On Trigger Warnings, Defensiveness, and Anti-PC Hysteria - Odin - 05-29-2016 Who Are The Real “Victims” Here? On Trigger Warnings, Defensiveness, and Anti-PC Hysteria Quote:Last night I saw Belladonna of Sadness at Northwest Film Forum in Seattle. The movie is a surreal, psychedelic take on the dynamics of heterosexual eroticism set in medieval France, animated in 1970s Japan. I found a lot to recommend it, as a formally striking film that foregrounds a complex female character and its portrayal of witchcraft as a survival-driven rebellion of a patriarchal order, but due to its frank (albeit highly sympathetic) depiction of coercive sex and outright rape, I can definitely see why some other women might choose to skip it. RE: On Trigger Warnings, Defensiveness, and Anti-PC Hysteria - Ragnarök_62 - 01-28-2017 Wow, I found the perfect place to stash my seemingly infinite stash of yes, yes..... Special Snowflake dissing.
Yes, yes I admit it. Special snowflakes trigger rags. Bwahahahahahahahah

"Trigger" is a neologism as such: Urban Dictionary Wrote:A phrase posted at the beginning of various posts, articles, or blogs. Its purpose is to warn weak minded people who are easily offended that they might find what is being posted offensive in some way due to its content, causing them to overreact or otherwise start acting like a dipshit. Popular on reddit SRS or other places that social justice warriors like to hang out. I'm stating I'm triggered by "special snowflakes" as snark aimed at said "special snowflakes". Special snowflakes: This is a meme as follows: know your meme Wrote:About RE: On Trigger Warnings, Defensiveness, and Anti-PC Hysteria - pbrower2a - 01-28-2017 I suspect that snowflake implies someone incapable of taking the heat in a discussion due to the likelihood of being offended. One will melt, so to speak.

My dear tara, it's not sensitivity that's deserving of my snark , derision, lampoonery, dissing, but rather the SJW/special snowflake attempts to shame/dis/lecture me on what I'm supposed to think / feel. The fact is said SJWs/special snowflakes are all about telling others how to think/feel. And... in many cases they love to project a sense of insufferable moral superiority.

Sit idly while it happens? This is how society progresses don't you think? When SJW types see a wrong and want to address it. Tell me what you would do? I believe in fighting injustice because of the fact i am sensitive and want more for people, animals and the planet.(01-28-2017, 02:10 AM)taramarie Wrote: Why is sensitivity viewed as such a bad thing? My, my tara, let me attempt to deprogram you. No, SJW's don't really give a fuck about what you think they do. They aren't called the "regressive left" or "cultural marxists" nothing. In, reality it's all about blame redirection, self pontification, reverse racism, and a return to segregation. Here's a vid to explain it all. IOW, they act just like actual Neo-nazis of a different color/sex or whatever else they have a hangup on.

While stating certain groups are not being heard the idea should not be to perform reverse racism....i mean do these people realize what they are doing and on top of it the backlash it is causing? How ridiculous. This is not equality at all. Very good tara. Yes that is what the SJW/snow flake situation is like here in the US. That is one reason Trump won here. A vote for Trump became a "fuck you" so to speak to said naggy SJW's/special snowflakes. It also explains why a bunch of US Millies about 19 years old start trolling the fuck out of this stuff on social media. Xer's just find them as an object only worthy of snark. |
