The common thread between these epople.

2018-09-20 13:39:23 UTC

He's right when he says privacy belongs to the people and transparency belongs to the government. Currently it's completely reversed.

2018-09-20 13:39:36 UTC

They are doing this activist work for DSA and breaking rules for the DSA.

2018-09-20 13:40:19 UTC

Maybe it is time to declare the DSA domestic threat.

2018-09-20 13:40:39 UTC

I wonder what percentage of DSA government workers abuse their position. Would not surprise me if it was the vast majority.

2018-09-20 13:40:56 UTC

There should be something done about it.

2018-09-20 13:41:11 UTC

DSA is actively trying to stage a coup.

2018-09-20 13:41:40 UTC

It's the KGB defectors warning in action.

2018-09-20 13:41:46 UTC

Okay. I admit it, Democrats are better than the DSA which is radical threat.

2018-09-20 13:42:03 UTC

DSA needs to be taken down.

2018-09-20 13:45:16 UTC

now that you mention it. I wonder how many DSA people are in the democratic party. Their presence would explain why they've fallen for Id. pol.

2018-09-20 13:45:46 UTC

As well as activist bureaucrats (and really worryingly) activist legal professionals

2018-09-20 13:47:18 UTC

I think most if not all DSA members are part of the Democratic party.

2018-09-20 13:47:32 UTC

But once they get into power they will change the party.

2018-09-20 13:48:13 UTC

The non DSA democrats are just being useful idiots for the socialists.

2018-09-20 13:49:24 UTC

Sounds about right.

2018-09-20 13:49:59 UTC

DSA is scheming their way to power through the Democratic party, that is why they went from Socialist Party of America to Democrat Socialist of America.

2018-09-20 13:50:55 UTC

They are currently undermining the current administrating and position to control Democrats, that is why we are seeing old Democrats being replaced by new Democrats that can be controlled by the DSA.

2018-09-20 13:51:15 UTC

They are piggy back riding off the Democrats name to gain more power.

2018-09-20 13:51:42 UTC

Republicans and Conservatives should take them serious, they should also work with Democrats who are resisting the DSA.

2018-09-20 13:53:43 UTC

That also explains the rise of Identity politics, political correctness, censorship, deplatforming, and violence.

2018-09-20 13:56:38 UTC

Reps should do absolutely nothing about the DSA

All the DSA will do is split the Dems,

And if the Dems become too small, all the Dems who don't like socialism will move to the Reps, cuz the overwhelming amount of Americans will rather be Rep than Socialist

2018-09-20 13:58:11 UTC

@Timcast why not both? Dont buy it and vocalize the reason for you not buying it to draw attention to the primary factor. Companies dont know why you didn't buy something

2018-09-20 13:58:41 UTC

See also: Capcom and others killing off beloved franchises because they tried to turn an entry into a pseudo-spinoff and it didnt do well

2018-09-20 14:03:04 UTC

Depends with how much dems in general care about their color being on the US map. So many level headed people just tossing wisdom out the window because ORANGE MAN BAD. DAE DRUMPF HUEHUEHUE

2018-09-20 14:04:25 UTC

The '16 election was disappointing to me. THIIIIS close to seeing things.were getting whack. Buuut nope They're triple-downing till the cows come home.

2018-09-20 14:05:05 UTC

they've dug their holes too far down, all they can do now is dig it deeper

2018-09-20 14:06:29 UTC

all they have left after the uninformed voters, is loyalists, leftists and partizan voters,

If they come out and admit they were wrong, and lying to them, they'd lose the uninformed voters, which is the large chunk that votes for them

2018-09-20 14:07:05 UTC

the leftists are bleeding to the DSA already, and the desperation for muh-russia, and other nonsense issues is a ticking timebomb, with more and more people wondering "why isn't anything happening?"

2018-09-20 14:07:06 UTC

This is the problem with wrongdoing.

2018-09-20 14:07:06 UTC

You got a bunch of slaves who value their chains

2018-09-20 14:07:13 UTC

It's almost preferable to continue than to apologize.

2018-09-20 14:07:27 UTC

This is a big unspoken problem that I think proper UBI could address.

2018-09-20 14:07:39 UTC

Being able to actually quit, without IMMINENTLY STARVING TO DEATH

2018-09-20 14:07:58 UTC

UBI is undoable, its mathematically impossible to achieve

2018-09-20 14:08:04 UTC

Because how many people do we have doing BAD JOBS in important places because they're not allowed to apologize?

