JudgyBitch: I’d support nuking Mecca if I thought it would be “effective” against Islam

Andrea Hardie explains "The Danger of Empathy" in a YouTube vieo

Andrea Hardie, aka Janet Bloomfield, aka JudgyBitch, explains “The Danger of Empathy” in a YouTube video

In the midst of a rambling blog post arguing that a large terrorist attack on American soil before November “puts Trump in the White House for certain,” former Twitter activist Andrea Hardie makes a rather startling pronouncement: She would support nuking Mecca if she thought it would be an “effective” way to strike a blow against Islam. 

No, really:

I don’t think Trump will nuke Mecca or anywhere else, for the simple reason that it won’t be effective. Nuking Hiroshima and Nagasaki saved millions of lives and ended the war decisively, because it brought Japan to its knees. Nuking Mecca won’t bring the Islamic world to its knees – quite the opposite. Trump isn’t going to do it for that reason. If nuking Mecca stood a chance of being effective, I’d be fully in support of the measure.

Emphasis mine.

In addition to being the birthplace of Muhammad and the most sacred city for the world’s 1.57 billion Muslims, Mecca is home to roughly two million residents, and the number of people in the city “more than triple[s] every year during the hajj (“pilgrimage”) period,” as Wikipedia notes.

In other words, Ms. Hardie, better known on the Internet under her pseudonyms Janet Bloomfield and JudgyBitch, would support the murder of as many as six million people of a particular religious persuasion if she thought it would be an effective way to rid the world of that religion.

Six million, where have I heard that number before?

Despite being permabanned from Twitter, Hardie is still listed on A Voice for Men as the site’s “Director [of] Social Media,” and she was one of the speakers at last month’s International Conference on Men’s Issues in London, organized by AVFM and Mike Buchanan of the UK’s spectacularly unsuccessful Justice for Men and Boys party.

I’m not quite sure how murdering three million Muslim men and boys — in addition to another three million women and girls — would enhance the rights of men, or boys, or anyone.

    The thought of Mio being forced to enter the Soviet army fills me with some kind of low-burning, deep rage for some reason.

    On the other hand, since she’s in essence a genderswapped Paul McCartney, she may already have been back in the USSR, so the rage is counteracted by irony.

    Hiya, I’m Axe!

    I’m liberal and non-xenophobic, by the way

    If ya hafta say that, something probably went horrifically wrong in the rest of the comment. I mean, the whole post is mildly suspect

    For example, any statement about “Muslims as a group” is almost assuredly wrong or at least too simplistic. Religious Muslims, ethnic Muslims, western Muslims, 1st generation, Muslims that were ‘born here’, old, young, Shia, Sunni, etc

    Now, ironically given that last bit, I’d also argue that Muslims don’t “have values that fall much closer to those of western conservatives than liberals”. See, the number 1 value Muslims have is that they’re actual people. Human beings, ya know? So long as “western conservatives” keep acting to the contrary, western Muslims and “liberals” have more in common

    Other than that, welcome aboard

When that picture first appeared a lot of media articles were published saying “Hey Boris, here’s how you use a capo.” but he just didn’t seem to give a fuck. He just went on about his glorious business of doing whatever the hell it is that he was doing to that guitar.

    It wasn’t my intention to pigeonhole Muslims or imply that they weren’t people. Maybe my statement would’ve been better phrased as “Muslim culture is largely PORTRAYED as more conservative than the rest of the Western world, which is the standard by which many people judge them.” That isn’t to say that it’s a good thing, just an explanation for how liberals and conservatives approach the faith. I’m sorry if I offended anyone.

    @Jenora Feuer You’re right that the Apollo-Soyuz link up was amazing. Even just designing the docking module was an amazing feat. Alexy Leonov is awesome. This past April 25 he spoke at the unveiling of a new monument in Moscow to the meeting at Torgau on the Elbe. Most of the principals are long dead; Polowosky of course, Gardiev, but I think William Robertson is alive in his late 90s, though Alexander Shilvashko (from the famous photo) is passed away I think. I’d love to know the identity of some of the Red Army women in the more famous photos. They’ve tracked down even some individual enlisted guys identities, good grief.

