well I meant flamboyantly gay.
Not many out there
cept hollywood
I would say depends more on personality
The left sure likes to make judgements based on appearance :/
ya that's crazy
Well round trips means just as much climb as descent though
I like walking a lot too
oof
timcast new vid
oof
newest in timcast feed
wat?
well what was suggested would be take from the poor
" take everyone who works 2 jobs and take one of those jobs away and give it to another person"
tbf not everyone in NK thinks it is normal
@Thirg well what you said would technically lower unemployment
But the logic she was using was under different context
course looking at that, there are more jobs available than are people unemployed
The logic you are using would be something valid to look at though, but Cortez was saying that people are working 80 hours and cant feed their kids
suggesting that she thinks that people are necessarily working 2 jobs
Someone should ask her about supply vs demand
A lot of things lie somewhere between art and science
If you throw out the art or science aspect you run into trouble
Boom Bust Boom was correct
still have not taken econ yet
pretty straight forward stuff though
if taken with a grain of salt
the green brothers have a channel
terminology and what not
is it though
those places are warm
So what you are saying is Obama is now alt-right?
By today's standards it is hard to be left of Centre right
Obama is also a big talker though. He has made a lot of promises only to never to bring up the subject again.
For sure the right is the liberal side now
Funny that conservatives and liberals are on the same team
Well left and right originally just came from the 2 majorities in an old for m of congress
Not socialism vs capitalism
Democracy 3?
Nvm
But for real though, gay marriage becoming universal accepted has been one of the worst things for the left as far as membership
Many on the left are there for one issue
Conservative and liberal gets mixed up with left and right I feel like
I've never felt the need to drink too much
Well, Fox will be Disney anyway
Skull candies are great
kinda interesting
Others have described it as an offshoot of the alt-right, in that it claims to reject identity politics
part of the page
" As with the alt-right, the alt-lite commonly shows broad support for Donald Trump, criticism of and/or opposition to political correctness, Islam, feminism, welfare and illegal immigration. "
Calls it a movement, and still a variation of conservatism
at this point it is basically implied that alt right are those things
alt-lite is called like the alt-right minus the identity politics
To paraphrase Jordan Peterson, the rights red line for extremism is when it vies for ethnic based policy and standards
30% can be a lot of things to disagree with though
And another problem with labels is that you can find yourself subconsciously thinking what would my label do
The problem for me i guess specifically is that I don't totally line up all that well
If I have to say that I support someone it is better that i mention multiple people to show that I am somewhere in between these people
I wouldn't say well defined
other than centrist maybe
or independent
Well technically I guess the way this might work is that you look at many different values like in 8 values
And the values you feel more strongly for you might not need a label but if you lean that way greatly it surely kind of shows what you hold in high regard
It's just better to say that you are for certain values and beliefs unless you are close enough to something to be able to distinguish that you are something minus a couple of issues
Ya that Indian news bit is super fucked up
With 8 values even that feels largely not super accurate because it asks questions where it really depends
ya
some good company though
Scholars now tended to associate it with the theories of Mont Pelerin Society economists Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman and James M. Buchanan, along with politicians and policy-makers such as Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan and Alan Greenspan
As far as wikipedia defines it
English-speakers have used the term "neoliberalism" since the start of the 20th century with different meanings,
Wikipedia is amazing
I think what 8 values is using is what wikipedia would describe as far as neoliberalism
I haven't seen much evidence of wikipedia being false and misleading to a significant degree
not finding any issues here
Let me put it this way, how much of wikipedia would you say is reliable?
On politics would an encyclopedia be better?
The number of revisions required to start showing this effect, however, is quite largeโat least 2,000 editsโand the articles most read by users aren't necessarily those most revised by editors. "To some extent, we are not seeing the scenario where too many cooks spoil the broth, we are mostly seeing an insufficient number of cooks," says Zhu.
If Wikipedia would like to improve its objectivity, Zhu recommends that it encourage editors to revise the most-read stories first, as well as encouraging people with different political leanings to edit the same article.
Certainly sounds interesting
@pratel I am not saying that Wikipedia is perfect or doesn't have controversy, there might be truth to those things but I can't take I've been told at face value if I am honest though, but I will consider those things. I just mostly go based off of what I can get out of wikipedia, and I feel that I come out of wikipedia better informed, and provided with links to similar topics that I had not considered.
Would be good to find an artist interested in making a concept mock up to see if an end product would be something worth pursuing
or also doing things barebones having just the main goals ready to see if it practically is as good produced as concepted
@pratel I don't assume any source is outright accurate
@pratel I just think it gets underused because people think that it is mostly inaccurate
We were discussing alt-lite earlier
it may have been used that way just like liberal or conservative
some accept it to be alt-right minus the identity politics
"In addition even though the Alt Lite and Al Right labels serve a function on a political classification level I would still urge one to be cautious about overusing these descriptors as they may cloud some key differences between individuals falling under the respective umbrellas."
There is interesting discourse because many who are "alt-lite" are called alt-right
I wouldn't necessarily use alt-lite as a over encompassing grouping though
Ya
right?
