The convention was not run by Tumblr, but it was targeted to Tumblr users. They paid $65 for a pass only to be told that $17,000 was immediately needed so the convention could start. People put money in bags. They raised the money, but the convention still did not proceed, and now Tumblr users are being mocked for being idiots who got ripped off. No "panelists" made it to the convention, and those who helped raise the $17k got extra time in the ball pit and bouncy castle.

Some videos of the event show Tumblr users exactly as you would expect them to look like...













They are bunch of adolescent children. This is userbase that Yahoo paid $1.1 billion for.

Ask and you shall receive.



If you've over 12, you're too fucking old to play dress-up. What's with American's infantile culture lately?

Also: strange that our critics say we're all secretly living in our mom's basements, when that's what that picture speaks to me of. Can't they even imagine adult males anymore?

That is the most disgusting collection of women I ever seen in my life.

I know it's like picking on a mentally disabled kid, but I just can't help feeling an overwhelming sense of schadenfreude every time some ill befalls the tumblr community.

I thought I knew low value women.

I didn't know low value women.

What made me laugh: Tumblr thinks women should run the world, yet women organised this convention.

While of course I've heard of it, I know nothing about Tumblr. Is it a bastion of fat feminists? I'm guessing this based on the video and pictures.

That is outstanding.

A few days ago I was introduced to the phrase "dumpy semi-fatties". Now "back titties" and "ham hocks". Great stuff.

Fat feminists, white knights, drama whores, SJW, and crazy rape claimants.

Everything is a trigger word and people's emotions are fragile and overly sensitive.

Meanwhile, a shot of the crowd at the 1st Annual RVF World Convention:

Post: #12

Broader society needs to understand that these are the type of people engaging in "hashtag activism" and "Twitter protests". These are the type of people driving these social media faux-controversies that result in people being fired or forced to issue groveling apologies for the thought crime of expressing forbidden opinions.

These are the female versions of the basement dwelling, video game playing omega males. Instead of playing games, they play on Twitter and Tumblr. Instead of developing an artificial feeling of power by pwning some scrubs in Call of Duty, they prefer to dogpile onto their ideological enemies on the internet. That's really all this is. It's simply how broken, unsuccessful, socially maladapted people claim a feeling of power in a modern world that has rendered the mass of people increasingly alienated and impotent.

Has anyone ever known an attractive, happy, feminine woman to sit around on Tumblr and Twitter talking about SJW bullshit? I'm sure you could find a handful of examples, but they are the exceptions that prove the rule. Most of these women are fat, ugly and socially awkward. Mental illness is probably as common as tattoos and hair dye. Put simply, these people are fucking losers. They are a fringe element. Their views do not even come close to representing a true societal consensus, and yet that is exactly how they are treated on social media. These damaged souls have been successful in hijacking social media to bully society into accepting their warped ideology.

It's just amazing to me that these people can be taken seriously, and that these Twitter lynch mobs are a real thing. These people are just looking for an excuse to get angry and ruin someone else's life. It's the only thing that makes them feel better about themselves. The correct course of action is simply to ignore them or mock them mercilessly.

The myth that these Tumblr SJWs represent the moral consciousness of modern America needs to die. These people aren't moral, they aren't even really interested in their own cause. They're simply fucking losers who finally found a way to feel powerful by joining up with other losers on the internet to attack those who dare to deviate from their modern progressive religion.

Tumblr people are like the bizarro American version of ISIS/Islamic militants. ISIS are men, Tumblrs are women. ISIS use guns, Tumblrs use smartphones. ISIS chops off their enemies' heads, Tumblrs make empty threats on Twitter. ISIS speak with absolute conviction, Tumblrs speak with snark and sarcasm. Both agree on one thing, though: everyone who opposes them needs to die! Of course, ISIS will actually do something about that. The Tumblrs will just sit around and bitch on social media and hope that maybe a man will get around to doing something for them soon.

In short, the Tumblrs represent everything wrong with feminism and progressivism. They are the living embodiment of a broken ideology, which is why so many of them are broken themselves: it resonates deeply with them on a personal level. The feeling of inadequacy that can be projected outward onto others: They must suffer, because I have suffered! The faux-moral indignation that flows from this thought: I am righteous because I have suffered, I am right to attack others who have not suffered as I have, those who enjoy unearned privileges!

Just say no to this. Just call these people fucking crazy, and mock them relentlessly at every turn. Never take them seriously, and encourage the companies/organizations/etc... they target with their social media bullying to do the same. Their rage is impotent and fleeting. These companies fear a social media tsunami when in reality its more like an afternoon shower. It must stop. Look at these people and remember they are the ones behind all the SJW promotion on social media. Think about that during the next progressive Twitter bullying session.

I keep thinking of that line from the movie Observe and Report...

"I thought this would be funny, but it's actually really kind of sad."

Post: #14

It's also amazing when you think about how many people these losers have gotten fired through their twitter terrorism as well. Buncha fat freaks.

However, there is a good news to this. These people will never become important and have no future.

I had a tumblr account for about a year, I closed it down shortly before finding about this forum. I had opened it because it was a decent place to look at cool random shit. However as I spent more time there I noticed how stupid it was. Not only do people spend ALL day logged on blogging things, but the level of attention whoring is off the charts. People literally whore themselves to get more followers, meanwhile the community itself is full of assholes who love to put people down through anonymous comments right after acting a victim on their own blogs. Just my two cents about what I experienced during the year I wasted on there.

Scorp:



Since all history is cyclical, a lightbulb just went off in my head. It's been staring me in the face all this time.

