Atheism+ RIP

Post by mistermack » Sat Jul 25, 2015 12:02 pm

Just had a look, to see if there was any new crazy stuff.

The last new post was just over one week ago. A whole week with no posts. Maybe everyone is now banned?

That's a bit sexist, isn't it?

Every woman has the same right as a man to be a rapist.

I'm still active, I just checked. I've never posted, but I'm considering a troll run.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

What is/was Atheism Plus? Another atheists forum, I gather, but what was its deal?
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

They were a hilarious thing created by Skepchicks and Freethoughtbloggers, led by joke-and-a-half Richard "I'll be your Intellectual Artillery" Carrier and PZ "Michael Shermer is a rapist" Myers.

They were set up to drive out the "old white men" from the atheist movement, and more specifically anyone who wasn't a social justice warrior. They were "Atheism Plus [insert list of social justice warrior causes]."

Their goal was to set up a "safe space" where all the "triggered" people could go to cry about how oppressed they were, and then band together to dox and online harass anyone they set their sights on that was expressing a verboten opinion.

Not probably, absolutely. Don't forget we in Africa are so poor that the whole village has only one pair.

Well, at least they aren't hypocritical, which is something admirable. If only the greenies were as ethically consistent they'd go out and slit their bellies in their front yards to pay for their desecration of the planet.

You wouldn't last two posts. There is just one thing that the mods there are good at, and that's banning people.
If you tried to troll, they would be on it in a flash. But they would probably ban you anyway, even if you didn't troll. Reverse sexist racism or something similar. Which is what they call people writing words.
