A view into the stupidity of the "Progressive" left

Social Justice Stupidity: Part One


Well this week takes the cake for stupidity of Social Justice. Whether it’s shaming white disabled people to claiming Jesus was a tranny, these morons never cease to amaze.

L.A. FACE WITH AN OAKLAND BOOTY

Earlier this week, actress Blake Lively posted a “controversial” Instagram photo. Lively, in the middle of her second pregnancy, decided to show off her brand new “assets”. With one photo showing her face and another showing off her big ol’ pregnancy ass, she captioned the photos “L.A. face with an Oakland booty.” The line comes from the song "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot.
Naturally, everyone (read: a small group of easily offended SJWs) decided to take umbrage with this. Their reasoning: Lively was “culturally appropriating” the traditionally big booties of WOC (women of color). I hate the idea of "body positive", but these people are trying to shame a pregnant woman trying to be body positive (ugh) and act like she is the bad guy.

BEHOLD THE OUTRAGE!

Another day, another rich white woman using WOC's bodies as a punchline and commodity. As if Blake Lively wasn't the worst already.

Blake Lively, never not suffering from a massive case of pretty girl privilege

Of course, she has many defenders. Her biggest defender: Sir Mix-A-Lot. In an interview, Mix-A-Lot embraced her body positivity (seriously, I need to stop), saying “All I would say to the critics is let’s better understand the context of what she said. If what she’s saying is ‘I have this butt that Mix-a-Lot was talking about in “Baby Got Back,”‘ that’s a good thing. She’s saying I’ve embraced this ideal of beautiful."



AVGN IS SEXIST


James Rolfe, the Youtuber known as the Angry Video Game Nerd, reviews old monster movies, video games, board games, etc. When it comes to the new Ghostbusters movie, he is not a big fan. In fact, he's so mad at it, he's not going to see it.

In a six minute video, Rolfe calmly explains why he will not see the movie. Despite the charges of the films haters being "women haters" and "misogynistic", Rolfe's reasons have nothing to do with women. The only time he mentions women is to talk about how some people refer to the new movie as "The female Ghostbusters".

And yet, somehow, people managed to cry "Misogyny".


Behold the douchebaggery:

I really wanted to hate this Cinemassacre GHOSTBUSTERS review but I'm such a fan of noisy, thick-saliva swallowing it won my heart.

This moron at cinemassacre James Rolfe apparently hates that Ghostbusters is being updated with… https://t.co/hzvEWitL6v

i might see ghostbusters like three or four times just to drink all the male tears when it's a success

Not To Mention Articles Slamming Him.

So I guess a well reasoned, calmly stated argument is sexist/misogynistic. Way to water down the words, you "progressive" shit heads.


#DisabilitySoWhite

Speaking of Twitter outrage, a new hashtag, #DisabilitySoWhite, has come forward to fight a new evil: disabled white people.

That's right, white people with disabilities: You need to check your privilege.

The hashtag was created to point out how disabled POC (people of color) have it worse than disabled white people.

For example:

#disabilitysowhite when I told my mom that I was working with an Indian man with Down syndrome she said "I didn't know that was possible"

#disabilitysowhite when i have to choose a candidate but the one who has shown interest in PWD is bad for POC
— Four Wheels ♿️ (@4WheelWorkOut) May">https://twitter.com/4WheelWorkOut/status/733305825... 19, 2016

We have studies showing that medics & care professionals think POC feel less pain than white ppl https://t.co/22bKycjyQC #disabilitysowhite

While seemingly noble, like many other SJW hashtags, it takes down one group to raise another. White disabled people did not choose to be disabled. But since they are white, it is okay to shit on them in order for them to "check their privilege."

I'll leave with this one "progressive" tweet.

White disabled people, stop playing victim tonight - no white tears are wanted for #DisabilityTooWhite. The trolling & whining is to stop.

JESUS: THE FIRST TRANSGENDER MAN

Here's the article.


Well, that was last week. Let's see what these dummies do this week.

A Few Thoughts Every College Freshman Has

The transition into adulthood is never easy

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
