Thank you

2018-09-11 21:57:46 UTC

Were you really @Stefan Payne

2018-09-11 21:58:04 UTC

Yes\

2018-09-11 21:58:07 UTC

Yes, because I just watched Tims Video

2018-09-11 21:58:11 UTC

Yes, Stefan was.

2018-09-11 21:58:14 UTC

@4AM_critter ๐Ÿ‰ that one is about the papers response this morning but there have been garbage going for days

2018-09-11 21:58:19 UTC

And I misused this chan to talk about Tims Videos

2018-09-11 21:58:31 UTC

The news media in Australia is going nuts

2018-09-11 21:58:46 UTC

And the cartoonist essentially told them to stop being pussies

2018-09-11 21:59:00 UTC

1min and 10s and I don't care ๐Ÿ˜‰

2018-09-11 21:59:07 UTC

Meh. Itโ€™s as good a place as any to talk about his videos

2018-09-11 21:59:18 UTC

Lara Croft >>> Real World ๐Ÿ˜‰

2018-09-11 22:00:02 UTC

Best part is the papers front page

2018-09-11 22:00:18 UTC

>nuLara
No thanks

2018-09-11 22:00:52 UTC

Iโ€™ve been watching the situation divulge from racism to sexism and now itโ€™s a hybrid of both with a bit of misogyny thrown it. Itโ€™s actually pathetic

2018-09-11 22:01:19 UTC

Non stop articles about it and not one mention of the Japanese chick who won

2018-09-11 22:01:26 UTC

I donโ€™t even know what her name is

2018-09-11 22:02:16 UTC

Naomi Osaka

2018-09-11 22:02:21 UTC

and she is also Black

2018-09-11 22:02:26 UTC

Is she?

2018-09-11 22:03:21 UTC

Apparently she's haisian.

2018-09-11 22:03:52 UTC

Half Haitian, half Asian

2018-09-11 22:05:34 UTC

Eh, barely

2018-09-11 22:05:41 UTC

Looks like a tanned Japanese

2018-09-11 22:05:58 UTC

*breathes in*

2018-09-11 22:06:01 UTC

``Personal and family
Naomi Osaka was born in Chลซล-ku, Osaka to a Haitian father, Leonard "San" Franรงois, and a Japanese mother, Tamaki Osaka.[7]

``

2018-09-11 22:06:07 UTC

*breathes out*

2018-09-11 22:06:45 UTC

Lol

2018-09-11 22:06:59 UTC

My point stands

2018-09-11 22:07:38 UTC

2018-09-11 22:07:47 UTC

I can't find pictures of her dad

2018-09-11 22:08:01 UTC

but statistically, he's probably black.

2018-09-11 22:08:12 UTC

The media has completely overshadowed the fact she beat arguably the best tennis player in *womens* history and because Serena decided to have a cry and suggest that justly penalising her for indiscretions

2018-09-11 22:08:24 UTC

Is sexism

2018-09-11 22:08:25 UTC

She's not rated at the top.

2018-09-11 22:08:42 UTC

It's actually likely that Serena might not have been on her game.

2018-09-11 22:08:46 UTC

But this chick beat her and most people probably donโ€™t know her name

2018-09-11 22:08:47 UTC

She might've underestimated her

2018-09-11 22:08:51 UTC

Of course she wasnโ€™t

2018-09-11 22:08:53 UTC

But yes, she lost, and bitched.

2018-09-11 22:08:56 UTC

Thatโ€™s besides the point

2018-09-11 22:09:06 UTC

Oh, yeah, sorry

2018-09-11 22:09:23 UTC

I thought you were saying that Osaka was the 'best tennis player in womens history'

2018-09-11 22:09:29 UTC

No

2018-09-11 22:09:34 UTC

misread. sorry.

2018-09-11 22:09:35 UTC

I was talking about Serena

2018-09-11 22:09:44 UTC

Yeah, no, that's a damned accomplishment.

