Men who are accused of rape on a University campus can have their right of due process and trial by a jury of their peers stripped from them. In place of it, they can then be “convicted” by the university if the investigating body believes there is a 50.0001% chance that the man committed the rape.

https://studentactivism.net/2011/07/21/preponderance-of-the-evidence/

In addition, the accused is not allowed to seek any outside legal counsel, also taking away his right to an attorney. what this means is that men are literally stripped of constitutional rights to an actual investigation and can have their entire life ruined just because some dumbass sorority girl falsely accused them. and lets be real here who do you think they’re gonna side with? thats right. the girl. nobody’s gonna side with a college guy. people already think they’re the scum of the earth right? and now they’ve got some poor girl with crocodile tears enforcing that belief. that guy is pretty much fucked.

Can't be guilty of something if you accuse everyone else of doing what you’re doing and redefine bad things in a way that they cant apply to you

Social Justice Warriors do not view all humans as equal
Using a “privilege” hierarchy, SJW’s calculate the worth of a human being based on perceived injustices or wrongs that group has suffered since the time of ancestral man, using selective and narrow interpretations of history. SJW’s elevate groups that they believe have received the least amount of “privilege” in the past, and then use internet activism in the form of mobs and community purges to target those who are determined to have greater amounts of privilege. The idea of privilege is so essential to SJW ideology that a common debate tactic they use is to say “check your privilege,” which roughly translates to, “you must immediately halt or change your speech because your ancestors may or may not have done bad things to others centuries ago.”

For example, if a notable white American male makes a joke about a lesbian black woman who practices Islam, SJW’s will coordinate using a combination of blogs, Youtube, and social networking to dox him (publish his personal information, including where he works). They will then pressure the man’s company by flooding it with calls and messages with the goal to remove his source of income while engaging in a mass reporting campaign to get his online accounts suspended.

Their ultimate goal is to silence all speech that they don’t like and which they find offensive while also punishing the speech offender by removing his source of income. As they grow in power, the acceptable range of speech that would trigger a SJW witch hunt is becoming more narrow, and those who are high up on the privilege hierarchy (white men) have to speak through a careful filter if they don’t want to be subject to an SJW attack.

SJW’s make a big show of wanting “equality,” but as the Animal Farm quote goes: “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” They absolutely do not believe that a man deserves the same treatment that should be given to a woman of his same race. When they say “equality,” what they really mean is to apply special benefits to protected groups in order to create equality based on their subjective perception and feeling. They even go so far as to claim that women and non-whites can not possibly be racist against white men, they are “correcting historical wrongs and injustices,” not being a racist individual.

If you want to do a simple test that hurts an SJW’s argument that she is about equality, ask her the following: “Do you believe a black woman is equal to a white woman?” They will squirm mightily and may look to the left and right at their SJW friends to know what they think first before giving you a muddled answer that is inconsistent with their other stated beliefs.

Circumcision, more points that should be addressed:

FUNCTIONS OF THE FORESKIN (http://www.drmomma.org/2009/09/functions-of-foreskin-purposes-of.html):

Protection: The foreskin protects the glans, keeping it soft, warm and moist. It also helps balance pH and keep the glans clean. Because the glans itself has no sebaceous glands, which keep our skin moisturized and soft, the foreskin provides this service.
The foreskin also protects the whole penis from insults such as abrasions, contusions, lacerations, and burns.

Self-cleansing: The penis is an entry point for foreign microbes, just like the mouth and other orifices. Luckily, evolution has already conceived a solution; the urine of a healthy person is sterile and acts as a disinfectant. In an intact male, the urine swirls through the inside of the foreskin, naturally washing away any dangerous microbes. There is never urea found in the foreskin, however, because it also secretes cleansing fluids, similar to the eye (or the vagina).

Infant protection: In a young human, the foreskin is attached to the glans and protects the urethra from foreign contamination. The neck of the foreskin puts the urinary meatus (the hole from which urine/semen flow) at a safe distance from the external environment. Even when the foreskin unfuses from the glans and becomes retractable, it still spends most of its time covering the glans, protecting it from contamination and injury. An infant needs the built-in protection of an immovable foreskin because it is not yet able to consciously protect its genitals.

