  206. Some youtube videos aren't exactly the most "reputable" sources. There are a million Youtube videos about how "Net Neutrality is the only things keeping the internet good!" and all of it just typical talking points about the subject, none of it is any refutation of any of the rationale for repealing Title 2 regulations, which revolves around the fact that ISPs are actually able to be reasoned with and can be reigned in with boycott or en masse complaint- while companies like Facebook have a CEO that's trying to become president, and track everyone's data, and scan your face to see if you're 'suicidal' (look it up), and Youtube is cracking down on content that has "swears" and that talk about anything from "queerness" to "Trump", and and AI that gives those videos points based on pointless shit, essentially bubble-wrapping content and silences people's voices, and all the while nothing gets done about anyone's complaints, and these companies like Twitter and Google run rough-shod over people's freedom of speech and expression, for the sake of advertising dollars- all which leads them to want to crack down even more and more in order to scratch back those ad-bucks- then comes the political element of most of the news media (a worry, nevertheless, regardless of Net Neutrality or no), which these companies are practically in collusion with, in order to make $$$ and to stultify the political process and stifle dissenting voices, in order to manipulate people into them surrendering more of their ability to use the internet as a FREE SPEECH PLATFORM...making a platform only for those who kowtow to partisan opinion, lest face the consequences of being run off the net. The ISPs are simply more so beholden to their customers, than the tech-firms vying for control of, what they see as "their" internet; these firms have to manipulate their user base to even hope to remain solvent AND please advertisers, because they are partisan hacks, in the business world. ISPs are not insolvent, like these tech-firms without "liberal conscience"- which is a farce. Proof is in the pudding. See: James Damore.

  401. @Eugenio Mollo Then why does the skit portray these people as complete strangers? I'm presuming because of the format of Tiktok being fast, abnormally narrated with almost little to no narrative involved [basically, it's tantamount to a modern picture show]. That's why, I assume. I don’t care how many fetishes you choose to interpret this as, because a skit where a stranger ties a woman up and has sex with her is obviously going to be interpreted by most as rape And yet it's not, just because a bunch of people want it to be cause it upsets them. If the skit wanted to portray any of these fantasies it should’ve been much more obvious, considering you’re the only one who interprets them this way You're actually the one interpreting things here. I'm just deconstructing your biases, because clearly you are only seeing what you want to see to endorse this kind of judgement that such "skits" are wholly evil, cause it's "definitely rape" they are trying to get to "come across" here, but that's just it, it could be something other than that [the most extremely vile thing your mind could overlay onto the video's content], and you just don't care to make the differentiation, cause you're offended already. Offended at what is, essentially, a crude joke. Perhaps it is offensive...perhaps it's even more than enough to be upset about; too raunchy, too many implications towards the sex act being taken advantage of, and in your mind, illegally [even though, clearly no "rape" or "simulation of rape" is occurring in those videos...no one is being forced to do anything, hence, not rape]. "Rape" might be implied, to you, cause what occurs in one "skit" is that a bunch of guys go into a booth and come out having fucked the girl in the booth: but the audience isn't given anymore details than that, and you're left to invent the rest...you invented "rape". So did a lot of other prudish idiots. Gonna have unsub from Charlie if he's gonna amass such a large scrub audience of morons. lol

  484. "and you can't debate that, because it's muh opinion." of course you can debate it. you can debate anything. we have set words for a reason you know, to communicate ideas. art communicates ideas. i don't need pedagogy or the education system to inform me of this fairly basic fact. and last i checked, in the US, it's a free country. the debate is on. i am just EXEMPLIFYING, and thus, giving and example of, the fact of art...it's just as if i said something contentious a conjecture as you can get like, we are all a mote in giant void in space, and that statement although completely meaningless in the objective measure; -- in and of itself however, it's an accurate and true statement of fact. this is the art of dialectic, the precursor to rhetoric. please make good use of it, and don't just berate the concepts but attack them with better ideas. Marxism is not art. and saying art is subjective is not Marxism. that idiotic slogan is a confused rhetorical idiom that really needs to die. how the fuck is art not subjective? you tell me wise guy. it's also got an objective measurement, A what it sells in the market place, and B it's intrinsic value -- for A, you have institutional critique that presents a bias in this mass media marketplace -- for B, it remains ever thus it was. because art is as old as man, and it's always been subjective...how the fuck is a fucking cave painting not a subjective work of fiction? they are priding themselves on the hunt, these dwellers...so explain to the class how that isn't subjectivity, to paint animals to hunt in the prospect of future hunts. go ahead now. "Calling someone scared for trying to protect their country is ironically a scare tactic, a pretty useless one at that." precisely, you're scared. which makes you foolish. everyone is already enacted. calm your fucking tits, and stop flipping out over "art" demonolatry. it's apolitical. you fucking gorm. "I never said performance art is all satanic, just this particular instance of it, but from what I can tell, it's mostly psudeo-intellectual garbage." exactly! so wtf are you prattling on about? "I'll have you know, I'm about as far right as you can get, buddy." right, you're a right-wing libtard, i know. PS: i thought i was on a different video, honestly. but man you are an idiot. art is subjective as much as it is, in the critique and curation of art, objective. you need to impart subjectivity while doing art, otherwise there is not art. how do you know what art is objectively, if you do not take from your own imagination the very art you're aiming to make? you can't just take something OUTSIDE of the mind, and call it art- unless you're talking about anti-art. man you are stupid. sorry but you are. when i paint a still-life, am i not using the subjective notion of the color composition and perspective that I WANT to achieve? not what the world objectively denotes as the objects in my art, because those objects already exist independent of my painting said objects. man you are fucking dumb as FUCK. and full of mendacious shit, too. no one here is even arguing that modern art is even "good", subjectively...just that you can't escape the fact of it being subjective. facepalm

  579.  @michawkwalter4205  Well, wait now...there is some evidence for the notion in social science: what dude guy here is giving the class, offering it, as it were, is what is called a "pseudo-opinion" [look it up]. There is also something called "social-desirability bias". [I would wager there is probably some kind of "desire-elusiveness bias" one can concoct, as well.] But see the "hierarchical structure of the big five" [that is, the neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, extraversion, openness (to experience)/intellect — Dr. Grande, anyone?] and "subordinate higher-order factors" (John Digman — et al). There are those propounding the "HEXACO model of personality structure" which contested these findings [so there is criticism here, and then some]. What these "higher-order" factors are provides that the orthogonality to a patterned derived from research and then that which is structured [and "aggregate factor of personality"] into this model. What Digman proposed was that this 'orthogonality' was not actual and only apparent and seeming, and whereby he provided that there are "meta-traits" [α & β] and this is what is being referred to, even if these findings are perhaps contentious [???] or at least disagreed upon, by critics. This "pseudo-opinion" has been put into a sort of online-discourse of metaphysics, placing a transcendental value on "alphamalehood" (forgoing the actual research which provides that "alpha and beta" are two sets of a dynamic interpolation derived from the "big five personality factors/traits", which has a lot more explanatory power, at least)...why? well, that's the end of the speculation. People are retards."The existence of a unitary aggregate personality factor appears to be problematic from an evolutionary perspective" is an agreed upon status which I think says pretty well what this concept is truly about. Trying to tackle complex systems [oh my] and evolutionary progression, online. lol

  681. It stems from France and Germany and the UK. They ARE the deep state. They have interagent saboteurs, who consolidate with, you guessed it, the Dutch...see Brussels, for Historical Germany through Contemporary EU "re-structuring" for multiculturalism. And the Swiss banks store everything that isn't sorted out by the internationals like IMF and BIS, in off-shore accounts. They also do other "things" off-shore...Medicine is a huge amount of the interest for corporate and financial institutions, and monarchies, alike- gotta keep researching to make more drugs/substances to keep erm 'people' alive, you know. Plus, all that research is useful too. The education system is rife with abuse, but hey, that Prussian Public Education meets Common Core "Pedagogy of the Damned" (indeed), you know you've got huge human resources coming your way, ESPECIALLY in the US of A, the most prosperous Christian predominant nation in the freshly exploited West. Hehehe. The 'good people' in the Socialist Fabian Society, and the Freemasons, they keep to the Abrahamic tradition, and Aryan, tradition of culling and enslavement, though those principals have adapted over time to new power structures, given the amount of wealth that can be extracted from the populace. Marxism? Another mind virus perpetrated for the sake of enslavement. Human tribal nature tends to be competitive, and at best, bigoted, and even hate-filled. We work best when in competition and friendly diplomacy, but still, wars break out; why? Because of power brokers, that's why. Whether bankers, or tribal leaders, or kings. This game has been played for how long? People have extricated the rules in finite detail (see: Game Theory). Now enter the occult. This is the place where notions of the "quantum" can effect "the game", which is really, as it's discovered, are just a set of arbitrary rules, defined by "laws", and governed by those "laws", which are symbols (and language/communication), and also the finer laws of physics, which convolve and involutes (self-undulates vortically) within the finer details of mind, body, and "spirit" ("consciousness" to be more precise). The Muses of History and Astronomy (among others, of equal import) are of the nine spheres of the logos. These are effected by the same forces which promote these symbols/archetypes (memes) and their creation/laws/mechanics/movements -- said movements, again, self-undulate into the rest -- all effects are concocted into the cauldron of 'the finer things', the 'void', 'chaos' (although- these terms are generally about more specific things, they are not strictly interchangeable, that is; however- they do denote a particular premise here), and imbibed, this, into the wells of lower consciousness, to remain, until the search for quenching, the slaking of thirst, begins anew- and because everything is also always coming apart, indefinitely, even as you dream, and then, coming back together again (which is probably WHY you dream); as one is naught an observer, this can be speculated to theoretically be true, but I believe it is; because of this process of constant rebirth and death, that one can 'pierce the void' (the finer <void> now, that pertains to 'darkness'), and thus align themselves with the contexts of the times in which they live. They can understand how to create the world around them from a circumspect, circumambulated, and circumvallated, 'inner', point of view- that of 'self-will' or 'self-determination'. "Free will". This liberation of the mind from the predominant body 'soul' of the culture/civilization which the person finds themselves, creates a being "beyond good and evil", the natural state, that which religions have always tried to cover up, since the Sumerians, and even past them. Because of this great secret. Power struggle is only dominant within class structures, and that's only because there needs be a 'ground' for this 'charge' that is a sublet for the institutions to base their power structure on. Again, Marxism insidiously promotes toppling this structure with an abased materialist structure that couldn't possibly be any worse than the already promoted "secret structure". Here in lay the conundrum. The Aryans protect (the real ones) themselves by way of this knowledge and promote an "institutionalization" of cultures (reforms) as Imperium, a 'false liberation', attenuated of course to the natural course of things, as a subliminal 'crutch', because these forms of institution are natural bodies of man, but if they are corrupted, they become defunct. We all know this. The secret is in keeping the knowledge intact for only a sum few, that is, the knowledge that what is the 'goings-on' (happenings) of the world-stage (especially the world-island of Eurasia but also, particularly the Middle East (obviously) and it's spill throughout Europe into the contemporary "English Isles"; which had not come under full institution until later; or never, in the case of China (save INWARDLY) or some parts of the Middle East (Islam being a primary counter-repulsion of the Abrahamic tradition- a brilliant strategy, though equally as brutal, dictatorial, antique, and dangerous, for contemporary times; thus, all these are an enemy, contrarian to the power structure.... There are also those, who by way of connecting with these locales, through History (some of which eventually WERE institutionalized, begrudgingly) have spread the holes of infrastructure to define an "inward circumvallation", as a survival strategy (see: Anarchism/Sufism -- for a more motivated long game, see Marxism/Islam -- an attempt was made with the Thelemic off-shoots, though who's to say who commanded that....), which is just an off-shoot of the Christian (anagogical-strategy) and the Kabbalic system, which, admittedly, is a folk system; it has off-shoots which are "goodly", and then those which promote only elitism and serve their masters for the sake of said survival strategies (in the case of Jews, it's strictly religious- a Romanesque [not ironically] tactic, that works- lest you actually do what Rome did. Funny that, Israel promotes that counter-repulsion strategy as well; has anyone ever thought of this? Multiculturalism? sans Israel. But Israel is 'the body', remember. Not a nation- but the nation is a body to, SHH, don't tell anybody....) ---As long as there are secrets the power structure can fail, and simultaneously, can also best thrive. It's the greatest secret.

  823. thing is it's still dirty business. people can be willing to do their own thing...why go through Fine Bros to establish yourself in such a ridiculous fashion (but that's besides the point) -- all i'm saying is, they're gonna OWN and make a KILLING off it all, if it went down, and people mostly get squat out of it, and they own it ALL. you have NO SAY in your content. sure that already happens on youtube, but that's again, not the point...the point is, they are not righteous, they aren't doing to "help" people get recognition, they just want the $ and the speculative business opportunities...and then think if they do sue people for something like that, then people who are WILLING can ONLY go through THEM. and all over people "Reacting" to things. i can tell you, if they were able to go through with this "world" thing, i don't think they'd have the legal standing either to try and claim that someone putting up a video of them reacting to teens reacting (let's say in school about something say a problem they have), and giving their reaction to it, on video, and calling it "Teen reacts to Teens reacting" is somehow illegal, unless they literally could copyright the word "react" -- which is part of their logo, which is what they're trying to claim, the whole "REACT" thing -- which is to them the goal, to stop being from being able to claim that this "thing" is "of the 'REACT' genre" (which it's not a genre -- there is no "REACT" genre of entertainment or art or media). it's stupid.

  923. "It's not subjective because cave paintings are objectively shit, are you going to try and tell me that cave paintings are better than the Mona Lisa?" that doesn't mean art isn't subjective, shit heel. there is an objective measure to the critique of art. art is not defined by what objective measure it reaches in the mind of critics. it's basic "objective measures" in the marketplace (where art is taken in the most objective sense) is either A what money it can pull in for the sake of publicity, B how it is viewed by the public and critics/ie how it is critiqued, and C in what form does the art take, and how does it compare to other works, in terms of A & B. that's it. most of which can be argued is unnecessary for art to be "good". "good" art, as defined by most people, is art that effects them somehow..."fine art" i'd argue, like painting a portrait or a landscape, in the classically trained setting, is more or less a backtracking to the past -- it's a fine thing, but it's "fineness" needs not be measured as the objective "good", seeing as though there are other works that can achieve what there is to achieve in art, and that is, to fuse together connections and make a statement on the world. shrug either that, or look nice. classical art does both. but "looking nice" that's an aesthetic, that varies between people there...the more you fucking know, i suppose. "The part about not debating that because it's my opinion was part of the mocking of such a person who would claim that an internet post is art, that completely went over your head. " PS: no one is debating that an internet post is art; i simply ignore such retarded notions. i didn't say it, you did.

  931. nice parroting of a narrative. 10 gold stars. yeah, he was proven wrong in hindsight, and hindsight is always 20/20. he as wrong. he wasn't a suspect (Trayvon) because he wasn't suspicious, because he didn't do anything wrong, hence NO REASON. you can't just assume there was a reason, because even if there was the instance of crime occurring in the neighborhood, there was none that TRAYVON HAD DONE. also, he was a night watchman, but he was off-duty. and if he WAS on duty, he'd have been required to leave his gun at home, as per the watchmen laws in the state (look it up). and that lovely narrative, oh Trayvon lost, but he came back...like i said, Trayvon was fearing for his life, he didn't want some psycho following to his house, so he went back to make sure he wasn't followed and saw that he (Zimmerman) was still covering his (Trayvon's) tracks, in the park adjacent to the street he resides on, which was a stones throw away from his home, which was making sure psycho didn't know the location of; then he made sure that he confronted Zimmerman because in the admittedly unfortunate culture of diss that surrounds black culture and black youth especially, and he felt the need to fend off who he thought was a potential threat - street rules - rules of which i don't approve of, but i don't spin the narrative to make Zimmerman totally innocent when it's clear from his intent and his lack of foresight that he shouldn't have tried to attempt what he did, because it was fervently stupid. and only stupid people support it.
    2
  932. you are still just spouting the mimicry of the case, i am telling you, however, that if you have brain enough, you could see that Trayvon was provoked and even though he acted outside of the law, Zimmerman pushed him to do so, because Trayvon literally was being followed all the way to his house, by this psychopath. sorry that sense and logic does not sit well with you, but dude, i know what you're gonna do...you're gonna come back and parrot the same dumb shit, right? i already know Zimmerman was found innocent dumbass, which is fine, Trayvon fucked up himself, but that doesn't end the conversation, unless you're i dunno, are you a Trumptarded constitutionalist lib? Zimmerman didn'tNEED to follow Martin, to come close to confronting him, because he THOUGHT Trayvon was breaking the law somewhere, but HE WASN'T, so his REASONING (you know what that is right?) his REASONING was faulty. meaning his REASON for getting involved with Martin was faulty. meaning that him going up to Martin provoking Martin (legally, nonetheless) whilst carrying a gun, whilst proposing that Martin was breaking the law, while he wasn't, and following to his home, which would scare anyone, well, it wasn't justified. no matter what crazed insane way you wanna make believe it happened, it's still a matter of ZIMMERMAN WAS WRONG. MISTAKEN. if the tables were turned and Trayvon had a gun, while Zimmerman attacked HIM first, even just a brush with battery, and Trayvon shot HIM...it'd BE EVEN MORE JUSTIFIED because ZIMMERDICK ACCOSTED TRAYVON by FOLLOWING HIM WITH A GUN HE PLANNED ON USING ON HIM with no JUST CAUSE FOR DOING SO. if the tables were turned, Trayvon would be the "true" mascot for gun carry and stand your ground self-defence laws. the fact that so many idiots that shouldn't be yapping so much, though they're the loudest of course, they ALSO shouldn't be praising a dick hole for making what mistakes he made, but since he stands for gun laws, idiots everywhere who don't understand nuance think that they've made a huge leap...yeah a huge leap in logic, by being idiots. support for Zimmerman is like the blind leading the blind. it's just pure unadulterated stupidity. he's the man because he goaded on an attack? the real proponent here for gun laws would be "TRAYVON - IF ONLY HE A GUN" - yeah, if only he had been attacked by the guy doing the accosting, instead of jumped first, like in any order of natural selection, a value the self-defence supporters should be a proponent for, as that's what it's all about, defending yourself from would be attackers, and Zim was ready to attack, he sure wasn't gonna ARREST anyone, so what else could he do? he was told by police to stop following Martin, but he didn't...and Trayvon should have been the one to have been brushed, and even slightly, and then just loaded in on him, cause then AT LEAST, we'd be having a real debate, and not a pissing battle over how Zimmerman is a hero for "standing his ground". Trayvon ALSO "stood his ground"...only without the same legal precedent. but where is the LEGAL precedent for following someone mistaking them for a criminal and then bringing your gun with you to shoot whom is presumed innocent until proven guilty? if he had already profiled him as guilty, then that sets the precedent that he was 100% wrong, until he chose to act like he was correct, which meant essentially that he was stalking Martin (but we aren't talking those laws, because it's not your platform), and for no reason OTHER THAN to possibly shoot him, which was the intent if things got out of control, WHICH IS WHAT HE PLANNED FOR ERRONEOUSLY. see laws are made by man...they are dictated, in their construction, by logic. it's too bad so many idiots that want simple black and white results, that don't actually make any logical sense, have such  a precedent of idiocy to stand firm by - you know - so they can feel better about if they ever are stalking a kid whom they think is gonna burgle someone's home, and then ends up shooting them in an incident involving them confronting you and asking you to stop stalking them; see people like yourself would love the excuse to say "i'm not stalking, not by any legal definition, so i'll just keep menacing you, until you get home to call the cops, don't worry i'm not a burglar or arsonist or anything; even though i'm hypocritically assuming that everyone else can possibly be and that i should go hassle them for that potential possibility -  but please continue on to your residence so you can call the cops on me, and legally stop me from following you - oop wait you brushed my shoulder? boom legal man, totally legal, you saw him, he assaulted me!" that is what people like yourself think is logical. it's astounding. you think Zimmerman had reason to shoot, but i'm telling you he had no reason to follow. he no reason to be there, and to basically stalk Martin. he initiated EVENTS THAT TRANSPIRED, NOT MARTIN. Martin was innocent until confronted with Zimmerman whom was there , following him to his home (which no sane person would want anyone doing in the middle of the night, to their home). point is, you're glad that what happened happened because it fulfils your agenda, not because it's righteous. otherwise, you'd be able to see that Zimmerman was wrong to begin with, in his actions, meaning in hindsight, he was the one in the wrong and NOT Martin.

  949. it doesn't piss me off, so much as it does make me respond. religion is just an old-school form of philosophy. people always thought. they had to. they didn't just do things for no reason...from cave paintings to just about any other relationship between them and the All. but in a sense, i see what you're getting at, it's sort of a form of abuse, but...not in the sense that it's damaging to the practice, but that it's influential to a lot of stupid people. lol. stupid people whom are proud and idiotic. wipe away that, and you've got a legitimate practice of spiritualism philosophy, that's just simply different. though, to your point, however, i do think these religions can be abusive to people. which is a problem. mythology is deeper than simply marking scientific knowledge, it's about the human condition...i wish people still had an appreciation for that. and dance...just look at it now...vomit worthy, in most circles, more mainstream circles. and worship...well, particular worship is very critical of people, within circles outside of the mainstream religions...this goes back to my idea that religions do, indeed, end up causing people to abuse people; with their stringent rules. i mean, don't take drugs...? fuck that shit. wine, and mushrooms and plants...they are the shit. i can't believe we still live in a world where most of these things are either illegal, or just abused...ok, so that does piss me off. =P so i guess you're right, in that regard, i think. well...religion still can't fight human nature. just look at...just look at the world. look at food for example...one of the biggest things in culture and for enjoyment, and of necessity, and religion never took that away; not all Earthly pleasures are reliant on the old-ways, the occult...the gyres are always turning. people are always learning. i'm sure "pagan" elements within the cultures of the world are growing in popularity, exponentially, with the advent of the internet...these things cannot be killed, simply because they've been incorporated into the major religions. secularism...is inherently an even bigger danger to this elements, though, is it a bad thing, overall? no, of course not. we need to retain some sense of what is magical for our minds to complete the thought-process, i truly believe...i think that logic, for example, will never actually fill the holes...as it were...nor will God. it's all music to my ears. the antithetical feeds the thetical.

  1064. are they still calling it a murder? and yeah, i wouldn't act like that with police, and i've only been stopped once. i was pleasant even though the officer wasn't, but i got let off without even a warning. i know how to "disarm" cops (i'd like to think). but still, not everyone has that luxury. she didn't have to put out her damn cigarette, is the problem. she didn't have to. it's no one's business, if she's only being stopped for a signal light warning. and that families behavior, if what you say is true, is frankly shameless. it's disgusting all around this story. PS TYT aren't perfect. no news outlet can be trusted 100%, you need documentation (ie that autopsy) or some other evidence to show, to trust that what has occurred is real. TYT breaks news stories that that other outlets flat out ignore. i like my alternative media, for that reason. so i can't blame them for focusing on the platform that they support, which is to highlight racism in the media, for the most part, and across the field, from cops to the public. i admire that. although they are not always right, and they probably can address that, in terms of their particular slant. but what organization does? and also, i'm really not into the news that much which is probably why i use alt. media...it's just more of a platform for me, here, to discuss topics and whatever...i'm not gonna go balls out to make sure i have all my information correct, because i don't have the time nor patience, but i TRY to come with an open mind, so thanks for not taking this exchange too seriously; it's frankly my favorite kind of exchange.

  1102.  @ReverseTranscriptase  New Sections On The On-Coming Socium & It's Affects §1: Pro-socium advancemen: pur[il]e supernumerary aggregate development [P(lace)-SAD] for short. All is numerical econometric force; life is valueless, all numbers must conform to the socium of affects. §2: The closer man gets to the socium, the more the synarchic fold of the "elite" [so-called, ostensibly] reign supreme; the Capital will always be the utmost top earners, as per the baring of the "job" [so-called] and it's antecedent "belonging" to hierarchy. §3: Someone who is the "ideal perfect man" president- this expectation is what leads into the socium [it's also a false expectation and a false premise]; assuming that we need a completely transparent leadership for "the proletariat" or for some ideal "utopia". §4: Allow this schemata to be detailed through-and-through, you'll have a rudderless leadership who's only regard is towards the socium. One will be taken advantage of, the proletariat will continue to espouse disdain for the upper classes; until they rule "the ideal leadership", which will be a continuance of the communism of old. This, or, more and more of the already elite leadership in the world will decentralize out of sight and mind, further, as they use puppet-leadership, to enact the socium and it's details. §5: The Trisons quotidian of the anarchic dune-warmachine, Islam, prevails by introducing themselves 'as Other', in the process of Lamassu [the Super-Bull] [eg, the "anti-"bull] and []hole-complex. §6: If power is racism then racism is the only way. It's really pathetic that leftists cannot fathom this simple logic, which a: evinces how wrong they are and b: evinces how, in the future, they will have to continue fighting, as one group will always be "in more need" than another. §7: People hyperbolically use the term 'racist' to denote things in a comedic fashion; this gets domesticated, in the hyperbolic fashion, and then is made more hyperbolic, leaving us with a societal disconnect. §8: People [will] foment that 'they themselves' [their "race"] are under attack, by way of prevarication and lies, in order to raise racial tensions. §9: What is seen as "racial tensions" is really just the incurring of the socium of affects against the "rich North", in the progressively federalizing [in Europe; and continually bloating in the American north], and it all can be summarized in this epigram; The rich are marred by the poor, so thus they are hated. The poor are marred by the rich, so thus they are hated. §10: One cannot all at once say "you need money to make money" & "you can pull yourself up by your bootstraps" and make sense. I guess this is why the UBI is A: up for debate as per it's use in institutions, & B: why it [& cryptocurrencies] are so contentious [until federalized]. §11: The proponents of the advent of the on-coming socium, and it itself, are bullies. §12: All people "all working together" is a misidentification of humanities composite. Majorities are majorities and minorities are minorities. There is no changing that but through foist and force.

  1103.  @ReverseTranscriptase  On The Racial Implications Of The Incurring Socium Of Affects §1: An example of the misplaced notion of economics over disparity. It's never the same thing. Disparity is willed into the economy, but at the depths of depravity, and that is, even political depravity, of the sort [especial] that relates to common kind- the breakdown is thus... §2: Family breakdown is subtle, it [family] is the last to go, but the first to feel the trembling of inversion. The first to go is the axiom of the "common man" [read Marx], then of "woman and children" [as they become subpersonal stock- first by way of welfare, then by way of ordination]. §3: This leads to everyone becoming "worker". Not "breadwinner" versus "housekeeper" or, in other words, husbandry in the most commonest sense of the term; no, but "worker", for the state, at first, then lastly as serfs to the synarchic fold of syndicalist corporations or "factions". §4: Only then does the family breakdown find it's completion- and only then does the trend go from normalcy to deadpan disaster. First, this is enacted by the socium, by the centralized forces of world federalization engaging the peripheral proletariat in asserting themselves. §5: This is promulgated by the strata of neoliberal turfwar which aims to stultify the proponents of populist movements [and this is merely one angle in a many-fold complexity], and foment the peripheral proletariat with strength [in 'numbers', yet again] and "courage" [to join the bourgeoisie]. §6: This leads to further incursion from the South & from insurgent forces, from other nations which pose a threat to US intelligence & integrity- a ballast of the navigational jetty which then acts as a Trojan Horse- wars across the heartland converge on the west, in involution. Thru this, the peripheral proletariat provide a tunnel entrance [so to speak] to the narrow divide in the conjunction of war-zones, of classes, and of nations, and races. §7: All by way of asserting the peripheral proletariat against the west, and thru incorporating them into the bourgeoisie, does the chips fall.

  1104.  @ReverseTranscriptase  The Similarities & Differences Of Fascism & Communism Right now the "antifa" people are a threat to American sovereignty. This "Anticenter-Fascism" is not good for the country. It's growing (on both the right and the left) because the left keeps fucking insinuating itself in debacle after debacle, pissing off the right enough for them to become "rampantly individualist" from the base of the 'center-right' on the political spectrum, and thus separate from the left entirely—a bifurcation. Which is by title alone extensive in it's nuance, because it is this that is actually an attempt at the impossible; that is to say, the two divisions share in remarkable quality the essence of what both sides want to achieve, yet vary in the goals to achieve for themselves—and that's still putting it simply. Yet the Fascist strives for (thus in likemindedness they strive for) what is essentially an antithesis to the Global-Centrist model, given the current political spectrum. It's revolutionary, it's tendency is to be disdained, it involves a massive disproportion of violence (throughout History, this is a fact)—and it revolves around idealist solutions that DO NOT WORK for long term success, unless they were to enact a virulent (and in this day and age, possibly world-ending) war—the selfsame as the Communist, which aims for non-violent coercion, in the striving for autarky (whether they achieve that or not History tells us is an entirely different matter); that is, whether collectivized, a la Communist existence, versus, "more independent" a la Fascismo methodology, for the state. Now notice, there are two distinctions here: One: Fascism focuses on "independence", and there is a, let's call it, "rampant individualism" of the Fascistic flair—and yet they at most collectivize the labor's wealth at the very highest state levels—in order to fund it's activities, all while maintaining it's self-providing state. It relies on everyone's "individual" effort, but no less than "everyone's"; similar to.... Two: Communism focuses on "collectivism" and there is a notion of the state being abolished and the individual being insuperable in importance, a la Fascismo—but without the import of the state—thusly requiring, in theory, no one to supplant one another in their collective importance. Thusly, like the Fascismo, they are needed in a collective state to provide the necessities of the whole of the individual—this is what the Greeks taught, at some point, I do believe—point is, that it eventually requires something akin to a "state". [A last point is definitely that statism has nothing more than the social requirement, period: nothing akin to a imperialistic state apparatus, but the State often adapts that form. And the social requires the economic at that end, but that means that the conversion from socialism and/or anarcho-capitalism (in a given racial/national body) and then into either totalizing it's pursuits of resources and juridical/legal components or absolutizing the universal imperative of racial/national or religious directives: which then lead to a contradiction: this is why you see such forms taking place in Russia, as of now, and in China, still yet].

  1105.  @ReverseTranscriptase  On Capitalism: An economic system has as much conscience as people give it. People consume so much, that's why you see the results you get, but that's not capitalisms' fault. It's the consumers. Corporations should not be granted "personhood"; just as- like how Orwell noted- "his idea of Socialism" is not Stalinism- one thinks pertaining to a political cause, does not an ideology (or economic system) make. On Killing (In Self-Defense): Killing is natural, just like socializing is natural. One can claim to have a moral high-ground, but it's build on one's own whims. Which are equal to the whims of a killer, only the former's entail a sense of order, and the latter, accepts his own order, and confounds it by simply being. Human nature requires higher truths to avoid this conundrum. The same argument could be made for those who steal. People don't tend to complain about that who are socialized, but then again.... On "The west": The "west" didn't export anything that wasn't already fungible, say, in the middle east, or even Vietnam. All these places had the same economic wants and desires, and they needed to fight for them, and they certainly couldn't have the amenities to their desires (for wealth, or infrastructure, political change, etc) if it wasn't for their fighting, and if it wasn't for the practical annihilation of Communism (from most of) that part of the world. It could have gone either way- don't get me wrong. Soviet communism was strong (and I'm not making an espousal for Communism, just adverting the facts), but they had to MAKE IT STRONG. On Class Warfare: 'It's called being aware that the world is not run by the hoi polloi, and it would be no different in any goddamn economy. Just look at the population rate of this planet. There is no perfect world where a small group of well connected people will not "leer" over them (the hoi polloi)- even the Guardians of Plato's Republic (as noted in the work itself) are a purely speculative and impossible fiction, as even they would become as the "leerer" of the top-dogs of the public body. You want answers, it's not "defeating capitalism", because it's been here since the Sun was cooking oil in the bowels of the Earth. An order where everything is in it's set place is still one in which oil permeates the underwork, and movements need be made to retrieve it's resource (among other resources, just the same). As an institution, it needs work...undoubtedly. Something people tend to do, especially if they see political underpinnings in motion, is they get tunnel vision. All of these "ideologies" have suffered from it. Neoliberalism. Conservatism. Socialism (Che, Maduro, etc). Communism (Iron Curtain, Mao, ect). None of these ideologies are (did I mention Mussolini was a socialist before he was a fascist? look it up, if you are curious) without faults. They all fall for the same human plights. Greed and feigned superiority. Whether rich, middle-class, or poor, it's been shown that each of these classes can permit themselves to commit to the same things....' There ya go.

