Mordy, Friday, 13 July 2012 19:08 (eleven years ago) link

the truth is me beefing at all this week (starting in genderfucked through stand up) is a little bit of an aberration? i've tried to stay cool as of late but Johnny Fever is otm it's too hot here and i'm restless and easily annoyed

Mordy, Friday, 13 July 2012 19:09 (eleven years ago) link

we r cool now & i didn't have a prob w/ your posts in that thread but i can't remember, there were a lot of them. you weren't one of the 4 tho. was mostly lamenting ppl otming frog's "you're not really offended" thing

i find it hard to hate frogs, maybe because i sort of see myself in him. i was dumb when i started posting here too. but i was like 19

Andrew Farrell, Friday, 13 July 2012 20:32 (eleven years ago) link

Mordy I agree with the stuff you've been saying about signaling points, I think that is a real phenomenon and has at least as much to do with why frogbs posting in any thread causes trainwrecks as his actual posting does.

xp oh yeah, there is genuine misogyny, I believe that. But when you find it everywhere I get such a 'boy who called wolf' vibe that drives me insane, because it undermines all of us.

when a male poster says something wcc doesn't like, she asks them to stop "mansplaining" things to her

(✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Tuesday, 16 October 2012 16:17 (eleven years ago) link

i don't know how helpful it is to chime in here, neither do I really want to stand around not saying anything, so... Anyway, I've had similar confrontations with WCC in only the last couple of weeks - ones which have escalated extremely rapidly from polite thread conversation > assumed insinuation > belligerent and wilful misunderstandings > aggressive accusations > seeing myself being bitched about on Twitter, and while it's frustrating and upsetting to be accused of advocating misogyny/sexual abuse/and more because of some minor incompatibility of views on some band or other, seeing it aired in places outside of ILX is, well it's pretty shocking when you come across it.
What I'm more concerned about is why this seems to be happening so often. I've met and gotten along very well with WCC in the past (several years ago now) - she's a thoroughly nice person IRL and I'm therefore alarmed at the way some of these beefs appear to escalate. It's never been my intention to cause pile-ons or act like (too much of) a dick on this board, and somehow I still end up in that maelstrom - being called out for pretty much anything I post that doesn't quite jibe with the poster's particular point of view. I love a heated and healthy debate, but when labels and accusations are thrown around in a personal manner, it goes from fun to sad very very quickly. When a poster's genuine attempts to make peace and get back on track with a thread are immediately thrown back in their face with even uglier accusations, that's the tipping point where the issue has to be addressed (as on this thread) - especially when it's not only disrupting the flow of conversation but actively upsetting other people and even putting a mark on their character, usually undeserved.

I love that mordy is trying to defend himself about not being a misogynist when his twitter avatar is a CRYING WOMAN

i do not however agree with jon's previously stated advocacy of race war

jon and kate catch h8 (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 16 October 2012 16:18 (eleven years ago) link

eh look it was my impression that mordy didn't like or respect WCC very much before this and they had bad history here.

but this isn't even something i should be butting into, in my opinion, so i'm going to drop it.