    @Jenora Feuer
    Buran was not the only component, nor was it really the most important. Its launch vehicle, Energia, could deploy payloads into orbit without the use of the spaceplane. Its particular configuration also meant the engines were non-reusable, though the kerosene fueled boosters and their extraordinarily powerful engines live on in the Atlas V and Zenit launch vehicles. The main stage also represented one of the few cryogenic rockets ever worked on in Russia.

    Yet Energia’s first launch didn’t even involve Buran at all. Its first payload was an orbital Anti-Satellite platform: Polyus. Armed with, I kid you not, a functional laser for destroying potential SDI anti-ballistic missile satellites and an autocannon to shoot down other anti-satellite weapons. Polyus was fitted on a propulsion module developed for another series of spacecraft and mounted on to its Energia carrier upside down, encased in a rather sinister black shroud confusingly labeled both Polyus and Mir-2. As luck would have it, Polys decided it wanted to be a submarine instead of a spacecraft on launch day and flipped 360 degrees instead of 180 degrees as originally intended to make a fateful burn towards the Pacific Ocean (something it was not designed to do). Polyus’ presence in orbit would’ve complicated things, to say the least.

    In any event, the real reason I am here (because orbital death lasers are insufficient reason to stop lurking): Valentina Tereshkova’s contribution to the Soviet spaceflight was itself symptomatic of Soviet era sexism than a real attempt to live up to the egalitarian ideals of communism. I think it’s very important to keep in mind that she was chosen specifically for her background as a good communist woman (because it was important to show those capitalist Yankee dogs that Soviet women were also capable of surviving in space!) and her noted experience as a recreational parachutist (the latter being quite important given that cosmonauts didn’t land inside the parachute-less Vostok spacecraft unless they wanted to end up as chunky salsa inside their suits). She was not expected or even trained to do much and in fact found her three days in space physically unpleasant. Her predicament would be later echoed by the various, “guest cosmonauts” of the Interkosmos program who were also not expected to do anything besides fill up the second seat on Soyuz spacecraft and not touch anything. While Khrushchev fell out of favor, his use of the Soviet space program for improving the nation’s image lived on.

    James Oberg’s, “Red Star In Orbit” while old, does give a decent enough and fairly accurate summary of Valentina Tereshkova’s stint into space alongside a greater history of the Soviet space program up to Salyut 6. An extended passage from the book discussing Tereshkova’s mission is also hosted on Oberg’s website as its preview.

    Anyway: The next female cosmonaut, Svetlana Savitskaya, cosmonaut did not fly into space until 1982. Her achievements remain sadly obscure to most of the world at large. Aside from having completed two missions, her later 1984 mission to Salyut 7 saw her become the first woman in history to conduct an EVA and also complete a set of tests during said EVA that evaluated the performance of metal cutting and welding in a hard vacuum. So, yeah: She was the first welder in space. Ten years later, Yelena Kondakova would later complete an extended stay onboard Mir.

    Yet since Kondakova, there’s been only one other female cosmonaut: Yelena Serova, who was on board the International Space Station for nearly six months as part of Expeditions 41 and 42 in 2014. She attracted rather, ah, unwanted media attention: Members of the local press were more interested in her hair and makeup than her cell cultivation experiments and background as an engineer and economist. Predictably, she was visibly irritated during the pre-launch press conference after being asked about her hairstyle one too many times when that really isn’t what she spent years of training and education for. I’m sure a certain judgy someone being discussed here might also take serious offense to the fact that Serova also has a daughter and husband.

    It really is tragic that the Soviet and Russian space programs don’t get much positive attention beyond Sputnik and Vostok 1 (though some of the failures ala the aborted Soviet Moonshot from which the Soyuz spacecraft was derived are also quite interesting), but it is very nice to see people show a sincere interest the program as a whole and interest in the small but pioneering women cosmonauts.

