2019-09-21 20:37:20 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Yeah.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 20:37:27 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Reviewing rules, et al.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:06:45 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Ok, so @Jeremy, basically be myself.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:10:50 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Yeah, instead of trying to reason with individuals who would rather fling excrement in an ad-hominem basis.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:11:17 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I've watched Sargon's videos for a while.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:13:08 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I don't prefer his videos, but not due to content...rather due to presentation.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:17:44 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

It is not dissimilar from a classroom setting with a proctor feeding information.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:18:46 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Forgive my typos. Asthma is kicking my butt today.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:20:11 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Well, Epic, in a word: Oxygen.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:23:50 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

That is not untrue, Alexander. I have forgotten more than some people will ever learn. I have one working lung. My asthma is atypical of what you're used to seeing.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:26:05 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

It's alright. Life happens. What I'm actually curious about is how epic is this alleged epic beard?

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:28:45 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I may do that.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:30:48 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

That is how roles work, yes.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:33:38 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

One big reason for lockdown is to keep people that lobby for shutting down any speech they disagree with from seeing the speech to begin with.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:34:14 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

It's an agreement: "You'll play by the same rules as everyone else."

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:35:15 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

If I recall correctly, there have been attacks against this server from radicals.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:35:38 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Same with Sargon's channel on youtube.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:36:39 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Shoe, Armored Skeptic, Raven and a few others have dealt with the same.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:36:58 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

GirlWritesWhat and the two other ladies she co-produces with as well.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:38:27 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I mean, take a look at literally any part of Erin Pizzey's life and you'll see the effects of radicalization of an ideology.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:39:22 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

She starts a place for people of all backgrounds to get help from DV and gets attacked by a political group for giving the truth instead of their narrative. Then she is forced into hiding due to death threats. It's really sad.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:41:48 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Alexander, a person could broadcast the Discord chat for use that for other purposes.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:42:07 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

There's a video I saw where a Buzzfeed shill did just that.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:43:30 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

They intentionally joined a known free-thought Discord. They then simply recorded all conversations. This was broadcasted via Twitch and then posted via Youtube. Their subscribers then all reported the channel.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:44:36 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Thus, I'd lock out people who did not agree to the rules too. Simply joining and staying is not an agreement to the rules. Agreeing to the rules is.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:46:34 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Yeah. This is why EULA and other agreements exist for software. Downloading the software is not agreeing to the rules, nor is installing it. Using it is. Locking you out of use until you agree to the EULA is a binding contract which makes you in the wrong if you do not follow it.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:47:44 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

In the same way, the rules are posted. This gives new people time to read them (as I did) and agree to follow them. Then one is given access to the server.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:50:21 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Right, but we all know that certain people don't follow rules like that and then they deflect saying the rules don't apply to them because they're appealing to a higher power/bandwagon fallacy where whatever ideology they wish to promote is more important than free trade of ideas on an equal field.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:51:50 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Honestly, furries have some of the best artists.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:52:57 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Right, Nimble. Equality of Outcome vs Equality of Opportunity.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:53:27 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

One cannot have both.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:54:19 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

No. It isn't my thing. That being said, I've had people send me sfw furry pictures and they were very well drawn.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:58:34 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I'd say I've enjoyed some of the art, sure. By the same token fantasy art could be considered 'furry'. C.S. Lewis' 'Chronicles of Narnia' with the many talking animals. Any of the Redwall books and their art. Mr. Toad.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 21:59:06 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I cannot remember what series Mr. Toad is from.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:01:01 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I'd agree with you, Nimble. I'd also point out that the 'degenerates' still enjoy the 'vanilla'.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:02:19 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Very true.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:03:10 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

You know you're old when you have memories of printing out images for private purposes from a floppy disc to a dot matrix printer.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:04:49 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I was the only person on my social media platform that mourned the death of Ralph H. Baer.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:05:08 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

No one knew who he was.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:05:58 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I feel like anyone who plays video games at all should learn about him.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:06:32 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Haha. I used to have Facebook. It has since been deleted.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:06:48 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Alexander, google him.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:07:41 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Neither was I.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:07:53 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

It does count. LinkedIn is what Facebook initially was.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:08:16 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Alexander: I was born in '81.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:08:48 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

That's fair, I guess. Still....being the father of gaming consoles as a whole....

