Do SJWs suffer from mental illnesses?

Kellie Leitch's Pepper Spray Proposal Is 'Offensive' To Women: Patty Hajdu

People in the comments are literally saying shit like "you can take a judo class" as opposed to having pepper spray. I don't even..what?

They can legally mace bears though. So at least if a bear tries to rape you..you can try to fend it off.

😆

I seriously can't wait for the end of the World anymore!

If Women want to protect themselves they should just do what the SJW Leftist Feminazis do.... Go in to politics make millions off of corruption and then get highly paid government contractors to carry guns around them at all times. Its what the Hilldawg did.

I love this part:

“Does she think that if a woman is set upon by a violent predator she should just shout ‘federal gender-based violence strategy!’?” Leitch said. “I think that women should at least have a fighting chance with non-lethal tools to subdue and incapacitate an attacker.”

WTH is wrong with Hajdu??

Here is that legendary liberal tolerance at work:

College Student Driven Out Of School For Backing Trump

This one line perfectly describes liberals today:

"The peer mentor said Moritz had “personally attacked” other students by expressing support for Trump."

lol

I'm also shocked we aren't hearing many complaints about this from libs:

U.S. government begins asking foreign travelers about social media

I love how one student demonstrated his zero tolerance for fascists by behaving like an intolerant fascist.

Lol....Leftists is such Nazis.

Yep, that Harvard student wants academic freedom gone and replaced with academic justice.

There is also this:

Is there some sort of rule that says 3rd wave feminists have to be fat and/or ugly? It also seems to be getting to the point where it's sexist to even imply there are differences between males and females.

I don't think you'll ever get an argument from any rational person that Feminism is okay. As has been said over and over, Feminism doesn't want equality, it wants women to be elevated over men. We've seen that its policies not only have no basis in reality, but that they also cause nothing but negative outcomes. John Stossel did a report 10 years or so ago showing that things like income inequality generally have a basis in things like the hours and conditions men are willing to endure versus their female counterparts.

That said, when there is real gender inequality, it shouldn't be addressed by some massive swing in the other direction or though special treatment, it should be addressed by evening the playing field and creating actual equality.

As to SJWs having mental issues, I'd say the extremes on both sides clearly have something wrong in their minds. There's an inherent inability to relate to other people displayed by the boisterous outliers on both sides of the political spectrum. That in itself is yet another issue, that there's this idea holding that it's one extreme or the other. That a relatively intellectually and economically advanced society like Sweden focuses attention on baseless, polarized actions shows that there's a long way to go.

No one has replied to my thread about decision making behavior, but the videos posted here and most of the responses on this forum in general speak to the fact that we have a long way to go before evaluative logic is used in taking action rather than gut feelings and emotion.

It's hard for me to relate to people who believe in fairy tales like rape cultures, patriarchy's, and all that stuff.

But anyways, let me give you an example of why I can't take SJW's seriously. Trump triggers people by agreeing with Putin about democrats:

Trump 'Triggers' Social Media Over Democrat-Bashing Putin Tweet

Read some of the butthurt tweets from Liberals shown in that article. Do you notice something? Do you notice a lot of "omg Putin rigs all his elections" and "ha what hypocrisy, look at how Russia deals with politics!" and all that.

Remember that, and remember how liberals were shockingly silent about all the shady shit we've done when it comes to interfering with the politics and elections of other countries...when they were whining about Russian hacking.

People can say that some complain about the SJW's too much, but at the end of the day just how does one respond to such hilariously obvious hypocrisy? This happens all the time and this is why you see this passion against SJW's, it's always one set of rules for one people and a different set for everyone else. People are tired of it, this election showed that. I see youtubers who post about this stuff getting their accounts terminated, while their liberal counterparts usually don't deal with it as much. It's also those with liberal views who are the ones who turn off comments on their videos. Which some might excuse with "they want to avoid harassment" but they also turn off the thing that shows the amount of likes or dislikes a video has gotten. I wonder why?

There is no sign it will slow down either. Come on, there is a college right now with a "The Problem with Whiteness" course, run by a white dude with dreads. People would be burning down the city over a "The Problem with Blackness" course. Why is it they only expect consistency from conservatives?

I just need to post this again, because to me it just kind of mows down the argument both sides can be just as bad. Not that there can't be bad things on both sides, but one side takes the cake when they do stuff like this:

YouTube video

People said that a British guy in Britain opening a store called "Really British" was racist. They came in and taunted and harassed a female employee(who was Spanish)) to the point she quit after 1 day. Others said they felt the stores name was saying other places in Britain weren't really British, that is the crazy "homeless man on acid" logic we are seeing here. Others said it was a pro Brexit name. This is getting entirely out of control. These are the people who hide under the label of being "progressive". I can't even figure out how it could even be racism when..are British people considered a race now? Is that a thing?

People like me can huff and puff all day about these people, but we never end up doing shit like..trying to ruin the livelihoods of people, etc. Especially over silly and asinine reasons. The most that usually happens is you get made fun of in a youtube video.

I'm expecting massive boycotts in downtown Chicago today because we have a section called "China Town" that is downtown.

SJW's is such Nazis

They are always calling Trump Hitler so perhaps they are just behaving the way they do to be ironic?

