I have traced the whereabouts of sex trolls, on other sites, and at least a third were women. :mrgreen:

I am usually paleoconservative, in terms of gender roles, but have never made it an issue, in my public life, assuming that she was competent and polite.


I'm not talking about you. 8O

But, I am usually considered the misogynist. :mrgreen:

Listen. You sjw's have subjected normal people to a form of exposure therapy, and noone is afraid of that word, anymore.

Misogynist. No lightning struck. Misogynist. The ground did not open up. Misogynist. I have taken it in vain.

You have a very high opinion of yourself, don't you? :roll:

Please don't turn this topic into a political falmewar/insult contest.

Personal attacks are not allowed and generic insults at "the other side" are offtopic.

That's basically this entire forum, though.

That's part of why I've been trying for quite a while, in WP.net discussion, to get Alex to look into splitting this into Politics, Philosophy, and Religion separate.

And yet, that is not what it is supposed to be or what is technically permitted. Imagine what it might be if people stayed on topic and avoided personal attacks or group insults.

It would be very quiet around here.

Should I just report everyone who does that? Because it'll keep you guys preeeetty busy!

Can't we all just focus on arguing the point rather than attacking the arguer?

I would hope that Stockholm has learnt its lesson.

Next time, plow the main boulevards and streets in the center of town first.

I'm trying to establish if there is a point, or if this is all made up.

Going off topic is what happens on most WP threads and in ASD support groups I attended. It is not a PPR thing but a Autism or executive functioning thing.

This was about the fact that Stockholm, Sweden, got 11 inches of snow. Then there was an attempt to plow (plough) the snow in an innovative manner, perhaps in some Feminist fashion. It didn't work, obviously, since it shut down the city.

The point was, perhaps, that political correctness could be taken too far.

This is more of a housewiviminist policy than anything else.

Except that nobody has posted a credible source indicating this actually happened.
