My fiancee and I are having a baby on Friday, during our process of regular check ups, and ultrasounds, and tests, and all that other fun pregnancy stuff, we've had numerous nurses and other "health care professionals" casually ask us if we're keeping the baby. Neither of us have voiced interest or even remotely suggested that we were considering abortion, we've been nothing but happy and optimistic throughout the whole pregnancy, so I have to assume this kind of push is just standard practice in modern healthcare, and it's gross, and unacceptable. And we live in Texas, abortion isn't even legal here. One of the younger nurses we spoke to early in the pregnancy started trying to tell us about other options we could look into about travelling out of state, even after we told her we were keeping the baby, after that she ignored me and started deliberately addressing my fiancee only, making sure to face her body away from me, as though I was holding my fiancee hostage or something.

I think boredom is a very overlooked and understated factor in everything that's so wrong with society, I'm 39, and part of a very unique generation that mostly grew up without the internet, not that it didn't exist, it just wasn't as common and frequently used until sometime in my teens. Being bored with your friends is part of how kids have grown up for all of human history, you get into trouble, you learn how to not get in TOO much trouble, you learn what kind of people are your friends, you learn what kind of people you shouldn't trust, and most importantly you learn to enjoy the really fun things, because they aren't always there whenever you snap your fingers.

My job hires a lot of high school and college aged kids during the summer and holidays for extra help, some of them stick around for some time, so I've gotten to know a lot of younger generation people over the years. And they're defective. Even the good kids that I genuinely like are completely clueless about real life skills, we do our best to at least teach them how to work, but it's pretty difficult when you're starting at absolute zero, I'm talking about kids that have to be instructed on how to wash dishes or mop floors. Not many of them are brain dead communists, I'm assuming the worst kids don't even bother getting a part time job because they're too busy with their play pretend revolution, so the scary part is I'm actually getting the better half of the new generation, I don't think they're bad kids, I actually really like a lot of them, and truly feel bad. They've been robbed of their childhood, and an education, I don't know what in the hell they're learning in school, but it's sure as hell not anything useful.

@James-sk4db I've noticed that this is a method communists use to pull people closer to their side, without even realizing it. They start with a completely absurd position, like men can be women, women can be men, and everyone can be a crocodile, and moderate people who try to see both sides will say something like "eh, probably not, but I suppose that may be true sometimes", and think that's the centrist position. When really the centrist, sensible position is "no, you're insane, boys are boys and girls are girls, and you can't be a crocodile." But according to them, that's "far right extremism."

I can't even imagine being in a position where I'm a journalist, I know of a messed up situation that the public should know about, and my superiors say nope, don't report on that, it might hurt the person we want to win the election, and I say sure chief, sounds good to me. "It's just a job" is not an excuse, if your job involves something that unethical and immoral, take a stand, or at the very least, find a new job. Being complicit is the same as being one of them.

It never made sense to me how we were always taught in American schools that Nazis were the "big bad", when communists have a far larger body count and were just as bad, if not worse, in pretty much every regard. And when you tried to point that out, people freak out and act like you're saying Nazis were good. No, no, they're both bad, but why so much focus on the bad guys who slaughtered far fewer people? I mean, I kinda understand why, we were allied with the soviets. But that should have been my first red flag that communist sympathies were leaking into education. And I'm old, this was the late 90s, early 2000s.

I have an ex coworker that was into all the far left identity politics, when the US women's soccer team not making equal pay to the men's, she was complaining about that, so I asked her how many of the women's games she watched. Of course the answer was none, she said she doesn't like sports. And she didn't see the issue with this. I can't imagine being so ideologically obsessed that I stick my nose into things I don't know or care about just because "it's the thing", I know that there's been a lot of controversy about the recent Star Wars entries, and a lot of it is politically charged because of the leftist politics being injected into it, but I don't engage in those conversations because I just don't care about Star Wars (no nerd shaming here, I'm a nerd too, just not that kind of nerd). These leftists are completely insane, there's nothing wrong with just saying you don't know about something and you're not that interested.

I've worked for a small business for almost 10 years, the previous owners handed over operations to a larger corporate entity about 9 months ago. They didn't sell it, they still own the property, but effectively we changed management and ownership, I have yet to meet a single man who works with the new company, I'm also yet to meet a single person who knows their asshole from their face, or is even remotely competent, even at the most menial task. It's been a complete disaster, a company that was hugely successful from the ground up for almost 20 years is collapsing right in front of my eyes in less than a year. Their big selling point to the owners was that "nothing would change", and they would just continue doing what we had successfully been doing, which was obviously corporate weasel speak, all of us knew things would be changing, but these idiots have changed literally EVERYTHING, from the smallest little detail to the overall structure of our business, and there has not been a single positive change. We're losing customers every day, people who have been coming to us for over a decade, everything is so clearly and obviously a shit show, about 2/3 of our new clients come once and never come back. It's absolutely horrible. Hooray, feminism.

It's impossible to tell if they're just liars, or if they genuinely believe their own lies, just in the last few days I've seen leftists online claim that there were no BLM riots, that's right, ZERO BLM riots, not a single one, that there are not large numbers of people moving out of NY and Cali, that's just "right wing propaganda", and that Florida has the worst covid numbers of any state in the nation. Completely delusional, that's not a even a distorted perception of reality, that's an entirely different reality.

This is gonna sound like a stupid comparison, but just go with me if you will, I'm a Yankees fan, and I live in Houston. So there's not a ton of Yankees fans down here. When I've met other Yankees fans, I've often caught myself kinda giving them more of the benefit of the doubt than I would otherwise, like if they seem like kind of a dick, my attitude towards it is eh, it's fine. They seem alright. And if they weren't a Yankee fan, or if I didn't know they were, I would probably have an attitude more like nah that dude's a dick. So I can somewhat see where that tribalism comes from, if I was a completely insane Yankees fan that attached way too much of my identity as a person to that, I would probably completely ignore any and all bad behavior I see from Yankees fans. I think that's where this comes from. Some people are kinda like yea I'm gay it's not that big of a deal, but some people are way too into that and think that it's the one central thing that defines them as a person.

@johncarver9997 I'm from Texas, and yes, most people did have internet by the late 90s, but it still wasn't nearly like it is today, you weren't online all day, you would get online for a little while to download music or chat on instant messengers, watch porn, whatever it is you did, but it wasn't something you carried around in your pocket 24/7, it wasn't something that practically every business relied on, it wasn't something you relied on for basic information. The majority of our lives still took place completely separate from the internet until some time in the mid 2000s.

I remember the moment I knew Callum was the man, it was maybe 6 months to a year ago, him and Carl were doing a segment on dating apps and how they were making young men and women unhappy and lonely, and Callum says in a very stoic and matter of fact way, "that's because men want a woman, not a whore", and Carl just replies "bloody hell, Callum!"🤣🤣🤣 I died laughing, if you can get that response from Carl, you have nailed the point directly on the head, in a hilarious way.

My girlfriend is 12 weeks pregnant, she used to have much different views about abortion and thought it was totally fine. We're a little older, I'm 38, she's 39, I think a lot due to talking to me about political issues she's changed her views quite a bit, and abortion was never even an option, even though the whole thing is a bit unexpected and overwhelming at times. We're gonna be fine. It's quite repulsive that every one of her female "friends", coworkers, acquaintances asked her is she's "keeping it", it was typically the first question they asked. Interestingly, men, not so much. What a disgusting society we live in, you would think women should be the most appalled by abortion, their natural instinct is to care for and nurture young humans, men would have more of a tendency to be indifferent towards babies that have nothing to do directly with their lives. Men in our society are more compassionate towards babies. The communist mind virus truly is a monster.

I've worked at a kennel for 9 years, and the stereotypes about pitbulls aren't completely accurate, but aren't completely false either, they're just a little misguided. They absolutely are a dangerous breed, a very, very dangerous breed, but more often than being aggressive towards people, they're aggressive towards other animals. I think the biggest problems are that they're a high energy breed with a strong prey drive, so especially any dog or other animal that's considerably smaller than them or in any way distressed, squealing or running nervously, trying to escape, watch out, that animal is probably dead. And the main issue is just the type of people who are attracted to pit bulls. For whatever reason, they've become the official dog breed of ghetto people who just don't really care about properly training a dog, and get them as some kind of status symbol that they're "part of the culture", and also leftist feminist types, for some reason they love pit bulls. I think it's the "I can fix him" kind of attitude they tend to have, but I see a loooooooot of those types, usually lesbians, with absolutely horribly behaved pits that have no training whatsoever, absolute monsters that they like to act like are the most precious little perfect babies.

