Transgender: Victims of Societal Prejudice or Dangerous Criminal Perverts?

Posted on | February 25, 2016 | 95 Comments

 

Davina Ayrton, 34, was known as David Ayrton until 2013, and in 2004, David Ayrton raped a 15-year-old girl in England:

A transgender woman has been found guilty of raping a girl when she was a man called David – and has been sent to a male prison.
A jury convicted Davina Ayrton, who changed her name from David three years ago, of the sexual attack on a 15-year-old girl in the autumn of 2004 following a week-long trial at Portsmouth Crown Court. . . .
The court heard that Ayrton, who has a son, has learning difficulties and has been living at the Heywood Sumner House care home in Fordingbridge.
The court was also told that the 34-year-old attempted to commit suicide last summer. . . .
The court was also told that Ayrton was convicted of possessing indecent images of children at Bournemouth Crown Court in January 2014. . . .
The trial heard that Ayrton had met up with the victim, who had run away from home, and two friends on an evening in the autumn of 2004 and gone drinking in a garage which had a sofa and chairs in it.
The victim described how she screamed and shouted at Ayrton, who was 23 at the time, to stop but failed to wake up her friend and her boyfriend who were sleeping nearby.
The prosecution was brought after a care worker reported that Ayrton had confessed to the rape in January 2014 and also told her that she was a “paedophile” and that she had “always known there was something wrong with me and I need help”.

One of the weird things about “social justice” is how it divides people into collective categories of identity, based on political notions of “oppression” and “privilege.” This concept enables very bad people to claim victimhood, while stigmatizing honest citizens as oppressors. We are supposed to feel pity for Ayrton, a transgender “woman” who has learning difficulties, etc., but what about the 15-year-old girl Ayrton raped? How many pedophiles are also transgender? How many dangerous criminals are lurking within these Victim of Society categories that “social justice” ideology creates?

Because, really, why not hire more lesbian school teachers?

 

#FreeStacy: Why Won’t @Jack Make @Twitter Stop Harassing @PaxDickinson?

Posted on | February 25, 2016 | 22 Comments

We know @Delbius — Del Harvey, the Twitter executive who put together the “Trust and Safety Council” — is OK with alleged pedophile Nicholas “Sarah” Nyberg, and with child pornography defenders like Alison Rapp.

Twitter supports creeps you wouldn’t want anywhere near your children, and silences people for criticizing these perverts, so it’s easy to understand why some people might be afraid of Twitter.

And now, Pax Dickinson accuses Twitter of harassing him:

I thought complaining about being harassed by @Twitter would be a delicious but forgettable bit of satire but I seem to have struck a nerve . . . .
I decided that @Twitter‘s ongoing harassment might make me some easy victim dollars, but my Patreon doesn’t seem to be collecting any sympathy bucks. I have my suspicions why.

Block and report! Block and report!

Meanwhile, Ace of Spades comments:

As Twitter continues to lose users, as I expect they will, I imagine they will in fact be bossy and vindictive enough to start saying “Inactive users’ accounts will be deactivated and reassigned to others,” etc.
So part of the reason I will provide one or two posts a day is just to keep them from taking away my brand-name account and then, like a cybersquatter, threatening to assign it to someone else, including an enemy.
Does that seem far-fetched? Well, I also didn’t expect Twitter to ban Anna Sarkeesian critic Stace McCain within days of Anna Sarkeesian joining the Ministry of Emotional Safety and Mental Hygiene.
I thought they’d be a bit more subtle about things than that.
But they weren’t.

Subtlety? You expected subtlety from the pro-pedophile child-pornography site Twitter? Were you really that naïve, Ace?

Del Harvey and her creepy friends are trying to make Twitter a “safe space” for kiddie diddlers like Lena Dunham and accused rapists like “Dr. Luke.” Twitter obviously doesn’t want normal people on their site. Catering to perverts seems like a smart business decision, right?

 

Twitter’s stock, which was $23.14 on Dec. 31, closed Thursday at $17.59 — a loss of 24% of its value in less than two months — and has lost 84 cents since banning me on Feb. 19. Probably just a coincidence.

#FreeStacy: Does @Twitter @Support Child-Porn Defender @AlisonRapp?

Posted on | February 25, 2016 | 27 Comments

 

Irony much? @AlisonRapp is an advocate of perversion who hates #GamerGate. She is an enthusiastic promoter of Japanese anime videogames that have been criticized as fantasy fodder for pedophiles and, in fact, Ms. Rapp has denounced as “censorship” the criminalization of child pornography. Twisted freaks like Ms. Rapp are welcome on Twitter’s platform, whereas criticism of self-described pedophiles like Nicholas “Sarah” Nyberg will get your account suspended in the name of “Trust and Safety.” Making cunnilingus jokes about teenage anime characters? That’s OK with Twitter. Calling Anita Sarkeesian a totalitarian ideologue, however, could be construed as “targeted abuse.”

The methods by which progressive Thought Police silence dissent involve blatant double-standards, raising all kinds of questions about what the world will look like once the forces of “social justice” have destroyed every possible source of opposition to the weird agenda that @AlisonRapp and @srhbutts are permitted to promote on Twitter. Feminists and their degenerate allies claim to be victims of “harassment” if anyone calls attention to the frightening truth about them and their ideology.

