They're so pissed they couldn't herd other people they had to resort to herding themselves.

Lol, Arkansas. It'll implode within a year after someon in leadership finds out his sister's baby isnt his.

So, when someone gets divorced in Arkansas, are they still siblings?

Only if they were born in Mississippi or Louisiana.

Now they just need to build some tall fences. Not the inhabitants, the people outside the town. put up warning signs and lock the gates

I saw an interview with an ex white supremacist. He said most who join will leave, as it's mainly a big sausage fest.

It's nice all these racist homophobe men are all going to live together in the woods, free from women, having fun with their all male (but certainly not gay!) orgies.

Certainly cleans up society a bit :) I wish all nazis would start to live together, isolated from the rest of the world.

I can't even imagine what it must be like to be that frightened and insecure.

[-] mitch@piefed.mitch.science 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

that's one thing I never truly understood about grievance culture — they are the one group of people who can ignore all this and just piss away the days doing whatever they want, whenever they want to, and instead, they spend their lives destroying their bodies with cortisol.

if I had the confidence of a mediocre white man, I'd be famous.

[-] WatDabney@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 13 hours ago

My assumption is simply that they're such complete losers - such an awful combination of ignorant, angry and stupid - that being white and heterosexual are literally the only things they have going for them - that they have nothing of any actual value to offer to anyone.

And that's why they rage against "DEI" and "woke" and "race theory" and so on - because if they were to lose the built-in cachet that comes from being white and heterosexual, they'd have nothing at all.

Because yes - if they had anything at all of any value to offer anyone, they could focus on that instead, and pursue it with the built-in advantages of being white and heterosexual. That they don't pretty strongly indicates that they can't.

[-] mitch@piefed.mitch.science 2 points 13 hours ago

my personal experience agrees. I think this is what is powering Qanon as well — a deep, wrestling anxiety over the thought that they might have enabled really terrible things happening around them.

Like, for God's sake, this entire thing started with John Podesta supposedly emailing someone about a "cheese pizza," which is a term that is probably, unfortunately, deeply familiar to anyone who had precocious levels of Internet access in the early 2000s.

Basically, it is not a code word that a 70 year old man would use in 2014, in public email, on the campaign trail. In fact, he was ordering, literally, a fucking pizza for his staff.

[-] WatDabney@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 12 hours ago

And meanwhile, their hero president is a rapist who was best friends with and a regular guest of the most high profile child sex abuser and procurer in American history.

I would think that much cognitive dissonance would actually be painful.

Maybe it is, and that helps explain their constant misdirected seething rage.

The question is, why would that be a problem, but a community demanding that men don't participate is fine?

[-] The_Sasswagon@beehaw.org 2 points 13 hours ago

Sarcasctically, because one is in real life and the other in a computer, and you aren't being excluded or hurt from anything tangible. But I suspect you mean what if there were a town in real life that excluded men.

I think the inherent threat of violence would be a pretty clear difference between the the real and imagined scenario. I've been near a house with white power banners all over it in the south, I'm white and a man, and I felt threatened. I imagine the people those bigots hated would feel so much worse, more than I can realistically imagine. The threat of violence is inherent with racism everywhere, but in the rural US south, that racism carries more intent to do harm.

I do not imagine a town of women excluding men and by doing so imply they would hurt me or kill me if I came near or wandered into their town on accident. And I am a white man as I said before. Now if they also excluded trans women that would be a more clear indicator of bigotry and intent to harm.

And going back to the community you first mentioned, it doesn't allow men for the opposite reason, as I interpret it. It is to protect the women in the community from men who are much more likely to be a harm to the people inside. Because men are used to being allowed to go anywhere and everywhere, being gently told, "hey this discussion isn't for you, but you're welcome to sit and listen if you're quiet" is interpreted as an explicit act of violence, even though it's clearly not.

that's convincing, thanks!

i don't know why i hadn't thought of it. must be my lack of experience with thorough racists.

but your argument makes perfect sense, i'll remember it.

mind explaining how?

sigh i know it sounds like ragebait, but if anybody takes the time to actually think about it, would you point out where exactly the logical fallacy lies? you can't convince people by downvoting alone, at least not me. if you think you're right, i guess there's a proper argument to be formulated. i'd like to hear it.

[-] IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

except one being physical and the other one on the internet

yeah but i feel like that's not the reason

if a group of women demanded a private space for themselves in a public area, i guess people would be ok with that. why so? why wouldn't the same be accepted if it was instead a group of white people asking that no person of color intrude? isn't both discrimination?

or have we merely adopted a habit of granting women special rights, as a habit of culture? if so, it should be explicitely mentioned somewhere, otherwise our speech doesn't reflect our thoughts.

You’re such a victim, poor baby. This is your holocaust, your own personal holocaust.

dude i asked a straightforward question for the sake of understanding the logical structure of the argument one might bring up to defeat my point, and you're responding with a knee-jerk insult. not mature of you.

Cry about it.

That link doesn't work. Also, What's the problem with a women only community? I just won't go there, no big deal.

David, a member of the community, told Sky News, “It wouldn’t be controversial for any other racial group to do the same thing.” Similarly, Niki, said people have a “large misunderstanding” about the community, claiming it’s “a loving movement.”

Exclusion is all about love. Didn't you know? I love you so much that I don't want you near me.

Csere also accepted that some would call him and the group racist saying, “I don’t really know or care if that term applies to me or not.”

The only people who don't care if they're called racist are racists. I care if I'm called racist. I know that much.

Let's ask him if he knows or if he cares if the term pedophile is applied to him and see how he reacts. Bet he won't care one bit!

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I bet they do feel loving if you're straight, white, christian, and uncomfortable being around anyone who isn't.

Gross.

And if black folks had a town where they said "no whites", the Pedo Party would be sending the military in there...

Though I do like the idea of towns with zero tolerance of MAGAt morons/ aka republikkkans. Imagine how nice that'd be.

Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