I'm 37, so it's been quite a bit since I was in school, late 90s to early 2000s. Things were already getting pretty bad back then, on the surface a lot of my teachers were just kinda dumb, I remember asking them things that really seemed like they should know, and they didn't know, it almost felt like they were learning the curriculum of that class along with us. But beneath all that, subtle political indoctrination was leaking through too, not every teacher, and it wasn't nearly as blatant and in your face as what I've seen now, not by a long shot. But most of my teachers seemed far more sympathetic to left wing ideals.

@skye.325 it's also just natural teenage rebellion, when you're 18 and living on your own for the first time, you think you're the king of the world, you don't think you need authority in any way, because you know what's best for you. The whole anti authority rhetoric they push is appealing, which is laughable considering their end goal is to usher in an authoritative state. But their messaging is extremely calculated, and manipulative. And this is coming from someone who didn't drink the Kool-Aid, I pushed back against my professors that were pushing the woke crap, but I also did become skeptical of some things, at least for a time. Sad irony is that they're right about America not being some perfect haven, but the main problem with America is them. I think that's kind of the point. Tell kids America sucks while they're actively making America suck more, then they can say see, I told you it sucks! Now let's do things my way, it'll be better!

@jayc342009 same here, it's a tricky situation because I believe people deserve a second chance, I don't think a woman is damaged goods because she's been abused. But more often than not, women who have been in abusive relationships are emotionally abusive themselves, I know that sounds like "victim blaming", and maybe it is to some extent, but men don't typically just hit women for no reason, they usually do it because the woman makes them feel like shit. That doesn't mean it's ok, a man should never hit a woman, but it's also not ok for women to abuse men to the point that they lash out with violence. You have to be careful with women who have been abused. It's usually a pattern, and they will usually abuse you if you're nice and treat them well. They don't want to be treated well. They want drama, they want to feel important, and they crave a destructive form of importance rather than constructive.

When I worked in fast food, I noticed that nearly all of the black applicants came in wearing shorts and a t-shirt, usually with the shorts so low their underwear was hanging out, they wouldn't ask to speak directly to the hiring manager, they just passed off the application to whoever was at the counter like hear ya go, bye. And it's fast food, it's not like you have to come in with a briefcase and a resume, wearing business casual. But for fucks sake, at least pretend like you take yourself seriously, and you want the job. And the shittiest part of all is that when we were hiring, we had to meet a certain quota for hiring black and Hispanic applicants, or some bureaucratic stooges would be up the restaurants ass about it.

@luxie8097 CRT isn't real, but if it was real, it would be a good thing, but it's not taught in schools, but if it was, that would be a good thing, but it's not, and it's only taught in university, but it's also not real, and it's not taught in school, but it would be a good thing if it was, but it's not.

He was a flash in the pan, he was really good for 2 years or so when he first came into the league, he was really athletic and had a strong arm. But he wasn't very versatile, the league caught up to his tendencies and he couldn't adjust. No shame in that, it happens all the time in pro sports. That's what the "sophomore slump" is, when 2nd year players aren't nearly as good as their rookie season, it's because the league has studied them and figured out their strategies, that's when you have to adapt and survive or stay the same and fade into obscurity, and some players just can't adapt, it's really hard to abandon the things that got you through school and semi-pro or minors or whatever it was before you went pro and diversify your techniques. But he found a new cash cow, the race grift. There's definitely shame in that, but at the same time I can't put all the blame on him, the people who created that market are really to blame. He's just capitalizing on it.

Well generally speaking, there's 2 basic kinds of people, the normies that don't pay any attention, and people who do, probably all of us watching this video. And we know they're lying, they know we know they're lying, they don't care, they're not talking to us. As for the normies, if you just call it something that sounds better, they won't be upset about something that's obviously bad. They're really that stupid. They see the prices of things they buy increasing, but they won't be mad about it unless the media tells them to be mad.

@burtreynolds8030 the strong willed people, who refuse to accept excuses and take the easy way out. Those people exist in every demographic, just like the opposite extreme, people who are just lazy and unmotivated, and will never succeed, no matter how much is given to them. It's the people in the middle who make the difference in overall demographic breakdowns, the people who could succeed or fail, depending on the proper motivation. People who aren't part of a "marginalized minority" don't have any perennial excuses lined up, they have to sink or swim. There's more motivation to swim. That's why the left is constantly expanding their list of "marginalized" groups, because they want to give more and more excuses to more and more people, to drive success down. Successful people don't want communism, because they don't need it. Broken, demoralized, helpless people want communism.

@mrwednesdaynight none of the younger ones I've worked with are into all the gender pronoun nonsense, but most of them are aware of it. Which in and of itself is pretty sad, when I was that age most of us didn't give a shit about politics, I didn't care about politics until my mid 20s. That was pretty normal, you're not supposed to be pressured into that stuff by adults, you get into it when you get into it, you're supposed enjoy your youth as long as possible before you have to worry about real world stuff. That's supposed to be our job as adults, we're supposed to bear the weight of all the heavy stuff so our kids can just grow and thrive, learn, have fun with their friends, fall in love, have their hearts broken, all of that good and great and ugly stuff. Newer generations are being robbed of that, because the left is recruiting them as political soldiers, whether they like it or not. Their only other option besides joining the left is fighting against the left. That's one of the secondary effects of this that we won't see for years, these kids are going to be pissed off when they get older and realize everything that was taken from them.

@TM-do3di the opposite is closer to being true, even Nazis and fascists are closer to far left than far right. Far right is anarchy, a little less far right than that is libertarian. Right means individual rights, left means collectivism. All authoritarian ideologies are collective. This is not to say fascists are the same as communists, they're definitely different, but they're not different on the left/right scale, they're different in that communists focus on progress, and fascists focus on tradition. Which is relative, and really a pretty superficial distinction it you think about it. If a communist today were to achieve their goals, then 20 years from now they would be a fascist, without changing at all. Because the progress they fought for is now tradition.

Exactly, the owners of my work are a conservative couple, they have 2 daughters. The older is the co-owner, she's kind of the 3rd in command of our business, extremely conservative, really more libertarian. Their younger daughter is a bat shit insane far left SJW type, she's at some fancy art school in Pennsylvania now. That gives you a pretty accurate image of her, you can tell just by looking at her that she's "that type", she wears the crazy leftist uniform and everything. But when she left to go to school, I remember seeing her outside hugging her dad, my boss, and he was crying, which is freaking bizarre, he's this gigantic, stoic dude that rarely shows any emotion whatsoever, even when he tells a joke he just has the dead stare, which makes it funnier. But anyway, my point is, if he was super liberal with a crazy far right daughter, you know he would have disowned her by now, she would be dead to him. But he doesn't care, I'm sure her political views are annoying, and a source of frustration for them, but he still loves his daughter no matter what. You just don't see that coming from the other side.

@jayc342009 it took me a while to understand this, and it took even longer to stop blaming myself for being so stupid and falling into that trap. Because it's not stupid, and I'm not stupid, I'm just a normal man who wants a good woman, and when you first meet that toxic woman she presents herself as a victim who wants a chance to have a loving relationship, they're very convincing, and they probably are genuine in that moment, when they're still in the post period of an abusive relationship they think they want something normal and stable, but when they get it, they get bored. They really are victims, but they also really are victimizers, whether they're consciously doing it or not. It's sad, I don't like it, nobody likes it, but you can't save them. They have to help themselves first before anyone else can help them.

@beinnice1356 thanks, yea it's horrible. I'm seriously considering moving on, which sucks total balls because I loved this company, I put a lot of my heart and soul into it. I know the owners really well too, they were like family. It's a man and his wife, and their daughter was the sort of 3rd in command, so it was literally a family owned business, and they started and built it from the ground up, again, literally, he helped with the physical construction of the property with his own 2 hands. They just got older and wanted to spend more time with their grandkids, do other things, so I understand from their point of view. They didn't want to keep working forever. And I don't think their daughter was interested in taking over, she's got her own family and her stuff too. Goddamn though, all these idiots had to do was just shut up and let the employees run the business, pay the bills and get paid in return. They walked into a gold mine, and they blew it up before they even got the gold. I've teetered back and forth between whether they're tanking it on purpose, to thin out the competition with other companies they've absorbed, or if it's just incompetence. After meeting a lot of these HR cat moms face to face, I think it's genuine incompetence. They're fucking idiots, every last one of them. They all have that blank SSRI stare, like they're not really sure if they're awake or dreaming.

I'll actually somewhat agree with the left in the whole "housing is a right" thing, if you reduce it to it's most basic parts, if you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, and you see a big hollow log, hallelujah, there's your new house, and nobody should be able to strip you of that right. Of course that's not what they mean, they mean a modern housing situation with modern luxuries. That is not a right, because you presumably can't build and maintain that all by yourself, especially not if you're a smelly San Francisco hippie that's strung out on Ozzy Osbourne levels of drugs. You do not have a right to someone else's labor, in any reasonable universe.

