To Mask or Not To Mask?

[jon-nyc]

You didn't state it, it just seemed to me you were trying to duck owning it.

If you say you weren't, that's good enough for me.

[Horace]

You think I try to duck ownership of an animus towards white woke progressives? Do you need another coffee or something?

[jon-nyc]

Of course. I will die not having had enough coffee.

The idea that it wasn't you that expressed animus towards her, rather it was a splash from the culture, strikes me as - how should I put it? - a less than Vulcan level of self awareness.

DaFuq????

Did @jon-nyc just make a Star Trek reference???

[Horace]

It was a WTF reference. Wtg said she was so objective and fact-based that she was basically Spock, and I raised my eyebrow (see what I did there?) at that. So jon tried to flip it back on me because jon sticks up for his friends, even the profoundly sanctimonious and pretentious among them.

I raised my eyebrow

I'll believe it when I see a photo.

C'mon, show us your "raised an eyebrow" pictures.

[Horace]

I can raise my right eyebrow but not my left.

I'm exactly the opposite.

[Horace]

Are you right-dominant or left-dominant in your hands and feet?

Right.

[Horace]

Me too. I wonder if there's a correlation between that and eyebrow control, and if so, which one of us is weird. I bet that's the sort of thing that could be googled.

No, it seemed to me that you called this girl a Karen because she struck a nerve being a pretty young girl teasing right wing incels. But then it seemed like you were not owning the insult, rather it seemed to me you were claiming that she was a textbook example of what society considers a Karen and you were simply pointing that out. (Like wtg claiming to be just reporting the news, not making her own point)

So yeah, I detected a lack of self awareness.

For the record I thought your criticism of WTG was both funny and on point.

[Rainman]

Horace and Jon both agreed:
"...because jon sticks up for his friends, even the profoundly sanctimonious and pretentious among them."

Thanks Guys! I'm just, just. . . overjoyed you noticed me!

Except it's pretty weird to accuse me of not owning a willingness to insult white progressives, cute young girls or otherwise. It's sort of one of my main points here that they're a problem. And there is no way you do not know that. Your real point here is that you had a flash of insight that it struck a nerve that she was a pretty girl insulting an "incel". That's nice jon.

WTG claims she's objective and fact based??????

BAWAAAAAHAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

[jon-nyc]

I realize you’re a newlywed and all, I just think the kind of guys she was criticizing fall well within your empathic domain.

Yeah I'm among the subset of people who can relate to a certain antipathy for the cooler than thou cliques in school. How about you, jon?

Yeah, sometimes the lack of self awareness burns. I find that it correlates with leftist viewpoints.
