While the others were doing it as in worseon without the need of govt intervention.

2018-07-15 22:40:59 UTC  

That one, im not too clear, but ive heard people blame the media or even the decline of morals in general.

2018-07-15 22:41:18 UTC  

You've heard that and think it has some merit?

2018-07-15 22:42:40 UTC  

I think the declining morals bit has some merit. Issue is that what morals are is very subjective, and well, you might end up regressing as people start censoring stuff for immoral values.

2018-07-15 22:43:20 UTC  

I wouldnt call what i think you're talking about a 'decline'

2018-07-15 22:43:25 UTC  

Its more so a 'shift'

2018-07-15 22:43:36 UTC  

I think thats a better term.

2018-07-15 22:44:31 UTC  

You could perhaps list the decline of religious (Christian, Primarily) values as a reason for more births occuring out of wedlock, and higher divorce rates.

2018-07-15 22:44:41 UTC  

Still, now peoples morals are focused on doing right by the "oppressed". But morals when it comes to the family unit or openess with sex may have reduced.

2018-07-15 22:45:31 UTC  

Sure its a shift, ultimely why I said its very subjective.

2018-07-15 22:46:22 UTC  

Im not too sure if relligious values were the main drive for that.

2018-07-15 22:47:03 UTC  

Peoples morals and values vary wildly. I dont really have any comment on the first part, but alot of the sacredness of the 'family unit' or 'nuclear family' is related to religious/christian values (Which can be held even by people who arent religious at least in part) Also related to modesty surrounding sex, and whether it feels taboo to talk about it.

2018-07-15 22:47:08 UTC  

But I guess relligious values have declined lately as well. Where it counts.

2018-07-15 22:48:24 UTC  

Huh didnt realize that, its also the difference between that and well, people who jump around between multiple partners and never marrying.

2018-07-15 22:49:10 UTC  

Well, somebody can be a christian, go to church once in a while, pray, but in daily life give it next to no regard.

2018-07-15 22:49:37 UTC  

Never putting it to practice?

2018-07-15 22:49:50 UTC  

Yeah, you could say that i suppose.

2018-07-15 22:50:23 UTC  

Also, im new, but are we in the wrong room?

2018-07-15 22:50:46 UTC  

I dont think people care these days. Disussing news is this room.

2018-07-15 22:50:57 UTC  

Like the firearms chat is now discussing space battles.

2018-07-15 22:51:28 UTC  

Fair enough.

2018-07-15 22:52:01 UTC  

Channel used to be just fake news, general and shitposting. Well a fewrooms, with only the shitposting one allowing images.

2018-07-15 22:52:14 UTC  

And people chat in each one, didnt really matter.

2018-07-15 22:53:31 UTC  

I see.

2018-07-16 01:26:21 UTC  
2018-07-16 02:10:57 UTC  

oh wow

2018-07-16 02:11:25 UTC  

when we talking about armed forces, what exactly are their firearms loaded with?

2018-07-16 02:12:14 UTC  

i take it that they arent equipped with rubber bullets, stinkbombs, and sonic grenades

2018-07-16 03:50:14 UTC  

Why do people fuck up their own place to celebrate winning shit?

2018-07-16 03:53:24 UTC  

I think these riots were a continuation of a controversial miniroty shot by police, but that has been unconfirmed as of now.

2018-07-16 03:53:55 UTC  

I did not hear about that.

2018-07-16 03:54:20 UTC  

PressNews (IranianTV)mentioned it in passing but not much detail about it I'm afraid.

2018-07-16 06:57:57 UTC  

Y'all see the Stefan Molyneux video on the Florida school shooting, the SJWs would explode if they heard what the kids dad says

2018-07-16 14:59:33 UTC  

France is basically a third world country at this point. Can't tell the difference from the riot video.

2018-07-16 15:06:01 UTC  

Third world means not ally of the US right?

2018-07-16 15:06:26 UTC  

It means shithole.

2018-07-16 15:08:52 UTC  

To be honest, shitholes dont like the US

2018-07-16 15:09:44 UTC  

Third World originally meant not allied with US or Russia

2018-07-16 15:10:02 UTC  

So shitholes aren't exclusively Third World.
