Reading ‘her’ other tweets, I’m suspecting this one is something of a troll. ‘She’ definitely plays up to the incel view.

(She also makes out that bald men are unattractive. I personally know a few ladies who disagree, heh heh.)

If that Symbolic Asterisk thing is your attempt to appear literate and sophisticated, it is not working.

Actually, that asterisk is part of the movie’s official title. That being said, from what I heard it’s actually one of the better recent MCU films (alongside F4), even most of the common haters agree it’s a step in the right direction again.

Tbf, our planet’s big enough for now. A better question is why would any intelligent god create a planet with over 70% water on the surface if it’s meant to be dominated by a land-dwelling species?

I guess you’ll have to condemn the rightards’ Paedo-in-Chief Don Old Fart or you’re normalising & lauding sexual deviation, John C. Wrong

What is more, why should heroes be perfect monoliths of pure almighty goodness? Just because someone is not a flying brick, does not mean they cannot be a hero. Hel, John Wick is pretty much a hero and yet, he ends up in a pretty sorry state. As for his goodness, he was a mafia enforcer, so quite compromised, there.

And let’s not forget that the MCU itself started with a haughty self-professed-narcissist playboy arms trader without any life skills, with the entire support cast basically being his carers trying to clean up his messes, who had enabled his company’s illegal dealings by neglecting his duty of oversight, all the while struggling with the emotional baggage of his strained relationship with his strict and oft-absent father who never got to express his love for his son, left forever unresolved his parents’ sudden death… Or are they really so stupid to think that Tony Stark was not an emotionally conflicted and morally compromised antihero working in large part on due to snark cutting both ways, but an ideal hero - even before of the start of his character development in the cave incident?

Now I haven’t seen the movie and know nothing about the source material, so I’ll apologize in advance to the fans if I’m mischaracterizing it here.

Underdog movies are a thing. Granted that they’re usually aimed at children, but more adult versions do exist.

Morally gray, semi-competent (or very competent but still in a bit over their heads) hero or wannabe hero teams aren’t that uncommon in various media, including superhero comics. Though in Hollywood movies it tends to be done as comedies, and in other media it’s sometimes grimdark.

People with troubled pasts which they can’t easily escape or get over being driven to better the world (even if they’re not necessarily in the best mindset to do so) are very common - that’s basically Batman’s origin story, for crying out loud.

None of these concepts are remotely new. It might or might not be some unusual mix of these concepts (again, can’t personally judge) for a big-budget film, but it’s just one movie, and that doesn’t mean much by itself. But it feels like ageism to use it as a cudgel against younger people just because you think one film which you decided was aimed entirely at that age category is “over-politicized” when you’re probably just reading waaay too much into it.

Pffft. If all men were to disappear tomorrow, then there’s no way that I’m giving up BDSM, and I suspect the majority of the women involved in it wouldn’t either. There will be ones who are too straight to do it with anyone other than men… but even for some people, so long as you leave actual sex out of it they’d be mostly okay with doing it with anyone they trust regardless of whether that person is a gender they’re attracted to. And a lot of the women in the BDSM community are bi or lesbian anyway.

No pornography? You mean no *more* misogynistic pornography catering almost entirely to men, but even then you’d get a small minority of women hoarding them before they get lost or destroyed, because seeing other women being degraded for men’s use is a fetish. If you think that women don’t make porn for women or that it doesn’t have some degree of popularity, I have some news for you. Couldn’t say if it’d become more common, though.

Might not be any more strip clubs, but I suspect that there would be “nude dancing” nightclubs where the patrons strip off before hitting the dance floor. At least until women stopped slut-shaming each other for casual nudity.

For most of the rest of it, it’s basically a rehash of a 1970s line of feminist thought that without men, women would just “naturally” fall into some sort of hyper-empathetic anarcho-communist paradise. Which, aside from being delusional, says more about the ideals of the people who come up with these ideas than anything about women in general.

————

The one thing I’d give them is that, assuming that all-female future generations exist, misogyny would eventually go away, as it would become a meaningless concept… but not nearly as quickly as one would like, and it might even take current (or at least older) generations dying off for it to go away entirely. Internalized misogyny doesn’t easily go away and being in an environment free of men isn’t a cure-all, and those who treat other women like shit just for being women aren’t going to change their mindsets and habits easily just because it doesn’t make even a twisted sort of sense anymore. And it wouldn’t have a direct effect on most other forms of bigotry.