2018-09-11 22:09:58 UTC

Yeah

2018-09-11 22:09:59 UTC

but instead, it's Serena getting all the headlines.

2018-09-11 22:10:06 UTC

But itโ€™s been overshadowed by Serena

2018-09-11 22:10:10 UTC

Crying

2018-09-11 22:10:15 UTC

And spitting the dummy

2018-09-11 22:10:22 UTC

*as depicted in the cartoon*

2018-09-11 22:11:51 UTC

Right...

2018-09-11 22:12:05 UTC

But because sheโ€™s a black chick

2018-09-11 22:12:11 UTC

Itโ€™s racist and sexist

2018-09-11 22:12:19 UTC

*because reasons*

2018-09-11 22:12:48 UTC

Thing is, if the Left contuinues this way, real racism will rise again.

2018-09-11 22:12:55 UTC

because they went too far with their protection of blacks

2018-09-11 22:13:48 UTC

If you want to get a full grasp of this shit, you need to watch this.

2018-09-11 22:15:06 UTC

WATCH Naomi.

2018-09-11 22:15:13 UTC

@Stefan Payne I think the real issue is wilful disregard for definitions of words to their own definitions that suit the narrative

2018-09-11 22:18:39 UTC

Naomu should fucking ecstatic but she looks like a family member just died...

2018-09-11 22:19:49 UTC

Just wait until she gets to speak on it...

2018-09-11 22:21:23 UTC

Fuck sake she fucking apologised for winning

2018-09-11 22:21:26 UTC

I want to die

2018-09-11 22:21:34 UTC

Thatโ€™s fucking pathetic

2018-09-11 22:21:35 UTC

She got BOOED for winning.

2018-09-11 22:21:41 UTC

Yeah thatโ€™s just fucked

2018-09-11 22:21:48 UTC

This is why nobody watches womenโ€™s tennis

2018-09-11 22:21:49 UTC

Yeah, and she's japanese and grew up there

2018-09-11 22:22:00 UTC

Serena gets some damned points for asking the crowd to stop...

2018-09-11 22:22:18 UTC

That pisses me off more than anything else

2018-09-11 22:22:32 UTC

That it took Serena saying to stop for them to stop?

2018-09-11 22:24:42 UTC

AMERICA ISN'T GREAT! (someone other than an American wins) THIS IS BULLSHIT!

2018-09-11 22:25:45 UTC

asians are white, don't forget guys

2018-09-11 22:25:54 UTC

I lost because of ~~racism~~ sexism. Stop making ~~sexist~~ racist comics about me!

2018-09-11 22:26:29 UTC

Like... Naomi Osaka. First Japanese person EVER to win a grand slam

2018-09-11 22:26:33 UTC

E V E R

2018-09-11 22:26:34 UTC

She's Japanese Black.

2018-09-11 22:26:52 UTC

and all we hear about is Serena spitting the dummy and crying ism cards

2018-09-11 22:29:40 UTC

I'd never heard the phrase 'spitting the dummy' prior to today.

2018-09-11 22:33:51 UTC

Kind of a new low in American sportsmanship isn't it.

2018-09-11 22:34:43 UTC

I think itโ€™s a very Australian turn of phrase

2018-09-11 22:34:56 UTC

And yeah it really is...

2018-09-11 22:35:11 UTC

Wtf is spitting the dummy

2018-09-11 22:35:24 UTC

Cracking the shits

2018-09-11 22:35:29 UTC

Throwing a tantrum

2018-09-11 22:35:38 UTC

Having a sook

2018-09-11 22:36:10 UTC

dummy == pacifier

2018-09-11 22:36:16 UTC

Yeah

2018-09-11 22:36:21 UTC

Forgot to mention that

2018-09-11 22:36:26 UTC

You Americans donโ€™t English well

2018-09-11 22:36:29 UTC

๐Ÿ˜‚

2018-09-11 22:47:52 UTC

And you all donโ€™t speak American well ๐Ÿ˜

2018-09-11 22:48:15 UTC

Why would I speak incorrectly;)