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:10:17 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

If Ralph didn't make the first console you wouldn't have Xbox.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:10:28 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

At least not in its current format.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:13:10 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Sure.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:14:10 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Like, the local medics that work at a station near me aren't taught EVOC anymore. They're taught EVD. By the same token, CPR no longer requires breaths like I was taught. It is purely compression. Things change over time.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:14:56 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

That said, if I say "Eli Whitney' there has to be a significance.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:15:30 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Atari wouldn't have existed without R. H. Baer. He's the Eli Whitney of video games.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:15:51 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Much like the cotton gin changed farming.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:17:00 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

On a segway to another topic....it is a strong belief of mine that the US Civil War would have happened regardless of slavery....but that if the cotton gin had been invented 20 years sooner that war would have happened much later.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:18:45 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

One of the reasons I hold this belief is: Expansionism. Every time a state was added to the overall union the North and South would be at odds over power. No different than Democrats and Republicans in our bipartisan system today.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:19:23 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

In the history of the world, nearly every country has had a war with itself; nearly every government a war with its people.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:19:32 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Right.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:21:09 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Yeah. That's what led to Charlottesville.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:21:17 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Just, as an example.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:22:06 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

In part, a lack of education.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:22:44 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Our public school systems are garbage and people are taught what to think instead of how. So instead of analyzing the situation they pull emotion to the forefront.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:23:34 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

A great example of this, on that vein, is the flag that people claim is southern pride. That flag they use is the Virginia battle flag. Not one of the four official flags of the C.S.A.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:25:07 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

So, what you have is a bunch of uneducated people claiming it's heritage....which it isn't unless you're from Virginia or directly related to one of the soldiers who were under that specific flag.....and you have another side of uneducated people who think it's a slavery flag.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:25:49 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Right.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:26:31 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

...and therein lies the point.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:27:28 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

When your beliefs lead to attacking other people who are non-violent, which in turn creates violence and then becomes cyclic (I don't care who started it, but someone did), it is a problem.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:28:39 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Violence is only justified against those who are actively violent.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:29:02 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

....and only then in the defense of oneself or another.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:29:57 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Correct.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:30:29 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Extremism and zealotry always lead to it.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:31:37 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

The moment you stop accepting that someone is allowed to have another opinion outside of your perspective and proceed to become violent then you're absolutely in the wrong.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:32:18 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

This is why I put AntiFa, the KKK and BLM all in the same ilk.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:32:35 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

They all follow the same criterium.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:33:32 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

That is absolutely true, Gamer. The mass majority of violent political groups have evolved from the Democrat party.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:33:53 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Absolutely.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:34:25 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Nimble, go to youtube. Find 'Louder with Crowder' and look for his undercover with AntiFa.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:35:12 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

The KKK have been expanding. Many 'Alt Right' ideologies are pretty much KKKesque.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:35:54 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Heather Heyer was the only death at that rally. She died to a MVC.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:37:13 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

The MVC was caused by an AntiFa member who was harassing vehicles with an AR-15. Thus H.H. was indirectly killed by AntiFa. The driver happened to also be a political extremist. He directly killed her.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:37:48 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

The cruel twist of fate is the fact that H.H. was a member of AntiFa herself and even had an AntiFa honor guard for her funeral.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:38:37 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

The narrative, however, is that H.H. was a 'political equality activist hit by an Alt Right extremist'. Nothing more.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:41:12 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Oh, yeah. The hispanic community is a great example of that.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:42:26 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Right. There's a lot of tribalism.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:43:29 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

It's odd. If you're hispanic and an outsider hates on you...you're ALL up in arms. The moment there's no longer a common enemy if you're from Costa Rica and they're from Mexico all bets are off.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:45:10 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

On a side note, I've gotten much more constructive relationships...at large...with people born in Africa that come to the US than ones born here who choose to hyphenate.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:45:58 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Poor communities in general, Newt.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:46:13 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

The ghetto, the barrio and trailer parks are nearly identical.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:46:23 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Minus the melanin.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:48:23 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I think the government has a lot to do with why those communities are so broken. When there's a social safety net (See Welfare) then families are not encouraged to stay together. Just as one example.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:50:31 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I grew up on base. For the most part, racism was a new concept when I joined civilian life. Even then it really wasn't really tangible until I moved to NC.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:51:21 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Correct, Gamer. That's also a reason why the KKK prospers still. Same ideology on a larger scale.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:52:49 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Yep.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:54:45 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

This is why I am not a proponent of hyphenation. Not unless you are a first or second generation immigrant.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:56:57 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

As a child with a severe illness my strategy was to find the largest and most aggressive kid in school. Beat them to a pulp. Then my duration at that school was peaceful.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:57:53 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

I was meek until the 4th grade. A lot changes when you realize teachers will watch and do nothing.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:58:48 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

You didn't know what group to fit into and wanted to be accepted.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 22:59:06 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Especially due to being supplanted.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 23:02:16 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Adversity should strengthen.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 23:05:42 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Sure. Breaking down the walls that cultural Marxism enacted via Feminism will help.

Brokkr
2019-09-21 23:11:13 UTC [Athens #the-long-walls_immigrants]  

Exactly, or...as I stated earlier. Welfare. People are rewarded for running from a unified family unit by getting paid for having babies.