  1124. 16:19 -- And did that have to do with this "psycho-sexual" nature, too? Oh I'm sorry his "dysfunction"...because sex as nature is, well, sordid, especially legally, and well, it's sort of implicit in the "psychology" of people [libido], right? so, this must just be obvious to the audience, all this subtext- it's not like the fires have anything to do with why he killed, though, right? because it's not "psycho-sexual", right, really? cause the other doctor said that he clearly was resentful as the society and parents that he felt had abandoned him, and that was reflected in his adopted parents [as he never knew his real parents really], and so he killed people fitting that reflection of resentment [hence the narcissism]. But you guys like to disarm narcissism, but only insofar as to capture it and then direct it, and then set it free again: correct? isn't that was psychologists of a certain school do? But then again, is this correct, in this case, to say that "the fires he started" was in anyway connected to the murders he committed? right? I mean, this isn't "random killings", he had more motive than just "to start fires" and then with an escalation to killing people outright: this is affirmed in the psyche literature: so why the double standard? oh because starting fires is still delinquency....the more you know. =) Gotta love it when people tell you it's your fault your lonely and unsexed and not just randomness in the universe, because then you might start wondering to hard, and break the habit of libidinal subterfuge.

  1125. No. Any actual leftism is anti-authoritarian, and is pro-self management. Right-wing thought entails hierarchy and "nationalism" [a nation-state]. Styx is, as usual, wrong, here; and he is just spouting Americanised bullshit about "leftism", because he's "right"-wing libertarian [a capitalist], which doesn't actually ascribe to actual right-wing thought [reactionaries, fascism, national socialism, monarchism, aristocracy, et al.]. Left-wing thought is all oriented around "liberating" from these things. What Styx thinks that the left does the opposite, which is actually not true. It is the "right"-wing [capitalists] who confuse the left-wing notion of liberty, with the right-wing notion of hierarchy [hence, authoritarianism, totalitarianism, synarchy]. This is confusion. The capitalists [the "right"-wing; Americanised populists notions of "centrist"-right (minimal state, supposedly) and a "far-right" (whom actually ascribe to fascism and national socialism, yet no fairly little about it's fundaments and it's reality, outside of the Americanised notion, within the European sphere), whom confused "capitalism" from anything but "elitism", and claim that the "elites" are "leftist", even though they are regarded as conforming to what is considered "anti-establishment"; from this the "capitalists" claim that "crony capitalism" is "leftism", because the "left" [liberals] are conveniently conflated with the 'far-left', when clearly both the 'far-left' and the 'far-right' are anti-establishment; only the 'far-right' are actually proponents of an ethnostate, completely out of line with American, so-called, values. The capitalists have made civil society what it is thru "progress", but not only that, "colonialism", oppression, exploitation, growth and expansion, across the every ocean. It's the capitalists who made everyone established in a central composition of nation-states which all vie for their own elite status, which is reflected not mostly in the people of the nation, the lower-classes, but instead, the immensely influential [eg. stars and starlets, big-wigs, politicians with monied interests at their speaking gigs, and behind closed doors, etc.], the "elite". The "social contract" assures this rote paradigm. Styx is a liar, or is severely confused, or delusional.

  1130. Only partly true. It was inverted. In the Eastern Aryan religions the left-hand was the path of separation (sinister only implies the "female nature" and this came along in the reclamation of the Tantric path) and the right hand path was the path that claimed to have the Truth. This was a lie, hence why Buddha went the middle path. This is an occurrence from another inversion as well. So, hence why you are partially right. The "lie" is the false claim (false witness) to having the truth. The truth is in separation, but not in the common sense, the Gaia-ladden gynococratic sense which people have tried to fill in the void with, with monotheism, with the notion of "leaving here to go to God", nor in some inverted theistic sense of loving the Earth, or something like that- but in the Aryan sense of renunciation of the world of 'becoming', into the world of 'being', and thensome. And the reason there is a "middle pillar" or "path" is because the two remain in flux until they are resolved. As it is said: “When you give … do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing”. The resolution is in the defeat of the minds bonds to the claim to truth, without truth. The natural inclination beats the supernatural when regards the subsistence in this world. Always. It's why the Enlightenment happened, the Age of Reason, why Rome existence, the ancient Egyptian culture, the Norse, ect ect. all the way down to the Jews and Sumur, ect.... T means "Truth". The snake of lies hangs on top the arch of T.

  1380. Communists are all the same. (and you can stop using "China is not communist" to justify communism, Vladimir Lenin's "new economy" allowed private businesses and ownership too) Annnd Marx called this "crude communism" and warned of it's inherent cruelty. But you didn't know that. Well, now you know...not that that is going to make you think. Plus, you're still wrong. And Capitalism is just modernised feudalism. You can give stuff new names and new features doesn't make it a entirely new thing most of the time In a sense, this is true. Feudalism is imperial ruin of warlords trying to maintain their own flows of economy and war-efforts: very similar to industrialism & capitalism's proponents and their movements. Socialism is the worst evil of this world And you're all socializing to the point where social democracy or national socialism is an inevitability, for the reasons of "the peripheral proletariat" and the "poor masses", and "race", respectively. The only other options you'll have are anti-state, which you people won't adhere to, not really. This is not about "good vs. bad", but about "the lesser of two evils". For that, capitalism still tops every other system for modern society since it maximizes efficiency through "division of labor" and allows persistent development through competition I like being a human mechanism for rich people and like when super-duper rich people send more immigration my way, it's always good, love my masters You should research yourself before talking. Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Findland aren't socialist AT ALL. They are a mix with capitalism and socialist bases That goes for all nations, dupe. All nations "are mixed models" because capitalists control WORLD-WIDE flows...you utter dolt. Plus, those nations aforementioned...from Europe...the have royal and ancient riches and colonial money to stave off any depletion from a socialist regime. So it's a win-win for their Statist power bloc. Socialism and Fascism And you're seeing a revolutionary divide which actually promotes these two systems. Both are global, one is racial, the other purely anti-capitalist. And why do you think that is? I'm sure you're smart enough to know. I'm not a capitalist supporter, capitalism is shit, but less shitty than socialism And some people had it better under communism, it depends totally on the timeline of history, and where you lived. Look at some former USSR states, some of them are much worse off under the neoliberalist paradigm. But it always depends, because we are not some "state form", but the State simply manages people into a mold which presupposes the state-form as a "given", which is a means of control. Whence comes Crude Communism, as well. Saying these countries are Socialist is the most dense thing to say, they're their own thing, the Nordic model It's socialism and it's fine to call it what it is. Word games aren't necessary to be honest. Socialism happens because society happens and oversocialization [and over reliance on government] happens. This also leads to Fascism and National Socialism, when race gets involved, which it inherently is...the only reason one takes off over and under the other is because of the tendency to "demote" socialism as an evil, and yet promote capitalism as an evil, which leads to a "nationalitarian" undertaking by the front of race.

  1408. The beginnings of "accelerationism" starts with Marx, predominantly. This, also, here, is an insuperable fact: Marx did not speak of an economic plan- no- he spoke of an inherent worry of "man being made meaningless" and his thought is outmoded and as such, hard to even read- neomarxists are not even reading him right, I can tell this without a whit of uncertainty. All Marx set in motion [as not everyone that proceeds from there can even be equated with Marx in any fashion, maybe save their mental fervor brought on by the fin de siècle era European economy] was the thought that many a right-wing[er] has come across himself, many a "reactionary" [which the Bolsheviks were, "a revolutionary reactionary socius", arising after the fall of the Russian empire—the actual beginnings of the Russian Revolution period is demarcated to a point before said Leninist theory]. This "crisis" mentality is contained in most reactionary thought, just see Spengler's Decline Of The West, or Julius Evola. These are not just "left-wing ideas", they are shared ideas, Styx—it'd be best to deal with their outgrowths wisely, especially in this crucial interim between now and the next election, when people are fired up. Trump is a form of accelerationism, Styx...just not a leftist sort—which stems from the notion that the absolute highest-ups are shit-bags. And the theory begins there. You don't even have to agree with the ends of his critique nor even agree with anything in-between [which even any libertarian worth his salt will acknowledge exists—take "individualism" in the sense of what is "sensed as value", ie., an object independent of a price that is fixed to it from an outside subject to oneself, given a value as to what you think it's actually worth, that is, what a person "demands" of the "supply"]—really it's the beginning that gets me. So what? The machine flows continue.

  1467. People who took civics classes back in the day, were a lot better at assimilating information and making informed decisions about voting That's ironic, considering your last statement, before...what was it...I'm blah blah not smart, yada yada...ok. But yeah...I never said anything opposing the statement quoted above [in bold]. In fact, I think civics not being taught in school is stupid. Next idiotic line of reasoning.... As far as your second comment, it really did not address what you think it did. It was just a bunch of nonsense, worded in a way that made you feel smart I'm sure this comment is enough to evince for some people "how wrong I am" but could you actually suss for me how wrong I am by telling me where I was wrong? please? People vote Democrat now days because they are not taught civics or economics on a way that they can understand that free stuff isn't free Says you. That substantially gormless platitude of "dey don't know things aren't free" is a real non-sequitur. They know things aren't free, they simply don't care about taxes being too high, if they're told "it's for a good cause", I think that, maybe, could be a better sussing and argument for your position, but alas, I don't know why I'm helping you out. I mean, everyone is told what they are doing is for a good cause. You can simply look at religion for an example: who's right, the protestants or the catholics? see, you can't really tell me, can you? But the question is, who is more right in their assessment of what dictates should be followed in regards the education of a voting block, when they disagree on what money should be spent on and [what it] should not be spent on. Add to that the "everything I disagree with is racist" aspect to modern public education, and many young voters don't have a clue. That's the point That's it? You "added" at the last framing of your argumentation "the point". I don't think so, but sure, if you say so...a great lead-on. But alas, sure...no one said the "everything is racist" delusion was correct in anyway. But...I never said it was. I never mentioned it. Can you actually address what I said, with your "tall-order" and "reasoned" speeches, here?

  1636. @Xavier Azhar You never asked anything like what I thought the "message of the video" is, and you are misattributing other posters' views to my own. You lack reading comprehension. I never said anything about "a message", either. All I am talking about is what I am seeing with my own two eyes, and then, once more, what critique I have of the hyperbolic reaction other people are having [if that wasn't clear to you, it should hopefully now be abundantly clear]. What is the "message" behind the video, you ask, in my opinion? Nothing much but what is plain to see: they are doing a skit, where a sexually charged motif is comprised of gymnastics [stretching], and simulating public sex - the scenes mock-up in most of the videos shown is of some kind of thing you'd mostly only see in like, honestly, a Hentai or some shit...the character archetype of the "bad guy" who "looms in the background" typically rubbing his hands together. That's the closest approximation to anything like the idea people are exasperated about, here. But to me, that clearly is a "reference" to that archetype [otherwise, no one would recognize it as such]. But alas, that's it when it comes to that. The rest of what I see just produces a message, in my opinion, of a sort of culturesque "raunch" that is reminiscent of some sex-positive circles in even the LGBTQ+ community, and feminist community - only in this case, it's sex-positive "straight" culture. And it's Russian, as some have pointed out: which appears to overlay a sense of fostering "straight" sex-positivity [as a message, like you said] thru the lens of voyeurism/exhibitionism [ironically, against the purview of the norms in North America, they tend to have to ascribe to sex in a particularly open way - which is just an aside], by way of confronting sex publicly, that is to say, by means of public sexual interaction: but that is where the approximations end, as what we see in the videos in those instances is just acrobatics [in one video, the first one], gymnastics, mixed with a scenario befitting of a narrative [which also includes the girl who's smile indicates enjoyment, not fear or distress or resignation or disgust] - this "narrative" is so as to make it allowable on Tiktok as "content" [and not just to make an even cruder video whereby there wouldn't even be any sort of "story" to seek out, making it even dumber, by the by]. The other video [of them in the photobooth] is even less so remarkable. The message here is "people like to gangbang" and "people do naughty things in photobooths". There are more things than the general disgust and shame you people want to "see" in this "message" you think the video has. I surprisingly don't see any mention of heteronormativity and it's insipid propriety and "seemliness" of quality displayed at the end of this exampled video, which evinces the instant birthing of a baby. Gotta look at those birth rates and wonder, I guess. But that's really besides the outrage this video has gotten thru the backlash on this channel.

  1639.  @IncredulousMisanthrope  Considering how rape predominantly involves someone preparing someone for "non consensual sex" through methods implied in the video (eg:- taking their own clothes off and restrain someone from moving, while nearing them suggestively for the act), similar to how historically, rape is conducted in a similar fashion leading to the explicit event. I am hence bound to predict an event through an implication itself, the same way others predict, merely through an implication First off, you have [hopefully] more higher order abilities to recognise things as they are, objectively, than that. Secondly, all the ways you "historically defined rape" [historicism] equally apply to play. You take off your clothes [to some extent: people at the beach for example], you move near a person suggestively [heaven forbid!], and, in the bedroom with a consenting person you might bind them [now, you wouldn't do this in public with someone off to the side rubbing their hands together like an anime hentai villain (which, by the way, is the joke, it seems), not unless you were doing some kind of exhibitionism, that is, if you were enjoying the act and it was, again, consented, like it clearly is in the video itself]. You just can't stand the idea of the erotic placed anywhere outside of your consent and control. But other people, it seems, don't care as much as you do, when it comes to what motivates them to do such things, like, make videos for Tiktok which include these types of themes. Either they have been aware of how rape is usually conducted through given steps via observation, or they simply "made it up" and your prediction is the universal truth that everyone should affirm to No, no, not really. You have merely oversimplified to the point of absurdity. These people don't have to think like you do. They might think as I have explained above, with the notions described being found not "rapey", but instead merely suggestive of eroticism outside of your limited scope of perception. And really? you're proclaiming what a "universal truth" is, by how they "seemed" to have potentially just "made it up" on the spot, that is, unless they think like you do, basically, that "they are aware of how rape is" erm usually [loaded term, a fallacy] "observed" - that's laughable. You don't even perceive what is actually happening in the video, you're just doing what lots of morons do - you're assuming.

  1640.  @IncredulousMisanthrope  Okay so first off, you can't interpret things "objectively", nobody can due to the way our cognition intends to work (coding and decoding based on subjective values). Sure we sense objective events on phenomenological aspects (sight, hearing etc), but you interpret it subjectively. Basically, your biasness affects your interpretation of an objective stimuli. It's a lengthy debate I intend not to dive deeper into yet Someone has left out their Kant. We can cogitate using the Reason of categories of schema. I can see and verify what I am seeing, without the Humean fork imploring us to reconsider what we're taking in as perception [seeing as we are not doing science, here]. See, if I'm not biased, then I'm not affected by bias. I might have confirmation bias - but so do you. So I don't think that readily makes for your arguments success. So what bias are you seeing in me, oh...wait...can you see it, or is it just your subjective bias? Psyche. Now here you defined a possible event based on your own subjective interpretation of the information you have, which may be based on prior experiences or so. In simple words, you predicted an event through your own opinionated view formed by your prior knowledge from your experience. Since it's your own interpretation of a possibility which hasn't happened yet (in the video), I won't judge that specifically I wasn't talking about the video - I was talking about your mention of the concept. So again, you're just wrong here. I don't think I'm liable to think on sex in such of an in depth manner, considering how I'm like...a 19 year old virgin lmfao. Buuut, I guess if I were to imagine myself having a decision to have an erotic piece outside my consent and control, I wouldn't care and let it happen. Although it depends on if that erotica has anything to do with me directly or not idk Well, good luck with that, skippy. I think you misunderstood what I meant there mate. I basically implied that your statements to everyone else here in this thread felt as if you were convincing everyone to give in to your perceived truth, as if it was a universal view that everyone should follow Not at all. I am just sure that you people aren't really doing anything more than overreacting [as in, propounding absurdities]. There is at least a tiny minority that agrees with me, here. Exactly, I am and I intended to do just that, assume. I think now you caught up to what I was trying to say. When it comes to future predictions, and events beyond our direct control there is no possible way to "perceive what is actually happening" and we have to rely on assumptions based on the knowledge we have on our own experiences. Conclusive terms such as "reality" and "actually" are relative (ie:- people perceive reality differently, forming their own reality based on individual experiences) What you have described is called 'naive realism'. It's typical, especially these days, since everyone things they are already clear in somehow knowing everything, because they say what they mean a lot, and mean what they say - as if this structures reality. This flat conception of reality is unread. We have the ability to anticipate greatly what is beyond out direct control. This is because there is some structure to language, and there is, thru that, some structure to representation [again, cf. Kant]. So what is "relative" to actuality or reality is just that: a relative notion [cf. Hegel]. Hence why your subjective truth/interpretation is just that, subjective. One thing I can reaffirm is that your eccentric interpretation of the event is quite abnormal, as most of us interpret the video as having rapey tendencies My interpretation is closer to truth than yours, however. And because "most of you" comprehend something someway as "abnormal" and "wrong" [most of you being Charlies' audience, here, a limited sample, to be sure] that doesn't mean anything is actually "abnormal" [what is the exceptional in the norm of any ideal is what is "normal", and not what is abnormal - what is abnormal is for all intents and purposes undifferentiated and integrated oneness of opinion. That is abnormal, by all historical merit]. And what you have also described is merely an appeal to the crowd.

  1709.  Fight TheMan  The Similarities & Differences Of Fascism & Communism Right now the "antifa" people are a threat to American sovereignty. This "Anticenter-Fascism" is not good for the country. It's growing (on both the right and the left) because the left keeps fucking insinuating itself in debacle after debacle, pissing off the right enough for them to become "rampantly individualist" from the base of the 'center-right' on the political spectrum, and thus separate from the left entirely—a bifurcation. Which is by title alone extensive in it's nuance, because it is this that is actually an attempt at the impossible; that is to say, the two divisions share in remarkable quality the essence of what both sides want to achieve, yet vary in the goals to achieve for themselves—and that's still putting it simply. Yet the Fascist strives for (thus in likemindedness they strive for) what is essentially an antithesis to the Global-Centrist model, given the current political spectrum. It's revolutionary, it's tendency is to be disdained, it involves a massive disproportion of violence (throughout History, this is a fact)—and it revolves around idealist solutions that DO NOT WORK for long term success, unless they were to enact a virulent (and in this day and age, possibly world-ending) war—the selfsame as the Communist, which aims for non-violent coercion, in the striving for autarky (whether they achieve that or not History tells us is an entirely different matter); that is, whether collectivized, a la Communist existence, versus, "more independent" a la Fascismo methodology, for the state. Now notice, there are two distinctions here: One: Fascism focuses on "independence", and there is a, let's call it, "rampant individualism" of the Fascistic flair—and yet they at most collectivize the labor's wealth at the very highest state levels—in order to fund it's activities, all while maintaining it's self-providing state. It relies on everyone's "individual" effort, but no less than "everyone's"; similar to.... Two: Communism focuses on "collectivism" and there is a notion of the state being abolished and the individual being insuperable in importance, a la Fascismo—but without the import of the state—thusly requiring, in theory, no one to supplant one another in their collective importance. Thusly, like the Fascismo, they are needed in a collective state to provide the necessities of the whole of the individual—this is what the Greeks taught, at some point, I do believe—point is, that it eventually requires something akin to a "state". [A last point is definitely that statism has nothing more than the social requirement, period: nothing akin to a imperialistic state apparatus, but the State often adapts that form. And the social requires the economic at that end, but that means that the conversion from socialism and/or anarcho-capitalism (in a given racial/national body) and then into either totalizing it's pursuits of resources and juridical/legal components or absolutizing the universal imperative of racial/national or religious directives: which then lead to a contradiction: this is why you see such forms taking place in Russia, as of now, and in China, still yet].

  1757. Muta explain it, don't just rant. You could be actually useful. No one should, by any means, think "my dead relative" [if that's the issue, ok, understandable, but...] explain the instances where there is seemingly "intelligent" [nte. not "sapient", just of a form of intellect, like a computer AI can "simulate" a "form of intellect"] responses...of course this isn't "ones deceased relative"- q.e.f. - but why any "seeming response" at all. Why do they not simply remain indecipherable? there is, for example, instances of names coming through, there is instances of stations apparently coming together [in sequence] to form words that are uncanny, that is, as sentences which assume intelligence- this could be all illusion- but to simply suss that "nothing is happening" is clearly not true- another thing, why is there ever swearing that occurs? these are radio stations, there should be no swearing- and it's FM, isn't it? that's terrestrial radio, that's censored under FCC regulation. Things like this make me think something more needs to be done in researching this phenomenon, instead of yelling at the camera in a bellicose manner. Think about it: If one studies Cryptochromes, one can see some oddities in how we evolved [along with all other species] on this planet to be keenly sensitive of electromagnetic subcurrents, thru our senses- even if for us humans they've been dulled by way of evolving our pre-frontal cortex, evolving a much more demarcated and intelligible "I", leading subsequent improvement in mental functions and the concurrent devolution of our inherent sensitivities to the EM-sphere. Maybe this has something to do with that,- that is, due to some psychical activity [literally brainwaves, nothing spooky or paranormal here, pure scientific data], coming into interference with the EM-sphere, perhaps with a heightened emotional response, might stimulate the amygdala, causing hallucinations- but what if that information can be distributed somehow? the recent literature in information science qua neuroscience, you can see the instance of studies which verify 'floating data' between neuron, as said "information" [electrically] is passed along them flies off among your neural-net. This seemingly can account for synesthesia, a well. But the implications here, are even more staggering. But alas, dude, no one is like hiding away microphoning this into the spook-box- no one- these "messages" [this "syntax" with seemingly apparent "semantic" meaning] comes through, and it's unaccounted for why this should happen, at all. Scientifically. In cognitive science we know of things like pareidolia, but really that doesn't account for the instances which have been identified. No one is seeing a face in a tree or hearing voices in the leaves blowing in the wind- this is verifiable strangeness.

  1853. Oh, I didn't mean, like "cellular" life, as I'm sure no one did. I'm sure you don't think it's "cellular life" we're talking about, either. I mean, you don't think it's "cellular life" that we're referring to, do you? We're talking about human life. So as such, by "non-living", I meant as an "animal" or a "human" if you prefer (either way), but not a "vegetable" or a "rock" or "cellular life". So no, not "objectively false". You're objectively fallacious in your assertion. And as I stated before, the term "unborn child" makes no sense, and it should be stricken from English idiom for it's overstated idiocy. A child is BARED in the womb...thus, if a child is in the womb, to call it UNBORN is...just plain stupid...and doesn't make logical sense, nor linguistical sense, but only in the vaguest way, in which English can provide exceptionally ugly sentences and nuance, and still be grammatically correct, and/or readable. So, to re-iterate...again...a child BARED in the womb, is BORN- either that, or is eventually born (depending on your point of view, which is afterall what this entire bitchfit [from you people] is about...about how "life begins at conception" -- which is when...a soul can be said to possess the body (or vise versa, depending on your point of view- it matters not), but that is when the human body can possess a sense of what it is, even if it doesn't possess the 'context, 'structure', 'subject matter' ect (whatever you want to presume to call it) to realize what [and/or who ] it is. -- via your own, and assumedly most others' here's logic [see? witness the terrible phrasing!] you can also postulate that the child is already "living while unborn", and/or "presumed to have a human soul at x interval of time" which you can never adjudicate upon facts, or inference [internal logic, ie, inductive reasoning], but you can all intuit when it is precisely based on your feelings and emotions. It's a tad...cumbersome...reasoning, that is.

  1894. Paul...i genuinely love this channel. you are the most clear headed reporter and well, these videos are also special, they are broadly open-minded, in spite of insanity, and yet you nail all the right points of objectivity. yes, there is some major fails in art. art needs to be critiqued, right? well....it certainly does. but there is still some great artists out there (and musicians). -- though i will have to highlight something, nevertheless -- Henri Matisse is old as fuck, and he's a painter. i'm pretty sure he was specifically talking about painting, and not all forms of art, because, the thing is, your comparison was pretty specious; comparing the painter (and quoting him on the realism -- to expressionism [ie Starry Night Sky] shift in art painting) to a photorealist sculptor, is a bit...ehhh, i mean, it doesn't really add up. but who cares. tis still only a matter of opinion...oh and of course, you were more making a point about the art institution, and not so much about Matisse, in general. and that part, about the art snobs in the elite, is at least partially, to significantly, true. -- and one more thing...being given grants to do art -that's nice, very free (sarcasm) - but you take thousands and thousands of tax dollars, being paid by the government, directly, for public art, and it's a piece of expensive shit! is stupid! --- art should be personal. "public art" is a disgrace to art if it's just shit! it's like saying "here, by the way, this is what you really pay for" to everybody...my God, that's retarded. those people should be anxious as hell about what kind of lifestyle or motives they have for this gobsmack. it's like spitting in the face of society at large. shame. PS: last thing: that last line...that was conceptual art. and it was pretty much free for how many people? "these people should be ostracized, and left alone! to play with eachothers poo! while genuflecting over it's artistic brilliance!" -- Genius!

  1981. Atheism is yet treated like a fundamentalist organization by it's own. the word Atheist connotes  a much more  complex notion and definition depending on what gets thought and done and observed according to the word's usage. this is how language works...you seen the Feminism debates in these recent years? the definition changes based on the results that definition acquires in it's usage. it has acquired a religious aspect to it's organization. to enter you must believe one way, and anything else is potentially dangerous, say if you perhaps might be Agnostic, you might potentially corrupt "the truth" (as you see it, of course) and potentially have the same kind of dangerous thinking that say Muslims or Christians have. that's the line of thinking. Atheists began forming coalitions to organize their belief that they are right and that anything else but their belief's are potentially dangerous. that is EXTREMELY religious. religions all do the same thing; pander a belief system to people in order to organize them or essentially HOARD them, and make them follow specific doctrine of beliefs. it's just how Atheists perform, and that's why the usage is as it is. ATHEISM as in -ISM is the word you're looking for to define "the lack of a belief in a Theistic God". ATHEISTS, they are the ones who take one of two positions, either they A: don't believe in a Theist God or B: someone who insists to people (especially religious people) that they believe what Atheists believe because they think there is no God and hence because they belief they're right, you should follow their beliefs because they're right. tell me who sounds more religious? i'd say A. you don't see alot of A though. you see alot more of B.

  2004. well i can't disagree with that either. i think that feminist's in this day and age have alot more resources available to them, i mean, there are academic courses and philosophy's and lots of historical and ethical proportions to study about, and that provides a background for alot of misrepresentation and misdirection from certain lets just say "grassroots" movements, where certain coalitions can gain from, and establish themselves in...not all of them are necessarily factual or even relevant. i don't think feminism is respected by both men and women these days. personally, i am a feminist, but only in the strictest sense of the word; i am new to this, i don't particularly study or research feminism, and most of what i hear is from the MRA side of things, given the perspective these days and what people are talking about, obviously. so i dunno, i am still undecided on alot of issues here. i've had plenty of discussions and debates though on the subject. i agree with alot of "anti" feminist statements (such as custody and guardianship of children and divorce liability, such as what Karen brought up in that particular interview. even had a discussion today on it about this particular comment which didn't go so well admittedly. i am quite stern in my views. but i feel like we're having a legit conversation about this, so i am happy to admit, that i am not the first person i'd go to to debate this topic. but i am curious to know how MRA's (to use that silly terminology, but hey what can you do, there are so many things to fight for, because people have to stand up for their believes) ... how MRA's view the ideal of feminism before we get to the "grassroots" movements that are happening all over. i mean, i hear arguments from both sides that i agree with, and also arguments that i tend to find facetious at best. i mean i really don't know how to address the point on which she brought up the draft, because i find the draft abhorrent to begin with, and find it something that any group nowadays would be willing to fight for unanimously, if it weren't for such a divide such as men's vs women's rights. i mean, women had to fight for SOME of their rights because otherwise they would not be granted... but haven't we all? i apologize for the long sentence.

  2027. Cenk is referring the media bias when making reference to the comparisons -- ie, he's referring the media making blanket generalizations and then pundits making declarative statements against "liberals" or "gays" or whatever have you, and then getting away with it, skewing the narrative -- he battles that by questioning the comparisons that others make, by proposing other comparisons that seem absurd by comparison, because they are -- but he does this on purpose. you are one of the many whom do not understand this fundamental aspect of watching Cenk on TYT...that's the goal, to question the narrative being produced by corporate media outlets. you know they lie all the time, right? well, that's why Cenk does what he does, in that regard...to propose that when someone, anyone, does something like that, it's the same media spin as anyone else doing it, regardless what it's about. and also, you can't really say that he used an argument like "oh the KKK bomb people too". what just like that? does he shrug his arms too? i've never seen it. i've only seen him make the odd comparisons that he then decries them as absurd, and warns the audience that his comparisons are to elucidate the way corporate media (and politicians) creates spin and skews narrative. he flat out tells the audience this -- and people like you just insist that he's an apologist, when he's the furthest thing from it. he decries Islam for their actions -- he decries media spin, and the lies perpetrated, and elucidates how they do that, and people still don't get that they're watching an explanation, and not an account of actual spin. the spin is in the spin of anything, not just things against/for Muslims, Blacks, or Mexicans. only these get brought up in the media alot more than anything else, so this is the subject matter that's covered -- and people seemingly get confused, after hearing enough times things that go against the media narrative, they then start getting mad at Cenk for trying to spin the narrative, when all he is doing is exposing the hypocrisy of the misleading spin already being readily bought. if one keep saying "all terrorists in the US are Muslim" one'll begin to believe it, and then one'll hear something like "also there are Right-Wing terrorists" from Cenk, after discussing the notion of the first statement, and one'll say (presuming they are right-wing, far leaning) "that's just not true, he's making a faulty analogy!" right! but the thing is, the statement that "all terrorists in the US are Muslim" (and this is what some people believe, that Islam is it, and there is no Christian terrorism, no right-wing terrorism, ect) is WRONG, whilst the second statement, in conjuction, is perfectly rational and reasonable and TRUE, but to make the analogy, even tacitly, IMPLIES SOMETHING, right? so when anyone in media does it, it's always a sham -- thing is Cenk openly discusses the subject matter on air, as it's addressed, and doesn't just make a false analogy, and then not address it's falsity. he addresses those in the media whom DO, though; and at the same time, he addresses those whom buy the media's false narratives and spin, by engaging them, and bringing the believers of the spin of corporate news out of the wood work to oust themselves -- all for the sake of having (or trying to have) an honest discussion, in a supremely dishonest media environment.

  2040. well to be honest, i thin that ethics are the most important thing we can, for lack of a better word, "Dwell" on, but i also think that everyone shares their opinion and has the ability to be entirely wrong based on the premise that they state their opinion on. now i don't think he's been wrong about anything i've heard recently that i can remember, but i can say that he surely has had to learn all that knows so surely at some point he was as misinformed as the rest of humanity. so how can i know he's right based on a hypothetical presumption? i think he's got good IDEAS but that doesn't necessarily make him right. but i ain't bashing him. i am actually kind of a Sam Harris fan. he doesn't even like the word "atheism" and what it's come to represent to communities of supposed atheists, and i agree with him on that. some people say it means the lack of believe in anything... well, i dunno... the lack of believe in things with substantiation or evidence is called empiricism and i like that more than the term atheist for that connotation. but really the word just means A (as in anti) Theism (meaning a single God entity) so technically by the word's ascribed meaning it's self, Atheist shant believe in a single God, but they're certainly allowed to believe in multiple rulers of the universe, so...how can one take it all so literally? some people really do, and don't even get the definition right. i think it's fine that they can live by their own definition but it's not fine that some people can't even discuss the differences from people's views on what the word actually represents, for example; not to get into the details of how some atheist's just piss me off with their rhetoric and some with their insensible conniptions about the world around them. i am more of an agnostic than anything.

  2041. i like you. this is good. well first off let me say that i am an agnostic atheist. personally my opinion is as follows, and thanks for letting me clarify: i think that a God that wanted me to worship and believe in him fervently with no regard to... not even facts... just... knowledge and believe's and logic... i think that that God would not be worthy of my worship... so hence i say "if there is a God let him take me into heaven or whatever you want to call it (truth, knowledge, some indefinable good)  without me subjugating myself to him, otherise what's the point, but if so, sure i'd take it, but i don't necessarily believe in it". that's my honest point of view; correct me if i'm wrong but that makes me an atheist no? i don't believe. i do open myself to the possibility though that well... who knows? i can't prove the non-existence of a God who's immensely secretive and whom is unknowable (even by any religion's standards, afterall, isn't that the point, trust?) but i do struggle with being on the fence, so to speak, about things. i do not accept things at face value unless these things are factual, i question everything. so if there is God i'd have to have him accept me for questioning his/her/it's entire existence. it's a nice story though, i mean, it's practically poetic. but let me bring up this other minor point... " I think this is the main point I want to get across, that using a hypothetical situation to explain a position isn't a weakness, it's part of forming a strong argument, or part of attacking someone's position by highlighting contradictions in their views." as an example. i do not believe that hypothetical's are inherently dangerous or immobile; i live by this standard, the possibility of being wrong. so i do not view Harris's view on creating hypothetical dialectics to show that he may have a point, not at all, as a wrong doing. i am just saying he might have to be correct in the near future, cause who knows? hindsight is 20/20 but to make predictions that's always "up in the air" so to say. bad grammar is a trait of mine. i do not ascribe to entirely proper grammar to make a point more reasonable. i think that my thoughts should stand on their own, and grammar is for writing (while i add this edit to affirm that i forgot to add a comma here and this is important so... i'm pointing it out , comma), while on the internet for example, my grammar isn't really portraying my thoughts, it may make my thoughts more communicable but i don't care to convince people. i'll save grammar for my writing and for when i am well i take it account... i won't say i don't, but not always. so please excuse the horrible punctuation and sentence structure. i am type in a stream of consciousness style and have no editor. :P

  2112. "its a great idea, but collecting more money for the gov won't help it go away.  Spreading around wealth from others wont help. Nothing bernie will do will help.  If he gets close to change id bet he dies quick. If you want people to live better maybe let them live and not tax them to death.  The gov isnt responsible for taking care of people like that.  No one is owed health care or schooling.  A fair wage maybe, but still it shouldnt be gov mandated." if Bernie cannot help the country...than who the fuck can? Trump is just as slimy as Hilary (though his policies are alot less slimy -- i'm just talking ethics here)...does he take the same position now, as he did two months ago? nope. gotta compete against 'liberal Hilary" now. and Trump wanted just as much of a redistribution as what you suspect of Bernie. he's basically paying people to support him. remove the Mexicans and redistribute the jobs (ie the cashflow) to ordinary Americans...yeah, and what if most of those Mexicans were being paid under the table, and being paid less than what an "ordinary American" will be willing to work for? and how many of these people will America need? sounds equally absurd as the "lining up for rations" socialism idea that people kinda just presume will happen, in a country like America (doubtful -- highly doubtful). the system is fucked. fiscal-conservatism > libertarianism, in terms of running a nation. i still call myself a libertarian, but that's not a position i'd support in my government, because ther effects would be one of two, either 1: environmental destruction, which is shown to be the case in attempts at agorist societies, or 2: crony capitalism still thrives and people have a lovely personal opinion that means nothing to said cronies. libertarianism is a fine personal belief system.