    Obviously counter factuals can only be approximate but most historians agree that had Operation Downfall been necessary that would have cost hundreds of thousands of allied lives and perhaps millions of Japanese lives had the fighting followed the pattern to date. – Alan Robertshaw

    There is no real possibility that the invasion of Japan (“Operation Downfall”) would have been necessary. Having lost Malaya and the then Dutch East Indies, Japan had no access to supplies of tin, rubber or oil. It could not have maintained an industrial economy, let alone continued the war, for more than a few months. I recommend, to you and to Pavlov’s House, Gar Alperovitz’s Atomic Diplomacy: Hiroshima and Potsdam – The Use of the Atomic Bomb and the American Confrontation with Soviet Power. Both Stalin and Truman (and Churchill) were focused on the post-war balance of power long before the bombing of Hiroshima and the Soviet invasion of Manchuria.

    I’ll keep an eye out for that, cheers. The war in the East seems to get a bit neglected by historians (It’s often referred to as “the forgotten war” here, especially by veterans organsisations catering for people who served there).

    I’m not as sure though that Japan would have given up so easily. The guidance at the time for civilians was to improvise weapons and take at least one of the invaders with them. It’s difficult to know how long that could have been sustained of course. But societal pressure and just fear of the authorities was very effective in other territories beside the home islands.

    That was all really interesting.

    the aborted Soviet Moonshot

    There were some great ideas in that programme. It’s interesting that the Soviets went down the ‘lunar lander’ route from the start. You probably know that the original US plan involved landing the whole service/command module assembly (Hence its rather 1950s sci-if rocket look).

    I also like how the Russians got round the LEO rendezvous/transfer problem. “Go out of that door, jump across, try not to miss”

    @Scolar Visari, others:
    Aside from the talk I mentioned by Dr. Grechko, I actually worked with some Russians on work related to the original RadioAstron Space VLBI project in the mid to late 1990s. While I never traveled there myself, several of the others in my lab were in Vladivostok for discussions and design work. So I’ve definitely heard stories about the Russian space program.

    (Unfortunately, at the time, the Russian space program was experiencing date slippage of over a year per year for many projects. RadioAstron, or at least the Spektr-R satellite, ended up not being operational until 2011. Much of our work ended up getting shifted over to the Japanese equivalent, VSOP/HALCA, which operated between 1997 and 2005. A lot of people were hoping we could have both the Japanese and Russian space radio telescopes in orbit at once.)

    Granted, my favourite story was the one about choosing space station crews for Mir by putting the cosmonauts in a car in Vladivostok and telling them to drive to Moscow. If they were still talking to each other by the time they got there, they would make a good space station crew. There’s just something so pragmatic about that.

    “There is no real possibility that the invasion of Japan (“Operation Downfall”) would have been necessary.”

    I think this is an overstatement that does not account for countervailing evidence. The fact that you recommend Alperovitz suggests that you do understand that the historiography on this subject is quite complex. Therefore I would in return recommend to you Richard B. Franks’ Downfall: The End of the Imperial Japanese Empire (New York: Penguin Books, 1995)

    Alperovitz’s claims lie at the center of the whole “Atomic Diplomacy” school of thought, i.e., Japan was ready to surrender but Truman just wanted to overawe the Soviets with our new atomic might, etc., etc.

    I see two problems with this — first it’s an argument that’s implicitly supported by some assumptions inherent to the predominant the ideology of the times when some first advanced this argument (in mid-1960s) — the main such assumption being that the Cold War was inevitable and that must have been foreseen. The second problem that I see follows from the first, and I think this undercuts all the “revisionist” views that follow Alperovitz: Truman, those around him, like Roosevelt before him *did not predict, expect, nor desire the dissolution of the Grand Alliance after the defeat of the Axis*. They didn’t feel a need to overawe Stalin.

    The expectation *even among many anticommunists* was that Stalin, though pretty much a thug, would cooperate on the international level and be, in terms of international diplomacy a “team player”, or at least kind of. By the time the Cold War actually got going, oh yeah then there were a lot of people pushing the “I told ya so…” game suggesting that Truman and Churchill suspected Stalin from the beginning. But recent research has overturned that — like some of the essays in that (excellent, in my opinion, by the way) Cambridge History of the Cold War that came out about ten years ago. There’s surprising things in there – that Stalin and some in the Truman administration were holding out for a US-Soviet mutual accommodation as late as 1947!