@TheStarcleaver thanks! Yea everything has been good so far, she has a placenta plavia, so that's why we're having to have a C-Section, basically vaginal birth could be extremely dangerous to her especially, she could bleed to death, and it could be dangerous for the baby too, so we're having the C-section Friday because it's 3 weeks before she would be due, they want to make sure she doesn't go into labor. So that's a complication, but it's not that big of a deal, it's pretty common. Other than that, he's a healthy, normal baby, we'll have to be in the hospital for a few days bc he's gonna be right on that borderline of premature. All things considered it's been a pretty smooth ride so far.

@bakerboat4572 a lot of the time, yes. The problem is that the problem is very complicated, which is prime territory for leftist exploitation. There are a lot of mental illnesses that really do need medication, there's a difference between a chemical imbalance and a situational or environmental imbalance. Some people are depressed because they aren't quite wired right, those people need medication, but other people are depressed because their life sucks, or a certain situation or situations suck. Those people need time, therapy, or just to fix the shit that's wrong, any number of things. And sometimes it can be both. But we just throw a bunch of drugs at every problem and hope something sticks. Sorta. The people throwing the drugs really just hope they get paid, they don't really give a shit about what happens to the patient.

@trustworthydan heavy metal is pretty unique though, because there's barely any mainstream industry within it. The handful of groups that have broken through and become mainstream are usually just really, really good, to the point where even people who don't like metal like some of their music, like Slipknot. So you can get rich playing metal, but it's not very likely. If being rich and famous is your goal, you should choose pretty much any genre besides metal. Because of that, most metal groups are really in it for the music, not the money. That's also why there's still so much diversity, metal hasn't bottlenecked into an unrecognizable mush mash of the same shit, like country, hip hop, and pop have. I can hear a brand new song by a group I like and know it's them before I even hear any vocals, most metal groups have a unique sound to their drums and guitars, just like vocalists have a unique voice. You can't say the same for country or pop. I bet if you asked a country fan who their favorite guitar player is, they wouldn't even have an answer. Because it's all the same shit. Nobody is "good" or "bad" at country guitar, because they all play the exact same shit. If a country group is on tour and their guitar player gets sick or injured, no biggie, just go to a local bar and ask if anyone plays guitar. Boom. You got a new guitar player. Nobody will even notice. If Lamb of God's guitar player or drummer gets sick, that's it, tour is over. They might get lucky and find another drummer or guitar player to fill in temporarily, but it won't be the same. They'll have to apologize before the show, like sorry guys, guitar player is sick, wish him well, we got this other guy so give him some love, he's doing the best he can.

@soothsayer1964 most people are scared to fight, because fighting sucks, it hurts, even if you win, even if you beat the stupid out of them without even taking a punch, you're gonna have bruised knuckles and forearms. You win once, against someone you wouldn't be expected to beat, it shows a) you can hold your own, and b) you're not scared. That's really all it takes, most guys won't even mess with you at that point. Especially not garden variety bullies, they don't want to actually fight, they just want to feel big. That's why they pick the weaklings, they don't want a challenge.

I don't really know enough about him or the situation to know this with any accuracy, but I do know that former extremists or cult members are often the most vocal and passionate about anti extremism and anti cult activism. It can also be a dangerous spiral sometimes, because that part of their mentality that led them to become and extremist in the first place doesn't often just go away, it's just sort of dormant, and they can often latch onto a sort of "anti extremist-extremism" without realizing it, if that makes sense. There's a content creator that has a channel called "Telltale" that's a prime example of this, he started out as an anti-cult/religious extremism channel and made outstanding content, very well thought out and as objective as he could be while talking about subjective content, he was raised Jehovah's Witness and left, so he has personal experience with cults and is also a recovering addict, so the guys had some rough times. But over time his channel morphed into Orange Man Bad propaganda, he's gone completely off the rails and is a full blown leftist extremist now, most of his videos are about how bad and evil Republicans are now. It's kinda sad actually, I don't think he even realizes that he left a religious cult for a pseudo religious, political cult.

@solan7978 religion is another common way to have purpose, but it doesn't have to be religion, or a job, it just has to be something. Purpose is a fundamental necessity of existing as a person, but it's intangible, you can't quantify it, you can't hold it in your hand, it's just something you feel. And leftism teaches stupid and vulnerable people that only the tangible matters. So no matter how much stuff they have, they can never be happy. They will never be fulfilled, they will never have a meaningful life. It's sad because they are technically people, there's a part of you that feels bad for them because you know they can't ever be complete as a person, but you also have to understand that they're more like a parasite than a person, they want to harm you, they want to take everything you have.

@Vercur I didn't know that, I just guessed, but now we all know that since you admitted it🤣 there's a little thumbs up and thumbs down below the comments on Android, I'm not sure what it looks like on iphone. You can see how many likes a comment has but not the dislikes, since too many lefties got PTSD from people not liking their comments, YouTube changed that. All you can see on the dislikes is if you disliked the comment, you can't see the total number. I'm sure yours has plenty. And for the record, the dead giveaway is when someone makes a stupid comment like yours that nobody could possibly like besides the person who posted it, and it immediately has one like. Makes it pretty obvious who that like came from. If you want to pat yourself on the back without looking so obviously thirsty, make a comment, come back in about 5 minutes and then like your own comment. It's a little less obvious that way. Pro gamer tip.

@ronfroehlich4697 you know what I've always said was a very significant shift in culture, that most people are aware of but maybe haven't made the connection, is the advent of "conspiracy theories", and the stigma that's attached to it. A lot of people are scared to even suggest some kind of alarm about something that either isn't confirmed or isn't widely accepted yet, and I don't think that's a natural thing to be ashamed or ridiculed for. I mean, imagine a tribe of ancient humans, and one of them is like oh shit, I saw a tiger! I'm sure everyone would just take that at face value and get armed and ready. And if it turns out there wasn't a tiger, they probably wouldn't ridicule him, they would just be like hey, better safe than sorry, tigers are definitely a real thing. But today, raising an alarm about something preemptively is seen as paranoia or being a crazy person. That's how we're constantly caught with our pants down by these kind of harmful cultural shifts, and even when basically everyone looks back and says oh shit, I guess that was wrong, those same people don't also go back and say oh shit, I guess we were wrong for shaming the people who tried to warn us. They just go about their business and shame the next person who tries to warn them about something else.

@eliseosterbrink8000 yes, we didn't choose to have a C-section, she has to because of the placenta plavia. She was actually really upset about it at first, because of the potential complications, but a vaginal birth would be extremely dangerous, so she accepted it with some time. Plus she's really, realllllly ready to not be pregnant anymore, so she's good with it now. We're still undecided about what we're going to do going forward, when it comes to more kids, she had been wanting to have her tubes tied but started having some doubts a few weeks ago, so we decided against that. So we'll see.

@spsawyer22 pro choice and pro abortion are different positions though. Pro abortion is relatively new, at least new in the mainstream like it is today. Nobody should be pro abortion, that's straight up psychotic, pro choice means you know it's a moral wrong, but you think it can be sometimes justified in extreme circumstances, because you're preventing further moral wrongs, like a kid being brought into a world where they have little to no chance of having a good life. I get that. I don't agree with that, but I get why people think that way. Being pro abortion is as psychotic as being pro war, nobody should want war, war is awful, sometimes there are just situations where it's necessary, and people disagree about what those situations are and how frequently they occur. But you shouldn't go to war because you want to, it's just one of those things that you have to do sometimes out of necessity, or because the alternatives are even worse.

@VallornDeathblade my mom lost her marbles when I was about 10, parents were divorced when I was 12 I think. With a considerable fight, my dad got custody of both me and my older brother. Which is sad and revolting, it only took about 15 seconds to make the assessment that my mom was not fit to be the caretaker of 2 teenage boys, she couldn't even take care of herself. It's really unfortunate, I don't really know who's to blame here, honestly probably nobody. We can point the finger at her family, her parents mainly, they always enabled her and her brothers and sisters, mental illness runs strong in that family and they make every excuse in the book, they'll admit that it's absolutely anything besides what it actually is. It's just manic depression, severe, clinical. She didn't have a drug problem or anything like that, she was a perfectly normal, great mother really for all our childhood, she just went whacky in the wicky woo at some point, you can't even blame my dad because what she became wasn't the woman he married. I'm 38 so this all happened a while back, late 90s when all the shit was going down. But that's pretty indicative of how our legal system is favored towards women in the US, every legal person involved in the court was looking for an excuse to give custody to my mom and not my dad, and she didn't even want custody, she had a nervous breakdown and turned into a screaming banshee at every hearing we went to, it was baaaaaad, the woman was an emotional wreck.

