Thread to discuss sexism and misogyny you encounter on DU.


 
This discussion thread is pinned.
I think it's important that we have a safe place to discuss examples of sexism and misogyny we encounter on DU.

To support one another, gain strength from one another and learn from one another.

It will also help to keep it all in one space.

Please use good judgment when posting. We have some fans who like to troll the group and make alerts to get posts hidden.

Be respectful, and factual. Focus on the example of sexism and misogyny, not the poster.

I'll be creating and pinning a new thread and lock the old when it's needed.

They're not happy unless they're whining, are they?

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

That sounds like a "call-out" thread and is against the DU rulez, I believe. They should have a thread like that , they should be alerting on the offending posts.   :panic:

If there were no sexism and misogyny encountered on DU the DUmmies would need to invent it in order to keep their world view intact.

Luckily, for whoever started this thread, DUmmies are the most racist, sexist, misogynistic, misantropic, homophobic, phobophobic on the entire planet

NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

I just don't understand how such a heavily trafficked "progressive" message board could have those types of problems...   :???:
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

4. OK,

I'll share ...

Back when Michelle Malkin was first hitting the scene (with her bizarre anti-Democrat 'cheer'), someone here posted that he'd "do her, if she kept her mouth shut."

Now that unemployed Atman McGrath has come crawling back to the DUmp, let's see if he has enough nerve to post on that lesbonazi thread.

Of course, as wimpy as he is, he may have signed himself up for "sensitivity training".
