AceOfFlames posted:They better get in line: "why don't they support a diversity of opinions" is the new "why don't you tolerate my intolerance?"  Also honestly gently caress Julian Assange, he's a worthless piece of poo poo that's been coasting on Chelsea Manning's work for more than a decade. I regret ever thinking poorly of her when I was younger, but my gut reaction that Assange is a rat was totally, totally right.

It just takes one brave man to stand up, point at the naked emperor, and say "actually Hitler was right, and scientific racism is the only real science and This kind of happened with white people with Trump's pussy grab tape, so I could see him feeling a little bold.

" and everyone will go "oh my God I thought I was the only one, I don't have to be politically correct anymore" and women will be relieved to quit their jobs and go back to the kitchen where they always wanted to be, and black people will say "I'm so happy I don't have to pretend to be your intellectual equal anymore, and I can just shine shoes and whistle without a care in the world" etc etc, and all the liberal atheist professors who had pulled the wool over everyone's eyes would stammer out "diversity is good, banning diversity of opinions on segregation is anti-diversity, oh no that's bad, segregation is the true diversity, segregation is good" and disappear in a puff of logic

So, as many of you are no doubt aware, the Trump Administration has been catastrophic for the rights of Americans with disabilities, especially those with mental disabilities, as it doesn't do its best to defend them in court and as Betsy DeVos shreds support for education support for disabled Americans, not to mention attempts to take away their healthcare via Medicaid defunding. Another issue is that Americans with mental disabilities can currently be sent to special factories where they can be paid well below minimum wage by companies like Goodwill. The Obama Administration was making progress on ending this practice - notably, the State of Vermont has gotten rid of it entirely already - but the Trump Administration is backsliding on the issue. http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/08/many-people-with-disabilities-are-being-paid-way-below-the-minimum-wage-and-its-perfectly-legal/

I mean, hiring whoever's in the headlines doesn't sound like a good business practice, especially for a small company.

Lightning Knight posted:I mean it's the quintessential expression of "equality feels like oppression to the privileged," I dipped into the Reddit thread and about three comments in they'd started on the "affirmative action is racist against white people, the process should be colorblind" talking points. It shouldn't surprise anyone that the libertarian techbro class really wants everyone to operate as if people were already equal and structural inequality didn't exist/has already been solved. Also couple that with the fact that we're at the tail end of the "Computers is magic and here is all the money for knowing even a little bit about how to manipulate them" bubble. When my father got his first "real" career job he was promoted hand over fist because he could work with computers and write a basic HTML webpage. Now that poo poo is basically janitorial level work. So you got this guy who went from "big fish in a little pond" to being "specimen number whatever-thousand in a large aquarium with whales and sharks" feeling unsure and wanting to lash out, then you heap on the fact that less and less people give a poo poo about aquariums at all and that there's tons of them. He was probably told his whole life (just like every other "Millenial") that getting not just a degree, but a computer science degree, was easy street to adoration and wealth. And while he even got to the top of that wave and is clearly doing fine (I mean, it's still loving Google man. Ya done did good kid.) he loses it because by the time he showed up the club had expanded its membership. ---- Also, as a funny aside: I'm seeing a bunch of my interns fail at getting positions/asked in interviews why they don't have "Expertise" in MS Office. This isn't the case, clearly. What's going on is that to these kids it's so loving obvious that you use office/word processors to write papers, excel to do data analysis, powerpoint, etc that they don't think to list it. To them it's like saying "Can use pencils". At the same time the hiring managers are still looking to see that you have that skill since they're still of the mind that it's not ubiquitous in education these days. Just another aspect of expertise inflation. Crain fucked around with this message at 12:42 on Aug 8, 2017 |

Muslim American support for LGBT acceptance has doubled since 2007, from a quarter to about half (which is comparable to the general population).

Mustached Demon posted:Pro tip for would be stemlord graduates hoping to have a career in the tech industry: prepare to be humbled. There are many people smarter than you and they enjoy the gently caress out of putting your idiot rear end in your place. This is a little surprising to me, I thought this is what happened at the top schools that these companies recruit from. You get these loving old professors that believe in academic hazing because "it was good enough for them and parents are being told to look out for signs of depression and suicidal ideation.

That article is not really showing the whole story. Most Goodwills are independent of the national organization, I worked for the goodwill of mass and the people that were employed were severely handicapped, and it was basically a daycare. Our ratio was 87% and we operated close to the red most years. You'd have a room of 30 handicapped people with ten social workers. Not exactly a winning formula for huge profits. I'm not saying it's the best thing, but it wasn't operated as a profit center, it was operated as an option for families with severely handicapped members.

Mr Interweb posted:so much stupid in this tweet The VA has palliative care and cancer treatment. Usually the cancer treatment at the smaller VAs is either farmed out to the local university hospital or the doctors that work at the VA are the same as the ones at the University hospital. The records transfer from VA to VA so McCain could move to any place in the USA and tests would not need to be redone. Sounds kinda good to me. /shrug

Is that something that is a real actual problem or a thing that could be a problem? The one of those factories I know of isn't some slave house, it's just some wood working arts and craft project a local group home has. It's people with true profound disability doing labor that isn't remotely economically productive and is basically a charity thing where you buy their bad woodworking as a token thing to donate some money to the place they live. I can definitely imagine that system being used to make an exploited slave workforce but is that a real thing that happens frequently or a boogyman on a program that is mostly just some charity thing for people that can't produce meaningful economic labor getting to play out a "going to work" role play.

I was referring to how stupid it is to take McCain to a government agency that provides fully government provided health care (the VA) but instead put him on a system that involves him buying private insurance (Obamacare) and using that as some great "owned libtard!" line.

I know. The VA has its faults but the amount of care that it provides is leaps and bounds better than many of the Obamacare plans. What they suggested was impossible and it's just bad thing plus bad thing must be bad. It's trying to be this huge own but reality is mich different.

NYT got a leaked copy of an internal government report from 13 Agencies and the National Science Foundation that the Trump administration denied a clearance to be released publicly. http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/government-report-us-warmed-rapidly quote:The average temperature in the United States has risen rapidly since 1980 as a result of climate change, according to a government report obtained by the New York Times. Trump's Immigration Bill is also DOA in the Senate. http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/rubio-white-house-backed-immigration-plan-not-going-to-pass-in-senate Dems will filibuster. Plus Rubio is against it because it would potentially limit opportunities for Cubans. Nikki Haley confirms that there is no chance that the U.S. re-enters the Paris Climate Accords unless every country in the world (except for Syria and Columbia) agrees to renegotiate it from scratch. http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/haley-us-paris-withdraw-doesnt-mean-dont-believe-in-climate-protection Leon Trotsky 2012 fucked around with this message at 13:38 on Aug 8, 2017 |

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Left-most candidate that can win in the primary. Yeah but Jill Stein didn't run in the Democratic primary. In the current environment, presuming a sane candidate operating in good faith and who who has not been photographed having dinner with Putin (all tests Stein fails), I don't think "leftmost" and "can win" are necessarily opposed. For some candidates (Bernie) they may even be mutually reinforcing. The electorate, especially the young electorate, is a lot further left than anyone "mainstream" is prepared to admit, even now. Plus, voting leftmost candidate in the primary helps push the party further left which is a net good.
