At least for your spiritual forebears.
It is the 73rd anniversary of Kristallnacht. They can sure teach you a thing or two about dealing with people who refuse to submit to truth.
It is also the anniversary of the failed Beer Hall Putsch, which just says that if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Your Will will Triumph in the end.
And as for other people that refuse to give up when they are reaching for the stars, it is also the anniversary of October Revolution and Joseph Stalin first entering the provisional government of Bolshevik Russia. Just look how far he got.
It’s a happy day all round. You might want to celebrate by denouncing some more random people that disagree with you to whatever authorities you think care.

That is very sexist of you, posting a picture of a male with which to illustrate your monotribe.
Why not post a picture of a woman?
(Are we allowed to refer to females as “women”? I know that we are not allowed to refer to women as “females”. Just ask ironkidd!)

But which is worse? PZ makes people go daft.

just use a picture of Umbridge instead. Everyone will know what you’re talking about, and face it, she’s kind of scarier than PeeZus.

Not through fapping, though…

Oh Jason Beiber is still on his FINALLY! WE WILL PUSH BACK AGAINST MYSOGINIST TROLLS with obligatory link to his own opinions about outing franc.
Does he actually understand what these women, (Not umbridge or zvan) are talking about? If the WORST of the crap they got was like Franc’s occasional comments on FTB, that would be a relief. “What’s that? three comments? And the rest is all on his site or someone else’s? Um…okay. Yeah, i”ll take that.”
There’s a bit of a difference between the nontroversy beebs is trying to drum up and the kind of shitstorm these folks are talking about. Really. But wait, I’m thinking again, aren’t I? I’m way to deep in my rational EVERYTHING IS NOT THE SAME land again, aren’t I.
sigh. When shall I ever learn. WHENNNNNNNNN?

On an uncharacteristically serious note, if I hadn’t mentioned before, I really have reservations about making the comparisons to mass-murdering fascist regimes. The rule that has been drilled into my head is that historical analogies are always wrong. Comparing to Orwellian dystopia, on the other hand, I can accept. Anyway!
To keep in spirit with the post…
John C. Welch, you fascist-supporting, anti-privacy, freedom-hating Apple fanboy! I’m going to report you to the Order of the GNU and have you blacklisted from the Church of Emacs! fnord

Oh point well and truly taken. However, I do not stick to specifics and rotate between idiocies as circumstance dictates. I personally think that the political distinctions between various totalitarianisms is irrelevant – the important things that unify them never vary. They all want absolute control, zero criticism, and worship for infallibility. They also have no sense of humour whatsoever.
However, I still maintain that the most valid comparison for the baboons is to contemporary islamism. Yesterday was just a coincidence of events occurring that are very much from the same ideological cesspit that the baboon board wallows in is all.

Franc, did you see “over there” yesterday that PZ reassured everyone that he was not going to star in pr0nos? However, Greta wants to do them but thinks she can’t because she’s an official spokesman/woman/person for the atheist community.
Must have been a slow news day…
BTW, aren’t pr0nos supposed to be degrading towards women? Am I reading this right that feminists want to perform in them though? Beam me up Scotty.

She can star in what films she likes, (with the informed consent of all parties of course), but “official” o-bloody-ficial?
Please tell me that you invented this conceit. Please!
First Becca claiming to speak on behalf of every living creature with XX chromosomes, now this.
Surely she did not make that ludicrous claim? (Don’t expect me to go there and read the original, I am having dinner.)
By who’s Royal Warrant has she acquired the “official” title?
Can I get one?
Is Franc eligible for such an award?
If not, why not?

Urgh. It got emailed to me (thanks Tuuli, neglected to reply) and I got some backsplash. No I haven’t looked…

but “official” o-bloody-ficial?
Yes the arrogance is appalling, but is it surprising? You know the answer to that yourself – they are self-appointed everything.
Is Franc eligible for such an award?
No. Franc is Dave Mabus.

It’s not even double-standards anymore, it’s triple and quadruple. Sacha just sent me this –

I don’t believe anything GC says any more than I believe Myers is an honest man. This is just more gibberish with no purpose other than to generate blog hits. GC has a long history of spouting crap just for that purpose, including baiting Myers directly in articles she’s done on alternet. These baboons are all the same.

MKG, ‘an official’ was actually ‘a respected’. My bad. PZ quote:
“I can see where some people might enjoy it… like Greta Christina, who regrets that social mores mean she can’t both do porn and be a respected spokesperson for atheism.”
Not much difference between the two words when used in this context, imo.
November 12, 2011 at 8:11 am
The thought of GC porn makes me feel quite ill.
November 12, 2011 at 7:06 am
I don’t know why, but the image macro (is that what you call it?)of PZ cracks me up..
It reminds this blogger’s work:

That Christina post must be throwing Skeptifem into a bottomless coma. After all, she’s the misandrist moron who insists that all porn, without exception, is sexist, misogynistic, and harmful (http://skeptifem.blogspot.com/2011/07/feminist-opposition-to-porn-v-religious.html).
