The right has this shit planned. If you aren't aware of what old money is. It controls the world. Tens of trillions of dollars in assets. The part people miss is that they only see rich as meaning/coming from liquid money + stocks etc. The very apparent stuff. They miss the owned debts and well hidden assets. Apple is the wealthiest company, right? laff. I forget but I think it's JP Morgan chase has well over $2trillion owed to them - debt. That's wealth. It's also more powerful than $2 trillion liquid cash.

Noticed how TPP is going around with relatively little notice by the general population? Oh. But gays can get married /yawn whatever. Oh and Ellen Pao is being held down by the cruel man.

The right. Well. No. The right and the left are the same fucking thing. Different means, identical ends. The big difference is the left has new money, the right has old money. Gates is new money. He's not that rich. He's the wealthiest in obvious wealth yes. If you think people with tens of billions of dollars keep it in plain sight. I have news for you: they don't.

For the left ends = right ends but means are different thing. Has anyone else noticed how the right wants to break encryption for the whole NSA nonsense. The left wants to so anonymity is gone from the internet. Different means, same ends.

I said it once and I'll say it again I can't stand that they paint Ellen as a fighter of equality in silicon valley when all she is, is a money chasing opportunist.

Because the goal is not what you think it is. Feminism doesn't even factor.

The goal is to subjugate and insult your mind with nonsense until it doesn't work properly, until you begin to doubt reality itself. They'll throw insane stories at you, they'll make you stomp around with rage because the whole society has missed the whole point of the story. They'll make you paranoid and terrified that something you might do will cause this crazy cascade somehow, with you as the target. They'll get you wondering what the hell has happened to the human mind that this stuff can even happen. You'll say what happened to the world, why is everything so strange strange strange and insane!??!

And then they will rule you.

They would rather put forward the small gender inequality gap (that they are historically to blame for in the first place) than the massive class inequality gap. Smokes and mirrors by pyromaniac firefighters.

I think wired might have been somewhat satirical. Like "oh Ellen, you got yourself fired this time? Before the just denied you an undeserved raise"

The rest are just written by people who should have ended up in a Kleenex.

Narcissist are fast at showing to everyone around that THEY are the victim. Most of the time there arguments don't stand up at all, but it doesn't matter since they are expert in manipulation, so unsuspecting people buy it anyway. It's rule #1 : if you attack them, you will be seen as the aggressor. Rule# 2: don't try to use logic, you will fail!

ForTheHorde

I guess we're just using different dictionaries. I was applying the classical definition of "a situation where many people leave the same place at the same time," whereas you must have meant, "when I leave a place months ago. Yeah. That's when an exodus begins."

Please don't click on the links, don't give these cocksuckers the ad revenue.

Adblock should probably prevent any but if you know how I can use archive or anything other would be appreciated. Upvoated

ForTheHorde

I think it's their way of letting her save face a little for fracking up so badly. You can't blame them for circling the wagons around one of their own - marginalizing the legitimacy of someone's complaint by demogoguing them (read: censorship) is on page one of their playbook.

I'm well aware, but Victoria was the tip of the iceberg, the last drop before the cup run over. You know what I mean...

Sciency

The straw the broke the camels back, perhaps?

The snowflake that caused he avalanche?

(I promise I'm not making fun of you, I just love isms.)

ForTheHorde

That's what started the unrest; not the exodus.

the_subhorizon

Click bait. You say it's something radical like misogyny so people who agree will share to celebrate and people who disagree will share to say it's bullshit.

You linked multiple articles about it. Congratulations, you contributed.

wootnessmonsters

Well I needed to provide evidence for my claims but how do I use archive and such? I have no idea how that works...

Many say click bait but I tend to think it's much deeper than that.

the_subhorizon

Go to archive.is, paste the link, it crunches out the archive and gives you a new url. Paste that where ever you want.

Thanks! The magic is real :3

Because mainstream media is propaganda. The ruling elite control the media, and they're using it to sew division in between the lower classes. Man against woman. White against black. Muslim against Christian. The idea is to get people scared and feeling isolated. In this manner, a populace is easier to control.

I wish I had an upgoat to give you. Patrick Henry called it back in 1799:

In his final public speech, two months before his death: 'Clasping his hands and swaying unsteadily, Henry declaimed, "Let us trust God, and our better judgment to set us right hereafter. United we stand, divided we fall. Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs." At the end of his oration, Henry fell into the arms of bystanders and was carried almost lifeless into a nearby tavern.' (quote taken from wiki)

wootnessmonsters

Fully and totally agree! Could it be that racism and prejudice from various religions/nations are at decline so what they need now for division and conquer tactics to rule/control society is "Men vs Women"?

A good portion of the modern media can be explained through the 1984 newspeak term: doublethink. I assume you already have an idea of what it is, so to answer your question most feminists are using doublethink to have contradicting ideas in their heads. As feminism has gotten older, more misinformation has been spread about the plight of oppressed women, and as a result Pao is just another oppressed minority attacked by the Patriarchy.

I don't personally believe these things, but the media uses these clickbait titles because marketing to SJWs is very profitable nowadays. A "social justice warrior" tends to be someone passionate enough to talk the talk, but never walk the walk, so they tend to be the main audience in these stories about "being oppressed". All that being said, I think the whole mess will die down soon since the media is just craving for a new scandal every day.

Sciency

Not sure how much this has to do with business motivations now that Pao is unemployed, but Wired and reddit are owned by the same parent company. I haven't checked the connections between verge, or guardian yet, but there are always inside motives when there is this much movement on anything that can make money.

wootnessmonsters

But why zero mentioning of Victoria? Why do they want to stir up this hatred to say "the whole world is against women!"? It's hard to think it's only clickbait/profit only.

I can't imagine what this does to non-reddit/non-internet users.

It goes back to Rome. Once a region was conquered they would put tribes that were hostile to one another close together because their hostilities towards each other made them easier to rule. Same reason the media stoke black vs white, man vs woman, immigrant vs American. I believe Rome started many of the practices that have been perfected by the elite today. My favorite example is Bread and Circuses aka keep the citizen entertained and they will not only tolerate rule but their civic duty will erode to nothing.

Shaden

I think it's mostly because if they mention men supporting a woman their entire argument falls apart. I myself don't understand why people keep peddling the same narrative about women being fragile and weak in the workplace, while simultaneously complaining about the lack of women in said place. In a lot of ways people that peddle this argument want to remain the victim forever until it is no longer popular to have that opinion. The media, in my opinion, is either half-researching the story or is omitting Victoria's support on Reddit because their audience can't understand a grey area where a woman's actions were bad against another women. It's double standards, but that's the logic behind it as far as I know.

wootnessmonsters

But why haven't a single article been written to tell the truth? Why would that not generate tons of revenue when it's actually an interesting story where the whole internet is protesting against this one giant censorship-machine who fired a beloved person of theirs and started revolting through various means? There's clearly more too it then just the money I think.