Step 1: Draw a pentagram.
Step 2: Put the candles down.
Step 3: Put the shark plushie in the middle.
Step 4: recite “Ovarit was a group of whiny losers” 5 times in a row.
Step 5: You will see a demon that represents what gender you want to be. Say “Yassss” to it, as that is the only word it knows.
Step 6: You become a god!
If you get even one thing wrong, you get sent to PITTgatory, where the TERFs sings “It’s ME” by the backstreet boys in a crappy southern drawl.

No dominance/submission structures

You wish. Economic inequality is part and parcel of scarcity-based economies. They necessarily imply dominance/submission structures.

No BDSM or sexual power play

As long as it is safe, sane and between consenting adults, why does that bother OP, beyond her personal taste?

No property ownership

Yeah, right, like women do not like owning stuff.

Armond White #crackpot

It clearly indicates that this movie is for Zoomers who were never taught about art, literature, philosophy, or cinema.

While I agree that the movie is mediocre, the claim about art, et cetera, is just snobbish. Not every movie has to be a profound reflection on human nature.

The caucus of third-rate superheroes diminishes the concept of heroism just as the terms “inflation,” “take seriously,” “root causes,” “infrastructure,” and “democracy” were robbed of meaning by the last administration

What is the point of politicising this discussion?
What is more, why should heroes be perfect monoliths of pure almighty goodness? Just because someone is not a flying brick, does not mean they cannot be a hero.

And now DC is under martial fucking law. Because of course it is. Soldiers are on every street corner under the direction of the FBI which… shouldn’t be a thing.

Looking at the linked page, there's a list of keywords that includes "Woke", "Wokism", "DEI", "DIE", "D.I.E.", "D.E.I.", "Govt", "Left", "Leftist", "Commie", "Communist", "Rich", and "Elite". Between that and naming the movement "Gamergate 2", thereby invoking one of the most toxic series of events in the internet's history and positioning it as a sequel, it's pretty clear that the

Gamergate 2 is [not] a far-right harassment campaign against women, LGBTQ+, and marginalized groups.

But to normalize, or to laud, or to esteem sexual deviation as proper or proud or brave, or to encourage such sick and sterile practices

…I guess you’ll have to condemn the rightards’ Paedo-in-Chief Don Old Fart or you’re normalising & lauding sexual deviation, John C. Wrong.

That’s what you’re doing every second you’re not, so I’m afraid you don’t have the right to waste time in clutching your pearls over such a petty concept as pronouns.

Ben Garrison #wingnut

That the best you can do, Ben Garriscum? I can do better with just words:

Freddie Mercury didn’t die, he simply became too Fabulous for this realm of existence.

David Bowie didn’t die, he just became too credible for mere mortal eyes & ears to perceive.

Lemmy didn’t die, he just left in his Silver Machine.

…oh, and Lemmy has been immortalised in two games by id Software: as King Novik of the Night Sentinels in “DOOM Eternal” and “DOOM: The Dark Ages”. A wrestler? I say cast Stone Cold Steve Austin as the Doom Slayer in a film adaptation of “Eternal”: especially the 2nd DLC.

God dies at the end.

@Conscience

Don’t you worry: since those riots last year - and not long after Labour won the election - there’s a simple message to white rightards: GCHQ is watching you.

Since then, Labour have gained two more MPs and (Un)Reform(ed) have lost one. So these… things won’t have much to ‘infiltrate’.

But in both of the above instances, now it’s all come out from that linked article, the fact they’ll be watched by the security services will be the least of their problems. There’s the little matter of the third instance that will make them strike out: or Soviet Britain will strike against them:

a desire to build self-sustaining communities made up exclusively of white families, citing inspiration from places like Orania in South Africa and white separatist settlements in the Ozarks

HM Constabulary will still have the power to enter their ‘separatist’ settlements.

And unlike Waco, it’s going to be rather one sided. Certainly after Dunblane nearly 30 years ago.

What will you have against police armed with H&K MP5s, MP7s etc, Simon Berk…?!

…oh, and think again when it comes to trying to make a ‘separatist’ settlement, OP. They can utterly destroy your ‘dream’ before it can start, and with just two words:

Planning Permission.

Storyendingnever #crackpot #sexist #transphobia

Most of what you want you just said would still exist, just because men somehow disappear doesn’t mean the world becames a paradise, women can be just as monstrous and cruel, greedy and short-sighted, violent and brutal, and whathaveyou as the men, frankly I think its’ more sexist to think that women can not be as horrible as the men just because they happen to be women. But lets go point by point shall we?

Start with Sexual Safety

“No rape”

So you think women can’t rape? they very much can, just the method is going to be different

“No fear at night”

That won’t go away just because men are gone, it just means the reason to fear at night is different and this time you have to worry about women doing something to you

“No sexual harassment or intimidation”

Again, you don’t think women can’t do either of these?

