Enlightened individual who has risen above politics and thinks complaining about the SJWs is cringe has to ask this question

@matrix He's a sceptic. They are all about questioning things in a way that it only ever benefits the left.
@rasterman @matrix Reminds me of the anti-Aslan Dwarfs in the last Narnia book. They supposedly rejected all major factions and only took their own side, but all their actions ended up harming the good guys far more than the villains. And they literally were depicted as the Skeptics of that world!
@ChristiJunior @matrix Never read it, but sounds based if the sceptics were leaning towards villainy.
@rasterman @matrix CS Lewis seemed pretty rightwing, besides being a conservative Christian - one of the earlier Narnia books mocked progressive parenting, and definitely seemed to advocate corporal punishment as the proper way of dealing with rude brats.

@rasterman
The label "skeptic" was always dumb. No wonder it was given by feminists.

@matrix @rasterman I’d rather refer to them as “critics” instead. Describes them better.

@camedei456 @matrix @rasterman A good number of the ones with brainpower and academic skills style themselves as "social critics"
@matrix @rasterman idk, arguably the "alt light" and aspects of NRx came from the skeptic / atheist movement. being a skeptic isn't left or right, it's just about having more depth of thought about things. call it autism or intellectualism but it's not usually bad to be a critical thinker.

@fuck
I agree but that label was purely given because they criticized feminism
@rasterman

@matrix @rasterman im of the opinion that the institution of idpol & its university enablers are basically replacing christianity and its church enablers. if you look at SJWism like a cult, a lot of its structure / tactics make a lot of sense
@matrix @rasterman im kinda a zen lefty, i dont give a fuck how big your tits are or what color your skin is. if you got retard opinions, you got retard opinions
@matrix @rasterman
>"Skeptics"
>Agree with opinions all the time

What's the point of being a skeptic if you're just going to agree with people :backfromgab:
@zemichi @matrix You could also ask why do you say you FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE and then talk about anti-scientific leftist ideology. :shrug_kon:
@matrix Was it? I didn't know that. By the time I began to pay attention to those circles, the term was already established. It had centrist intellectuals such as Sargon, Chris Ray Gun, Andy Warski, Some Black Guy, Bunty King, Shoe0nHead and other such luminaries... :pepedisappoint:
