and i linked him a twitter post of someone saying twitter was operated by nazis, because they were frustrated and quit the platform

2019-11-08 02:22:57 UTC  

and he was confused on why i was mocking it

2019-11-08 02:23:26 UTC  

and the only places that would have proof or evidence of left wing bias are sites with right wing bias

2019-11-08 02:23:31 UTC  

which are instantly discredited

2019-11-08 02:23:44 UTC  

its like quoting the bible as the authority, to an atheist

2019-11-08 02:24:14 UTC  

and it goes both ways, so who the fuck does anyone believe

2019-11-08 02:24:36 UTC  

unless you do your own research with history and law and the more objective things

2019-11-08 02:24:46 UTC  

but then other people have to consider you a valid authority

2019-11-08 02:25:41 UTC  

i use history and psychology where i can to base my beliefs

"I'm right, you're wrong, and I don't want my entire worldview to come into question." -someone, somewhere on the Internet.

2019-11-08 02:25:50 UTC  

pretty much

2019-11-08 02:26:02 UTC  

you have to make SOME level of impact

2019-11-08 02:26:10 UTC  

but not so much that they snap and reject

2019-11-08 02:26:24 UTC  

not so little that they barely even know you said anything

2019-11-08 02:26:40 UTC  

probably why its harder to argue with men

2019-11-08 02:26:53 UTC  

and probably why theres fewer women in debate positions

2019-11-08 02:28:57 UTC  

I remember in my senior year of high school, I took AP World History, and one of our topics was how Muslim women were not oppressed. I didn't bother to say anything, but some other girl in my class did. It was basically her vs. the teacher. You could not even question the idea that no Muslim woman is oppressed.

2019-11-08 02:29:29 UTC  

In hindsight, I should have said something, but the teacher also had access to my grades.

2019-11-08 02:30:09 UTC  

David Packman is fucking stupid

Cooperate to Graduate

2019-11-08 02:30:28 UTC  

This is why I'm curious of when it's a good idea to step in and voice your opinion, even if someone with more authority than you.

2019-11-08 02:30:29 UTC  

'muslim women arent oppressed'

2019-11-08 02:30:33 UTC  

>google muslim women

2019-11-08 02:30:40 UTC  

Fuck cooperation that teacher is a dumb bitching lying to the youth

2019-11-08 02:30:54 UTC  

I understand not speaking up but Godspeed to the femoid

2019-11-08 02:31:11 UTC  

To be fair, I could see sealioning as a legit concept. If you're a dick for so long and then pretend to be nice just to troll people, I wouldn't expect them to take you seriously and so you'd have to work extra hard to convince them you're acting in good faith.

The problem lies in painting someone as a sealion when they HAVEN'T been a dick to you.

2019-11-08 02:31:29 UTC  

After the class watched some video about how the hijab is a choice, we all had to write if our opinion on the topic changed.

2019-11-08 02:31:35 UTC  

In this particular case she’s supposed to educate kids but she lied to them

2019-11-08 02:31:51 UTC  

That’s a big no no and it breaks the social contract between teacher and student

2019-11-08 02:31:56 UTC  

This is what happened to Sargon at VidCon, and even though he went in good faith, it wasn't reasonable for Anita to expect that he was, given his dickishness to her in the past

2019-11-08 02:32:04 UTC  

Also what happened to Crowder with Cenk

2019-11-08 02:32:31 UTC  

he said something about passing TYT in subs, and so he isnt going to be punching down on them

2019-11-08 02:32:37 UTC  

because until recently it was punching up

2019-11-08 02:33:01 UTC  

Punching up / down is a form of suprematism

2019-11-08 02:33:04 UTC  

not sure if you mean something else

2019-11-08 02:33:07 UTC  

it assumes inequality

2019-11-08 02:33:37 UTC  

When you want to have a civil discussion with someone, but they decide to smear you instead. <:comfort:592107824826417204>

If two people are equal, they should be able to criticize each other as peers. Saying one side can't hit the other is an acknowledgement of their inferiority. So like not criticizing PoC is a form of white supremacy and the soft bigotry of low expectations

2019-11-08 02:35:18 UTC  

Affirmative Action is the soft bigotry of low expectations. It assumes I can't succeed in life without the help of the government.

2019-11-08 02:35:24 UTC  

correct
