Another Progressive Self-Excommunicates Over Political Correctness Thugsquads

Pretty much the same deal as Saudi "morality police" clubbing women down in the street, except more gayballz.

So, to state the obvious: Jon Chait is a jerk who somehow manages to be both condescending and wounded in his piece on political correctness. He gets the basic nature of language policing wrong, and his solutions are wrong, and he's a centrist Democrat scold who is just as eager to shut people out of the debate as the people he criticizes. That’s true.

Here are some things that are also true.

I have seen, with my own two eyes, a 19 year old white woman -- smart, well-meaning, passionate -- literally run crying from a classroom because she was so ruthlessly brow-beaten for using the word "disabled." Not repeatedly. Not with malice. Not because of privilege. She used the word once and was excoriated for it. She never came back. I watched that happen.

I have seen, with my own two eyes, a 20 year old black man, a track athlete who tried to fit organizing meetings around classes and his ridiculous practice schedule (for which he received a scholarship worth a quarter of tuition), be told not to return to those meetings because he said he thought there were such a thing as innate gender differences. He wasn’t a homophobe, or transphobic, or a misogynist. It turns out that 20 year olds from rural South Carolina aren’t born with an innate understanding of the intersectionality playbook. But those were the terms deployed against him, those and worse. So that was it; he was gone.

I have seen, with my own two eyes, a 33 year old Hispanic man, an Iraq war veteran who had served three tours and had become an outspoken critic of our presence there, be lectured about patriarchy by an affluent 22 year old white liberal arts college student, because he had said that other vets have to "man up" and speak out about the war. Because apparently we have to pretend that we don’t know how metaphorical language works or else we’re bad people. I watched his eyes glaze over as this woman with $300 shoes berated him. I saw that. Myself.

These things aren’t hypothetical. This isn't some thought experiment. This is where I live, where I have lived. These and many, many more depressing stories of good people pushed out and marginalized in left-wing circles because they didn't use the proper set of social and class signals to satisfy the world of intersectional politics. So you'll forgive me when I roll my eyes at the army of media liberals, stuffed into their narrow enclaves, responding to Chait by insisting that there is no problem here and that anyone who says there is should be considered the enemy.

By the way: in these incidents, and dozens and dozens of more like it, which I have witnessed as a 30-hour-a-week antiwar activist for three years and as a blogger for the last seven and as a grad student for the past six, the culprits overwhelmingly were not women of color. That’s always how this conversation goes down: if you say, hey, we appear to have a real problem with how we talk to other people, we are losing potential allies left and right, then the response is always "stop lecturing women of color." But these codes aren't enforced by women of color, in the overwhelming majority of the time. They’re enforced by the children of privilege. I know. I live here. I am on campus. I have been in the activist meetings and the lefty coffee houses. My perspective goes beyond the same 200 people who write the entire Cool Kid Progressive Media.

Thanks to @GadsdenJazz. And, Open Thread.

13 ALEC has been a very effective force for passing laws supporting individual freedom and liberty. So it was targeted by the Left for destruction.

Most of the tech industry has already cut ties, and now the defense industry. Google and Microsoft and the others left last year, Northrop is leaving this year.

15 Chait's article was a bad joke: The idea that political correctness went somewhere after the early 90s is the least unfunny joke ever


It intensified, driving non-Left adjunct faculty out of universities. The Left takes no prisoners while we're still trying to get them to like us.

38 Anyone who lives in a liberal enclave of whatever size should start planning their exit.

You will soon reveal yourself and be forced to
a) repudiate your beliefs
b) be outed and repudiated while being forced from your position (which may or may not include your source of finances)
c) be physically attacked or at risk of attack and outed and repudiated and forced from any positions that are remunerative to you.

It's inevitable. The atmosphere is corrosive. Do you find yourself modifying your beliefs to conform to your locale?

Have you defended practices which on later thought you realize you would never have done so in the past?

Do you find yourself disdainful or critical of your conservative friends from other (less liberal) areas?

You will be absorbed, you actions will change and you will become something you didn't want to be.

This is very much aimed at Ace. I've noticed here and there a tone that strikes me as being more liberal than it seemed to be in the almost recent past.
This may be due to a romantic interest. (always a corrosive effect on one's political and social beliefs if the SO is more liberal than you).

At least try to find different venues and friends to spend your time in/with.

You'll find that moving, although expensive and disruptive, can be a game changer in terms of ones future prospects and attitude.

