Title: Just got kicked of DU
Post by: unbiased on April 03, 2010, 04:09:31 PM
I have been a member of DU for months.  Mostly just reading and finding out how they think.  Hey, I've read the Art of War.  Anyway, I recently had to jump in on a thread about jobs.  I posted that women can do as good or better of a job as men in desk jobs (accounting, data processing, secretary, office manager)  and jobs like doctors, nurses, teachers, physical therapists....  My only contention was with a poster who said that they could do any heavy lifting type job as good.

I pointed out that while there are a few who probably can and do, the majority of hod carriers, roofers, movers, farm hands and the like are men.  I was ridiculed and told I live in a fantasy world.  When I asked them to google the stats on who does these types of jobs, I was told I was a woman hater.  I was even told by one person that NOBODY has to lift anything heavy anymore because machines do it.  When I pointed out that I've never had a machine move my furniture or change a tractor tire and that a bundle of shingles aren't dropped on a roof from a helicopter, I again was told I was a hater.

The final straw that got me banned was when a poster asked me why was it that the only jobs I listed that women were good at were menial, low paying jobs.  I asked her to read my posts and then tell me who makes more money.  Is it doctors, nurses, accountants and physical therapists or hod carriers, farm hands and roofers.  I was informed I lost my posting privileges after that one.

Is any of this offending to anyone?

Well, I can very well see where it offended the primitives.

Remember, common sense is offensive to the primitives.

You'd be more likely to survive a trip through hell in an open gasoline tanker than to survive dripping a drop of truth in the DUmp.

To borrow a quote from Chris Rock in a  way.

"The truth is like Kryptonite to a DUmmie"

Link to thread?

It is in breaking news on their discussion forums.  But it won't even show up on my computer anymore.  That is what clued me in that I might be banned and then I tried to reply to another thread and was informed I lost my privileges.

I think it was labeled something like "Abortion passes round one" or something like that.  See if you can find it.  My name was hawkeye14, I wonder if everything I typed was deleted.

You may have been talking to people with little or no real work experience.

I believe this (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4327049) is the thread, and yes, all of your posts were deleted.

I generally start out being kind.  It can go either way from there.   :-)

I've been thrown off before also, so I just stay in safe subjects to talk about, and just throw a thought  out once in awhile.  Someone has noticed and is ignoring me  :p

I wonder just how many of us conservatives are really posting over there... :tongue:

You are now the largest, most prolific poster on DU

With the DUmmies, that is an incredibly large understatement.

If you were a member of the DUmp for months, and that was your only point of contention, then maybe you don't belong here, either.

That is the thread and this is the response that got me to reply.  Apparently men want to end abortion because we want to keep women out of the workforce.

11. AND anything else that she might have had to contribute to "Us" is worthless, only slaves, uh babies
 are of any use to U.S.

It really is possible that this stuff is fueled by one of the oldest fears there is: Fear of Competition for the resources that come from Jobs. Men fear the work that women can/will do will far outclass theirs.

The only patrice I ever knew was well within the parameters of your remark.  Put another way "more dense than a black hole".  Had cankles too.

I'm still going with none of the "women could do it better" group have ever worked ag, construction, or oil fields, just to name a few.

We try to keep up with the big boys, or even lift too much, and our "stuff" falls out.   :o

The only one of whom I have ever heard was Patrice Lumumba, of course he would have fitted right in at the DUmp, as long as he didn't open his mouth about women or gays.  Despite being a dedicated Commie, he was after all a mid-20th Century guy from central Africa, and would no doubt have said something that would set off the lot of them sooner or later if he opened his yap.

As much as it shames me I can attest to that.

Eh, I was banned from there too, which is probably for the best...I was becoming completely incapable of hiding my real beliefs.

Oh well, I just enjoy the stupidity from a distance now.