2018-09-20 14:08:13 UTC

--Okay but how shitty is this current system? Holy fuck.

2018-09-20 14:08:31 UTC

So many people lying to themselves, making up false work to do, or actively impeding progress.

2018-09-20 14:08:48 UTC

This is mathematical solvent system? **Really?**

2018-09-20 14:08:58 UTC

The 2008 crash disagrees.

2018-09-20 14:09:04 UTC

Lets return to the topic

2018-09-20 14:09:13 UTC

Its a hole dug too deep

2018-09-20 14:09:29 UTC

and too greedily

2018-09-20 14:09:33 UTC

I dont think they are capable of surviving

2018-09-20 14:09:41 UTC

Reveal all this and then theres nothing

2018-09-20 14:10:03 UTC

Us asking them to knock it off is basically asking them to pick up a knife and cut their throats.

2018-09-20 14:10:26 UTC

It may seem like a footnote to us, but to them, there's nothing more important than holding onto this corruption for dear life.

2018-09-20 14:10:38 UTC

"Would you just STOP LYING?"
"I CAN'T."

2018-09-20 14:10:41 UTC

I only hope history wil lrecord this

2018-09-20 14:10:58 UTC

This should be something for people in the future to learn from, if.. there is any history

2018-09-20 14:11:22 UTC

If it continues like this for much longer we're going to have irreparable problems.

2018-09-20 14:11:28 UTC

Fuckin' boomers.

2018-09-20 14:11:34 UTC

we already have irreparable problems

2018-09-20 14:11:42 UTC

Its now millenials who have the problem?

2018-09-20 14:11:42 UTC

๐Ÿ˜

2018-09-20 14:12:00 UTC

I mean, we have a bunch of far leftists in govt and education

2018-09-20 14:12:06 UTC

Thats a self perpetuating problem

2018-09-20 14:12:11 UTC

Millennials are the minority of those in power.

2018-09-20 14:12:18 UTC

YOu generate people who provide nothing to society

2018-09-20 14:12:22 UTC

So all they do is teach

2018-09-20 14:12:27 UTC

Spreading those ideas.

2018-09-20 14:12:43 UTC

Teaching is becoming a bit antiquated.

2018-09-20 14:12:57 UTC

The education system is antiquated.

2018-09-20 14:12:57 UTC

Like, education as we know it hasn't changed in the slightest since the internet was born.

2018-09-20 14:13:04 UTC

That should be impossible.

2018-09-20 14:13:05 UTC

And their attempt to modernzie it only made it worse

2018-09-20 14:13:10 UTC

"Oh, we're fine. Nothing to be improved here."

2018-09-20 14:13:13 UTC

uhhhhhh...?

2018-09-20 14:13:27 UTC

Look, they created common core to collectivise the grading system

2018-09-20 14:13:57 UTC

its education, and the culture that accompanies it

People are basically told that if you get a degree, you're an upper person, regardless of how good you are, or how qualified your degree is

2018-09-20 14:14:08 UTC

And oft the way teaching is done can easily be based on bad science or info

2018-09-20 14:14:27 UTC

fkr instance. Lots of places did away with phonics in the US

2018-09-20 14:14:36 UTC

reading scores.dropped like a rock.

2018-09-20 14:14:37 UTC

they're not taught that the ones who get furthest in life are the ones who self-taught, who worked at it, who made it happen themselves

2018-09-20 14:14:48 UTC

Cursive was perhaps the biggest waste of time that I can recall.

2018-09-20 14:14:56 UTC

Algebra has its use because it gets you thinking.

2018-09-20 14:15:06 UTC

But cursive? What the fuck was the point of me learning that?

2018-09-20 14:15:09 UTC

Or in other words.

2018-09-20 14:15:10 UTC

If you defend it, you're wrong.

2018-09-20 14:15:22 UTC

Universities are just like schools

2018-09-20 14:15:24 UTC

Cursive is there to write in an important accent

2018-09-20 14:15:25 UTC

๐Ÿ˜›

2018-09-20 14:15:29 UTC

It provides a baseline

2018-09-20 14:15:38 UTC

Universities ARE schools

2018-09-20 14:15:43 UTC

Some places are seeing that was a mistake and their rates of stud. literacy are skyrocketing. And the kicker, there was plenty of scientific support for teaching reading through phonics

2018-09-20 14:15:53 UTC

If all kids go to school, you can be sure every kid will be as smart as a specific level

2018-09-20 14:15:56 UTC

High schools should teach taxes.

