these dumbster sjws are nothing but a waste of time.

 

it is too late. the fuckening has begun in Europe and Asia.

 

imagine if they actually changed their adress to gearcuntz just to annoy those crybabies

 

The evolution of spoken word in germany:
A few years ago: Bürgermeister (for men) Bürgermeisterin (for women)
Today: Bürger*innenmeister*in [m/w/d] (and yes, the letters in parentheses are also pronounced)

Sometimes when i listen to people having conversations these days, it sounds to me like they're having a stroke.

 

First of all I'm laughing my ass off with some comments

Of all the Political/Social-Correctness ideas I've seen this is not one of the worst. If this were done with moderation it'd be good. At least here we can make a case.

The problem is many people almost whishing to be offended by many actually useful and neutral words and expressions.
We're not creatures of the light, just over-intelligent mammals.
Why just don't we accept how we really are. Including some uncomfortable but human things that won't go away but get worse if we can't talk about and try to improve from that.

 

If you don't like the name gearslutz you can always go to the muffwiggler forums to talk about synths.

Certain number of people find that kind of shit juvenile or off putting.

Certain number of people can't handle the fact that certain number of find that kind of shit juvenile or even off putting.

People knee jerking about anyone questioning this kind of weirdly prevalent language in the audio community are usually the most fragile little outrage pussies of all. Like OP who apparently saw something about an obscure few hour old petition on twitter and felt the urge to spread and share his/her outrage.

Nice quib.

 

I mainly agree with you but the OP didn't seem outraged to me. Can't talk about others others though

 

I vote we change this forums name to "Auditory Intercorse"

Stop Sexualization of Audio

 

This forum needs to pass a motion demanding that you immediately stop censoring your overdressed avatar
Maybe just a chant - OFF OFF OFF OFF

 

wot? GearTwatz offensive? I very much think not...

no, wait a minute...

Oh, the name not the contribs... I see.
Then no, not offended.

 

Spot on

 

This snide brand of divisive, coercive thought control - badged as 'necessary' corrective social progress no less - typifies the profoundly limited & lopsided worldview of triggered, petit-bourgeois 'activists' who believe that by simply removing 'bad' language they can thus promulgate the founding of an enlightened, fair society - an infantile perspective at best. That these feeble-minded SJW's are actually doing the work of the neoliberal NWO is entirely lost on them regrettably.
Democracy is dead. Thank God for Twitter!

 

Jesus, why can't people just agree that this kind of political correctness is ridiculous without starting to spew conspiracy theories and populist slogans? It wasn't so long ago that conservatives were at the helm of this kind of censorship. I for one am disgusted by both sides of this issue.

 

Hmm... i realise now that my previous post could be misconstrued as some kind of pro-right, pro-trump statement. Actually i was commenting purely from what i consider to be a proper left/marxist/socialist perspective... apologies to all for any confusion. I'll just fetch my coat...

 

This is the state of Political Correctness in 2021:

- "slut" has feminine connotations
- we should call it gearwhores

 

it took some time (because English isn't my first or even second language) but I understand you alright.
