STORM LAKE, Iowa -- Some people just don't get that their actions can have major consequences. Case in point, the pseudo-feminist named Kyle Payne. From Ren:
"As I mentioned previously, I have faced a great deal of criticism through the internet. Since November 2007, I have maintained a personal blog through wordpress.com entitled “The Road LessTraveled” (kylepayne. wordpress.com). Through this blog, I have spoken out in support of feminism and other social justice movements, particularly against different forms of violence (e.g. physical,sexual, military). In the days following my guilty plea, a pro-pornography blogger picked up the story, and having identified obvious discrepancies between the “public face” on my blog and my criminal actions, began an online smear campaign. This effort, which has garnered support from over fifty prominent bloggers from around the world, as well as at least one official trade publication of the pornography industry, has raised considerable public attention toward my actions, and it has alerted me to the larger political consequences of those actions. While many of the criticisms online are based on inaccurate or incomplete information about my case, the feelings and concerns behind them are highly appropriate."
We are smearing you, Mr. Payne? That is a heap of bullshit. Not to mention laughable. Listen, Mr. Asshole Payne. You touched that woman against HER will. You videotaped that woman against HER will. You raped that woman. You violated that woman. Just like that. Period. Game over.
You did this to yourself, Mr. Payne. You were the one who preyed on that woman. It is your fault. And you are the offender.
Now, Mr. Payne, when are you gonna quit whining and take responsiblity for your actions? Women don't need pseudo-allies like you. In fact, you no longer have a place in feminist circles, no longer have a place anywhere where victimized females may be, no longer have a place speaking for or with us, you knucklehead. Can't you take a hint? Every type of feminist -- from sex-positives like Ren to radicals like Debs from the Burning Times 1645 -- hammered you over this.
Your whole post is pathetic, Mr. Payne. What about her? Do you mention your victim in your self-serving sideshow of a post? What a moron. Women don't exist for you. The last thing women or the feminist movement need is YOU, Mr. Payne.
Go away at once, Mr. Payne.
