@Asatru Artist - MD that simple concept is why Bernie is sooo wrong on the "free college" thing
At the high end of wealth liberalism becomes a political expedient and a way to Shield yourself from backlash
@Perihelion - CA I'm just saying, you don't need college to be successful, as most of us here know already.

@NiceGuy The fact that these videos go viral is actually proof of black privilege. Even if a white person genuinely did call the police on a black person for a bogus reason, what this shows is that if a white person mildly inconveniences a black person, it becomes national news. Meanwhile, there was a story where a black woman set a white baby on fire and it barely made local news.
take the survey everyone
We can actually use these stories to our advantage by pointing that out
@Jordan - MD The whole "free college" thing is just to get a ton of other do-nothings to vote for him. Plus, he doesn't care about money because he has been a govt parasite for decades. "Money" literally grows on trees to him.
Oh wow yeah I never realized that
There are definitely smart people who drop out of college because they find their talents wasted. There are also plenty of dropouts who couldn’t handle it who shouldn’t have been there in the first place.
@Jacob very astute tbh
Alright folks we'll get started in an hour, please remember to mute your mics.
College is just a way to transfer the cost of training from the employer to the employee. It's a wage reduction hidden behind a veneer
I once had a friend tell me about a white person doing some mean to a black person, and I calmly explained to him that all this proves is that mildly inconveniencing a black person gets more attention than committing an actual crime against a white person. By the end of the conversation he took my side and agreed that it's a double standard and this stuff shouldn't actually be news.
You can change people's minds by politely pointing stuff like this out
I think many whites are feeling the heat of crime and anti whiteness and so they may overreact but they often react correctly

Since colleges operate like businesses now, they basically let in literally whoever. It has the kind of nasty side effect of drastically lowering the quality of the service you’re provided.
It's a side effect of unlimited credit sponsored by the government. Unlimited credit always generates Monopoly pricing
“Group project” = “required hand holding for people who shouldn’t have been allowed to finish high school”
Ice meme is ded pls
Because humans suck at utility analysis when it comes to amortized schedules

meme police in da haus <:really:453005408064241674>
In the long term, it's actually *good* for us in a way that these stories about a black person being inconvenienced go viral. Because it gives us a great opportunity to point out double standards.
So, by all means, yes, the media *should* keep overreacting every time a white person mildly inconveniences a black person.
*Ice Chewers are the most powerful race in the world*
**only REAL IE members chew Ice while Casey is doing the fireside**
True
Pls, is cringe
Ice chewing helps you looksmaxx your jaw
*>Mrs. Logan isnt a REAL IE Member it would seem...*
@ophiuchus Exactly, and the fact that tuition costs vary based on whether you're in-state or not also supports that, my grades were not as high as what was regarded to be the admission standard, but that out-of-state tuition cost definitely played into my acceptance
My teeth hurt. Halp
Ice chewing wears down your teeth
@ophiuchus I am like a shark, my teeth are always regrowing
But the teeth that do remain are extra strong
i don't even chew ice, i get my drinks without ice
@Jordan - MD I went to school on a full ride and the amount of teaching I had to do to keep people I worked with in the loop was basically a full time job
