@Abel hes guilty i dont need eveidence

Obviously

Innocent until proven guilty? That's just colonialism tbh

we been knew

I can't for the life of me figure out what smells so good in this room.

It's certainly not me...

@Rabbi Shekels I mean I'm not surprised a furry would say that.

@Beef Taquitos thiose fucking furries they need to be burned

Exactly what a furry would say!

THEY NEED TO YIFF IN HELL REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The world is hell if everyone is guilty until proven innocent.

This just in:
Tommy Poole is a confirmed furry.

Eventually I will corrupt his name into an unrecognizable mess.

ouf

I should tweet that one too tbh

I heard Ford is a pedo

she touches little bois i don't have any evidence or proof but i heard it

someone sent me a letter

anonomously

Autonomously too

Gotta get that AI angle in there

i plan on leaking the letter ............... err i mean keeping it confidential

No, the leak came from the AI

I told you, get that AI angle in there

Plausible deniability

Rooney Mara looks like female Tom Hiddleston 🤔

I heard Corey Booker is a sexual assaulter. Ya know. From his own fucking book.

But that's ok

Now I heard from an anonymous source that Jeff Flake touches puppies in a fursuit which must be true because I can't corroborate it

What the actual fuck even is Kanye anymore?

ye

I can't tell if it's comedy genius or insanity with that stone face

i'd go with comedy genius...more positive

Him and that dude are doing ridiculous costumes and it seems like it's for the memes judging by his retweeting the ones from before

em beef

where is the furry comfirmation you tweeted about?

if tim is a furry i need to know

@Beef Taquitos

hopefully he's not doing the Garfield

@>Cytos, de lieve goede synth he hasn't denied it, and someone said he was. That's all you need these days.

not enough to convince me im afaid

holy shit

better store away my hunting rifle and license i guess

Cum on guize

nah, dats gay

If you can say shit like that and not get raped and murdered for it, are we really living in a rape culture?

Here's the stupidest tweet I've possible seen.

bad job.....

https://ourworldindata.org/a-history-of-global-living-conditions-in-5-charts

Utopian absolutist thinking. The world isn't 100% absolutely perfect therefore everything is a terrible failure. No shades of grey.

Steven pinker has shown a ton of data about this. The world is much better off than ever before

And currently, we have less poverty, less hunger, less suffering than ever before

less suffering? Hmm, kind of depends on how you define that...

Fuck off Jordan peterson

A cop made a bad call once when someone wouldn't comply with instructions and a black man got shot. All cops are evil racists.
One man out of 100,000 commits rape. All men are rapists.
There's a perfect flawless utopia with no suffering or deprivation just over the horizon and if you don get in line with my ideology you're personally preventing that utopia from coming about.

I don't understand. How can you have a utopia without things like hate and suffering. Hate is Love, Love is Hate. And there is no joy without suffering.

That's why the utopia is always kind of nebulous. They want each person to imagine their own version which is perfect to them. If they make the utopia a concrete thing then it wouldn't be utopia to all people.

Even to the person imagining it, after a time.

Anyone trying to sell you utopia is a fool or a liar. Any world inhabited by humans is going to be just as flawed as humans are.

I guess when you start and run countries that ran for hundreds of years you do a bad job

There will always be inequality, violence, hate, injustice, jealously, bias, etc. Always. Anyone who says otherwise is either an idiot or wants their boot on your neck.

Things can get better.

Things have been getting better steadily.

But things will never be perfect.

Only personal perfects

We can’t all have it good

Well we could but it won’t be perfect

Also @Timcast if you think that what we've been doing for the past 100+ years has been working really well and that it shouldn't be radically altered, welcome to conservatism.

And we’d probably all be starving

even those cant be reality,

Perfection is an inspiration, not a goal

Successful civilizations are really, really hard to build and really, really easy to destroy. Therefore anyone advocating extreme, radical divergence from what has been demonstrated to be successful should be viewed with extreme skepticism.

gotta loisence for that knife

...

