I don't know I called rifles fully semi-automatic bolt-action rifles
I know one journalist that said that
I take that back what they actually said was a fully semi-automatic assault rifle in the picture that you showed was a bolt action rifle
US society is interesting. Whites are losing their jobs, while other races are permited to be racist and homofobic as they please. The problem begins when it starts to show between 2 minorities. If there will be real racist fight it will happened between latino and blacks. I see it a lot on You tube
All of these typos are due to Google speech to text sorry for all these weird word errors
specially now when illigal immigration is a problem
asians aren't even counted as a minority anymore even though they are vastly outnumbered by black people
Well yeah because Asians are considered white
blacks say high scool doesn't teach them spanish, but a lot of employers require spanish language to get a job... actually you don't have to speak english, better if your only language is spanish
Only feel times that I experienced racism was actually in a liberal City like Santa Cruz
high school doesn't teach any language EXCEPT Spanish, and a second language is a requirement to graduate
i was super upsetti, my high school dropped literally every second language class except for spanish the year before i went there
and i ended up taking a spanish class from a french teacher
that happened to me to
though i didint need it to graduate i needed it to go into college without taking a second language in collage
it's a requirement to graduate HS here
and i retained no knowledge and took a different second language in college
so it was a complete waste of a class
Anyway I think this attack on the erderly mexican is one off many to come if reported...
That sucks, my high school offered Spanish, German, and French, and it was a shitty public school in TX where Spanish is obviously the most useful for over 99% of students
mine had spanish, french, german, and chinese the year before i went there
This guy is creepy
Interesting, Looks like Dateline Australia was using some of Tim's Footage of the Proud boys initiation.
I don't think someone is essentially a racist because they are a race realist. Nor is it 'wrong' to use country of origin as race.
Example, near all African (including African Americans) maybe different because of nurturing or nature, it is a grouping that works for the purpose of grouping, for the purpose of either medical/education/whatever. So the 'race' is a valid organiser in general.
I agree with Zach Wood, that the IQ test is only a test of certain aspects, but for the purpose of this point lets say it's a be all and end all intelligence test, so the outcome of whites being smarter than blacks is only racist if you think intelligence is the be all and end all, it's equally as valid to say blacks are superior because they can run faster than whites, or that Tibet people are superior because they can use oxygen more efficiently. So the actual point of differences isn't racist unless someone thinks one aspect is better than the other.
And be it culture or chromosome, race is a good way to identify whatever it is.
I usually use the analogy of dog species, pick any species you want, that species in general will all have a similar medical condition, and similar behaviour. You can teach any species to do anything, but if you want a sniffer dog then a kelpie will struggle, and need different training than a Labrador.
Something that can be overcome because differences are recognised, not taboo
I don't think so either, but I also don't think society at large is anywhere near ready to discuss the subject. Both from those who aren't racist and will think of it as racist, and from those who actually are racist and will feel validated by it.
Maybe, but I think it will invalidate racists. "Okay you're smarter, but they will tear your arms clean off", racists can currently choose what they want to hear and assume superiority across the board, when we all have a superior factor each
Really I feel we have acadamia to blame for having swept it all under the rug and not allowing it to be discussed in a responsible fashion.
No different to sexism IMO, girls and boys will always be different, it has been proven over and over again that school/work/life can cater to either, and life works better for everyone when each sex is doing what it does best
Also I don't think that enough people really grokk how statistics work to not make stupid assumptions based on the data. If you say "Men are on average taller than women" someone else will say "Oh yeah, well Venus Williams is 6'1" and you're only 5'10""
Are people that dumb? I'm sure they just want to argue for the point or arguing
If you need to say 'hashtag not all' then you are talking to an idiot
I think it's a combination of the two in most cases. Cognitive dissonance between "men and woman are equal in every way" and the observable fact
Not saying that all of this discussion should be entirely verboten, just that we're in a shitty position, and now of all times is probably the wrong time to discuss it. But hey, maybe despite inspiring some crazies to fling shit it'll shift the overton window enough to have useful discussion
I think it will never be the right time until people do start talking about it. It will always have that awkward point whenever we start the ball rolling, and by the time the ball is rolling it will be time.
