justicezyx 26 minutes ago [–] Yep, and the downside of having a kid is very low. Basically, if one decide to go with public education system, the expense is low. And one has the choice to divorce or engage less with the child if he does not want to be with them. Although morally that's quite bad behavior. And when they grow into high school, they'll actively drive the parents out of their social circles. Finally in college, you are free...

How did American “wokeness” jump from elite schools to everyday life? (economist.com) babyshake 3 hours ago | parent | favorite | on: How did American “wokeness” jump from elite school... It definitely seems as though specifying your preferred gender pronouns is no longer optional. This is required "in solidarity". Being an otherwise progressive person, I don't feel great about this and how quickly it happened. serverholic 4 hours ago [flagged] | parent | favorite | on: How did American “wokeness” jump from elite school... I think this is the result of the gradual femininization of our culture. It started with the feminist/gender-studies types and slowly caught on. Not because people necessarily wanted to change, but cancel culture makes it so that you can't risk nonconforming. At first it was little things like switching to softer language and giving kids participation trophies so that they don't feel bad. Now it's spread to the point that they feel the need to invent words like Latinx just in case a couple of latinos feel left out. tazjin 3 hours ago | parent | favorite | on: How did American “wokeness” jump from elite school... I recommend anyone who spends a lot of time thinking about this type of thing to take a break for a few months in a country that doesn't indulge it, e.g. Russia.

ffggvv 1 hour ago [–] unlike socialists i think the price of labor is simply the price at which someone accepts working for someone else, agree to by both parties. my price is exceptionally high because i’m highly skilled and intelligent and in demand and the market sets a price for that. if someone has zero discernible skills but the government interferes and pays them more for doing nothing at home than their labor is worth then that’s the issue. my pay is based off supply and demand not stealing and mooching or government fiat and i don’t have the arrogance or tyrranical nature to presume i know the optimal price better than the market does

Xik posted:How did American “wokeness” jump from elite schools to everyday life? (economist.com) Argh! These kind of statements are pretty much never true! Unless you're a HN creep who probably posts men's rights stuff online, nobody cares about what you *don't* have on your bio. And whenever someone says "I'm otherwise a progressive person" means they at most only support legalized weed.

andyxor 40 minutes ago | parent [–] | on: How did American “wokeness” jump from elite school... I for one welcome the rise in "trans" conversions and lgbtq in general, let humans exclude themselves from genetic pool if that's what they want, this is net positive from climate change perspective as the Earth is overpopulated. The Nature heals itself in mysterious ways.

exporectomy 12 hours ago | parent [–] | on: Facebook apology as AI labels black men 'primates' If a human did it with intent to offend, they would. But if a black person genuinely looked like a primate to human eyes, that would be pretty lovely to fire the poor worker who had no way of knowing. Here, the AI isn't trying to offend so maybe there should be no consequences and people should stop demanding severe punishment for minor accidental insults.

jelliclesfarm 40 minutes ago [–] This simply isn’t true. Women have always known how to terminate unwanted pregnancies safely. But that knowledge was lost when we advertised our sexual freedom in the name of feminism. Birth rate has grown exponentially after the pill and various methods of medical termination. Women’s reproductive rights have become a cash cow and a political third rail. Not to mention religion. Here is the best kept secret: we were always free. The secret was that women never let the others know about it. Now everything is ruined with ..what is it now?…fourth wave of feminism?
