    Chu, you have grown into a better person since when I started posting [chat]. Which was what? 2008-2009? I started on the late shift from Japan though then swapped to normal human time later.

    Also that first page is one of the least horrible Ron Paul first pages we have had, grats Chu.

    No, making fun of someone's mum for having cancer is sorta off limits, why did this need to be pointed out to you.

    Seriously.

    Or they had a good point that didn't put feminism in only the best possible light.

    She was very biased, and very abrasive. I don't miss her.

    I understand her frustration - Feminism is often co-opted by very non-feminist people. Just a matter of how she responded to it.

    A "news" article asks whether Obama can be re-elected.

    Setting aside your opinions of his policies and achievements and stuff, doesn't framing the question that way help frame the narrative and thus make it harder for him to be re-elected?
    Get off Fox's website

    Sky News, actually. They're both owned by Rupert Murdoch though so your point is still valid.

    I can't help it. I use Yahoo for my email, and Yahoo's "news" source has a habit of taking from Sky or the Daily Mail.

    No, I try to be very nice to everyone and I try really hard to let people know I'm joking with them if I tease them.

    If I'm mean, you'll know, and only then would I say I was terrible.

    i was a lot less horrible of a ron paul fan than many

    even at the height of my libertarianism i was never really fuck the [disadvantaged class]

    i just was playing mental calculus and intellectual dodge ball to avoid taking my beliefs to their conclusion and confronting what i was empowering

    Because you'll look back at hug-o-phobia like chu looks back at the Ron Paul thing, naturally.

    I think I have probably gotten less abrasive due to my time here. Defiantly gotten better about some things like noticing how horrible certain commercials and such are towards women and basic sexism. Still a bit more radical with my politics at times than some folks around here. Though [chat] killed the small remaining bit of me that was really a weeaboo. But living in Japan did most of that work.

    Also have become a lot more knowledgeable about comics but not sure that is a good thing.

    Over the years, I've gotten a lot more partisan. I once dated a Republican staffer. I cannot even imagine contemplating that now. It's a strain just to keep my conservative friends these days.

    Although, I think that's just as much a part of Rs going hard hard right as me going harder left.

    Feminism is only about equality. It's a bit of a misnomer, but by definition, feminism is strongly against misandry as well.

    Depends on the kind of feminism we're talking about.

    That's like asking what left wing politics is.

    There's a fair number of branches.
