@shallow-blue saidNo, "Quid non" means "why not". Durrrr. Perhaps you shouldn't use trendy words if you have no freaking idea what they mean.
Huh?
Because... you're not little, you're not your pretend gurlie persona, and you are especially not the victim you love to portray yourself as.
And if there's any gaslighting being done in these forums - in the original meaning, not in the neo-Greerite feminist meaning you attach to it - it's you that's doing it, not anyone else.
This is my point here.
And this is what I've been saying, Mr. Nonsense, I am None of those things. I am not even the one doing the portraying. These characters are being portrayed for me by others, and you just assume they're right. In fact this is my whole point, you cannot see gaslighting, yes, in its original definition, for what it is, which is two forum posters trying to buffalo the entire forum into believing their BS (and which too many of them are perfectly happy doing), and you just happily, blithely, follow along, echoing their agenda. Relentless Red was exactly right when he posted about this over a year ago.
There is no "feminist" meaning to the word. It is what it is, which is something you think it's not. Watch the damned movie.
The ONE point you might have right is you labeling me as a "Greer Feminist". Germaine Greer did not believe in "equality feminism". She believed in "liberation feminism", and as such, I'm behind her 100%. Congrats for getting that much right, at the very least.
@a-unique-nickname said@divegeester has been relentless in his mischaracterization, AND he has allies like you playing his guitar for him.
What's also interesting is that people are not defending her? the way they used to. I think they're starting to see the truth.
@shallow-blue saidTake the easy out. How brave.
I don't view you as a victim. I see that you play the victim by accusing everyone else of your favourite sin against you, "gaslighting". A word you toss about so liberally that you have deprived it of all meaning.
@shallow-blue saidSo.... treating me like a victim means that you don't think I'm a victim, but means that I think I AM a victim. Some pretzel logic there, man.
No, you are not a little victim gurlie. You merely pretend that I'm "gaslighting" you into being one -- quid non.
And "quid non" means "why not". Why not WHAT? Think before you speak... please.
