My first hidden post ever and it was for being misogynistic and sexist. [View all]

It's all in your head,Sea.

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

you're just being hysterical or possibly PMSing - UGH. This mysoginstic bullshit makes DU suck

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Mon Feb 17, 2014, 07:50 AM, and voted 4-2 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: More gender bashing and personal attack.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This post of Suffromich's is obviously sarcasm expressing support for Seabeyond's position. He also posted a similarly sarcastic supportive comment earlier in the thread:

"Why,oh why won't those feminists just shut up already?

Buzzkills,all of them. {dripping sarcasm.gif rolleyes.gif}"

Assuming this alert was in good faith, the alerter would do well not to alert in a kneejerk fashion without looking at the wider context in future, which does indeed make DU suck. If this post gets hidden because people take the alerter's word without looking further, it will be unfair.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I think surfommich was being sarcastic, actually. Soundman ACTUALLY called for banning 10-12 accounts at the start of this subthread (typical MRA-er, honestly. Whole Men's Group is full of them, and they're in this thread, started by one of them.)
MRA types do NOT actually debate issues: they try to belittle and force feminists off of the web. Like Soundman was proposing.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given



I'm going to take a wild guess here that the alerter knew it was sarcasm and went for it anyway,so congrats,alerter. Scooooooore!