Immunity: The foreskin contains glands that produce antibacterial and antiviral proteins such as lysozyme, which is also found in breast milk and tears. Langerhan’s cells, which are an epithelial cell found all over the body and a component of the immune system, are abundant in the foreskin. The mucous membrane of the foreskin secretes immunoglobulin, an antibody. The foreskin also houses beneficial bacteria, just like the vagina, our gut, our skin, and pretty much every other part of the body. The beneficial bacteria are similar to those found at other entry points to the body, and help kill pathogens.

Sexual pleasure: The foreskin is very sensitive during sex, and facilitates smooth, painless motions during an erection and intercourse. It can sense very fine changes in temperature, texture, and motion. Its own self-lubricating qualities (precum, if you will) allow the penis to slide effortlessly and pleasurably within the foreskin and the vagina, reducing friction and eliminating the need for artificial lubricants.

Reasons not to circumcise:

Circumcision has no beneficial medical effects (http://www.circinfo.org/AAP_in_retreat.html)

There is a notable decrease in sexual pleasure among circumcised men (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17155977)

Circumcision decreases efficiency of nerve response in the glans (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17378847)

Circumcision is linked to pain, trauma, and sequelae (http://www.cirp.org/library/psych/boyle6/ , https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9057731 , http://www.cirp.org/library/psych/goldman1/ , http://www.cnn.com/HEALTH/9712/23/circumcision.anesthetic/)

Large damage is dealt to erogenous tissue by circumcision (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8800902 , http://www.nocirc.org/symposia/second/taylor.html)

Circumcised penises requires more care in first 3 years of life (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23374102?dopt=Abstract)

Circumcision leads to abnormal brain development and psychological issues (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10657682 , http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1046/j.1464-410x.1999.0830s1093.x/abstract;jsessionid=D435164CDFE936C050A047F39518A9ED.f03t02 )

Circumcision decreases penile sensitivity (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23374102?dopt=Abstract)

Circumcision is associated with sexual difficulties (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21672947)

Circumcision causes difficulty gaining sexual pleasure (http://www.businessinsider.com/does-circumcision-cause-orgasm-problems-for-men-and-women-2011-11)

Compilation of notable complications from circumcision (http://www.cirp.org/library/complications/williams-kapila/)

Poorly educated doctors do not know how to clean a foreskin (https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/moral-landscapes/201110/what-is-the-greatest-danger-uncircumcised-boy , https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/moral-landscapes/201110/doctor-ignorance-male-anatomy-harms-boys)

For most boys, there is no hygiene benefit from circumcision (http://www.cirp.org/library/general/wallerstein/)

The only benefits occur in arid areas with poor hygiene (http://jme.bmj.com/content/30/3/238.short)

The HIV/AIDS risk decrease from circumcision claim is inflated (http://jme.bmj.com/content/36/12/798)

There is no case for widespread implementation of circumcision to stop HIV/AIDS (https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/moral-landscapes/201109/more-circumcision-myths-you-may-believe-hygiene-and-stds)

Circumcision does not decrease the incidence of STDs (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9091693)

Parents choose circumcision for psychosocial factors instead of health ones (http://www.circumcision.org/policy.htm)

Although circumcision does reduce the risk of a UTI, these infections only affect 1% of boys. (http://adc.bmj.com/content/90/8/853.full) Circumcision as a preventative measure for a condition that rare is laughable.