@I-Dophler they're both socialists, they both believe in top down control from the government, both economically and culturally. Nazis believe in supremacy through birth rite, communists believe in supremacy through submitting to the state. And on a long enough timeline, the communist becomes a fascist or a Nazi. Since one of the main differences is communism focuses on progress, whereas fascism and Nazism focus on tradition. If communism were to succeed, eventually progress would become tradition. Now they have even more in common. And communists believe in equity among their people, the same as Nazis. It's just that "our people" to a Nazi is a specific ethnic group, whereas to a communist, "our people" is anyone who submits to communism. Of course they're not the same, it wouldn't even be worth a discussion if they were the same. But they're very similar, to the point that a lot of their "differences" have been overstated by both ideologies wanting to distance themselves from the other, because they're competing for the same followers. The type of person who would fall into communism is the exact same personality type who would fall into Nazism or fascism.

@TearThatRedFlagDown I agree, that's why I put the quotations around "left libertarian" like that, I just meant that they call themselves that, not that they actually are. The most generous I will be is that I suppose you could be left libertarian, if you're just a little bit left of center, or just a little bit libertarian over authoritarian. Most people who claim to be left libertarian just think they should be able to do whatever they want, and someone else should be forced to pay for it. It's not libertarian if you wouldn't extend the same freedoms to everyone else that you want for yourself. And as far as far left anarchists, they're just using anarchist ideology as a means to destroy the current state, the end goal isn't a stateless society, it's a state that's controlled by their ideology, by force. Even if that's not what the blue haired Twitter creatures want, it's what they would get if their ideology becomes dominant.

@CoolPapaJMagik I see what you mean, every day. Imagine a scenario where a man is a sole bread winner of the house, and tells his wife she can't buy something or go do something. Most people, men or women, would have an objection to that, and would make some comment about the husband being an asshole, or "controlling", probably even some jab about him being sexist or something along those lines. When in reality, this is a perfectly reasonable thing to do, if it's your money, you should have the ultimate authority in how it's spent. There's countless other examples. And in the reverse, if the woman makes all the money and the man stays home, NOBODY would have a problem with her dictating how he spends that money, they would probably even throw in a jab about him "not being a real man". Clear double standards, and the majority of society is guilty of it.

@justinwhite2725 it's sort of like the drug debate, and I know that sounds absurd, but when people say smoking weed is a gateway drug, they're only mostly wrong. If someone is a hopelessly addicted drug monster, they definitely smoke weed. Even if its not their thing, I doubt someone is gonna offer them a joint and they're like nah, I don't do that. It's the same with degenerate sex addicts, someone who just sticks their stick in anything round isn't gonna be like nah, that's a little boy, no thanks. They're gonna be like hey round hole, cool. Obviously not everyone gay is like that, but everyone who's like that is at least kinda gay.

@EvaluateAssimilate that's interesting that you brought up music, and I think that's a really salient point. I can't play any instruments, my brain just doesn't move in that direction for whatever reason, but I think anyone who gets really into any kind of art, and that can even be sports to a degree too, is going to get a more grounded perspective of life through that. Because you can't get better just by seeking immediate results, you have to do things the right way if you want the right results, and it takes time and real dedication. You have to do it yourself, other people can help you along the way, but ultimately it's up to you to put in the time, and you're not always going to know exactly where you are in the process, you have to have the humility to understand you're going to fail, you're going to have bad days, but that's all part of the process, you just keep working and doing things the right way, and positive progress will come with time. I think that's what's fundamentally lacking in these people (primarily women) who embrace being awful people, and are never satisfied or content. They're only seeking the results, they don't give a shit about the process. They want a "good man" but they aren't willing to work on themselves and be more attractive as a person. They want more money, but they're not willing to put in the time to work more hours or become more skilled or qualified. They want everyone to like them and be more interested in their stupid stories, but they're not willing to actually learn anything or become a more interesting person.

@E.Carbenia yea his transformation has been unreal, his old videos were so well thought out and formulaic, he took a neutral approach and just applied the BITE model, without having any predetermination at all, he just looked at the characteristics of a religious group and saw where the chips fell. And now he just finds clips of obscure religious zealots and pretends like they represent every single person slightly right of center, reads articles by CNN and NYT, and pretends like it's infallible truth, meanwhile completely ignoring and dismissing all of the ridiculous behavior by far left extremists. You can even tell the change in his overall demeanor, he's so emotional and easily distracted now, he used to be a lot more calm and calculated. Damn, it's so crazy he was probably better off as a Jehovah's Witness.

@l33tninja1 yep. When I was a teenager, and the girl I liked didn't like me, I didn't have 50 other girls I could talk to online and pay for dirty pics, I had to just sit there and think about it. The pain was real, lol. I know it sounds silly, and as an adult, it absolutely is silly, but in that moment it's real. You grow stronger through those struggles. Teenagers now can just forget about it 5 minutes later. And they probably think that's better, but then when they're 30, and they're still single, and desperate, and lonely..... I doubt many people will connect the dots.

@guillermoelnino I don't even know why I bother arguing with lefticles online if I'm being honest, they know they're wrong, they know they're lying, they know they're hypocrites, and they don't care. To them, it's all about their side winning and getting ultimate power. Any path they need to take to get there is fine in their morally bankrupt worldview. I try to justify it to myself by saying I'm not trying to convince them, I'm hoping that some small amount of other people reading the thread may see that I'm making valid points. But let's be real, that's wishful thinking. 99.9% of people have chosen their side, and I'm not even talking left or right, it's not even about that anymore. It's normal people and insane authoritarians. And of the small percent of people who do change their mind, it probably wasn't from some random thread on a YouTube video. So if I'm really being honest, I probably just do it because it amuses me.

@daCATgraphics you can always tell the difference between people who genuinely believe the religion or cult, the true believers are usually very polite and friendly, they want people to see them in a positive way so they see their beliefs in a positive way by extension, because they really believe that their way is a good way to live, they want you to have that too. I respect that, even though I don't agree. The crazies will intentionally be condescending, the "fire and brimstone" types, because to them it's all about the feeling of righteousness. They want you to hate them, to push you away from whatever woo woo they use as a shield, because that's more righteousness for them. I honestly believe that most vegans would prefer if there was only a couple hundred or a couple thousand vegans in the world. They don't want to be the only one, they still want to have a community where they can all circle jerk about how awesome they are and how much everyone else sucks, that helps reinforce their cognitive dissonance. But they're probably not happy about how much veganism has grown, if they were capable of being honest about it.

Leftism is, always was, and always will be all about identity politics. They fought for slavery, they fought for segregation, and now they're trying to bring slavery and segregation back. The only "switch" in the Democrat party in the US is when they switched from overt racism to covert racism after the civil rights movement, being aggressively racist towards minority sorta went out of style, so they had to use reverse psychology to manipulate people who are stupid enough to vote democrat. Now they claim to be on the side of minorities while they actively kneecap them by giving them every excuse imaginable to underachieve. Any demographic of people would start to have declining success as a whole if society told them none of their problems are ever their fault, not because there's anything wrong with that group of people, but because some people are just weak willed, in any demographic. Not everyone will take those excuses and run, but some people will, and over time the average success rates of those people will decline.

I was talking to a coworker the other day and criticizing the way she does some of our work, because she doesn't attach the paperwork to the items the way the rest of us do, so if we have to do something else we can pick up where we left off without having to remember it, and I told her she can easily forget a lot of shit or sort it out wrong that way, and there's a reason we attach the labels to it. And she just says "oh, it's ok, I don't ever forget". Dumbass. I tried to explain to her, of course you don't think you forget anything, because if you knew you forgot it, you wouldn't forget it. She just couldn't comprehend that concept. That's how these "journalists" are, they always think they're right, because they don't ever listen to anyone else's point of view.

A long time ago I was going with my then girlfriend to meet up with her coworker and her husband, Lyle. And when she told me his name I immediately asserted that he has funny facial hair, like a handlebar moustache, or a long, braided chin beard. Of course she said that's ridiculous and called me stupid for even thinking I could know that just based on his name. And of course, I was right, he had a handlebar moustache. She could barely contain her laughter to the point we eventually just had to tell Lyle the whole thing, with me grinning my ass off the whole time, he laughed his ass off too. She hated it when I was right about nonsense like that. So you can't tell someone's name by looking at them, but if you're super smart like me, sometimes you can tell what someone looks like by their name.

@apebass2215 like I said, with people of normal height, it really doesn't make any difference. A woman who's 5'4" would just have to use a bridge slightly more often than a man who's 5'9". And if she's good with a bridge, which presumably she is, since she has to use it more, it's no disadvantage at all. If you take 2 goofballs that play pool twice a year, one is 6", the other is 5'7", yea the taller guy is probably gonna have an advantage, just because they're goofballs that don't play pool, height by default will be a determining factor. But if you actually play pool, you come to a certain skill level where the height advantage is nullified.