And dickheads will always exist, but lets not let them stop the future of humanity
I pretty much agree, but racial relations feel like the worst they've been since the Rodney King riots, and they've only been seeming to go downhill
People only need to move 1 inch at a time to move 1 mile
But going half a mile back to move forward mile later when your back to a cliff is a poor proposition.
idk I'm just some dude on the internet. I hope things work out however it happens, and if not then at least I've got plenty of popcorn in the pantry
Race relations is bad because only the alt right is talking about race, of course blacks don't like what they are hearing. But if pro black sides talked about it, I'm sure blacks would like to hear why they are better in some ways
Man, I really wish only the alt right was talking about race.
As in race realism...
haha I know
I mean im sure you see more people yelling about it and providing their opinion to the conversation than ever before
Not sure that its worse than previous years, i think its just in the spotlight more
It is definitely more violently volatile I think
It's easier to get a smack in the chops now days, but it hurts less because soybois can't punch
The only thing I wanted to comment about the Zack Wood stuff is that I wonder when he thought this uncivil rhetoric started, because I think it's gone on longer than he would think. It hasn't been just this decade when middle America felt slighted by the elites.
@Dunk Massive you might wanna look at <#463068752725016579>
Not American, but I'm going to guess it started between 1989 and 1994
@Arch-Fiend yeah I know, but I don't want to interrupt good debate, when everyone here already knows to just scroll past my shit
eh we stopped talking in there a few hours ago
just put it there if your were interested in seeing
Where the pics go? I got a pic of two opposite headlines from the 1 journalist
<#398973785426100234>
http://archive.is/rSKaM KIA founder tried to nuke the subreddit
So hes crying that KIA is no longer under his control?
He had admin permissions
No longer
i saw his post, he writes like an insane person
its like reading a long nonsequiter at times
Re: The IQ thing, it's not even "you're smarter" because it's not a baseline or a maximum, it's an average. It's "you're statistically more likely to be more intelligent". One of the hilarious things about using IQ as a reason to boot people of a particular race is that it also applies to a substantial portion of any other racial group you'd want to discuss, which is why the " we need to kick out the low IQ blacks lol" argument always gets walked back as long as you push a little on it
But it does raise a point where if you bring a bunch of people from a poverish society or just dump resources to get them into a rich environment, would it be beneficial or damaging
Dumping resources pretty much never solves the problem
Well it always seems to be a choice
But to the extent that IQ can be influenced (IIRC it's majority nature, but nurture plays a non negligible role) gains can be made
Because what I am trying to get at is that this is essentially affirmative action
sudden, rapid change is never a good idea
I don't mean it as flags for minorities are dumber than life is just that they have not done the proper environment to raise their natural IQ and the fact that we just say oh just let them in first and then we'll deal with it
that is literally how you break stuff
I don't think affirmative action is the way to go
Oh ok
Yeah I think there's a few root societal problems that need to be dealt with
i think that so long as a nation isint suffereing from a preexisting immigration crisis (looking at you europe) then really it doesent need a eugenics or forced exodus policy. in my opinion it doesent even need a "high iq only" immigration policy, i prefer something slightly different, but even so i think its fine to keep the nation you have and work with that rather than try and change the people, better to try and serve the people
in the US, ironically, it seems we have a lower IQ worker deficient
I did a small analytical thinking paper about affirmative action where minorities such as Hispanics and blacks do worse when they are giving affirmative action compared to the others
or at least, a labor job deficient
Well yeah, you never get better results when someone doesn't feel like they have ownership of the results
i agree grenade, though i dont think imported jobs should solve that, i think that when you realize your nation requires a working class, you find that inteligence isint a very good metric to bar people from your country on
Not only that the biggest problem is if you believe that you are smarter than and the rest and got into let's say USC but when you arrive you actually are below average and combined with affirmative action you're even lower than that
well that was my point, if you have open jobs, and not enough people to fill them, you can't wait 15-18 years to fill them, you can't wait maybe even 5 years.
i think america has plenty of stupid people who could work, its just that we put them through college anyway
That sounds like a really bad idea or things that require skilled labor
so if you are gonna be letting people in based on any metric outside general "do you not have a history of killing people", it should be based on qualification for a job that needs to be filled.