Circumcision also reduces the risk of penile cancer, but again, penile cancer is so rare that only about 1 in 900 men will develop it anyways. (https://www.cancer.org/cancer/penile-cancer/causes-risks-prevention/prevention.html)

Medical institutions against circumcision:

Swedish Pediatric Society (they outright call for a ban) (http://www.upi.com/Top_News/World-News/2012/02/19/Swedish-doctors-urge-ban-on-circumcision/UPI-61961329678560/)

Royal Dutch Medical Association calls it a violation of human rights, and calls for a “strong policy of deterrence.” (https://www.knmg.nl/web/file?uuid=579e836d-ea83-410f-9889-feb7eda87cd5&owner=a8a9ce0e-f42b-47a5-960e-be08025b7b04&contentid=77976)

College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia: “This procedure should be delayed to a later date when the child can make his own informed decision. Parental preference alone does not justify a non‐therapeutic procedure… Current evidence indicates that previously‐thought prophylactic public health benefits do not out‐weigh the potential risks… Routine infant male circumcision does cause pain and permanent loss of healthy tissue.” (https://www.cpsbc.ca/files/u6/Circumcision-Infant-Male.pdf)

The German Association of Pediatricians called for a ban. (http://msnbcvvd.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/10/10/14347482-german-cabinet-approves-controversial-circumcision-bill)

The German Association of Child and Youth Doctors attacked the AAP’s claims, saying the benefits they claim, including HIV reduction, are “questionable,” and that “Seen from the outside, cultural bias reflecting the normality of non-therapeutic male circumcision in the US seems obvious, and the report’s conclusions are different from those reached by doctors in other parts of the Western world, including Europe, Canada, and Australia.” (scroll to page 7 for the English translation.) (https://www.kinderaerzte-im-netz.de/startseite/)

The AAP was recently attacked by the President of the British Association of Paediatric Urologists because the evidence of benefit is weak, and they are promoting “Irreversible mutilating surgery.” (http://www.nature.com/news/doctors-back-circumcision-1.11296 is the article supporting the practice)

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan has taken a position against it, saying it is harmful and will likely be considered illegal in the future, given the number of men who are angry that it was done to them. (http://www.cmaj.ca/content/167/5/532.2.full)

The Central Union for Child Welfare “considers that circumcision of boys that violates the personal integrity of the boys is not acceptable unless it is done for medical reasons to treat an illness. The basis for the measures of a society must be an unconditional respect for the bodily integrity of an under-aged person… Circumcision can only be allowed to independent major persons, both women and men, after it has been ascertained that the person in question wants it of his or her own free will and he or she has not been subjected to pressure.” (http://www.childcentre.info/10595/)

The Royal College of Surgeons of England: “The one absolute indication for circumcision is scarring of the opening of the foreskin making it non- retractable (pathological phimosis). This is unusual before five years of age.”……..“The parents and, when competent, the child, must be made fully aware of the implications of this operation as it is a non-reversible procedure.”
The British Medical Association: it is now widely accepted, including by the BMA, that this surgical procedure has medical and psychological risks… The BMA considers that the evidence concerning health benefit from non-therapeutic circumcision is insufficient for this alone to be a justification for doing it. (https://www.rcseng.ac.uk/error/not-found/?item=%2fpublications%2fdocs%2fmale_circumcision%2f&user=rcseng%5cAnonymous&site=website)

The Australian Medical Association has a policy of discouraging it, and says “The Australian College of Paediatrics should continue to discourage the practice of circumcision in newborns.” (http://www.cirp.org/library/statements/ama2/)

The Australian College of Paediatrics: “The possibility that routine circumcision may contravene human rights has been raised because circumcision is performed on a minor and is without proven medical benefit…. Neonatal male circumcision has no medical indication. (http://www.cirp.org/library/statements/acp1996/)

The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons: “Despite uncircumcised men reporting greater sexual satisfaction, which was statistically significant, Kigozi et al (2008) concluded that adult male circumcision does not adversely affect sexual satisfaction or clinically significant function in men.” (http://www.surgeons.org/media/292210/Male_non-therapeutic_circumcision.pdf)

The Norwegian Council of Medical Ethics states that ritual circumcision of boys is not consistent with important principles of medical ethics, that it is without medical value, and should not be paid for with public funds. (http://www.cirp.org/library/ethics/gulbrandsen1/)

The Norwegian Children’s Ombudsman is opposed as well. (http://www.crin.org/en/library/news-archive/norway-ombudsman-proposes-setting-minimum-age-male-circumcision)

The Denmark National Council for Children is also opposed. (https://www.crin.org/en/library/news-archive/denmark-plan-ban-all-circumcision)

And recently, the politically appointed Health minister of Norway opposed a ban on circumcision, yet the ban was supported by the Norwegian Medical Association, the Norwegian Nurses Organization, the Norwegian Ombudsman for Children, and the University of Oslo. (https://www.thelocal.no/20120703/minister-says-no-to-circumcision-ban-)

An oldie but goodie.

