That's not a parallel! Believing racist stereotypes, even "good" ones, Is still racist. It may not involve hating the other group, but it's not right. But not believing in some supposed tenet of feminism doesn't mean you are or aren't sexist...unless the tenet is "women are equal"?
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
So, there is this woman I know from college, and she is a very nice lady, but every day she posts about 10 pictures of dogs that are going to be put to sleep unless they are rescued. It makes me too sad, but I don't want to hide her because I am interested in the other stuff she posts. But I also don't want to cry at my desk every day about a poor dog in Texas who I can't help.

You should hide her.

Thrive to spite them
Sophia - yeah I was disappointed with the Facebook comments switch. I figure that was from his Overlords. And now I can't even see the number of comments so I have to click on each one. I don't know if that's just me.
I did notice the Overlords finally took the coupon out of the title.
Get Rich Slowly is a good personal fiance blog. JD Roth who runs GRS was smart to bring in other bloggers and he made a better deal when he sold GRS. Plus he's more honest about how selling the blog has given him financial freedom. Trent still posts (sometimes) about buying things that make it sound like his family is still struggling.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Is there a term for people who share that school of (not) thought?
I'm guessing a high level of correlation with conspiracy theorists. Ask if they believe in the moon landing.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Is there a term for people who share that school of (not) thought? Or, rather, what schools of (not) thought satisfy that criteria?
ignorant.

Oh Sean, that's an awful one-two sucker punch. Very sorry for your losses, and I hate that I had to use the plural there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Brilliant! Yeah, I'm gonna heckle these guys all day.

Also, vaccines, flouridation, JFK! BIGFOOT!
(I heard on a podcast this morning that apparently Mitt Romney is catching heat from cryptozoologists for referring to Bigfoot as a "hoax." So now I'm just waiting to see who is willing to pander to the BELIEVES IN BIGFOOT AND THINKS IT'S AN IMPORTANT CAMPAIGN ISSUE community.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Now I want to contribute to a pro-Bigfoot superPAC....
