Chilichimp posted:2 million dollars buys a lot more than the 1st home in the suburbs. That one from the first photo looks like about a 600k McMansion in Whitesville suburban Georgia, with a guest house/in-law sweet + single car garage tacked onto the far side of the garage (that appear to be additions). It's not like we have to guess. The address was listed on the original post.

Off topic, but are there any other good sites for political discussion? Sometimes I have a bit of free time at work, so I go onto the political threads at Neogaf, but I feel as though they're a lot more hostile. Is it just me?

Crain posted:Yes. My coal country cousins from WV legitimately say they are against retraining, against altering the state's "industry identity", and want it to be coal or nothing. I understand that's the case with WV, but PA, Ohio, and Michigan? A new jobs program has a pretty good chance of working.

I don't think you'll find a good fair place to talk about politics in a non-hostile place, at least I haven't found one. Be it here, /int/, /pol/ neogaf, bodybuilding.com, mmo-c, like anywhere is going to have hostile shitbags on one side of the isle or both. It's just do you want your hostile shitbags to be red, blue or somewhere in the middle.

Mide posted:I'd take 20 years of weapons training over 20 years of martial arts. Than you're a fool unless you want to be a soldier. Martial arts training includes weapons training, and most importantly conflict resolution. Those are far more likely to save your life than a gun, in a majority of scenarios that people encounter in their daily life.

BarbarianElephant posted:Yes. As an aside "toxic masculinity" is probably a bad phrase to enter the common parlance. It makes sense in an academic context, but like "white privilege" is going to confuse and upset people who aren't educated enough to realize what it means, thinking it's something to do with hating men. I don't really want guys like this to think they are hated for being macho. It's OK to be macho after all, as long as you don't let it box you into making foolish choices. Fojar38 posted:The word "feminism" has this same PR problem. In common parlance most people tend to interpret it as being discriminatory towards men. I think that academia has already realized this somewhat and is trying to change the parlance to something that sounds more gender neutral. What's important is that we avoid using accurate terms in order to appease those who fundamentally disagree. This is how progress is won! It definitely doesn't devalue or erase the advocacy, scholarship, and resources that have been poured into the fields by decades and centuries of those who have come before. It's also a coincidence that the fields and canon are dominated by women and/or people of color while concerntrolls whinging about the PR problems of inequitable language are overwhelmingly white men.

There are country songs that glamorize farming. Western songs that beautify cattle ranching. Bluegrass songs that romanize moonshining. I have never heard a happy song about coal mining. Literally every one is, "work hard, get screwed, maybe die today, definitely black lung later". And these are the jobs we're trying to save?

If I was a Republican strategist and Democrats started trying to make a case for climate regulations on the basis of "for the children," I would immediately parry that into "if Democrats care so much about children, then what about ABORTION?" and that would muddle the issue and undermine any kind of inroads the Democrats were trying to make among family-style conservative types. Not saying that isn't a good idea, I'm just thinking ahead.

Seems to me like preserving the intangible and abstract value of the work that has been poured into the field is less important than winning elections and getting policies in line with them implemented. Doing that requires explaining it to Joe Schmoe whose chief source of information is facebook.

LionArcher posted:As for the fantasy about opposing the government if they become (more of) a police state.... that's laughable. They have drones and the psychopath warriors (special forces) working for them. That's not really a fantasy though. You can certainly defend yourself from the government if you have guns. John Joe Gray assaulted a police officer and got away with it by arming himself and hiding out on his east Texas property with some militia buddies. He warned the cops that if they came for him to "bring body bags". The authorities didn't want another Waco and left him alone. The charges were dropped after 15 years.
