same thing happened with atilla

2018-04-09 03:15:33 UTC  

america is also one of those rare places that only wars for land and doesent care about anything else

2018-04-09 03:15:46 UTC  

because we are ruled by nihilistic capitalists

2018-04-09 03:16:16 UTC  

the good of the people is in spite of progress not the goal in the land of oppertunity

2018-04-09 03:16:17 UTC  

they want land so any future enemy doesn't have it

2018-04-09 03:17:04 UTC  

or you know, to keep our uncontroled consumerism ever more bountiful

2018-04-09 03:17:38 UTC  

theres a reason we use a disproportionate amount of oil compared to our population

2018-04-09 03:18:00 UTC  

you gotta burn money to make money

2018-04-09 03:18:40 UTC  

or it could just be our general power usage

2018-04-09 03:20:13 UTC  

yes

2018-04-09 15:34:53 UTC  

I mean, war is pretty much a zero sum game.

2018-04-09 15:35:03 UTC  

Anything you gain, is a loss for someone elese.

2018-04-09 15:35:24 UTC  

Even resources you gain in land you already own, more resources is an advantage over ones adversary.

2018-04-09 15:35:38 UTC  

So I guess its kinda resonable and paranoid to think that way.

2018-04-09 16:36:38 UTC  

that is if you take war as only an issue,

War forces quick adaptation and evolution of combat,
WW2 was amazing for innovating technology, in fact the first electronic analog computer was a product of this

2018-04-09 16:38:33 UTC  

not to mention that after a war which ends in stability, the economy booms because all the old wares were destroyed, allowing a fresh new generation of equipment to be built and directly implemented

2018-04-09 16:41:22 UTC  

Kind of like bacteria and anti-biotics in a way,

the bacteria either adapts and becomes resistant, and this resistant strain makes the old anti-biotics useless.
Or the bacteria dies off

2018-04-09 16:41:45 UTC  

and if it survives, its stronger than before, because the weakness has been removed

2018-04-09 17:37:22 UTC  

economies don't boom in the countries devastated. Unless you are not taking the massive decline in the economies during the war.

2018-04-09 17:38:54 UTC  

thats why i said, in wars that end with stability, like the west in WW2

@Timcast https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/830148525853396992 i don't know if you get notifications of people @ ing you on minds, so i figure id share it here as well just to be sure. i just watched the culture war podcast, and this post of mine on minds provides some sources to stuff that went down during #gamergate, since you asked for it

2018-04-09 19:18:12 UTC  

so he's partying with Saddam in heaven now? if southpark is accurate

2018-04-09 23:49:01 UTC  

@Timcast hey i made this comment on your video today and i thought it might help to have it here too "there's something actually semi-misleading about how you've presented the result of your test here tim, while i think its a good experiment, its results arnt as clear cut and definitive as you present them considering you haven't shown the videos you claim to have had your advertisement put on for the following reason. you put on content filters, however not all category of content filters will filter out all videos if completely checked for every sub filter. only the filters under group "digital content labels" are applied to all content on the platform, those under "sensitive content" do not as some videos wont be covered under the filters of anything under "sensitive content". basically you forgot to do a control with every filter under "sensitive content" checked when you ran your ad, even then you probably didn't get your ad on every video on youtube, as such even if you did do a control, then did a "sexually suggestive" and "sensational and shocking" filter test there's no guarantee you could tell that you had more results from the latter 2 by simply looking at the numbers"

2018-04-10 03:01:03 UTC  

Just remembered. I gotta call Tim out on something he and others like H3H3 kinda messed up.

2018-04-10 03:02:12 UTC  

Alright you know the whole creepy kids show debacle from a few months ago. Well I think there was an innocent channel caught in the cross-fire.
Do you remember the channel "Hey Kids"?

2018-04-10 03:02:46 UTC  

It was an ARG. Unfortunately key-word there is was.

2018-04-10 03:03:50 UTC  

If someone @ 's me I'll provide evidence of it being an ARG.

2018-04-10 03:11:22 UTC  

@buffaloguy1991 I think whether it was an ARG or not doesn't play into the meat of the criticism. The fact that it was still content that was being directed at children by Youtube would be problematic, itself, depending on the content.

2018-04-10 03:11:50 UTC  

but it wasn't (I don't t think so) here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8B1sRPwK248

2018-04-10 03:12:26 UTC  

Granted, if there was effort being put into it as an ARG, it shouldn't fall in the same category as the algorithm-bait channels.

2018-04-10 03:12:28 UTC  

NIghtmind covers channels like this.

2018-04-10 03:13:37 UTC  

But yeah there were ALOT of channels that were offending. All I'm saying is "Hey Kids" was not one of the offenders.

2018-04-10 03:17:15 UTC  

A lot of the blame falls on Google, though

2018-04-10 03:17:21 UTC  

yeah.

2018-04-10 03:18:16 UTC  

Sure, I suppose you could say that the channels were offending

2018-04-10 03:18:27 UTC  

but in the end, they were creating content that got views, letting them make money off of ads

2018-04-10 03:18:38 UTC  

It's the algorithm that was the offender.

2018-04-10 03:19:08 UTC  

Machines are still too stupid to handle anything as massive as Youtube.

2018-04-10 03:19:34 UTC  

Part of the point, really.

2018-04-10 03:19:52 UTC  

But, I mean
