add all the soap leafs
soap leafs deliscious
plum sauce?? is that even good
i'm too white to know flavors
big tasty
go get pho
rn
just throw ketchup at it
hey so any advice for a journalist at a college that is controlled by SJWs?
ketchup is for taters
bring up strong points without look of trying to "fight"
i found out my school president shared public facebook posts about hating white people and showed it to my boss
but my boss said to let it go because we don't "wanna seem like we're saying poor whitey"
๐ฆ
those who want to fight will find you but if its obvious its not a fight for purpose of "fighting" and just a fight of ideas you'll relieve yourself from the extremists (they won't pay attention as quick) and the moderates will side with your existance
wtf ur school sound cray
yeah well
i guess the pacific northwest is far left
you know the funny thing, coming off that hidden tribes paper Tim brought up
hm?
is its rich white people convincing everybody else to hate white people
lol
yeah
no, really i agree
most people aren't really inline with it all but they have sway
i went to a house-show in seattle and talked politics after drinking
big mistake
the people complaining about patriarchy paying tribute to the patriarchy in the most real sense of the word (rich whites progressives in this case)
get this
i explained i was a journalist for a college 30 minutes away from seattle
and i covered topics about equity and shit
then i went into detail about how blacks have a higher rate of violent crime
which is a fact
but i defended them
saying it was because of pop culture and that more of them live in urban areas which have higher rate of crime across the board
these people denied the facts and called me racist
one guy walked up half way in the argument and said "that's a very white male thing to say"
all i can think is to iron clad yourself with citations based off known liberal professors
because there are some decent guys around but you gotta find them
then if people accuse you of being racist explain you got info from people probably more educated or liberal then themselves
yeah i get it
the problem was that i went to a house-show which is a ghetto version of a shitty music studio
also no offense but if i was you i'd try to transfer, sounds like a no win game whatever the college is
where someone turns their house into a studio
i can't
get this too
i wanna go to Evergreen College in Olympia, WA
always wanted to
lo and behold, they became a cesspool of far left madness while I was waiting to go there
I'm a left-leaning independent
and I was fucking furious over their riots
Evergreen seems like a good college as long as you keep away from the politics
yeah
I know I'd have to keep my fuckin mouth shut
The system itself is great, and the campus looks beautiful
it is
Its just the retarded faculty and students
surrounded by many acres of trees
pass/fail system, project-oriented
There's no grades, narrative reports
i was so fucking mad when the riots broke out
Seems to have calmed down now tbh
I hope so
anyone here deal with workplace cliques?
my journalist team at my college is so cliquey, it's nauseating
in-jokes and passive aggressiveness
and the one other new guy who doesn't get it
keeps trying to joke with them, 20 times now, every time they are silent and ignore him
whatever band said highschool never ends was right
if most adults have highschool degrees, or just past highschool, it's really all the same mental level
the difference is how dedicated you were to having a rank. the mental acuity is the same on average, I think
that's why there are teachers who are embarrassed by students who go on to basically fuck up
standardized testing is a joke.
the masses look up to people who memorize things better than others, but they're worse at critical thinking.
they are memorizing facts without knowing how they got to that point.
it's like if we had a class on Star Trek.
the people who question plot holes fail.
the people who memorize what happened pass
it's just ironic in my opinion
we criticize critical thinkers because most of what we think is true is HOLY AND SANCTIFIED BY OUR LORD FACTS
yet most of those facts are just agreed-upon opinions or narratives
so much fucking horseshit
Imagine 500 years of newspapers where everyone just wrote what they were told to write because they wouldn't make any money otherwise
extend that to 2000 years
hell, even say that if they didn't write what they were told to write, they'd be burned at the stake and their wife would be raped and murdered along with their children
i mean come on
But hey I'm a crazy conspiracy theorist
don't listen to the guy with logic
@Gilgamesh the HS thing is something you have to test people for
it does live on, it does not completely die off, but it does die down in many people
and finding ones who aware of its follys goes a long way
the critical thinking vs memorization thing is a different and larger concept which i don't know when it can be addressed
but you see atleast a reasonable amount of academics who admit to being aware of it
besides his views on agnostic>atheist that was one area i really like niel degrasse tyson for, he talked about that subject a lot. he couldn't answer for a solution to it but admitted its a thing. part in problem the system is devised to test off memory, so be it, what can one do. ideally in the real world it does matter more but opportunities don't always come the way of the problem solvers
dafuq did i return to
Boobs and Dicks
nice
People are lacking critical thinking.
And now days education is trying to suppress that critical thinking, and promoting "just remember facts we taught you" and stop thinking.
exactly
"We don't teach you HOW to think, we teach you WHAT to think"