I'm not a conservative by any means, if something is genuinely better i'm all for it,

But "progress for the sake of progress", or in current year terms "I want to feel good helping people i consider lessers" Is not a good guidebook on improving society

Shit, I got a ton of knives. ..

not like i collect them or anything either, but...

jail

no loisence no knife

only jail

If government cant keep track of how many illegals there are in my country,

I should not be expected to keep track of how many knives are in my house

nah, i live in USA, they'll kill me when they come for my guns.

with their guns

lol then your good

Ya, not entirely sure I agree with people's idea of progress anyway.

progress is when you ALL benefit from it, not just one group

/\

For what time?

for as long as you can keep that society going

i guess? 😛

'Progressive' is a poorly thought out marketing campaign that gained its own life and got away from its creators.
Progress implies movement. Movement away from something and movement towards something. If it's away from something, that something must have already been in existence - probably for a long time. If it's towards something, that something doesn't exist and may not even be real. How will you know when you reach it? What happens to the movement when you do?

It's perpetual revolution that must continually find things to revolt against in order to justify existing.

Progress is going from "Welp i have a splinter in me, guess i'll die" to "aww yiss, i can afford antibiotics and stay alive" 😛

I guess if your goal is to not die and you can afford the means to stay alive...

That's a pretty simple goal these days, if you believe the above charts.

In western nations our poor die of obesity related diseases far, far, far more than starvation.

Not dying is a simple goal?

Hmm...

Yes there are homeless people who die of exposure but that's usually due to substance abuse and not seeking shelter.

Oh, you mean to certain things

well my example is a bit random and oddly specific,

But the idea of "progress" as a society, would mean something that everyone benefits from,

You can't fix inequality, but you can progress society so that the bottom is still going great,
No one would be against helping the bottom up,

