SJWs Pressure Advertising Watchdog to Censor “Idealised” Images Of Pretty Women

[Sci Fi Samurai]

I do have to wonder how insecure you have to be to see a good-looking person and think, "I need to raise a fuss over this!!!"

I wonder about this, myself. The majority of people in my own life see things like this and move on. It doesn't impact them at all.

But, the ones who do are either coming from somewhere bitter, angry, and insecure, or looking for a cheap excuse to moralize and preach. It's people who are seeking to change the world around them rather than change themselves, or people looking for that quick shot in the arm of righteous fury. Both are fulfilling an emotional need, and in typical SJW fashion, pruning things from the world that are emotionally inconvenient is par for the course.

I can see why coloring books for adults are a thing now.

Also lol at "technically yes but not really". Newspeak at it finest.

Lot of problems here; first the reportage is biased and poorly written. That is hugely problematic.

Also I think this story is actually old despite the date on the website of the article. I recall almost the exact same story almost a year ago about this protein drink around spring/summer last year.

That advert could still be sexist without being related to the appearance of the model physically. My memory is foggy on the details, but the initial reportage of this story had a group objecting on the ground of sexism. Rather than the actual look of the model(s). So there is again, some shifty reportage here.

Also, they could do whatever they want really- the protein drink company. What sells is what they will decide on ultimately.

The Guardian is famous for spelling/grammatical errors, and poor writing - and they're just as biased as Breitbart in the other direction

Sometimes I think the articles for all these clickbait sites will soon be written by vaguely literate algorithms, and we won't even notice it

while he is a SJW i don't think the mods put topics like this on the do not post list because of "feelings"

they were just sick of all the drama SJW's cause and don't want to put up with it anymore

Of course they do it because of their feelings... Every topic would be open if it weren't for the feelings of themselves and others.

Most of the mods are SJWs, btw.

they realized that if they put "sjw" and "women" in the same sentence they could get 50 pg threads, i mean lots of clicks.

The girl in yellow bikini looks familiar. Think this is an old story

[Kraenen]

Those pictures are all racist because they feature white people changing their skin colour to look better.

This is the new bit:

The regulator now appears ready to officially change their stance on the matter, and depending on the conclusion of their investigation all attractive women on ads could soon be deemed to cause “offence” and “harm” and be censored.

If it wasn't bad it would not be forbidden.
It's petitio principii, but argumentum ad legislation should become a thing anyway.

Every time you are suppressed in communication or sharing information it's censorship.
And most of the time that is perfectly fine because most things aren't allowed for a good reason.

I don't think I'll ever understand why someone can be FOR censorship...

I'm wondering if you'd be pro-censorship if your ideology was targeted with the censoring. The tools you use to suppress others today will be the tools that suppress you tomorrow.

[Strangebrew]

Censorship is the suppression of speech, public communication or other information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient as determined by governments, media outlets, authorities or other groups or institutions.

So while technically it's called "censorship" it really isn't, it are just regulations on advertisement.


Yeah, it started so good with that http://www.
But then it continued with breitbart.com and all quality was already out of the window.

Glad to see you are here to show us how cancerous feminism/sjw's are.

Pro censorship, ban everything that hurts my feely feels.

Laws against child porn are also censorship.
So my point is proven: Not all censorship is bad.

Moving the goalposts/changing your argument and declaring yourself the victor. Nice try, but you didn't claim "not all censorship is bad". You claimed "There is nothing wrong with censorship". This is demonstrably false however you choose to slice it; just visit China or North Korea.

Not that it matters because then you chose to redefine censorship anyway lmao. "This isn't censorship, this is just advertising standards". Oh OK. So child porn laws aren't censorship either, they're just protections afforded to minors. I'm sure you'll agree then that censorship is bad.

Yes, everyone. Unless you're ok with divulging troop movements in war time and disclosing nuclear codes.

For a guy with a "nice list of logical fallacies" in your sig, you sure do use a lot of them huh. Might wanna have another look at that list.

Fuck, why am I even responding? As if I'm going to get anything but intellectual dishonesty here. I'm out.

The important part is you crafted a well reasoned response to my post. Well done sir.

OP, you seem to get triggered by feminists many times a day.

[Rukh]

I find social justice warriors like xarim who spend all their time trying to fight perceived social injustices online to be tiresome.

Thanks for the ad hominems, way to go

EDIT: I take it back, they were pretty weak

[Wells]

Neither are ad hominems, but you do find "SJW" derogatory yes?

[nextormento]

Circular rhetoric:
If only we could stop talking about race, racism would be gone; those fighting racism are the true racists.
Equality movements only want more privileges.
Stop being so intolerant of my intolerance!.
Anti-sjw surely get triggered easily.

I know some people are desperate to turn the sjw label, and the trigerdoms around over against their critics.
The co-option is not working, folks. It never did.
