      I particularly dislike 'white, male rationalism', not because it insults white men but because it insults everyone else. It revives the old sexist, imperialist ideas that women & non-white men are irrational but now it reassures us that this is a good thing. Stop helping.https://twitter.com/EnlghtnmntLibrl/status/1003826339504275458 …

      I'm a "follower" of @SamHarrisOrg and Christopher Hitchens and I loathe the AltRight. As do most of the Harris & Hitchens fans I know. @ContraPoints is over-generalisng here to an almost bigoted extent. https://twitter.com/MeaningLifeTV/status/1002360142753648640 …

      And 'You criticise SocJus approaches because you don't experience social injustice' is just lazy. You need to look at *why* people who overwhelmingly support gender/racial/LGBT equality are criticising this particular approach to it.

          My benchmark for rational thought is air traffic control. See if anyone would try and dismiss the value of that there, from whichever group in society it comes. Should we have a new counter-hegemonic approach to air traffic control which rejects white male orthodoxies?

          We need some sort of universal 'bat shit crazy' signifier so that any loon can be encouraged to pause and reconsider when they've left the reservation.

          If the likes of Sam Harris and Hitchens are altright then by all means count me in 😂

          Contra not only fails to understand why SJWism is misguided, she is unaware than in attacking the alt right, she is attacking a symptom of or reaction to SJWism

          Do you watch her videos? She knows all of that basically more than anyone else on YouTube--the fact that many right-wing people think she understands their views and, for the most part, represents them faithfully in her videos is one of the main reasons for her popularity.

          Seen a number of her vids. Stands out for being intelligent, insightful and entertaining, but in the overall cultural discourse, still essentially apart of the problem
