Generalizations "all" "none" "black" "white" statements show ignorance towards a topic that's opinion vs evidence based. Bias on experience

Except nobody said that. This is a textbook definition of "strawman fallacy."

Saturday night Imgur is a sad, pathetic place.

Its true, though a more correct statement would be ALL people are sexist.

Here I fixed your title:. I think that *fifty thousand other guys who reposted this meme* were on to something

Just getting the word around
BushelOfLabeouf
Good job, neckbeard, you ended sexism. Want a cookie?
aLxO
I was subbing at a HS and a wannabe SJW literally told a boy that women couldn't be sexist. That she'd done research online. WTF.

Op, you're a little bitch.

We have so much more problems than taking everything personally

Funny, I see the college women that say that are the same ones that have there parents pay for everything
TuityFrooty
Really? You know a single person who says this?

Nobody asked for frooty tuity

Stop mansplaining, you sexist racist homophobic islamophobic transphobic misogynist bigot.

People who post stuff like this have clearly never had an intellectual conversation with feminists in real life. Or women in general

What if its a man who says it?
KeoniUnderscore
Its not the person that makes it sexist, its the thing that is said that does.
TheLowKing
I actually meant because then it would be a self proving statement, I thought it was funny.
itsatoughshittydingo
Then he's not a man. Men would never make such a blanket statement.
Strostkovy
I assume this is a joke. Please clarify for your +/- 1

Got talk to your mom about it.

haha its funny because imgur is the male tumblr. Enjoy the front page!!!!

This original thought must be shared with the people!

I think he was referring to ops post not his comment guys

I was, thanks for noticing. Didn't feel worth salvaging but I appreciate you.

I'm touched, usersub. In the head and the heart.
DrJamesBod
Have I been living under a rock? I've actually never heard anyone say this to me, except read on the internet in memes like this one
ForrestIndustries
You should spend some time on tumblr, while I haven't heard anyone say it in person it's fairly common there.
sykoticflaw
I've met two people in my life who have said this out loud. One was a troll, the other lived in a fantasy world.
TOTOAFRICA
I had a really PC sociology professor that said crazy shit like that

I have sadly. Most was in college but a few outside do exist...it's just easy to miss them because you avoid stupid.

sadly....I have heard this on more than on occasion in real life. Generally when the speaker was in an agitated state of mind

It's usually "all men are pigs"

And if "all women are bitches", then there has been a lot of cross-species breeding going on ....

It's a small very vocal minority that has a big presence online but in real life not so much.
SardonicGrin
Back in the 90s I worked for a holiday inn convention center booking conventions. One group was called "Men are Pigs".
rubbarz
Either you have never been to college or you havent been in a while.
TheGuardianFox
It's almost as though you could have had a different experience than all these people downvoting you. But nah, that's just too crazy.
rubbarz
shit i forgot I have to live the exact way as others did on here. lol its just fake internet points anyways, its all good.
AstralMarmot
No, it's just that strawmen are easier to sustain in meme format than IRL.
MagicAndDuctTape
Strawperson, please.

Are you strawmansplaining at me?

Best thing I read all week, thank you!

On a serious note, you're trying to argue against religious belief using logic. If that were possible, there wouldn't be any more religion.
TheImperiumOfMan104
There are no more arguments. Only helicopters now.
aflarge
Okay since apparently people don't see the connection, modern Social Justice operates with EXACTLY the same mechanisms as a religion.
aflarge
They've got faith based beliefs, inquisitors, authoritarian principles, and they've even got their own version of original sin.
aflarge
Or, at the very least, religion would be DRASTICALLY different to how it is, presently.
ImHereForTheCera123MeltSteelBeams

aflarge
If someone values faith over logic and proof, you'll never convince them to put logic or proof before faith.
aflarge
And when religion isn't faith-based, it's not religion, it's just philosophy(which isn't a bad thing)

Where are you getting all this from?
BluBoxx
@OP when someone says "all X are "sexist / racist" they are typically using the academic definition of _____ism, which is defined as 1/
BluBoxx
Including both prejudice AND institutional power structures to entice that prejudice widely within a given society. Under that context 2/
BluBoxx
All "men" benefit from and are a part of an institutionalized system that disadvantages women. That's where that claim "all X are ____ist" 3
BluBoxx
Comes from. Its NOT saying all men are personally prejudiced against women, but that they are part of an institutional system that is 4/4
RosegoldEverything
Luckily, there is no institutionalized power over a difference sex or race.
Yoloswagforjesus
This is a total load of shit.
BluBoxx
You're entitled to your opinion, but that's how it is. It's talking about an issue from an academic POV and it being received colloquially
Yoloswagforjesus
I suppose you support the idea that all white people must be racist because our institutions cater to whites and not minorities?
BluBoxx
If you're looking at the US and using the academic definition they are. But you're conflating jargon with colloquialism. The former 1/

And in somewhere like China it wouldn't be Caucasians who benefitted from institutional racism 4/4
DisgruntledFerret
Poe's Law dictates that I can't actually tell if you're being serious with those mental gymnastics that justify one type of sexism.
BluBoxx
What mental gymnastics? It's just a misunderstanding of academic jargon versus common colloquialism that I've explained.