Well I mean considering the LAPD half of the applicants fail the background check
i dont think america needs immigration to solve its industry problems
farmers would disagree
and not because they can pay cheap
That's called artificially lowering the cost of production
there were farmers in at least one state, paying up to 10 bucks an hour
Which is using government programs and intervention for their benefit
and then the state basically removed all immigrates
and they still can't fill that
That is why we got fat and lazy people
there is just not enough people
that want or even CAN work that job
I got into argument with that
i can tell you, the people who are stupid and went through college? you are not turning them into a farmer
A century egg I would rather work for $12 an hour as a secretary vs $20 as a farmer
not until they are at least 5-10 years down the line training.
Stupid Google speech to text
that sounds like an area that basicly was an immigrant town that had a long history of immigrants competing with the native population for that position, the native population moved out, and when you got rid of the immigrant population the only native population left were to high class for the work
no, its a whole state
not a single town
which state?
hold on, i need to find it, i want to say Alabama
because thats a different problem
Sounds to me they forgot to automate the process
its one of those southern or mid-eastern ones that suddenly went real hard on immigration
Because I know before there was issues with Gathering and there was a demand for automation someone designed it and actually sold it
the problem your describing there is AMERICA has people who would take that job, but the issue is that those people would have to leaves the city in order to take those jobs, we have a lot of population dencity problems here in the usa
where the jobs are isint where the people are
Oh you mean like in Los Angeles and New York City where massive population leads to unemployment
find me a city slicker that will be a farmer and i'll show you a republican from a city
we still have pretty bad unimployment right now
don't link Trump Grenade ๐
Because I am from a relatively big city and if I can find a farming job that pays $20 an hour I would actually move there if I actually don't have my current job
i dont think theres any industry right now that has more positions for our total unimployment its just that the unimployed are far from the places where these jobs are
I know five others that are artist majors that would not do this
its not a problem of jobs not being where people are, its people not being qualified for the jobs that are open
the cost in time and money for retraining is just not affordable
farming is a kind of job that you can become qualified
not over night
not if you are some soy boy from a liberal arts college
uh dude its the most affordable job in the world to learn
learn? sure.
i can learn how to pick an apple
but for 10 hours a day? 7 days a week?
if soyboys cant learn to be farmers why dont we just kill them?
that takes training
i mean, thats an option, but then we need immigrates if those bodies where needed
wait, better yet, lets do an exchange program
i mean fuck thats damn useless to society if they cant learn the most basic industry of human civilization
i mean, no one is illegal, mexico seems like a great place, the Mexican wants to be here, soy boy loves mexico.
I am meant I'm a soy boy because I'm Asian
i see no problems here
Asians are not soy boys even if that is probably more accurate for the average diet.
i dont think all unemployment is soy though
i think more of it is black
i think its cities
lets nuke all the cities
problem solved
i mean, it causes more problems
but thats not hte point
Oof economy
Please give me a week to move out of the city first
im willing to live in a country with black people if they work
im not willing to live in a country with anyone who doesent contribute to some extent
Don't get me started on freaking gun control in California
California politicians doesn't know the difference between a rubber gun and a pellet gun
but yeah i dont just like solving industry problems with immigrantion until youve run out of domestic options
Hell I got one person I heard that once The Purge yet also wants to ban guns
and i know for a fact that we arnt trying hard enough
California is losing its beauty, only a matter of time until people don't tolerate it anymore
i think it can get much worse before people truly dont tolerate it anymore
The purge and banning guns both bad ideas
i wish cali had actually tried to ban elon's "flamethrower"
I'd say Let The Purge happen and let's see who is more well armed
californians trike me as the kind of people who will let a fire build up in the corner of the room and not do anything about it because it might mean they have to take responcibility
the amount of industries that would leave because they couldn't have a butane torch
all the restaurants that would no longer be allowed to operate.
