I suppose that makes sense, but I'd rather just call them SJWs instead of slap a label on them that doesn't fit very well. I disagree, transgender are viewed as having been that way since birth, so it is something that is immutable in their view.

I can't see the image.

One can dream... I am eternally hopeful. Everything planned for KOTOR 3 more or less ended up crammed into the SW:TOR storyline. From the fate of Revan and the Exile, the death (or not) of the true Sith Emperor and the fall of the Empire by the looks of the new expansion. Even Kreia gets a horribly miswritten and mutilated cameo. That particular ship sailed a long, long time ago. If I might be so bold, creating a SW:TOR account and dropping 5$ into the cash shop generates an account functional enough to play the game for the eight class stories and while they vary in quality somewhat there are much worse deals out there as long as one accepts that it is an MMORPG with all the downsides that comes with, like not having any quest variety outside of the class quests, a lot of "fetch me that" and "go kill these" filler and... maybe worst of all, other people. Some of the group content is also quite awesome. I did play it, I didn't like the gameplay and thought a lot of the content was boring.

I look at that and just get pissed off we didn't get KOTOR 3... Avellone as lead of KOTOR3 after leaving Obsidan? They're resurrecting Battlefront so I don't see why they wouldn't bring back another wildly popular franchise.

Well, there's a reason why Rand's Objectivism is sometimes nicknamed "the Marxism of the right" Though I think you're deflecting too much if you brush away the comparison between SJWism and Marxism on the grounds that "other ideologies assigns labels to groups too". They do, but they're different kinds of labels, not related to the Marxist "oppressed class" concept. While I don't like objectivism, I really don't think that one can accuse it of rejecting individual justice in favor of class justice like Marxists and SJWs do... Or put another way: Whatever labels objectivists assign (however childish or ungainly), are cosmetic and not foundational to their conception of justice. They may approve or disapprove of a group of people, but regardless of that consider justice something that needs to be administered equally to everyone regardless of group membership, based on individual actions. Whereas to the Marxist/SJW, class membership (in an "oppressed" or "oppressor" class) very much determines what kind of "justice" a person deserves, what rights they should be granted or denied, whether their personal success should be assisted or hindered (think quotas), etc. SJWism has little in common with Marxism other than assigning privileged groups in comparison to another. Which as Zor pointed out, is hardly unique to Marxism. To the Marxists, bourgeois are acting in self-interest and while inheritance of class is common, an individual isn't inherently proletarian or bourgeois and such status is mutable. The goal of Marxism is to abolish classes and remove labels like bourgeois and proletarian. There would be no separate standards of rights or justice based on class, because there wouldn't be differing classes to apply these standards to. To the SJWs, white, cis, male, whatever are acting to perpetuate a oppressive structure because reasons, and identity is immutable. The goal of SJWism, while not clearly defined, seems to be one of hyperidentification with a hierarchy of benefits being handed out based on lack of privilege. In essence this is the opposite of Marxism's goal in that they want to make the identities of race(or general or orientation or whatever) stronger and matter more, while Marxists want classlessness.

What about Elder Scrolls Adventure: Redguard? We're trying to forget about that.

It's not hyperbole at all. When social conservatives want violence, sexual content, or insults to Christianity removed or toned down because it insults their feelings, they are demanding a form of political correctness. There's a joke here about "ban bossy" I'm too charitable to make.

You may be right but without real purpose and meaningful strategy they will just be a vociferous and annoying movement that wont implement real change You can't stop PC guys, its best just to work within the system Yes you can, just like Communism eventually bent and traded ideology for the more practical aspects of capitalism and how Capitalism has become more socialized so too will the PC eventually be sanitized. The political correctness crowd want to have a monopoly on what correct means, eventually they will meet with the same thing that caused other systems to change: the public. You guys and your hyperbole....PC is not an ideology, no need to compare it to proper global beliefs like Communism It behaves like one and seems to take a lot cues from Marxism supplanting class with race; after all the people making this PC stuff up don't want people realizing that they privileged white kids. If we're talking about Marxism as in what Marx wrote, that isn't really the case. If it did, PC would be advocating an overthrow of the oppressors followed by dictatorship of the previously exploited which would lead to a raceless society. PC is more akin to Puritanical standards of social interaction, in that it's less about making radical changes to a system and more about presentation of ideas and standards of social interaction.

