Jim writes Op-ed on feminist site asking people to stop threatening Lindy West. The comments & voting are a bit of a warzone. And I don't care about this debate anymore.

I don't even know why Jimmy is acknowledging the trolls who are saying that shit, same thing with Lindy West. There are always going to be trolls who post unintelligent comments against you, regardless of what you are arguing.

For instance, If you have conservatives and liberals arguing, you will get a few conservatives that say some dumb shit, and the liberals will bring that dumb comment to light and act like it applies to all conservatives, and vice versa.

However, I do think it's especially weak on lindy's part to even acknowledge the trolls, since it's clear what her intentions are. She's trying to portray all of her opponents as these dumb men who can't argue a point, while she is a 'smart liberal feminist who intelligently smashes the patriarchy against all cis-white-male-rapist scum', blah blah blah. And since she's acknowledging these obvious trolls, Jimmy feels an obligation to respond to it.

ehh.....It's just frustrating to see people feed the trolls.

It's really frustrating that she's trying to act like "See? There IS a problem with rape culture in comedy, look at all these tweets and Youtube comments!" It's not that at all, it's just the fucking internet. The people who tweet that shit also tweet to people that they should die, get AIDS, get cancer, etc. They just say rape because they think that's what's going to be the most offensive to her. She knows that, too, she's just taking advantage of the opportunity to get more of her base rallied and "outraged". She also LOVES to straw man from what I've seen/read from her.

Anyone who argues that 'rape culture' is a real thing, is a strawman addict.

She's a fuckin dunce anyway.

She brought it on herself. She just wants to be a victim. Feminists make good money (book deals, TV interviews, kick starter campaigns) off of playing the victim. So often they get people to send them fake rape threats or pretend that they got raped but then we find out they were lying. Society rewards women now for getting raped and for beating their husbands. Men have been completely neutered in this country

Oh boy. You sound like you feel like a victim.

Reasonable Jimmy...Worst character ever.

Double reasons cocksuckah

Jimmy needs to educate himself on the Gawker network and how they manipulate social issues to get a rise out of people. If someone explained what the goal of theirs was his opinion on them and her would change immediately.

I agree, Jimmy understands his world that he has created, and when venturing out he doesn't see things objectively. He lives by the golden rule, but when people's subjective values are not on par with his he doesn't know how to fight back effectively.

I like that any random chick who ends up on Jimmy's twitter because of all this bullshit is going to see practically nothing but Chip's vine videos.

double x chromosomes, bitch.

She's a cunt she's a cunt she's a cunt she's a cunt.
