Thankfully i didnt have to deal with any instances of it in my university

2018-08-22 03:22:29 UTC  

Though there was one time a KKK effigy appeared, but apparently it was taken down before it could be seen by any press

2018-08-22 03:22:32 UTC  

Some of my favorite states ive visited are middle american

2018-08-22 03:22:41 UTC  

The talk about White Privilege is turning whites against minorities. I don't understand why they can't see that.

2018-08-22 03:22:47 UTC  

they do all to often go ignored

2018-08-22 03:22:57 UTC  

You're lucky then. I had "white privilege" explained to me before I ever set foot on campus.

2018-08-22 03:23:01 UTC  

Is Boogie alright

Because they see their ideology as right and those who dont agree as the enemy

2018-08-22 03:23:12 UTC  

Everyone made fun of it at the time. But now it's escaped campus and isn't a joke anymore.

2018-08-22 03:23:27 UTC  

I mean personally my campaign slogan might be "Seeking Solutions" when that time finally comes

2018-08-22 03:23:46 UTC  

They did have us watch a series of videos about "rape culture" but everyone just let them run and did other things

2018-08-22 03:24:18 UTC  

lol i had a "rape culture" convo with some sjw at a local con

2018-08-22 03:24:20 UTC  

@Dusty Morgan They think it's going to reconcile differences. And it didn't turn *them* against the minorities. The ones that do just suffer from "white fragility" and need to be fixed.

2018-08-22 03:24:39 UTC  

Unity is a bad word now.

2018-08-22 03:24:43 UTC  

i basically said "but rapes illegal and actively looked down on by the wider society"

2018-08-22 03:24:50 UTC  

Too be honest, I think all this talk about identity politics and new problems is just the product of people who have too much free times on their hands, thinking to freaking hard on subjects that really isn't a problem in the first place. Or I could be wrong, there is a more sinister motive to it.

2018-08-22 03:25:08 UTC  

It's everything.

2018-08-22 03:25:13 UTC  

social media

2018-08-22 03:25:24 UTC  

Alot of it is a bit of a meme in the original sense Dawkins wrote it.

2018-08-22 03:25:42 UTC  

i cant tell you how good it feels to barely use Facebook

2018-08-22 03:25:43 UTC  

Social Justice is more or less custom designed to seize power and resist attempts to dethrone it.

2018-08-22 03:25:54 UTC  

A true uber-meme so to speak.

2018-08-22 03:26:28 UTC  

So it persists by creating problems that it claims to solve and seizes resources and influence as it persists.

2018-08-22 03:26:36 UTC  

Becoming ever stronger.

2018-08-22 03:26:46 UTC  

Including it's particularly totalitarian impulses.

2018-08-22 03:26:52 UTC  

its the new class conflict

2018-08-22 03:26:58 UTC  

Fire people who oppose it as intolerant and hire those that support it.

2018-08-22 03:27:10 UTC  

its ultimately self-destructive

2018-08-22 03:27:26 UTC  

Just look at #metoo

2018-08-22 03:27:39 UTC  

and all the #resettheclocks

2018-08-22 03:27:54 UTC  

@Lagomaster24 I actually like comparing it to Chivalric codes. Alot of those tended to be abused by the knights who claimed to follow them. But it was a very good way to separate the knightly class from the peasants.

2018-08-22 03:28:07 UTC  

fair

2018-08-22 03:28:10 UTC  

Antifa comes along and equates words to violence, thus justifying their use of violence against anyone who show even a slight hint of being against their views. Then that escalates when the right decides to stand up to them, trying to show them what kind of hypocrites they are. Antifa is acting very similar to the brown shirts from the 1930's to the point, it is hard to separate them from actual real Nazi's from the 1930s.

2018-08-22 03:28:14 UTC  

didnt think about it that way

2018-08-22 03:28:47 UTC  

Antifa might as well BE the brown shirts

2018-08-22 03:28:55 UTC  

When both of these sides collide, I just shake my head and sigh. They are feeding off each other, they are not going anywhere and people are being hurt because of it.

2018-08-22 03:29:00 UTC  

instead theyd be the black shirts

2018-08-22 03:29:09 UTC  

yep

2018-08-22 03:29:23 UTC  

they thrive off of it though

2018-08-22 03:29:27 UTC  

so they continue

2018-08-22 03:29:54 UTC  

even if they havent realized it yet