2018-09-11 22:49:58 UTC

Because it is the dialect of your body guard. ๐Ÿ˜ not to mention the language of liberty

2018-09-11 22:56:37 UTC

Hahahaha touchรฉ ๐Ÿค”

2018-09-11 22:56:47 UTC

Interesting point

2018-09-11 22:57:29 UTC

Spelling mum with an o and leaving u out of words like colour is still stupid Hahahaha

2018-09-11 23:05:02 UTC

color

2018-09-11 23:19:31 UTC

Hahahahahahahahaha rekt

2018-09-11 23:24:15 UTC

why??

2018-09-11 23:24:21 UTC

wtf

2018-09-11 23:24:39 UTC

looks like they knew what he was about to do before it would have even happened

2018-09-11 23:24:45 UTC

sucks to be him

2018-09-11 23:28:59 UTC

He was setting the stream up. So an algorithm is banning people from streaming based on the stream names.

2018-09-11 23:29:13 UTC

Thatโ€™s whatโ€™s next.

2018-09-11 23:29:31 UTC

I bet it will eventually bad you for video names right out.

2018-09-11 23:32:29 UTC

actually thats already happening

2018-09-11 23:32:50 UTC

i used to be with the sega saturn fanbase until i found out the main guy who ran it is an ass

2018-09-11 23:32:59 UTC

anyways they use a tag called [ss]

2018-09-11 23:33:03 UTC

that stands for sega saturn

2018-09-11 23:33:31 UTC

in youtube's eyes, its nazi propaganda and is immediately grounds for demonetization

2018-09-11 23:33:58 UTC

this is why all youtubers that covers sega saturn games dont turn a single profit on their videos

2018-09-11 23:34:17 UTC

and not once has this been looked into and corrected

2018-09-11 23:34:43 UTC

so yeah, getting demonetized and banned from streaming because of bad video names and hashtags is already a thing

2018-09-11 23:35:09 UTC

just don't use nazi tags uwu

2018-09-11 23:36:27 UTC

today im going to be reviewing panzer dragoon for the sega satur... demonetized

2018-09-11 23:36:39 UTC

Welcome to the technocratic hellscape

2018-09-11 23:36:59 UTC

panzer... LIKE THE TANK USED BY THE GERMANS???? NAZI GO HOME

2018-09-11 23:37:10 UTC

that too

2018-09-11 23:37:31 UTC

panzer trips the gun control sensors

2018-09-11 23:51:33 UTC

this pisses me off

2018-09-11 23:52:11 UTC

they are wasting millions on these algorythims

2018-09-12 00:44:52 UTC

Today we cover Why We Shouldnt use racist symbols in our society aka How to hand power in your society over to racists 101

2018-09-12 00:47:04 UTC

Ban the racists. Especially the whites who are the most racist

2018-09-12 00:48:23 UTC

In other news today, universities started burning statistics books after learning that race realists rely heavily on statistics

2018-09-12 00:49:40 UTC

An anonymous university official said "The students have spoken and made some very convincing points. Theres no reason we should allow racism to dominate the sciences and we are working on purging it to create a more progressive inclusive scientific method".

2018-09-12 00:51:26 UTC

We need to destroy Newton's *Philosophiรฆ Naturalis Principia Mathematica*

2018-09-12 00:51:41 UTC

Because you know who else believed in gravity? Hitler

2018-09-12 00:51:45 UTC

So...we can't have that

2018-09-12 00:55:27 UTC

You don't have to abolish statistics. You just have to "decolonize" and "de-essentialize" it. Once the inherent whiteness has been eliminated it can be used for socially constructive purposes. Or something like that.

2018-09-12 00:55:39 UTC

Of course

2018-09-12 00:55:53 UTC

But obviously the old books must be burned

2018-09-12 00:56:03 UTC

Cant have racist literature floating around

2018-09-12 00:56:09 UTC

Recycled. Burning releases harmful carbon dioxide.