2018-09-20 14:16:05 UTC

They should teach economics

2018-09-20 14:16:10 UTC

"They do though. Mine did" WELL MINE DIDN'T.

2018-09-20 14:16:11 UTC

Should help with the commies

2018-09-20 14:16:17 UTC

If there are some that DON'T, there's a huge fucking problem.

2018-09-20 14:16:19 UTC

Schools aren't teaching you to learn things, they're teaching you to complete Tests

Theres your problem

2018-09-20 14:16:42 UTC

I was so lost for so long what taxes really are.

2018-09-20 14:17:26 UTC

To be fair, If school doesn't teach those things, parents/guardians should

And since the schools don't, the parents/guardians should ๐Ÿ˜›

2018-09-20 14:17:50 UTC

theres only so much you can blame on "the system" and "outer people"

2018-09-20 14:17:56 UTC

The schools did a good job and pushing parenting to the goverment

2018-09-20 14:18:02 UTC

a huge chunk of the western decline is poor parenting

2018-09-20 14:18:06 UTC

Parents dont raise kids anymore

2018-09-20 14:18:12 UTC

Its government institutions

2018-09-20 14:18:36 UTC

yeah. eitger from laziness or parental absence

2018-09-20 14:18:49 UTC

sooooo many single parents its not even funny

2018-09-20 14:18:58 UTC

its all about "Someone else should"

"I can't talk to my children about sex, someone else should"
"I can't talk to my children about basic skillsets, someone else should"

2018-09-20 14:19:04 UTC

Games

2018-09-20 14:19:15 UTC

Parents often don't have time to raise kids.

2018-09-20 14:19:18 UTC

Two incomes.

2018-09-20 14:19:21 UTC

Social media is a problem too

2018-09-20 14:19:21 UTC

Daycare.

2018-09-20 14:19:35 UTC

You need a stay at home parent.

2018-09-20 14:19:41 UTC

Because the economy has adjusted to both parents working

2018-09-20 14:19:54 UTC

Most of this proactive shit can't be done without at least one parent at home.

2018-09-20 14:19:57 UTC

Kids spend their days talking in discord about how bad boomers and such are,

Instead of doing out and doing stuff,
Helping a hand in the community, mowing lawn, getting a small-time job for extra money,
Learning a trade

2018-09-20 14:20:02 UTC

Like us?

2018-09-20 14:20:07 UTC

yes

2018-09-20 14:20:14 UTC

```Helping a hand in the community, mowing lawn, getting a small-time job for extra money,```
Immigrants.

2018-09-20 14:20:16 UTC

Pretty much

2018-09-20 14:20:22 UTC

To be honest.

2018-09-20 14:20:24 UTC

Im in that boat.

2018-09-20 14:20:34 UTC

All I do is tend to my very tiny buisness.

2018-09-20 14:20:43 UTC

You have to pay those immigrants, you can also save money and do the work yourself

2018-09-20 14:20:47 UTC

or family nearby. Which just isnt as likely anymore with how oftwn familiez will move for work

2018-09-20 14:20:59 UTC

Only because I can count on my massive chinese family to help if I screw up

2018-09-20 14:21:00 UTC

```Learning a trade```
This costs too much money to just go out and do on a whim.

2018-09-20 14:21:18 UTC

you dont need a single cent more than what you currently spend on LEARNING a trade

2018-09-20 14:21:27 UTC

???

2018-09-20 14:21:34 UTC

Then which trades are you talking about.

2018-09-20 14:21:48 UTC

I think he means apprenticeships?

2018-09-20 14:22:02 UTC

you have access to the internet, you can learn to program, the single greatest trade there is,

Youtube videos on how to do stuff,

Hell singing can even be a trade if you get good at it

2018-09-20 14:22:02 UTC

I am 30 and never got out much as a kid :-/

2018-09-20 14:22:07 UTC

well, good thing Im not a kid lol. I do try to help in the communitt when I can.

2018-09-20 14:22:07 UTC

That becomes a matter of luck.

2018-09-20 14:22:15 UTC

You'd better hope apprenticeships are a thing.

2018-09-20 14:22:18 UTC

You need opportunity

2018-09-20 14:22:24 UTC

That's something they have to decide they're doing.

2018-09-20 14:22:25 UTC

I think alot of people have it in them to do good

2018-09-20 14:22:32 UTC

Just that the opportunity dosent show

2018-09-20 14:22:42 UTC

"We only accept interns from accredited schools!"

2018-09-20 14:22:46 UTC

... Why? Oh well.