No sane or decent person could accept Third-Wave feminist “gender theory” — i.e., the social construction of the gender binary within the heterosexual matrix, to summarize Judith Butler’s influential ideas as succinctly as possible — which is why feminism in the 21st century is an organized movement of the insane and indecent.

The past few days have been hectic, and it is difficult to keep up with developments, but everything readers can do to support the #FreeStacy movement is appreciated. If you are on Twitter, every tweet and RT helps. Some people have changed their Twitter handles to “I Am Stacy McCain,” because your voice is the only voice I now have on Twitter. How this battle will end, I don’t know, but please keep up the fight.

Pray hard, and never doubt God answers prayers.

Violence Against Women That @JaclynF and @JessicaValenti Will Never Mention

Posted on | February 24, 2016 | 42 Comments

Feminists are highly selective in terms of what crimes against women they notice. Suppose, for example, that an embittered Ivy League girl wants to get her ex-boyfriend expelled from school. This is an urgent cause to feminists, and Emma Sulkowicz carrying a mattress around campus becomes a national news story. Or suppose that a crazy girl at a top-tier state university makes up a tall tale about being gang-raped at a fraternity. Again, this is urgent to feminists, and Rolling Stone will publish a lurid 9,000-word article about Jackie Coakley’s imaginary rape by the fictional “Haven Monahan.” Stigmatizing fraternities and boys at Ivy League schools as rapists is what the feminist agenda is all about.

On the other hand . . .

 

Jessica Chambers, 19, was burned to death in Mississippi. The case remained unsolved for more than a year, but now police say they’ve arrested the monster responsible for this atrocity:

A 27-year-old man has been indicted in the December 2014 burning death of Mississippi cheerleader Jessica Chambers, prosecutors announced Wednesday.
Quinton Verdell Tellis is already in custody in Louisiana on unauthorized credit card use charges. Authorities say the card in question belonged to a murdered Taiwanese exchange student and that while Tellis has not been charged in the student’s death, he remains a suspect in the investigation. . .  .
“This has been the most unusual case that I’ve ever dealt with, the nature of how she died was very brutal and very horrendous,” District Attorney John Champion said at a press conference Wednesday. . . .
Tellis’s social media postings suggest he was part of the Insane Vice Lords street gang,according to the Clarion-Ledger. The paper reports that Champion confirmed Tellis was in a gang but said the crime was not gang-related. Tellis had been living with his wife in Louisiana when he was arrested in August on the credit card charges. . . .

Really, someone should ask Jaclyn Friedman and Jessica Valenti and Amanda Marcotte and — heck, why not? — Anita Sarkeesian if they can call attention to this violent crime, because last time I looked, none of them had mentioned it at all. They do not actually give a damn about anything except their own pet political agendas, which have nothing to do with a crime like this. Feminists are selfish and dishonest, and cannot be trusted to tell the truth about anything.

 

University Students Are Helpless Infants

Posted on | February 24, 2016 | 50 Comments

Today I was babysitting my two young grandsons. When they arrived, I had the living room TV tuned to Turner Classic Movies (TCM) which was showing an old Jimmy Cagney gangster flick from the 1930s. For some reason, 2-year-old James found this black-and-white movie fascinating — guess he’d never seen such a thing — so I left it on that channel while I took care of the 5-month-old, Alexander. And then TCM showed the original Mighty Joe Young, and James was totally hooked into the story. He got a bit scared during the dramatic climax, when the children are trapped in a burning house and are saved by the heroic giant gorilla. However, my 2-year-old grandson was not nearly as scared as University of Michigan students, who were terrified by the thought that Milo Yiannopoulos and Julie Bindel were allowed to speak on campus:

During the debate, the two speakers exchanged arguments about feminism, debating whether the feminist movement impedes an individual’s freedom of speech. . . .
Yiannopoulos has been the subject of significant criticism for his opinions on individual feminists and feminist ideology, namely his views that feminists invent problems that do not exist — such as campus rape culture and the gender wage gap.
Bindel, who considers herself a second-wave feminist . . . has also received criticism for her treatment of modern feminists and the transgender community. . . .
In response to the debate, the University’s Spectrum Center — which dedicates its efforts to LGBTQ awareness on campus — offered extended office hours to provide an alternative space for students who felt threatened by the debate.
Engineering freshman Conrad Stoll said he was surprised the center hosted a safe gathering space for members of the LGBTQ community during the debate, since both Yiannopoulos and Bindel are gay.
“I would think that would be good,” Stoll said. “There’s two renowned people who are in the queer community and I was really shocked that the Spectrum Center acted as if they were terrible.”
The Spectrum Center was not immediately available for comment Tuesday evening. A statement on their website reads, “We recognize that the rhetoric of the speakers featured in this event is incredibly harmful to many members of our campus community. The Spectrum Center will be providing a supportive alternative space this evening and holding extended staffed hours until 9 p.m. There will be no program; our intent is to offer a relaxing, positive space for students who want to gather in community.”