The wendigo is a demonic spirit rooted in Algonquin-based Native American folklore. In some scary stories, this supernatural creature can curse and possess humans, causing them to suffer from cannibalistic urges that can never be sated. It’s believed many different individuals can be infected by this single ancient evil, serving as multiple extensions of it. These tales are believed to be the world's first zombie stories.

The myth originated as a way to prevent those facing starvation in times of famine from resorting to cannibalism for survival. The Wendigo mythology later morphed into a way to encourage moderation and cooperation within tribes. Anyone guilty of greed or jealousy, or anyone who had ever tasted human flesh, was considered tainted and prey for the beast. Tribes began to appoint Wendigo-slayers-for-hire, and those who were believed to be transforming into a Wendigo would be put to death. 

The earliest version of the Wendigo legend came from Algonquin-based Native American tribes and describes it as an evil spirit or demonic entity that was able to possess humans and in some cases, even transform into human beings themselves. Those who had previously been driven to commit cannibalism as a desperate act of self-preservation during a harsh winter could be affected by the evil entity, as could anyone with harboring feelings of greed. This malevolent spirit is driven by its insatiable hunger for human flesh, so any human possessed by it would slip into a savage state like some mindless, flesh-craving zombie.

While earlier Native American cultures spoke of the Wendigo as a spirit, eventually it took on the shape of a physical beast. This beast could also infect a person if that person was tainted by greed or had committed the sin of consuming human flesh. Like the spirit, the creature was able to poison the minds of humans, turning them into a Wendigo and forcing them to constantly crave the meat of other humans.

The emaciated creature - topped with a stag skull head, sunken eyes, and skin stretched impossibly tight over its bones - is known to give off the stench of death and corruption. This shambling skeletal beast is similar to a zombie not just in its seemingly mindless hunger, but also in its form. It’s strikingly tall yet seems fragile and haggard, falling apart from decomposition as it moves.

Whether in the form of a beast or a spiritual entity, the Wendigo possesses supernatural abilities that make it impossible to escape. Despite its gaunt figure, it is unnaturally large, fast, and strong, with heightened senses and endurance. The Wendigo is a hunter, immune to even the harshest climates. It stalks its prey and can mimic human voices, so its favorite pastime is luring people away from safety and driving them mad deep in the wilderness in order to consume or possess them.


According to Algonquian myth, once a Wendigo eats another person, it grows directly in proportion to the person it just consumed, making it impossible for it to ever be full. It is the embodiment of gluttony, constantly consuming yet never satisfied, always on the brink of starvation.


According to the lore, the longer a Wendigo walks the earth, the stronger its powers become. The savage creature can eventually gain the ability to control the weather and to call upon darkness before sunset. The Wendigo also gains the ability to manipulate other creatures of the forest: it can summon predators and force them to attack on command. Its speed and strength also grow with age, as does its ability to heal. 

The people of the Assiniboine, Ojibwe, and the Cree tribes took the Wendigo taboo so seriously that during times of famine, a ceremonial dance would be performed. The purpose was to reinforce the threat of the evil creature in the minds of the people during harsh winters. It also encouraged cooperation and moderation during trying times. These ceremonies were performed in northern Minnesota at Lake Windigo.

Bill doesn't know how to handle an aggressive Dipper. Not super happy with this picture, but meh. Bipper turned out okay, but Dipper can get fucked.

The Beast of Yucca Flats would stop at nothing.... And stayed there.

Since apparently the right-wingers on this hellsite have either forgotten that right-wing terrorism is a thing that still occurs to this day, or they willfully choose to ignore that fact, I chose to provide a little reference sheet so-to-speak. You know, of right-wing terrorism, of right-wing suppression of free speech, of vapid, inane, and violent bullshit spouted as they try to say “The Left is crazy” with shit like this:

1. Islamic terrorism is right-wing Conservative Terrorism

1. Islamic terrorism is right-wing Conservative Terrorism

This really, really isn’t up for debate. Any actual look at what Islamic terrorism is and pushes for will throw this in your face.

