listen this directly afterwards: ''I am a human being'', ''I deserve'', ''my rights'', ''you have no right'', ''this culture'', ''I am a good person'', ''I am noble''. What a idiot.

It's funny how he talks about culture and society in this video, although he denies the existence of culture in the comment section of the other video. Then he says, something along the lines - There is culture but it's only for the stupid people, those who take up everything into their system without choosing.
It's difficult for him, because he's a solipsist (don't know if he'd admit to that, I guess it depends whether or not he thinks it's intended as an insult), he thinks he's rational and logical, he thinks he's much more intelligent than the average, he has quite a high degree of autism from what I can see, and to arrange all that in one persona requires a lot of self-deception. He reminds me of someone here.

+OhFortunae Whatever our ancestgors did is irrelevant. We have now evolved as frugivores, we are not Neanderthals. And since we do not need to eat meat, how can we, with a clear conscience, continue taking lives from creatures that have as much right and desire to live as we do? Theyare someone to their families. They are someon'es child, brother, sister, mother, father, or friend.

+OhFortunae But the way see animals as food is also a construct - and we are taught to see them as something we can use consume or abuse, or profit from in some way. Our alienation from nature is making us destroy the planet - our life support system in space, and this is self -destructive. Who is to judge who is superior and should those judged as superior deserve better rights to live? Our believe in our supremacy over animals is speciesism and that is very mcuh the same as racism where humans constructed as a "superior race" has the right to enslave, imprison torture and abuse other races considered "Sub-human" - more constructs. You may use construction theory to distance yourself from the issue, but the fact remains that those of us who eat meat are complicit in the mass murder of other creatures. We are all Earthlings, and we are the caretakers of the Earth and all Earthlings. Have you seen the movie Earthlings?
She also denies the existence of biological gender differences; all is a social construct - except veganism.

Tragic...incredibly tragic. I have rarely listened to such suffering being spilled out in such a way. A truly devastating experience.
We need to write a poem about it.
I, personally, would have kept my mouth shut, after the first outburst, and laughed my ass off on my way home. Then, I would never go to a poetry class again.
What do you expect to find other than fags, delicate little girls who suffer so much, no the behalf of others, and pretentious gits? I would rather do my nails and wash my hair. Like...whateeever!!!

Poetry has become analogous with pussiness. Best produce music or draw as a way to be honest in this regard.
I actually disagree. I think that poetry is not about pussiness at all. I find that some men can write quite intelligent and heartfelt passionate poetry without being a pussy or being in the slightest bit feminine. Here are some examples;
I don't think of any of those poems as unmanly or even pussy.

This video is so rich, and hilarious. If you are interested in gathering data on modern expressions of leftism at the street level, this channel is excellent.
Apparently, http://www.campusreform.org/?ID=5612 explains one of the important reasons they were protesting the speaker at the event. He was a fellow anarchist named Kristian Williams. They protested because he made some statements suggesting that one is not always already a victim when something bad happens to them, and so in a mob like fashion they proceeded to bar him from speaking.
Quote :
"Williams’s controversial writing, “The Politics of Denunciation,” states that factions of feminism have made questions about sexual assault “off limits” because it has become widely accepted that the answer is always “whatever the survivor says it is.”
“Under this theory, the survivor, and the survivor alone, has the right to make demands … one obvious implication is that all allegations are treated as fact. And often, specific allegations are not even necessary” it reads. “It may be enough to characterize someone’s behavior … as ‘sexist,’ ‘misogynist,’ ‘patriarchal, ‘silencing,’ ‘triggering,’ unsafe,’ or ‘abusive.’”
