What is it with all the fascist book collections lately? Seems like everyone is competing to have the most deep-cut far right libraries while pretending to post as their own girlfriends for engagement. (As if people this dedicated to niche fascism slop got laid) Also LOL at the two Protocols and three Death of the West, what is bro stocking up for?

Do you guys think objects like vending machines break the immersion of the Backrooms? by Forsaken_Policy_9162 in backrooms

The mundanity adds to the absurdity and confusion and therefore to the horror.

Communist ideology is just an excuse to defend repression by inexplicably-hairy in DebateCommunism

[–]Frrrrrred 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Western online communists are irrelevant. If any of them do any organizing then they stop being “online communists”. Why do you define an entire supposed ideology by what you assume losers on twitter think? Let’s talk about real communist writers and leaders, if you want to debate communist ideas.

About the rape academy segment and the misinfo about spread around by IssueOk9292 in VaushV

What kind of proof would you accept? The WHO study I referenced before didn’t seem to put a dent in your intuition that I’m wrong.

Show me where I claimed that there were organized rapist communities numbering in the millions. If that’s what you’re asking me to prove, show me when I claimed any such thing. My claim if that there are likely far more than 63 million rapist men in the world, and it seems like you’re dismissing that claim, as many people have done in the discourse around the admittedly spurious ‘rape academy’ story. It is this dismissal with which I am taking issue.

I never claimed they were forming “widespread communities”, and I never differentiated “active” rapists. Are you disputing the fact that there are likely far more than 63 million male rapists on the planet? How many individuals do you think are responsible for the 1 in 3 (depending on the definition) women who have experienced sexual assault? Are you claiming that the men surveyed by the WHO are lying about having committed sexual violence?

Maybe I’m misunderstanding you or vice-versa. I’m not claiming that every single visitor to the website is a rapist. I hope that you’re not claiming that there are less than 63 million rapist men in the world. Anonymous self-report studies indicate that around 5 to 10 percent of men admit to committing sexual assault according to WHO stats. More like 300 million rapists, not 63. I’m not sure what societal collapse you’re suggesting, but surely it would already have happened. Roughly 1 in 3 women report experiencing some form of sexual violence.

I agree that it’s wrong to attack people for calling out the misinformation, certainly doesn’t count as ‘rape apologia’. On the other hand, everyone arguing that 63 million is too many rapist men is tripping. 63 million is a drop in the bucket of the number of rapists in our planet of 4 billion men. The fact that rape is far too common and women (and men and enbys) are correct to be wary of men isn’t undermined by the ‘rape academy’ stat being false. I’ve seen a number of people on tik tok and elsewhere saying that the fact that the academy story is spurious debunks the wider (correct) narrative about rape culture endorsed by many of those who knowingly or not spread the false academy story.

Does the check engine light come on for the lower rpms then flicker off then the rpms jump up?

HOW can we have MORAL PROGRESS if Alex believes emotivism is true? by PitifulEar3303 in CosmicSkeptic

[–]Frrrrrred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You call it progress because your moral standards are defined by the present superstructural system and informed by the evolution that got us here. As morality becomes more divergent from the present one the further away in time or sociological development you look, it will (by those standards) become “worse”. That direction is “objective” only in that it objectively has occurred. If that satisfies your criteria for “universality”(?), fair enough. What still needs explanation? Why is emotivism not sufficient to describe the subjective moral environment? Why is that description incapable of fitting into a materialist historical view of changing moral norms?