“No sexual assault”

Again, as mentioned with the rape part, women can do this

“Little to no violent crime
No gangs
No dominance/submission structures
No BDSM or sexual power play
No prostitution
No stripping/pole dancing/demeaning ‘sex work’ of any kind
No sex/human trafficking
No missing girls or women
No slavery
No pornography
No surveillance
No need for a police force (mediators, perhaps)”

All of this is just what you THINK will happen, not that it will happen, women can commit violent crime, women can be apart of gangs, women can dominate other women and in turn other women can be submissive to dominant women, BDSM, Prostitution, Sex Work in general and Sex/human trafficking would still happen (the latter of which you should know can happen given Maxwell being such a notable example of a woman being the boss of a human/sex trafficking ring), which leads to their still being missing girls or women, slavery would still exist, porn would still exist because women can be just as horny as their male counterparts, again, just because men are gone doesn’t mean that goes away to, why the hell would surveillance go away when men go away and if all the above haven’t already hinted at, why would the need for police go away with the disappearance of men?

“No misogyny”

That is something that would happen… but even then it would be highly questionable since there are female misogynists out there.

And that’s just with the sexual safety part, just looking through the rest I know that everything else just flatout isn’t going to happen just because men aren’t around anymore.

You’re remind me alot of the fuckin’ Nazis in how delusional you are in your hatred and desire to blame a particular group for all the problems in the world no matter how little sense it makes or if it even would happen like you think it will.

‘Parasites’, eh? Well you came from one, OP.

So what does that make you? Others will know what to make of you, though: and you’re less human than Xenomorphs.

That based on the concept of ‘Fear of Male Pregnancy’. From that first groundbreaking film in 1979 to what premieres via streaming today: “Alien: Earth”. In buying 20th Century Fox, Disney have chosen… wisely.

In terms of mindsets though, you chose… poorly.

I mentioned somewhere before that they're pretty big on parthenogenesis as the wondrous alternative to male-female breeding.
Except, for a huge variety of reasons, it looks like it might be impossible to do reliably with human embryos. Even the most successful efforts result in some mild Akira/Cronenberg complications that make cloning a far more viable alternative.

Even the famous example they use of a Japanese mouse that was born from artificial parthenogenesis was one of thousands upon thousands of attempts that ended in unviable embryos.

David Nikao #fundie #crackpot #pratt #conspiracy

I mean, so much is open to interpretation. But playing Devil's Advocate, the Bible doesn't specifically state the planet is immobile. Just that the earth is affixed so it won't fly into the void. The sun completing it's circuit? Large enough timescales, that will happen as the sun does technically circle the Earth as our entire solar system orbits the galactic center.
I know the Bible supports the idea of a round earth and space with mentions of circular horizons and the world 'hanging upon nothing"

Or, y'know, the book that was written by men, translated a dozen times in a dozen time periods by men, and interpreted by men isn't actually infallible. Who woulda thunk.

David Nikao #fundie #crackpot #pratt #conspiracy

Heliocentrism replaced geocentrism because it better fit observed reality. Newtonian Dynamics explained how heliocentrism works while offering the possibility that the sun might not actually be the center of the universe. Late 19th century astronomy strongly suggested it wasn’t. Relativity fixed most of the flaws with Newtonian Dynamics while showing that there is probably no meaningful “center of the universe”. 20th Century astronomy threw out any chance that heliocentrism or geocentrism could possibly be correct.

But more to the point, if even geocentrism was real, that doesn’t make relativity wrong. They’re entirely compatible, with the possible exception of there being a “privileged frame of reference” after all, though the math would still work just fine (there’d be places where you could simplify things a bit, but it would still work without simplification). Geocentrism being true would simply make the observed state of the universe incorrect somehow. I don’t think you actually know what “relativity” means and you’re just lumping all of astronomy, cosmology, and physics (or at least the parts you don’t like) under that label.

To be honest it’s a bit odd to me, unless it’s a name like Ashley or Narinder.

Spasm of disgust stronger than hatred though? How does that manifest itself? Do you, as @KeithInc suggested, puke all over your trews? Do you fall to your knees and throw your head back, eyes screwed up in mental torment? Do you throw yourself on the ground and batter it with your fists while chewing the carpet, like Napoleon?

I’d give it a go as well. “This is my friend Keithette and I’m Justine. Don’t mind the beard and the shaved head, I keep those because they’re a part of my identity. Oh, why are you rolling on the floor kicking your legs in the air? And in your big overcoat and your fedora too?”