Yeah..I think maybe that is how people in the future will rationalize this behavior.

Oh boy..

Wait, is the phrase "oh boy" sexist?!

I would just wonder how someone actually managed to explain what Irony is to a SJW.

I get that it's hard to remain objective and not call them down, just saying it's the way it needs to happen, because when you give in and go at them then both sides end up with a bunch of taunting behavior. Secondly, the issue is still that we have these lines that are drawn and most people choose them based on ideology and not hard facts. Most of the nut jobs on both sides swing the way they do because it feels good and being on that side 'justifies' their behavior towards the other.

You can't beat insanity with insanity. Prove your point with logic and data, and let those from any arena that want to argue against it fall apart with their ignorance. Things like the feminist snow plow solution play themselves out wonderfully and discredit those that attempt to put things like that in place. I'm not saying that you can't have a little fun with it. Even John Stossel is clearly a bit in disbelief at the claims about unequal pay and he lets it show when addressing it, but he backs up what he's saying with facts, as do his panelists.

Do SJWs have mental illness? Likely not, but they are maladjusted and unable to cope with reality. They try to make a claim for their dictates through shaming and exaggeration the same way that right-wing crazies try to do so through grandstanding and distortions. Neither side uses data as the main motivating factor for their decisions; it's still too much from the heart, the gut, or some 'moment of clarity', and that's not good for anyone.

Two sides and little objectivity are good for no one. I get where your frustrations come from, and it sucks that the backlash for those on one side of the aisle having carte blanche to do as they pleased with impunity for so long is that now the other can go just as far off the deep end now without consequence or culpability. The answer to that isn't just to swing things back the other way, it's to fix how those in power make decisions. Sex, race, disability, ethnic origin, religion, etc., don't need to be the sole basis for business, legal, or social policies, but when they are factors that need to be considered they shouldn't be ignored either, and data does a pretty good job of helping to understand where the left, right, middle, or some varying degree of each ground is the correct place to stand.

I won't deny though, the videos of foolishness from the extremes of both sides of the isle will remain pretty hilarious no doubt, but none of them are a good reflection of how we have made decisions in the past and as of now continue to.

The problem is that using logic and data has been proven not to always work. The snowplow stuff was hilarious, but unfortunately it was barely even talked about in this country.

I don't think we are at the levels of SJW's we are seeing in some parts of Europe, but what happened in Stockholm is an example of what kind of stuff this rhetoric can lead to.

I would think being unable to cope with reality would be some sort of mental illness. Since you mentioned the snow plowing, I just can't figure out how any rational human being could want bike paths plowed first. How does this even happen in a rational society? We laugh at it, but couldn't this have potentially had serious consequences? Police cars, ambulances, and fire trucks do not use bike paths.

I also disagree about the data stuff. Like I said, the people who make a career out of going against these people *do* bring data into it. Time and time again you can see this just get ignored.

The SJW's also tend to prevent faulty data in order to push an agenda. One example is the figure 1 in 5 women will be sexually assaulted. This wasn't just repeated by feminists, but by Obama himself. The problem is that once you delve into the thing they are talking about..the definition of "sexual assault" included things such as an unwanted kiss, bad pick up lines, and drunken sex..just to name a few. Keep in mind when I say drunken sex I do not mean where the girl is blacked out and the guy takes advantage. It was just..any sex where both people were drunk.

You're also less likely to be raped on a college campus than you are off of one, and yet the narrative seems to insist reality is the exact opposite.

I agree with most of what you are saying, but I also want to say the problem is that in today's society some of the issues that need to be discussed just are taboo to discuss. In addition to that it also legitimately almost feels like some form of McCarthyism is slowly creeping back into this country. This thing with Russia has shown me that much.

Like stuff like this is happening here:

YouTube video

After the video ends there was another incident where she demanded anyone who voted for Trump stand up so the class "knew who to protect themselves from".

Well for me, it's understood that properly analyzed data is the norm for any decision making. Bad data or data that's being skewed has no place in that, and again, it's usually people pushing agendas that use it, not those pushing facts. Those who present things that way, like the way the wage gap has been presented publicly lately, are using garbage science.

For instance on the rape stat, yeah, the real stat is that 1 in 5 women will be the victim of an attempted or completed or sexual assault, but that included any unwarranted physical advances, with the exclusion of kissing, I believe. Attempted or completed rape is certainly not the only action being included in that, and as you and others point out, painting things that way is deceitful, and it's something that I'd be critical of any politician for. On the other side of it, things like senators you spout things like "legitimate rape" and how the body can't get pregnant if a woman is raped are just as ridiculous, maybe even more so since those kinds of statements aren't based on science in the least.

The difference is tons of people push the "rape culture" claims, while the guy who thinks women can just will away a pregnancy if it's rape..that isn't something a lot of people believe.

The president of the USA isn't going out there and saying "yeah, a woman can just wish away a pregnancy if raped" or anything. But he will repeat the false rape stats. Thing is, the Senator you talk about was also called out by the media for his silly claims. Nobody bothered to correct Obama's claims.

1 in 5 Surely unwanted advances are not as high as that? Wow, shocked, men are pigs.
