Rime posted:It’s nice that I can post an amalgamated construct of the BFC Investing thread over the past year of historical equities inflation, phrased for comedic value on this comedy forum, and have the same cohort of goons as last week immediately jump on it as an opportunity to engage in some good old fashioned bullying. i believe that new ban+30 for the same reasons as your proceeding bans on and off the forums indicates you have a problem and need some help. good luck and goonspeed

As part of the Double Cohort™️, the non-OAC kids starting STEM degrees struggled badly, mostly due to having no idea about calculus, whereas I cruised through the first semester (and then struggled in the second when I actually had to pay attention to learn things and forgot how to do that). Since this was nearly 20 years ago, my conclusion is that I'm old and out of touch and have no opinion on what kids these days should do

I just wish someone in high school would have told me "just take X and enroll in Y and you will get a decent job that pays a living wage as a Z" (and been telling the truth) it's incredibly stupid to make a big deal out of asking children what they "want to do" for a living when they know drat loving well almost nobody grows up doing what they want and everyone just wants a job that'll pay the bills and not destroy their mental health

They asked people what they wanted to do and everything was some flavour of "there's no jobs in that field", "there's jobs but you there's very intense competition", "the classes are very very hard", "you won't get in". Extremely lame, just bummed everyone out for an entire year. I was already a depressed burn out so having confirmation that there was no hope was cool as hell. anyway that was 15 years ago and today i make 8% above minimum wage and will never afford rent, nevermind own my place

"He didn't actually say that in that post, all he did was allude to the toxic ideology that is on full display in dozens of other posts he's made that we're all aware of. Learn to read!"

Saying "I fully expect X to happen" does not mean "I endorse X happening" and you lot keep saying it does which is part of why Rime gets such a bad rap. I mean yes I also believe our response to climate change is going to be the first world perpetuating the wholesale slaughter of millions of not billions of people in the developing world, but that doesn't mean I'm looking forward to it. If I were I would be in a much better place emotionally.

Rime posted:If only it had a mortality rate of 20-30% and spread a little faster, this virus would have been the best thing to happen to the planet in a century. Edit: To be clear, there's a lot to say about Rime's eco-doomerism largely being correct, and I definitely think that it's possible that people view those posts through a lens of increased discomfort because of the accuracy and validity of the disastrous ecological realities that we live in that he readily describes. I just think it's possible to talk about those things without subtly suggesting that lots of people of specific ethnic groups are less valuable than others and should probably die, as has been the case several times.

You again see accepting an inevitability as endorsing it. Our world is possibly going to be devoid of most complex life in a matter of centuries if we continue to allow the third world to attempt to attain the same standard of living we have and the carbon footprint that comes with this. Once more people accept this reality we will see widespread adoption of suppression of developing nations. We should have never reached the rate of consumption we currently have and as a society we're going to murder millions as a matter of policy once we realize that it's the only way we'll be able to hang on to our way of life for another generation or two. It's going to be as horrifying as it is inevitable.

No you're going to see tremendous suffering and pain in the developed world as well, and it sure as hell won't take two generations. We already have tens of thousands of wandering homeless from the last few disasters, that number will be hundreds of thousands and millions before too long. Maybe even this summer, looks like a scorcher. You're just delusional if you think you can seal off your little slice of heaven and be all set. Nowhere is safe.

Ya but it's endorsing death without singling out a specific creed or culture. From a global ecological standpoint yes the more of humanity that dies of a disease we are allowing to run rampant because we collectively refused to allow as many people to stay at home and watch tv as possible, the better.

There are several other posts where, both explicitly and contextually, he's referring to specific groups of people, often delineated along ethnic lines. Again, the people who have read these posts are capable of remembering them, and even if you're a person with a severely atrophied hippocampus, you can just go back to his rap sheet and read several of the posts that he's been probed/banned for.