2018-09-12 00:56:15 UTC

De-colonize science because science can't explain why this voodoo shaman claims he can shoot lightning from his staff

2018-09-12 00:56:20 UTC

Checkmate atheists

2018-09-12 00:57:13 UTC

Sorry... "from *xir's* staff". Let's not be assuming anyone's gender

2018-09-12 00:58:02 UTC

With a sufficiently post-modernist world view maybe xe can shoot lighting from xir staff.

2018-09-12 00:59:32 UTC

If everything is socially constructed, and everyone believes that lightning is coming out of the staff, then who can say it isn't?

2018-09-12 01:00:02 UTC

What even is lightning?

2018-09-12 01:02:14 UTC

>avian flu
>swine flu
>monkeypox

2018-09-12 01:03:18 UTC

This is an example of socially constructed reality.

2018-09-12 01:03:38 UTC

For most of human history this is how we functioned in the world.

2018-09-12 01:04:36 UTC

Stop eating monkeys

2018-09-12 01:05:13 UTC

@Atkins how do you know that's not real? Are you a doctor/shaman?

2018-09-12 01:05:27 UTC

I'd like to see your credentials, xir

2018-09-12 01:05:45 UTC

Decolonize your understanding of science

2018-09-12 01:06:47 UTC

The very beginnings of post-modernism were the attempts of the devout Christians to slow or halt the advance of modernity and rationality.

2018-09-12 01:08:14 UTC

I don't know if that would be considered postmodernism or a form of very old religious conservatism

2018-09-12 01:08:20 UTC

Clearly they did not anticipate what their philosophy would become.

2018-09-12 01:10:16 UTC

The Christian revivals and shakers would be pre-modern.

2018-09-12 01:10:32 UTC

I don't know much about philosophy so I don't know about the path this kind of reasoning took

2018-09-12 01:10:39 UTC

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/398858182455459853/489241400555208705/post-modernism-table.jpg

2018-09-12 01:11:58 UTC

Yeah, I've seen that

2018-09-12 01:12:19 UTC

But couldn't you argue that modernism also paved the way for post-modernism?

2018-09-12 01:13:37 UTC

Yes, post-modernism is a direct response to modernism and its failings. Modernism cannot answer the hard problem of consciousness, and cannot answer questions about how you should live your life.

2018-09-12 01:15:08 UTC

If we're to believe JBP, ancient texts and myths give us a path to how to live our lives

2018-09-12 01:15:55 UTC

Maybe science just hasn't cracked the problem of how to explain consciousness *yet*

2018-09-12 01:16:12 UTC

JBP is trying to do something that needs to be done but he's out of his depth. Everyone is.

2018-09-12 01:16:41 UTC

That makes sense

2018-09-12 01:17:10 UTC

How can you come up with a way in which to tell everyone how to live their lives

2018-09-12 01:17:52 UTC

There may not be one way. One thing we're beginning to discover is that human minds are not uniform in perception and cognition.

2018-09-12 01:18:32 UTC

You probably saw Tim's recent video on 'inner voice' or seen the NPC meme that sprang from that article.

2018-09-12 01:18:40 UTC

I did

2018-09-12 01:18:52 UTC

I have the inner voice but I know people who don't

2018-09-12 01:19:02 UTC

They looked at me like I was crazy lol

2018-09-12 01:19:20 UTC

But I also tend to talk to myself out loud

2018-09-12 01:19:22 UTC

That's not a new thing, and it's only a tiny piece of the literature on the subject, but the important thing is that people in a very literal way think differently. They perceive differently.

2018-09-12 01:20:20 UTC

Some people may actually believe in what we label social construction.

2018-09-12 01:20:41 UTC

That if a belief is universally and legitimately held, it becomes objective reality.

2018-09-12 01:21:44 UTC

This is probably not a large segment of the population, but it would explain a lot of strange social phenomenon if it was a measurable minority.

