MLM storytime! So, once someone was complaining about how broke they were despite being much better off than I. Anyway, I ask what what they are paying for, and among her things was 50 dollars for the Epicure Selections Club from her friend. So I ask her about it, and she says "Well, my friend is a stay at home mom, so she needs the money." So I said "Well, if she needs the money, then just give her the money, instead of giving a cut to the company." And she got all in a huff about how it would hurt her friend's feelings if she did that. Another time, she tried to sell me on a ramekin, or something, that was apparently from the same MLM. I looked it up, and showed her she could get four for the same price on Amazon. They weren't even the cheapest ones.

PM Cameron quitting is a pretty good indicator of the contempt the ruling class has for democracy. A monarchy is better in a lot of ways, because there's one person that either does the reasonable job or gets straight up murdered.

I like Colbert but now I must question his intelligence and sincerity. He may have friends in London but they must be rich because no average Brit with a brain is going to want to stay in the EU. Here is why the Brexit was voted in.

the entire global establishment is rushing to assure itself that the Brexit movement is not a class revolt, but only a momentary spasm of voter ignorance and lower-class bigotry against Muslim immigrants. But they're only fooling themselves. While the two-headed monster of raw racism and xenophobia was most certainly in play, that was not the majority of the pro-exit vote. At its core, this vote was a full-throated rebellion against out-of-control economic and political elites ruling from afar, enriching themselves by ransacking the workaday majority.
Located in faraway Brussels, EU officials make decisions that harm British working stiffs who never heard of the decision-makers and have no power to replace them or to alter the decisions. That is how and why the Brexit rejection of European government happened—it was a democratic shout of anger at the steady usurpation of the people's sovereignty and well-being, fostered by architects of corporate plutocracy.
Of course, the obtuse, self-absorbed Tony Blairs of our world still don't get it. Blair concluded his op-ed by pleading with establishment centrists to regain political control from the people and "find solutions that rise above populist anger." Exactly wrong, sir. The obvious solution is to understand and work with the angry populace, rather than stoking their anger with more "solutions" from above.
Yes, some voters are outright bigots; others sometimes get bamboozled into looking down and blaming their problems on people even more desperate than they are. But most voters today—in Britain, the U.S. and elsewhere—are finding the light of true, progressive populism, turning their eyes upward to see and rebel against the elite manipulators who've long been rigging the system against poor and middle-class families.

So do more reading and research if you don't believe me. The EU functions just like the Oligarchs here in America. They are stealing the people's ability to have a say in their own lives for their own country. They are pumping in immigrants willing to work for low wages there by destroying good living wages. They are making it impossible for ordinary citizens to grow their wealth and they are thriving on debt. Whether in America or Europe the wealthy and corporations are controlling everything to the detriment of regular people. Do you think this is coincidence that this is happening or are these world summits they have where no journalists are allowed the place where they decided how the world will be run and who will benefit?

I probably worded that more antagonistically than I should have. It's just that, if there's something that should really harm your faith in humanity, it would be people saying extremely vile things at pure fluff videos. All political things will come with the risk of people making vile comments, whether in print or talk radio or online commentary. When that same thing extends to cute, fluffy, fun videos(my "favorite" is when there is just a random black guy in a cute video and a tidal wave of hate is unleashed), it's frightening.

What bothers me is the wave of hate that is aimed towards anything even remotely related. Yea I should expect a video about brexit to have pretty aggressive comments about Brexit leavers/remainers. But I'll watch a video that will passingly mention a game like Mirror's Edge Catalyst only to get comments about "feminazis ruining everything". All it takes is just to have a video with a woman in it or talking about women and you just scroll down and see a 50% dislike ratio, and the comments are only worse. Because you can't just ignore them and have a regular conversation. You get invaded and flooded out with homophobic or sexist slurs because apparently internet comments are their "territory".

This is especially true with specific youtube channels. Like that gggmanlives guy I linked to earlier. He's mentioned his pretty poor opinions about feminism in gaming and that just made his entire channel this nest of negativity and bigotry. Luckily it looks like I've finally stopped getting comment replies from them.

Tell me about it. I was watching a video the other day where two women were talking about something video game related, and holy crap there were a lot of those sort of comments. They weren't even pushing a viewpoint or anything, just talking about stuff, but apparently a lot of idiots thought they were trying to overdose people on X chromosomes or something.
