Comments by "" (@Divide_et_lmpera) on "How Money Works" channel.

@sauercrowder I see my 2 new comments just disappeared, for no valid reason... So once again, it's not a philosopher in the avatar. Just admit that you can't even define "bigot" and you're just parroting it because other leftists say it too (though most of them can't define it either). See? This is one of the things that definitely DO affect me. Countless posts from countless people disappearing just because of big tech employees creating lame algorithms catering to their feelings rather than allowing free exchange of information and criticism.

@sauercrowder Yeah, it's crazy how you're unable to write at least one good faith post. At least one? Can you try? How can you guy be reached? Please tell me. How?

"It's also amusing to observe the many cognitively dissonant ideas held by these people, for example the fact that they like to act tough and use threatening slogans but when the people they disagree with come around all of a sudden they're shaking in their boots. This happens when at some subconscious level you know you're in the wrong." That's exactly why you're refusing to define words such as "bigot" and instead are running away from discussions. And that's why your fellow folks need "safe spaces" and "trigger warnings" and cry about "microaggressions" and so on. You described your own side and projected it onto your opponents. It's standard tactic on the left, also called "the iron law of woke projection".

@sauercrowder You don't need to repeat yourself. What do you think of the feminist analogy?

@sauercrowder Cringe...

@sauercrowder I already told you it's not a philosopher in the avatar. If you don't know what you're commenting on, maybe just don't address it? I don't care "how smart I am", I only care about your arguments. See? This is how you've been deliberately misinterpreting and mocking other people's position, assuming what they would have said (the N word), assuming what they think, even making ridiculous claims about "shaking in their boots" when you are very well aware that it's actually your side to which this applies. That's pure projection, and it's not the only one you're guilty of. I'm "pretentious" but somehow you're too good to debate the "plebs" in youtube comments, so you just spam the whole thread with non-arguments and false claims, then projecting that very thing onto me or someone else. You don't mind spending time on posts alluding to someone's immaturity or intelligence (which is of course fallacious) when instead you could have posted some good quality arguments already. For example, answering my question about male feminists. It's a simple question, really, not a rocket science. You are here quite obviously in bad faith and that can be observed since your very first comment. Of course you know your BS will get called out eventually, so you've now positioned yourself as "This was my last post", just so you can avoid addressing any of it. I've seen all these cheap tactics countless times over decades.

Maybe you're now "too busy" or "have better things to do"? I know, I know, you're not the first one. They all get very busy as soon as they need to back their claims and make an actual valid arguments. Somehow that happens every single time. If a website allows it, they also switch off comments or delete the whole thread.

@sauercrowder I don't know which part of my post is problematic for youtube because it keeps deleting it, so I'll try to divide it into parts and see. 1/3 I already told you it's not a philosopher in the avatar.

@semplybalanced3210 Calling someone "you colonizers" is actually one of the typical woke tactics. It's interesting how something that "doesn't exist" can have it's own vocabulary, tactics and effects on the real world...

For all you pretending "it's not a thing". From Wiki (which is always very left-friendly) "Woke is a political slang adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) originally meaning alertness to racial prejudice and discrimination.[1] Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism, and denial of LGBT rights. Woke has also been used as shorthand for some ideas of the American Left involving identity politics and social justice, such as white privilege and reparations for slavery in the United States." Definitely doesn't exist, right? And we're not even talking about removing statues or about "safe spaces without white people" at some universities, about "diversity trainings" and so on.

Generational wealth is often lost within 3 generations.

I started with £20,000 this summer, was already on £23,400 last month, but now many of my stocks are dipping so it's down to £22,150 today :face-red-droopy-eyes:

Send money to Larry Fink.

Yeah, that's an hour later.

In the UK we have a tax free ISA account where you can put up to £20k. So I opened one this summer, put in £20k, bought and sold some individual stocks. I was at £23,400 last month but this month I'm down to £22,150 which is frustrating. Hopefully a little boost will come after the FED and BoE rates are announced?

@dorino9057 Why should anyone stop complaining about feminism? It's an ideology and as such, it must be open to criticism. Any ideology that cannot be criticised is potentially dangerous. For the starter, it was mostly feminism that pushed women into employment, effectively doubling the workforce. That's one of the main reasons (though not the only one) why men can no longer support their families on just one income.

@Cauldron6 Are you a woman? Because you gave him an emotional response with zero counter-arguments. And perhaps you'll give another one now.

@Misaka-gt5yj Could it be a good time to buy a bunch of REITs tho? I'm just looking at them, pretty much the same curve as most of my other stocks right now, lol.
1
The latter for me. I used to go to Starbucks often, so I bought their shares later on. If I'm already buying the product anyway, then why not to also own a tiny bit of that company. I also owned shares of my car insurance company, and companies that make equipment for my job, etc.

@johnl.7754 "Especially if not having a girlfriend or being married" And that is a vicious circle. You don't have a job because you don't have a sense of meaning, but then no girl will date you, so you're not going to get that sense of meaning.

I'm 100% a woman, even though I have 🍆

@HowMoneyWorks But how do they profit from forcing companies to post Pride all over their social media or implementing hiring quotas? I'm still not sure.

I could buy my used car with cash but instead I bought it on a credit card with 20 months 0% interest. After 20 months, rolled the remaining balance over onto another 0% card for 18 months, although this time it costed me a 3% fee. So basically the 3% fee is spread across 38 months. That's really super cheap. Meanwhile, the cash has been sitting in a savings account earning 5% annually.

I really want to send all my money to some hairy dude in India or Nigeria. Can anyone give me a good tip? :face-green-smiling:

@0volts157 That's nit-picking. When people say addicted to the internet, they mostly mean those platforms. And no one has mentioned corn yet. That's very addictive too, especially for young men.

Mine?

@skyblazeeterno Interesting. Thanks.

"Anti woke exchage" by BlackRock who have been pushing wokeism like crazy? Can anyone explain me this?

Thanks for doing this highly important job bro. 👍 Nobody needs managers and influencers. Everybody needs bin men, warehouse pickers, road maintenance workers, etc.

@syloui How many % are just a bit above the minimum wage?
1
@JJones-zg7yz What percentage are making just a bit more than the minimum wage?
1
What do you mean by destroyed the market? Also, can anyone explain by why BlackRock is building an "anti woke exchange" when they are going to great lengths to push wokeism in the first place?
1
@jimipet So, what if they were trading on commission-free platforms?
1
These morons don't understand that's it's also in their own interest to be surrounded by people who have more money rather than less money. I would rather live in the society where my neighbours and people on the street are generally happy and smiling, have money to spend and support local businesses, rather than society where lots of people are unhappy, stressed, get sick and depressed, turn to theft and other crime, etc. How hard is it to understand that?
1
How is it "anti woke" when BlackRock are the woke ones pushing ESG / DEI ?
1
Better go to something like Gender Studies or Post-colonial Studies, etc. You can become something like "DEI commissar." These leftists always create useless jobs for themselves that get paid for by capitalists. I must admit they are quite brilliant in this regard.

@70two41five What would it look like if you only started at the beginning of 2022 ?

@amitchawla5124 Starting your business is very hard in the corporatist environment where megacorps are in cahoots with govs and make it super hard for new competitors to grow. Also, not everyone can start and run a business, just like not everyone can be a singer or athlete. Stop pandering to mega corps dude.
