Evil Racists of Worldcon

Aug 28, 2014 00:20


Here at http://woodwardiocom.livejournal.com/915223.html Jonathan Woodward calls for kicking out the “dinosaurs” whom he claims are racists from Worldcon. And here at “Further Thoughts on Fandom and Reverse Racism,” he explains why only whites can be racists and why the world is divided into “whites” and “people of color.” http://woodwardiocom.Read more... )

I see he uses that tried and tested debating technique of accusing you of using a "strawman" whenever you point out a fallacy in his argument. Bravo ( ... )

My criticisms must have terrified the original author to the point of wetting his pants, because he closed down comments on the first post and then banned me from his blog. Essentially, because I persisted in pointing out the problems with the assumption that only whites can be racists. The specific thread he closed down comments over was the one in which I asked one of his other commentators whether or not WisCon's "Safer Spaces" was racist.

Charles Stross is a particularly vile individual. He equates Hamas with Israel, actively supports supporting terrorism, and considers it unobjectionable to engage in criminal business fraud to go after conservatives. This is too bad, as he's not a bad writer. I have made it a point of pride to only every buy his books used, to avoid giving him any credit or royalties for his work.

Equating Hamas with Israel is a fallacy, but is it on that basis or something else that you say he actively supports terrorism? Also, what do you mean by "(he) considers it unobjectionable to engage in criminal business fraud to go after conservatives"?

You missed a "support" in there-- if he's urging people to support Hamas with any knowledge of their tactics, then he supports supporting Hamas.

I've yet to meet someone who equates Hamas with Israel who doesn't know of their tactics, they just try to justify them.

He considered it morally acceptable when Carlos Yu and Douglas Muir made fraudulent bids on my eBay sales in order to both block the genuine bids and then immediately post negative feedback on my account, because I am a conservative.

This is gigantic -- it means that over one half of one percent of the whole population of the town was repeatedly raped by this gang before it approached a scale such that it could no longer be shoved under the rug. In some cases, as you point out, political dissidents were, de facto, punished by having their children raped.

This is also an argument against gun control. In any place without gun control, the responsible officials would be in hiding by now.

The worst part, the authorities were aiding the criminals, they found a young girl half naked under a guy's bed and arrested HER!