I work at a kennel, and we have these printouts that have info about the dogs, whether they're aggressive or anything else like that. And there's been a lot of times where a dog just got there and the info hasn't been printed out, but I have to take them out for some reason, no issues. Later on when they have the info printed out I see that they're aggressive, and after that point I have issues taking them out with them snapping or growling at me. Same dog. When I didn't know he was an asshole, I had no issues, but after I know he's an asshole he suddenly starts being an asshole. The subconscious effect of false security is a very real thing, and I've been doing this a long ass time and deal with all sorts of dogs, I'm real calm and assertive and can handle pretty much every dog, it's not like I don't know what to expect, and I even know about this subconscious effect and it still happens sometimes. It's very bizarre. No matter how much you try to rationalize any kind of apprehension away, sometimes your instincts just take over and you can't override it completely.

@mikehannigan848 my ex girlfriend's mom was on a thousand medications, it was like that when I met her so I'm not sure about the total background, but her husband, my ex's dad died from brain cancer a while before I met them, he was only about 50. That's when she started on an anti depressant. So I can't say for sure, since I didn't know them, but she may not have even been clinically depressed, it's pretty damn normal to be depressed when your husband dies so young like that, you don't need medication for that, you need time, support, and therapy. That's normal. That's just being human. But the anti depressants gave her some freaky side effects, her skin got real delicate and scaly where just brushing past the door frame would tear her arm open and she would bleed like a fountain, so she had to get on a coagulant, that gave her blood pressure problems so she got on a pill for that, that made her hair fall out so she got on a pill for that, and so on and so on, everything she was prescribed to gave her a new issue she needed a new prescription for. She was a pilled out zombie. And all of this was most likely completely unnecessary.

@whenpigsfly8178 I know this is kind of a weird parallel to draw, but it's sort of like popular music. Have you ever heard 2 people who like country, or hip hop, or pop music talk about music? And yes, I'm painting with a broad brush here, but they typically don't, because they all like the same shit. It's the same 10 popular songs, depending on the genre. There's nothing to discuss. I've had so many vibrant conversations with other metal fans, because there's really not a mainstream for metal, there are some outliers that got big, like Slipknot or System of a Down, but for the most part not so much. So metal fans are actually very diverse, I probably like several of the same groups as any other particular metal fan, but there's also a whole lot of groups I may like that they don't, and vice versa. And more often than not, each of us will mention a group the other may not have heard, and we each end up learning a new group in the process. This just doesn't exist with people who just follow the "current thing", and yes, music is a pretty silly, surface level example, but it's also indicative of personality in a way. I'm willing to bet most of the wokies are the same with music as they are with politics, they don't have any interesting opinion at all, they just follow along with what everyone else likes.

@notsoberoveranalyzer8264 yes, luck is definitely a factor, to varying degrees depending on the circumstances. To use the restaurant example, since it's something I have personal experience with, and I feel like you probably do too, you can do everything the right way and go absolutely nowhere. And sometimes you luck out. It has more to do with the higher up positions than anything to do with you, most of the time the store managers and assistant managers are there to stay. The company has invested so much into them to put them in that position, in most cases they either have to fuck something up monumentally, or just decide to leave for personal reasons. Otherwise they're there for all eternity. And a lot of people will just sit in that job and do nothing for all eternity. So if you work at a fast food restaurant that has an established store manager, you're basically screwed, shift leader is about as far as you're gonna go. But maybe you luck out and you work at one with a store manager that leaves, and you take the job. But you've got to establish yourself as a solid shift leader to even be in the running for that, that's the part that isn't luck, that's within your control.

@HNedel the dealer and the casino would be the ruler in a game of poker, unless you're just playing with your buddies at home, in which case there really isn't a ruler, therefore there really aren't any rules. Obviously there are agreements, but if you don't like the agreements, or pseudo rules of the game, you can just leave. This doesn't scale up much larger than a friendly game with friends, because we can't really give people the option to just not participate in rules they don't like, because then they wouldn't really be rules at all, would they? And just because not everyone steals the pumpkins every single time doesn't mean everyone pays for them either. Likewise with basketball, the referee would be the police of sorts, he enforces the rules, the commission and the governing body of the NBA would be the rulers who make the rules.

@ThePreciseClimber that's like my brother's former in-laws, they're a snooty aristocratic family that owns a big industrial shipping company, but it was really his ex-wife's grandpa that built the company and made millions, her dad and eventually her brother essentially ran the business into the ground, they're in massive debt because the company hasn't been lucrative for some time now, but are still running on fumes just because there's so much still invested in it. But it's a house of cards, they still live like rich people, but they've been inches from financial disaster for years now. And they know it, it's like they're just milking the teat as long as they can before it all comes crashing down. It's actually hilarious, because they're all giant assholes. Literally and figuratively, the whole family has the physique of Fat Bastard from Austin Powers, the men and the women.

@user-gu9yq5sj7c not equal strength, obviously, but if women want equal pay at work, then they should be able to perform equal tasks. The women at my work expect me to do stuff like take out the trash and push the dumpster out the day before garbage day. Sometimes it's heavy, the dumpster is always a pain in the ass, but it's not THAT heavy, you don't have to be Brock Lesnar. It's not that they're too weak to do it, they just don't want to do it. And that's fine, I don't have a problem doing "man's work" like that, but the same women complain about women's rights and shit like that too, and say they want equality. You want equality, that means you take out equal amounts of trash and push out equal amounts of dumpsters. That's how it works. You have to pick a lane.

Leftists are like children, and society should treat them as such. You don't give a kid ice cream just because they're crying, you don't let them stay up until any hour just because they want to, you don't let them talk to you any way they want to, you have to be the adult, and step in and teach them how to act right, because they don't know any better, they're children. This isn't mean, it's just the right thing to do, and the compassionate thing to do. Somewhere along the way, society forgot that leftists are just kids that never grew up, and started giving them what they want. And here we are now.

@dragonlordpeter9006 that's fair, I would put System of a Down in the same category. Although the old old System was freaking amazing, the first 2 albums. After that they got kinda watered down. But both are definitely good groups, if I'm stuck listening to shit radio and either comes on, I'm like hell yes, this is the best I'm gonna get. Beats the hell out of Metallica or Seether, that seems to be pretty much all generic "alternative" or "rock" stations play. Metallica, Seether, Metallica again and then Metallica again, and Seether again. I'm slightly exaggerating, I know they play other groups, but they also kinda don't. Because Seether, Three Days Grace, Nickelback, Shinedown, and I'm sure several others you can probably name are all the same thing.

@julius43461 conservatives are the real progressives in modern terms, and I know that sounds antithetical, but conservatives don't believe in keeping all old traditions and policies all the time, no matter what, they just believe in the old principle, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." The nuclear family, judeo Christian moral values, a free market focused economy, these are all things conservatives want to keep, because they work, they've been proven over a large scale to be effective and help society strive, progress comes naturally along with these ideals. You don't just change something because a small percentage of stupid people don't like it, you have to have a better alternative first before you just change things that are already working well. You have to have a compelling case for why your idea would work better. Leftist progressives have not had a single good idea for decades, if they've ever had one at all. I'm not aware of an exception.

@VallornDeathblade she actually died this past April, cancer. She was 67, so it's not like she didn't live her life, but yea it was a rough road for her, she turned to drugs after the divorce and was basically a vagrant for the rest of her life, floated around between California, Texas, and Arizona, hooking on with different vagrants and dealers along the way. Lmao, she definitely had a lot of fun though, I guess, in her own kind of way.

@Beater Bike Channel MFGA the barely making it middle class is going to be screwed. That's what's really scary, I know a lot of people like that, my brother, some of my good friends. They own a house, good job, everything is stable but it's a delicate balance of a steady income, they have a lot of money invested in stuff they don't actually own. The rich are obviously gonna be fine, they're gonna get more rich, the poor will be fine, because they've always been poor, it's the middle class that's fucked, and some upper middle class will get by, but it'll be chaos.

@Dave_Parrott when people complain about media bias though, they mean that it's unfairly biased and dishonest. Think of a sports talk show, if I have a Houston based radio show, I'm obviously going to be biased for the Astros, I'm going to talk about them the most, I'm going to want them to win, because it's the hometown team. But that doesn't mean I have to completely ignore the rest of the league, and it doesn't mean I can't be critical if something isn't going right with the Astros. This is what we would call a fair and honest bias, I'm not trying to hide the fact that I like the Astros, but I'm also not going to bend facts to make it seem like the Astros are better than they actually are, and it doesn't mean I have to bash every other team.

