Ignored ironies: women, protest and Donald Trump : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 24/1/2017

These are hippies turned conservative protectors of the status quo, doves genetically modified to be hawks in Hillary Clinton's laboratory of politics.

Killarney:

"I'm done with this thread. Nothing more to add"

No need to tell us that. Just leave. We'll be OK without you.

Phanto

If the purpose of abortion is not to kill a human being, what's the point?

Killarney
That's a fail.

You know you cannot defend your bigotted sexist anti-human hypocrisy, because you are wrong and you know it. I repeat my challenge to identify *any* tenet of feminism that is not self-contradictory.

You cannot identify any sexism or bigotry in what I say, when repeatedly asked to specify.

What you're saying is morally vacuous. If a large number of people advocate genocide, rape, or slavery, you have no *moral* problem with that?

A large number is only significant if they have something valid to say. But, apart from supporting sexist female privilege, and spewing racist hatred, what did the women marchers stand for? They are already the most privileged people in the world. What do they want: *more* sexist privileges for women on a double standard?

What was the point of dressing as vaginas? These are the same people who want men banned from displaying representations of vaginas at work as sexist and abusive = more double standards, and sexist hypocrisy.

You think it's okay to stab a child in the head if the mother feels like it, do you? Answer the question. What if the child is partially born?

How about you, phanto?

Notice how the feminist uses the term "sexist" and "bigot" to mean ANYTHING SHE DISAGREES WITH, even if
a) she can't specify any sexism or bigotyy when repeatedly challenged, and
b) EVERYTHING she is defending comprises sexist bigotry, many times over.

I challenge anyone to defend any tenet of feminism, and I undertake to show your sexist self-contradiction in two steps.

Jardine K Jardine,
Don't get wound up over the situation and pop a blood vessel.
Without wanting to offend Killarney, I have to ask do you really think a staunch feminist is going to let you win even if you do make reasonable points?
She's obviously pretty well trained with typical feminist talking points.
If you challenge her and she can't win she'll just flip the script and accuse you of something.

I've personally come to the conclusion that this third wave feminism will burn out soon enough.
Mostly because the womens message and complaints are largely irrational, and most people including more saner women and ex-feminists are starting to realise it and turn away from it.
Progressives no longer have the mandate in the US.
They are laughed at as fools and they still haven't gotten the memo.

I'm not going to get upset or make fun of her like I do to many others mainly because I'm trying not to be so hard on other posters but also because I feel sorry for her and I wish there was a easy way to deprogram her.

Some of the things I saw relating to the womens march footage and on social media.

The left's demands that building walls are wrong and racist, until they create a wall themselves to stop Trump supporters attending the inaugruation; and in which the complicit corporate media then falsely reports it.
Women wearing "pussy hats' screaming "Grab my pussy, Kick your dick"
Woman prancing around nude saying "Hand's off my pussy" and "My Body, My Choice".
Constant talk of white privelidge like a Pastor reminding everyone they are sinners.
The same old garbage about gender pay gap, rape culture and blaming white males for everything while being tolerant of Islamic Culture and Extremism, which is actually far worse than our western countries.
Calls to assassinate Trump on Twitter; followed by #lovetrumpshate

Are you really going to bother?
I say leave Killarney be, hopefully she'll figure it out soon enough, or continue making a fool of herself supporting a stupid and irrational women's movement in the meantime.

Also I don't want to give her a reason for resentment (because I don't think she likes feeling bullied) and for her ideas and beliefs to become entrenched.
She's just a victim of hive minded brainwashing after all.
I try to take note of any actual worthwhile grievances and move on.
Don't see any point in arguing with her for the sake of it.

Not quite done yet ...

'I've personally come to the conclusion that this third wave feminism will burn out soon enough.'

A march of 4 million people? The largest in US history? And another half-million worldwide? Yeah, third-wave feminism is really burning out fast, isn't it?

What time line would you propose for this massive worldwide burnout to occur? Three weeks from Tuesday?

JKJ:

“If the purpose of abortion is not to kill a human being, what's the point?”

You did not answer my question.
I asked - On what principle do you decide what a human being is?

“How about you, phanto?”
How about me what?

Killarney:

So just because there were big numbers they must be right? That is a desperate argument. It could also be a display of how bitter and resentful they were that they did not get the result they wanted.