47 I think I've told this story already, but it bears repeating, just to act as more evidence of these jerks and their horrible behavior.
I took a sociology class my freshman year at college. We had small group discussions (30 people) once a week. I swear to God, every time we brought up a social, political, or philosophical position, I was on the side of conservatism and logic. The other 29 people- with one or two occasional exceptions- were arguing against me or staying silent. Trying to discuss the differences between men and women, or the definition of terrorism was insane. Sometimes, literally. These people were irrational. And I loved fighting with them; it was a great way to figure out my own political opinions, because I had to defend them like my life depended on it. But for someone less secure in their beliefs, that kind of treatment is awful.

1) make sure you can argue their own position better than they can; it makes you a better debater and strengthens your own position by understanding it more fully.

2) you will never be able to reason logically with them (see Hector, Gerg, Kos, DU) as they are drones. To win, take their position and run with it to the farthest extreme possible. It forces them to backtrack and then almost unwittingly begin arguing from a more conservative point of view. Almost immediately, they stop talking and then the veins in their neck bulge because they have no response.

104 I'll grant you that it's been awhile since college,
much less HS, but when you reach a certain level of accomplishment, and
have the self-confidence that goes with it, these mewling little insects
don't bother you. In fact, you prove to them that they're wrong, and
then you tell them to f*** off and grow a pair.


Posted by: pep at January 29, 2015 06:58 PM (4nR9/)
You're right, the only trouble is that people with less confidence get used to backing down, so even when they've accomplished things and have that confidence, they're in the habit of not saying anything, because they've been taught that it's easier to shut up and go with the flow.
Believe it or not, I started out very shy and was a bit of an outcast in school. But I've never been good at reading social cues, so when people tried to ostracize me, I refused to be silent, and kept trying to make my voice heard. Thank God, or I'd be another silent little LIV who keeps their head down for fear of making waves.

Bingo.


These people are diseased. They are shoddy thinkers, poorly educated, emotionally stunted, and as a result - evil.

I no longer think they are simply wrong. This implies that I think they can be corrected. They cannot, because they believe and feel that they are right with all the fervor of a newly converted religious zealot. They cannot be reasoned with because they didn't get to their current worldview by reason and observation. And they have no intention of keeping their hideous, twisted worldview to themselves.

They are the enemy to me, and I will no longer waste my time believing that they are open to reason and argument. They certainly view me as one; I'm just going to return the favor.

I responded, well it was in the title of the damn chapter. The class bulldyke mulatto wouldn't let it go and told me I needed to be more sensitive. I said, what about the 'Oriental Market'?

That suggests that there is something that we can do from the comfort of our own homes. Become the mirror images of Mobys. Don't go on left wing sites and pretend to be racist. They are always looking for that and delight in banning people for it. Instead, go to left wing sites and accuse everybody there of racism and all the invented sins of the left wing world. Jump on the most innocuous word, phrase or typo and browbeat the poster for unforgivable deviation from the path of correct thought. Use any kind of twisted logic or no logic at all. Don't worry about being too over the top because it is not possible to parody these people since they will always outdo your wildest and most excessive ideas. Create a brand new internet identity and use it exclusively to out-progressive the progressives.


The neat thing about doing this is that even if lefties catch on that conservatives are doing this to screw with them, they will then start accusing each other of being false flag conservatives and their sites will start banning a bunch of lefties.

No no I was not throwing my entitlement or nothing...

Just only saw the guy like twice he was in the WTU here and transitioning to VA care...

he had a prosthetic foot and was playing some basketball just messing around...

it really is astounding he was wearing jogging pants and you couldn't see the prosthetic unless you knew it was there...

he had a hitch in his step though and so after my usual 45 minute walk he was drinking at the snack bar... I walked laps on a track that is above and around the basketball area when it is set up...

he brought it up and aksed "let me ask you what's handicapable?" the Nurse at the VA used it...

I said "it is the new term for handicapped"

I didn't bring up PC the guy looked either Puerto Rican Hispano-Black or Mulatto....

and he said what I typed he was cool but bewildered at the VA.

He noticed me powerwalking at ~4.1 mph and was impressed and after I discovered he was "disabled not defeated" I was in awe that at that stage in his rehab he was walking and scampering so well.

240 Bader joined the RAF in 1928, and was commissioned in 1930. In December 1931, while attempting some aerobatics, he crashed and lost both his legs. Having been on the brink of death, he recovered, retook flight training, passed his check flights and then requested reactivation as a pilot. Although there were no regulations applicable to his situation, he was retired against his will on medical grounds.[3] After the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, however, Bader returned to the RAF and was accepted as a pilot. He scored his first victories over Dunkirk during the Battle of France in 1940.

249 Why is 'oriental' offensive? Because they needed to be. They take a word that means Eastern and demand that you use the word Asian instead.