The issue is that people want to help the bottom up, by dragging the top down

And then its no longer progress for all

```I can afford antibiotics```
Yeah that's not gonna be a thing for much longer lol

well, you can still afford them, they just stop having use 😛

kind of like a woman outside the kitchen 😉

No I mean the escalation of prices due to insurance, like the >$100 gauze from the hospital etc

true, you americans need to get your medical bill issue together

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/29/Causes_of_death_by_age_group.png

I object to the idea that people are dropping like flies because they can't afford antibiotics.

well that wasn't my point either 😛

The real issue is people going into debt slavery because of medical bills

Well

Not exactly.

My point was that people in the 1700's would die from a splinter due to infection, and now that we can use anti-biotics we can stay alive with it (and cleaner homes) hence we've progressed to a safter society

Have you guys heard of Precision medecine?

There are ways to ameliorate the cost of medical services but the important thing to remember is that ***medical services have a cost that has to be borne by someone***.

There is no free.

So does the military

The antibiotics we now have may just be the cure for the future

There is no free, but theres that issue of inflated prices due to cartel practices, monopoly / thrusts

and the American phrama industry is doing that big-time

We take out loans that will never be repaid to fund the military

I'm so tempted to take a pic of all my knives and tweet at them. what a bunch of cocks.

Recently, it was discovered that a pill previously used for tapeworms shrinks kidney cancer tumours.

We could be declaring a "war on disease" instead of a "war on terror"

welcome to medicine,

"We dont know why it works, but it works, so take two of these and call me in the morning"

@Risotto both are unwinnable wars.

I wrote an article about it

Disease will always exist.

Terrorism will always exist.

Yeah, but what do we get out of a war on terror? Not new medicines or life-extending regimens, just death.

Two wars without an endgame, one has positive knock-on effects one doesn't.

got drones out of it

Hooray, now the drones can smash my shit up when they deliver it

How about instead of taking a trillion dollars in taxes from citizens every year and spending it on a never-ending war, we let the taxpayers keep it.

but that would solve issues

and you cant campaign on solved issues

That's part of what was saying earlier about progressivism. It's perpetual revolution. There always has to be some new fight to justify the existence of the movement.

You can't ever say "things are pretty good".

Everything has to be FUCKING AWFUL.

Tax money isn't enough for single payer, it'd have to involve some sort of quantitative easing or MMT

I'm curious, what is a current progressive goal?

Free post-secondary.

White Extinction

rofl

lol

college being free is progress? Didn't someone define it as something that lifts all of us up?

current Progressive goal is one of the next 3:

- to make sure that everyone is exactly equal
Problem is that the only thing everyone can have equal in abundance is misery

- All for me and none for thee

- I need to cover my past crimes as a sex offender with minors

If I have a college degree and only a few other people have them, that makes me valuable compared to other people. If I have a college degree and everyone has one, that means I'm just the same as everyone else.

I can't demand higher wages.

To be honest I wasn't too hyped about free college but still thought Bernie was way better than Hillary and had a better view on healthcare than Trump

Right, I am not asking for regressive goals labeled progressive, I am asking for actual progressive goals.

And Bernie showed he wasn't a bleeding heart faggot when asked about ICE which is good.

Free college seems to be the real rallying cry right now. As is unlimited open immigration.

Shrink gubment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWXOaH12X5g

there are no actual progressive goals,

Things are pretty solidly stable under normal society, Racism is at an all time low, crime is low, sickness is low

Only thing that can get better is that people would study actual USEFUL degrees and use that to help upgrade society with technological improvement

Yeah fuck the free college people. They want to brainwash centrists.

*SHRINK GUBMENT*

As opposed to every loser picking "Gender studies" or some other degree in knitting, and then wondering why no one hires them and they end up pouring piss-water at starbucks

But you can't say that everything is working well and still have perpetual revolution. Everything MUST be terrible to justify perpetual revolution.

hating society for having cheated them with a useless degree

well there is no such thing as free college, unless we are bringing back slavery...even that has a cost.

and serving the next generation of wankers that take useless degrees

I think certification programs for autodidacts should be funded instead

Exactly @Atkins , thats where we are now, so people are inventing new "terribleness" like wage gaps etc to justify their moral outrage

Also the idea of free college isn't bad, hear me out

I know what you're going to say.

to me is seems most of the actual progressive ideas, are coming from the right.

But this won't be free college to those people who meet the high meritocratic standard, this will be free college for everyone regardless of grades and regardless of market demand for their degree.

It has to be free college for useful degrees though,

If you can get a generation of actual tech-savvy people to fill the void, you dont have to import outsiders,

And their contributions will increase the value of your nations GDP due to technological improvements, meaning everyone starts making better money because you become the powerhouse economy due to having a lot of competition on high-end degrees

abortion, limited government, free trade (not corporatism), etc.

They specifically don't want that.

