Actually, that's true for most humans too.
I mean look at those that call themselves "voters". If they have even a shred of free will left, then I'm a sheep wearing cowboy boots with a gas mask attached to a horse's eye while riding it and the horse has human bodies for feet!

Re:virtue signaling
there is no such thing as a SJW, it's just a way for you to show a tribal affiliation
Uh huh. So SJW is not a tribal affiliation, but the people who call out their bullshit is. Gotcha.
We've seen the social "justice" warriors for awhile now, and pretending that they don't exist is a brazen lie.
Exhibit 1: The in-group hair tints.
Exhibit 2: A group of people that don't exist visiting Google.
Exhibit 3: Another group of people that don't exist harassing a university professor out of a job because they were upset over Halloween costumes.
I could go on and on. The social "justice" idiots have been very active and well-documented.

Re:Meaningless
It's much wiser to pirate
We got burnt by this crap just last weekend for my kid's birthday party. My ex-wife bought a movie online the morning before the party instead of trorrenting it the night before like I told her to. The projector didn't support the DRM.
Sorry kids, no movie for you even though we paid for it legally.

Re:This is not the problem
starvation
.star'vaSH(e)n/
noun
suffering or death caused by hunger.
synonyms: extreme hunger, lack of food, famine, undernourishment, malnourishment
Let's try English, shall we? Undernourishment, lack of food, EXTREME HUNGER. Like 14 million households, not getting enough food; like 7 million households, experiencing extreme food insecurity and pain from hunger.
It's hard to quantify starvation. It's hard to quantify malnourishment. It's hard to quantify death. Estimates of 3000+ per year dead in America by starvation stand right next to estimates of almost 50% of deaths under 5 (28,000 deaths under 5 per year in the United States) being caused by malnutrition--that is, we know people were eating, we know the kids were eating, but they weren't eating enough; we can't exactly say they died of
... well, starving to death ... but their bodies did stop functioning simply from stress caused by being hungry all the fucking time, essentially BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T FED ENOUGH. We can't exactly point to this in the muck of complications it causes, which brings other health effects, any one of which can be the killing blow, ultimately caused by chronic hunger but not itself chronic hunger, so not technically death by hunger.In short: people who die because they don't eat enough may not have technically died of hunger, even though they wouldn't have died if they had adequate food security. In the same way, people who die of heart disease caused by smoking are marked as dying by heart disease, rather than "death by cigarettes".
You can be like this woman and argue that dying of complications caused by and related to chronic hunger aren't the same as starving to death, but you'd be intellectually dishonest and not credible.

Re:Sounds good.
This needs to be modded up heavily. The myth that the #NotYourShield campaign was a bunch of white male drooling nerds in a basement is provably false and needs to die. Here's another relevant graphic and I find it hilarious that this is exactly what the haters of #NotYourShield have done ever since it came out: dismiss the speakers completely.

Re:That's capitalism.
This is not the proper place to have a full discussion about what you've typed (especially since Slashdot will lock the comments soon) but I should at least contest the overall sentiment. A "war on douchebags" (so to speak) is no different than a "war on drugs" or "war on terror." You cannot eliminate people being jerks. No one will ever succeed with goals like "make people stop being unfair." It is an impossible goal, largely because the definition of things like "fairness" and "manners" and any number of other social moral judgments are subjective and highly fluid. Who decides where the boundaries are? Who gets to tune what constitutes equality? There is no one person that can sit in that chair and be truly "fair," especially with so much of the composition of equality being compromises, and in the absence of compromise there is only favoritism. To illustrate: in exchange for men giving up certain things for equality, will women do the same, i.e. all women (in the U.S.) at age 18 being legally required to sign up for selective service?
As long as people have autonomy, they will behave in the way that they want to behave. The only three ways to eliminate that are to allow them to make a profound personal mistake that teaches them to behave that way, to convince them to make an effort to change their own behavior, or to take away their autonomy. The first is out of anyone's control while the third is on the same overall moral level as things like Big Brother, Hitler, or eugenics, leaving the second option: convincing someone to change.
Feminism as it manifests publicly doesn't change anything; it violently pushes away the people it would need to convince to change. Until feminists can come to the table with a civil and convincing set of arguments, the only people who will listen will be the feminist echo chamber.
One final note: most of the oppression of women today comes from other women, not men. Who do you think operates all of those beauty magazines? If you want to see how modern female oppression really works, this comic illustrates it best (even though there are some English usage issues.) -

Re:The Greatest Lying Mouth of All Time(tm)
"Anonymous pussy coward," that's rich. It's been so long since you've had privacy that you can't even remember it, can you?
Altogether you are a traitor to your own country, and if there were any justice in the world it wouldn't be innocent people rotting away in Abu Ghraib, it'd be you and your despicable, traitor family. Spout obscenities like a child on XBox Live all you like, you'll be a traitor when you go to sleep tonight and you'll be a traitor when you wake up tomorrow morning. A traitor who refused to stand up for the same principles that people have died for. It's people like you who don't deserve rights, people like you who should be put in cages and treated like base animals.
People like you. Traitors.
Truth hurts, doesn't it? Incidentally, since you're so proud of your lack of privacy, maybe we ought to talk about your alter ego? Seeing as how you're far less cowardly than I am and all?

Re:what my mom would do
Facts:
FunnyJunk encourages users to upload content from elsewhere on the internet
FunnyJunk encourages users to violate the copyrights of content producersSorry, but can you actually verify that? Not trolling, but I can't find any sources where they "encourage" users to upload content from other sites. Are the forum admins actually telling people it's fine to upload content from elsewhere on the internet? That's a pretty bold claim that's been repeated here a few times - an example below from their TOS seems to indicate otherwise (more details if you read more at http://www.funnyjunk.com/termsofservice/ - unless this was very recently updated as a result of this fiasco)
24. User agrees to upload only Third-Party Content for which User holds intellectual property rights, including but not limited to, copyrights, trademarks, rights to the use of personal name and likeness, and rights of publicity.
I'm not trying to defend FJ here, they're clearly the assholes for attempting to sue for $20k here. But there's a big difference between actively encouraging users to pirate material (something you could argue that The Pirate Bay does, given their tongue-in-cheek name and history of mocking DMCA take-down notices) - and simply not removing copyrighted material fast enough (apathy, or negligence).

Re:$100,000 and counting
Seems like some of the FunnyJunk users agree with theOatmeal (http://funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/3786053/Oatmeal+vs.+FJ/, http://www.funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/3786664/Oatmeal+VS+Funnyjunk/). I wonder how long that will stay up, and if the owner is investing personal time or has hired someone to make sure offending or problematic images (http://funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/1244988/BEARODACTYL/) stay off the site.

Re:Wonderful, just wonderfulThey *are* in bed with big business. You should neither try to pretend that Democrats are actually good, nor that just because both parties are shit, the GOP can't be a whole lot worse than the Dems.
