I didn't think we would have a second scientist shamed by the media. This is worse than the Nasa Shirt incident.

[AneroidOcean]

I'm curious, did he actually lose his job as other's have claimed? It sounds like he needed to resign from an "honorary professorship" and I'm just not sure what exactly that entails but it doesn't seem like he lost a job.

Perhaps our saving grace here is that Hunt/Seinfeld are older and past their peaks in terms of their production. Imagine if much younger versions of themselves were subjected to this nonsense and professionally restricted by it? Think how much poorer we'd all be if their talents were excised from the world for failing to fall in the SJW line.

The problem is the future, what about the people that don't get into comedy because of this atmosphere? You never see or even notice the greats that had the potential, but never became, simply because they didn't.

Slight side note, I was at my old university today looking for backpacker/student-y travel insurance, glanced at the bulletin board to see a "boycott Daniel Tosh" poster. Complete with a trigger warning. I was a little taken aback, I always thought trigger warnings were the kind of thing said in exaggerated jest to satirically mock overly-sensitive retards. To actually see one I had to step back and think "oh, they're actually serious..." How could the next Tosh even get going at the most basic level here?

To follow El Chinito loco said, everyone would be wise to tread lightly. These are the kind of people whom society needs more than they need us. Like the above example with comics, how many great minds and great discoveries will be foregone by guys who just say fuck it, go their own way, or otherwise resign themselves to not doing ground breaking work because they don't want to deal with the BS?

Point Proven then.

Some rich billionaire who doesn't give a fuck needs to start a company that profits by scooping up this top talent when their employers cut their own balls off by cutting them loose.

The problem with women is that they introduce sexual tension in the workplace and, typically, they don't contribute as much as men.
Women are at best a distraction and at worst a liability.

More women you have in your workplace, the more problems you get.

I heard the story initially when he decided to give that apology but still stood by what he said. I thought damn, and moved on. But hearing that he's lost his job for this? when he's been knighted and recieved a nobel prize, I'm just shocked and annoyed by it. I think I've been triggered.

I have heard stories about a lot of young men around 30 or so crying when criticized - what the fuck happened to them.

I am not saying men can't cry, but make sure it is over something huge. Not because you only got a satisfactory review and need to work on some areas of your work product.

No doubt.

Somebody had better have died or something if your going to start bauling in a public setting.

The generation coming up, the generation all around me, they are soft as baby shit.

You mean China?

Yeah. . they've been doing that for YEARS. I knew a Norweigian scientist guy who was headed to China and being paid WELL to hang out in Shanghai and do research. Someone needs to reach out to this guy, China doesn't have any of that B.S.

A lot of people dont realize that there is a HUGE brain Drain going on of people form the west, to China. The more of this SJWism that goes on in science fields in the west, the more the drain will increase. Basically, Nature wins. . .

Milo smashes it again, and no that's not a euphemism as he's a bender.

The female scientist has apparently since claimed she's been received a 'misogynistic backlash' on twitter...right out of the damsel in distress playbook. Shame, because she's a genuinely intelligent scientist, and normally reasonable.

Milo destroys the 'harassment' argument too, in this piece written yesterday. Don't these women realise that all this whinging and seeking special treatment affirms the point the Nobel prize guy was making?

I was thinking the same thing. Look at how feminists treat women like Sarah Palin or how liberals view black conservatives. That's gonna be the future for gay guys who don't tow the party line.

[KTK]

Forgive me if my comments are offensive; i say just accelerate the SJW / white knighting etc etc of said country and bring it to DEFCOCK 1 status.
If said country is to the point of no return (because this really on many areas takes the effin cake) , an accelerated reaction to bring it to social collapse might be the best way for a "restart" imho.
Aka an explosion, which in chemical terms is just a very fast exothermic reaction.

Ironic

Says women cry when criticized.
Women are offended and cry about it, the guy gets fired

[Kvothe]

Well, I sympathies with him a lot. Could write a whole book on this subject, as I going to be scientist soon. You would not believe the stuff women do in science department and how the quality of education because of that dropped. If a man who spent his whole life to better the lives of the whole human species can be destroyed because someone said that someone heard that he said something about girls in lab, that you can only imagine what a young aspiring scientist in the field is treated like.

There's loads of debates on Youtube where he completely owns the opposition using logic and normal thinking. Look them up if you're a fan of his writing - they're pretty awesome. And funny, as he says whatever he wants - and like others pointed out, gets away with it because he's gay.

Milo is a beast against SJWs, they hate him; because he is gay they can't use their normal slander against him.

This is, to me, the most dangerous type of feminist. Puts together a thought provoking article that seems to be factual and exposes the "bad feminists" destroying lives of scientists... then at the last second adds to her conclusion a statement with a couple more important "facts" like fighting the pay gap and a shortage of females in the lab.

See, she's a good feminist. No reason not to be on her side, right?

I didn't read the article. It's relevant to the discussion though.

I'll take your word about the writer, perhaps she is a typist.

That's the good thing about this forum, it isn't an echo chamber, but I can trust people here to be objective and analytic.

Seems like feminism is doing just fine

Something has to give. More and more people are seeing through the facade that feminism has been holding up. Feminism is the preserve of the white middle class female and her orbiters. They post articles about "mansplaining" and "manspreading" on social media, while young girls in deprived towns/cities of Northern Europe are getting raped, and many non-Western women are enduring genuine hardship and suffering. I can't see how the circus can continue, a figurehead of feminism made a porno, and feminist parents want to make their son better by forcing him to live as a girl.

How any rational person can justify that shit is beyond me. Maybe I'm being sentimental and over-hopeful to think it's reaching critical mass.

[Teedub]

Great interview with Milo and 'Sargon of Akkad' (not the forum one). It's long, but it's good:

Touches on all the relevant points about how SJWs are completely incapable of arguing the points, due to their hugbox environment.

[Wadsworth]

I thought this guy was a jackass when this story first broke, but I'm getting sick of all the attention whoring that is increasingly proving him correct. Know what happens when you say something about male scientists? Nothing.
