on masculinity. What Peterson and Tate offer are baroque justifications and self-deluding excuses for the insecure to indulge their worst impulses. They offer power fantasies, in other words, just like Captain America and Batman are power fantasies. They feel good, but they aren’t…

A rehash of someone else’s reporting about a municipal politician, pertaining to an issue with no angle relevant to Jezebel’s putative interest areas, that does not even mention or quote a woman or offer insight or additional reporting.