It is a terrorist movement to instill traditional, religious values in a society. it seeks the enforcement of a millenia-old book of morals not because they independently agree with those morals and found something that parrots them (like liberals who find a secular rationale to agree with Jesus), but rather “Because Allah said so.”

All of the Islamic terrorism in the world, ISIL and Al-Qaeda and San Bernadino belong squarely on the right side of the political spectrum. This is basic political analysis, based largely on strict adherence to political texts and a denial of religious pluralism.

Since I have no doubt somebody is going to shout obscenities at me for “lying about leftist Islam”, here are 3 separate sources on the matter (https://www.thenation.com/article/islamic-terrorism-is-right-wing-terrorism/ , https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=FOcmCwAAQBAJ&rdid=book-FOcmCwAAQBAJ&rdot=1&source=gbs_vpt_read&pcampaignid=books_booksearch_viewport , https://www.routledge.com/Counter-Terrorism-and-State-Political-Violence-The-War-on-Terror-as/Poynting-Whyte/p/book/9780415607209 ) on the politics of Islam.

(Oh look, here come the Genetic Fallacy believers!) But let’s entirely rule out a large portion of right-wing violence going forward.

2. Right-Wing Institutions and Colleges deny Left-Wing Speakers just as frequently as Left-Wing institutions deny Right-Wingers.

The simplest way to measure this? Disinvitation from events and discussions, line panels or commencements or talks. These are all instances where a person was sought out to come to an event, invited, and then someone along the line took issue with them as people and their political stances. Them taking issue with these stances then ends the invitation process, and the speaker ultimately gets no-platformed for their political opinion.

Right now, the best people at tracking these (and similar issues on campus) would be F.I.R.E., the Foundation for individual Rights in Education. Browse through their articles and you’ll find them fantastic. They’re non-biased and come out strongly against all attempts at censorship in colleges across America, including Berkeley and Harvard both.

They’ve got a full database of all reported disinvitations from colleges across the country. It lists reported controversial speakers, the college where the controversy occurred, and whether or not the disinvitation attempt was successful. You’ll find that liberal colleges attempt to disinvite speakers slightly more often, and that conservative colleges are a bit more succesful when they try to disinvite someone.

You know that Milo gets disinvited from colleges and protested, but so does Ana Kasparian fromt TYT. 

So, which is worse, being slightly more likely to try to disinvite someone, or having more power to actually disinvite someone? Because they’re both making roughly the same amount of attempts. Here's the resource on that ( https://www.thefire.org/resources/disinvitation-database/#home/ )

3. Right-Wingers and Conservatives use violence over words plenty in domestic policies they dislike. And it’s only getting more common.

Let’s ignore the right-wing Islamic violence for now and just focus on domestic policies.

Let’s get the elephant out of the room and just state, for the record, the incredible amount of violence associated with the anti-abortion arm of the Right. This is where I could post a shitload of pictures of burnt-out buildings, exploded cars, dead bodies, but i’ll sum it up in one benign picture from an anti-abortion protest.

In terms of actual statistics, though, here’s the deal. In 2015 alone there were 3 murders, 9 attempted murders, and 94 death threats significant enough that police got involved and protected people, all tied to anti-abortion movements.(http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/abortion-clinics-report-threats-violence-rise-n719426)

This has been a decades-old problem. And I immediately know that people are going to say “oh, it’s going down! From 7 down to 3″ except it’s actually going up again (re: previous citations). 

Right-wing domestic terrorism as a whole is going up ( https://www.ctc.usma.edu/v2/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/ChallengersFromtheSidelines.pdf ) . It’s so significant that hundreds and hundreds police departments and law enforcement agencies label it as the #1 perpetrators of political violence ( https://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/16/opinion/the-other-terror-threat.html ) . The various right-wing extremist groups have even infiltrated local law enforcement agencies to the extent that the FBI has, for years, been treating them as potential adversaries ( https://theintercept.com/2017/01/31/the-fbi-has-quietly-investigated-white-supremacist-infiltration-of-law-enforcement/ ) . This isn’t something you can put as some “Obama hates cops” bullshit. This started under G.W. Bush in 2006. 