  2131. "Whats you brilliant plan?  To keep voting for candidates who are 90% the same as the others? " i don't vote. assumption number 10. "You literally advocated voting for a socialist as a means to improve our current government which is already to big" no, i didn't. i explained a position. i didn't advocate for his candidacy. i am as yet completely decided that he doesn't have a chance of winning, and that that should be obvious; and i don't like Trump or Hilary at all. for clear reasons. "You bitch about the system we have than babble about how we need it to do anything and we have to have it." actually, all i ever advocated was that a complete reversion to classical liberalism is unrealistic, because of the population -- you need to enact legislation slowly to set the precedent first -- hence my remarks about rolling up on Washington. you can't do what you want to do, but you can advocate for it...just expect realistic people to come with facts. sorry. but if you read what i said, you'd see that i never advocated for bigger government, and you'll see that i mention that i am a libertarian at heart, and want small government too, but that it's just not possible -- oh yeah, and your plan... "if you paid attention i advocated a small government kept in check by people who are paying attention.  A actual representative government.  Back to the republic we were meant to be. This is only the 4th time ive said as much." that's not a plan. that's your advocacy. not a plan. i advocate the same thing...but i don't do it so blindly.

  2141. yes, because he almost had a non-forced TV interview that almost came across as sincere, i mean, if only he'd left out his attempts at discrediting SLJ as a "role model" simply because of characters he plays that, by all means, WERE NOT even created by SLJ; so he is holding no bearing on whether he should consider questioning his role in playing them, because to him they are simply characters, like in a book... it's a story. just because you see it acted upon on screen, on set, doesn't mean anything about what SLJ actually thinks about anyone or anything in society. well it might, but the interview barely touches on that. he even says "the other character gets DISTRACTED, hence he dies, while Jules lives." a cautionary tale, which with, if you look past the violence, you can actually see it's really trying to say that "kid's definitely maybe shouldn't be criminals. they'll die over something petty, and the only ones who won't are once who are ready to learn anyway, so they shouldn't endow themselves with that kind of work to begin with. after all, you'll only come to realize that you're only in control because your not distracted, and if you weren't distracted, you can do much better then be a hitman. ie, crime doesn't pay, intelligence does." that's what he saw in the character. doesn't mean that's necessarily how the character was written, but that's what HE saw and what he LIKED; and it had nothing to do with the violence in the movie, why he took the role. but the damn journalist is pushing the issue as if he cares about the violence. he doesn't, and it's not his place to be a spokesperson for or against it. k, long enough comment. seriously, journalism like this is is nothing but a piss off.

  2142. no, she doesn't get it though. i like how she called him out, because she got to learn something. all that the dude was saying was that THAT method, in his opinion, would be a non-confrontational way to say that "if my feelings are hurt by you purposely or on a constant basis, that i can show love for and respect other people too; and that in that way, without needing confrontation, she OR HE (works both ways) can get the message, that ones feelings were hurt."and i think what was saying was that with a little joke or a little nudge, this type of thing can be alleviated, because BOTH women and men do becoming interested outside of things in the relationship, and they have to keep each other in check, and ironically, THAT KEEPING IN CHECK, actually helps a relationship, because it shows that you can trust the person more... which leads to respecting them more. and remember, i think was over exaggerating a bit, and what he was talking about in the end of the clip, was more realistic on the level of a "incidental" situation where one party in the relationship is harming the other... but not as far as to be hitting them or some more serious then, say, and incidental hurting of feelings. say it WAS worse... THEN i'd say that Ana was right, because THEN is when you'd want to maybe try couples counselling... or then, leave, if that doesn't work. when people marry, it's because they want to be together forever, seriously... if THAT PROSPECT isn't being taken seriously anymore, you should leave. she was absolutely right about that... BUT i think she was missing the Boss's point. i hope i help you understand where i think he was coming from. because that "power fluctuation" in relationships, exist, even if incidentally. you've never swooned over someone outside your marriage? that's what i'm talking about, and what he was talking about... and THAT can be rectified and actually help improve your marriage, when you can show that you are the boss of yourself. both MEN ... AND WOMEN.

  2179. "Sam Harris never said we SHOULD nuke ISIS. He said that if the west was put in a position where they knew ISIS had nuclear capabilities it would be foolish not to strike first. " "I can't see how that is egregious. I mean, it is if you remove his qualifiers and the context and just say 'Harris wants to nuke the middle east' as it was framed by Cenk but, that is not what Harris was/is saying. " so it's hypothetical -- he's saying that Islam would be much more likely to use a nuclear bomb, than we would, so we should strike first...but what's the rationale there? that we're better because we strike first? or we're different for having nukes, than they are? where is the rationale, if i might ask? "His point is that, ISIS is not like Russia were on the cold war. The Russians were as scared to die as anyone else and thus everyone chilled. " was his point to dispel other fallacious reasoning that he's seen Cenk, perhaps, or someone else, postulate? because that explain the extreme nature of his hypothetical. "ISIS fighters have shown time and time again that they don't care about dying, or more accurately, dying to them is honourable. This means the concept of 'mutually assured destruction' wouldn't act as the deterrent it was against Russia. So, while I am against the use of nuclear weapons, in fact, I'm a practical pacifist, If ISIS obtained nuclear weapons, I agree we would be administering our own death sentence if we didn't act first." i suppose, hypothetically, that'd be true. ISIS should have been wiped out a long time ago, already -- to be frank.

  2272. lol, that's funny..."you...social justice warrior! RAAWW!!!" yeah...i'm the social justice warrior. i can see the poke. you can see the poke...the other guy who was talking to me can see the poke. we all see the poke. look back through your comments...you say it yourselves you "saw the poke but..." but nothing. we all agree on everything save two things...she shouldn't have punched, that's for sure, and she certainly wasn't "groped" -- but -- the man did poke her, you admitted it already, but you're making excuses that make it seem as if he didn't do anything -- he did -- he poked her, like we can all admit we see. is it a big deal. no, it isn't. what is a big deal however is the jackass who sprayed her. he was not defending the guy, as he wasn't there during the initiation of the altercation between them, verbally, and when people were trying to hold her back, the guy with the mace then trolled up from behind everyone -- through the crowd -- and unbeknownst to anyone else, had had the mace ready for if she attacked; she threw the fist then, (and she shouldn't have), and then he sprayed her immediately; no one is that fast on the defence of someone in the public sphere, but that's besides the point, since we have the video. everyone can see him troll up as if planning a premeditated attack, and looking for an in. that's the deviousness of this person you people are simply praising at this point, you're so derisive in your contempt for the truth that we plainly have in video, you and I,and scooter over there. you ingrates just wish to argue about nothing -- because you're fools. " Touch signals reach the brain in a fraction of a second. I" you pick your specialty you pick your bias. i am not talking about the signals being received in the brain, fool, i am talking about her processing the decision to 'call sexual assault' out, and then more ensued. it's not like she just immediately punched after she was touched, dorkus. there was a lot of time after that of being held back, yelling, and then she eventually threw the punch, which we all do not accept. so it's you with the false narrative in this conclusion...and all the rest, but we may yet get to that, if we haven't already. "Your conclusion from that video that he poked her would never stand up in court, " no it wasn't you insurmountable idiot. my words were thus: "i am not calling for his being charged or anything" "nothing was WRONG WITH HIS POKE. did i call for action or legal action against the guy who "groped her"? no. i said she was wrong, the whole time, and never said the guy actually did anythingwrong" "remember: no one is saying what she did wasn't wrong or what the guy did was wrong." "he doesn't need to get in shit for something so simple, and harmless" "A: no sexual assault B: no assault (or that's pushing it, i don't think it'd hold up in court" you muckbrain.

  2400. "Now you've hiding behind "a joke". I win. :)" you don't win shit. first of all, i didn't really speak on Islamic history. i told you that philosopher's have been beheaded for questioning the existence of God -- this is a fact. i don't need to study much, at all, to know this. i've seen the many works and some f the history, enough to know. i don't need your lesson. secondly: i didn't mess up the definition of materialism, you did. i didn't mess anything up. i used the definition of materialism as "a tendency to consider material possessions and physical comfort as more important than spiritual values" -- which sums up how to address your stupidity. the joke was just that...and i'm not hiding behind anything. you were told the joke, and you just didn't get it. isn't that clever? you thought i was talking about materialism from a strictly philosophical point of view, but i wasn't, i was using the other definition to make the joke -- why? -- because i knew that you clearly hadn't watched his videos, but having no knowledge of this, i had to prove it to myself. tell me that isn't clever. = ) you proved to me that you knew nothing because you insisted, after i told you that you were wrong, that i needed to brush up on what you meant, but obviously you missed the part where i confirmed that he was no materialist; and i told you that you should go and check out his videos, so you can understand how wrong your assumption was. instead of doing that, you're still here. this is not my problem. it's yours.

  2429. i don't care if you do. and me finding his trolling funny is particular...i just like the dynamic. Ana for example...i just find funny, her reaction to his idiocy. and i think it's fine that he plays an idiot, and i'm certain he's not an actual full-fledged moron, because he doesn't sound like one. do you realize how difficult comedy is to prefect? not everything comes across even from PROFESSIONAL comedians...my point here is that, comedy is a huge spectrum. i just happen to find anti-humor situations, in the right setting, (and within taste), applicable, and funny. i find stuff funny, alot of the times, because they are not funny and come across as cringe worthy. it's called cringe comedy. and it's funny to some people. i like all forms of comedy so, one shouldn't be surprised. now you can dislike the co-hosts all you want. i think you're wrong though. PS: how else do i interpret what you are saying without making assumptions? LOL take note: we all make assumptions. it's called thinking. since i have no source of information on you, nor know you or your stance on things, it's safe to assume, i can only assume, and can only assume by what tiny information has befallen me, in this case...and i've seen it, you simply were turned off by the analysis, and commentary, but you've only responded to comment strings that involved the discussion (and inherent bashing, in your other comment found) of the TOPIC AT HAND. you just find that an appealing entry to proclaim your dislike for the co-hosts? or is it just a coincidence?

  2473. +Anime Hero "it's the same as a piece of art I can't go around ripping off Picasso or Warhol and pass it off as my unique style" LOL that's not the same thing. oy...you can't reproduce a Warhol and sell it, no, but React videos aren't that. first off: there is no room for anything different, which is the main problem -- no one wants these douches to corner the market on people reacting to videos (i can't believe this utterance token has any value; no...no i must believe....), and there isn't anything to copyright past "someone reacting to a video on video". secondly: they can copyright their channel's property "Fine Brothers Entertainment" and "Teens React" ect ect, which is in conflict with point number one, but nevertheless, there is still also nothing to copyright other than the names, but the names shouldn't be copyrighted either, because then it make it so they could control whether videos such as "Teen Reacts to Charleston Shooting Video" are able to be online or not, because it would only be viable under their permission; which is asinine and crude to say the very least. they should be halted at every turn trying to make something so asinine happen. if not. they should get sued. they did not invent Reaction videos. Candid Camera should sue, i and many others would try and get a petition to get them and anyone else that has their name to the "React video" concept, to sue fine Brothers for all they are worth. they should be scared, because they're trying to get away with some dastardly, for the sake of greed. you can be greedy reproducing a Picasso, Fine Brothers can also be greedy copyrighting a concept that doesn't belong to them.

  2590. http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15532739.2010.509202 "The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) conducted a consensus process in order to make recommendations for revision of the DSM diagnoses of Gender Identity Disorders. This is a report from the work group proposing new diagnostic criteria for Gender Identity Disorders for adults if the diagnosis were to be retained in the next revision of the DSM. The group recommended changing the diagnosis to one based on distress rather than on identity, on which the current diagnosis is based. Hence, they proposed changing the name of the diagnosis from Gender Identity Disorder to the more accurate and less pathologizing Gender Dysphoria, a name familiar to the field, used before, and describing the condition of distress. They proposed the following criteria for a diagnosis of Gender Dysphoria in Adults: (a) strong and persistent distress with physical sex characteristics or ascribed social gender role that is incongruent with persistent gender identity, and (b) the distress is clinically significant or causes impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning and this distress or impairment is not solely due to external prejudice or discrimination. There was consensus that a transgender identity is not pathology. Gender variant individuals are not inherently disordered; rather, the distress of gender dysphoria is the psychological problem." -- which is always the case when it comes to the DSM -- disorders are characterized by distress of an individual. if i have Anxiety for example...does this mean i'm mental, because it's listed in the DSM? no. unless i seek their professional help and my anxiety is so distressful that it's effecting my life and psyche, then i go to them for help, then no; because not all anxiety meet DSM requirements. also the DSM is a book that is constantly under review. PS: pediatricians take care of child patients, and they advocated that one shouldn't let CHILDREN just opt for specificity on their gender roles, because they are too young to make such distinctions rationally. no one said anything about ADULTs making their own decisions being unhealthy.

  2616. "That's not what I did." ya it is -- quote: "Defense of Torture was posted in 2005 and has been updated and "clarified" since. You think evolving opinions or explaining misunderstandings is a bad thing? If so (to refit a punchline from a detestable hillbilly comedian) you might be a regressive..." which is what was said about Cenk, that he has "updated" his worldview, and which is true, and people ARE allowed to do so, which you claimed as well, above...yet, you do not hold that same argument for Cenk, so why are you using it against his declaiming Harris as merely "updating" instead of having been right all along; why are you insisting that that person didn't want anyone to change their views...he wasn't saying that...he said "Harris changed his views in a year after the interview" ie "Cenk and Harris should be able to change their minds on issues" -- as you've said...but the people you then aim to defend by attacking his position, are those whom said the opposite, that Cenk can't backpedal, because he said what he said once already, and he can't change his mind without appearing the liar. that's why you are a hypocrite, like the others, and why you were addressed. "You should look that term up while you're at it, child. Your misunderstanding of the form, function and definitions of every fallacy you've evoked is flawless. Meaning you've failed to comprehend the meaning of every fallacy you've named. It's sad really. Amusing. But sad, too." what's sad is you not being able to comprehend that i was using his own rhetoric, and thus his own logic, to prove that he was using fallacious logic. and you agree. and thus, you're an idiot, because you can't even understand that i pointed to your own logic to derive the argument -- because that's where YOUR argument falls apart. simple as that. (also this is what happens in rhetorical argument. there is nothing but bedrock assumptions here, on your part, and william dishrag) "Reread your initial appearance for both retarded amusement and elucidation on the tu quoque as a textbook example." this hilarious example is brought to you by: someone who understands logic, and whom can point out people's hypocrisies. he was using the logic, that you declaim as fallacious...well, then we both agree. it was. that's why i pointed it out.

  2622. "You think evolving opinions or explaining misunderstandings is a bad thing?" he never said that. and it was in response to: " Cenk has definitely been a slandering provocateur on this issue in order to discredit and silence these people. " no one has slandered Sam Harris with undue reasoning. people do not misunderstand Sam Harris' position, they just simply think his position is foolhardy and dangerous and condemnable. but to condemn Cenk for "slandering Harris" by simply calling his position idiotic, when it is, and then A: presume that Harris' position was ever up-to-snuff with any tenable opposition, whilst B: presuming Cenk was always to be considered wrong, while C: Harris had to "update" his arguments -- as clearly if they needed to be updated, then they were clearly unable to hold the water Harris suspected, nor his fanboys -- well, that's just inexcusably wrong. PS: "Again, infant, clarification =/= change" if he needed to clarify his argument, it wasn't a sound argument, it was a confused and muddled argument -- which would account for Cenk and everyone else not buying it, and seeing it's glaring holes. "Well, I'll only answer the last comment that shows up when I reply so you should maybe reconsider that." this isn't done to convince you of anything. this is done to show that the defence of Harris is specious, whilst the defence of Cenk is rational, considering peoples confusion over what constitutes a failure is misconstrued, as they think that Cenk cannot disagree with Harris, and he cannot wholly insist on Harris clarifying his argument, to make it make more rational sense.
    1
  2623. PS: ISIS has no nuke capabilities, and no ability to strike the US directly from their location. hence, Harris' nuclear first strike plan is fearful and regressive dookie (and also "not as bad as" illogical dookie, at that), that idiots like. PPS: i confused you for someone else. either way, tu quoque is applicable, because within this comment line, people asserted that Sam Harris can clarify and change his views, whilst at the same time, condemning Cenk and calling him a "regressive", because he simply disagrees with Harris, and among other things, such as "he's a genocide denier", and then he's not only condemned for that, but for trying to change and/or clarify his views, ie change in respect to the genocide denial accusation (bullshit) and clarity to his position ad infinitum that Islam is not a good religion and proposes bad ideas, and causes chaos in fundamentalist Islam. he does this, he gets bashed...Sam Harris does this (this clarity -- nothing to the genocide denial claim), he gets praised. this is a tu quoque, and you are in defence of it. to say but Sam Harris "clarified his views" and applaud him for it, while condemning Cenk for doing the same. questioning him on his logic; and if it so needed clarity, you can't fault him for questioning the logic, when it is faulty; but yet, people do fault him for it,whilst at the same time praising Harris for the same thing they condemn Cenk for doing just the same; which is appeal to hypocrisy or tu quoque. PPS: not that that invalidates your argument...your agreeing with Harris' slippery slope "not as bad as" nuclear-first-strike against-camel-riding-desert-dwellers-with-no-nukes-to-strike-the-US-with logic -- this all invalidates your argument for me.
    1
  2624. PPS: also, Sam Harris = slippery slope fallacy. "we need to attack them first, if they have a nuclear capability, because they try and kill us as soon as they can, so we need to nuke them as soon as 'IF' arrives" no IF. there is no IF. not yet. and IF they were to get a nuke, or nukes...there are special forces that are classed with the abilities to go in and seek and destroy the nukes -- so no, we don't have to nuke them first -- we just need intelligence, like we have plastered all over the middle east, and then we need to send in JSOC or whomever handles Nuclear Weapons, and let them attempt to handle the situation with carefully planned tactics and, with a solution, that'll be clean and not be a disproportional response to an area already destabilized, and not to mention the ethics involved of the murder of innocent lives in the area, that are not involved in sectarian violence. Sam Harris ignores all this, and all his fans suck his ass, and hate on anyone who'll point out this glaring fallacy in logical reasoning, and then Sam and his idiot supporters will say: "but he said IF" -- yeah, well, we're not at "IF" and even IF we were, it still doesn't discount the glaring lack of rationality and logic on Harris' part, and it doesn't discount his slippery slope and "not as bad as" fallacious reasoning. yeah, not as bad...but what's even less bad is, oh i dunno, not nuking the country for no good reason, and just going in and destroying the nuke before they even have the ability to launch, and/or, destroy their capabilities, before any completion of any silos. -- can they even build any place for missiles? ... let's just presume for the sake of argument they can, i guess...since -- i think, at least -- it'd satisfy the crowd. facepalm

  2627. "You poor thing. Even the notion of an IQ test confounds your dumb ass. As I said, buttercup, you're unqualified to speak on what does and does not constitutes intelligence." oh YOU...a random idiot commenting on youtube does not an IQ test make. "Having to ask also presents further evidence of your necessary disqualification from intelligent discourse. I'll give you a hint though: Knowledge of global, social and political situations (past and present) are just a few factors in determining intelligence. You're welcome." we're talking about an intelligence quotient, fagmo. not intelligence as to wit socio-political acumen and insight, you crass blowhard cockmaster. LOL "You obviously still don't know what an ad hominem is, child. This is also apropos to the Dunning-Kruger effect you labor so mightily and insuperably beneath. Do look up the term at you convenience." insuperable, that's nice, you get that in a translation of some classicist text? i love that word, too. it's fancy. but yeah, no, i know what an ad hominem is, moron. what you're illogically committing to, to get your "point" across, is called "argumentum ad hominem, through guilt by association". do try harder. or wait...do you want me to Latinize it a bit, make it a bit more contusive to your ego? i know you like it. also: you still haven't shown me the determination of what makes an intelligence quotient with what is presented here, in this comment line. where's your argument or explanation? you're great, though, at prevaricating and avoiding having to make a counter-argument. bravo sophist-bullshitter. LOL "Faggot? Now that's just blatant projection, princess. You're not fooling anyone." you're the one implying you wanna fuck me in the ass, faggot.

  2629. "Perhaps while you're failing to look up words you can pretend top discover what 'quotient' means in relation to intelligence. If only you could comprehend such complexity..." we aren't talking about 'a quotient in relation to intelligence'...we are talking about the IQ or Intelligence Quotient Test, ie, the TEST, that is given to produce an IQ SCORE. not any of the prevaricating evasion you have dribbled off your chin. "We of some modicum of intellect call it 'education'." hedge more. first we are talking about you showing me where there is an IQ Test within this comment thread...then you want to reduce it to "a quotient of intelligence" that you're trying to point out to me (my lack thereof, you say), then you say it's 'education' you're talking about...make up your fucking mind. oh wait, you're just making more fallacious counterarguments. "Obviously not, cupcake, you used it wrong." good luck showing that, because i obviously didn't "use it wrong". "You really are a mindless fuckwit, aren't you? That was rhetorical, princess. Of course you are. Mashing words together does not make them coherent, kiddo. If you make a positive claim regarding a logic fallacy, you must follow up with a demonstration of said fallacy. It is not enough to make the assertion, child. Had you been familiar with logic at all you'd have known this and not have to be told. Further compounding the proof of your utter vacuity. By all means continue. I enjoy watching you morons flounder under the burden of your own failed statements." i'll point it out: "As I said, buttercup, you're unqualified to speak on what does and does not constitutes intelligence." i'm unqualified? that statement itself is unqualified, and it's also an ad hominem. moron. "Contusive. That term does not fit or mean what you think it means buttercup. Mulligan?" it means to injure without breaking the skin. a contusion; leading to bruising. stfu, moron. yes, you can say it was reification, but the fact is, when i say ego, i am making a play on words. it makes responding to you more pleasant, to try and have some fun. "Still too much irony for you to parse, I see. Again, apropos." i never said you produced a non-existent IQ test, you proposed that. hence, i am referring to you, clearly, and accurately, cocksmear. "I didn't imply such a thing. I directly stated that it occurred and you obviously enjoyed it. Ass fucking alone does not make one a 'faggot', princess. You're clearly female so the term does not apply." no, i'm pretty sure you did. i called you a cockmaster, and you said something like, oh i dunno, "Seemed you enjoyed the pounding this 'cockmaster' provided you after all" which sorta insinuates that you'd like to fuck me in the ass (or that you did, but sadly we all know this is just projection; now that's ironic, according to the record here. hmmm.) also, i'm clearly a female? lol, no. terrible attempt at a reversal of what you were implying. also, you doubled up your comment, there, Cochise.

  2635. the position that i am quite aware of from you. FYI is short form for "i don't want to take a position" because you know you haven't a leg to stand on when it comes to your statement. the fact of his not making the clock from scratch is a moot point, but ideally you'd want it to be said that because his clock wasn't made from scratch that somehow it invalidates his attempt at doing something for himself. whether he made the clock from scratch or just dissembled another clock to refurbish, it's all the same, he made something for school. you just wish it was an important fact. it's not. i presume it's because you want to invalidate his attempts because it'd serve your ideals better if his clock was invalid as a piece of school work or project, because then you obfuscate the issue of him getting arrested for nothing. basically put, you want to distract people from the fact he did nothing wrong, because you think it was alright that he got arrested for nothing, because you think essentially that because he was suspect in something (he didn't do) that he should be looked at more harshly; whether because you are frightened of Muslims, potential bomb threats, ect whatever the case is with you, you just don't like what he did, period. you don't like what he did so you're trying to insinuate that he is in the wrong somehow, when in fact he was not. he actually didn't do anything. again to make this abundantly clear: you WISH it was important (your "statement"), because then it would obfuscate the issue of him getting arrested for blind idiocy on another person's part; which might make you seem idiotic, i dunno,...and maybe you don't want to seem idiotic, but nonetheless, you do, because through your "statement" you're inherently trying to make a point which is that he shouldn't have done what he did...even though he should have, because he didn't do nothing wrong and only did something that was interesting (at least to him), which is something you clearly don't want him doing, for whatever reason...whatever reason it is, it's a stupid one. so i'm telling you how irrelevant your "statement" is. it's practically idiotic at this point; at this point you might as well just say "it's not a real clock!" - who cares? it's a project he tinkered with, and maybe he shouldn't have brought it to school, but nonetheless, it wasn't what anyone thought and it's tantamount to arresting a kid in school for drawing a sword or a gun; it's immensely idiotic and only idiots are worried about that shit. what a non-idiotic non-fuckhead would be worried about is how the kid got shit on for doing NOTHING WRONG. so do you get it yet or are you still going to continue on with your schtick?

  2727. there are pedo rings though. and there have always been Satanic ritual, perhaps not on the conspiratorial "tin-foil hat" level, but certainly people have murdered for Satanic ritual, especially centuries ago. if people have sacrificed for God's, you don't think that Satanists wouldn't do the same for their "god"? i just find it highly unlikely that they'd find themselves so special. so with that in mind, i don't find it to far-fetched that people have killed for Satan...eg look at the Night Stalker. so if it's possible, then it's likely at least once that someone has done a ritual involving murder (killing of Animals is pretty much chic in ritual circles; so human sacrifice can't be too far off). and if that's the case then it's possible that it happens more times then we think, and maybe it just hasn't been exposed? i don't know if i believe Satanic Pedo Rings, per se...but both separate ideas i can imagine probably happens to some extent, and then i have to imagine that maybe perhaps there is some overlap there. and sure it's a "conspiracy" that "the elite" are running pedophile rings...but there has been instances of high profile celebrities and politicians being involved in pedophilia. to me, it's mathematically improbably that there has never been a pedophile Satanist, which of course leaves the possibility that there has been a Satanist pedophilic ritual that has occurred at some point in history. though maybe not recorded history, which is all that's relevant, i guess. i just don't put it past humans to try and achieve something like that.

  2728. evidence about what? pedo rings. need not. it's there for anyone to see, just use Google or whatever. Satanic rituals? well, that one is definitely dicey in regards to evidence. but if religious people of centuries past have sacrificed lives, then Satanist sacrifice can't be too far off. i mean, the ideal of Satan has persisted for centuries, and certainly there are sects of Satanism that aren't exactly in the public eye, and certainly sects of certain other shadowy organizations (eg Ordo Templis Orientis, Hermetic Order of The Golden Dawn) whom are in utter secrecy. i don't deny the possibility that people can become victim to rogue believer's in Satanism as well, as i pointed out earlier The Nightstalker killer. he killed FOR Satan, in his own words. there is my evidence. it's small, but it allows the possibility, the possibility in which there could either be rogue Satanist's (PS: and there are definitely ones in even recent times who've sacrificed animals that weren't humans) or that ritual sacrifice may happen in other secret societies. basically your weak skepicism you're giving me is akin to saying that Jack the Ripper never existed because we never found him...or her. it's just poppycock. look you can be as hardline as you want, but when there is evidence that presents itself, i take into account all the possibilities. we know Satanism exists, we know Satanists will ritually sacrifice an animal, so a human isn't far off from that possibility of sacrifice, and also people have killed in the name of Satan, which again isn't too far off from ritual sacrifice, seeing as they've killed FOR the deity they believe in, so...what have you got to settle this? nothing?

  2759. there isn't a problem leading to the disintegration of black families that can't be attributed purely to human nature. the black family is just as perplexed, culturally, as any other family in America (and should be treated as any other problem in America, an American one). the air of lament should come from the fact that people want solutions for problems that have none. curb the population growth? that's a simple proposal. but no. that won't happen. so what is to be done? lament? lament what? it was never any better than it is now, in fact, it was very plainly worse. that is the argument...you are CORRECT that that's what he thinks people think, that their referring to the good ole' days in that sense, or is it in the sense of "the good ole' days" when people were young and ignorant and thought the world made sense. it never did -- not fully. but progress has slowly been made, especially for people of color, and they need to continue to do so, not wish for the past...the past is gone, and it was never really that great to begin with. and that IS sad. but that's not what the guy was a pointing to. he was saying that "it's sad that they felt better about the good ole' days because the family was connected, unlike now" but this is JUST NOT TRUE. the families were separated, children were sold off from their parents, and they were NOT happier -- they had the illusion of being happier. and black person can tell you, that hasn't been trying to make excuses for his or her life, that life is a hundred percent better now. this is the problem. the big guy is just saying that older black folk have their rose-colored glasses on, which isn't really an accurate representation of the world. anyone without said glasses can look at history, and look at their life now, and plainly see things are better now.

  2918. blah blah blah blah balh religious freedom is not this. this is not religious freedom. it simply isn't. religious freedom is NOT something that you can foist on someone else, and not something that you can make other people have to consider for themselves or make them do, because guess what, it's not THEIR religion. they are FREE from your religion, and you are free from theirs. the only thing is, though, them being who THEY are, does NOT EFFECT YOU,...you have the religious freedom to not get a sex change operation, or to not like trans people or whatever dumb shit...but you have no freedoms to foist your believe on other people, and to have other people have to take your beliefs into account for ANYTHING. if you refuse to serve people, you should have your business license revoked. also, the states do have control over their own governments, to an extent; only a retarded bunch of idiots would see "religious FREEDOM" as "well, i don't like trans so i don't have to serve them, it's against my religion." guess what...no one cares if it's against your religion to serve them, you're a public service, you'll serve them...or else all this dumb asinine American idiot only bullshit will be taken to court. it's right there in the constitution...if some idiot states want to secede from the rest of the US constitution, then be my guest. but the states won't get away with this forever. 1st amendment = freedom of religion and separation from church and state...state = public business operations. i am never allowed to deny you service because it's against my religion to serve Christians (let's just say that's true) -- get it? of course not. this is for posterities sake. not yours. you won't get it. because you don't understand the 1st amendment and the concept of freedom of religion. FREEDOM -- meaning if your religion dictates that you don't have to serve me, and the states agree with you, then you're gonna be seeing alot of segragation and this will all get settled by simply looking at the first amendment; why? because others will not serve Christians next...people will force people to serve christians...then christians will be all means have to stop the boycott against serving whom they don't like to serve in their establishments...or else American then (people reading this) will then change form a free and secular nation, to a utterly controlled and christian only nation, and everyone will leave, meh, probably for Canada...that or fight you christians on every front, and there'll be another civil war type scenario. but either way...religious freedoms will win over christian tyranny.

  3021. +StevenCrowder Crowder on climate change in the media and about the source of the consensus: you can't have an objective reality without numbers, and if the source of the numbers is naturally incorrect, then it's subject to question. when a question presents itself, it calls for an answer, biznizsch's. -- we need the truth on climate change. notice Crowder corrected himself, he said "not global warming" probably because this is different than climate change...global warming -- considering what some say, global warming is a natural effect of the climate. while climate change is whether he have anything to be truly alarmed about, which is what the media pushes. i want real answers: and scientists can be bought and paid for. this is a fact. PS: liberalism should stay out of the economy -- fiscal-conservatism is the only kind of conservatism that makes real sense. -- and liberalism should remain a social movement, in terms of LGBT rights, ect, as the people do indeed have the right to freedom of expression. sorry to disagree with you there Crowder (assuming you take just about every other Christian i've talked to's position -- [grammar, kids]), sorry to indirectly hammer that in, but i just don't see any other way to denote the problem i have with this particular area of disagreement, considering [yes admittedly anecdotal] my experiences with discussing the issue with Christians, and i'm in a Christian family myself. -- but i don't see how these people being whom they belief they are is any different from any Christian. fiscal-conservatism is the only kind of economy that makes real sense. (did i say that already?) but on the subject of Christianity, abortion is murder...lol, but i take the ethical "what if the baby is of a rape?" stance. because i can't really see anything being lawful in determining for a women whether or not she should have to keep a baby she simply doesn't want, by way of incident, or simply cannot handle -- why put more people on the streets, potentially? it's SUCH a complicated issue. PPS: apologies for the essay. but one more thing: if a woman does an illegal abortion, is it because there aren't enough resources for her to get it done by medical professionals? what happens to those women? it's complicated.

