Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Mooh Date: 25 Apr 01 - 10:06 AM Hmmm...Once I received a rather vicious personal e-mail based on my espousal of the golden rule, more than once I think, here in Mudcatville, because it was overtly Christian. They also didn't like my signing of each post, "Peace"; perhaps I sound self-righteous. I still think it works (the golden rule that is), unless of course you want folks to beat the crap out of you (in a literal and figurative sense). In the case of which I write, it was assumed that I was anti-somethingoranother because I am pro-Christian. Huh? As long as I live I won't figure it out. I am pro-bicycle too, but I'm not anti-walking. You can get where you're going in more than one compatible fashion without trodding over another's methods, faith, or sensibilities. In the words of a much wiser man than Mooh, "Will you be my neighbour?". Peace. Mooh. |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Wavestar Date: 25 Apr 01 - 10:04 AM Troll, and Orac - Keep in mind (and DON'T point fingers at me and say I'm a rabid femenist because of this) that the tradtional male and white interests are still being explored and studied. Strangely, they fall under the category of wat we simply call 'studies' - as in, there is fememist literary criticism, black literary criticism, and then literary criticism. The last one covers what could be classified as 'white Anglo-saxon male dominated criticism' and always has. That's why there is frequently not felt to be a need for a specific study or interest group. I am not saying that this covers the interests of white men only, or even appropriately - but traditionally, it's sort of been their bailiwick, and there's been no need to attach "white studies" or "masculine criticism" to it. On the other subject- I'm white, at least in skin, and I don't see why I should be ashamed of it. I suspect there are African Americans (ex slaves) and likely also Native Americans in my heritage. I like that - but my skin is kind of pale pink. Okay, so as I child I always wanted a pretty brown, but I've learened to deal with what I've got. If you don't like it, that makes you a racist, not me. Oh, and Alex, You're a git. And a... a.. cream-faced loon. And a badger-backed ankle biter. No, seriously, you irritate me from time to time, and I don't agree with your attitude towards homosexuals, but you're a nice guy. I disagree with lots of people. -J |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Orac Date: 25 Apr 01 - 10:00 AM I would have thought that the changes in the roles of men and women were more brought about by two world wars than any of these organisations. If things are so great for men why are 70% of suicides men. Does the Dept for women's affairs have a separate one for black women.. or are all women the same regardless of colour? Does that mean there only a difference between white/black men? ... I'm still confused... |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: GUEST,Karen Date: 25 Apr 01 - 09:45 AM Oops! Sorry Alex, I forgot to insult you. Ummm...oh I know! Drop dead!!! :-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: GUEST,Karen Date: 25 Apr 01 - 09:44 AM You are certainly right, GaryT, about "minorities" being overlooked in studies but I tend to agree more with Orac. We've done so much to placate the "overlooked" we ourselves are being made to appear as "the bad guys". A "Black Pride" month would not get many people's ire up but a "White Pride" month sure as heck would. |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Troll Date: 25 Apr 01 - 09:44 AM One is as exclusionary as the other. No one says that there should not be Black or womens Studies but there are no White or Mens studies programs; in fact, it would seem that the very idea is ignored. Is everything there is to know about Whites or Men known? True, non-whites and females have been overlooked. Because they are now being given the chance to have their own departments of study so the scales will begin to come into balance, does this mean that Whites and men must be ignored until some mystical equilibrium is achieved? Is it OK to be proud of being Black but not of being White; of being female but not of being male? And, if it is OK, why is it OK? troll |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Gary T Date: 25 Apr 01 - 09:07 AM Well, a partial rebuttal. I'm all for taking reasonable pride in who you are, and not overreacting to those who do so. I would point out, however, that the reason we have things like an Institute for Black Studies and a Department of Women's Affairs, and don't have corresponding constructs for white studies and men's affairs, is that historically whites have been well studied and men's affairs well tended to, usually with the exclusion of blacks, women, etc. from consideration. The idea isn't that whites and males are being overlooked now, but that non-whites and females have been overlooked for centuries. |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Troll Date: 25 Apr 01 - 08:54 AM Thank you Orac. Well said. Rebutals anyone? troll |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Orac Date: 25 Apr 01 - 05:52 AM I'm baffled by all of this. Why is it ok to be proud to be black but not to be proud to be white. Why isn't it ok to be happy to be the way you are. There are organisations such as The Instutute for Black Studies ... if there were and Instute for White studies there would be uproar. In England there is a government dept for womens affairs... nothing for men of course... if there were it would be sexist. There are many who are proud (quite rightly) of their black origins.. black culture.. black music.... as soon as some poor sod says he's proud of being the opposite.. he's a racist bastard who should have been hanged, drawn and quartered before conception. I really think you should examine your own motives before you say anything here. |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: CarolC Date: 25 Apr 01 - 03:54 AM Some of the discussion on this thread and on the other threads that have been refered to here surprise me a little bit. I know mousethief has categorised himself as a 'white male' in his Mudcat profile.
But the accusations that he is a white supremacist or anything of the sort seem a little bizarre when you consider that he has stated in the forum that he is part American Indian. White supremacists don't do that, do they? Carol |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Blackcatter Date: 25 Apr 01 - 12:48 AM First of all GUEST - At least make up a fake nae when debating me - It's just so impersonal otherwise. Beyond that - let me restate is I might. There are people who will not allow any debate on certain subjects - these are the people I thought were having a problem with Mousethief. As far as I'm concerned there is no subject that cannot be talked about and Mousethief was right - the average American who sort of goes through life without really looking around and investigating things probably thinks that the Jews were the only ones who were exterminated.

