The Confluence’s Un-Enlightened myiq2xu (aka meatprod4u)
Saturday the Confluence’s resident unapproachable male feminist and stellar slut-shamer myiq2xu republished some Rumproast comments in a scattered post titled “Un-Enlightened Obots” defending both Sarah Palin and the Daily Howler’s Bob Somerby, but neglected to link to our blog because it was a “biohazard.” I’ll return the favor by not linking to his blog post either and delivering an equally scattered post wherein I lay out some truly “hazardous” stuff a certain clown wrote about a young teenage girl not too long ago.
In the past myiq2xu has repeatedly referred to this blog, me, my co-bloggers (currently 3 out of 4 who are women), and its commenters as misogynistic and/or sexist. When he’s been called on a tasteless comment he wrote about PUMA women in March 2008 at Balloon Juice, he routinely dismisses it as a joke. Plausible, sure, but if myiq2xu gets a pass for that, why is it okay for him to repeatedly refer to Obama’s speechwriter Jon Favreau as sexist and a “groper” for one photograph of him that could easily be construed as “a joke” as well? I’ve looked and I’ve found zero evidence, aside from the photo where Favreau’s allegedly groping the breast (armpit?) of a cardboard cutout of Hillary, to indicate that he’s some raging male chauvinistic pig.
That said, I did find yet another example of myiq2xu behaving like a vulgar misogynist and, in this case, applying the “it was just a joke” defense is going to be virtually impossible. Less than two years ago Balloon Juice’s John Cole posted the much-snickered-about video of Miss Teen South Carolina Caitlin Upton severely bungling a response to a question about why so few Americans can find the U.S. on a world map. Here’s what myiq2xu, the shameless hypocrite who specializes in kneejerk branding of his opponents as misogynists and sexists, wrote about this innocent nineteen-year-old woman at the time:

Just stare at her boobs and don’t pay any attention to what she says. If she talks too much put something in her mouth.
She needs to marry a rocket scientist so her kids will be half-wits.
And then, believe it or not, it got worse:

Her reoccurring use of “such as” is a result of a dialog coach training her out of rampant use of the word “like”. They instruct kids to substitute “such as” for “like”. She must not have had this coaching trick for very long.
Do they use an electro-shock collar for this conditioning process?

They hit her in the back of the throat with the meat prod.
And even worse:
myiq2xu August 27th, 2007 at 5:05 pm
That training coach better have earned himself the pink slip for this one. If his job was to rid her of the “like”s, AND make her sound intelligent…well…uh…not so much.
The deficiency with the meat prod method is that the teacher has an obvious conflict of interest.
He then concludes with:
myiq2xu August 27th, 2007 at 5:14 pm
I discovered that if you turn the volume all the way down before playing the clip her performance improves dramatically.
I hope she won.
No additional commentary necessary, is there? myiq2xu, who shall henceforth be known as meatprod4u, is a fraud and a hypocrite and, even though I don’t run around the internet in a Tourette’s-like state calling myself a feminist, I’m damn sure I’m much more of one than he’ll ever be. Please remember this post the next time you see him referring to “blogstalkers,” Obots or anyone as sexist or Rumproast as an “overflowing commode of misogyny.” If we’re an overflowing commode, he’s an overburdened sewage treatment plant in dire need of repair.