  3069. the thing about Islam (making it quite unique in religions) is that policy, culture, religion, law, all of that is integrated at the foundations of the precepts of Islam -- similar to the Vedas but monotheistic instead, like the other Abrahamic religions -- meaning all facets of the nation adhering to Islam is entirely and ornately encapsulated into the faith. so when you attack the religion, you seriously will come across to anyone whom you're debating, that is Islamic or whom wants a clear discussion about the ill-merits of Islamic tradition and the religion and texts, as someone who is attacking the people within the religion. the religion was conceived out of a pure malice for outsiders and a concept of purity of insiders -- like Judaism. i'd recommend nailing the key-points of morality (or the lack thereof) in the policies of Islamic nations, first and foremost -- and THEN follow that up with the iconoclastic devices of trying to change their doctrine. get them to see the lack of morality in their policy decisions first, then the people of those nations could start to come around, potentially. but they are so tied to the structure of their religion as a way of law, that's the biggest hurdle. alot of people will just follow the law, because it's the status quo. but i'm speaking i guess on a large scale...on a small scale, i'd be careful of using facetious arguments like "he was a pedophile" and use more serious KEY arguments like "why stoning women and hanging homosexuals is immoral" and how 'western economy and democratic freedom' works miles beyond in terms of results than Islam. if you convince people their lives will get better, than there is hope. consider the fact that they are truly that lost with Islam, because it truly is mostly all they know over there. it's constantly re-enforced, too, by sectarian violence.

  3082. "In context to OP, the gay marriage argument hinged on "because they love each other" which brings no value for secular reasoning" Wrong. There is your secular reasoning...they love each other. That is the premise in which people get married. They love each other and want to be wedded. That's as secular is you can get. "Civil Union" is a terrible non-argument- marriage is not simply a civil union, it is a sentimental ceremony and a matter of fiduciary concern. "You too are letting the religious argument cloud your judgement, but hopefully you'll overcome this deficiency someday." Your mental gymnastics are ineffective. "Again, the government has every right to subsidize production of things that will sustain its society." Doesn't mean jackshit. Doesn't mean that it SHOULD. "There are 2 major concerns in polygamy." Not an argument. The government has no role in stipulating what people can and cannot do when their actions harm no one. Individuals in society isn't the governments concern, only policy, and policy cannot be enacted based on an inconclusive premise, or at least it shouldn't be. Is there data to show that marriage in general creates familial problems and thus effects individuals in society? Yes. So stfu, because it still will not nor could ever be made illegal. Polygamy was outlawed purely on contentious religious rationale. Divorce rates skyrockets, families suffer, why isn't marriage outlawed? You still have not laid out a refutation, because I assume you have none. I rest my case.

  3086. Your justification doesn't make it right, ponder that, oh ye old gorm- and honestly, I can tell if it's red herring to try and encapsulate your ridiculous holdover ideals, if and only if you aren't addressing these ridiculous claims to Styx anymore, and are only addressing them to me; otherwise, it is simply a clever Strawman. Styx made the claim that it is a moral quandary and not a merely metaphysical one at that, instead of a logical quandary; and thus it's legalese and it's justification (this so-called ordinance) is bullshit on the face of it, because it is a moral quandary, instead of a more logical stepping stone into a more cohesive and stable society- and we have to see it to believe it, as stark-raving mad moral busy-bodies would have at any length within their grasp to obscure that fact, because of the facile and ill-conceived conclusions based on their fearful predilections, furthermore, of course, only based on MORAL QUANDARIES ie, 6% of people think smoking is bad enough to warrant it's illegality in public venues ect, and some people think less people in a society is morally wrong as it would weaken the state of the nation as a whole, which is bad because it's wrong. All moral implications, impinged on the masses by the few whom whine and project enough about their fear of destruction. Civilizations have survived big and small, and there is such a thing as NATURAL SELECTION, you know- maybe you should ponder that too. A nation where a sum few idiots doesn't get to decide to impinge of the rights of another minority on the basis that they are gay, (not a moral argument, by the by, but simply logical one, QED...), while the more gay society can be kept happy, the more production in the state, the greater the wealth expenditure (of course, in the hands of the people, including you idiots, sadly), and the greater the ability to produce off-spring. Do you know how many kids are fostered? STFU you stark raving mad idiot. I hate to tell to go away, but it's your idiocy that's astoundingly distasteful.

  3226. you can fight for your lack of beliefs (and no one said that you fight the beliefs of deities; that has nothing to do with anything and you're misunderstanding me), in order to denote that lack of belief as the thing to think. that's fundamentalism. you are dead wrong. if you fundamentally believe that you are right and anyone thinking differently is wrong (and anything that goes along with that) that is precisely fundamentalism. sorry you can't see that. and i don't if this was you or not, but...i think i made the distinction here that Athe-ISM, cannot be fundamentalist by it's nature of being an ideal. an atheIST on the otherhand is a person, who can be as fundamentalist in their views as anyone else, religion or no. (and sometimes literally is just used for emphasis, so as you can see, language has clearly evolved beyond your understanding. literally.) essentially Atheist who presume that religious people are dangerous or nuts simply because of their beliefs (as opposed to their actions) are being fundamentalists. you can call them fundamental materialists, too, but they identify as Atheist, so it's just as fitting. you can refer to it as merely a pejorative, but i think it's rather well suited considering the in-group mentality of Atheists and their disregard for logic in determining whether they're correct in their views or not. you cannot prove there's no God, it's inherently an illogical point of view to believe that you can assume "it" doesn't exist. meaning you're just about as bad as any Christian fundamentalist. crazy eh?
    1
  3227. you are going LALALA. you can't even understand logic or words. let me break it down for you more. first off: Literally is used for emphasis. it's not wrong. it's not formal English but it's not "unacceptable" to say something like "your ass is literally stupid" and have that not be clear in it's intended message. the literally is for EMPHASIS. read a dictionary. two: "Nowhere does it say: the desire to spread your opinions" and nowhere did I say that. so can you just learn how to read? i said that if you THINK that someone else's THINKING is wrong because you think your's is right, fundamentally, without any proof or rationale, you are being fundamentalist. also that you think that you can insist there is no God via your orthodox belief systems, rather than empirical proof. that's another great form fundamentalism from Atheists, because they think they CAN. but yet, they can't. ever. because it's illogical and unreasonable. three: i already said definitions change all the time, and fundamentalism isn't solely about believes, it can apply to viewpoints and thoughts as well. you can be a fundamentalist religious person or political person or doctorate, or whatever, i don't care; if you're fundamentally sticking to your metaphorical "guns" with no rationality involved, and refuse to change your adherence to these "guns" and irrationality, than you are being FUNDAMENTAL in your beliefs, thoughts, ideals, actions, ect ect ect you don't get this though...right...even still? (and what does any of what i'm saying here, or the definition of fundamentalism, have to do with being MORE ATHEIST?) you can call them fundamental materialists, too, but they identify as Atheist, so it's just as fitting. you can refer to it as merely a pejorative, but i think it's rather well suited considering the in-group mentality of Atheists and their disregard for logic in determining whether they're correct in their views or not. you cannot prove there's no God, it's inherently an illogical point of view to believe that you can assume "it" doesn't exist. meaning you're just about as bad as any Christian fundamentalist. crazy eh?

  3228. "The WRONG use of "literally" is only a few years old, and incredibly fucking annoying. You need a word like "literally" to mean exactly instead of just another word for emphasis. I'm going to ignore this, because it's largely irrelevant." annoying sure. but language isn't fundamentalist. it can't be. it doesn't come from a place of strict adherence. and you can keep saying "by definition" but you're still wrong. my definition holds up. religious doctrine and precepts to be held to strict adherence, is the EXACT same thing as INSISTING and ASSUMING all the while that god doesn't exist. you'd be far safer in your presumptuous attitude without the whole unsubstantiated claims department running amok. "How can I strictly adhere to the idea of lacking a belief in deities? It doesn't make sense." by presuming that God doesn't exist and presuming that everyone should follow that logic or be wrong/dangerous/whatever else you can think ect. that's how. like i said Fundamentalist Atheism is distinct from the concept here of your being a fundamentalist Atheist. two different things. "You pulled this right out of your ass, so I'll ignore this drivel." =( oh no you can't understand words again. go get that dictionary. "Since atheism has no rules, claiming strict adherence to "their rules" is nearly meaningless." oh really, no rules? how about the rule of thumb that there is no God? there is no evidence of that BTW, which makes the presumption illogical on the face of it. it is a precept in Atheism, and thus there are rules. like i said, if you think that someone's thinking is wrong simply because you BELIEVE your thinking is more correct, that directly delineates to the same exact type of thinking that Christian or Muslim fundamentalists have in tandem with their views on the world. which form of thinking is in the precept's definition; it's a BELIEF, because there is no evidence to support the claim; which BTW i am not claiming here that there is a God, i'm just pointing out your insistence in the belief that there isn't one. you can be SUPER SUPER Atheist, because according to you, you can't not not believe in non-beliefs, while apparently you can. Atheist do it everytime they insist that God doesn't exist, and everyone who thinks it does is wrong and must be ostracized. Dawkin Militants are the most grandiose fundamentalist Atheist, even though Dawkins isn't even fundamentalist in his views. he's an actual intelligent Atheist. it's amazing. but it's also like wow... the following. DUR.
    1
  3229. i don't wanna do this again. look i told you already... AtheISM, AtheIST. two different things. Atheist do much against their own precepts when they, in fact, claim there is no God. they do this. this is what the guy in the video was referring to as "fundamentalist". "An atheist does not insist that god doesn't exist. You don't know what you're talking about. " right. but yet many do. they aren't doing a good job are they? "That is not, by definition, fundamentalism. " then what is it? "Being agnostic atheist is not a lesser version of atheism. " no it isn't, it's a greater form of Atheism. "The atheist does not claim that there is no god. He simply rejects the belief in deities. It's not the same." that's the purport, but that's not what many Atheists do. so you're telling there are fake Atheists? well that hurts the perception of the there being no fundamentalist Atheists. "Which is why so few atheists claim to know that there is no god. They can't, and they accept that." and yet so many do and they are the fundamentalists i'm talking about. they make up a huge proportion of those whom write Atheist literature and on broadcasting. "You're confusing agnosticism, gnosticism, and atheism; distinctions that are very important. " i don't think so. i am merely addressing those who do what they shant do to believe what they will fundamentally, and that is believe that there is no God and to tout that belief as absolutely correct. i know that's not what Atheism is supposed to be about, and maybe that'll change, but for now that's the overall rally cry. you should probably talk to those people and tell them to hold up with their fundamental beliefs on...non-beliefs. which is just absurd, of course. people who claim to be just "atheist" should even be discussing God. but this again, is what the guy in the video was addressing. not YOU and your specific Atheism, specifically. he as talking about gnostic atheists whom believe that they know that there is no God, with no proof. they are almost militant in their process. that's why he called them fundamentalists. because they will tell you that you're wrong and their right, and never wriggle from that position, no matter how much it makes no sense, and stick with that as a rule of thumb, that God does not exist, which is fundamental in it's viewpoint.
    1
  3230. "Very, very, very few atheists claim to know there is no god. You don't know what you're talking about. A gnostic atheist is not a "fundamental atheist". Atheism is not fundamentally about gnostic atheism. You don't know what you're talking about." you keep saying i don't know what i'm talking about, yet you admit that "very very few claim to blah blah" well, those very very few (which are more than very very few) are the ones i'm referring to. so no...no i'm not wrong. by your very logic. you dolt. so if it happens it happens. and i am talking about fundamentalism in thoughts and viewpoints. if i said "if you don't do or think what i think you should do or think you should be removed from making decisions" that's a fundamental point of view and thus a fundamentalist point of view to adhere to. plenty militant atheists (the ones you claim are so so very few and yet don't exist, hmmm how does that work again?) proclaim that God DOES NOT EXIST. they are the fundamentalists i am referring to. and i am just explaining the guy in the video's perspective reasoning in calling them Atheists. i am explaining to you, because you can't understand the concept. good day. please no more telling what Atheism means, i know what it means. too bad so many "Atheists" don't. and no, before you come back with a response, no, i'm not referring to you. i was never referring to you, and if you can't gather what the explanation was for, i'll assume it's probably because you're slightly offended. so just don't bother.
    1
  3231. "Which are nonexistant" making the fundamentalism extremely stupid. "That is not what fundamentalism means." uhh what is fundamental and/or is touted as fundamental and is adhered to, equals the term fundamental-ism. the word does not solely apply to religious sects. you are just sooooo damn wrong, and can't fathom how or why. the word it's so confusing for you because it's not expounded on in whatever dictionary you're reading. LOL you can't ENGLISH. "I'm trying to make you understand why you're wrong, too." by assuming that Atheists have no fundamental points of view. LOL but yet they do. you may not...but that's arguable as well...though whatever the case, it doesn't change the fact of those who treat Atheism as a fundamental belief structure. didn't i say that already, or was it another Atheist trying to say that "Atheist is strictly defined by having no beliefs". lol, yes true. i already said that was true but this doesn't stop people from entreating their fundamentalism into their Atheism. if you don't believe me, good for you. i have had experience with many a type of flagrant ignorance from Atheists, both falsely touting there is absolutely no God, and those like you whom say i'm confusing the term...no i'm not. i know that Atheism means Lack of Beliefs, BUT that's not what MANY Atheists ACTUALLY believe; NOR even when that IS the case; they do not "not believe", they merely SAY IT, and then tout that anyone who thinks there is a God is wrong; and how would they know that. they are incorrect in calling themselves Atheists. that is what the guy in the video was describing. it's what i am describing. you still insist that i am talking about you. you're really daft. and stupid. "So basically, "fundamentalist" doesn't mean what you want it to mean" no, a fundamentalist means someone who adheres to fundamentalism, and what is fundamentalism, it is the adherence to values, believes, thoughts, feelings, ect that are fundamental to the person. that's it. it's very simple and it's not as simple as what you tout it to be, because you're a simp.
    1
  3232. dude i'm not talking with you i'm running circles over your head. "Atheism is not an ideology" it's certainly held as one. and Atheism as merely a "proposition" is still adherent to the ideology that "no Gods exist". it's in the word...A - THEISM. Theism meaning belief in a God, so hence A-Theism is the lack of a belief in A GOD. SPECIFICALLY. Atheists have reclaimed the word, rightfully so, and i agree with the proponent here, only i'm explaining what the guy in the video was referring to, i wasn't looking to wax philosophical on how the word has come to mean "a position which holds no beliefs" nor pontificate about the changing of the meaning of the word from it's root definition. it's ACTUAL definition...seeing as though i find words to be malleable, i have no qualms with that, at all. " It is not possible to "strictly adhere to" a lack of belief in deities" no, but like i said, it's possible to adhere to your desire to have people think like you do, which is entirely ... wait for it... a FUNDAMENTAL point of view for many Atheists who DO claim there is ABSOLUTELY NO GOD. and those are the "Atheists" (and i use the term lightly here) that the guy in the video was referring to. it's a pejorative. you guys and your "but it means no beliefs ugh!" do you even realize what Theist means? it means belief in a God... and A-Theism means... SPECIFICALLY... THE LACK OF BELIEF IN A GOD. SPECIFICALLY. the meaning has just merely been commandeered, which is totally ok. just so long as the original meaning isn't lost. which it seems to have been with many louts who think that they can bowl over logic with pure insistence of, ironically, their beliefs. you believe that Atheism means "no beliefs period" and that's good...good for you. doesn't change the actual meaning of the word, however, in ecumenical discussion. PS: you've not actually addressed anything i've said and just been repeating yourself, so i'll assume you have no idea what i am saying.
    1
  3233. dude, i know the definition of words simply more precisely than you do. you're pigeon holing yourself into strict, lousy, and incomplete definition. here i'll repeat myself again so you can bask in how little you can grasp. A-THEISM. A for Antithesis, Theism for Belief in a God. that's the original definition. it's been beleaguered into being re-defined as "a lack of any and all beliefs", but that doesn't erase the actual word's semantical purpose. "This is what I mean. Atheism isn't an ideology. Anyone who claims it don't understand it. It's fundamentally dishonest to have this as a starting point." i know, i was explaining how the guy in the video used "fundamentalist" as a pejorative against the kind of people who DO claim it to be an ideology. what the flying fuck is so hard to understand here? we are arguing for no reason. "Atheism does not say: "I believe no gods exist". It says: "I lack a belief in gods".  still an ideology. the ideal here being that you lack any beliefs in Gods, and the ideology here being that you insist on that as the lens in which you view the world. "He, and you, are using the words flat out wrongly." no, we are using words in a malleable way, using "fundamentalist" as a pejorative for "crazy believing person". "Not once have I said this. I've said over and over and over that atheism is a lack of belief IN DEITIES" that's funny, what a strange ideology. you believe in the lack of something that you can't prove the lack thereof? kinda crazy. but you know in even STRICTER definitions Atheism is defined as having a lacking in ANY BELIEFS at all. as you can see the word does not mold to exactly your astringent idea of the word. and you are really quite abjectly not objective. you can't grasp simple concepts of language, semantics and the argument here in general. you are completely oblivious to what's being told to you, though i am not. take care.

  3237. "Just not an atheist fundamentalist, but sure." my point being there is fundamentalism within Atheism, as a sub-set, a group. there are really really stupid Atheists who do not understand a thing about what's logical. "because there are no rules or tenants or dogma" save the dogma of trying to militarize the incentive to bash Christians and Muslims. it happens all over youtube. don't act like it doesn't happen. "You don't know what you're talking about." nah, i'm pretty sure you're just offended. Atheism (lack of belief in Gods) is much less sensible than Agnosticism (the uncertainty of the existence of God) because one is scientific the other is just assumption without evidence. which dogma follows rampantly, because there is no way to actually say "i'm an Atheist" without being slightly misinformed about the scientific method and about religiousness in general. you can't lack a belief in something that you say you don't believe but yet acknowledge in other people, that their thoughts are wrong based on absolutely no evidence. you can call that the dogma and fundamentalism of Atheists. (again not Atheism, but Atheists who are too stupid to recognize how circular their logic is) it's much better as a backlash to Christianity, because at least then you're being honest. or just presume to not have any knowledge at all. then you're not not believing a lack of belief that you insist upon, yet is in question everytime it's said "i don't believe in Gods". how? you seen how there's no God? i don't think so. you just wish you did, so you can say "i know there's no god, i'm right, anyone who thinks there is one is wrong". that's pretty much the only reason for Atheism. to promote there is no Gods. or to simply lack any belief in any God, but then again, as i said...you can't know, so it's illogical on the face of it. and i'd say there is certainly a dogma following militant Atheism because people form coalitions and aim to change society and it's rules based on a presumption by an in-group of people who want to believe there is nothing to believe about Gods, under assumption that there is none, which is essentially a belief. and it's touted as a belief structure as well. "i don't believe in Gods" (which is exactly the same as saying "i lack any beliefs in Gods"; it's the exact same line of reasoning and the way it's worded doesn't change a single iota of fact about the statement) is in fact a belief. it's just a stand alone statement like "i like chips". if you can believe in God, if you can believe in the Sun, if you can believe in Doritos, you can believe in Atheism, making it quite the untidy little ideology indeed. again, not saying YOU do it. but you don't speak for all Atheists, whom i guess haven't gotten the memo.

  3238. 1
  3239. 1
  3240. yet you posit it positively as something that you have and regard for yourself. you don't reject your own belief in the lacking of a belief, so there's your belief right there. a belief is just an instance of thinking something is true or right, formulated by nothing, by your mind. you do that very thing by insisting on that you lack any beliefs in Gods. that in itself is a believe, simply because you can't know whether you're right or wrong. and there are alot of weird Atheists who think that the world would be better off Atheist, and that other people's beliefs are dangerous and stupid. i'd say belief, in general, is dangerous and stupid. which is a fundamental precept of Atheism in general. you can twist words as much as you'd like to support your thesis here, but it's just again recombining the different beliefs you have into a sense of "lacking any beliefs" which wouldn't be a belief if it was true that to "lack belief in Gods" is sensible and rational, but yet it isn't because you couldn't possibly know if it was or not. that's your problem with belief. that you need it in order to justify your lack of belief in a God or Gods. if you think you are right about something you cannot proof, that's a belief. and of course again fundamentalism isn't an Atheist trait. it's a trait of belief. you have to presume you are right, without any evidence, in order to believe you are right, which is a fundamental precept of belief in the lack of beliefs in Gods. so in that way, while Atheism isn't a fundamentalist idea, AtheISTs on the otherhand can hold fundamentalist ideals. you'll never really understand the concept here. but you really are a good Atheist. so bravo. but Atheism cannot be incontrovertible in it's assessment of the belief in no God, because there is no evidence to support that proposition. you can say there i don't believe in Gods, and that's perfectly rational, but then to think that you're right about that, is not. because you couldn't know.
    1
  3241. Atheism is not a belief, it's a belief structure. those under this presumption of belief, they are called Atheists. calling yourself an Atheist is a belief, just the same as calling yourself a Hindu. they (Atheists) belief that there is a wholly lacking instance of any Gods. which is a belief. you're wrong about your definition of fundamentalism. fundamentalism, the word, is not solely related to belief structures, but also beliefs in general, thoughts, feelings, ect. if you fundamentally think/feel that there are no Gods, that is a fundamentalist perspective on the existence of Deities, one that excludes the criteria in believing deities, but nonetheless is still a belief structure. you identify as Atheist, you're proposing your convictions that you are correct in your presumptions, which is considered a belief and which is illogical. you aren't going to get any farther in this discussion. you think Atheists do not hold fundamental beliefs about the world, yet they do. that's why there is fundamentalist Atheists. they aren't fundamentalist because they lack belief in Gods, they are fundamentalists for believing they are right about their presumptions about the world, having no evidence to show that they are right. ie militant Atheists. and you, for carrying on so long trying to convince me a belief structure isn't a belief structure but just a stand alone position of nothingness. you can't think nothingness. it's impossible. you do not know Nothing. so hence there is Something. the preponderance of your belief that you lack any belief of Gods, whilst you couldn't possibly know the truth of that. without knowing the truth, or any facts, it is therefore not a fact, nor truth, but a belief in and of itself. maybe not so bad as believing that Atheism is the "correct way" to think, but it's nonetheless a belief structure you adhere to. if you didn't, you'd be able to discern between the lack of a belief and your conviction that you are correct in your assertions that there is no Gods, because your lack of a belief in Gods tacitly implies there was something right about the assertion that there is no Gods, which you cannot know.

  3260. yes, i'll grant you it's a semantic argument, but a perfectly fine one. but also -- nevertheless, this is not a separation of church and state, as the congress is state, and prayer is church. there should be a petition of the government to halt these ceremonies as they infringe on the non-religious beliefs that money shouldn't be wasted on nothingness. "The First Amendment's Establishment Clause prohibits the government from making any law “respecting an establishment of religion.” This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another. It also prohibits the government from unduly preferring religion over non-religion, or non-religion over religion." - https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/establishment_clause these priests are taking taxpayer money to pray in congress. this isn't Free exercise. i know you think that's not how the clause was worded, but it was...it says "or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" -- in the very wording it states "no law [shall be made] against 'prohibiting' ( thus now already noted as being unable to be done) the '*free exercise thereof'*; making the phrase accountable as another piece of this clause OTHER THAN the 'prohibition' phrase, because it has, as such, already been stated -- so the phrase 'free' must be part of something else, because the law being unable to prohibit religious practice is already given precedent by the 'prohibition' phrase -- thus the phrase 'free' must be referring to the cost of the practices.
    1
  3261. 1
  3262. it would when i point out the clause -- if we deny the phrase "free" means anything after "prohibition" -- is worded faultily, and requires personal interpretation that would require degrees of legalist psychobabble from christians to admonish the proposition that "free" means more than just "prohibition" again, and that the clause is repeating itself, and being unclear in it's language. and also, it'd be pointed out that: "Constitutional scholars and even Supreme Court opinions have contended that the two religion clauses are in conflict. E.g., Thomas v. Review Board, 450 U.S. 707 (1981). As mentioned previously, the Free Exercise Clause implies special accommodation of religious ideas and actions, even to the point of exemptions to generally applicable laws. Such a special benefit seems to violate the neutrality between “religion and non-religion” mandated by the Establishment Clause. McConnell explains: If there is a constitutional requirement for accommodation of religious conduct, it will most likely be found in the Free Exercise Clause. Some say, though, that it is a violation of the Establishment Clause for the government to give any special benefit or recognition of religion. In that case, we have a First Amendment in conflict with itself—the Establishment Clause forbidding what the Free Exercise Clause requires.[4] Historically, the Supreme Court has been inconsistent in dealing with this problem. When the Court leans toward more accommodation for the Free Exercise Clause, there is greater conflict." https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/free_exercise_clause for greater effect.

Troll: 1. informal make a deliberately offensive or provocative online posting with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them. 2. fish by trailing a baited line along behind a boat. or carefully and systematically search an area for something. all of the parts to show you how you're misinterpreting are in bold: when you say "troll", you actually mean "bait". now you don't need to define "troll" with a boat, no, that was just an attempt at humor, truly, i don't think you could really take it as anything other than exaggeration, for effect, that i pointed out zero boats. but in effect, you are still wrong to call what people do in real life "trolling" unless it involves the concept of leaving a message online to provoke or upset, seeing as what you mean is "bait". now you don't need boats, or a line, or a fish, no, but you do need to understand what i'm saying, when you say "troll" it carries a connotation. you're talking about online trolls...unless you mean the mythological troll, i guess...because the other kind of "trolling", the kind you're referring to, involves towing a baited line along a boat, on water, presumably; it's literally "baiting" that you're referring to when pointing to what Alex Jones did. because that is the actual word/term you're looking for: see above. don't commit to the fallacy of extension. i am literally right. this is insuperable for you to wiggle out of with selective attention. if you have a rebuttal, i'll grant it, but take note: i have not stated that you can't use the word troll to define something that isn't trolling, but i would argue that it's less prevaricating to use the proper term "bait", in real world contexts, so people wouldn't presume that anything less than a prank would suffice for the term "troll" being used, seeing how it's hard to bring internet terms into the real world without making the language used more obfuscating. rebuttal? or no?

  3314. Wow...you're just plain ignorant; the names change, the ideas remain the same. The names change? That's awfully convenient. So at one point conservatism was what? Not conservatism but what? Liberalism? or no, was it Traditionalism? Well, you tell me what conservatism was 'back then'. Good luck with that. But no, what seems to ACTUALLY be the case (you know, in reality, not your idealism), is that the IDEAS change, while the NAMES stay the same, quite the opposite of your imaginings. The modern Progressivist philosophy has far more in common with serfdom than Conservativism. That's sort of besides the point, isn't it? But regardless, modern "progressivism" doesn't have anything to do with serfdom, even if, as a consequence, it attracts morons whom'd give in to it's promulgation. Same goes with modern Conservatism- just see the last video on this channel, where there was every moron calling for the death of all gays because they've been told it's degeneracy. But again, doesn't change the fact that pre-modern nations (ie, nations therefore which conserved their ideals of themselves) had serfdom, openly. Hell, just look at Table Mountain, you ingrate. He never stated what you described. Perhaps you should work on your reading comprehension dipshit. Sure he did, he just didn't realize it...and I damn well won't shut up, because just look at the idiocy it attracts, this kind of blatant craptacular bullshit you want to swill because it somehow vindicates you, or validates you. Nah, I love exposing that shit for what it truly is, it's a dog wearing a cape.

  3398. ISIS, as soon as they took off, and we were made aware, should have been sent not just ordinance, but boots on the ground as well. prevent them from taking a hold like they did...but Russia will take care of that now. i guess it just makes America look bad when we're on the forefront of taking action like that...but then again, you look at the disaster that was Iraq, and you can see why the people didn't want to go in; but man, ISIS is worse than anything we've seen so far. i really wish we would have taken more pertinent preventative measures...not another Iraq and Bengazi, which is what is now the result, because we were, as usual, slow on the draw, due to political fears. this some of the few issues i'm conservative on, and yes, it's a bit regressive, isn't it? i can't go back in time obviously, but, thing is Russia will deal with it better than we can, at this point; but it has already had spun out of control anyway. PS: it's also not a smart idea to attack them too early, let me clarify; as soon as we had gotten SUPPORT from the Saudi's, basically, that's when we immediately should have gone in. now, it all makes us look bad, except in the Russians sake, because they are actually just defending their allies; it doesn't make them look like provocateurs, which surely the US would have probably been accused of, if we went in at the wrong time, and that would have led to greater insurgence of ISIS across the board. this is a tricky long game, we can't obviously attack without due reasoning and intelligence, because we can't rattle or swords at people whom might end up radicalizing because of it.

  3421. it only opens up the doors to people potentially twisting their words, to promote against their values, which, frankly, can easily not exist, just like anyone's particular values. consensus will dictate the truth of the matter, or at least, what we will be able to see of it. you can even take the constitution and twist it to be interpreted in all sorts of untrue ways,...like for example, there shall be no infringing on the right to bear arms, yet, this is not entirely true...it's interpreted, and thus it's not follow literally. that is because there is no perfect system; that's why having amendable clauses in the constitution (and having the declaration, which states the potential necessity for a 'reboot', so to speak) is so important, and why that document is the most accurate and noble document, almost, to ever exist...i'd even argue it is the best, period...because the writers knew that truth comes in a variety of forms, because they knew that in a free country, people will have vastly differing opinions about what's "valued" in society -- and they knew that no one person was ever 100% correct, in terms of a free country, because dictator's have no place in a free country. we all come to our own truths -- some our applicable to the external world around us -- some are merely only applicable to the individual -- not all opinions are created equal, in otherwords -- so there needs to be room for competition. my point here is: the competition will always get dirty if you give your opponents ammo, and your opponent, in politics, will scrounge for whatever ammo they need to put some holes in the competition, so to speak. i wish we could all always be transparent, but it's just not realistic. it's just like posting yourself doing illegal shit on Facebook - essentially, one is just asking for trouble. -- politics is always merely the battle for hearts and minds -- at least in a free nation, anyway. sorry if this seems vacuous, but it's not. giving over ammo to the enemy when you know they are gonna use it against you, regardless if the said "ammo" was "true" ammo or "false", it's still ammo to be used, and people will trust people, sometimes, based on faulty information -- so why give them ammo, period? let them scour for it. "The only claim i made was TYT are bullshitting in this video when they say they are funded by the members it's blatant bullshit." they are funded by the members. they've been kept afloat by the members for a decade now. they've had Roemer for how long? a couple years? "No they don't they show people donating funds to campaigns for candidates they believe will vote in a favorable way to what they want." "That's no different to any donation even if it's 1 dollar everyone donates to a candidate they think will vote for their needs and wants." it's not the money that's the problem. again, donations would be fine, if only there wasn't SuperPACs created by large corporate donors that swing the votes to their favorite runner -- all for kickbacks, so they can continue to off-load their tax burden onto the people.

  3462. Islam foundering a new and more tolerant belief structure, in which they abrogate the sin apostasy (would be a GREAT start) would be immensely good for everyone who has been effected by the blight of radicalism -- maybe some good can come out of that, in this area against the radicals as well. if they want their religion to not influence evil bullshit, and want it to be more peaceful, than they should help stop the fuckers in ISIS, for example. really, the Saudi's won't...but another country might, and it'd be great, just say it with me Muslims "killing apostates is wrong, because beliefs in and of themselves are harmless to your religion; unless our religion is already wrong". -- damn Mr Geography. -- PS: i gotta do some reading on the Vedics...those dudes definitely did shrooms. -- on Pagan's; LOL. that sucks. there is so much history and literature to dive into, but alas, gotta make that dolla dolla bill ya'll...oh God...did i just quote Fred Durst? oh whew...lucky me, that was stolen from Wu-Tang Clan. for a second, i thought i'd have to commit seppuku. --- and now we have it...caveman shrooming. gotta love the art of the mind. and the lightning. yep. that's my theory too...lightning strikes, cracks rock, rock falls on head, everyone is thinking "well gee, we gotta capture this force of power in some way". lightning strikes a tree = you got fire, now they want that now. ect ect -- and you speak "or something" without moving your lips -- reptile confirmed. (LOL) -- Wakatng? LOL. there's an idea...the great bible of Caveman Names. Salvia mention = win --- paragraphs in a youtube comment? not a chance. --- Jefferson --- damn, you know your history. good job man. -- i wonder how many people know that Christ is better represented by the intellect, and that a burnished bronze red-eyed deity doesn't exactly look like something you usually would identify, in America, with Jesus. oh and i just realized something -- lol, books were made along time ago to deal with most devilish thing that's ever persisted, death. LOL genius. "i know how i can control people...i'll help them worry less about dying. they'll love me." - God. but damn god...isn't it just recording stuff that we're doing? God: "sure, CynicalBastard" -- Me: thanks God. --- oh and yes, finally, i've heard someone say it, Atheism has cast it's dogma as it's pope, already, especially in Atheist movements like Atheism+. an anti-religious dogma...most Atheist's heads explode.