@AleksandarIvanov69 that's a really good point, these kind of far leftist attitudes and ideas wouldn't even exist in adults, or at least would only exist on the very small fringe if the adults in the room told them to shut up and get a job, like they're supposed to. I think every 6 year old is a socialist to some degree, because you're greedy and selfish at that age, you just want more stuff. More more more, all the time, gimme gimme gimme. That's normal. But your parents are supposed to teach you that life doesn't work that way, because everyone else wants stuff too, and there's only so much stuff to go around. Whenever we see a generation that's largely a failure, look to the generation before them for answers.

@butters-vs-chaos it's really a weird and unique industry if you think about it, because you really don't have to produce a good product to make money, it just has to look good enough for people to see it. After they've already paid, it can be complete crap and you still get your money. It's not like most industries where you're relying on repeat business, it's one and done. And sure, if it's complete crap people will talk and nobody will see it after that, but most movies make the majority of their money the first few days of release anyway, and if you make too many polished turds, you'll get a bad reputation and people will stop seeing your future movies. But I think that's a part of why movies mostly suck these last few years, there's definitely a political element too, but more importantly I think studios and producers are just starting to wise up to the game more, they're focusing more on making a movie that just looks interesting based on the trailer and less on making a movie that's actually really good.

@Tential1 seriously, it's ridiculous. We see the success of the past, the US grew from an emerging country to the most powerful country in world history in just a few generations. We have the playbook, we know exactly how that was achieved. People want all the good things with none of the bad things these days, that's the problem, they're too immature to realize that just doesn't really exist in real life very often, to have the good things you want, you usually have to endure some bad things. That's just how it goes. So we can look back at the past and say it was cruel, and inhumane, and that's true in a lot of ways. But it worked, if your goal is wealth and power.

My parents divorced when I was about 12 I think, my brother and I stayed with my dad because my mom was bat shit insane. That's why they divorced, she wasn't like that when we were kids though, she gradually slipped into insanity. And I mean the actual version of insanity, not the self induced psychosis that's over diagnosed today, the classical, real mental illness, the kind that's just a chemical imbalance in the brain that can't be stopped. Runs in her family. And it was hard for my dad, obviously, 2 teenage boys and working 50+ hours a week. Luckily we were old enough that we could at least survive on our own for the most part, it's not like we were little kids that needed constant supervision. Being a single parent isn't impossible, but it's certainly not ideal. And my dad was not a normal person either, there aren't many people who could endure everything he did and do it as well as he did.

@Flynaneganshenanegans yea they've been pushing all sorts of tests on us too. Now if it's for something with mom, that she can manage while she's pregnant, sure, I understand that. Like "you're at risk for (x), so you probably shouldn't do (y)", ok, fair enough. But all the testing for potential conditions the baby could have, so what? If he has it he has it. We'll figure that out when the baby is born, and do whatever we need to do to help him be healthy. It's not gonna change anything. If he had Down's, he had Down's, that would be hard, but we would do it. Knowing ahead of time wouldn't change anything. They push all those test on you because they want to scare young mothers into having an abortion.

@SweatyFatGuy exactly, that's been my usual experience too, they all whine about how they can't find a good man, and act like it's the fault of the entire male gender. They don't seem to realize that good men do exist, most of them are just already in a marriage or relationship with a good woman. Doesn't mean there's no hope for single moms, and they're just old dried up used goods, but most of the time they're old dried up used goods, through their own bad decisions. And I believe people deserve second chances, despite what it may seem like in this comment thread, I don't consider myself an overly judgemental person, I've sure as hell made some poor decisions in my own life. But I've also never acted like I'm owed anything, and I understand that my own bad decisions have put me in bad situations. You live and you learn, and you're supposed to do something to improve your situation, not just cry about it and expect the world to forgive you and pretend like there's nothing wrong, when there's obviously something wrong.

@ponetastic I know someone who knows she's the problem, and continues making the same mistakes. I guess more accurately, it's more like she just chooses the wrong guys, it's not like she's awful to them or anything, if anything she's too good for them. She always dates loser guys that are no good, usually addicts, usually criminal records, in and out of jail or prison, they use her for money or whatever other form of stability they can. It goes bad, she's heartbroken, she swears she's gonna find a "good guy" this time, she does the same thing again. And she's completely aware of all of this, it's like a sickness.

@thetzarofthemountain8222 you really touched on the most important aspect of all this, what all the leftists really lack is a purpose. They think they're angry and depressed because they don't have any money, they live in this delusion where if the government would just take care of all their base needs, all their life's problems would be solved, but no amount of money or free handouts will ever make them happy, what they really need is a purpose. And for a lot of people that's work, it's the most common thing people use to contribute and get that feeling of accomplishment, but it doesn't have to be work, there are plenty of other hobbies and other things people can feel a sense of purpose from. That's probably where all the protests and activism comes from, on a subconscious level they know they need a purpose, they just can't properly channel it because they're not consciously aware of it, and it's a hollow gesture because none of them really understand what the fuck they're protesting for. None of it makes any sense, it's so self conflicting and hypocritical, they're just being weaponized by their handler's.

Back in the days when society was somewhat sane, "misgendering" would have been if you saw a surly lady with a lady mustache, and accidentally called her sir, because she kinda looks like a sir, or vice versa with a girly man. And they would probably get upset about that, because she genuinely is a woman, she just looks like an anthropomorphic foot with mostly masculine traits. Today, misgendering is basically doing the same thing, except it's a woman who's deliberately trying to look like a man, but you're not buying what she's selling, so you call her by what she actually is. These people have some kind of weird fetish for insulting themselves and trying to force you to play along.

I'm stoked about Amanda Nunes' fight in a couple of hours, she's the best female martial artist of all time, with really no debate or controversy around that statement, everyone knows it. She smashes everyone, and oh yea, she's also the first openly gay UFC champion. But nobody really cares about that, it's just a side note, she doesn't make a big deal of it and the UFC isn't woke garbage. She earned her spot on the GWOAT throne through hard work, and everyone respects her for it. Women can be great at sports too in their own regard, handling them with kid gloves and trying to push their achievements as though they're better just because they're women doesn't help anyone, it just makes them a laughing stock. Just let women compete the same as men and truly great athletes will emerge.

@DieFlabbergast leftists don't know the difference, because they've never earned respect through their character or merits, they don't even know what it feels like. So when they demand validation, and cowards bend the knee, they think that's respect because they don't know any better, but what they're really experiencing is unearned entitlement. Power. They're obsessed with power. They're too stupid to realize it, that's why they're never happy, they don't even want the things they think they want, so there's no way for them to ever be content, they think they want money and power, but what they really need is a sense of purpose and community.

@BlueBD the way I see it, diversity is only a strength if it's based around meritocracy, because by allowing people from different cultures to all compete, you have a larger pool of competition to find the best. If I'm the GM of a baseball team and I say "whites only", that's a pretty damn stupid idea, because I'm going to be overlooking a lot of black, Latino, and Asian players that could help me have a better team. If I allow all of the best players to play, I'm going to have a stronger team, but not because of diversity, because I've chosen a merit based team from the largest pool of talent possible. The left doesn't see it this way though, because they don't like meritocracy. They don't want diversity in order to get the best people and the best ideas, they want diversity so they can dilute the talent pool in all fields, and lower the bar for entry. Because leftists are useless, pathetic losers that have never been good at anything. Meritocracy means they will always be at the bottom, because that's what they are, they are the bottom of society.

The left are not proud, full stop. They're the scrap parts of society, they're not talented or skilled at anything, they're not intelligent, they're not hard working, they've never actually achieved a single thing in their life because they were good at it, and they earned it. That's why they're hateful, jealous, spiteful, they think they want things, and money, and that's part of why they're so unhappy, but the real reason they're unhappy is because they don't even know what it feels like to do a good job and earn a reward. So even when they do get a small amount of money, or a thing they wanted, usually because they just demanded that someone give it to them, it's not enough, nothing will ever be enough for them because they lack a purpose. And there's very little chance of any of them ever breaking out of the cult and starting to try and become a decent person. It's time we recognize that these people are nothing more than parasites, and dead weight holding society back.

@erueka6 it's really a great movie, I categorize satire into 2 broad categories - the "takedown" style, that's meant to mock and tear down a topic, or ideology, or genre, and there's the "love letter" style, that's more of a playful mockery of something the creators actually enjoy. The latter is usually better, because someone who really loves slasher movies is going to make a better quality satire of the genre, they know it, they know the silliness of it, and they know the fanbase too. That's what Beyond the Mask is, it's a really clever satire but it comes from love, and it actually stands up pretty well as a serious slasher movie, if you take away the documentary setup.