    So if one wants to accept the whole Alperovitz-style “atomic diplomacy” school of thought, one has to explain that Truman didn’t have as much as a *motive* for that as was once claimed.

    The Americans and British weren’t lookin’ for trouble with the USSR in 1945 and weren’t expecting it. They wanted one thing above all else: *to defeat the Axis*.

    The nuclear attacks on Japan and the Soviet invasion of Manchuria helped do that. Without at least one of those, the Allies would have to invade Japan.

    As for Japan’s *capacity* to continue the war being diminished?

    Since when did the militarists who ruled Japan actually modulate their aggressive war-making based upon Japan’s capacity?

    @Scolar Visari

    That long post about Soviet and Russian woman cosmonauts was very enjoyable reading! Alas, the USSR did push their “we’re soooo egalitarian…” stuff while being just as sexist and patriarchal as the rest of ’em. As I said in an earlier comment, Ms. Pavlov’s House has told me first-hand of such things. I remember being a teenager in the 1980s here in the U.S. and reading with a sort of weird curiosity the Soviet propaganda magazine Soviet Life. Ms. Pavlov’s House and I have a great time now laughing over some old issues; she ’em interprets based on her personal experience – sure, she’s only one Russian woman, but I love hearing my beloved’s perspectives. Your comment about Serova inspired me to go watch some of the interview footage and I love how she handles it. (If one looks at the photos of her actually in action on the International Space Station in 0 gravity she still looks good according to conventional Russian-woman standards — perhaps has her way but she just didn’t want to take any mess off of sexist reporters. I’m not sayin’ conventional standards have to be the dogmatic norm…just my opinion.) I agree with your speculation that Hardie would likely disapprove of women like Serova being cosmonauts and engineers and happily married to their husbands and raising their kids. I also found a NASA interview with Serova — whatever the political reality behind Tereshkova going into space, Serova clearly credits her as an inspiration.

    Ms. Pavlov’s House takes no mess off anyone and confronts sexism the same way, and yet she looks like a million bucks even after working an overnight shift at the hospital.

    I hope we have some Russian women’s voices in the comments on this blog. I love hearing what Russian women have to say about their lives.

    (Again — disclaimer against essentializing: each woman speaks for herself about her own lived experience; it’s easy, though, to take heed of the words of the particular woman that is close to one’s heart, and since Ms. Pavlov’s House has been Ms. Pavlov’s House she has shared much with me.)

    At the very least, I can guarantee all Mammothteers that no Russian woman is what RooshV thinks she is.

    In Soviet Russia, car chooses *YOU!*

    Now that I got that out of the way, Red Star In Orbit spent a lot of its time discussing how well the Salyut crews got along as the station program advanced. The 1977 Georgi Grechko and Yuri Romanenko expedition (whose last names conveniently translate to Greek and Roman respectively) spent more than 96 days together without murdering one another, which is something that I believe most people would find difficult in something that was little more than the volume of a modest living room.

    That is, unless there was a third cosmonaut in their group that was posthumously “disappeared”. Three happy spacemen indeed.

    Grechko and Romanenko seem to have credited their particular mission success to treatment of each other as equals and sharing chores, which sounds a lot like good marriage advice that one probably would not get from Roosh et al (there must be and can only be one Alpha, I guess?). The sporadic contact between them and mission control also meant they largely ran things their own way, which was quite preferable to the micro-mangement NASA exercised on Skylab 4. I seriously wonder how China’s CNSA will apply these lessons in the upcoming Tiangong-2/Shenzhou 11 mission, as thirty day missions tend to be the hardest on people and Tiangong-2 is rather small for three people.