  3553. i question the validity of climate science as it pertains to climate change being a threat to humanity, but i don't see a problem with the study in and of itself. that study is questioning the nature of "climate change". which is good, because to know is power. i question the validity of gun control, given my talks and inferences, but i also question those who insist that people want to confiscate their guns...obviously the majority of people just want to see more "regulation", ie, more background checks and balances on the selling of guns. i hate seeing that notion mixed up with the notion that "the lefties wanna take yer guns!" that's not really a lefty position, more of a ultra-progressive position (prevarication, but the notion getting confused, nonetheless, is of note as being a "non-questioning" position. it's annoying.) i question the validity of Christian doctrine being foisted into law for non-believers, within certain states, just as much as i question the validity of pure atheism, and their proponents therein, whom insist that all religion is a scourge that must be stopped...i consider it more an antiquated art-form/ritualistic format of belief systems. i question the validity of pacifism only to the extent that it's a viable SOP for when your life is in danger of being taken by another...but not as a means to an end to war; i also see validity in taking up arms, if you or your people are being attacked, though also question the validity of war...not of the senses, and of emotion, but of resources, and of conquering land. i think diplomacy works best, but don't i think we should all intermingle our cultures, as opposed to simply letting some culture in, to reside, without fundamentally changing the original cultures identity. of course, one (the latter) is a fine deal, the former is out of the question. i question the notion of insular society as a "necessity" to mankind's well-being. i also question whether a nation can do away entirely with welfare, or not; consider this: if everyone made "their own way" through start-ups of independent businesses, eventually the market would become watered down, and people would only have the choice between many similar products, by means that would entail that people pick and choose, most likely, what is closest and easiest for them to purchase, while more rural businesses simply wouldn't be able to compete, and they'd have to either move or shut down...this sounds like it'd lead to an overly homogenized, over-crowded, civic center metropolis, which would then be governed entirely different than what we see today.

  3554. i think the main argument is about the fact of mass shooters, and mental health screenings, not so much that guns are inherently destructive in society, but some people do think that too, like far-leaning progressives. i don't agree with the sentiment, necessarily; it seems that mass shootings have decreased, almost like as if it was a fad; and the fact is, as well, that those incidences were, on the overall, tiny blips on the radar, something that never really was as "dire" a threat as people made it out to be. in principal, i don't disagree with better mental health screening...but then again, i'm not sure, exactly, how that'd be employed, and what the general effect might be outside of simply constraining the process of getting a gun for certain people whom should be screened for say paranoid, or anti-social tendencies. really, it's a matter of pragmatism; if it can be done without impinging on those whom can actually pass that type of screening, and/or those whom do not require said "screening". but i may be wrong, i have to consider the fact that that seems to be infringing on the constitutional rights of those whom have mental issues -- though, we don't allow criminals to have guns either, do we? so to me, it's quite the conundrum that has no easy answer, so i'm still on the fence about the idea. after all, i don't believe in seeking out "thought-crime", but, then again, we do not allow criminals to have guns, why? because we predict they'll use them in a crime. that's why. so it's quite...insuperable, this conundrum....it hurts my head. oh and gun sales on the black market should be looked into as well. i mean, this is illegal, afterall, and gun sellers are perpetrating against the law, fielding firearms on the black market.

And Nietzsche, and Kant, and Hegel, and many more, but especially Marx...the material-unmaterial per-son. Charaktēres. -- You've done something you should have done, accretions (sediments?), etc... You go on to explain in no uncertain terms the very things to be found in yogic schools, like Karma, and Bhakti, and Gyan yoga, specifically are highlighted here, Raja yoga, of course, is nestled safe in Jesus Christ. -- 2:31:50 -- Here, this sounds like something from Deleuze & Guatarri. Then you go onto speak about "appearing" meaning, and well, you didn't quite put it in that exact sense, but...formally, this is easily attenuated to the rest of the discussion's highlights...this near scholastic or even Marxian take [cf. also, "reification as recognition"]...and this is the problem I have with this notion of "appearing meaning/appearance of meaning"...people seem to be able to justify so much atrocity, and marginalization, and provocation, and fanaticism, beliefs, whatever, "capitalism",...all these axiomatics are self-justifiable only insofar as these assertions have been promulgated by predilections [already highlighted by people (personalities and their speeches and writings) like Marx and Freud and Jung and Kant, without exception, etc.] towards an unknown [hence the Landian approach to "accelerationist capitalism"]...all this self-justifying and self-righteousness is what's "toxic" in society. Then we go onto this "unconscious set of undefined axioms", which is nicely said, too. This is almost "occult" in it's aspect, spooky-doo, ooooo, ghostly-creepy crawlies. "Personalities", Charaktēres. This subterranean-Platonic double-bind [it appears, quite plainly] is the crux of many interesting things. The "Socratic Daemon". Try to stop doing that -- Have initiation.

  4384. First off, good luck getting anyone to follow you, being that you have no inspiration other than "you live in a city and it's blocky-looking". And secondly: you aren't really getting passed the "coping mechanism". You are either going to go it alone...or you will eventually build society anew. Society always crops up. Why do you think things are the way they are now? Because the redundancy of survivalism creates a tension that is alleviated by social ends...having a family creates a stock, but it also creates a means for tension to be released. Now all of a sudden you don't have to do all the work...suddenly you find yourself laughing, for once...it's addictive...it's purely natural. It's also natural to want to escape society. You say "hitech civilization is for people who can't cope with reality"? That is a fucking stretch. You ever try coping with the reality of simply living in a forest, with your mind playing tricks on you? You ever experience what is like to truly just "be" in the middle of danger? Try it before you insist that civilization needs to "hark back" to those times. Cope with the fact that civilization itself is just a coping mechanism for people who can't endure nature and has declared war on her. Cope ^ This is pure Cope. No, really. You think people have engendered themselves to rendering civilizations because it's "easier to cope with"? Ok, then go and be in nature...exile yourself. But it's good to know that at least some people, like yourself, are starting to realize what your problem truly is...society itself.

  4408.  @Americansikkunt  You don't see how the "right" is stuck either having to make progress, or to relinquish themselves to the dust-bin of history, or, third option, to abandon American ideals and values for something other than those values, et al., which are so ascribed to American sentiments. Intersectional politics aside, you are committing to this stride to "blow-up" the left [or watch them implode, whatever the case may be], all while the "right" pretty well does the same thing; implode. I don't have to call the "right" "nasis". Nasism is a very specific ideology, it's mostly got people who literally value old Germany over the American counter-part to their identity. But fascism is another thing: leftists can be fascistic, as well. Fascism doesn't only occur [at least, historically, it can be shown to be an open-ended aspect of reactionary politics] by way of some merited doctrine...even if such a thing has been proposed [cf. Doctrine Of Fascism, but, this is just Mussolini's fascism]. Fascistic tendencies can be seen across the board, in the political spectrum. And by the by, "anything right-leaning"? that is a non-existent aberration. There is no "right". What is "right-leaning" that is "being cancelled"? nothing, it has cancelled itself. Oh you don't like civil rights? oh you don't like the LGBTQ+ community? you don't like "the left", you don't like civil society, you want people to "go back", or...whatever...those are disintegrating "values". They aren't very well American values, at all. They are basically holdover opinions of the Judeo-Christian follower. All power to the church, and whatnot: but of course, this is a protestant church [oh sweet irony], so the "church" in this case is just "the people". But "the people" of America are NOT only "right-wing". Whoops! Also: the "right" is "super aware of centrist hate"? you even get "hate" from "centrists"? ok. Like I said, there is no "right" wing. Just a set of disintegrating values. If you can't even hold to the center, then you are going so far-right as to abandon American values: which is why so many people, here and there, are trying to call fascism and nasis "leftists", in the most blatant irony and surreality- and is just another reason why "the right" as you people posit it is simply non-existent, as of right now; it's left the proverbial "building". And I would say people trying to spread a virus around, purposefully, because they want to [not because they might, but to literally "stick it to the man"], are domestic terrorists. But that's just my opinion.

  4599. Give it rest with that tired line. His political views were more nuanced than "He must love Bernie and ANTIFA cause he was a democratic socialist!" No. He criticized all forms of government, and approved of anarchism. Your quote specifies how you are assuming things. He said "I write FOR Democratic Socialism AS I UNDERSTAND IT" (ie, he writes and believes in a socialism that doesn't quite actually get propounded by governments or other philosophers) (Source: https://www.pbs.org/thinktank/transcript990.html -- note that in this transcript it states "for, was italicized"). Yeah...there are different understandings of political ideologies. Go figure. You don't know his exact views on the actions of people like ANTIFA, and the likes of the Democratic party, Bernie Sanders, or anything for that matter. There are nuances you are missing as well. He outlines pros and cons to all forms and changes of government. He warns about Newspeak, ie, political doublespeak, in which the likes of ANTIFA often speak, and the Democratic party speaks. Let me guess, you blindly think he'd approve their double speak because they are "antifash" and/or "democratic"? No. It should also be noted that he was very much so Anti-Communist, so there goes ANTIFA's support, with their anarcho-communist crowd and not to mention their Fascist tactics. He would look at them, attacking peaceful MAGA hat wearing people, and would conclude that their violence is A: Horrible, and B: justifies the rationale for the state, as a means of protection against would-be ANTIFA violent perpetrators. He was vehemently "anarchist" in spirit, because he was anti-authoritarian, but he also realized that there needed to be SOME kind of apparatus of government, so he approve democratic socialism. He said " "it is always necessary to protect peaceful people from violence." Well, that includes peaceful Trump supporters. I can verily say, George is spinning in his grave, when it comes to people such as yourselves.

  4602. 12:38 Wow, care to explain to the class how that paradigm operated within Communist circles? weren't they just poor fucks who wanted to stop elitist crony capitalism and engender nations with greater weal under the accumulation of Capital? then the nazis, in Germany, after in-fighting between Bavaria and communists, start getting co-opted by Hitler and his eschatological parade about the Jews? Of course not...that'd be a complicated video, and would need to be well-thought out. Weren't they all suppressed, respectively? doesn't that explain things? is that not good enough, you need to dress it up, or something? with some spin? Here's some spin right from the horses mouth: “(For crude communism) the community is simply a community of labor and equality of wages, which are paid out by the communal capital, the community as universal capitalist.” "[S]ince it negates the personality of man in every sphere Crude Communism is but the logical expression of private property. General envy constituting itself as a power is the disguise in which greed re-establishes itself and satisfies itself". "One may say that this idea of the community of women is the open secret of this entirely crude and unreflective communism. Just as women are to pass from marriage to universal prostitution, so the whole world of wealth (ie., the objective being of man) is to pass to the relation of universal prostitution with the community." “Both sides of the relation are raised to an unimaginary universality – labor as the condition in which everyone is placed and capital as the acknowledged universality and power of the community.” - Marx Oh look...this explains the uprising of the communist takeover, thru suppression and the reaction to that suppression, making things ultimately worse for everyone. Can't talk that talk, nor walk that walk, though, can ya Styx. Does it hurt to have to lie by omission?

  4611. @Siren Drake It's particularly the nasty parts of fascism that separate it from socialism, and there is obviously a lack of comprehension here, from you. Read about ideograms..."socialism" means a ton of different things...so does "capitalism" [I' ma rich Kock brother, I don't care about the white man at-bottom, but I will pretend to! give me money - See? not what YOU call "capitalism", is it? but they do call it that]. There are three main types of socialism [the beginnings of which, and the latest of which, are outside of the common Marxist dialectics]: 1: the beginnings of socialist talk mainly of the "social" in a culture and era which has not defined capitalism, 2: Marxist socialism, and the dialectic, and 3: self-managed socialism [which was endorsed in various ways, like orthodox versions of communist thought, like Lenin/Maoist as a top-down lite-socialism to acceleration their production and dispersal as communist forces, and is even the ascribed to version of Hitler and Mussolini, whom turned fascist, that is to say, they took the "self-management" aspect of socialism and extrapolated it to the race and the state respectively of their particular positions]. Self-managed socialism is basically the lead up to socialism-lite-actual. It's bound to happen because of the means of production [capitalism] centralises and falls into smaller and smaller hands [consolidation] (cf. synarchy). Of course, the capitalists will use any and all sources of opposition to their own advantage, by trying to turn the tables on opposition and de-limit them. It is shown that races and groups [apart from race] socialise when given the ample opportunity (cf. Chile and the contributions of the libertarian think-tank group, the Mont Pelerin Society).

  4622.  @boomshroomgoonmoon  Socialism, outside of Christian thought [which has it's own definition, universalist]: which translates, in modern socialism, as "social democracy", but that is what absolutizes into a "world-federalist democracy"; it has it's precedence in the fact of a bottom-down "racial" standpoint [most people do not realize this is how national socialism and "socialism" ties together], and by "racial" it doesn't have to be "pure racism" [Hitlerism], it can just mean "civic-body" and it can just as much relate to a "racial unity": that is to say, this "race" aspect [in socialism itself] shows mostly thru the racist paradigm because it's a decision making process [read Hitler: no...I mean, literally] where the "people" recognize their own "Weltanschauung" without the hierarchy of the State at the behest of...well...in Hitler's case, the Jews, but you know what I mean, it's not just "the Jews", it's everyone seemingly "aggregated": which world-federalists love to take advantage of, but also, everyone does: which leads to....: 2: The "fascistic" frame of totalitarian thought is absolutizing itself, in America, with linker-Fachismus [leftist-fascism], and the response is going to be one of three: the motivation will be to fascisize ["we must defend our birthright, fatherland/motherland"], or it will be to proletarianize ["the elite must fall, the State must fall"], or it will co-opt a third [see "fourth position", Dugin], where nation and "pride" will come to mean a greater distrust of government and eventually an anarcho-capitalist sense of wont [cf. Chile].

  4805.  @Dhumm81  PS: 'As the most comprehensive and profound doctrine of development, and the richest in content, Hegelian dialectics was considered by Marx and Engels the greatest achievement of classical German philosophy.... "The great basic thought", Engels writes, "that the world is not to be comprehended as a complex of ready-made things, but as a complex of processes, in which the things, apparently stable no less than their mind images in our heads, the concepts, go through an uninterrupted change of coming into being and passing away... this great fundamental thought has, especially since the time of Hegel, so thoroughly permeated ordinary consciousness that, in its generality, it is now scarcely ever contradicted. But, to acknowledge this fundamental thought in words, and to apply it in reality in detail to each domain of investigation, are two different things.... For dialectical philosophy nothing is final, absolute, sacred. It reveals the transitory character of everything and in everything; nothing can endure before it, except the uninterrupted process of becoming and of passing away, of endless ascendancy from the lower to the higher. And dialectical philosophy, itself, is nothing more than the mere reflection of this process in the thinking brain." Thus, according to Marx, dialectics is "the science of the general laws of motion both of the external world and of human thought"' - Lenin, V. I., On the Question of Dialectics: A Collection, pp. 7–9. Progress Publishers, Moscow, 1980.

  4951.  @Astares9  I'm not a commie, though. The time for that is long past, the retreat into the future has left us away from the potential of a "return" to the ethnos, or for the potential of a "communist revolution" [that isn't crude and forced]. Besides, Marx had stated that the means come about for "revolution" [which I take to be a different meaning here, as a revolution of thinking] is when capitalism is collapsing: not to make it collapse thru force: because the theory [classical] is eschatological. At least, that's how it seems to have evolved, to Marx [as he abjured the communist manifesto, sometime after it's publishing]. For me to be a "commie", whether crude and insurrectionary, or just plain orthodox in my thinking "as a communist" [allegedly], I would have to believe that Marx was inherently correct in his orientation, in toto. I do believe that he was trying to maintain a historical trend of socialism [pagan, even: this sort of trend can be seen in the anthropological dealings some parts of Marxian theory], to maintain the level of society that didn't extend to "civil society" or "global society", and didn't extend into the atomization and thingification of "human resource", and the culture-corruption of these forces he deemed "capitalism" and "capital" itself. Very highfalutin, very 1800s. I would say, I'm not a communist, I'm more of a libertarian marxist in my thinking, or a libertarian socialist, even. From a purely issue-based point of view, I'm a Municipal Localist: not an insurrectionary, nor even a structural marxist [professing constructivist and structuralist cues to modernity and postmodernity that line up with Marxian theory or Marxist-Leninist]. I am a Non-Marxist. Marx pointed out in his work "Private Property And Communism" a means by which "woman" are fetishized as commodity form, in a reified manner. I would say this is true, but it's not because of why Marx said [what he alluded to was prescient though]. And this is really the crux of why I'm not a Marxist, even if I understand Marxian theory. I also understand Spengler and Evola's crisis of concern for the human race under the boot of "machine industry". Look at Kazcinsky: yet another "right-wing" theorist. I am prompting a concern of such things: nothing more. I am promoting nothing more than the idea that people want a: self-management and b: that people want to be productive for their social ends [races, groups, even at an individual level. But no less than these three categories persist at once]. My videos would be aiming to promote this, yes.

  5073. Axiom 1: History is to be viewed as an economic class struggle. Only in the sense of our drives leading us as being the viewer of History. In this sense, yes it is a class-struggle, because of economic burdens and exigencies. Beyond this there are drives which pertain to complexes that exhibit in other ways rather than reproductive, or even expressive, but this is not solely due to human nature, but also due to certain power dynamics that press on human productivity. Next axiom. PS: In keeping with hierarchical organization -- And synarchic organization, like tech-capital. Animal kingdom, structuralism -- Both do not preclude themselves, unless one admits that what is sole for the human being is nary for the animal creature. Predated human history itself, capitalism -- Certainly a good phrasing there, Peterson, whether you meant it or not: yes it has been predating human history for so long. True. It also can be refined...didn't you think that it could? Class struggle, no, deeper problem -- Cf. Axiom 1. Existential problem, taking from below -- The Commons, in Marx's words. Cruel and harsh natural world -- Cf. Reification. Give the devil his due -- Or in other words, class struggle, q.e.d. PPS: Crystal clear -- So was Marx, on that. Eschatological, Peterson...read Capital...it's not a proposal that to have revolution is a given only then: that was never presumed by Marx, hence Axiom 1: the reasoning is that because someone always struggles to the top, in order precisely to control and compartmentalize hierarchy below them [that's what Hierarch means], and that means that revolution is "natural" and hence predicated on the absorption of surplus value, thence Valorization, the concept of the remit to wages and/or slavery [or destitution] being a "moral value" for the good of "nature": and thence with out capitulation, the order of revolution in class struggle in toto. Exploitation, very unstable means of obtaining power -- It's a means of keeping power within synachic lines of affectation, and also, cf. Axiom 1. It's also a means of expanding and implicitly controlling power. And it's also a means of "creative destruction". It's a means of keeping an axiom of contingency and necessity, and reliance, which instability provides. Exploiter and exploitee, it's not obvious -- It's obvious, when in the framework of Axiom 1 [see above]. And the reasoning is because of the proverbial "class struggle". The binary does preclude a further mystery, but to nail it down to the proletariat and the bourgeoisie is cutting a little thin, though. That is to say, that it's multiple classes that form the structure base and superstructure. Unfortunately race, and nation, and creed, plays part and parcel as well. Group identity politics, proletariat good, bourgeoisie evil -- Inner warfare? Pitting people into groups -- Uhh...I thought nature did that itself? Aren't you backtracking a bit here? as in...alot? This goes to the further Marxian theory of Capital. Capitalists own means of production, oppressing all the workers -- No. Not "all the workers". Just the workers in Germany. He couldn't predict everything, and well, Marx never claimed he could predict things outside of this theoretic schemata, just that it would represent whyfors in a historicist fashion. Wage earners become scarce, which drives market value upward -- And where do these new earners get found? right. From the "globalized" world. Not a very good critique, here, from you, Peterson. It's a meager derivative of not keeping up to date with Marxian theory, nor reading Marx in his entirety, and thus you attribute this notion as being a misunderstood one by Marx, when in actuality it was merely understated because he did not predict how Capital would operate at all lengths...that would be impossible. But he does draw out a very dire premise and eschatology. Assume a priori -- Like so many powers that be, just do willy-nilly? like State? like Church? "The Cathedral"? like "a priori synthesis"? Like capitalism?

  5231. Jesus wasn't a "socialist" per se...he advised people to be free from such things...but you misunderstand me, I think (sorry for the confusion)-- I never said Jesus was a socialist, I said that his small congregation was THE WAY to do things, actually. =) I might have implied that Christianity is socialist (not Jesus though- I said he 'kept it small', which is a good thing- read on, and you'll see what I mean). And they have been, for ages. See: Distributism -- But my point is, in saying what I said, friend, is that Jesus kept it small...his congregation was SMALL. Older tribes used to either be culled by nomadic life, or by cultural exchanges between tribes (war, a la blue plate special)-- they were kept Small, most importantly. I happen to believe Socialism is a sort of natural human tendency to provide a stop-gap against "inequality" in larger populaces (ie, within a republic, or even empire- a small bit of "redistribution" in some fashion is always employed, even if it's "better rations", or "better accommodations", or whatever the matter..."whores"....whatever the case.) The only political tendency, I find, that could avoid that, was within feudal systems....nevertheless, all of our "societies'" (pure fictions, like laws) seem to transcend (negatively) into a socialist mindset, because as they grow, the function of the church or the state tends to want to appease them, to avoid a conflagration against them, by the people. Because of such proclivities towards "weaknesses" (one might say), bigger populaces tend towards appeasing THEMSELVES with socialism, and/or some kind of nationalism (the two can be twain), or patriotism, of some sort. The tendency towards socialism is found within pagan tribes, empires, the church, cities and states, alike....all because of "the people" and their proclivity towards the path of least resistance...and why do you think they are given it; of course, to appease them means to make them weaker...so of course they would appease them...we are coming to only realize this now- and I assure you, only more confusion is on the way.

  5469. I misspoke, but of course you will label it "something denied". If anyone looks, which is doubtful, but if so, they can see I simply had, in the midst of mentioning the suppression of Copernicus' theories along with the mentioning of the fact of many people who were always cut down whilst making said scientific process in the middle ages, and Copernicus was in-between ellipses with mention of Bruno, in the same breadth, as my mention of the others, including Bruno, being killed, you concluded that I meant that Copernicus had been killed, but I simply did not mean that, and so edited my post (openly, you prevaricator, you) so as to correct myself, and added "(OR SUPPRESSED)" in betwixt my admitted error in speaking (which was the main point you prevaricated away from)- that was before I knew someone was going to actually attempt to argue the point- which I suggest people look at, at the top of the page, it's a doozy, it's very funny seeing Christians exculpate themselves from any wrong-doing ever in History, while at the same time decrying everyone else in History, and claiming that they "invented civilization" (nothing more, not "western civilization", which is at least marginally more understandable a claim, that some individuals do make, but not more so- besides, Greek civility, and Roman civility, seems to've invented western civilization, and alot of the Bible was lifted from pagan lore). But it's funny to see you constantly refer to this mistake, simply rectified within moments of it's utterance- it's not really a good argument, considering things.

  5470. Liar. You didn't misspeak. You thought Copernicus was killed. You said so. This is your exact quote before your edit. Notice how you used the plural "they." Copernicus...Bruno...why were they killed for being RIGHT in their science? No, not "liar", and as I already explained, this was AFTER I had ALREADY AFOREMENTIONED (The AFOREMENTIONED SUPPRESSION, which any can see was the original topic) that "the sentence structure was broken into ellipses for a reason; the lack of motivation for me to write an essay on how you are wrong", and that "I was referring to those who were killed for their scientific endeavor." See: right before your quote of me: Muslims in Spain were doing great things, until they were sacked by crusaders. Then that scientific age of discovery was delayed, yet again...and how many times in History has this occurred? -- than I go on to state the sentence you attribute to me, and I edited it, and openly stated that I didn't mean he was killed, but that "they", the Muslims in Spain, and the likes of Bruno, were killed, and that Copernicus was suppressed, like the aforementioned Muslims in Spain. See what I did there? Now, please, I admitted I "Misspoke". You don't wont for the committal of the fallacy fallacy, and see that even though, while shitposting, I misspoke, now you've arrived at, what's it called, the Dragon Power, yes, that's it...can you ever prove a refutation of the facts presented herein this comment thread, or the one you've gotten that quote out of? That of the active suppression of (and banning of) books, works, knowledge, ect, and other various acts committed by the church to suppress and subdue? Well, I mean, again, cause you already have, anyone can plainly look at the strenuous display and see, well shit, i'll be, Cynicalbroadcast is right. shrug No skin off my teeth, anyway. You keep adulating yourself with the notion that you "see my words as error" (even after they've been correctly posited, and you still can't refute my statements of fact, but instead opt for ad homs about my poetry (lol) and make claims about how, and I quote, "pagans can do x y and z, but you want me to hang my head in shame", which is pitiful to say the least, because at least you could have relented and yielded from the argument, but instead insisted, and continue to insist, that you've made a point. You haven't. In fact, you've only been shewn refuted out-right, and quite abjectly, I might say. I have not spoken out of turn, once. You keep trying to insinuate that, though. =) Anyone can see for themselves. (You can't discern verisimilitude because you keep harkening back to a loosely worded statement, that you want to keep identifying as a "lie", even though it's been established to've been your misapprehension of me.)

  5477. It was the fact that he was dishonest to the American people about it and purjured himself that got him into trouble I already affirmed that, dork. The fact is, you keep insisting that that was still a good way to catch him lying...you wasn't tried. He was impeached but not charged with any crime, was he? nope...the answer is a swift "nope". So stop trying this game [all of you] of continuously reiterating your same exact tired platitudes about how "I am missing this perfect fact about the American spirit of the law" which you have not really evinced, considering that he wasn't charged with any seditious crime. He literally was just told to not be unbecoming, and once more, that his lies was noteworthy, that's not the point: the point is that whether he perjured himself or not, he only did so being confronted with "sex allegations". Imagine that...*sex allegations*...and look at the Me Too Movement now...what, you for that too? facepalm Had Bill told the truth from the get-go, there may still have been some people angry at him, but there never would've been an impeachment trial of any sort. And in all actuality there is far more corruption and shit attached to Bill and Hillary's name than just Bill's extramarital affairs. From Vince Foster all the way to Benghazi, there is so much scandal surrounding the Clintons that they really do perfectly exemplify the stereotype of the corrupt American politician always lusting for more and more power Ok, and? there is scandal in all of American history...name one president that didn't have scandal. I'll be waiting with your extraordinary exposition on the vague presidents where this general notion doesn't hold up: let me re-phrase: give me the piddling handful of presidents that didn't have major scandal, then explain how it's of import to this discussion: you enlighten me with your acumen.

  5478. No, you pay attention. You can tell me all you want [or he can tell me all he wants] about his legal argument, and how "it doesn't matter how one perjures himself", cause that is BESIDES THE POINT. I am not arguing that it matters: of course, legally, it doesn't matter, but you're butthurt about his perjury [thru your prying into his private life, thru Me Too allegations (or what amounts to that, at that time), making you a hypocrite, because certainly you are anti "believe the victim, believe the woman" mentality (or no? tell me I'm wrong about that)...]. Ok, I get that, that you're butthurt that he committed perjury. But the point stands: he was only impeached and not charged with any criminal penalty to his person, and didn't even step down as president, because there was nothing really that was a cause for the courts to proceed to jail him, as his perjury wasn't systematic, in a sense it was trifling. You only make it so big a concern because in retroactive condition you wish to belie more of the point of what we're seeing come to light now about inner-governmental operations: I understand that, you carbuncle of mass proportion: but I am still calling you out: a hypocrite: because with the perjury and then subsequent acquittal [he wasn't charged with a crime, but only impeached...why do presidents commit crimes, sometimes...ask yourself you silly silly person...just peruse your mind as to why they might do that...good God...], you can plainly see, his slight "crime" [being unwilling to admit to having an affair] was, quite literally, extramarital. You ONLY CARE BECAUSE HE IS A DEMOCRAT. Plain and simple. You are a party militant. Which makes you practically frothing over this: but here is the fact, the froth comes from the fact that he's a Democrat, he did things that if a Republican did you would either not care at this point [seeing as the dialogue nowadays is not about Jesus Jesus Jesus but about MAGA, which induces the sense of patriotic liberty, the American pride for justice THRU FREEDOM [the Freemason idea, of olde, because they became "progressive"], nor would you care if Trump is found guilty of perjury, and yet, nothing occurs and is acquitted [fingers crossed]. The fact is you just look like a hypocrite all the way, if you would endorse this view that Bill Clinton by way of his sordid affair was so criminal as to belay the notion of your hypercritical stance against "Demonrats" in the realm of pure hyperbole, irrational skepticism ["is water wet?"], and simple REFUSAL to take responsibility for the DENIGRATION of the Republican and Democratic ideals of an American Representative Democracy: and what's worse is what is to come if you all don't start realizing what is at stake, what is going to happen: it's worse than even the most prescient conceptions of war-faring: it is the overtaking of the rural by domination of the metropolis, the neoliberal attrition thru immigration, "safety", and capitalist mechanisms of international CEOs and shareholders of major banking firms and families [essays can be written on these factors, and how they culminate to the simple truth of Marx's predictions (but not his overall theory), which is attested to be Spengler [on the right] and Evola [independent political thought], and not just "the left" [which has evolved, no longer a clash between anarchists and "crude communists", but is now a "post-left", which can only be understood as a developing trend towards Mutualisms of different sorts, Localisms, ect. Sto-gap procedures for socialism and it's incursion: alot of which stems from the socialization of society itself, and it's paradigmatic tendencies towards orientation and direction from the State apparatus: we know these things now: but you people really have got to step up your retention and learn your conspirology [look it up] and history. Stop coming at me with this basic stuff.

  5546. Any Rand predicted Something long predicted by the original accelerationist, Marx. Class struggle is tantamount with "bio-power"; just differentiated by the aspect of a back of "biology", in Marxism, which is probably to it's fault, seeing as it's totally structural and yet also eschatological, and sociological, as well, and logical, and ultrarational (which is way it makes for such virtual-fodder, and complicates things as much as it set the tone for not only totalitarianism in it's abstract, with the absolutising fascists, and national socialist Germany, in it's reflection), and also gave way to some actually 'decent' social institutions like the "minimum wage" and eventually the "pension fund" [securities bonds, which is a hijack]. You should realise as an occulturalist, Styx, that Ayn Rand predicted something any anthropologist worth his salt could have predicted, and/or any historian worth his salt. Ayn Rand is of a certain "tradition" but this "tradition" had read Marx and had to read Marx [as did everyone else at that point in history]. Hayek, remember, an admiring savant, mind you, helped to fund the juntas in Chile via the Mont Pelerin Society. Recall what happened then...and how the homogeneous [for all intents and purposes] Chile went from pure anarcho-capitalist funded idealism, at-bottom, to a socialism, and most successful one...begs the question, why is it one of the sum few states successfully "socialised"? because it's social ends that needs be met, not social needs of any other sort, not social causes, and not social patterns, necessarily, but social ends — outside "self-reliant" organisation — that is unless one wishes to see the other end of rocking "spirit" thru the wake of history — unless of course one wants to see the rise of corporatism. In the end, it is a choice between state-management, and state-worship [after the nation worship], or a self-management and a racial [or civic national, for America] deviation, at least for the mean time, and then, orient to socialism: that's the best anyone can hope to achieve.

