If your feminism is about every one and every fucking issue men have then it is worthless.

Women’s worth is based on how much work she does for men.

Spotify Yanks Multiple Alex Jones Podcast Episodes for Violating Hate-Speech Policy

justinspoliticalcorner:

Todd Spangler at Variety: 

Spotify has deleted several episodes of the podcast hosted by far-right agitator Alex Jones, the controversial founder of the Infowars conspiracy-theory site. The streaming service cited Jones’ violations of its policy banning hate speech.

“We take reports of hate content seriously and review any podcast episode or song that is flagged by our community,” a spokeswoman said in an email. “Spotify can confirm it has removed specific episodes of ‘The Alex Jones Show’ podcast for violating our hate content policy.” The company did not provide details about the alleged hate speech in the Jones podcasts that were removed, an action it took after many Spotify users complained about them.

News of Spotify’s removal of the offending Jones podcast episodes was first posted by New York Times reporter Ben Sisario in a tweet Wednesday.

Spotify continues to offer dozens of episode of Jones’ podcast on the service, dating back to at least June 2017.

Jones — who has perpetuated such myths as asserting that the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School gun massacre was a hoax — has come under increasing scrutiny in recent weeks by big tech platforms. Jones and the Infowars’ brand of fear-based rhetoric targeting immigrants, LGBT people, women and other groups have become a high-profile test case for what internet-content platforms will allow and what they will block.

Most Effective Way to End to Verbal Abuse

lavenderpsysoc:

The most instinctive way to respond to a verbal abuser is to attempt to reason with him or her. 

When a person negatively defines you as a liar or child, your natural reaction is to attempt to convince the abuser why their labels are mistaken. 

In doing so, you’re expecting the abuser to be a normal adversary, someone who will listen to reasons and arguments. 

But the fact is that you cannot reason with a verbal abuser.

The only effective way to put an end to verbal abuse is to call out the abuser each time they strike. 

If someone blames you for something you have no control over, you need to ignore the actual content of what’s been said, identify the type of abuse employed, name it, and calmly ask the abuser to stop it.

Let’s say that your friend blames you for leaving too late and ending up in unexpected traffic.

Instead of attempting to convince your friend that you could not have anticipated the unexpected traffic, it’s more effective to firmly state, “Stop blaming me for something I have no control over.”

Or let’s say that someone is using a label such as “child” or “liar” to define you. 

Trying to convince them that you are not a child or a liar is not going to have any effect. Firmly stating, “Stop using negative labels to define me,” or simply, “Stop the name-calling,” is more powerful.
