how the hell is that 'mansplaining'? yeah this is about the most ridiculous clusterfuck ever

Legendary General Cypher Raige (Gukbe), Thursday, 18 October 2012 23:46 (thirteen years ago)

the main thing i get from the convo just posted is that Mordy is actually trying to engage with the question on his own terms after making the logical leap most people would make to suicide. That that, somehow, is disallowed by the threadstarter which is frankly ridiculous. discussing the fantasy of not existing without discussing suicide is basically not possible. and i say that as someone who thinks about it a fair bit.

jed_, Thursday, 18 October 2012 23:52 (thirteen years ago)

well i'm a bit drunk.

jed_, Thursday, 18 October 2012 23:53 (thirteen years ago)

Q: Why Can't the original question be clarified further down, e.g. "This is not about xxxx"?

Because if the discussion goes off, naturally, in that direction, does the OP have to then start a new thread? Or explain why not?

xpost Not Possible? Anything's possible!

i'm not a mansplaining expert but i always thought it was a more specific, patronizing attitude kind of thing where some dude basically commits the appeal to authority fallacy, but it appears that he's drawing his so-called "authority" from the fact that he's a man. i've definitely seen men do this to women many times before, so i actually kind of like the term because when people use it correctly it describes complex in a succinct way. i didn't think, though, that mansplaining referred to situations where someone is a man and talks

The crux of this whole mess revolves around the mental jiujitsu of turning a disagreement into a personal attack.

i think she should just get her own board where she starts the topics and deletes replies that do not answer the original question or replies that are triggering, and should see how many people want to be on the board and how many posts are left

The mansplaining and misogynist accusations are completely offensive in this case and WCC can fuck right off with that

it's not even so much that one must follow the dictates of the threadstarter but that one is virtually assaulting the threadstarter if one disagrees

xxxp yeah, not as great as EP (couldn't really be given its humbler ambitions) but the four long songs and 'nonsense' are kickass. that said the best 2 songs are probably still the 2 that were released as a single. that plank! band you mentioned sounded pretty cool too - anything else you reckon i'll dig, well, you know the batsignalj

btw the new thumpermonkey album is absolutely incredible and if you like rock, prog, metal, intricate melodies, math rock, mayhem etc then here's 50 minutes' worth you won't regret: http://soundcloud.com/thumpermonkey/sets/sleep-furiously/

maybe i'll even start a thread on them next week, they're that good

anyway there's no other avant-idiocy to task yall up on so have a good one and play nicer

aw dayo n mookie you dont hafta *sniff*

okok you want more well i'm reading gravity's rainbow for realsies and to be frank no other literature matters right now. it's a stage we all go thru eh...less than 1/2way and it feels like 4 novels already!

no i mean it honestly delights me that people that have seen my posts under this dn for 4+ years straight STILL can't help but use that phrase in posts all the time not in a purposeful joking way. it's become a social experiment for me. w/ the feigned outrage being all part of the fun.

this may shock you - but sometimes i refer to a generic "some dude" in real life!

down w/ obana...he is the reson were in dept (Z S), Friday, 19 October 2012 04:16 (thirteen years ago)

i think of myself as "some lady" all the time and iirc for a while i delighted in signing off every post with "some lady"
i get it!

Fwiw I wanted to post about this in the push button thread but by that time the thread had moved on but: the whole idea that 'self-nullification has nothing to do w suicide" xoncept has been getting a lot of los and cockeyed stares butiirc when WCC had started protesting about suicide, she had been p much the sole person who'd said she would push the button and virtually everyone else in that thread wad emphatically posting "hell no I would not take the get-out-of-life-free option" so I'm not convinced that a bunch of people who took great pains to distance themselves from a mindset that wd imagine such a button, and press it, are necessarily qualified to decide what a mindset like that is 'about'. I think there are a lot of reasons to start a thread like that, and if WCC was trying to proactively ward off any number of reductive speculations about the orig question being some sort of sublimated death wish or what have you, then I probably wouldn't blame her.

Of course, I def don't agree with how she's handled it since nor do I necc understand what she means about the suicide talk being some kind of triggering agent