  5630.  @KazuyaMithra  Communism doesn't fix anything unless it's global. That is why Communism is really a moral system to stay within a a "social" paradigm [to put it simply]. Social, meaning, national [ie. national bolshevik, "populist unionism", which came out of the Narodniks (that is, the populists in Russia: Russians are weird sometimes); China, cultural revolution were by nationalist Chinese, against imperialist Chinese, etc.]. Trust me, the imperial thing rings true. Even the concept of fetishization rang true IN the COLONIAL PERIOD [and only then, because since America & Europe has switched gears from that, they've been instilled with a liberal attitude, have they not, about "former colonial nations"...?]. Now, Marxist theory that doesn't at the notion of "recognition" within the field of studying reification [so, no, no "biopower" and intersectionalism: that is all "form" and no substance, if injected with some substance it can explain peoples behavior, though]. And Marx didn't predict Russia, or China, as they were peasant countries: he figured the bourgeoisie would piss people off enough that class consciousness would kick in [which it kinda already was, see Proudhon: but Marx came up with the historical materialist dialectic (mirrored fancifully in, say, books like "Guns, Germs, & Steel", only in a more anthropological than historical register)...this dialectic was what Marx said was "standing Hegel on his head": now, I think there is alot of prescience to the concept altogether, the supervenience of the superstructure and base...as a poststructuralist [in terms of linguistics, as such, and signs], this makes alot of sense. But as a Traditionalist, and constructionist, I can see where people fault it. It's outmoded. It's not actually as "wrong" as people make it out to be. Even Engels' marxian anthropology is panning out, in the study of ethnic cultures which evolved ages ago, by the by. It is extremely prescient, but it doesn't cover everything, it doesn't out-do Hegelian modes of thought (which there is a left-, and a right-wing, mode of Hegelian thought that follows Hegel), it doesn't out-do Kant, though might just match him, so to speak. And when it comes to right-wing thought, even contemporary, it all comports to Marxian theory [classical, not necessarily it's incarnate forms afterwords, or "orthodox marxism"]. "Thingification" was the talk of people in crisis of the modern world [Marxian term], peoples being 'overcome by machines', Heidegger, Evola, Kaczynski, et al., at all ends, it's been in line with the same mode of crisis interpreted by the aforementioned people, and guess what...it doesn't stop there. Accelerationism is not something tended to know about before recently [nor comprehend the philosophical or critical implications of], and it got took from the world of academia, to the world of the internet, then to the world of madmen, real politicks, and NOT someone who would be connected to the academic side, clearly! as it would be people who would be considered "leftist"...but alas, point being, we're all talking about the same thing here. No one is "100% right". Marx wasn't right about everything, as I already have clearly indicated.

  5823. Example: Adorno - instead of attempting to foster respect for black music, instead disdained it- Critical Theory has a hate-boner for capitalism, sure- indeed- but to conflate them with "Cultural Marxists" is still wrong- they have Marxist views established, but they a: disdain postmodernism [ which mars the whole thesis of the OP] and b: as Marxists they do not consider cultural a "good thing" hence Cultural Marxism isn't espoused by them- they consider it, like most things, an 'excess spillover of capitalism' [would be a brief and pithy exposition of their views]. Cultural Marxism is espoused more by Eurocommunists, which obviously still hold Marxist views. Alot of right-wingers hold Marxist views- only ones that are not totally ensconced on an Objectivist point of view- see National Bolshevism and other brands of Nationalist-Anarchic, et al, movements whom may not ascribe to the total notion of a marxist/communist mode of production or governance, per se, but nevertheless prescribe an accelerationist methodology. And those who aren't prone to accelerate one way (Marxism) are certainly apt to the other way (Dues Vult, Reactionaries, ect) -- any sitting on any fences simply resolves into a socialist/fascist type dictatorship (so it seems-- whether a Third Position or no), and resolves to emancipate land and resources from nations around them, or, they are considered Social Democrats and Centrists. LOL, sorry but some really undefinable [within the context OP provided] subtext about "right-wing bad" is not found in that book. The book is clear some exposition (reactionary as well, after Hitler) to define why Ethnocentrism occurs, in EUROPE, of all place, the most densely packed fuckfest of a study in chaos theory, since, O, just the Dawn of Man. LOL -- you people are, sometimes, too much.

  5871.  @terminsane  You people all say that and I find it contentious, at best. First of all, to note: if we look at what comes FIRST in anything, it is a social end [in my opinion], not an action, because the act of thinking precedes the act of doing, and there is a middle ground where between the thinking and doing there is a reification of social ends, which befits the inclination [the incentive] and drive to goal-oriented action; otherwise, action comes from nowhere, and that is absurd to posit that actions come from nowhere, when we know they come first and foremost from thought, and that which internally drives us to do things, to desire, and also drives us to hunger. Secondly, as a matter of philosophical weight: If capitalism is at-bottom the foremost foundation for mankind, then sociality is there as well, in the comportment of capitalism, and as a town dweller, truly, he is first to come last and from the last to come first, seeing as the social animal is the individual, whereas the capitalist animal is at odds with total self-sustenance, as he needs a market place for his ideal to be actual. A virtual "capitalism" might exist for someone who says they "capitalize" on grabbing fruit from a tree, but we both know that that is just word-play, and not really the actual form of the concept Capitalism. This kind of thing, Capitalism, is a collective act [in other words, it is global]. If this IS the case: then there is no individualist capitalism that isn't completely self-reliant, hence, no disjunction from point a to point b, et al, in terms of this self-reliance, and there is no turning point from this self-reliance even when it's group-oriented: a non-self-reliant capitalism is not "purely" individualist: an interdependent capitalism is social: collective capitalist action is global.

  5966.    They don't have "socialized" anything. They have WELFARE That's what morons like colloquially call "socialism" when it's you that have to pay for it. Too bad that that's the way the economy works in the US, since you guys broke off from the welfare of the establishment of your past. Enjoy that no "welfare" for yourselves, considering you'll fight the process of achieving such a system in the US tooth and nail, moron. =D Bismarcks name for social programs not run by the church. Having a well functioning capitalist economy with many small businesses does help stacking up the gold needed to pay for welfare Oh how naive. A functional capitalist system that stays in country...like European countries di- oh wait, they didn't. A functional market where stuff is affordable also helps paying for it And as the system, globalised, puts money into smaller and smaller sets of hands, it's called "socialism" by you morons, when really, it's just capitalism, in action. Factions of corporate sponsors, and consolidation, nothing more. But you're a moron. I wouldn't expect you to understand this concept. Yes I know a lot about communism. I used to call myself one. Until I became serious enough to read the litteraturen. Globalism is a core part of communism and has nothing at all to do with capitalism. Capitalists and conservatives HATE globalism Yes, and leftist hate tankies, too, but that doesn't solve the problem of capitalism being a first globalised, then later, global-IST affair, between all nations, and lo and behold the "communist" states [not Marxian states, but Engelsian states] falter, and socialists in South America, falter, to capitalist endeavor, you wonder how and why things centralise the way they do [by faltering systems? think about it, moron]. Think about leftist nationalism [Chinese-style socialism, Soviet Union...Chile funded by the Mont Pelerin society, a libertarian/liberalist think-tank group]. Social democracy is based on Bismarck's conservatism And in come the nationalist savants to save the day from social anything! And National socialism is social democracy mixed with socialism Social things are gross, let's focus on open capitalism instead. The national socialists pretty much copied the Swedish social democrats which Hitler deemed superior to other branches of social democracy. He were specially impressed by the Swedish Racial Biological Institute and their program to sterilize people that were not considered well adjusted Ahh, time for the obsequious requests to sterilize the "non-well adjusted". Maybe we should do that for the alt-right, too. Although Hitler adding socialism to the mix obviously broke the German economy in a few years. There were no one left that could produce tax revenue and the entire system collapsed He also wanted to "stop ze Jews", and capitalism. And capitalism is "pro-social democracy" you say, huh? Go tell that to Styxhexenhammer. lol

  6135. I've been in socialism Great, so...wonderful...you were in socialism in some backwards country with some backwards "values" instilled in a probably, if at best, uuhh some holdover aristocratic powers and some leaders after certain uprisings [which proceeded said leaders, which sprang up later] which were rural and backwards, to be frank. That is to say, 'holdovers', they were holdovers. And we have a society that is growing...more guns isn't going to help, it's not a concern. It's the fact of rising political tensions that should be a concern because a: "conservatives" are confused about the nature of capitalism [they are literally spelling out their own doom, the doom of their "culture", but then blame "the left" for "globalism" and "communism" for "globalism" too, even though were the Soviets "globalists"? no. Capitalists are though], and b: because of the fact of the growing civil society, technologies, and integration of business and consumer well-being in the service-capital postindustrial world, they confused tech-capital for "leftists", when they don't comprehend they are capitalists and nothing more. They must want social-ism to have social means to have social ends met within a social relationship between action and reaction, to stop the "deep state", and yet because of their strict adherence to idiocy they simply hand over more of their culture to the wealth of the "elite" and as "illegal immigration" is stomped down on, hardly a dent is made in lieu of the concerns of the "right"-wing: so they will simply be swayed into further fascism: this is how the "ethnic" peoples' of American descent operate. With complete confusion for what a "social" regard is, in context with their livelihoods and with their ideals, and what is "capital" to THEM...at-bottom, where they want the "cronies" of capitalism to "cut them some slack". They won't. You know it. I know it. They will never know it. They are a lost cause.

This new Youtube comments are crap, they deleted the first time I responded to this, so, when I called you an * [apparently] I was honestly responding to your comment, as if it were literally not reading me, which apparently it wasn't, because it was deleted [and I didn't even say anything naughty, I just explained what I had above, already, and had to re-iterate that second time- you're not an * though, I take that back. Other people though, they've been assess pretty much no matter how "cordial" I am]. Boy, these comments are now vastly more like twitter; no matter-Yes, I see your point about the nature of the impeachment that you don't like, elucidated in your comments about "serving the rule of the people" [essentially I'm paraphrasing], over "party politics" and making this impeachment under some kind of politicized and/or personal grounds. My point is also in lieu with Styx's messaging in this video, which he clearly states that "by design, the impeachment is partisan in nature, due to the fact of how the governmental procedure works, in general", as in to say that "this is not going to work any other way, anyway, and it's always partisan"--this is true. Then the rest of his messaging omits what I am elucidating about the fact of his embargo on sense and real "reasoning" due to his fetishization of the "globalized" [or just "global"] market and his distinct refusal to ground any of his videos in a logic that would elucidate anything beyond this axiomatic "reasoning", of his, whereby he follows the crowd, basically, most of the populist base: which he is clearly not telling everything to. But that's neither here nor there about the "litmus test" comment, that's just merely a poor wording, like you said. But it points out the connection to the political base that Styx is trying to sublimate or manipulate, and the accrual of monetary gain for he knows there is no other alternative: the next time it'll be more "reasoning" from this, and the time after, a more "populist" candidate comes along, and he'll be there for the ride too. I don't blame him. Look at everyone, they eat this shit up; probably cause they are so fed up: yet they always manage to forget that all these parties have been screwing them, not just one...but it works, see? Most are as bad as the socialists [the so called "anti-corporatist lobby who at once are slaves to corporatists, and capitalists, too, which they say they hate but seemingly don't], because you are still saying one thing and doing another, so, a "new American future" is what anyone can and must surely expect [and that can be either good or fucked, depends]. One under corporatists. This is all one or another band-aid on a gaping wound. That's the sad part. This virus going around is probably the worst timing.

  6673. "The dark ages" usually refer to the small ice age in europe during which there is very little written information available. There is no indication that some large scale "suppression and/or excoration of knowledge" took place during that time. In terms of intellectual development, it seemed to progress at the same rate as the immediate pre and post dark ages. Indeed. You didn't need to explain that, you realize that many people understand this basic fact, and that it's right in the label "dark ages". You know what was suppressed? I'll tell you. Copernicus's heliocentric theory was suppressed and supplanted by geocentric "hogwash" (see: Bullshit) because people had 'theological concerns' (ibid), and yes, his books were banned, this is well attested to. Everything I said was true. I never said that the "dark ages" were as "dark" as you may have thought I had let on. You must know t 's a colloquialism, and like, it's like not needed to be reiterated so often that, yes, the label is like harsh buzz, bro; but still...these things, even in their 'moderate happenstance' DID happen -- so did lots of killings and stuff over other bullshit- other "suppressing" of, well, frankly, other religions doing all the same thing. So....yeah. =\ PS: You might notice my phrasing was a play-on-words parsing what Tonixxy was saying...if all of the above examples did what they did, and he did comparing "those dark ages" with the one in reference by Styx, then i am was just exemplifying to him why it's called "dark ages". It's just a label...you could also say it was just "hard to read"...but that's especially so cause things were banned, and such. You know how many times people say "it was not even dark" completely trying to foist the notion that there was "no darkness" with this red herring of "not as violent as you think" (apologea), whilst trying to forgo the obvious nuance? Darkness obviously implies, like you said, the lack of recorded knowledge...but then again, it's even more than that you know, as I already explained, but you see why the term exists...some people seem to wanna act like they don't. And here is reason enough, but still- once more, we do have two ways of looking at things here....on the broad stroke, it's just a lack of information...on the small-scale, you have the Copernicus book ban, and Galileo affair.

  6965. Classical liberalism is the-- the way- but look- anyone can see how to EXTRAPOLATE FROM all these other things- look- if times are..."rough"...for someone...'anarchist ideals' might not be so bad for them- but what do I mean by that? NOT INSURRECTION [it's stupid, in almost all cases presented at the current time; no rationale for it that isn't detrimental- this isn't the 1900s and even then it was an abuse] -- no, not revolution either- Capitalism can be "CRITIQUED" but only because it should be INVESTIGATED and made better. In this way, some things can be extricated (thus "superficially" in a sense, because this isn't an attempt to replace systems, but just take what works from other systems that CAN BE [if and only if] reconciled in the system which indeed provides the most abundance- which is Capitalism. If someone fell on hard times, or an entire city (see: Detroit, which is starting to get back on it's feet, I hear, if only slightly), then "sharing" and certain "affinity groups" [anarchist-talk for special interests] can be a fine and dandy thing- as long as it's in a libertarian bent, I would see no problem with people "working together" outside of the normative system to make their lives better, as long as it's to no detriment to anyone else, outside of competition. Because competition works, it should be allowed, even then. But still, simple ideas that anarchists seem to thrive on are mostly only applicable in the interregnum between systems- if one system or another were to collapse. Really, that's what it is. It's nothing to suitably "replace" anything.

  6972.  @johnadams2833  Democratic Party aren't Marxist, co- I mean..."DUDE". [You are delusional, though...want a safe space?] And you "people" [no I mean, really, people- not plain 'idiots', or nothing like that...save the fact that you seriously are] think, at this point, that literally everything is left of "conservatism" which you can't even comprehend in itself. Either that, or you aren't really "American" anymore, not in the ethos of the last hmmm century. All you care about is a: money, and b: the projection of the growing Megalomania of growing metropolises into small nationalisms [and I do mean "projection"], as the demos projects the bourgeoisie "nobility" of the nation-state thru the city-states growth], onto the surrounding rural areas, which those townsfolk will probably accept: then you want to "seed out" the left, which if any group did such a "weeding out" of elements, whether if the left [say, ANTIFA] did this to right-wingers, or if the right-wing [or the "right-wing" (capitalists)] did this to "the left", this would be fascism; cause America is left or at least it always was: and in today's parlance it's simply "moved from center left to the right", simply put...it's roots are in Classical Liberalism (that's a fact), and colonialism (liberal-democracy of the growing social contracts, the growing bourgeoisie class, burgeoning the projection of the demos or the "nation-state" onto the surrounding territories [similar to how irredentism works in regards to race and territory, or "blood and soil", cf. Germany, cf. Ukraine/Russia]). The roots as such lead to the irremediable historical fact that AMERICA IS LEFT...but we are using ambiguous terms...the real terms should be about whether America has the national-faith to retain it's national heritage as a "liberal" and "free" country...or its fascisization [even if it's linker-fachismus or in other words, a leftist-fascism to combat right-wing fascism]...or some other kind of small nationalism or autonomy [cf. the riots], and possibly civil war and separatism. People say "the government won't allow this", and that's true...but either...America's hopes and values are on the line, that is, as it once was....That's America's place in time...on the brink...maybe it always was, but I don't think so...something brought it to this point but it wasn't the left. The "left" as it were, when it comes to the "center" or "center left" or what you simply call [in your simplistic means] just "the leftists" [even though that indication might apply more to movements farther left than "liberals", but that doesn't matter to you, right? right.], they just helped burgeon your economy...it is burgeoning, and it usually always is, but for the slowing down of this eventual process of what is to inevitably slow-down [oops], but for the time being, it's modernising at such a fast pace people couldn't even keep up [postmodernity], and as it were, things struck a "balance" [war is more like it, but with the fall of reason there is a tendency to blend with the older initiations of our past time immemorial as humans], but now this war is "cultural", so you call everything "left".
    1
  6973. ​ @johnadams2833  It's plain as day, however, that that what which you call "left" is a conflation, just like how that which the likes of the farther left elements of the left [ANTIFA] conflate Trump supporters ad hoc for "fascists", thereby, by microfascistic tendency, proving themselves fascistic in-themselves, and hetero-fascistic, at that; as opposed to auto-fascistic, of what would amount to the "right-wing" / capitalist / even an-cap, possibly...but this tendency seen in ANTIFA is strictly "linker fachismus" or "leftist-fascism"...the EU supranational union might be an example of this, too, to retain capitalistic endeavor within the containment of a demos and thus, potential for the eugenic-progressive dimension to come into play: same within China, and Russia, which are developing along their own lines, the former refusing democratisation but developing an econo-imperial inquest for the resources of surrounding nations, by force, in Asian nations, and by "economic guise" in Africa: latter becoming a quasi-monarchy with Putin at the helm in their latest parliamentary government. It's all very Faustian. And so what's next, well, what happens is that the sociality at-bottom is the core of the ethnic structure, or "the koineme", which is split along a world axis [thanks Holy Roman Empire] into a constellation of koinemes, which have forms so many polyethnic in-groups [thru phratries and intermarriage] that the despotic rigor of old tribes are retained in the ethnos which is always pretty much the living dead in terms of their work schedule...if they aren't already in dire straits...and hence you have the appeal of communism in it's most crude form, by the by,...but that's not Marx, Marx is anti-crude communism, certainly, but you'd have to know that, like I know it, cause I've read it...moving on...so these groups..which they now are merely referred to as "groups" and there are more "new groups" more than ever...are in a rather polyvalent manner...to such a multiplicity of degree that it scatters, by some point in what we call "history" the narods appear thru various means [this is the traditional societies and states and civilisations], and with that, the narods [not the "Narodnicks" in Russian History, that's just a populist movement], they, in multiplay of civilisationary and stationary forces, thru militarisation and economisations, enact several aristocratic city-states and nation-states in succession soon amassing empire over the Holy Roman Empire but not until several steps took place, like the Hohenstaufen and the relinquishing of the divine right of kings, et al., feudal/medieval history transitions into "classical" history,...and "civil society", the origins of "liberalism". Enter stage player America. Scene. The narod doesn't exist in the New World but as a facsimile of themselves, as a split narod from the Conservative British Monarchy and ethnos in the long-term, as Anglo-Saxons...And a mix of French and Dutch arrivals as well, all of you slowly incorporate into a giant federal government of municipalities [corporations].

  6974.  @johnadams2833  The economy is your driving force now, in America, and the old world. Enter stage Marx. Scene. Gentile contracts himself to do a deed. He flips Marx like he did Hegel dirty to his phenomenal dialectic, out of Kant's noumenal dialectic (the a priori synthesis), with the concrete dialectic (placing the 'I' of the self-hood not in the State or Spirit, or Race a la Hitler, but no, in the 'concrete realisation of resource management and production for the HEALTH and SENSE of the worker to be a man in the midst of labor, and to reap the exact reward of said labor by associated necessary labor time and it's value as per arranged proceeding and the endeavor of the realisation of itself'. Giovanni Gentile took it a step further and placed the dialectical process in the "I" itself, as "mind". The "pure act" succeeds the "reification" of necessity [resources], tripping the perfection of the survivability and affordability of Marxian thesis into a state-worship cult of mass proportions, now en-cell'd in every orifice of any Europeanised land: all as Europe follows an Americanising popularisation, just the same, there are leftists, actual lefts, not just "the left" (ie., liberals, anarchists, Marxists, democratic socialists, anyone who's read these articles into their worldview, even. Where, in reality, everyone has read Marx...everyone has to, back in the day, to even reply to it, which they did...but alas, the point is is that "the left" as you posit it, with all those ideologies, is simply not the conceptual structure of "the far-left", and far be it by me to be ill-concerned for people who simply "think different" ["the left"] than you [in your hard nationalistic myopia], and let them be mingled in and confused with the actual "far-left" which is really just the actual left, and whom don't abide by the values of liberalism, because liberalism is strictly an issue of privatisation, which whether it be by the bourgeoisie [neoliberals, and neoconservatives], by some "race guru" [Hitler], or by some "state-worship" and incorporation of massive dispositive force for state-regulation of the public-body [Fascism, in theory: that is, as opposed to it's praxis and the axiomitising of it's evinced fixations and exigencies to achieve the mission pertaining to those fixations, usually purely symbolic (which brings me to my main point, see below), which for the most part, in the literature, is espoused by liberals against fascist conception, see Benedetto Croce, for one prime example]...Now we have the concept coming out of the alt-right of "liberal fascism", and this is because, clearly, "fascism" is a particular sort of "third position", as it were, and to apply the terminology here would be exacerbating and convoluted, but nevertheless it happens...it turns out that with this "liberal fascism" we get a backlash again of the entirety of the bourgeoisie, in a totally American fashion, consistent with it's historical appearance (seeing as nothing appears as such in Europe: hence, why for the most part Western Europe socialises, in a western fashion, save England which entails it's own monarchical values, pertaining to one of the longest lasting empires of history...for Italy and it's surrounding neighbors, see "distributism" of Catholic origin...as like in China how Confucianism still persists in the ethnic and social mores and background of the culture and even the "upper classes", the aristocracy in those regions of Europe still attain to a high degree of power...you can see this oligarchic strain throughout Europe, Russia, and into Israel and the rest of the middle east, Bahrain, etc). This "liberal backlash" is in a tendency all it's own. It's pretty much most things the alt-right says it is. But that is not the "left". It is just an American tradition, if you can deign to call it "tradition" even in the soft denotation of a "law" or "custom". America is fighting itself in more ways than one. And so is the right-wing and "right-wing [capitalists] in Europe.

  7028. Muta, you don't know, but know you know, I mean like if you read this, that I know your pain. I actually used to get this alot. Ever had an OBE? I have...everything that is said about is true...a silver "cord" [like pins and needles], can go thru walls [sliding door, in my case], and it's really hard to not want to go back to your body [which you can still feel, so it's like you are in two places at once with this weird mental "pins and needles" like connection, and...you know the pins and needles effect...]. I had a dream once that preluded me going thru something that was elusive to me, but it happened once before...it's a whole thing...I had woken up and I kept...waking up...ever get that? a "false awakening". I would wake up again, and I kept...getting angrier...I eventually started yelling and tossing shit around [heh, literally, my broom behind the cabinets in my kitchen], I was trying to wake up my dad, and then so, I made alot of noise, end of story? no...no one woke up, but I was still mad, so this dream...this thing...stabbed me in the eye...in the left eye, my eye went blank, well...purplish-blank, and it hurt like a motherfucker...I yelled, you know, clutched my eye, and was able to wake up then...finally, I finally woke up, and I could tell this time...but damn...so the next time this happen it was precluded by this dream of a a far away distant thing coming to get me, and it did, cause in a preceding dream it came,...I have a long history of dreams with messages...epic dreams,...lots of video games [it's like my brain was so used to playing vidya at one point my dream-reality just bled into videogame-mode, it still does, sometimes, but not as often...]. So this time...I actually had to find my way around these false awakenings...for nearly THREE MONTHS...I was AFRAID of sleeping...so I know the feeling...the only time I could sleep was when I could grab a little Red & Green Mix, so I could get 'fine' in my biometrics...apparently...But it would come back, I'd have crazy dreams, where I'd literally come to some point where I recover my memory somehow [oh Lethe] and I'd be like, 'wait, this is just the thing again', and like a spotlight would shine on some part of my perception [almost like something was hiding in plain sight, some kind of EYE]...everytime , every night, I'd get a little more weirded out by this nightly event, so I'd basically be desperate not to fall asleep without having some kind of drug to help me sleep...turns out, eventually, I'd come to face my demon, and I did...I lept out into the abyss and...I realized something...the pills...I was still taking the pills...I wanted...I wanted to feel something...I wanted to feel normal...but inside....Inside.....

  7049. Abstract labor Surplus labor value? Valorization? So this you agree with. And by the way, sometimes utile elements are used against people, wrongfully, hence, why it's always useful to ask what is utility precisely? Growth -- Admittedly, Marx admits, in his more arrogating statements, that Capital was fitting to "get us here", where the means to production could be, essentially, "salvaged"- if you will- not to put too fine a point on it, I'm obviously paraphrasing. Obviously any sort of "revolution" is violent. I don't approve of insurrectionism, but this was also a contested issue in communist and anarchist thought, to an extent, it's even found in capitalist thought, now, thankfully. Isn't that grand? [*And nte. none of this is that "strange" either.] Constraint on wasted labor -- And what occurs? more attempts at world-federalization, from all angles, more expansionism, protectionism, attempts towards autarky, history "repeats itself", people want recognition [read the latest in circles on 'Reification']. Way too complicated for anyone to think thru -- Not only is that a cop out, but...manifestly ascribed to by Marx as the necessity to learn, as a proletariat, to educate yourself, because the lumpenprole would not be able to do that, due to being...essentially...lazy. That too might also be a cop-out, ironically. Alienated, from -- Not "from" but "an alienation". This isn't going away, just because the "utopia" vision is "wrong" [plus, the notion is facetious, it's not even taken seriously by communists that a "utopia" arrives from this, just a blatant misconception; also that centralized power wouldn't immediately be co-opted by the dictates of the proletariat [which is what that means, literally; eg., the "dictatorship of the proletariat"], which would then would, presumably, start all over again in their material exploits until new class struggles arose.

  7194. Funny how you talk about "tall speaches" that's all you have really. You never seem to have a point, and you obviously can't read I am asking you to continue, and that's funny? I don't see how. So you aren't going to give me a tall-order argument that shatters my own and is insuperable? I eagerly await your spectacular attempt. I said "I don't think that you are as smart as you think you are." And you said that I said you were not smart. Obviously your fragile feelings were hurt because you seem to have lost your grip on what the conversation was about I don't think so...get to the point. But to your off topic question about religion, neither Catholicism nor protestantism are correct. Both are money making entities and have corrupted christianity in order to keep parishioners and make money Correct. And that'll keep happening. So you still haven't evinced how I was wrong...I'm still waiting. As to your nonsense about people "not caring that taxes will go up as long as they think the money is going where they want it to" (yes paraphrasing) you must not know any poor Democrats, because they think that only rich people will be taxed, and those people have enough money to pay for all their "free" stuff No, they think that everyone will be taxed, and they don't give a shit. The ones who don't understand that are the sum few who are so abject that they are akin to the rural voter who simply thinks "if I vote republican they'll help me out, over here", which is not really the case. Trump was a good fit, but he's not pulling hard enough to really get anyone out of the spot they [as spread out across several states] are in. But that's neither here nor there; idiots will exist on both sides of the political aisle, and one doesn't care about taxes because they are comfortable in their metropolitan upbringing [or they are just parrots peddling for someone else], while the other doesn't care that they are constantly being hoodwinked by corporations at the benefit of a few. Trump is highlighting things that people simply aren't even willing to address, in full. Jobs are still going overseas, and this is a conflation of the two sides of the aisle into one conglomeration of an ideal: economic security. But what is also highlighted is the notion of "what's fair". Well, it's well known, and insuperably fact, that the US has led theaters of operations well out of their purview for a "fair" conception of what nations are "at liberty to do"; which has tended to have some good results for the world-at-large, but has led to the instance [like in England] of a substantial flow of immigration, hasn't it? yes, it has. Thatcherism or no, Trumpism, or no, they keep coming, and people, heads of agriculture, construction companies, etc., continue to hire illegal immigrants, at the behest of the shareholders of these groups gaining a greater profit. Your arrogance and obvious youth, combined with your perception that all Democrats are college educated, give you away there shakes head No, I never said anything about them "being collage educated", you are just pulling random things out of your ass, at this point. I don't approve of the Democrats, they are slimy; that's another thing, you keep insinuating I value the Democrats...I don't. You suffer from typical college educated ignorance, you don't listen to people who know, you just believe your ideology that you've been indoctrinated with since you were a little kid LOL, no. I quit school a long time ago. My kids are all college educated but they were taught at a young age to think critically and question everything they were told. That's why they are conservative, because it is a way of thinking that works You are making a lot of presumptions but this one is the greatest one. "That's how thinking works". You have the skinny on how thinking works? please, send your genius kids to the neurosciences department at the Mayo Clinic. Stat. You see, I'm being glib, because you almost don't deserve a response...I'm glad for your kids, but you are assuming everyone else has dumb kids who are just indoctrinated [derr] when that's sorta like saying that you know how everyone raises their kids, and that that is not indoctrination, when it clearly is a form of indoctrination ["let me tell you, what they'll teach you at school is tainted because they lie, and they are wrong, they don't know or don't want to know how thinking works but I'll tell you like my daddy told me...." - an example of indoctrination], and you clearly don't know how other parents taught their kids. You also presume that literally entire blocks of political struggle are just teaching their kids that "everything is free, go wild", when at once sending them to school to learn, to get a degree, to earn a living, because...OBVIOUSLY NOTHING IS FREE. You're just making this line up because you are being a parrot. I studied history for more than 40 years, so my kids were privy to economic and government systems that work and those that do not. It's no coincidence that as civics, history, and economics have been removed from the education system, more people have turned toward the Democrats and socialism Yes, as both the left-wing and right-wing in government continue to flood immigrants into your workforce, the notions of civics turns into social studies—and that of history and economics hasn't went away, and you're making that line up. But I digress—did you learn about Christian socialism? Charles Fourier? Hmm? Catholic distributism? I'm sure the Protestant work ethic ingrained in American society is so glorious as to be found in such a state that, now, money is worth more than the culture who aches for release....Fun times thanks to these people. Oh but...you don't really like to talk about that history, huh? just the contemporary history of the fin de siècle era, when socialists were given a push by soviet communism, and the social democrats in Germany fought the communists, and the Freikorps? want to get into when the capitalists bought off anarchists in the mining days, for insurance claims on their effectively blown-up mines? Do you want to get into any history that isn't biased in one perception favoring another? People who think for themselves tend to do for themselves, instead of relying on government to do for them The history of both the left-wing and the right-wing in America shews otherwise.

  7195. You are wrong because you said I couldn't answer that question, which I did, so now you're pulling the customary left wing bs of not acknowledging when you were wrong No. You're still wrong, even right here. I asked you if you could tell me who was more correct. You amiably said "neither are correct", which was the correct answer. I didn't say you couldn't give the right answer. And then I said that you wouldn't be able to prove my point wrong: that you couldn't tell me who is more right in their assessment of what money should be spent on and [what it] should not be spent on — which is true, you haven't. That speaks to your integrity You're reaching. As for the rest of your nonsense, I discovered long ago that people like you, whose ideology is like a religion, and you can't accept either the fallacy of that ideology, nor accept when you're wrong, it is pointless to attempt to converse with people like that The ironic thing is you don't know what my ideology is, you're just assuming what it is, because that's what you parrots do. "You're a Dem, a communist, a leftist...", uhhh no...I'm not any of those things. Can you address what I'm saying, and confute it as 'wrong', or not? So in conclusion, civics, history and economics should be taught in school in a non biased way so that people can make informed decisions about voting. You have provided no counter argument to that which can stand up to scrutiny I didn't even disagree with those notions, nor did I even postulate any argument regarding them. You just invented this line that you and I have shared discourse on the subject by way of me bringing it up—at least that's what you are insinuating—but you brought it up, first...I didn't. I never even mentioned that "civics is x in schools"—all I mentioned was that the "reasoning" that "if you teach civics in school, Democrats would never get elected" is a foolish indication of the lack of reasoning; clearly [because civics were taught in schools in the past...when Democrats were indeed elected], and indicatively by way of fallacious "reasoning". I know what poor Democrats think, the current economy is changing voters from Democrat to Republican because people with jobs tend to learn real lessons about the reality of taxes, social programs, and what kind of information put out by schools and the media So you're a mindreader now? ok. Well, if the "current economy is changing voters (???) from Democrats to Republican, you've got some major concessions on the way, hopefully. Right? And yes, yes, platitudes and tergiversation about "right-wing people would never induce taxes on others...right-wing people would never engender the use of social programs [501(c)(4)s social welfare non-profits, tax-exempt, like Crossroads GPS, the organization co-founded by Karl Rove and its sister group American Crossroads, Crossroads GPS, all their spending done on behalf of Republican donations and influence],...right wing people would never put out mis- or disinformation in schools or the media ["WMDs in Iraq...."], no, we are good boys, never do nuffin' wrong". Many say they would have voted accordingly if they hadn't been lied to for so many years Dupes. People believe what they were taught to believe, if that belief is wrong, or based on falsehoods, and reality is different than what they are taught, they change their way of thinking No one is saying "Democrats are right". You've been brainwashed your whole life...the American dream is a lie. But you really believed it, and that sorta goes to your point, doesn't it? So, in the 60s, the boom time in the American dream, that is, after the 20s, the roaring twenties, remember? before the Great Depression. Then you got the 50s, economy is starting to really look up, 60s, booming...hence the BOOMERS, remember? lots of money, lots of families...what happened there? were there no Republican presidents in this time-frame? Actually, it's more Republicans by a total of 'two'. You were hoodwinked by both parties. It's not rocket science You could say that again. If what they were taught was based on facts, they will continue believe in what works That is a ludicrous oversimplification. Mussolini and Hitler's "facts" "worked" too. Does that mean they were right? You tell me. And also, you could say, "meh, it didn't work". Fair enough: did American Republicanism continue to work thru thick and thin [an idiom where I mean 'thru all odds stacked against them']? Nope. Because ideas evolve, and as the technology advances, communications tech, especially, the consolidation of economic powers fall in to smaller hands, as industry advances take on new forms whereby the expansion of the state is unbounded and, as mentioned earlier, when immigration flows in [which all parties have been privy to, in their avarice, the ailments of the rural and those who are so inclined to denigrate on such bases that their ailments go unnoticed], which it does regardless of what party is in charge, thru contemporary history, you see economies soar, which is why it [this SOP] was allowed to persist thru-and-thru, Democrat or Republican alike, because it was big business. You missed the fucking memo, ie., the actual historical data. it's why Democrats are panicking in the US today They are panicking because they are the most open about their expansive propensities, whereas the Republican party only expand into territory when there is a market for it, or when they can create one [cf. Iraq War, Libya...]. Food stamps, Medicaid, and all that other "free" stuff makes you less free Tell that to the elderly. You know, you're one of the most ironic people. So, you gonna enjoy that retirement when you are ready to start keeling over? You think maybe you'd pay into something for your kids, one day they're gonna need a home, and the market isn't getting any cheaper, maybe you should will them something for their future mortgage payments, then securities-backed currencies can continue to skyrocket, and they'll be working for big American steel or maybe even big tech, and then, you can tell them how much the old bastards out there don't really need any of that Medicaid, if they get stricken with dementia, or are bed-ridden with some other ailment...pfft, who needs to deal with the elderly, the government? pffft....NO, they need to be dealt with by their children. So hopefully yours are as hypocritical as you are, and they help you out, if you get stricken with something yourself, or even if you don't, that's grand, because you've helped pay for their mortgage, and the central banks of the world international love you for it, either way you spin it. Then more immigrants come...you catch my drift.

