`He's not going to prison.
Taken in context with everything else Count Dankula has said and done, it makes perfect sense to suspect that it wasn't "just a joak bro" like he claims.
There's something inherently off-putting about people who manufacture anger. Jonathan Pie has been doing this schtick for years.`

Ok, I'm drunk now
```On Frozen as propaganda, from one of my more influential Twitter followers```
wjen jordan peterson read 1984 did he think george orwell just wanted to write a cool story about dystopia for the sake of it
Current mood: crying while laughing emoji
yes of course movies have themes in them, yes of course companies are going to be sure to make them suit whatever their target audience likes, ben shapiro and jordan seem apparently very convinced they're the first people to figure this out
>re-engineering what women **should** be interested in
that's not a theme
bob iger isn't sitting in his shadowy evil chair going "yes, i'm going to indoctrinate the children into accepting feminism so they will vote the elections and hillary will win...", if overnight the disney target audience suddenly became conservatives, disney would overnight be making movies about family values and being skeptical of who comes into your country and whatever
this is just like when every company suddenly had a pro-gay ad when polls indicated most americans support that now
```>re-engineering what women should be interested in
that's not a theme```
disney's audience nonstop cried for female empowerment and lesbians and feminism and everything to be put in the movie, so of course disney hires people who are going to write stories promoting those things
dudee
no, I'm sorry, but trying to indoctrinate young girls isn't the same as pandering to an audience or trying to draw in a new audience
```
disney's audience nonstop cried for female empowerment and lesbians and feminism and everything to be put in the movie, so of course disney hires people who are going to write stories promoting those things```
no, feminists with loud mouthpieces called for that
every kids movie that isn't retarded can be labeled as "indoctrination" for having themes in it, which is what el liberals actually did with the angry birds movie
you idiot
theme's are not indoctrination
trying to re-engineer what women are interested in *is* indoctrination
yes and why do you think they want women interested in those things
because it's their agenda?
because they want to control for that?
why do you not see this as a problem
As someone pointed out in the Twitter thread. Frozen has a male hero, that's a hero for 3/4 of the movie. Then he turns into a psychopath.
hmm
No reason, no warning, he just switches. "Now I'm a murderous psychopath. Nothing I did up to this point made any sense."
@nic too bad that shit don't work
yup
double yup
women drop out of stem like flies to a zap light
do you really think disney's secret goal is to indoctrinate women into feminism, as opposed to just trying to manufacture an audience that makes them shitloads of cash
It could be
They aren't mutally exclusive
Did you not read what was in that Tweet? Are you being intentionally dense, or just lazy?
both
again, if overnight the people theyre trying to please all became conservatives disney wouldn't stubbornly continue to make liberal movies
you seem to think that Disney doesn't think that feminism = cash
thus indoctrinating children = cash
>Disney has developed **tools** and **strategies**
yes of course, corporations want to make money and feminism makes money
except it doesn't
take a look at MTG
lowest sales figures in 10 years
what happened?
no it doesn'tlook at fucking marvel
wonder woman and ghostbusters were almost entirely marketed as being movies for feminists to gawk at and go "i agree with these things!"
they went full feminist/SJW
**Tools** and **strategies** for **Youtube** to use.
and ghostbusters completely flopped
their sales are in the shitter
This ain't "we can make whatever film we want."
^
wonder woman was a massive box office hit, black panther was one of the most successful movies ever, ghostbusters failed because it was gay
They're selling this shit to be used to make women do what they want them to do.
social justice is the new way to market and exploit things - black panther isn't just a movie, it's a _cultural experience!_
They admitted, Frozen was undeniably created to serve an agenda.
Not to tell a story.
yes of course, but they push that agenda because that agenda makes money, not because bob iger has set out to kill gender roles once and for all
And now they're selling their tools and methods for other people that want to push the same agenda.
I guess, if it makes money, no objections then...
it can be very shitty ! but the point is that bob iger doesn't give a flying fuck about whether your daughter hates gender roles and wants an open relationship, the point is that she becomes his customer, and that's a nuance these guys constantly lack when pointing out the agenda
The point isn't "we have to stop Disney." This is vindication, for people that rolled their eyes and claimed that Peterson was exaggerating when he said Frozen was ideological indoctrination.
Post hoc ergo propter hoc
It was so guided to be an ideological piece of propaganda, they're selling it.
Your claim that they were just following the market is absurd.
95% of corporate politics are just following the money, the other 5% is chick-fil-a just not caring about their sales
companies aren't going to produce movies that they know will flop because ideology, for the same reason they aren't going to ignore the opportunity to hypothetically hire women for less than men expect
not without an expected longer-term benefit that's big/obvious enough in EV to overcome the fact that people are usually bad at long-term thinking
Ghostbusters was re-made because the market wanted third rate actresses?
it's because someone had the tism, DKO
yes, imagine the media outrage if disney released the angry birds movie, or casted all white people for star wars
it was made because they honestly expected the marketing strategy to carve out a niche and/or drive ticket sales through controversy
nope.jpg
protein world would, similarly, love for fat women to also buy their product, but they took a calculated risk that a devil-may-care social media strategy would pay off
gell yes the movie does still need to be competent and entertaining, sony skipped that part
Spiderman Homecoming was a Sony movie that was pretty damn good and it wasn't nearly as infested with SJW bullcrap as Ghostbusters 2016
they only distributed it
humm they apparently have a few competent movies, like 1 in 10
l0l they released emoji movie, flatliners and the dark tower
I'm having no luck finding a new Venue for twis Bristol.