Asian which encompasses an entire continent rather than the specific region of South East Pacific Asia.

It really just seems that they needed something to complain about.

They did, they being affluent white lefties with nothing better to do, just need something to complain about.

As an Oriental, I'm fine with "Oriental." Or as my adoptive, Appalachia-raised mother pronounces it, "Oral-Lentil."

250 Differently abled is also really stupid because it completely fails to acknowledge anyone who wasn't born with their "diferentability".

For example, my dear husband has debilitating arthritis. But, but, sputter the SJWs he is also incredibly intelligent. He's differently abled. Not so much physically, but extra special mentally.

Yeah, ok, but he was smart before his hands started turning in on themselves. That's just a disability you nitwits. There are no super powers from mutilans.

The way you keep score is by counting up the number of lefties that you have gotten banned from left wing sites.


In the Kurt Vonnegut book, "Mother Night" there was a character who was a Jew living in Germany when the Nazis were first coming into power. He obtained a false ID with an impeccable Aryan pedigree and joined the SS. He rose to such a respected position that he was given the task of finding the spy in his organization that was giving information to the Allies. He was they spy but he said with pride that based on his investigation, a dozen SS men were shot.

Jon Chait is an asshole. He's wrong. I don't want these kids to be more like Jon Chait. I sure as hell don't want them to be less left-wing. I want them to be more left-wing. I want a left that can win, and there's no way I can have that when the actually-existing left sheds potential allies at an impossible rate. But the prohibition against ever telling anyone to be friendlier and more forgiving is so powerful and calcified it's a permanent feature of today's progressivism. And I'm left as this sad old 33 year old teacher who no longer has the slightest fucking idea what to say to the many brilliant, passionate young people whose only crime is not already being perfect.

he's only complaining because it hurts his own numbers/cause

he's an asshole too

Because that is how fresh new libertaro-contervatives are minted.

In order to change, people need to have an emotionally traumatic experience. And the kind of trauma necessary can only be delivered by people you trust.

and French Fries...well Fries are awesome...and if I gave in to my desires on fries I'd weigh ~ 800 pounds....

I take a kettle of premium peanut oil, deep russet baking taters time spices and A-1 sauce and go to town....

AND

I
eat instead Ore-Ida fries that while better than its peer group are to

himself from his death bed, struggles down the stairs. With his dying
breath he reaches for a cookie from the serving plate.

450 Intersectionality and Kyriarchy are related items . They posit that the "kyriarchs" (AKA straight White cis-gendered able-bodied males) oppress everyone else by getting everybody else to oppress each other.

For example, they get a straight black man to oppress women and gay, they get white male gays to oppress black females, &c.

Thus, the only way to throw off oppression, is to reject their other aspects which are "privileged" and thus evil. Thus a white woman must reject her whiteness in order to liberate her as a women, or a black man must reject his heterosexuality and maleness in order to liberate his Blackness.

The only highlight was it made the depressing liberal nonsensical typical bullshit headlines of today...'a walk in the park in comparison.' I guess I could be generous and explain that his botched plastic surgeries had no bearing on his horrendous acting skills or in anyway effected his three eight-ball a day coke habit. If anything they only added substance to his checkerboard attempt at life. Rourke leaves the set of the 1870`s western in act two and hails a cab for Burbank, where he promptly gets arrested with a hooker and filming is delayed three months while he serves his sentence. The conclusion of the movie finds Rourke escaping across the Rio Grande in a stolen border patrol SUV with his intentions of a new life in Mexico in tow...Rated 'R' for repulsive...!

I know Lefties from non-political areas of my life. They broadsided me with stuff like "critical studies" or "kyriarchy" or with statistics they decare to be true because I can't pull a 1000-page statistical analysis out of my a$$.

That, and the Left's unrelenting push forward, I wanted to jump ahead and at least see what was coming next.

LGBTQ stuff is a done deal.

The entire "gender"/"trans" stuff is soon to be crossing the finish line.

They aren't all serious and half of them won't even make it to Iowa but we have at least a half dozen good (not perfect), strong candidates.
The Dems have Hilary and Bernie Sanders. Jim Webb. Maybe Lizzie Warren. You can think of other possible candidates but they have names like John Kerry, Evan Bayh, Mark Warner or Chuck Schumer. Or Michelle Obama. Hard to imagine them as serious candidates.

Since the Constitutional purpose of the census is apportioning Congressional districts, I answered only the questions that established that I was a person who lives in my district, and left the rest blank. I never heard from them.

Of course, I suppose one of their employees could have filled the rest in any way they wanted to.