  7196. I'm too tired to respond in full, but for now..."edit what I said about religion" nothing...lol, you're clearly confused, or just making that up. I don't operate by "editing" things that I think will change my arguments. Not even. So good try. Anyway, as I said before it is pointless to converse with someone like you No, that's you. You are impossible to "converse" with. You haven't addressed a single solitary thing that's been argued, and you can only come up with non-substantiated claims of me "editing" things [which is a farce, truly]. And the fact that you changed your comment to hide the "I bet you can't" shows the voracity of all your comments What the fuck are talking about? LOL, you're mentally deranged. I said clearly: You can simply look at religion for an example: who's right, the protestants or the catholics? see, you can't really tell me, can you? - That is a direct quote. I didn't say "I bet you can't". I said "you can't really tell me, can you?", and you're clearly misremembering. Narcissism is a terrible thing, if you have to alter your comments so you can feel "right" it's a big problem. You're still wrong, and now you're a fraud also Empty words coming from you. I didn't alter anything, and you're either a liar, or a dumbass. I edited my post to fix some typos, and if anything, I added this to it, following the aforementioned statements: But the question is, who is more right in their assessment of what dictates should be followed in regards the education of a voting block, when they disagree on what money should be spent on and [what it] should not be spent on - I have to remind you of what was said, cause clearly you aren't capable of having a comprehensive memory conducive to an intellectually honest discussion; which wasn't had. And you still haven't proven anybody "wrong", so...again...what now? another claim of me dubiously editing something? what now? what fiendish thing did I change to somehow seal the facade of my big long winded posts detailing all this dilemma? boy, I must be so clever.

  7370. Styx is a fucking moron, apparently. He had a knife in his car? Ok...did he grab it? no...ok, so case closed, Styx is an official boot-licker and hypocrite. The entirety of the "right-wing" right now, are hypocrites about this: and as a final note: you're so "far gone" [but no, not the meme...I have nothing to do with any meme...my actually opinion is this...,] you "people" have lost your humanity...and truly, this is not just an opinion...you're really such hypocrites, to such an immense degree, you've forfeited your status as a human being. You are all just losing the plot of any kind of sense-making reality, in what you say, and what you all do...the hypocrisy becoming so overwhelming, that you literally do not deserve to be free. You only deserve to be treated like animals. America should be cordoned off from the rest of the planet, and possibly burned up. Really. Seriously. It'd not only be well-deserved, at this point, but it might be the only thing to stop this dark force of evil incommensurate with humanity, that is the "American spirit", from swallowing the whole world up in stupidity and ignorance. Aimless vengeance aimed only the edge of it's snail-like ambit, grotesquely sliming up from the well of deep despair from which it was wrought, in the depths of some hell unbeknownst to moral man, born of some deviltry of unconscious drive and the sediment of screams, wreaking havoc on everything it touches, wallowing in it's own self-love, poisoning the surroundings with the decrepit unknown presence of it's very existence, so depraved, teeth sharpened to a fine degree of theogosis, like a creature who knows nothing but a maligned precipitous fall into death, and the unbecoming of everything on this planet earth.

  7601. And example of stupidity: >The left has always refused fact unless it advances political agendas that benefit them. Uhh...that goes for every group in existence. You think there are some altruistic supermen out there fighting for multiple political agendas? don't political agendas tend to conflict with one another? >Idiotic reply. Of course political agendas conflict with one another. Got stupid? That is precisely what makes them POLITICAL AGENDAS. The topic being expressed is that the left almost always refuses irrefutable fact and instead preferring anecdotal evidence to advance their rigid ideology. The right often falls into the exact same refusal of reliable evidence when the outcome effects their donors and big business. Been following politics for 45 years. Nothing amazes me anymore than the stupidity of people like you. Uh, my stupidity? Yeah, and you didn't say any of that at first, did you? No, at first you left a comment that suggested that those who "always refused fact unless it advances political agendas that benefit them" are "the left"... and not as you suggest only with my prodding, both sides. Now you suggest both sides, correct, nitwit? How do you know I wasn't ascertaining the same exact thing you just described, and instead of leaving a pithy non-entity of a comment no one is gonna read, I'd rather bring out the actual notions you wish to espouse, in full view, by questioning and deconstructing your clearly lacking pith; because you failed to mention how it's not just "the left" that does the exact thing you describe, but the exact thing you describe is INTRINSICALLY [as per your choice of words] applicable TO ALL political sides. Hence why I had to ask you to clarify, because otherwise, your comment would not only be specious, but also lackadaisical and stupid as fuck. So stfu up, gormtard. What I was saying was, there is no group that vies for anything BUT their agenda; so to imagine people delineating any other kind of action or choice is retarded. Which is why your comment was lacking in your attempt at brevity.

  8467. ​ Kingy B  Yeah, and? He's was poor [and this goes against him by way of conservatives ocking him for it, as well, calling him "lazy" and calling him "good for nothing" - "didn't accomplish much", etc., forgetting that it's nearly impossible to play ball, that is, unless you deviate into "crypto-nationalism" [I suppose you could say; some terms can be rather extenuating to use in such interchangeable terms, but what I mean is that it's not quite "fascism" (actually, the left in ANTIFA circles, in America most peculiarly, are as fascist-seeming as the more fascist Fascists' in Greece, whom actually fight Grecian ANTIFA literally annually. Not to mention Italy, too; it's strong there...but point is, I'm sorry to digress,- it's called "linker-Fachismus" in some "academic circles, which is quite prescient...everyone said themselves, "they are the fascists, not the alt-right!"- well, partly true, look it up, "linker-Fachismus", or "leftist-fascism". Because fascism is a really funny thing you have to study a bit to know what it actually entails...more than "ultra-nationalism" which is sorta the watchword of the left when it comes to "fascism" as they typically understand it; they obviously would not agree with Habermas; but it's part and parcel to the same regime- they are just a different milieu, coming at the reformist activism of this kind of regime from a "leftist" position, that is to say, in this case a "inside" and "without" position, viz. the notion of "super-rich people" and there's your point about Sanders, by the by, that though, and also the notion of quasi-anarchistic forms of "social democracy" revolution, or in other words "Communism". But you see, if they don't think they are "fascist"- which they are being because they are trying to force reformism by way of "symbols" and "speech", even to the point of "so-called" "microfascism" ["you can't walk this street, with that red hat, you don't belong"], and you can see from this the reverse of the right-wing "type" of fascism that occurs when "inside" and "within" the "national-body" [the race "typically"- but also the "civic body", in Russian this is called the 'Narod', the "people", whom the Narodniks before Soviet Communism won the day in Russia, were also known as 'the Populists'], which supposes not only to keep aristocratic ties [but NOT in the Narodniks of Russia, because they acted more like what turned into the National Bolsheviks out of the revolution]- the "first" third position fascism indicates a wont to back away from these ties but retain the traditions of them- and note that Mussolini was a socialist, card-carrying, before he was a fascist, card-carrying. Whereas, say, National Socialism tends toward a "biological-race" model, informed by eugenics in the then progressive era, so-called...Fascism tends towards the "civic-body" of the "nation-race" or the "citizens" [from the root 'citoyen'], and discards the empirical model [at the time] of eugenics and opts for "Rome", essentially, as their model. It's almost similar to the USA's inception but their revolt was much different and their constitution [the best!] much different, inspired directly by many characters, many many, but typically, and that is to say, down-the-line-between two sides, (not referring to the civil war, no) and that is the federalists and the anti-federalists, in fear of the arising of a new monarchy approaching from the federal-government's insinuation against any defense opposing the sort of divide that would cause the issue. All very legal bafflegab for most people, considering it was the aver that the constitution was not totally sound and conterminus with their (like the Narodniks!) 'anti-aristocratic beliefs', which they "feared" would arise again, as I mentioned. Racial matters aside from these 'constitutionalists', but more like radical Christian Americans...this is the crux of the issue at hand now, though I'm not worried, it's not really "kicked off" yet. With the Libertarians [Hayek] and his think-thanks financing the juntas in Chile, the eventual coup of the "nation-race" was inevitable, proving not only various matters, but even still yet, showing the "evolution" of this thought-process, which was warned of by Engels, but surely. But as you can see, the shadow of Race and of Socialism looms in the shadow of tender-floating finance Capitalism and the casino mentality of the case of the American minimalist-mind, and mooching off "black families" no less, well, they are mooching off you, but you won't see that national debt go down, trust me...not with all this on your plate.

  8622. @Xavier Azhar What? I'm literally making counter arguments to all your comments and you think because I don't like your viewpoint that automatically makes my nonsensical I read what you posted. You are assuming I said something about a "message", I didn't. You're assuming I am attempting to assert something ambiguous about said "message". I am not. I have only said that what is seen in the videos are just public sex, or something indicative of that, and not "rape" like most are pooh-poohing about. You are assuming that by me asking people why 'they' think there is some kind of "message" or "romanticizing" of rape is me, in and itself, making a comment about a message in the video; I don't think there is a message, except a potentially very abstract one, one that includes, as I've detailed above, the notions of sex, public sex, eroticism, what underlies the pretensions of the videos concept, etc. You said that did nothing wrong so I told you what they did wrong Speak English, man. "You said that did nothing wrong so" you "told me what they did wrong" - I think what you meant is "[I] said they did nothing wrong so I [you] told you what they did wrong". - And did you? You seem to be confused. You're asking me what my opinion is about "a message" and I never said anything about any message [not before, not at first], or anything along those lines. I just described the videos above, and there is scant evidence for any sort of overt message [other than "sex is good" and "making babies is good" (meh, overrated. Babies are terrible and they smell bad)]. I didn't even say "they did nothing wrong", either. I am actually not saying anything about any of the morality involved in your viewing of the videos. This is why I gladly deigned to only watch portions of the video and not listen to any of the subject matter's critique from the host, who is clearly trying to ween his audience into a "douche a day" format for new content [even if unintentionally...which, hey, it works, for a bunch of gullible people who just have nothing better to do...like me]. I don't care about the morality of people having sex in public and for a Tiktok video no less, with some silly "bad guy" narrative [something we see in movies all the time, ooo, spooky!], nor do I care about the morality of such tropes being displayed in such videos - I have stated, however, that kids shouldn't even be on these types of platforms. Period. - That being said, what you people want to overlay onto the content is fascinatingly prudish, though. You said people are only hating becayse they don't like sexual things, etc, so I commented No, I said you were prudish, and insecure, not that you hated sexual things. You finally answered my question about what it portrays and yet you're still missing stuff because you have such a simplistic viewpoint You couldn't even bother to indicate what those things are - besides, even if you did, I couldn't care less about your morality play: the Tiktok video is a Tiktok video, raunch and fundamentally dumb shit is par the course on Tiktok, and lo and behold, most of the internet. And don't @ me with that "in my opinion shit either". I want to know the objective view that the majority have come out your mouth, which is" these skits are horrible for what they portray and are super awkward/ disgusting "In my opinion shit" - what? - It is my opinion - I am stating that very matter of factly [so to speak] because you would be the one [I figure] that would think this has anything to do with me...it doesn't. You can go and make me your enemy, though, cause you people and your starkly one-dimensional hive-minded takes are graft for the of sake views, clicks, and "opinions" [don't give me that shit, you say? but please, don't give it to me either, you cur]. You think this video is so bad? please, prey tell, how is it so bad? you tell me. Because like I said, the skits are obviously shitty and dumb, as par the course for material on the internet and especially Tiktok content. That's obvious - what isn't is people like you and your stark reaction. That is some obscurely fabled shit, it must be - please do tell the story of your wise truths, O enlightened one....

  8627.  @IncredulousMisanthrope  Here in this era especially, we consider asking enough people or considering the views of the majority on what's normal to find a "Crowd truth" (Socha and Eber-Schmidt). So when I referred to the norm, indeed I referred to how the majority behaves. What is exceptional becomes the abnormal. Your viewpoint was hence by this definition something I'd categorise as being "abnormal" The irony here being that by considering the exceptional as "abnormal" you'd have to consider "The Crowd" abnormal, by defintion. Your take on things remind me of Positivism, more specifically I reckon that Kant was a positivist like Karl Popper and August Comte (I can't confirm this) I might be making positive and declarative statements, but that doesn't make me a positivist. Kant isn't a positivist, haha, but that's still a nice guess. Kant comes way before Comte and other positivists. Positivism is STUPID. And an outdated model of the world. Kant is a transcendental idealist at some level: but after Pure Reason he steadies into what can only be described as Kantianism. Empirical realism and indirect [naive] realism is a sort of interpretation some scholars have. Fact is, there are all kinds. The German Idealist schools response to subjectivism [cf. Kant's response to Hume] is STILL being debated, to this day. You haven't proven anything by just recognising that, yourself. What I am specifically going for is a post modernist take on things, or intepretivism if you may for reasons I'll explain soon. We live in an era where "truth" is relative, as a matter of fact, it always has been. Except, due to the effects of globalisation, the understanding of truth being relative is more prominent, as stated by a sociologist called Kakutani (2013). She specifically referred to how the world is rapidly considering relativism due to how objective reality is impossible to interpret whatsoever Interpretivism is already covered in Kantian studies [cf.Realism and Antirealism in Kant's Moral Philosophy], seeing as Kant had made strides in works in law and jurisprudence, which is what interpretivism is in all respects, about. It is about how social groups cohere in their notions of "truth", and therein, the law and jurisprudence of a land [now grown into a globalised notion of such jurisprudence and socio-collective concepts of law]. There is nothing in postmodernism ignored by Kantian studies. I don't just refer to Kant, though, because he happens to be useful here, I am specifically referring to the transcendental psychology (and not the particular psychologism of my opinion of anything) of how subjective thinking operates. We do not REQUIRE crowd thought to interpret things, even if there is a tendency towards a uniform correctness underlying the "truth of crowds". After all, not everyone is a scientist, so, this for example, would be unreliable work for the "truth of crowds", typically. Not until more people observe what science is, and learn it's epistemological limits. Also, note, every philosopher and scientist gets critiqued by others: this is called discourse...it's not been dissuaded into silence yet. Ever wondered why I took a social idealism based stance? Well...I had "science" to back it up... Quantum physics? Well, seeing as we haven't the faintest idea how quantum reality pertains to neuronal function [yet], nor does this quantum reality seem to impinge on our sense-data, our perceptions, our observations [save in the wave-function collapse of "observation", but we both know we aren't talking about "crowds" here, nor "truth", are we? just relative truth]. What seems to be more relevant is the ideas we hold, as a society, no? That's where this argument is going, no?

  8628.  @IncredulousMisanthrope  What is true is indeed objective reality, no denying this. But our cognition fails to capture the pure essence of objective reality due to our notions of prioritising certain "objective" information to back up our beliefs on what should and shouldn't be true, which is our subjectivity (subjective truth) Yes, but my cognition doesn't fail to function as if it works. You want to walk back your words about "assuming things"? no? You don't, right? To us, we find such content (the video) as distasteful What are you, The Borg? "To us". I am a "you". Like I said, you don't comprehend what "abnormal" really means. Even being "globalised" is "abnormal" to the foundational [and not orthogonal] norm or normativity. What is truly exceptional is the norm or normativity that is constitutive of normativity itself, therefore, not the foundational, where things merely cohere together as what is "normal", it is the "abnormal" vis-a-vis the EXCEPTIONAL which constitutes the overall and ideal "norm", which is, like you said, subjective - the "objectivity" of it's self as an object is constituted in it's WHOLENESS. And considering that finite feature of what constitutes the "abnormal" and the whole, that is, subjective being, and given that one must consider the "other" in subjectively cohering with other rational agents, that is, the "outside" of one's subjective being, one must consider Reason, and by that Reason, consider the "truth" cohered (I should even say inhered) in the matter at hand [the discourse and also the semantic-space of language]. But I reckon most people will find such content abhorrent I already find such content abhorrent, just not being of a stark and fable-driven reaction to what you think you ought not to be witnessing in what is inevitably bound to be trash, given the platform and the culture it resides within. And then you [well, not "you" specifically, mind you, with me, I'd say you're not as crass and moronic as some others, but still not really making a point] - you and others - are all set to be really offended at something YOU THINK OUGHT TO BE considered "like rape" but what I find has more reasonable explanations [other than herp derp it's Russian] and also find that as distasteful as the content is, it's not THAT shocking, not that "vile", not that "gross", as you people are making it out to be, because of your inherent sensitivity to the issues you perceive are exemplified in the video[s]. I have stated that I find the result of such affectations to be "abhorrent" myself, because seldom do I see such hypocrisy. I view some of the content on this very channel to be crass [dildo challenges?], much of the jokes being made to be crass, in effect. And yet you people see some Tiktok videos with some 'dude-bros' making the obvious 'dude-bro' gestures of open public sex in a feigned way [resigned to fantasy and fiction and acting] as an ACTUALLY FEIGNED APPROACH to induce, slyly, a "romanticising" and affect of "rape" and "sexual abuse/violence", when it is merely your own prejudices informing this attitude and opinion? when obviously the people who made the video were not SERIOUS about their portrayal, nor were they taking any exception with the act of sex as a form of unwanted approach, or abuse, in a word - but instead were evoking the image of a meme [hentai villain] (at most) overlooking what is FEIGNED sexual desire [for the content of the video is fictional], and all while you (and others) overlook the obvious joke, and the obviousness of it's non-seriousness, and it's fictional conceptualising of events, which have no tie to "rape" in the video, but only pertain to a meme about how certain character archetypes matched with the scene of openly avowed of and consented [implied, that is, by the gesturing towards more sex and the lack of disavowal] sex MAKES the joke, and also garners a reaction from people who'd be offended by such a joke? and it's such a non-funny joke, too, yet it still worked. That's on you people. You people helped it along. Lol. Here in this case, the majority agrees with the idea that such content is immoral, while the minority says otherwise. Both may be right or wrong depending on interpretation Who cares what's moral or immoral [in this instance of free expression in an artisic medium (badly done)]? like I said, you people are being prudes...you want it to be moral? but...that's not how jokes, nor how Tiktok, nor even how sex works...you think sex is moral? gee. That's a whole can of worms. So if you consent to sex, and then you have a kid [let's just skip over the pregnancy part, sorry every mother out there]. Is it moral to have the kid? given the immoral world we live in? The kid surely doesn't consent. So? are we done? The language part you mentioned may also be contested. Language itself has no meaning. Yes there is a structure, but individuals themselves form meaning and purpose to such words to suit their ideas (Symbolic interpretivism, George Herbert Mead). An experiment for instance by similar interactionists highlighted how people formed their own narratives through a simple "yes" or "no" replies, which further strengthens my point that people make up their own meanings to fit their ideas Language itself has no meaning, this is true, but I didn't say language inherently had meaning - what I said was that for apperceptive-rational agents and intelligences to have access to communication they need a rational space of discourse to use, which is inherent in language. This is getting too long...can we finish this now? Do I have to get into how we indeed function on input-output functions and that KANTIANISM still deals in this very subject...so.... Lastly, truth is again...subjective. Your interpretation of truth is no superior than the rest. According to Jean Baudrillard (1996) we live in a post modern world, where reality and fiction is merged via the media, creating a condition known as hyper reality. Here we feed on representations of information (eg:- texts, transcripts etc) which are no more real than the other as they are viewed through a subjective lens. Even objective reality, I reiterate is viewed through the same lens I am not interpreting "the truth", I'm interpreting a video and your moral outrage in response to it. And you clearly haven't read Baudrillard. I have. He uses 'pataphysical whim to extract an encapsulation of 'hyper-capitalism' which leads into and resolves into 'hyper-reality', which, in his eyes, is...not a good thing, but a nightmare.

  8647. It only affects law abiding citizens So? more guns that move across the border, even if "legally owned", because criminal elements own "legally owned" guns. Duh. Criminals can use a gun to commit crime in any state. Restricting movement of guns shouldn't restrict gun crime, because guns should be available in every state Yes, work backwards from the logic that police use to ultimately protect themselves -- because all that matters is the 'right to ought'. But alas, there is probably rationale for why the laws work as they do now. No state should be able to restrict gun ownership, because of the 2nd amendment. That's the point That's a fairly discarded "point". Plenty of contradictions in the constitution, itself, & when regarding law- look at the 14th and the 1st? no conflict? nah. Right? No private sector conflict of interest? Well, but of course, there is. Also, states rights would predominate in cross-border jurisdiction. You are thinking of some magical fairy-tale land where the US isn't actually composed of separate states [with individual states rights] and where America is just a giant confederation. Criminals break the law to get their guns. Law abiding citizens should be able to have their own guns Yeah, and they are. You have to make an argument...not just utter platitudes. The 2nd amendment makes this a non-controversy There already is no controversy, save the shit you "conservatives" are making up [you're really federalists]. Anything who pushes for gun control is going against the Constitution, the majority of the American Public, and common sense No one is doing that, ultimately. Not at least on the right-wing. The right-wing in America wants to further bolster their gun rights, but don't see a way to legitimately set that precedence.

  8678. The problem here in this doctors professional opinion (in the video, ya?) is he offers no counterfactuals in his examples, leaving them a bit thin and oversimple. There are plenty of people who opted for careers, got degrees, and do work in a field they are comfortable in, and literally have the hobby of playing (even an exorbitant amount) of video games. And this is another problem with this perspective: it's strictly conservative. It seems even almost like the Dr. Yeomans, here, is this notion that people have to be in advanced careers, everywhere, in every which way, which doesn't really make sense in reality: in reality, there are limitations in resources, and in the "worth" of certain types of employment. Why he mentions none of this isn't beyond anyone to understand [hence why I am opting to write this]. But most of the comments, here, sadly, seem to be just as limited in scope. Personally, I think people even in careers that are not "really careers", like Uber drivers, and office employees, who literally do, say, Telemarketing, they aren't necessarily wrong for having an inner life that doesn't comport to reality, I mean, logically following the notion that Dr. Yeomans thinks that people should (ideally) all have successful careers, and be doing exactly what...needs to be done? (???) erm, or what is...Good? like the Platonic Good, like the way "things should be" if people weren't ignorant (ie., narcissistic)? I mean, is everyone who doesn't have a degree, has a part-time job, lives at home, and likes games someone with NPD, or does society just have a problem with people not "idealizing" what society is, to them?

  8840. have you ever stopped to think to yourself maybe people don't care to entertain anything you ask Have you ever stopped to think? I never asked anyone anything, idiot. I have made statements. It's up to you whether you want to actually address them, or not. you are a presumptuous, condescending and ignorant person who just throws around insults at people calling them names You are also presumptuous and you are ignorant, that's for sure; and I can probably be more condescending than you, sure. Marring ridiculous statements and idiotic "memes" [very poor linguistic programming, in this instance] is just fun. Sorry about that. then you sit here wondering why nobody takes you seriously and won't engage with you Not really, it's all merely for rhetorical effect, that I insist that you actually engage with what I've said, rather than perusing very haphazardly what's been said, and like most other posters- who've addressed me, but not what I've said — have done, and that's to simply call me a "democrat" or call me names, or say "I'm wrong" with no argument to suppose just how I'm wrong. You've done nothing but this, just the same. Typically, you cannot actually address and refute anything I've said, otherwise you would have already, instead of trying to insinuate how mean I am. =( Also, You use quotation marks for quoting someone not bold You use quotation marks for lots of things, not just quoting someone. There are "air-quotes" too, you know. Plus, this way that I do it, makes the statement I'm addressing stand out, so people can identify it. Frankly, I have my reasons for using bold.

  8842. Not talking about impeachment. I'm talking about your actions as a constituency and as proponents of party politics, which pertain to the same tactics used, on both sides. That's the hypocrisy. If your point is about one party slinging mud at another, you would be better served by considering to what scale Scale isn't the relevant issue. It's that it happens at all, that's the issue. Sometimes you gotta wonder, who assassinated Kennedy? These people all work together. Hence...as a Trump supporter...I can't really engender too much faith in any of these parties. Trump is, essentially, an outsider, and even he can be usurped and used. It completely and utterly depends on factors that people like you or I have zero control over. If he really is a maverick, he's got a lot to prove, and a hope to inspire, down the line. That hope does not reside with the parties...period. They didn't have that "hope" until Trump.... But there's a huge difference between doing something, and kicking an idea around and ultimately deciding not to. In fact, they are opposites Ok. Doesn't seem to be working out too well for the Democrats. a fully partisan political action to delegitimize an election that has happened three years ago What? You are acting like this is unprecedented. It's not. Trump is just a very big face for the scene. Nixon had more of a long face...not such a fat one, like Trump. My point is that Trump stands out more, most things do, nowadays, given social media as a presence, etc. But this isn't the first time people took seemingly "delegitimate" action against a standing president because of partisan political hack-jobs. Either on the left, or the right. At least Republicans hold themselves to the standard of EVIDENCE. 'Rats do their shit on nothing but feelingz See, at least Morpheus got the point. But alas, when the Republicans were clamoring to impeach and remove Obama from office, the only "evidence" they had was circumstantial and not truly evidential but more like a feeling or assumption, which they then tried to prove afterwards, after they already made the claim...and did they succeed in finding evidence to prove anything? nope.

  8861. All the other systems don't Socialism soaks through all the lands of outside nations- it is it's own Lebenstraum, it is it's own employment of ATTRITION in order to gain the resources it needs, but it does it through propaganda, all through this destruction of hierarchy and culture/heritage- in order to absorb immigrants and displace the native population/workforce, for the sake of efficacy in the face of LOW-FUNDS and RESOURCES: call this the "band-aid" or "stop-gap" effect. "State Socialism", obviously, requires centralization, it has been delineated (according to history, anyway), at least by Historical Standard (see: Trotsky); but yet a global effort (aka non-Globalist World-cooperation) is the best course of action— this suggests that borders & finite controls on population, with minimal government intervention (the most minimal to approximate the smallest force required to implement a state-guard against monopolies & immoral business practices)...'. Social Democracy starts up [and you can see the results, it is seen right from the second and even first world war, in Germany], and the reason why is the "ideal" end of making people more or less "democratized" but globally considered [hence, "social democracy" is leftist in the regard that it "transcends race" to "fend for the worker, the poor, the disenfranchised", whatever], & that is part of the selfsame "band-aid effect" I elucidate above: The "taking away" of sovereignty starts above: but you can now see WHY it happens, and why capitalists coordinate with "progressives" all the while: you can call it "anti-white" [it is] but it's also a part of a vaster problem which is contributed to by "globalization" [cf. above on "social democracy", and also see "multiculturalism"]. There is a means of "denial" and/or "exit", but you'll always be dragged back to this same song and dance, and it won't change...because of the synarchic trends therein "globalization"; which leads to "globalism" [which is actually just a way to discern "global concerns" about cosmopolitanism].

  8877. Notice that the entire documentary is tailored to the notions presented by the psychiatrists other than the guy in the chair who was admitted to have especial insight; even though a part of his interview is used as a soundbite earlier in the presentation, while later in context it pops up in a way that a: doesn't tailor itself to the notions of the other psychiatrists [who are trying to blame Berkowitz's sex life] and b: doesn't use the same premise to a juridic decision aimed at his "sexual needs", per se [and their criss-crossing with violent tendencies], and instead looks at the role resentment played by pointing out the race of the couples he targeted, emulating the couple he was adopted by, and then in the afterimage [, of the motion blur, ] of a past he never knew, he sought to alienate them as he was cast out, by pain of death, because he was feeling that much anguish and fear and turpitude, and he chose the path in his life to kill, maim, strike fear and anguish back into the heart of the society that he blamed for his parents' being unrighteous, and then emulating the very act, in his mind, was taken by society itself, to abandon him [retroactively] by being the sort of people he imagined his adoptive parents as, which reflected on the missing past which haunted him, and which he propped up in the mirror as 'society itself' with him in it "programmed to kill" "an outsider" "a beast". He saw no way out, and would be called, surely, a coward if he had killed himself...or had just been nobody, a statistic. This surely, was also relevant.

  8961.  @northernwatch534  You've already claimed several as your own: really your question should be: why didn't you "cull the herd". That's what you really are thinking, no? well, it's the logical conclusion to your sentiments. You are a product of your environment: Capitalism has brought [and kept] the cattle: not even "white capital", but simply capital, in general, which is a world-wide phenomenon. Don't act like you just figured this out, that it's "opportunity": for the rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer, world-wide - meaning that the poor from the less rich places want to move (or eventually have to) to the more rich places, often times just for work: look at how the cities grow and expand and give metastasis to the rural (the Ruritania). This is all just part and parcel to the nature of Capitalism, it seeds itself everywhere and delimits everything but itself until only it's delimitation of itself lends to it's reduplication in the model of whatever suspends or delays it: it captures it: the nomad, the itinerant, the sedentary, the migrant, the rural, the city-folk, it captures everything, every ideology, fascism, Marxism, anarchism, "traditionalism", ancient ideals, and it puts a false-face on them all: it is pure avarice for the projection of self onto all-things: and worse yet, you can't have it, of course not: you want social ends, at least, more than you probably want riches, endless riches, but those with endless riches do not want you, do not care for your social ends, your feelings, your belonging, your caring, to give to you what you think or feel you need, it only gives you what it thinks and "feels" you need - in a sympathetic tone, it wants you to give you to itself. Always and forever. It is Mammon, it is Satan, it is Original Sin [or it might as well be]. It was forewarned time and time again, and it's a feud that will last a life time, because the greed of a few, a synarchy, will determine Capitalism, and capital flows, not people trying to meet their social ends; to buy food, clothes, take care of their kids, their family, their home, their jobs, etc. etc. Forever.

  9022.  @AnAZPatriot  No one was talking about your kids, either...that's another thing. Of course kids need to be exposed to germs to have a healthy immune response...you also don't want them to have an immune system that is developing to have a immune repressing reaction to something, like influenza. Or CV. So why did you think we were talking about that? you're going off of strawman arguments, my guy. No one has to wipe anything down unless they want to minimize the risk for themselves, personally - businesses doing such things were doing so out of over abundance of caution, there isn't any data to suggest it's necessary, and it's going to be phased out soon. And the only reason I have to mention that is because you did...so...again...why? I literally agreed with you...but the only thing you could do was be hard-headed about your BS, and then look...YOU ARE THE ONE with the strawman arguments, [I repeat]. It's ludicrous. lol And I say the experts are unreliable...but so are you, my guy. You came up with all this shit that you thought you could confront me with, here, and it all are things I either agree with, never brought up to begin with, or both, and you just brought it all up cause you're mad about how people responded [to CV]. I'm with ya, but you're also still being an idiot. All I am saying is you didn't have the data about the Cold being helpful in protecting against CV. You don't even know why it does...you haven't mentioned why, at least. So please. Save your diatribe. [...]