WHAT? The “rhetoric” of two British homosexuals “is incredibly harmful” to the LGBTQ “community” in Ann Arbor? HOW? Students “felt threatened by the debate”? WHY? Are these students incapable of distinguishing between words and actions? Ideas and emotions? Fantasy and reality? My little grandson got a bit frightened during Mighty Joe Young, but he didn’t need a “safe space.” Have college students today never been told to grow up and stop being scaredy-cats?

 

We don’t tolerate cry-babies and scaredy-cats in my family. Adulthood requires courage. A family motto:

“Fortune Favors the Bold.”

Fear only God. Whom God would save, no man can destroy, and whom God would destroy, no man can save. Take pride in your fearlessness, and learn to laugh at danger.




 

#FreeStacy: Have You Mentioned @srhbutts Lately? Perhaps You Should

Posted on | February 24, 2016 | 29 Comments

 

“If Nicholas ‘Sarah’ Nyberg (@srhbutts) is a feminist, I’m the King of Sweden. What is he/she? Living proof that bad causes attract bad people, and the ‘Social Justice Warrior’ (SJW) crusade against #GamerGate is a very bad cause.”
Robert Stacy McCain, March 18, 2015

Nicholas Edwin “Sarah” Nyberg was masquerading online as “Sarah Butts” when he/she unwisely attempted to silence a website, 8chan.net, which had supported #GamerGate, by falsely accusing them of hosting child pornography. However, he/she failed to anticipate the reaction, i.e., that the people he/she had attacked would figure out who he/she actually was, connect the dots, and expose Nicholas/Sarah’s unsavory background. Nyberg was the subject of a March 2015 article I wrote called “Fake #GamerGate Victims” and, five months later, my Twitter account was briefly suspended as a consequence.

That was the first time my account had ever been suspended since I joined Twitter in 2009, and readers may draw from this whatever conclusion they wish. #GamerGate began as an effort to expose the shoddy ethics of certain journalists who were covering the videogame industry and also, allegedly, having sex with Chelsea Van Valkenburg a/k/a “Zoe Quinn.” These dishonest journalists did not enjoy the exposure of their conflicts of interest and so, with the help of their friends in the Democrat-Media Complex, they turned #GamerGate into a misleading narrative, i.e., videogame players are hateful misogynists who harass women online. Well, these two narratives are not necessarily contradictory. It may simultaneously be true that (a) women are harassed online by guys who play videogames, and (b) coverage of the videogame industry is biased by selfish and dishonest writers who pretend to care about “social justice” while allegedly having sex with Zoe Quinn.

It is not my job to say which issue is more relevant to you, the reader, but when the Democrat-Media Complex takes sides in a public controversy, my hunch is they are on the wrong side. Liberals are deeply prejudiced and, to anyone who has studied their belief system, the things that liberals hate — capitalism, Christianity, the U.S. military, etc. — are as obvious as the things they love, e.g., sodomy, treason and socialism. Exactly how these liberal prejudices relate to #GamerGate, I’ll leave for the reader’s judgment. For now, the more relevant question is whether these biases of liberalism explain why my Twitter account was suspended last week. Did my prior encounter with Nicholas Edwin “Sarah” Nyberg (a/k/a “Sarah Butts”) in some way influence this otherwise unexplained action?

In September, Milo Yiannopoulos published a lengthy examination of Nyberg’s pedophile-themed online chats.

 

 

These conversations, which occurred circa 2005-2006, involved Nyberg expressing sexual attraction to his/her young female relative. At the time, Nyberg was earning a lucrative income as proprietor of a forum devoted to discussion of a videogame called “Final Fantasy.”

Now, a decade later, we find Nyberg online pretending to be a feminist in order to accuse videogamers of hating women? Why would such a vile person be acceptable as an ally of a “social justice” movement, and why would anyone be suspended from Twitter for telling the truth about who Nyberg really is? Why would Twitter support choose to protect such an allegedly dangerous person as Nyberg?

“God gave them up unto vile affections . . . God gave them over to a reprobate mind . . .”
Romans 1:26-28 (KJV)

Beware of reprobate minds. Crazy people are dangerous.

UPDATE: Daniel Payne at the Federalist:

Just two weeks after it announced its new “Trust and Safety Council,” there are tentative signs Twitter’s chickens may be coming home to roost. The social media platform earlier this month signaled it intends to begin more actively censoring user-generated content to make users feel more “safe.” A few days ago it claimed its first victim under this new regime, suspending the Twitter account of ardent anti-feminist Robert Stacy McCain. . . .
In response, actor Adam Baldwin — an extremely popular Twitter user with nearly a quarter of a million followers — tweeted one final time, deleted the rest of his nearly 10,000 tweets, and quit Twitter for good. A short while later, Ace of Spades — the Frank Lloyd Wright of conservative Twitter rants — signaled that he, too, intends to more or less abandon Twitter.
Taken together, these events — the wholesale suppression of McCain’s Twitter presence, and the departure of two heavyweight conservative voices on the platform — suggest things may be changing on Twitter even faster than previously anticipated. . . .

Read the whole thing.