2018-09-12 01:22:51 UTC

I find it really hard to wrap my head around it to the point where I still have a hard time entertaining the possibility. It's like they believe they become invisible if they cover their eyes.

2018-09-12 01:23:11 UTC

Or if nobody sees them eat cake they can't be getting fat.

2018-09-12 01:26:42 UTC

People who have radically different modes of cognition from one another may not be able to operate in the same philosophical framework. If one believes that the world is socially constructed, a philosophy that is libertarian isn't going to work for you because if others are free to believe what they choose they might invalidate your existence.

2018-09-12 01:34:07 UTC

But I guess on the other hand if one believes in an external objective reality that exists independent of oneself, one has to make a leap of faith that the information available about that reality is accurate. Like Mickey Mouse said: 'hypocrite that you are, for you to trust the chemicals in your brain to tell you that they are chemicals'

2018-09-12 01:38:46 UTC

That's a very interesting way of looking at things

2018-09-12 01:39:17 UTC

That some people are so radically different in how they inherently think that they can't operate in the same framework

2018-09-12 01:40:27 UTC

I think that's a part of the conflict we see today. But there are also people who are just completely amoral and opportunistic who are taking advantage of these differences for pure power.

2018-09-12 01:40:58 UTC

Probably

2018-09-12 02:43:40 UTC

The tolerant left.

2018-09-12 03:48:11 UTC

Tolerant liberals strike again

2018-09-12 04:41:22 UTC

hey guys, does anybody know a good way to look up old articles? Searchable Archives dating back a decade or so?

2018-09-12 04:41:53 UTC

im trying to find some articles from about 2008 related to traffic safety in very different towns

2018-09-12 04:45:06 UTC

iirc there was a town called "Slough" that ran a traffic experiment (at the time was named "Safety Town" iirc), likewise across the pond another town named "Drachten" ran a opposing traffic experiment (Slough added signage and increased rules, Drachten did the opposite.), Drachtens approach by all metrics appeared to have won out, massively while Slough held and i believe still has one of the highest accident rates in its region.
Various articles addressed reasons this happened but although i can find articles relating to Drachtens benefits, i cannot find articles which point out Slough's Faults (To the contrary i can find a page that says the "Safety Town" experiment was a success, when its accident rates clearly prove it is not.) So thus im trying to find articles that i think are not listed anymore due to being 10+ years old

2018-09-12 10:27:31 UTC

Jesus fuck

2018-09-12 10:27:58 UTC

Those feels when you're a nice SJW who stands up for the rights of everyone, so you bully a man's children

2018-09-12 10:34:17 UTC

@Rabbi Shekels Look ^ He deactivated it.

2018-09-12 10:35:04 UTC

Yeah i someone said that in a vid

2018-09-12 10:35:08 UTC

Didnt know

2018-09-12 10:38:24 UTC

Now starting.

2018-09-12 10:38:42 UTC

Ohhhhh fuck

2018-09-12 10:47:35 UTC

@Poppy Rider You watching?

2018-09-12 10:47:52 UTC

yep

2018-09-12 10:47:54 UTC

I think they just rejected Article 11 overwhelmingly but I could have heard wrong

2018-09-12 10:48:07 UTC

thats the amendment i think

2018-09-12 10:48:18 UTC

thats the one we wanted.

2018-09-12 10:48:24 UTC

Fuck, you're kidding

2018-09-12 10:48:31 UTC

don't quote me

2018-09-12 10:48:45 UTC

I have no fucking clue what's happening anyway yeah

2018-09-12 10:49:13 UTC

Sargon said something like "reject the Voss report" which is what I think this is?

2018-09-12 10:49:57 UTC

See that cunt with a smile on his face. He needs a good shafting

2018-09-12 11:02:18 UTC

This is how freedom dies. To the sound of cheers.

โ€œNow I will tell you the answer to my question. It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.โ€