582 Regarding the gay insults thing, I had an incident years ago, where some idiot on a motorcycle was racing down the road at about twice the speed limit. I was well in front of him, and I could have let him pass, but he was in the left-hand lane, and I was going to have to move into it, to turn up my street shortly.

So I gently nudged into "his" lane. I made my turn, and knucklehead decides to u-turn on this four-lane road, and follow me. I hit the breaks, right in the middle of the street, wait for him to approach, and my thinking is, I'm not having him follow me all the way to my house, and if we're going to have it out, one of us is going to be sorry, and I don't believe it will be me.

As he rolls up to my vehicle, he immediately launches into this thing about how I could have orphaned his kids this evening, and by now I'm thinking, fine, just end it so I can go home without any further hassle.

So I apologize. Obviously I am not actually sorry for anything, but I'm trying to be the bigger man here. As he's rolling his bike back away, to leave my street, he tosses out a series of epithets, suggesting I am a gay homosexual, or some such.

I had to laugh. I mean, he could have ended up a grease stain on my back bumper, and really, had I orphaned his children that day, I kinda think that wouldn't have been such a bad thing.

That is an interesting thought- dystopias. I could be wrong about this but here is what it seems like to me.

Liberals favorite dystopias seem to be ones brought on by climate change, overpopulation, food shortages etc.

Conservative seem to favor ones like Zombie apocalypse, EMP attacks, Soviet invasions, nuclear wasteland, etc.

One could make an argument that conservative's dystopia is based around a complete breakdown of social order and lack of that social network, whereas a liberal's is more focused on the damage to the planet, which is really about damage the lack of resources have done to their society.

I have always wondered if dystopias are people imagining a post-societal reality that they would want to live in. The one you find more appealing to exist in is the one you gravitate to.

I am not sure what this says, but it is something I think about and argue with friends about. It is a good conversation starter.

Bingo. Ironically, it is probably some kind of trauma that drives any person to follow politics in the first place. Life has been so deceptively easy...what drives anyone to "activism"? And what could be more characteristic of our current political climate than betrayal.

595 "I have always wondered if dystopias are people imagining a post-societal
reality that they would want to live in. The one you find more
appealing to exist in is the one you gravitate to."


Could be that if you consider certain outcomes possible or likely that you might spend more time thinking about the way it might go, contemplating how you might handle, and, what you might need to prepare. Once you've spent that time and effort you will likely then be more likely to bring up or talk about that scenario.

596 Late to this but no matter:

Harry Reid, by keeping things off of Obama's desk, was probably trying to save the Democrats. After ObamaCare he knew what he was dealing with in the White House. And he likely thought that just shutting everything down would prevent the Prince of Petulance from vetoing things that everyone would be saying "Huh? Why veto this?" about.


His was a delaying action - delay everything to maintain party unity, to keep splits in the party between legislators and the White House from being so obvious even Politico would notice. Now he can no longer do that and Prince Petulant is throwing about his ideas to the point that the Democrat House leadership is charging in and saying "No."

And now the Keystone XL bill has passed the senate. Now the Prince Petulant can veto. And no a thousand bills with real bipartisan support can go to the veto pen.

Now the fun can come forward, now the intra-party fight that the Democrat leadership has been trying to stave off can be fueled.

And with Chait declaring that he is exhausted by the demands of the hard left, the real internal fight of the Left and the Democrats (whether reported or not) can get on.


I sit back and await the first leaks.

You could be right. Leftist dystopias like soylent green or that one Star Trek episode could be said to be more about what should be done to prevent them (population control) than about what it would say about the human condition.

Did anyone ever read a series of books done by.. SM Stirling (I think) that were set in the Terminator universe. The first book was interesting but it quickly got tiresome but one thing I think the author got dead to rights was that some of the human collaborators with Skynet were doing it so that they themselves would be able to enjoy a perfect, untouched planet after all of the other humans were annihilated. Of course, Skynet did not give a shit about the environment, and was just using them up until they stopped being useful when they were eliminated, but it struck a true cord for me about some of the environazi's motivations.

I was also reminded of it when the history channel ran that "Life after People" series, which seemed disturbing, not for it's content, but because it seemed way to positive on the idea.

If anyone thinks that the Left is not willing to indulge in a pathetic navel-gazing round of who is more privileged and who has the most victim cred; well then you have never been to a faculty budget fight.


The Left lives to savage anyone who is not in their particular "clan" more than the old AoSHQ gets too. See 'Life of Brian' for an historical view of that or look at how many 'Red Guard' groups/types the Left devolved into over the late 1960's-early 1970's.
