Is that comment supposed to be 3 levels of ironic?

Even /pol/ thinks Aurini is a fuckwit.

It has nothing to do with any sort of real intellectual honesty, it's just the mewling idiots automatically attacking anything that reminds them of the huge infight between Aurini and Owen and how the whole clusterfuck was partially their fault.

Mention how both these "documentaries" cost about 3 to 4 times the amount of money it takes to produce a handful of Feminist Frequency videos and yet it looks it was made by bored teenagers with Windows Movie Maker, and the forums will explode.

Most of the worst Reddit morons have long since fled to 4chan, and then they in turn fled to 8chan, because there are actual human beings out there who think 4chan is too progressive and tolerant.

GEE, ANITA, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TONIGHT?

Last tyear I made a personal pledge that any time I gave one of these MRA/PUA/MGTOW/Gamergate types a view I'd donate to a local women's shelter and so far I've kept it up.

Would you say this is entertaining enough to spend ?

That's actually a really good idea, and a good question.

In normal circumstances, I would say "definitely", and donate to the cause. But last Friday I received notification that I'm being laid off, and tomorrow is my last day. So I can't really say "yes" until I get another job.

So I guess I'll have to take the weasel way out and say "Not this time", although it was an awesome example of MRA-ness.

Is there really such a thing as "self-identified SJW's" though? I think the only people I've ever seen using the term are using it ironically, or as a way of mocking the idea. It mainly just exists as a way to insult people who care about disadvantaged groups.

I mean yeah, there are people are total prats about their social justice beliefs but I think they're a hell of a lot less numerous, and exponentially less powerful, than the SJW boogeyman people like Aurini spend their lives raging at.

I think one of the root causes of Men's Rights idiocy is that they invented a stereotype and then decided it was not just real, but all-powerful.

Hmm... supposed to be a reply to myself. Oh well. *Shakes fist at lack of preview functionality*

By the way... Davis Aurini really needs to learn the basics of sound normalization. About halfway through his narration suddenly got so load tht my ears bled a little. [Editor's note: This is an exageration. No actual blood was observed.]

Yes, there are definitely self-identified SJW's. I used to frequent a board with many self-identified SJWs, until they got a little too stupid & self-righteous for me to stomach.

I think "SJW" is probably what used to be called "having your heart in the right place." A person who hurts, or maybe just inconveniences, a cause they believe in by participating.

Very few words online have any connection to anything that happens in reality, so it could also just be another animal noise meaning "you make me feel bad but I can't kill you so I am helpless and it's your fault."

"SJW" is just one of those internet-borne red-flag words. It's like when you hear someone say "lamestream media" or "LIEberal" and know that you're having a conversation with a gigantic right-wing tool. They're useful, in their way.

Davis Aurini believes that SJW's are power brokers because he's powerless, or at least a whole lot less powerful than he'd like to be. If you're in this position, it's easier to believe that there's a cabal of people keeping you down rather than admitting you're not good at anything and not as smart as you think you are, which certainly describes Davis.

Also, his positions, in that they're not just psychological bids to keep from admitting that he yearns to suck cock in the local bus station bathroom, are so extreme that they're unpopular with sane conservatives, never mind lefties. No wonder the guy feels persecuted and alone.

"Gamma Level Productions" does seem to be a rather sad thing to call yourself if you believe alpha males exist. Even by Brave New World standards the fact he makes videos puts him above gamma into beta range... unless he has like FAS or something.

I think I may have my Greek letter caste systems mixed up. How does his work again?