I'm being up front about it being anti-Corbyn and the possible protests though
everyone is noping the fuck out
Wait just saw a Tucker video and he is speaking about foreign voters in texas
How can non citizens vote in an election?
Can I go to texas and vote?
Because the left wing pushes the idea that "Voter ID laws are racist".
So no one has to prove who they are
So illegals can vote
It's illegal to demand ID at the voting booth.
That sounds crazy
In most other countries you have to see someone who has a list of names and you have to show them your ID and they check off your name from the list to mark down that you attended the voting booth (they don't ask about who you voted for or anything though)
i too remember when thousands of people believed a picture of mexicans on a bus was proof of voter fraud
They do have a list of names, yes, they do strike it out.
But they can't know you're the person you're claiming to be.
Yeah, so it's pointless to have the list if you aren't required to prove it with ID
I definitely overdid it
I said not to
I said effects are delayed
I didn't realize it took so long
Well, at least you can take it as a learning experience for next time, if you take it slow you can keep the "good" feeling for longer without reaching a point of feeling sick
Weed or booze?
He was drinking
Apparently had never been drunk before
Just keep drinking water.
He drank an entire bottle of wine so more liquid might make him feel even more sick, at least it does for me. Unless he already threw up the wine.
The point is to avoid dehydration, once he starts pissing away all the alcohol.
An entire bottle in like under an hour I think
>Many of the effects felt after a night of heavy drinking are related to dehydration, according to the โAnnals of Internal Medicine.โ The best way to rehydrate your body is to drink plenty of water, although other fluids can serve the same function and reduce hangover symptoms, as well.
```Annals```
hhhha
I assumed he was having the feeling of wanting to vomit because it was only very recently that he was drinking the entire bottle, I wasn't really speaking to dehydration hours after the fact
At my Grandads Local Pub up in Scotland a guy downed an entire bottle of Whiskey on a ยฃ10 bet
guess what happened
He threw it all back up or he died
he dropped dead on the spot
Yeah, it's pretty braindead to think you should chug a bottle of straight alcohol
his heart stopped
flatline
He probably had underlying heart issues
but he won ยฃ10
When I was younger and went through a phase of drinking a lot often, I used to drink 3/4 of a 30oz bottle of something like Vodka.
But it took me a few hours to go through that
I have a drinking buddy she's Russian I'm Scottish
there's definitely something in it
lol
only woman I know that that can drink me under the table
but my Nepali missus. give her 1 glass of wine and and she's pissed

Isn't this factually incorrect? I've heard Sargon claim over and over again that wealth inequality has been dramatically on decline world wide because of Capitalism based on the book he read by Steven Pinker, right?
Yes, it's false.
There's more to it
>We have tens of thousands of people dying due to lack of access to proper healthcare
>hundreds of thousands of people dying due to lack of access to proper healthcare years ago
That doesn't apply in the UK
It's not entirely false, but it's the premises that's wrong.
Hmm
Yes, wealth inequality is the highest it's ever been. But that's saying the difference between a 1000 and 50000 is greater than the difference between 100 and 5000
Overall he's wrong but in the UK where Sargon is from we have Socialised Healthcare
tl;dr the wealth became more inequal simply because the rich got richer faster than the poor got richer. Everyone got richer, it's just the highest got it faster.
the US is a shithole, but it's the exception
sidenote - invest in gold and keep few gold bars in your posession - we're at hyperinflation race right now and dollar might just collapse within next 9 years
It's different here to the USA
it's the only western country where things regress
"Please don't let anyone prove me wrong!"
I'm actually curious what the idea behind investing in gold to avoid a monetary crash is.
the US is the most free country on earth, don't you remember that huge discussion we had the other day where someone told us his opinion and we all just accepted it as fact?
People who tweet that sort of thing normally haven't visited the UK
or left their State EVER
One can't just make gold out of thin air.
the US is free, and it's the only country that can be the world police
One also can't use gold for much of anything other than a luxury
but US citizens are worse off than the rest of the west, and their quality of life is in decline
it's easier to make money when you have some already to invest
they love strawmans
I mean, if you do have wealth, and you know that if you keep it in the form of currency it will lose value, what would you rather do with it?
i.e. much easier for rich people to become richer
than for poor people to become richer. Who'd a thunk it.
Gold only has a "perceived value" for the most part, but... its value has been fairly reliable over millennia.