Bet you missed it, but right-wing terrorist Glendon Scott Crawford was arrested for trying to make a dirty bomb to kill muslims and liberals ( http://www.denverpost.com/2016/12/20/new-york-man-to-be-sentenced-in-x-ray-weapon-plot/ ) . 

A 52-year-old industrial mechanic who was the first person in the U.S. convicted of trying to produce a weapon of mass destruction under a 2004 law intended to stop terrorists from using radiation-dispersing “dirty bombs” was sentenced Monday to 30 years in prison followed by a lifetime of supervised release. Glendon Scott Crawford, of Galway in upstate New York, planned to kill Muslims because of their religion as well as other people whose political and social beliefs he disagreed with, U.S. Attorney Richard Hartunian said.

This was TWO MONTHS AGO

3.5 While republican administrations and governments entirely ignore right-wing extremist violence

Meanwhile, republican President Trump is re-purposing the department that actually would investigate and combat domestic right-wing terrorism into something explicitly focused only on radical Islamic violence ( http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/317465-trump-plans-to-reshape-counter-extremism-program-to-focus-on-islam ) . This is similar to Bush 43, who shrank the entire department in charge of investigating right-wing terrorism to one guy. This was even in the face of the fact that terrorism threats from foreign states was declining. ( http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/31/politics/homeland-report-says-threat-from-terrorlist-nations-is-declining.html )

4. Fear Mongering about Nazis, and all of its inglory.

I mean, are people seriously trying to say “Leftists try to stir up fear and over-reaction over everything!” as if it’s something new, something unseen before? Even off the top of my fucking head this is laughable.

1.Leftists are coming to take your guns!! ( http://louderwithcrowder.com/leftists-want-our-guns/ )

a. Obama signed federal bills expanding gun rights onto trains and national parks ( http://www.nbcnews.com/id/35484383/ns/us_news-life/t/new-law-allows-loaded-guns-national-parks/#.WKRn3NIrKUm ). In terms of control, what he did was enforce the laws ALREADY ON THE BOOKS ( http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/obameter/promise/1117/better-enforce-gun-laws/ ) . This is the same shit republicans and conservatives say should be done instead of implementing new rules.

b.The NRA has literally called federal agents Nazi thugs in the past for enforcing existing gun control laws. ( http://mediamatters.org/research/2013/06/11/how-the-nra-hinders-the-atf-director-confirmati/194412 )


2. FEMA Concentration Camps are coming! (http://www.infowars.com/public-freaks-out-over-fema-camp-document/ )

3. Democrats are going to kill your grandparents! (http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2009/aug/10/sarah-palin/sarah-palin-barack-obama-death-panel/ )

a. Which is coming back around now that Trump is president. ( http://money.cnn.com/2017/02/14/news/economy/obamacare-death-panels/ )

4. McCarthy. No source needed.

5. Sharia Law is taking over the country! ( http://www.teaparty.org/fax-blast-congress-stop-sharia-law-taking-america/ )

a. Here’s a two-fer. Obama is a secret kenyan muslim, (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/sheriff-joe-arpaio-dives-back-into-president-barack-obama-birtherism/ )

b. Donald Trump lied and misled people about Obama being foreign-born for political points. ( https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/03/us/politics/donald-trump-birther-obama.html )
I mean…give me a break. Are you serious?

I don’t need to go in-depth about crazy, radical-leftists. There are plenty of people who are more than eagerly doing so. But you can stop being personally affronted and amazed that anyone could be radical and violent, and how “those leftists are dangerous to society.”


Fuck your confirmation bias.

Whether it is true, or whether it is false, cannot be verified or disproven. But whether it is true, or whether it is a hoax, it is an isolated anecdote that affects only its immediate situation and has no larger significance that impacts any broader issues.