2018-09-20 14:22:52 UTC

That's the end of that.

2018-09-20 14:23:14 UTC

apprentices and internships aren't a free trade you can learn

2018-09-20 14:23:17 UTC

Complain about boomers is to spread awareness about how much they've ruined.

2018-09-20 14:23:21 UTC

The first step to change, is awareness.

2018-09-20 14:23:23 UTC

@Joe_Limon Yeah. I was one of those kids that I just stuck indoors most of the time..Mom didnt care as longad I didnt bug here. Anything shed have to do related to kid things was a bother

2018-09-20 14:23:34 UTC

So stop acting like complaining is doing nothing. It's raising the temperature where it's valid.

2018-09-20 14:23:36 UTC

actually the first step is admitting there is one

2018-09-20 14:23:54 UTC

If a person is complaining about something that makes no sense, yes, throw it back in their face.

2018-09-20 14:24:07 UTC

But if a person is right? What are you doing telling them to stop? They can't do it alone.

2018-09-20 14:24:19 UTC

Everyone who is affected by the "shitty period made by boomers" is alraedy aware of it, you don't need MORE awareness, you need to start working on a fix, instead of ranting on the internet about how bad you ahve it

2018-09-20 14:24:38 UTC

Pardon me but a lot of people aren't aware of it.

2018-09-20 14:24:44 UTC

Like how big an issue daycare is.

2018-09-20 14:24:48 UTC

FUCK. DAYCARE.

2018-09-20 14:24:53 UTC

Me zoomer

2018-09-20 14:24:57 UTC

FUCK DAYCARE IN THE ASS.

2018-09-20 14:25:02 UTC

Me play rocknite

2018-09-20 14:25:04 UTC

Also call me sexist or anything

2018-09-20 14:25:25 UTC

But how about less interest in raising families?

2018-09-20 14:25:28 UTC

you talk like one of those people who spends all their salary on smoking cigarettes, and then complains they don't have any money

2018-09-20 14:25:48 UTC

Rockashi my favorite rapper

2018-09-20 14:25:49 UTC

There is a time n' place for venting, but definitely I think one should try doing something if they keep complaining. That gets into self pity territory otherwise

2018-09-20 14:26:19 UTC

Very few people are in the proximity to do what needs to be done.

2018-09-20 14:26:33 UTC

Very few people were capable of suing Gawker to the point of destroying it.

2018-09-20 14:26:43 UTC

It already has turned to self pity, this whole "Muh Boomers ruined it for us" is a cry for self-pity

Whats done is done, now its time to fix it instead of sitting and yelling that since its their fault they should fix it.

Life isn't that helpful

2018-09-20 14:26:50 UTC

I think the logic behind the idea that parents don't spend enough time with their lids to be proper parents and this is why ppl are messed up is wrong. It is not the kids who were left to their own devices and got into trouble that are the issue. It is the kids who were not given the freedom to become their own person who can take responsibility for their actions.

2018-09-20 14:26:53 UTC

Wol can just go shut the fuck up, can't he.

2018-09-20 14:27:03 UTC

2018-09-20 14:27:22 UTC

2018-09-20 14:27:24 UTC

They should.

2018-09-20 14:27:30 UTC

And as long as they draw a breath, they should.

2018-09-20 14:27:35 UTC

well they're not gonna, so what now? we al just sit in misery?

2018-09-20 14:27:42 UTC

"Yeah but they're not" continue putting their feet to the fire you cuckold.

2018-09-20 14:28:01 UTC

Oh so you're just going to let them no longer get any shit for what they've done?

2018-09-20 14:28:09 UTC

"Hey man I stole your money but that was a week ago. Let it go.."

2018-09-20 14:28:17 UTC

"Oh. Well. Alright"

2018-09-20 14:28:23 UTC

No. Justice has not been done. Never let it go.

2018-09-20 14:28:24 UTC

Its not solving things at this point, so why would you still rant about it?

2018-09-20 14:28:30 UTC

Because fuck you.

see, this is why I don't care for your problems, you don't want a fix, you just want to get angry

No no no.

2018-09-20 14:31:49 UTC

Your metaphor doesn't do jack shit "Oh someone must fix justice for me"

Navy guy has the right idea, Every fix starts with a first step, not by sitting and ranting

2018-09-20 14:32:03 UTC

"For me"

2018-09-20 14:32:08 UTC

Now, why did you type that in there?

