Selling antisemitism to the goyim from under a yarmulke has been one of Ben Shapiro's most lucrative hustles for a while now.

Mr Interweb posted:i'm curious what the non-racist reason is that these guys provide for insisting that it's important to know that black people have low IQs? They think that if there's a scientific explanation that doesn't account for society then the status quo is ok. If black people have low IQs, you expect them to under-perform. So that's why they're still poor! Redlining was years ago! Get over it!

yeah these people don't know anything. they'll think they got you by pointing out even middle to upper middle class black students score worse than equivalent income white students but they don't know that a black family with an income of 100k is more likely than not living among white families making a third of that and thus go to shittier schools. it's ben shapiro spewing out contextless statistics about black america and saying it's "culture" because belief in any right wing position requires you to ignore historical context. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfGciFH7BuI everything he rattles off here is an effect and he treats them as causes.

HootTheOwl posted:They think that if there's a scientific explanation that doesn't account for society then the status quo is ok. Right, and it's the first step for basically biotruthing out everything. Women not in STEM? It's because their genetic makeup and hormones! Black people not achieving as much? It's their genetics! Foundations and laws and regulations made to try and break the massive inequality of the past are then entirely unnecessary and wrong. They can then work on removing those attempts at equality not with a, "I don't like black people because I'm racist" or "the free market will decide (which people know is dumb and also racist)," but instead with a, "it's simply genetics, and refusing to recognize that is racist." They can even then accomplish the latter with an added head patting for, "trying to do good, just inappropriately" which they think is a disarming tactic.

IIRC in the original tales Robin Hood did heavily skim off the top of what he took but he still gave the poor their money back as good PR

oh how i miss keeping tabs on conservative comics as for robin hood, i can totally believe that it's possible that in the original stories, he wasn't as much of a typical folk hero as we know him to be. but still, it's a weird argument to make since what people think of robin hood ISN'T what he 'may' have been 800 years ago or whatever i think they call this the 'death of the author' or some poo poo

Feinne posted:I mean he's always been an outlaw who fucks with the rich and powerful and that's the true essence of the character. sure, i'm just saying it's POSSIBLE that he might have been kind of a dick back then since lots of folk heroes and stories that we like nowadays (like a lot of the stories that Disney films were based on) were not all sunshine and rainbows. i mean, in the original greek myths, hercules was an immense rear end in a top hat who killed random people that weren't evil but just pissed him off. he's very different from the disney version or the 90s live action version.

Best part is how the "actually of noble birth, fighting against abusive usurpers" got tacked on over the years since celebrating a commoner fighting nobles was a wee bit much for the aristocrats writing it all down.

https://twitter.com/BlueBoxDave/status/1156170508183973889?s=19 This is so typical of RWM intelligentsia. They spend all this time claiming they're just making rational arguments based on facts, but then when the facts become inconvenient they go full postmodern and question the nature of truth itself in order to justify their biases. This is the same thing run of the mill CHUDs do. The other dumb poo poo they love to pull is pretending they don't actually like Trump while also saying he shouldn't be impeached or that he's not really racist. It's all a con, and actual mainstream sources basically give them a pass on this. They're never made to answer for supporting the president.

Dilbert Creator Scott Adams Uses Gilroy Mass Shooting to Promote His App https://gizmodo.com/dilbert-creator-scott-adams-uses-gilroy-mass-shooting-t-1836781947 “If you were a witness to the #GilroyGarlicFestivalshooting please sign on to Interface by WhenHub (free app) and you can set your price to take calls. Use keyword Gilroy,” Adams tweeted. Roughly 23 minutes later, Adams had some advice for critics who correctly identified this as shameless opportunism aiming to capitalize off an atrocity: Grow up and stop it with the “fake outrage.” “It’s a news gathering tool, like CNN and FOXNEws (among other uses),” Adams wrote at 8:44 p.m. PDT. “No fake outrage necessary. This is one of its intended purposes.” Adams doubled down in subsequent tweets. Later in the evening, in response to a Twitter user who wrote, “Monetizing a massacre? Disgusting. WTF?” the cartoonist wrote, “You said that on Twitter, which monetizes every news story. As does CNN. Interface is just another tool.” Adams also wrote that “no one needs to charge for anything” on WhenHub, which lets users set an hourly rate. But it is obvious that the potential to make money off the Gilroy tragedy was on Adam’s mind. When challenged by another Twitter user as to why other media outlets such as CNN weren’t offering to pay mass shooting survivors for quotes, he responded, “How do they make money?”

Feinne posted:I mean he's always been an outlaw who fucks with the rich and powerful and that's the true essence of the character. But when you're looking at the original stories told form before it became important to turn him into something of a role model, he's often loving over the rich and powerful in the name of other rich and powerful people, or himself as a rich and powerful person. Sometimes he's raiding the poor and later giving a rich guy a small cut. And quite often he's not even touching the rich and powerful, but loving around with similar high-status commoners who are his rivals, or simply messing with other outlaws and thieves. He's really a lot more like pirate fiction characters than a guy who has serious beliefs that the rich and powerful are bad.

Mr Interweb posted:it is NOW I'm going to poo poo and piss on your parade. "Death of the author" means that authorial intent is a myth. It's a framework of literary criticism that says that the author and the text are separate things. Limiting your reading of a text to the characteristics of the author means there is only a single way to read it and limits your reading to only a single interpretation. Most writers (probably informed by the original essay) will agree that once they write something and it's published and out there that they have no control over how it will be read or interpreted. Folklore like Robin Hood might have an origin that points to an individual that wrote it or orated it, but folklore that old evolves with time and the people that share it. Virgil didn't create the narrative of the Aeneid, but it was adapted from the folklore of Rome's founding myth. We just use his version of it as the basis of it and read it to mean however we want to, despite the fact that it was a propaganda piece.

Oh yeah for sure. I think there's also a strong vein of him being against the Normans so if a rich guy is 'real' English it's okay if Robin Hood is helping him and gently caress other poor people if they're Normans. And just like pirate fiction there's a cachet to someone being an outlaw and getting away with it even if most of what they actually do is poo poo.