If I had to invest money in something I knew would keep value, I'd probably go for weapons actually
As long as there's two humans on earth, there'll be a market for weapons.
Yes, you can invest, but now there's a risk of losing money.
Can you invest all of it?
Would you invest all of it?
I would probably invest in real estate
Worked for Trump.
I mean the prices seem to only go up
And you can rent it
Until the next bubble, that is.
unlike gold
bubbles are a very real risk in real estate
Real estate will go up until population declines.
china has one waiting to happen
AKA as long as we have immigration, real estate and agriculture grow in price.
Can you imagine if Elon Musk finds an asteroid made of gold? He'll make it to the history books as the first UN-sanctioned death penalty to save civilization.
How does he manage to make himself sound more pathetic with every tweet he makes?
i wonder what dusty thinks of secular talk
They are friends I think
How does a Gold asteroid helps anyone?
maybe it's me being an idiot, but I actually don't get why people hate conservatives so much. Even if you think they're literally killing the poor, they've agreed to play the game of politics so we can just vote them out
How would they even bring it back?
far left doesn't agree to the game of politics, they want the game of censorship.
Black Science Man keeps talking, the first trillionaire will be the one that finds an asteroid made out of gold or platinum. But truth is, the world's economy might not be able to handle all that. The value will crash faster than a dinosaur-killing asteroid.
Well, balck science man is no black economist man
Unless they can't actually bring it back to earth, in which case it's worth absolutely nothing
Of course, everyone ignores the amount of fuel to haul an asteroid around.
He is upset about the photo of Sargon with PJW
Even so, let's assume they get it back. How heavy is this asteroid we're talking about?
Let's assume it's either of pure gold or platinum, we'll figure out which later. How many kg we talking here?
probably thousands or millions of tons
Then we've a simple solution. Rather than a full on sale of it, they have to sell in intervals, only so much at a time.
At the highest end, we have asteroids in the 10^15 tons range.
That way instead of them just crashing the price because now there's an oversupply, there's a level of control to the price. This is all assuming they even sell it to begin with.
@dko you can't bring back a moon sized asteirod
because tbh I wouldn't put it past someone like elon to just make a space museum and put it in there
I know, the point is, they can be fucking huge.
I mean I'm assuming for the sake of logistics we aren't talking about actually hauling it back to earth
You bring however much you can haul.
I figured we're talking about them having legal ownership and hiring a mining company to take pieces of it off to haul back
The trick is to find asteroids that are remnants of protoplanets that underwent differentiation.
So dense elements are separated from lighter elements.
Instead of having to separate dirt and rock from what you really want, it's mostly pure already, thanks to gravity.
I figured we were talking about it being pure from the start, for the sake of argument
>Their latest figure for all the gold in the world is 171,300 tonnes
Looks like it isn't hard to go above that figure, in terms of asteroid mass.
Anyway, what I was pondering was, what would be the economical and political implications of bringing such an abundant amount of rare material from space, down to Earth.
Is there anyone here who keeps up with how the tech for virtual reality is going? I've been interested in it because I want to see how far it goes (because I want better vr for the vidya games), but I haven't kept up with it lately.
Could be a copper asteroid even.
Oh, easy answer. If it lands anywhere other than china, it's going to be bought from that country by china.
Even if the country can't transport it and so china just buys the land it's on
Imagine the USA, and other countries, deem it a threat to the global economy.
They wouldn't do that. The worst they'd do is decide we can only mine out so much of it at a time, to keep the prices stable.
Imagine if Russia tows the asteroid to Earth.
They wouldn't get to. The US would probably shoot it out of orbit if Russia was getting it, and then claim it was a terrorist attack by Iraq.
Naturally it'd work because ISIS would fucking *love* to claim they can bomb space.
uh
It's a bit related to the idea of a "duplicator/synthesizer" like the ones in Star Trek TNG. Could such a wonder even be introduced into our civilization?
Aren't we already going down a road something like that with 3D printing?
Sudden abundance when there are plenty of parties that benefit from the scarcity.
Yeah, but 3D printing is very limited.
We can't print molecules, we can't synthesize atoms.
And it expands the more and more the tech is developed.
We wouldn't get there like, tomorrow, it'd be over a course of years, possibly even decades.
Even if the tech existed tomorrow, people would be careful to make it a gradual shift.
At some point we would need to be able to control the precise arrangement of atoms.
We must secure the existence of our race and a future for passable traps
Metallurgy would be obsolete.
So would meat
Vegans would win at this point
I think we kind of have some control over the arrangement of atoms already. I'm trying to go look for the experiment again, but if I remember right there was a group of scientists that actually pulled a basic level of it off
they solved the alchemy question and turned lead into gold, I'm gonna go look that up again and see if I can find it
which is fine, no reason to raise animals if their meat can be produced more efficiently without having to do so
moral bonus of not having to kill them as well
some of us like to feast upon the dead
We can transmute elements, with a particle accelerator, and a lot of patience.
LOL
Yeah but if we don't have cows how can we harvest cow farts for methane