Don't fall into the communist trap of conflating climate change and man made climate change. Climate change is absolutely a real thing, that's not debatable, the only thing that's debatable is how much impact we have as a species, and what can be done about it. They intentionally conflate the terms to make anyone skeptical sound silly, and like we don't know anything about science. Personally, I think the utterly massive, incomprehensible scale of our orbit around the sun, the suns irregularities, the tilt of the planets axis, and all kinds of other factors I'm not smart enough to understand, probably have a greater impact than cow farts and F-350s. But what do I know, I'm not a scientist.

Yep, that's what they are. And they always project, all their rhetoric about how everyone to the right of Mao is a fascist is just them projecting, they're telling their minions that you don't have to say "I am a fascist" to be a fascist, and that conservatives are "enablers" of the far right, which is obviously just complete bollocks, but it absolutely IS true of the left, there are a lot more communists than the people who say "I am a communist", because everyone who isn't actively against movements like BLM are at the least dismissive and tolerant of communism, and as we've seen throughout history, the only reason you would be dismissive of communism is if you're either a communist or you're just so stupid you don't see what's happening around you. Absolutely everything about leftist rhetoric has at least some tangential relationship to communism.

@runnytimtim86none44 yes, that is the justification the left uses, but they're wrong. They're wrong because those 2 things are unrelated, to repeal the 19th amendment would take a completely separate process than the process to overturning Roe, so even if that does happen, it wouldn't have happened because of Roe being overturned. It's like saying if McDonald's raises the price of fries, then Burger King will too. Maybe so. But that has nothing to do with McDonald's raising their prices, tangentially at best, McDonald's can raise their prices without Burger King being effected at all, or Burger King could also raise their prices, and they can even lower their prices.

@vincentcarl9907 that sweet, sweet fetus juice. There's a lot of medical applications for stem cells, and needless to say, a lot of ethical questions. But the elites in society don't really give a shit about ethics. Have you ever noticed how politicians and celebrities never die young, unless it's an accident or an overdose or something like that? They don't die in their 40s from normal stuff like cancer, like us normies do. Seriously, think of all the people you know, whether personally or through friends of friends and family and all that, who died from cancer or some other disease when they were pretty young. Probably a lot of people. Now think about how often rich and famous people die like that. Not very often. And that's out of all the thousands of people who would make the news if they died, because they're famous, compared to just the people in your personal circle.

Acceleration Quanta that's..... Not quite why males are typically larger and stronger in mammalian species. It's because men are more expendable, so generally do the hunting and all the other dangerous shit, because if we die, the next generation can still survive, but if a pregnant woman dies, that's it, bloodline over. So males are the front lines, and sure, that can often mean battling other males of the same species for dominance, but that's a side effect, the main purpose is for us to better hunt prey and protect the family, or the community, or whatever other social structure the particular species is a part of. It's also why women have better color vision on average, and men have better peripheral vision on average, men evolved to be more keen towards prey and predators, women are more keen towards flora, because when ancient humans were "hunter/gatherers", that typically meant the men were hunting and the women were gathering. Helps to be able to tell the difference between shades of red so you know which berries taste good and which ones will make you shit out your insides and die a horribly violent and slow death.

I used to be more generous towards young socialists, there's a part of me that can understand why it's appealing if you're young, naive, and lost. But the more I learn about how it's being presented, and the more I understand the psyche of people who buy the grift, the less forgiving and generous I become. It's more than just being stupid and naive, socialists are immoral, awful people, period, zero exceptions. Anyone who even contemplates socialism for more than 4 seconds should never be trusted by any decent person, no matter how hard they try to repent and correct their mistakes. These are irredeemable people who should always be kept at a distance, for their entire miserable lives. Never let them anywhere close to you or your family, under any circumstances, they should be relegated to the outskirts of society and never allowed near normal people. An example must be set. Their life was already over as a civilized human being the moment they decided socialism was a good idea. They have no business participating in a society with normal people.

@Threemore650 oh yea, that's the part feminists don't understand, feminism hurts everyone, men and women. If you push back even a little bit, they freak out and pretend like you hate women or something, they don't seem to understand that society as a whole suffers due to feminist ideals. Sure, women couldn't do all the same things men could do back in the ole days, but they also led a safe, protected life, the way it's supposed to be. We didn't structure society that way to oppress women, we structured it that way because women are more important than men, societally speaking at least, on an individual level.

@angrynapolean3820 socialists always fail to understand that not everyone wants to "own the means of production", and not everyone is capable of that. Someone opens a restaurant, spends all the money for the lease, the equipment, the legal BS, all the rest of it, and he's supposed to share an equal amount of the revenue with some high school kid who picks his nose and plays on his phone all day? The only job that kid can do is one where someone else has already set everything up, and all he has to do is help. Minimal responsibility, no liability if something goes wrong, a steady wage for doing next to nothing. It's not a bad deal for the kid. And if the restaurant fails, he can get a job at a different restaurant more easily than the owner can start from scratch all over again.

@chadiverson3796 lmao, it's not quite that extreme, I'm wrong sometimes too, I make mistakes. There's just a general trend where when they're all saying to go left on an issue and I'm saying go right, it tends to end up being that we should have gone right. And they make every excuse in the book to avoid just saying "ok, you were right, we should have listened to you", they'll partially admit that I was right but make some excuse about how they were kinda right too, or how it's someone else's fault they were wrong, they'll even claim they agreed with me all along. The real funny part is it's mainly just the other long term girls who have been there a while, all in their 30s like me who are constantly trying to be right rather than make the right decision, all of the newer, younger employees tend to be more like I dunno, that one guy is right pretty much all the time, maybe you girls are all wrong?🤣🤣🤣 And then the adult girls just get mad at the younger girls and start rumors about them. And I laugh.

@Robertgtdf I never played until 3 was out, it's so bizarre, you get that dopamine hit when you get a legendary weapon, and I remember it hit me like a ton of bricks when I got one and then another slightly better one a few minutes later - hold on. This is the entire game. There's always going to be something slightly better, just usually not in such rapid succession. This is pointless. But yes you're right. Still not as pointless as any kind of woke purple dragon the wokies are chasing. It really is kind of the same. There's no finish line to whatever it is they want. They're chasing some reality where they never have to do anything, or try to achieve anything, and they just have endless money and toys and whatever else it is they want. But not only does that reality not exist, even if it did it would never make them happy. What they're really missing in their life is a sense of accomplishment, that they actually did something. They think they want the end result of accomplishing something, the reward, but what they really need is the accomplishment itself. And their puppet masters know this, that's why they push so hard against personal responsibility and meritocracy. They know if any of the wokies actually achieve anything they'll realize that it feels good, and they'll leave the cult. Thankfully for them, it's not very likey. Because they're all worthless losers that suck at life. So the odds of them actually achieving anything are essentially zero.

@Gormen Freeman one thing that makes more sense to me than the traditional left/right paradigm, or even the political compass axis is the pyramid structure, where you have liberal, fascist, and communist in the respective corners. Liberalism valuing liberty most, fascism valuing order and tradition, and communism valuing progress and equity. Shortfatotaku has a really good video breaking it down in detail, but it really gives a lot of nuance to where people actually lie within those confines, very few people are really going to be on an extreme corner, but pretty much all moderates in the west would be towards the top corner (liberal), both traditional liberals and conservatives, because they value liberty the most, but liberals would be a little towards the left side of the slope, since the value progress and equity more than tradition and order, even though liberty still trumps both of those, and conservatives would be towards the right side of the slope, since they value tradition and order over progress and equity, but still not as much as liberty. But it also explains why communists call everyone a fascist, and fascists call everyone a communist. Because they're both on the extremes, to a communist, progress and equity are ALL that matters, so whether you're an actual fascist that values tradition and order above all else, or you're a liberal that values liberty, it doesn't matter to them, if you stand in the way of progress and equity, you're a fascist. And fascists see anyone standing in the way of tradition and order in the same way. That's why fascists and communists can seem the same in a lot of ways. Because they are. Their tactics are the same, but to serve a different end.

I think even a lot of conservatives don't realize the subtleties, like how they've conflated "climate change" with man made climate change, to make it seem like if you don't subscribe to their narrative, you're denying climate change all together, which is complete nonsense, there are countless external factors that make the climate change over time, that's an absolute fact. I don't think anyone is genuinely skeptical about that, some people are just skeptical about it being all due to cow farts and F350s, and the only solution is to eat the bugs and submit to communism. Health care and health insurance is another, they distort the narrative by acting like if you don't have guaranteed insurance you'll just be left for dead in the streets, which is complete nonsense, American hospitals are legally required to treat anyone who has a health emergency, you just have to pay if you don't have insurance, or owe a bill. The list goes on and on, they distort the narrative of absolutely everything by giving it an intentionally misleading label.