    The guidance at the time for civilians was to improvise weapons and take at least one of the invaders with them. – Alan Robertshaw

    My point was that there need have been no invasion. Blockade would have been quite sufficient to reduce Japan to a non-industrial economy within months. You cannot run an industrial economy without supplies of oil, tin and rubber – or indeed, without any one of these three.

    Pavlov’s House, thanks for the recommendation, I’ll look out for Franks’ book, but I can’t see how he or anyone else could explain away the copious documentation Alperovitz provides.

    The Americans and British weren’t lookin’ for trouble with the USSR in 1945 and weren’t expecting it.

    As Alperovitz says, the Americans thought (wrongly) that they had sufficient strength to oblige Stalin to accept a subordinate role in an American-dominated postwar world, but as early as April 1945, when Truman first met a Soviet representative (Molotov), there was deep disagreement about Poland, and Truman is reported to have used “undiplomatic” language.

    The Americans and British weren’t lookin’ for trouble with the USSR in 1945 and weren’t expecting it. They wanted one thing above all else: *to defeat the Axis*.

    The nuclear attacks on Japan and the Soviet invasion of Manchuria helped do that. Without at least one of those, the Allies would have to invade Japan.

    Sure the Americans and British gave priority to defeating the Axis. But they would have been completely remiss not to have been thinking about the balance of power in the postwar world – and they were. Your second paragraph appears to implicitly concede that the use of the atomic bombs was not necessary, since the Americans knew the Soviet invasion of Manchuria was coming. But as noted above, I consider that blockade would have sufficed to force Japanese surrender irrespective of Soviet participation – and in addition to what I’ve already said, it’s probably easier to maintain political unity and civilian compliance in the face of an imminently expected invasion than under an indefinite blockade.

    It would be unnerving, yes, if feminists were actually this naive and silly. It’s certainly unnerving how some people think
    (a) that objecting to Islamophobia = approving of Islam unreservedly
    (b) that all Muslims adhere to precisely the same rules and beliefs

    If I pull a quote from the Christian bible and claim that all Christians agree with it, I’m being ridiculous. If I take Westboro BC as the basic definition of ‘being a Christian’, I’m being ridiculous.
    Seriously. I’m an angry atheist and even I know better.

    @Joaquin

    Yes, we all know islam is a REALLY tolerant and progressive religion, sure

    Who argued to the contrary?

    Google “Karl Popper paradox of tolerance”

    Google isn’t a source, and it definitely ain’t an argument

    It’s a bit unnerving to know how quickly are some feminists in supporting a religion that kill women for marriying with the man she chooses

    I support the fuck outta Islam. I’m subscribed to the newsletter, I participate in the bake sale, and make generous donations at the drives. I even canvassed door to door for the Islam Party back in 2012! Oh wait, none of that happened. How do I regularly support Islam? Think, think… That’s right! I oppose killing millions of people. Shouldn’t have done that. Welp, learned my lesson. Nuke away then

    Saying all Muslims are ISIS is like saying that all Christians are Quiverfull/ Mormon/ Fundie WASPS. Simply untrue.

    @mish

    I’m afraid the definition of Christianity has changed somewhat since Christ’s disciples were still around. Back then, Christians believed they should carry on Christ’s work on earth, feeding the poor, healing the sick, and casting out demons. Modern fundie/Wasp/ evangelical Christianity defines a ‘Born Again Christian ™’ by what they hate, be it Muslims, trans people, gays, blacks etc to irrelevant stuff like Harry Potter, Tarot Cards, yoga, Troll dolls and the newspaper horoscope. (None of which are even mentioned in the Bible, let alone condemned) They seem to want to out do each other by hating more stuff than the others, and 95% of it is pure xenophobia. I’ll give you an example. I had a “friend” when I lived in Bognor who was a Baptist, but was absolutely paranoid about everything, and saw evil in everything from smelly candles and incense to rock music and pet cats (witches familiars) She came to my flat and saw that I had a duvet cover with Chinese calligraphic characters on it, and she was really upset that I was sleeping under it, she wanted to pray over it to cast the demons out. She also believed that there were demons attached to all second hand charity shop clothes, seeing as I was a student at the time this comprised nearly all of my clothes.
