I am going to say something very different from the rest of the folks because they are wrong.

Do I think you're over-reacting? Yes. And that's bad.

Now before you tune out, let me explain what I mean. tell you what it is really like because I'm an expert.

I do NOT mean he's not being a creep. I don't even mean you shouldn't dump him. I

Personally, I cannot handle victim blaming any longer. The crap he spewed in comments to you makes me rage. This is my cue to stop reading that comment thread, lest I get truly and honestly upset by stupid internet garbage.

What the fuck is wrong with people.

[cuddlycthulhu]

You're asking the wrong person that unfortunately.

[opalnipotent]

OH GOD I MISSED THE TEACHING CLASSES PART.

I think I am going to go throw up now.

Not literally. But in my soul.

[cuddlycthulhu]

You have to wonder how many people he's fucked up with that victim blaming bullshit.

[miss_lisa_ma]

Oh, thank you, THANK YOU, cuddly elder god. That made me smile.

[pierceheart]

Oh great, there goes the neghbourhood - now your tentacles are going to swell.

[cuddlycthulhu]

Me I hope not, how will I ever get my tutlenecks over them?!

Reading this post (without checking the source) I was thinking "gosh, this sounds like the kind of mind games I'd expect from this one guy..."

And hey, I was right! Okay, the spurious poly counselor creds narrowed the field... but only a little!

Gods, talk about glass houses.

[cuddlycthulhu]

Seriously. Anyone who has to tout their credentials like a shield against criticism proves how much not an expert they are.

[cuddlycthulhu]

Nice.

What the hell ass does "reactive" even MEAN here??

Gah.

[maestrodog]

He keeps saying that word. I do not think it means what he thinks it means...

[friend_of_tofu]

What the hell does "irregardless" men?

[vettorre]

If you're serious and this wasn't sarcastic.... Because I looked this up once to prove a point!...

Irregardless was popularized as being legit by a 1930s radio host who liked to say it. He meant "regardless" but other ir- words were also popular among radio show hosts, so irregardless fit in with the vernacular of the time.

If you already knew this and I'm offering up common knowledge, I am sorry.... It's just one of those "Hey! I know that answer! -fervently triple checks for sarcasm-" So if I am fail here... again sorry.

What is this impact training crap? I go to a class, and now, if I'm sexually assaulted, it is magically my fault? AND THAT'S EMPOWERING?

What the hell!!!

[dangerpudding]

I'm pretty sure that if the people who offer the classes he's speaking of saw him stating that, they'd be horrified. It's a guess, I'm not associated with them directly and haven't taken the class, but...

[opalnipotent]

If he hadn't deleted his comments, I would finally comment at that point.

Trying to take power and feel better and more secure that you will not be a victim by making it a victim's fault. So common. So rage inducing.

Also, I am surprised that no one linked him to Derailing For Dummies.
