Wasn't destroying and leaving a country pretty much exactly what we did with Germany after WWI? I don't have my notes on me so I can't do the *shuffles notes* thing, but didn't it not go well?

We have the capability to make San Jose's first Cup Champion.

The Sharks could be that Champion.

It's not so much that Germany was destroyed and left, as that punitive post-war economic policies crippled its ability to rebuild (structurally or economically), massively hurt its populace, and cratered public sentiment about the rest of the world.

Yeah and it worked out great. Germany invented Trance and Electroclash music, and had a couple rough patches between then and when we left, but it all worked out great. Thanks us!

i can't t find the tweet now and i don't particularly want to find it, but everytime these weirdos talk about how unfairly white people are treated at <something> they're just completely giving the game away.

even assuming good faith that they really believe that what is happening is "unfair", that means then that when previously people were discussing how minorities were being unfairly treated in that field or in that situation, they acknowledge then that being treated a certain way due to your skin color is unfair, yet still deny that _that_ specific unfair treatment actually occurs or is actually unfair. (note i am not saying i agree with them in that white people are being treated unfairly in... video games?)

and so they think the part where they got all the "liberals" is that _now_ that white people are in a similar situation, then we now have to help them defend against the unfairness that's happening to white people... because i guess the implication is is that you'd be a hypocrite if you didn't come out against unfairness to white people?

yet they know liberals treat them "unfairly" due to "DEI" initiatives, being "too woke" and all that. so if the "liberals" are really do what they say they're doing.. why would liberals ever give a poo poo either way about "white" people in the manner that they're expecting. it's as though they don't really care about any of this and it's just grievance politics for them...

also please stop calling Linda Yacca a DEI hire. that's really offensive since you're going with the chud definition of what DEI is. DEI is for giving people who are well-qualified for the position but may be overlooked due to inherent bias in the process of white america a chance to actually get noticed. Linda is not at all well-qualified for her job.

Yeah, "DEI" is basically the banner word for "anyone who is not me" and has a wildly shifting and defectively ineffable definition just like "woke" does. On the societal level it's like watching cats chase a laser pointer.

And yes I realize the History Books thread would be the place to ask, but since the topic came up I figured a few posters might have recommendations at hand. Apologies for making GBS threads up the poo poo Man thread with academic minutiae, goons.

Make sure you look into all the poo poo surrounding the fact that the various Catholic editions of the Bible have five more books than the more "traditional" versions used by Protestants. After the Reformation, the Catholic church added five books to the canon that had previously been rejected for various reasons. They essentially hoped to keep their believers from converting to Protestant denominations by releasing The Bible: Director's Cut

Since the mid 1930s, starting with the Nazis, we've had the following terms that mean the exact same thing to the right:
- Judeo Bolshevism
- Cultural Marxism
- Political Correctness
- Social Justice
- Woke
- DEI

i.e.: "something that isn't entirely (marketed towards/is designed for the benefit of) straight white cis men".

Very briefly summed up, that was the original Nazi dogwhistle for "those perfidious jews are the reason why you're not rich".

'CRT' was such a brief moment comparatively. And it was mostly used as a "YOUR KIDS ARE BEING TAUGHT CRT" kinda thing rather than an all-pervasive, worldwide threat like the way the dumbasses say "woke" (see: Elon Musk constantly saying stupid poo poo like "woke mind virus")

Also they stick to doing it online because they melt in the face of any kind of reasonable counterargument.

Was stuck in a waiting room today with a guy complaining about undocumented immigrants getting $2000 a week in benefits, I told him that as a US citizen that it seemed like it would be an awesome idea to just wander in and lie about being undocumented for $2000 a week. How hard could it be? Not like they’re verifying anything about me, right?

Amazingly, since he didn’t have someone else’s talking points to parrot back at me about it, he kind of shut up after that.