I'm for easing the crippling burden of student debt but I also think people who've gotted degrees in the insanely corrupted modern liberal arts should have to deal with the consequences of spending their time on something so pointless.

They want free for everyone with no qualifiers.

and thats why i'm against it @Atkins 😛

cuz they're pissing away taxdollars on useless degrees that end up costing us more than they add

I'm fine with like, a President Bernie Sanders saying free college because I don't think he's gonna make it happen from the executive branch

this is why big government is bad,

A corporation can't make bad decisions or they'll go bankrupt and fail

If a Government makes a bad decision, well the taxpayers can just pay for the loss, and you start anew

Sanders is a socialist, he'll make it happen from executive cuz its all central control

A government makes a bad decision and your currency hyperinflates, punishing those who invest and save.

But from the bully pulpit of the POTUS seat, you can say we need to do something about crippling student debt and it becomes part of the mainstream narrative, which is a good thing.

Want to fix student debt? Make it dischargable in bankruptcy proceedings, and allow banks to refuse to issue student loans based on degree and grades.

crippling student debt is all facebook 18-30 year olds talk about,

its already a mainstream narrative, but no one in government cares cuz the Dems see it as a way to get votes,
And the Reps see it as a way of forcing you to keep paying banks

Wew

Dems: You got student debt? okay vote for me and i'll use your own taxpayer money, minus administration fee, to pay you back a small share to help pay it off

Reps: You got student debt? okay vote for me and i'll make sure you can loan a lot more from banks because your economic prospects are higher due to lower taxes, but you'll have to pay back more

Schools: Oh you got more money? Good we can raise prices and hire more school administration and diversity hires for a good reputation

I'm in indentured servitude now because I put myself in debt getting a doctorate in Gender Studies, this system needs to be toppled!

someone hand me my cattle-prod, we gotta bring Neptune back into the waking world 😛

students: might be a good idea to tell schools to fuck off and do my own thing...stick it to the system

Bank: You want us to loan you $100,000 for a degree in Sociology? Are you in the top 0.01% of students? No? Get the fuck out.

Honestly I think high school shouldn't be compulsory, that funding should be moved into technical certifications

Autodidacts like Tim show us the way

in its current quality, i'd agree,

That said, a bit of improvement and High-school teaches you the basics

the basics you could learn in high-school are now easily researched by anyone with a phone

most of the stuff I learned in high-school has been useless...but I was in high-school during a time when you did research in a library

I'd agree, but basics are boring so people don't do them,

Especially children, they need something to compel them to learn a bit else they become leftists

games work

and yes, a LOT of high-school can be scrapped

games are awesome to teach things

Anyone who would actually get something out of high school might as well just be sent straight to community college

i would prolly have done better in school if it was handles like uni from age 12 tbh

I got like 40 something credits in high school

I went to community college for most of my high school time, but it wasn't being "skipped ahead" as such

Well i can't speak for the schools you guys went to, nor American schools in general, i heard its really bad


My highschool was mixed between really useful things and absolute retardation "filling time"

Take technical classes kids

I think if anything they just didn't want to deal with my autism

Get your associates at 19

Minimum

i have a blackbelt in autism, does that count?

Then work work work work

So they just told the community college he's your problem now

Special ed teachers don't want 'em he's too smart

CC is good shit tho

Man, it really is disgusting, the flippant way my close friend views abortion.
She thinks, knowing nothing about biology, that scientists have somehow cracked the code on when an egg, becomes, a foetus, becomes a person; that somehow scientists can tell you when life starts being sacred or not.

Get your first two hella cheap

Then transfer over to a four year

Apparently infanticide is distinct from abortion in her view, she's so certain about that, and it's convenient that it lines up directly with the current legal and political distinction between foetus and person.

What I'm saying is that the American educational system requires you to have some actual agency

As a scientist i actually CAN tell you when life starts being sacred 😉

Heres a clue, it isn't

@Dr.Wol never

yeah, that's the thing.

I wans't actually thriving in CC, I wasn't all that smart or mature, but I had a thing called an IEP that said I graduate after senior year no matter what

damnit! you already got the clue 😛

It's true though

Life is death!

So regardless of the failing grades I got they dumped me out at 18

And death is nothingness!

She seems to at least pay lip service to the idea that lives have inherent value; but thinks she can defer that judgement to the academy.

Well, she's a liar then. Because life doesn't have value

The academy will surely tell the politicians, who will tell her when taking a life should cause a criminal trial.

Not inherently anyways.

My stance is that I'm not pro-choice, I'm anti-coathanger.

Life has the value of your heart,

If you value it, it has value for you,

That doesn't mean i share that value if i dont care

Lol xorgy you crack me up

I don't trust your average person to take out the trash much less decide whether a fetus is a person.

I'm neither honestly, because I don't think I understand the moral calculus going on there.

Which is why honestly the laws in place don't bother me, neither do the ones that were in place in the '70s.

Again

what if someone else values your fetus, as a human life from the perspective of their religion for example

does that someone else rise the kid?

I would tend to favour the answer which causes fewer criminal trials.