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Peg Date: 25 Apr 01 - 12:38 AM This strikes me as self-indulgent... oh, and Alex, YOU hjacked at least one thread to attack ME rather recently...so for you to accuse another of doing this to you seems hypocritical. There, happy?

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Troll Date: 24 Apr 01 - 11:50 PM Racism is defined as the belief that ones own race is superior and has the right to rule other races. I've never seen Mousethief claim anything of the sort. That said, he is a totally obnoxious and sorry excuse for an inhabitant of the Left Coast, never mind somewhere inhabited by ladies and gentlemen of refinment and sensibility. His purile and inane postings lead me to the inescapable conclusion that he doesn't have enough brains to keep his scalp inflated and that he- in all likelyhood-wears black socks with brown shoes if indeed he wears socks at all. These are the best of his bad points. He has no good ones. troll |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Gary T Date: 24 Apr 01 - 11:32 PM Ah, hell, I feel testy tonight. LEARN TO READ, folks.
"white by birth and not ashamed of it" There's quite a difference between not being ashamed of who you are and proud proclamations. Stating or insinuating that Alex is a racist takes an extraordinary degree of misinterpretation and failure to see the forest for the trees. |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: GUEST Date: 24 Apr 01 - 10:01 PM Blackcatter, You said, "I ended up sort of agreeing with you on the Yom Ha'shoah - mostly because it didn't seem that you were saying anything horrible - just not expressing yourself in a way that wouldn't enflame those for whom the issue was REALLY SERIOUS." Let me try and understand what you're saying. Mousethief's statements about Yom Ha'shoah didn't "seem terrible" but he said them in a a way that would "enflame those for whom the issue was REALLY SERIOUS." WOH! I'm not Jewish, but the Nazi Genocide of the Jews is a really serious issue for me, as I would hope it would be for any decent human being. Count me enflamed.

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Blackcatter Date: 24 Apr 01 - 09:01 PM First of all: Like Kendall you pissed me off a while back too - but I forget why but I believe we sort of came to an agreement and I certainly don't hold grudges (they tickle my webbed fingers). Part B: Somehow I ended up sort of agreeing with you on the Yom Ha'shoah - mostly because it didn't seem that you were saying anything horrible - just not expressing yourself in a way that wouldn't enflame those for whom the issue was REALLY SERIOUS. Section iii: ummm . . . Area 54: Mollificent - happy birthday! It is my birthday as well! Rule # 6 - There is naaaaaahhh Rule # 6 Lucky 7, Lucky 7! - Mousethief: To stay on topic - I shall fart in your general direction! (this probably all has something to do with a Blackcatter and a Mousethief having something in common - though I have to admit after my trip to Peru I have a fondness for Guinea Pigs . . .) pax yall |

Subject: RE: BS: Attack Mousethief Here From: Little Hawk Date: 24 Apr 01 - 07:38 PM Ohhhhhh BOY!!! Mousethief!!! You are a vile, unprincipled, seditious son of a sea cook with the face of a pig and the sensibilities of a Sicilian pimp! You are as depraved as a botany bay moneylender. The sun won't shine where you walk, nor will the lilies grow there. Your statements are unconscionable, your attributes puerile, and your taste in dinnerware is absymal. Sorry, I meant abysmal. Absymality is actually beyond one of your limited IQ. Did I mention that your haircut really sucks? Oh, and then there's your taste in clothing...I must remind you that ties with flourescent Elvises on them are no longer in style, not even in Seattle. However, it is these very qualities that help to make you one of my favourite comrades on Mudcat...keep up the good work I say! :-) - LH p.s. Anyone can be held up as a racist, an anti-semite, or any other handy label like that...if you very carefully comb through every word he or she has ever written or uttered...and quote it out of context. This, by the way, is how the Nazis, other racists, and genocidal maniacs like the conquistadors used the Bible to justify their own depredations on humanity. They simply picked out a handy few words or passages, out of context, and away they went. Any asshole with a chip on his shoulder can do it to anyone else he chooses with the greatest of ease. |