@fifiadan I can't imagine. I've always tried to make sure I'm honest to myself, part of me can kind of understand where they're coming from, but I can't imagine being such a coward I can't admit uncomfortable truths even to myself. That would be a horrible way to live. The best example I can think of recently is watching The Captain, the docuseries about Derek Jeter, I love him, he's one of my favorite athletes ever, but towards the end hearing him speak about racial stuff and everything like that, I realized he's let some of the woke leftism leak into his perspective. Which was very disappointing. Not horribly bad, he's not as infected with leftism as someone like LeBron, but instead of just denying that I had to admit to myself that one of my favorite athletes is kind of a douche. But that's ok, I still love what he did on the field, nothing will change that. But if I had the mentality of a leftist, and an athlete I admired didn't agree with me politically, I would either deny that all together, or suddenly decide I hate him and he's terrible, and everything he's ever done is trash. Because that's how they think. Everything is tribal.

It's really creepy how we're seeing the leftist cult emerge as we speak, whenever I see them saying things about how they care about "human rights" and "anti racism" and all the other vague terms they use to virtue signal about how they like the good things, I think of how Christians will make blanket statements like "I'll keep you in my prayers", or "God heels", because Christianity is so old and widely understood, you don't have to fully explain these concepts, people know what you mean with just a brief statement. Leftists are ALREADY doing the same thing with their religious mantras, because to them, it's already a forgone conclusion, they like the good things, and you like the bad things, they don't even have to explain anything within themselves.

@KillerofGods that's sort of already the way it is, if you think about it. Who actually gets arrested just for doing drugs? How would that even happen? You pretty much always have to be doing something else illegal, or at the very least reckless or irresponsible, and you're also on drugs or in possession. Even if you get pulled over for speeding or something minor like that, and you have weed, you're probably not going to jail. Probably just a ticket or maybe probation or something. I'm more libertarian than conservative when it comes to drugs, on principle, but legally speaking I'm fine with where the laws are for the most part. A couple of minor tweaks could probably be good, but I don't think we need a massive overhaul, or to completely legalize everything. My opinion has shifted on that too, because I genuinely don't care if people want to do drugs, I don't think the drugs themselves are a problem. It's addiction, and the crime that tends to be attached to it that's a problem. But keeping it illegal keeps a lot of that in check.

@neonlightcabasag4043 yea I hear what you're saying, I would definitely prefer less middle men in my life, if left to my own devices I could probably make more money based on my skill. I was never trying to say everything is fine and our economy is working as intended, it's not, at all. It's a goddamn trainwreck. Has been for decades. All I meant is that if I were financially driven, early, I could have made something, and anyone could have. Opportunities still exist. You just have to be fucking vicious, and know from a really young age that's what you want. That's the people who get ahead now. That's what the problem is too, the government needs to step the fuck off, because when they get involved they always end up protecting the people who don't need protection.

@funkydiscogod leftists don't even understand what projection means. To them, it's any time someone says something they don't agree with. Best example I can think of in real life is an ex girlfriend's mom, who would always ask me the same thing multiple times, like if I'm ok with running an errand for her, or if I'm ok with what she's cooking for dinner. I would say "yea of course", and her response is "are you sure?" It used to frustrate me to no end, took me a while to realize it was projection, because she was one of those people who didn't always speak up when something upset her. If I asked her to do something that she didn't want to do, she would go ahead and say yes even though she doesn't want to do it. So when I say it's no problem, her mind hears "yes it's a problem, but I don't want to say it's a problem".

@brickbilly7019 so when in Rome, do as the Romans. And in western societies, that means noncery bad. I don't care if the nonce is Islamic, Christian, atheist, doesn't matter, noncery bad. That's an agreed upon standard of behavior in western society. When anyone other than an Islamic nonce does it, we have no problem saying noncery bad, but for some reason, when it's a Muslim, all the bleeding hearts come out with the "it's a different culture" excuse. Yea don't care, have you culture, just leave kids alone, abide by the law and societal norms of your current nation. Simple concept.

You silly Brits, with your royal family. The US would never allow such a thing, we elect our leaders, like Bush, the other Bush, Obama, Clinton, the other Clinton, Biden, Biden before that, and the other Bush, and the Clintons, Obamas, Bidens, and Bushes having positions of power mixed in throughout all that.
Hey...... Wait a minute.....

@SpencerLemay exactly, and everything is a zero sum game to them, they act like the amount of resources and services we have is stable and static, and we can just divide it all up to give to everyone who needs it. The part they don't understand, or just refuse to acknowledge, is that all that stuff only exists because people have to work to have money, at least to some extent. A lot of that is slipping away, the correlation between work and results is a lot looser than it used to be, before western societies started implementing more leftist policies. But it still does exist at least in some form, most people work either mostly or entirely because they have to work to have money and maintain their life. The more we give into "just gimme, because I want it" mentality, the further that's all going to slip away, until there's no stuff left at all.

I don't think you're getting to the root there, the real problem is that there are so many so called adults that are not, and cannot ever be suitable parents. That is not normal, and it is not ok. Nearly all adults should be able to become suitable parents if forced into the role, even if they didn't want kids when they became pregnant or got someone pregnant, that is the stable and normal default of the human species, sometimes we don't want things or we're not ready for things, but when it happens, we have to just get ready real quick, because there isn't any other option besides being a horrible person, and society is supposed to frown upon people who choose the "be a horrible person" fork in the road. Now, our society claps and cheers for them, and frowns on people who do the right thing.

@spsawyer22 it is an incoherent mess a lot of the time, and so inconsistent and dishonest. The pro life argument is just "abortion is murder, murder is wrong." Ok, that's straight forward, the only real argument against that is "I disagree", and then you have to give a sound reasoning for why you disagree. And the majority of pro abortion people cannot do that, all they have is appeals to emotion like "you just want to control women's bodies!" Or "you don't actually care about life after birth!" And a whole bunch of other sensationalist nonsense, ok, neat, even if those baseless assertions were true, that's not a rebuttal of whether or not killing a baby is wrong.

@hungryburger1170 I'm ready to burn the public school system to the ground and start over. It's a failure. And I don't know the answer, I'm pretty libertarian but I do believe in a very low, flat tax, and I do think certain things should be available to everyone, education being one of those things. A poor kid shouldn't be punished for their parents underachieving, having a basic education really is a good equalizer to help people rise out of poverty, and I believe in a good society, everyone should have that opportunity if they work for it. But the way we're doing it isn't working. We need to take these institutions back from the left, for the longest time the right has just accepted that pop culture and academia belongs to the left, we should not accept that, we should fight for it.

@eastbow6053 well that's a shitty excuse if I've ever heard one. I think just about everyone has had to deal with some abnormal shit over the last few years, you're not special in that regard. And I'm not trying to claim I'm Mr. Warm and Sunny, mayor of Pleasantville 24/7, I'm an ass sometimes too. But I own it, I'm not gonna try to make excuses or act like the person I'm being an ass to is the one who should be apologizing to me. If I'm an ass to someone it's usually because I genuinely don't give a shit about your opinion, and if I'm an ass and I do care about your opinion, then I'll apologize, no excuses or justifications, I'll just say point blank, sorry I was being an ass, that's my fault. Because that's how adults conduct themselves, regardless of how other people treat them, even strangers on the internet.

@YouTubeCensorsMe music is the same way, just not to the same extreme as TV and movies. Pretty much all the major pop stars are raging lefties, or at least pretend to be lefty. Because it's the only way to get ahead in mainstream music. The only reason it's not as extreme is because there's so many different genres, and the populous likes so much different stuff. So like with heavy metal in particular, if you're really good, nobody can stop you, you're gonna have a fan base regardless of politics. That's why you see guys like Phil LaBonte, he's an very outspoken libertarian, he's been on TimCast several times. I'm sure all the major record people would love for him to shut up, but there's nothing they can do about it, because his group All That Remains is awesome, people love them. They don't need any labels to prop them up, their music is all they need to stand on. Movies and TV are different, even if you're really good, you can't do shit if producers and studios won't touch you.

If she gives up some names, then those names would start giving up other names to get lighter sentences, and so on and so on. And these are likely some of the most powerful people in the world. So much money would be lost and change hands, it would likely cause a huge collapse to global economies, since these aren't people who are just based in the US. In short, it would be a sort of financial "revolution", not unlike what all the commies and anarchists have been mouth farting about for years now, just from an unexpected source. Which makes the whole thing extra hilarious, because nearly everyone in the leftist cult just completely ignores all of this, and even when pressed on it just dismissed it as a "right wing conspiracy", or deflects and makes it about Trump. They're morons.
