MP, the man had a valid point...

Sheesh. 8 minutes to disappear a thread?

"Masculinity" is not a malaise. Pointing out a badly worded sign, with good humor? I have no objection whatever to the event advertised. Someone just messed up, and got a pretty gentle reproach.

I suppose it's my turn to get flagged?

I always wonder what happened to those threads with no title and -1 comments.

Aleks Zebastion?? I suppose... 

Was this about a handwritten sign at Movement regarding how to address toxic mascules?

Stitch I think it was about the lack of an actual meeting to attend no matter how much grief Richard took from that one commenter. 

I saw the Facebook thread I think is involved. It was almost like MP transmuted over there.
I appreciate the pushback to NPC speak, but am wondering if Douchebaggery is indeed as rampant as some insisted, because that kind of bullshit would need to be extinguished. 

Damnit! Link to Fbook?!?! Duh.

Nah, we have more than enough people with the physical toughness needed to be a drone pilot.

I prefer micro-aggressive climbing shoes.

"There are certain well-defined and narrowly limited classes of speech,  the prevention and punishment of which have never been thought to raise any constitutional problem. These include the lewd and obscene, the profane, the libelous, and the insulting or "fighting" words those which by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace. It has been well observed that such utterances are no essential part of any exposition of ideas, and are of such slight social value as a step to truth that any benefit that may be derived from them is clearly outweighed by the social interest in order and morality." - Supreme Court Justice Frank Murphy, 1942.

I can't believe, given that the average person during World War II would have felt injured by the mere utterance of the words "damned racketeer" and "damned fascist," that we are not all speaking German right now.
