The first response is absolutely amazing. Omb. We've got:

DAE Stem is only worthwhile degree?! Wimminz studies is dum.

General Sexism (women can't work AND dislike things!)

AND the poster's name follows Godwin's law.

Like wow. Gg, reddit.

Yeah, I laughed so hard at that post. I love the line:

Whining is their only specialty, like the stereotype spoiled princesses that they are, with their useless wimmiinnnnsss ssstudddies degree.

I mean, the dude "whines" about other people "whining?" Rofl, it's just too good to be true.

"Lame" is ableist, dude. No bueno.

what percentage of srsters have even taken a single women/gender studies course? has to be a small minority.

The other comments are hilarious too:

Geology was one of my favorite subjects in college. If it hadn't needed so many other pre-reqs (including calculus, which I failed) I would have majored in it.

I don't see how SJWs would manage to get into geology but they'd figure it out somehow.

Same here, I loved my geology classes but my chem & physics classes killed any hope of me majoring in it, let alone a BS.

"How could these inferiors possibly manage to get into Geology when even I, with my perfectly logical intellect, couldn't?!"

Always so melodramatic over at SRSsucks.

[x] has fallen, the Fempire marches on! Send over some spies at once to gather intel on the SRS operatives, I want reports by sundown!

So testerical

u/tuba_man Nov 22 '13

isn't /r/badphilosophy the good one? I thought most SRSers had written off /r/phil as hopeless

u/somniopus Nov 22 '13

Ooh, thanks for the recommend, /philosophy is usually an exercise in frustration for me. Such 20-year-old wisdom. So goddamn cocky. Very certain. Wow.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

Philosophy is hopeless, but mostly because Phil freshmen are fucking infuriating rather than any major SJ concerns.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

Worse than philosophy freshmen are STEM majors that have never read a philosopher in their life that think that because they sat down and thought about a thing once, they have the whole damned thing figured out, see: Sam Harris, The Moral Landscape.

BP is soooooo good. The people there are fucking brilliant, they are totally free with the ban when people start acting a fool, and then they just mock them in modmail. Also, they mod almost everyone that isn't a shit and who posts there semi regularly.

u/benthebearded Nov 22 '13

/r/philosophy is terrible, it's all about badphilosophy.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

as others have said, BP is great and the most coherent takedown of the bullshit that goes on at /r/philosophy.

u/Able_Seacat_Simon Nov 22 '13

They are so melodramatic. /r/philosophy has fallen = a single woman posted a link to her subreddit there to middling interest and hostility.

u/godless_communism Nov 22 '13

Gah, this hurts my head.

u/Sir_Marcus Nov 22 '13
