Yup.

Same as feminists.

Not biting the bait, it's too obvious. Try something more subtle.

It's true of ideological zealots regardless of beliefs or era. When you've got people organizing the movement with Machiavellian mindsets and plenty of useful idiots that are plenty happy to join the mob mentality you get what I think is something that has plagued most every movement in history. I don't think the feminist movement is at all immune to it.

Absolutely. I actually agree with you. The problem is that plenty of incels can't wait to miss the point and turn it around and say "feminism is bad". Kinda like saying "saving the environment is bad" only because of all the bored idiots who ruin paintings and all that.

You want LGBT to get rid of bad actors, and so am I.

Guess what? The same applies to feminists. Get rid of the cat litter stinking cunts and we can talk.

You can't get the nutcases out of the so-called lgbt movement any more than I can get the idiots out of feminism. So I propose a different solution. Don't call yourself pro-lgbt, don't call yourself feminist. Just be a person with decent views, such as treating gay people and women and other races normally.

They identify as communists, bigot.

Well, of course- more proof the issue isn't right vs. left wing, it's authoritarian vs. non-authoritarian.

Unfortunately, the authoritarians have taken over both the left and right wing parties so it is down to "we've already lost, just wait until one side wins and be sent to the death camps."

No they don't. They identify as "liberal" and/or "progressive", which once upon a time actually meant something but now just means "we're the Good Guys and you're not".

And even if they did, so what? Troons also identify as women, doesn't mean they are women. They're just men cosplaying as women.

[–]Q-Continuum-kin 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Some of them definitely "identify as" communists but yes that doesn't make them actual communists.

You are literally describing feminism you dopey fuck...

Nazi used to mean only one thing: a member of the WW2 era Nazi party.

Then decades after the war, a bunch of bumblefuck Nazi glorifiers/worshippers came on the scene but they weren't called Nazis, they were called "Neo-Nazis" to distinguish them from the real Nazis. That was okay, because Nazi still meant Nazi.

80s/90s comes around, the internet age, people on message boards would start flame wars and the arguments would always devolve into comparisons to Nazism (see: Godwin's Law) and now Nazi meant "anybody having one or more of the political attributes of Hitler"

Then we had that Seinfeld episode about the "Soup Nazi" and it culturally caught on. Regular people started using Nazi to mean "anybody with a vaguely authoritarian attitude"

2010/2020s roll around and Nazi has barely any meaning now. Basically if you're slightly right of center you're a Nazi. If you hold even one traditional value you're a Nazi. If you don't think giving away free money solves any problems you're a Nazi. And get this: IF YOU SUPPORT ISRAEL YOU'RE NAZI. Lolwhat?

So yeah, there's no point to using that word anymore. It's meaningless.

To get deeper into that, nazi = nazist = nationalist.