The purge is unconstitutional though. And only those with power would get the most out of it.
they are trying the purge, its called Baltimore
Wait they can butane torches how about butane burners
they wanted to block elon's flamethrower, which is just a fancy blowtorch
not even
its just a very big lighter
Oh yeah they classified anything from 5 to 10 ft a second-class flamethrower in anything over 10 ft as the original Elon Musk made it to 4 feet
oh hey, i forgot about this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STl7-_f4_eA
Not really a "news" much less political but interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IesIsKMjB4Y
Grenade, that's a good video
I wish it had been made sooner
@aleee this type of stuff used to be what i looked up on youtube. back before everything had to be political
Ah, the good old days
Back when things weren't regulated to death and DMCA takedowns were few and far between
FeelsOldMan
Video was mostly spot on. The only real issue I have is that it glosses over the fact that even the early days weren't just gossip. There were a lot of people in it for the banter but there was also a lot of concern over an indie dev sleeping with journos and being chummy with indie award judges
Not really news but there's no other reasonable place to post interesting videos
Or not I guess
*sigh*
I guess I have to grind out 800 more xp before I can actually get get server functionality

some free speech issues in canada right now
basicly any lawyer in ontario (one of the most populated provences of canada) who would like to pracice law in the province is required to take the following statement in order to be licenced. the statement requires adherence to a set of ideologys.
https://www.lsuc.on.ca/with.aspx?id=2147504036
heres a website of a lawyer attempting to resist that. http://stopsop.ca/
this one from late last year is a bit self explanitory

I want there to be a button you can press where, when confirmed, all fake news gets moved to the fake news channel accompanied by a flushing sound
Nice little 'pick me up' video
FUCKING
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAN
The ONE time I decide not to look at the twitter profile description
Goddamn that Portland vid
My favorite part is the guy yelling "hold tight" after the human chain was already broken and everyone is on the ground getting handcuffed
Tim is right, these people believe beyond all doubt that fascism is out to get them
The video has 3 of the most hypocritical statements I have ever heard, 'i know my rights', 'is this how you treat a woman', and my favourite 'what kind of power trip are you on?'
Fascists wouldn't have given them tons of warnings that they'd be arrested
If it weren't for that one guy yelling the naughty word at the ICE agents I would expect that video to be more widespread with the warnings cut out
Fascists don't waste bullets on scum like this, they bayonet them to death
Kind of like the UC Davis pepper spray incident. Most people never saw how the protesters had circled the cops and wouldn't move to let them out when asked, and how they were all individually informed they'd be pepper sprayed before they did it
Russia is doing it right
Nice work Russia :)

boo
if a real woman can't represent a trans woman, doesn't that just mean that trans women aren't really women?
if there are more than two genders, how can you be trans
they kinda defeat their own major argument by being upset by this
This will come haunt them back imo
the extreme left is getting smaller?
Next time they make black guy play lancelot again
you ever see the post of the guy who got banned for asking the question: "if you can be binary, and binary means two, then does that mean there is only two genders"?
it was like reddit or something
I think I saw a screenshot or an archive of it once
Looks like there's going to be less representation of trans people since there are so few trans actors
Scarlett Johansson definitely doesn't look like any trans person I've ever seen.
If you can't say niggers are equal to honkeys and spics then you're wacist
I put together a thread about this bit of news I find interesting.
The gofundme put together by the Democratic Socialists of America after Charlottesville hasn't disbursed the $200,000 it crowdfunded, going on 11 months later.
A number of sources are listed in there.
Wew