He is already getting that. Bernie will be portrayed as a kooky old man with ideas that aren't well thought out(ie outside of the "acceptable" range for mainstream US politics) and referred to as "not serious" every time is brought up. At debates, his answers will differ wildly from the canned responses by the rest of the field and he will drop some heavy truth bombs. Trump is more inline with your thinking than mine Bruce.

I think you've been playing too many erotic Fallout3/New Vegas/Skyrim mods.

85% Sanders, drop off 20% for Martin O'Malley for 2nd choice. Partywise: 92% Socialist, 90% Green, 65% Libertarian, 60% Democrat, 30% Constitution Party, 5% Republican.

Your legal system did not put the guy in prison and no apparent attempts were even made. Which is suggestive of the level of evidence. There was no such trial that's the point and despite that damage to a man not convicted of a crime was done. Hence his suit against the University, which if the evidence holds up, will basically result in him winning the lottery. Which does not negate the last year or so of him being unable to complete his degree due to being expelled for disciplinary reasons. Well again, life is not fair. It would certainly be worse if he was facing criminal prosecution. Even if the lawsuit does not pan out, he can likely still pursue his degree through a different school. Excusing an awful practice with "life's not fair" is...odd. As to being able to finish the degree if the lawsuit not panning out, that doesn't appear to be true. In the Boston Globe article posted earlier, it stated that he couldn't finish it due to having "expelled for disciplinary reasons" on his transcript.

Bruce, you're to the US as tankies are to the Soviet Union.

The idea the past 5 years of going to university, paid by working a full-time job I hate, can be rendered null because I cross paths with the wrong person while intoxicated bothers me quite a bit.

I can't say I'm surprised, you do seen to wallow in ignorancetrust in the glorious US government.

We could give him same helpful tips that we give women, don't drink too much, don't go in parties alone, don't dress up too sexy, don't be friends with members of opposite sex, don't be out in late, etc.. Solid. Gold. None. But you can keep in mind that while the plural of anecdote isn't "data", the singular sure as hell isn't either. So until reliable statistics turn up about the false conviction rates being higher than the number of actual rape cases (ie. "proof that the program causes more harm than good"), I remain sceptical of the idea that incidents such as this are a widespread menace. I'm not arguing that it is widespread, I'm wondering how I can prevent such a situation. Given that I am the same age as the accused, in college, and associate with women, a possibility exists that I may be in a similar situation and I would like to know what I can do to avoid it.

But in this case, the guy never dated his accuser. In fact, it seems that she initiated oral sex on him while he was blackout drunk. What preventive measures could he have taken to stop from having his girlfriend's roommate performing oral sex while he was passed out and accusing him of rape two years later? We could give him same helpful tips that we give women, don't drink too much, don't go in parties alone, don't dress up too sexy, don't be friends with members of opposite sex, don't be out in late, etc.. But we should know by now those tips are bull****. I'm being serious, what preventive measures can one take to prevent a situation like this?

History is ungood. Trust in the NSA, they're looking out for you.

Fantasy does not spring out of nothing but is in fact produced within the confines of reality, in turn this fantasy can then influence how others perceive or respond to reality. I don't know, I guess he worded fairly melodramatically. Ah, but that only focuses on "unrelated". I'd argue that to most sane folk fantasy and reality being "separate" and "distinct" is true, at least in the sense that they are easily able to tell them apart as separate. Of course, this is probably reading too much into what is an edgy liberal navel gazing over a latte.

Now you guys are just clutching your pearls at whatever comes out of their mouths. I think it's funny myself, but whatever helps you get your rocks off mate.

You were thinking for yourself. Surely you know this is not good?

I think the twitter account is a very complex piece of performance art.