  9073.  @kristoferlarson  There is no personal responsibility, and there is no national responsibility, not without self-management. And this "right"-wing fakery doesn't approve of self-management and will fight any attempt at it, tooth and nail, like the hypocrites they are. The contract any has with their employer, by the very nature of the contract as is, isn't fair. Nothing is fair. What is fair about the expropriation of your valuable time, siphoned for some big-wig to make more money than he'll ever fairly pay you for, in terms of the profit he extracts from you, and everyone else like you, who works under him? Ask Styxhexenhammer what he would do if he had to work a "real job", as it were. I remember at one point he said he'd rather live a vagabond life or die, than work on some shitty wage job. Just for example. You wanna talk about debt slavery? what about it? capitalists love it. You, presumably, are a capitalist, right ["are you making the argument that the contract you have with your employer isn't fair"]? well, then you don't mind debt slavery. There is no other option. Capitalism isn't capital, and nothing is being "capitalised" on, and nothing is capitalising, unless it's by profit motive. That IS capitalism. Not "crony capitalism", but all capitalism, by function. You want to see civil society meet it's maker, then see to it capitalism is halted. But you can't, so you won't. So you won't get anything you people want, and will just butt-heads [maybe worse, as things are looking now, certainly worse] with "the left" as you continue to look more and more like them [their worst proponents] everyday. You ain't fixing this problem with putting more black people in jail or in the grave, nor white people: or...or if there is any attempt, it's not going to be pretty, and it will be based purely off of a tergiversating from this current Republican brain-trust, away from issues of 'debt slavery' and into issues of "national interest", which the world over knows about...knows all to well ["I'm non-interventionist! wait, the wind turned, now I'm interventionist again!"]. Either Americans sort their shit out, or...you spiral into chaos. It isn't some fucking black guy's fault, nor is it because he had a knife in his car, nor because he was on drugs, or any lamebrained excuse. It's because your system of governance and societal structure is fucked up beyond all repair.

  9172.  @therealcirclea762  You aren't really understanding how a strawman works. But look, l'll explain to you something: I didn't make an argument. You said posted some placard [Keynes vs. Hayek], and so I said some fact, and then you fetched an article from an interview with Hayek, explaining his political views and sort of insinuating why he did help supplant Chile's government for the one people will now call socialist [rightly, they have it half-right, at least; because Chile has a strong racial bond it was easy for them to be, basically, anarcho-capitalists [pure clanship, esprit de corps, weltanshauung in a racial self-hood of selbst, or a volkish self-management]. People call it socialist because of this. Because all social ends are considered at both bottom and top levels of governance, that is public and private. As this liberalism takes, socialism and capitalism blend naturally, as achem "certain people" predicted...I won't name who, but...it's certainly ironic. Nevertheless; Keynes is a poop head. Liberalization in the business sector runs amok into neoliberalist cosmopolitanism [glocalization is the nearest thing to a workable exponent of this globalization: no one will take to that anyway, because it's still too confusing: proving the liberatarian ethic and anarchist ethic to be ever the more hard to accomplish]. Globalization and globalism [civic society, or international, cosmopolitanism] are both extensions not only of this neoliberal [the safety trend not only of progressivist "power blocs" but of, literally, human resources...cf. The Democrats and their voting bloc. It's all there, as you probably well know. And neoconservatism is stuck in the oil gouging wars of the middle eas-y[sreal], viz. the "war in the middle east" [Delta Forces]. This causes a feedforward mechanism of interventionism, "spreading democracy" [ops], and obviating catastrophe for the sake of the war-machine: aka, the oil companies. It's all there. Have you anything to add?

  9203. The Similarities & Differences Of Fascism & Communism: Right now the "antifa" people are a threat to American sovereignty. This "Anticenter-Fascism" [linker-Fachismus] is not good for the country. It's growing (on both the right [national socialism in it's racialism] and the left) because the left keeps insinuating itself in debacle after debacle, pissing off the right enough for them to become "rampantly individualist" from the base of the 'center-right' on the political spectrum, and thus separate from the left entirely—a bifurcation. Which is by title alone extensive in it's nuance, because it is this that is actually an attempt at the impossible; that is to say, the two divisions share in remarkable quality the essence of what both sides want to achieve, yet vary in the goals to achieve for themselves- and that's still putting it simply. Yet the Fascist strives for (thus in likemindedness they strive for) what is essentially an antithesis to the Centrist model, given the current political spectrum. It's revolutionary, it's tendency is to be disdained, it involves a massive disproportion of violence (throughout history, this is a fact)—and it revolves around idealist solutions that DO NOT WORK for long term success, unless they were to enact a virulent (and in this day and age, possibly world-ending) war—the selfsame as the Communist, which aims for non-violent coercion [save for the composite forms of 'crude communism', the Soviets, Chinese Imperialists, Pol Pot, etc. in other words "extremists", in the tone of Zionism], in the striving for autarky (whether they achieve that or not History tells us is an entirely different matter); that is, whether collectivized, a la Communist existence, versus, "more independent" a la Fascismo methodology, for the state. Now notice, there are two distinctions here: One: Fascism focuses on "independence", and there is a, let's call it, "rampant individualism" of the Fascistic flair—and yet they at most collectivize the labor's wealth at the very highest state levels—in order to fund it's activities, all while maintaining it's self-providing state. It relies on everyone's "individual" effort, but no less than "everyone's"; similar to.... Two: Communism focuses on "collectivism" and there is a notion of the state being abolished and the individual being insuperable in importance, a la Fascismo—but without the import of the state—thusly requiring, in theory, no one to supplant one another in their collective importance. Thusly, like the Fascismo, they are needed in a collective state to provide the necessities of the whole of the individual- this is what the Greeks taught, at some point, I do believe—point is, that it eventually requires something akin to a state, and as the line somewhat goes, eventually you just call what is quacking a duck- and yes I'm paraphrasing- this is a walking, talking & LAME duck, this attempt to stifle "centrism", as if the mere notion of Centrisim weren't just "preventing collapse of contemporary society". Something we should aim to preserve. [This last part (at "point is") is definitely a snap at statism as anymore than the social requirement, period: nothing akin to a imperialistic state apparatus, but the State often adapts that form. And the social requires the economic at that end, but that means that the conversion from socialism and/or anarcho-capitalism (in a given racial/national body) and then into either totalizing it's pursuits of resources and juridical/legal components or absolutizing the universal imperative of racial/national or religious directives: which then lead to a contradiction: this is why you see such forms taking place in Russia, as of now, and in China, still yet].

  9208. @Benjamin "Musslini and Hitler agreed with certain aspects of Marxism, ergo they're the same as Soviet Communism" I didn't say that. You are misreading me. I never ever said these words you've jettisoned out of your head. I was actually trying to make the point you just made: it was DIALECTICAL [cf. Giovanni] of their ERA [Fin de siècle—which I would have gotten...and given the opportunity, here it is...]. And I know about Hegel. That's the point, Hegel WAS a CONSERVATIVE IN HIS DAY — Precisely, why Marx and Hegel and the German Idealist school following after Kant, and then the phenomenologists after Husserl, like Heidegger, et al. are so prescient to understand in their fullness. NatSoc is basically retarded unless you're actually German, then ok; or you plan on being the only national base around; and fascism is just a trend: it's more proper to human nature, in my opinion, but...that is to say, in a more operable way, than say, NatSoc, which is basically too extreme. It's not serviceable, especially, under "capitalism" [that is to say, the means to production]. The "race" needs must control the production, and the customary law become non-binary to the law of other peoples, when the "self-hood" of the race [or weltanshauung] takes on "it's own meaning" and significance, as it were [which is what the fascists wanted to, but in a different sense, not so much based on the science at the time, biology, etc.]...point is, people are trending towards "self-management", either way you go, any which way in the triad espoused here, Marxism, Fascism, or National Socialism: they all converge in Socialism [self-management] of a kind that is differentiated from the status quo, as it were, or if you will, the "trend" of capitalistic endeavor as it stands [crony capital- and that's within "liberalist" ends, as well, which is the synarchy which contract their flows of wealth into "state" socialism, and whence comes the idea of "capitalist-socialism" or "gradualism" [cf. Fabian Society]...you can also see this trending ideal with the MPS [Mont Pelerin Society] funding the juntas in Chile: which become, again, SOCIALIST [or at least they are called socialist, but they are only socialist in on sense...they are "self-managing by race/nation" [the difference between "civic nationalism" and "ethnonationalism" is bound to the difference in "socialism" in state democracies, or pseudo-democracies, and "Socialism" as in "national socialism" [race-based self-management]. Where am I wrong?

  9360. Dude, I know, it's retarded garbage- that shit might have been edgy in the 70s but it's outdated...Feminism came up with that shit, too. Sure it's of "postmodernity", as in the era...but I don't see how it pertains to Postmodernist philosophy, at all- and postmodernism IS a philosophy. In and of itself, and within Architecture (as alluded by Styx, and I am actually, upon thinking about it, leaning more towards Styx's opinion regarded that), and within Literature (often misattributed to writers whom don't claim to be 'postmodernists') -- I guess what Styx is saying is fundamentally true, but no one even talks about the conflation going on here. I ask people to name me one Postmodernist philosopher that ascribes to "patriarchy", or "32 genders" that isn't also a VEHEMENT Feminist/Gender Studies Guru (which is more like Sociology, don't you think? Conflict Theory/Critical Theory...Structuralists/Post-Structuralists...all of these things get conflated to mean "Postmodernism", but I defy anyone to tell me of any of the OLD (late 50's, early 60's) Postmodernists, or tell me how the theory of Language Games is wrong (the Feminists and Gender Guru's love that shit, and people love debunking it, because you CAN deconstruct language...but NOT Biological FACT...HAHA, THEIR fuck up- they don't know of what they even speak! And the "skeptics" don't even realize they are tackling this with Language Games to PROVE their assertions (that Biological Fact is not able to be "Deconstructed"- not by the means they wish...they can only hope to assign Gender Roles LINGUISTICALLY, but that's it...(and the law issues, if you are thinking i'm anti-Peterson-fucking-telling-them-to-fuck-theirselves, you'd be wrong; that shit, legally speaking, disturbs me. But the morality involved also does to- I dislike vehemently hateful and vile people, on any side of any debate.) Sorry for the ramble- the only way to get my thoughts out on this subject, it makes my head spin. I think the WORD Postmodernism is STUPID. Anyways, Metamodernism is the new thing now, and people should focus, at LEAST, on BOTH, and have a dialectic debate about the merits of disabusing people of either/or, for the sake that they are the most prevalent. Modernism is also ATTACHED to Postmodernism, intrinsically, I might add. It should all be critiqued, but NOT CONFLATED- just like fucking White Nationalists (whomever they may be) shouldn't be conflated with Supremacists or Nazis;...the logic i'm applying there is the same I apply the absent-minded misuse (or OVERUSE) of the damn stupid word Postmodernism. It's just Stupid.

  9484.  @bza6874  Maybe because this 'education' is teaching you the wrong things, such as socialism not being bad Socialism is such a dense topic, there is utopian socialism [Charles Fourier], there is the an-cap Chilean "socialism" funded by the libertarian think-tank associated groups, and the "socialism" attributed to the likes of Che and so-on. There is European socialism. There is the race-based self-management of National Socialism. There is the aspect that becomes twain with socialism, called "social democracy", which is really the worldwide affect of the "symptoms" of socialism accruing in a world-wide capitalist economy, where all trade is tied to international banking systems. How is "bad" to learn about these things? fact is, you are being lied to all the time. Might as well learn about the entire scope of what you are being lied to about. I did. Didn't need to go to school and waste my time or money. I just read. Nobody who has experienced socialism would want it That's just a contrived presumption based on nothing but word of mouth. People living in Europe, in socialist countries, seem to have no problem with their non-revolutionary socialism. And it is a symptom, so to speak, of an ailing governmental system that is sought by it's own people to be refined: they do so because it is in need of refinement, even if it's taken to the left. Because some of these nations can't compete on the world-stage, the opt for socialism, anyway. The only people who want socialism are naive people who have never experienced it, and who are indoctrinated in universities That is completely uninformed. You're making a huge sweeping judgement based on nothing but propaganda. Plenty of people experience socializing, so hence they experience the trends of socialism. They experience the need to strike, and to form unions. Sure, they become corrupt, but like everything, things are corrupt. Why shouldn't people do what they can for themselves? because they aren't provided for, why should they sit on their hands? just because you said some words? If you can't see Bernie for the fraud he is, you are probably going to have to experience it the hard way. Just wait till he endorses Bloomberg or something, like he endorsed Hillary Fraud? how? He's been utterly consistent, even in his "supporting" other candidates which he says he "keeps on eye on" [at face value, I have no reason to doubt that, seeing as is as centrist as they come, for a socialist] seeing that he is an American-borne "self-described" socialist, when really, he's more of a social democrat...which makes for just as much bureaucracy, but is not quite the same thing [even if people allude to it as the same, which is just more misinformed or prevaricating propaganda]. It's best to be clear on these things, they are all effects of a wider picture that people refuse to see the historical precedence of, because they are lied to, and told to 'just wait, your salvation is coming'. Always. It always is "just around the corner", but it never is. Bernie Sanders does not want to be president, he wants to make a few bucks with his booksales Meh, so does Styx? Is that so wrong?

  9485.  Susan C.  Only because of the fact of the dumbing down of society, in general. You too. People are losing themselves...for many reasons. Social media...minimalism [these damn screens]...lack of social connection...lack of incentives...behavioralism isn't working, and social engineering is driving the social engine still, even as it's exposed, because people don't realize the intrication of the complex systems they live in, as the population is the size it is. As such, things complicate in the realm of ideas, the ideograms, political ideologies, and then some...the real crux in the pedagogy [outside of the current pedagogy of the damned (the internet) and the pedagogy of the oppressed (see the book of the same name, Pedagogy Of The Oppressed, to see where, not social justice, but "socialism" enters into the Prussian system: to combat this, system exemplifies Common Core curriculum to mainstream the core system of education, which ties it even further into the pipeline into work-life, the factory, the government, the medical apparatus [big connection in the whole thing, is this portion of the medico-military industrial complex], and what is worse the military co-opts the nomadic forces [the "pioneering" ones in America—in Europe, the "proletariat" is a fitting term, if you understand where it comes from (the French Revolution, essentially, and then it's expanded on by Marx)—fact is, this is important stuff...American's revolted and had a revolution, too, just at the same time as the communists started to roll-out their programmes—and of course, this was not just done by Marx, the ideas here also evolved and this ties into the notion of the Marxian dialectic, and Hegelian dialectic, Kant, the pan-German idealist school, which is in Philosophy 101, prelude to Nietzsche, usually (of import, the idea of the "eternal return")—of course, all of this ties into the arguments of the schools of Scholasticism, medieval Theology, and down into the basic tenants of Christianity]. The nomads are faced off in the rural against the metropolis [the Megalomania expansion of urban gentrification—which is not just a "racial issue"], and the State-apparatus is, thru these economics systems in place [out of the Austrian schools response to marginalism which was a response to Marxist critique—which is now primarily in a Keynesian mode, thru out the globe] and thru 'globalization' [and 'globalism'], thru all this, it [The State] is very reductionist. The core of any critique can come from here. The thing is Foucault, and his theory of biopower. A good theory, but brought out [and critically examined] by Delueze, it's made more constructive, and with the Bateson model of the "plateau" or "double-bind" [which primitive societies find themselves locked into, against the modern world] and the Baudrillardian notion of 'code' (overcoding, decoding, coding, of 'signs'—which ties into 'semiotics', which is the part of 'semantics', the logic of communication, in other words; which ties into 'linguistics', of course), he creates a system which even can be overlayed onto the Traditional system of Evola (which is noted by esteemed thinker Alexander Dugin, in Russia). The thing about Foucault is that his biopower took off so strongly, which was warned of by Deleuze and hence was critically deconstructed in his main work I'm referring to here (which is so much more than even just that but let's not prattle on much longer...Marx, Freud, Kant, Spinoza, et al. All of these are important in philosophy, as well as other fields). This 'intersectionalism' is a form of postmodern virus, borne out of this Foucaultian schematic. See? I learned you up some. You just got a free quasi-lesson in philosophy. Now look up this stuff, read it yourself, and you don't need to go to school, per se.

  9491.  ecky1965  The Netherlands and Sweden are not as you put it socialising. They are market driven economies and politically are moving more to the right as all of Europe is Have you seen a prison in Denmark? Have you seen what kind of [socialized] healthcare they have? Dude, you are so confused as to think that nations can't use a capitalistic endeavor in the market-place...of course they must, because capitalism is a world-wide phenomenon. Derrr Herr... Are you American ......I only ask as Americans usually have a poor grasp of things over here No one has a poorer grasp of how America works than Americans themselves, it seems. I know plenty of non-Americans that know the law better than most do who want to talk shit, but guess what...you wouldn't know it. It's like the Soviet Union...you know, America went through all sorts of counter-measures against 'teh communism', right? Just for sake of money, but hey...the freedom for money is much better than your freedom from tyranny. It's good, also for the culture [not]. Or so I hear. And yeah...most of you are kinda looking for "racial" national socialism, but those more centrist-conservatives are still stuck in the loop of wanting to "go back", as it were...some of you supposed "monarchists" even...let's assume you aren't that far gone...even in the most "tame" conservative few, you, I presume, want to see the "immigration" issue solved...the Wall, as it were...well, that certainly might improve the "illegal immigrant" situation, and political tensions [and racial] will continue to rise, so more and more so people like yourself will be swayed towards national socialism, either way; or otherwise, more towards social democracy...anyway, if you don't go as far as to say, 'I will not go so far and remain somewhat democratic in my national stance', the nationalism either gives way with the pacifism [as nationalist ties are drawn from symbols of exchange in war, aren't they? sort of, historically speaking. That can change, but would you divulge how you'd do that?], and then with that ekes further into that dreaded ghost of communism [which the national Bolsheviks were all about, by the way...]. If not that, then unless you put up a literal bar to migrants becoming citizens, and even eventually bar travel into and out of the country [heavily effecting tourism, obviously, and thusly the economy], what then? Surely, you will value your states material infrastructure, and your governance will continue to shift...what's next? If you don't head towards racial self-management, and self-governance, what of some kind of self-management, like some kind of socialism? well, then you'd be Europeanizing...on the other hand, if Europe continues against this postnationalist end and the supranationalist union of the EU is superseded by economic dread, then they end up Americanizing: which just goes to the overall point. Eventually, you will have to make a decision. And you might choose to become "anarcho-capitalist" in the endeavor against the "globalized world": for the economies sake, mind you, not your "culture", not Tradition, certainly, but some "new thing" altogether...will it trend towards national socialism, or socialism? or a will you go from American representative democracy to merely monarchy, or fascism [you do know Mussolini was a socialist before he was a so-called "fascist", right? and that is all the same reaction and response to the liberalized civil society [internationale], or what in Ancient Rome would've been called the socius]? See the thing is you're gonna have to make a choice, and it'll eventually be made for material reasons...either economic or because literally techno-capitalists are driving technology so automatic and bizarre that you'll be spiritually striving to defeat them for the fact of your culture [which is the material side to the race, that is the spiritual self, or Selbst, if you want]. You'll have to choose.

  9492.  ecky1965  Indeed ...you know nothing about our way of life in Europe You haven't indicated how so. How's that socialising working out in Venezuela or any other country stupid enough to get involved with it...... Now you are just making strawman arguments. Strange how eastern European countries who were once under the shackles of Marxism are now the most conservative states in the union Not really...because that is why the Soviets did what they did. If the KGB saw your comments [which, let's face it, they have some on the inside, but I can't say for sure, and thank God for that, I wouldn't know shit, and / or which Five Eyes state agency, but no shit Sherlock is all I got to say]...if they saw your comment they'd laugh at your misapprehension. The Soviet Union, was never about your Americanized ideal "freedom to" pioneering the "new world order", eventually: but it was a "freedom from" the necessity to compartmentalize with the Americans and abroad, so that they could self-sustain their own economies. Now, I'm sure most of the KGB are not only retired but also of a change of heart, so I'm not trying to insinuate Russia. Things change. But you literally know nothing, apparently, so you shouldn't talk. Why did the Soviet state grow? because it had to, that was it's motive. To self-sustain. The idea was put thru the Bolshevik strainer, if you will, but it became as it did, the Soviet Union [which I'm sure you know nothing of de-Stalinization, but whatever]. China is a different story altogether, but Europe under the Soviet 'oppression' was simply a strategy and tactic for what the Germans would call, in their decisive action, 'lebensraum': the major hindrance to America's own is the notion of 'democracy', which is built right into it's national fabric: representation in a democratic fashion [by election, and vote]. The notion is that this can be cheated...ahhh, back to the crux of the issue, you problem with state controls...well, who likes them? I don't. But you know, I'm Americanized.

  9529. Narods & nations alike proffer from conquet and disaster and migration - hence why you see what you see now. It is foisted by our "owners", to speak bluntly. -- Narods [races with the thinnest connection to the ethnos and previous koineme (common language), ie, original passionarity of the races] exist solely because of the aforementioned things, whether by hook or by crook [by allowing such things or providing for such things]. Nations are just the tool of the civil society [ie, liberalism and in it's newest most global form neoliberalism (somewhat after the era of 1st wave Marxism and during and successively after the world wars and the cold war and as you can see it's still going on now) the platform and foundation for world federalism and the oncoming socium [see: socius, Rome] - See, Rome never died, you know. But hey, don't take my word for it, just look at yourselves. In the mirror. What is more likely, a world government through leftism or a world government through reaction- oh wait, both are just as likely outcomes. But who controls who, and how many of the populace can be allowed any station in either the socium or the empire? who can say....The ethnos [the ethnocentrum, sans passionarity, eg, 'not missionary'- the "tribe" ne plus ultra (qua the agrarian central river quadrant of the first primitive hunter-gatherers, before the nomadic tribes of the narods) is the shaman and the chieftain, and warriors, and peasants (before merchants) -- this is before passionarity leads to the nomadic and missionary levels {viz. religion as well} (and following the civil society, the philosopher-hero, artist-hero, etc), there you have only the shaman to coordinate and banish the 'New' from the 'ethnocentrum' (completing Lack with Abundance), to incorporate new elements into the ethnocentrum and ethnodynamics of the centrum. Then enter 'ethnokinesthetics', the chieftain wants to explore and gather more resources- the beginnings of slave labor can be seen here as humans replace steer in implementation (also the beginnings of proto-kings and proto-queens {& proto-princes, etc} and the 'shaman-hero', to preserve the ethnocentrum from such 'movement' as to push towards passionarity, which breaks the ethnocentrum and leaves it open, wide open -- as you can see].

  9670. No. Any actual leftism is anti-authoritarian, and is pro-self management. Right-wing thought entails hierarchy and "nationalism" [a nation-state]. Styx is, as usual, wrong, here; and he is just spouting Americanised bullshit about "leftism", because he's "right"-wing libertarian [a capitalist], which doesn't actually ascribe to actual right-wing thought [reactionaries, fascism, national socialism, monarchism, aristocracy, et al.]. Left-wing thought is all oriented around "liberating" from these things. What Styx thinks that the left does the opposite, which is actually not true. It is the "right"-wing [capitalists] who confuse the left-wing notion of liberty, with the right-wing notion of hierarchy [hence, authoritarianism, totalitarianism, synarchy]. This is confusion. The capitalists [the "right"-wing; Americanised populists notions of "centrist"-right (minimal state, supposedly) and a "far-right" (whom actually ascribe to fascism and national socialism, yet no fairly little about it's fundaments and it's reality, outside of the Americanised notion, within the European sphere), whom confused "capitalism" from anything but "elitism", and claim that the "elites" are "leftist", even though they are regarded as conforming to what is considered "anti-establishment"; from this the "capitalists" claim that "crony capitalism" is "leftism", because the "left" [liberals] are conveniently conflated with the 'far-left', when clearly both the 'far-left' and the 'far-right' are anti-establishment; only the 'far-right' are actually proponents of an ethnostate, completely out of line with American, so-called, values. The capitalists have made civil society what it is thru "progress", but not only that, "colonialism", oppression, exploitation, growth and expansion, across the every ocean. It's the capitalists who made everyone established in a central composition of nation-states which all vie for their own elite status, which is reflected not mostly in the people of the nation, the lower-classes, but instead, the immensely influential [eg. stars and starlets, big-wigs, politicians with monied interests at their speaking gigs, and behind closed doors, etc.], the "elite". The "social contract" assures this rote paradigm. Styx is a liar, or is severely confused, or delusional.

  9911. Red LOL. What now when I [funnily, right?] tell you that I'm not "red" [whatever that means: I'm sure you think that's clever or something...reds under the bed...it's highly unoriginal...see Styx's earlier videos, before the leak of the Kindergarten Satanist Club bullshit, when he decided that "reds under the bed" sounds better than "satanists under the bed". But alas, no. Not a "red". Communism is an eschatology. Nothing more. Orthodox marxists [insurrectionist/"revolutionaries"] misapprehend classical marxism, anyway. But that's neither here nor there [you're probably clueless on the difference]. And Marx excoriated "crude communism" as well, the envious notion of "state communism". But again, that's neither here nor there- it should just be pointed out that while I have a greater comprehension of Marxian theory than you, that doesn't make me a "red" either. Crude communism is warned against because it's nasty. It's vindictive. So...yeah. I wouldn't say I'm anticapitalism either, just anti-crony capitalist [like Marx was]...wholeheartedly, I believe [like Marx did] that capitalism was the only way to accrue the technology and the infrastructure needed to support the masses; but alas, that the masses are abused [by powers that govern them] is, well, part and parcel to pretty much all Marxist theory, and all reactionary theory, as well. There are even fascists whom incorporate marxian theory into their manifest SOP for their groups. This is all to highlight how multivarious the facets are, in theory, of political ends that need to be addressed, and even on "the right-wing", where people slowly are proletarianizing or equally turning reactionary [which is what led to Soviet communism, the reactionary mode of revolution, to usurp the state, as opposed to abolishing it]. Now since I'm not "antistate" I can't be a communist, but alas, I see that communism, in theory, and in practice, is an eschatology, and hypothetical "end-point" to civilization based on a psychological and sociological reading on economies and social cycles. You probably don't fathom this. But again, alas, it's to point out how complex the situation is: so again, can't really be "red", here, "bud". As the linker-Faschismus rapidly facisizes, the tensions will rise, another clash will ensue, but I won't be there. I'm not stupid enough to get involved with such confusions.

  10065. Any Rand predicted Something long predicted by the original accelerationist, Marx. Class struggle is tantamount with "bio-power"; just differentiated by the aspect of a back of "biology", in Marxism, which is probably to it's fault, seeing as it's totally structural and yet also eschatological, and sociological, as well, and logical, and ultrarational (which is way it makes for such virtual-fodder, and complicates things as much as it set the tone for not only totalitarianism in it's abstract, with the absolutising fascists, and national socialist Germany, in it's reflection), and also gave way to some actually 'decent' social institutions like the "minimum wage" and eventually the "pension fund" [securities bonds, which is a hijack]. You should realise as an occulturalist, Styx, that Ayn Rand predicted something any anthropologist worth his salt could have predicted, and/or any historian worth his salt. Ayn Rand is of a certain "tradition" but this "tradition" had read Marx and had to read Marx [as did everyone else at that point in history]. Hayek, remember, an admiring savant, mind you, helped to fund the juntas in Chile via the Mont Pelerin Society. Recall what happened then...and how the homogeneous [for all intents and purposes] Chile went from pure anarcho-capitalist funded idealism, at-bottom, to a socialism, and most successful one...begs the question, why is it one of the sum few states successfully "socialised"? because it's social ends that needs be met, not social needs of any other sort, not social causes, and not social patterns, necessarily, but social ends — outside "self-reliant" organisation — that is unless one wishes to see the other end of rocking "spirit" thru the wake of history — unless of course one wants to see the rise of corporatism. In the end, it is a choice between state-management, and state-worship [after the nation worship], or a self-management and a racial [or civic national, for America] deviation, at least for the mean time, and then, orient to socialism: that's the best anyone can hope to achieve.

  10069. @That grey area No, but you are an idiot, "boyo". There isn't any fantasizing in my comment. You are just an idiot. You don't know what the concept of theory is. You don't know what the concept of hypothesis is. You don't know what a political ethos is, actually; you think it's a system, but a "system" pertains to states, laws, rules, SYSTEMS...you don't like systems, but you conflate systems with ETHOS. Political science is made up of both, moron. This is why you are an idiot. Also, you're an idiotes, too. I mean ἰδιώτης, Greek for "private citizen": that is, one who doesn't partake in city life [or politics] and hence is an outlier. That is what all you morons want for yourselves, all at once begging for self-management: well, the state isn't giving it to you, because you haven't, at-bottom, risen up, and subjected the state to your abjuring of positive law from customary ethos. You do not comprehend even the words that are coming out of my mouth. Because you are an idiot. But this is just a fact. Or, if you can comprehend it, and I'm just projecting [wink, wink], and wrong about your lack of ability to apprehend concepts: then the insuperable fact is that you just don't want it. You don't want to rise up and take what is "yours". You are too fragmented. Too atomized. No social ends that anyone can agree on because the ideogram which fosters your security in ideology restrains you from actually making a collective effort against global capital: all that you get is more of the same, and more and more, and get told to wait, and you wait, and nothing changes...have fun with that.

  10071. ​@That grey area America, with unique characteristics that actually make socialism its anti thesis. We have evolved past the antique that is socialism but socialism, like all things irrelevant, keeps trying to force its way, to make itself relevant. However it can never be relevant again because the only way it can even become part of a modern western society, is through trickery and force -- LOL, no. America hasn't that many unique characteristics. The fascists wanted a "return back" to Rome. America is just Rome version 2.0. It's a republic fell to empire pretty quickly, and it wasn't "The left" that did it, it was early presidents that did that [no argument can really be had here]. The left just developed out of that; see the Kennedy era. You are not unique in terms of socialism. That is because you are in wont of self-management and control of the state [that is, you do not want state-management and corporatist structure]. This is had with socialism. It's called national socialism. You people just don't want to call it what it is. You want, at-bottom [the nation, the race] to take control and you presume to pertain to the self-management of your nation [collectively, as a group action] thru the state which you control [you the people]. That's what you want. It's all conflation. Especially considering linker-fachismus [leftist-fascism], in America; ANTIFA, who don't even fight fascist groups, per se, but fight their for corporations, in the long run, by vying for people like Bernie Sanders. The irony is rich.

  10097. ​ @katerinatheantired  Stopped That's a relative term. People want to see "the left" get theirs, "the left" is the "enemy". Whether you want certain criminals "stopped" or not, that's not the main preempting, here. The autonomous zone, in it's making, is akin to the taking of a federal building by "boogaloo" types, like in Oregon. When these people do this, these "boogaloo" types, you will cheer. All the same. What you mean by "stopping criminals" is one thing...what the collective "right-wing" [and actual right-wing reactionaries, fascists and national socialist] means by "stopping the left" [which is always conflated with criminality, in toto], is to totally stop them, stultify them, foist them into action, and then ultimately kill "perpetrators", when things "get bad enough" [things are pushed far enough]. All the while you all are the "left" now..."right-wing" [capitalists] people claim fascists and national socialists are "leftist" now [even though reactionaries even in the modern form are always right-wing, by definition], and yet, also claim to be "the masses against the elite" [volkishness], and also claim to be anti-corporate monopoly [but yet engender the corporation of the US Federal Body's institution with more and more power, which concentrates more power into these monopolies, which you will call "left", but are just drives of capital flows], you also claim to be anti-state, but yet you can't make way for your own autonomy or self-management. You are a walking contradiction.

  10120. I'm starting to see a clearer picture here. People complain about "corporate socialism", and I can see why. But here's the thing: clearly any kind of socialism works better than capitalism in regards to social projects, social endeavor, and in regards to nationalistic endeavor - there is literally no excuse to be against it as a so-called "conservative". The entire thing is a lie. American "conservatives" preach against socialism, yet, in every way, they are given a better productivity - and what's more, at-bottom, these "conservatives" want and need social ends to be meet in order for them to be pleased [yet, they just do not realise this]. These "conservatives", alot of them are "Christian": they preach to "care only for Christians" and just "screw everyone else", screw civil society, screw it all, it's all for them only...the Vatican doesn't even purport to believe stuff like that, anymore, but that doesn't stop the American "Christian". They are socialist in the worst possible sense of the term...they only care about THEIR OWN, and that's it...like the nasis, they only care about their "racial" society, those ends which pertain to THEIR OWN SOCIAL GROUPS, and "SCREW EVERYONE ELSE". BUT YET! Yet they keep trying to promulgate this praise for "Capitalism", which they claim has been usurped by "cronies", so they claim to "hate socialism", yet they don't realise that it is capitalist and CAPITAL ENDS which have driven all roads to Rome, NOT "leftists". And they claim now, in some circles, that "fascism" and "national socialism" are "leftism" and only "leftism". They don't understand that civil society was opened up by the "classical liberal", either. Notice that one thing is consistent here...America. America is a walking/talking contradiction. There IS NO "right-wing" in America...just populists who conflate national socialism with leftist, and then claim that their nationalism and socialism [their "Christian" or "western" driven society, ONLY] isn't exactly national socialism [because they don't hold to or understand any racist "theory", they only pertain to racist ideas that have no backing in any sense, none at all, it's pure malice and instinct]. There IS NO "conservatism" in America, in these circles [what are they "conserving" when it is what they praise that got their country to where it is, that is, to a place "they can't accept". Well, it's just the thing...they are so supremely abject and/or confused that it doesn't matter...rhyme or reason doesn't matter with these people].
