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.

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.

Here's the article.


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

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