After months of going from unaware of this rubbish to seeing how unavoidable it is in every form of media, I have completely accepted that Progressivism is a theological offshoot of Catholicism / Puritanism. The similarities in behaviour are too similar, and I can see we're transitioning into a period of sexual repression, which explains the dismissive-avoidant nature of suspicious, uncomfortable Millenial Dating, and, as we're seeing here, an obsession with childhood innocence long past the age a healthy person would have discarded it.

It's simply Neo-Victorianism. Hell, Progressive Men are even competing for social status via the lengths of their beards again.

I posted a while ago about the Victorian-Era feminists and how they were simply beating the same drum as the modern ones, including the same damn talking points (equal pay, slut shaming, gay marriage), because Privileged Women of the time were obsessed with Social Reformation. Why, though?

After 125 years of 'progress', all it takes is the same combination of factors to exist in society: social class stratification; a privileged female upbringing; sexual discomfort and repression; a dominant religion; and a belief in one's own superior morality, and the end result is the same as then. We're simply seeing the return of The Cult of Sensibility.

The term is rarely used now and most people would confuse it with common sense, so I'll try to explain, pinching some parts from Wikipedia.

Quote:Sensibility: refined or excessive sensitiveness in emotion and taste with especial responsiveness to the pathetic.

It originated as a way of thinking in the 18th century, and was originally considered virtuous. To be 'sensible' meant to have a deep emotional reaction to a stimulus that most people would find insignificant - to cry over the beauty of a sunset; to gasp in shock at a perceived rudeness; to beat your breast over the poor. These were all signs that you were closer to Godliness than other people, even though it made you much more fragile. Sensibility was a display of piety.

This is where the concept of sentimentality comes from, as sensibility was used in sentimental novels to provoke emotional responses in readers, done by juxtaposing tenderness with scenes of distress, as the plot is designed to advance emotion rather than action. (Modern analogues would be Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Twilight. Progressive science fiction is entirely-sentimental, more concerned with fucking aliens than fighting them. As readers and viewers grow more hysterical, the emotional stakes have to increase. The end result: modern television is obsessed with shocking viewers by killing off characters to get everyone talking (Walking Dead, Game Of Thrones, True Blood).

'Especial responsiveness to the pathetic'?

Quote:The sentimental novel complemented social trends of the time toward humanism and the heightened value of human life. The literature focused on weaker members of society, such as orphans and condemned criminals, and allowed readers to identify and sympathize with them. This translated to growing sentimentalism within society, and led to social movements calling for change, such as the abolition of the death penalty and of slavery. Instead of the death penalty, popular sentiment called for the rehabilitation of criminals, rather than harsh punishment.

So why the transition from 'refined' to 'excessive' sensitiveness? In the race for privileged women to prove that they had greater moral refinement than the other women in their peer group, women acted with increasing levels of histrionics. This was the age of the fainting couch. Modern psychology now recognises that the descriptions of hysteria matches those of Clinical Depression. Eventually, this obsession with one's own feelings and reaction to stimulus became to be considered extreme Narcissism rather than godliness, and it had withered away completely by the First World War.

Jane Austen was a brilliant observer of social interaction, and was far too intelligent to tolerate such nonsense, (though her writing goes over the head of the modern hysteric reading it).

Quote:[Love and friendship [sic] is] an exuberant parody of the cult of sensibility, which she later criticized in a more serious way in her novel Sense and Sensibility. For the main characters in Love and Freindship, including the narrator Laura, violent and overt emotion substitutes for morality and common sense. Characters who have this "sensibility" fall into each other's arms weeping the first time they ever meet, and on suffering any misfortune are too preoccupied with indulging their emotions to take any effective action. They use their fine feelings as the excuse for any misdeeds, and despise characters without such feelings.

Samuel Johnson similarly mocked it with one of his characters:

Quote:She daily exercises her benevolence by pitying every misfortune that happens to every family within her circle of notice; she is in hourly terrors lest one should catch cold in the rain, and another be frighted by the high wind. Her charity she shews by lamenting that so many poor wretches should languish in the streets, and by wondering what the great can think on that they do so little good with such large estates.

So, for a Modern Cult Of Sensibility to be identifiable, we'd have to look for these women:

- Privileged upbringing

- Lack of true hardship so a need to inflate small slights into hardship

- Easily offended

- Genuinely and meaningfully triggered by the insignificant

- Emotionally fragile

- Morally superior

- Clinically depressed

- Extremely narcissistic

- Indulge their emotions instead of taking positive action

- Treat their emotions as justification for bad behaviour

- Hate those who don't emotionally-react

- Obsessed with emotion-based entertainment

i.e. every Social Justice Warrior, female journalist, the majority of women in Humanities, and every teenage girl on Tumblr.

We have to accept that any society where women from privileged, comfortable backgrounds hold the power will naturally encourage a cult of sensibility, and, as such, will celebrate neurosis and react with hysteria instead of common sense.

Said women will never achieve anything, because they're too busy indulging their emotions than actually taking action, so 125 years now from them, some historian is going to be reading old twitter accounts and saying "Hey, they used to talk about fat shaming back then too!" We will just go around and around, getting nowhere, until men take the wheel again.

Of course, I'm only theorising here. If only someone could exclusively-research a group of upper class, spoilt, privileged women and perhaps note the links between depression, hysteria and neurosis, and then posit psychological theories that accurately-predict their emotional responses and behaviours.

Oh, yeah. Freud's patients were almost-exclusively upper class women.



I'm no writer. If any of you clever bastards want to research and run with this idea and do it better justice, go for it. I don't need credit.

Thank you, that was awesome. I kinda want to punch everyone on tumblr now.

The one person (I couldn't tell if it was a guy or girl) who was a femme/queer who was non-binary so to refer to him/her as they/their? What the fuck was that? People today are such narcissistic attention whores. It's as if their (stupid) opinion isn't heard, the world will fall apart.

I'm watching/listening to the "Thin Privilege" episode now.