2018-09-20 14:32:16 UTC

Seems silly

2018-09-20 14:32:40 UTC

I'm not blaming millenials, Boomers did do the bad, yes, life can be cruel

work for a fix instead of trying to persuade internet people that boomers be bad and need justice

2018-09-20 14:32:42 UTC

What if the first step is persuasion? Through sitting and ranting?

2018-09-20 14:32:47 UTC

Does a food critic do nothing because he isn't cooking the food?

2018-09-20 14:32:51 UTC

How stupid.

2018-09-20 14:33:08 UTC

Dr.Wol is anti-consumer.

2018-09-20 14:33:11 UTC

What if instead of sitting and ranting youโ€™re standing and shitposting because nothing you read makes sense?

2018-09-20 14:33:45 UTC

I'm very pro consumer, its the life-blood of capitalism

2018-09-20 14:34:00 UTC

You pay it lipservice but who could believe it?

2018-09-20 14:34:07 UTC

Huh?

2018-09-20 14:34:09 UTC

Everything you've said here has been the opposite.

2018-09-20 14:34:37 UTC

explain how, i've done nothing but say "work for a fix, instead of sitting and crying about it, cuz no one will care about your cries that way"

2018-09-20 14:35:11 UTC

This is a connected age.

2018-09-20 14:35:19 UTC

Information spreads this way.

2018-09-20 14:35:34 UTC

To call this doing nothing is pants on head retarded.

2018-09-20 14:35:41 UTC

Is it because capitalism is self correcting? And actively working to reduce the harm of it is undermining it?

2018-09-20 14:36:23 UTC

So how much closer to a solution has your insight on "Boomers are to blame" brought society?

2018-09-20 14:36:36 UTC

That was a terrible question.

2018-09-20 14:36:43 UTC

You should ask a different one.

2018-09-20 14:36:51 UTC

something something, there are no stupid questions ๐Ÿ˜›

2018-09-20 14:36:57 UTC

You learn from mistakes in the past so they do not become repeated

2018-09-20 14:37:00 UTC

That response was also terrible.

2018-09-20 14:37:09 UTC

You should respond differently.

2018-09-20 14:37:21 UTC

not hearing an argument though Scribble, but hey you stopped having a point ages ago too

2018-09-20 14:37:29 UTC

I can see why YOU would think criticism is doing nothing.

2018-09-20 14:37:40 UTC

Because you're too stupid to know how accurate it is.

2018-09-20 14:37:44 UTC

And you'll never change.

2018-09-20 14:37:57 UTC

So, yeah, makes sense. You think criticizing does nothing. Dismissed.

2018-09-20 14:38:34 UTC

I never said it was inaccurate, I agree wholeheartedly that boomers didn't prepare for the world going this way

But sitting here complaining about how terrible it is what they did, without working for a solution on solving their shit, seems like a pretty solid method of "doing nothing" to me

2018-09-20 14:38:58 UTC

The thing though is if it's just criticizing. And if youre criticizing. It should be to people that dont know about it. We know how boomers messed up. Talk to neigjbors, friends, family

2018-09-20 14:39:17 UTC

Boomers don't get complained at enough.

2018-09-20 14:39:24 UTC

Criticizing is part of persuasion. It is needed in order for people to form better opinions.

2018-09-20 14:39:26 UTC

find how those messs ups affect your area. Look into getting involved to fix those.messups

2018-09-20 14:40:02 UTC

The problems are too overarching for it to work like that, Navy.

2018-09-20 14:40:05 UTC

cuz guess what, the people you're criticizing don't care, so criticizing them MORE wont work,

You're like those advocates for more affirmative action

"Affirmative action has proven to not only not help, it causes MORE problems"
"Thats because we haven't done ENOUGH affirmative action yet, we need to pump MORE money into this"

2018-09-20 14:40:27 UTC

This is like when you get told to shake the manager's hand, look him square in the eye, and tell him you're the one for the job.

2018-09-20 14:40:30 UTC

It doesn't WORK that way.

2018-09-20 14:40:34 UTC

Not anymore.

2018-09-20 14:40:48 UTC

These overarxhing issues are made up or a result ofany smallers ones

2018-09-20 14:40:49 UTC

Depends on what your goals are. Trump criticizes the left not to persuade them. But to persuade everyone who is not them.

2018-09-20 14:40:58 UTC

"How do you eat an elephant?"

2018-09-20 14:41:02 UTC

Trump being elected was what could've been done.

2018-09-20 14:41:05 UTC

And it's been done.

2018-09-20 14:41:07 UTC

"One bite at a time"

2018-09-20 14:41:17 UTC

Midterms are the next thing.
