Youtube is usually way too easy, but this one is perfect.



To be fair, Stromae's song "papaoutai" keeps it ambiguous and even implies his dad is still alive:

quote:

Elle dit qu'il n'est jamais très loin
Qu'il part très souvent travailler
Maman dit travailler c'est bien
Bien mieux qu'être mal accompagné
Pas vrai?

Or, loosely translated by me,

quote:

She says he's never far away
That he's often gone to work
Mom says working hard is good
A lot better than being badly married
Right?

But his "like a lot of black/half-black kids" is pretty drat salty regardless.

I don't get it either. I was playing cards against humanity with a group of friends a couple months ago and one of the cards was about "The Friend zone" we all had a good laugh, until one woman asked what it meant. 90% of the room being women/aware human beings explained it.

She tried to tell us "No, that's a real thing!" :psyduck:

I've heard women claim it's an actual thing. Categorizing dudes into small "friends" "not friends" "potential lovers" compartments in their minds.

Apparently the friend zone is when you know a dude is crushing on you but you still keep him around as a friend for favors? :shrug:

I guess so? I mean I was under the misguided impression that men and women can be friends without there being anything vaguely sexual or romantic involved and that spending time with people whose company you enjoy is enough in and of itself. But then again I haven't taken the "Red Pill" so :shrug:

When I help a dudebro out with his studies, I'm a friend, but when I do the same to a girl, she's taking advantage of me and I'm totally friendzoned, bro. :shrug:

I can understand this sentiment amongst dudes that have the feeling girls are taking advantage of their feelings but hearing it from the mouth of a girl was a verbal slap to the proverbial face.

The easiest way to shoot down this poo poo and hear the crickets is going "If it came down to it and your partner suddenly became irrationally violent towards you and you were in a hand to hand fight, how many women reading this think they can overpower their boyfriend and subdue them? Alright how about the vice versa for men?"

Like if someone is being pushed around or berated in public by someone who is a threat to them people generally will either help them or at least call it out. It's almost like men aren't really afraid of women unless they pull out a knife or something, even when they're angry, and both men and women know this. Meanwhile women are terrified of men and often suffer serious injury from them and both men and women know this.

I'm not sure where you're going with this. Violence against someone is okay or even funny if the victim looks like they might be stronger than the aggressor?

Don't you know? Any and every high-profile celebrity death was obviously perpetrated by the Illuminati.

It always confuses me when people get angry at the illuminati. From wikipedia:

Historically, the name refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on May 1, 1776. The society's goals were to oppose superstition, prejudice, religious influence over public life and abuses of state power, and to support women's education and gender equality.

uh, you know there are real medical conditions that require circumcision's to fix them right?

My cousin got an infection that required one back when we were both around 16/17, and I cannot express enough how glad I was to be in a position where I would never have that happen. He described the experience of getting an infection around there as being like getting punched in the dick ever 5 seconds.

There's a difference between circumcision for medical reasons, which is practice in every civilized country, and circumcision for aesthetic reasons, which is what happens only in the US of A.

And we should now drop the discussion because arguing about child mutilation on SA makes us the idiots on social media.

Female relative defending Hobby Lobby, because of Christianity or something...



As a European, can somebody please quickly explain what the Hobby Lobby is and what the hell is going on? From what little I gathered from this and the crazy political emails thread, it seems like the feds want companies to offer insurance for birth control to their employees or whatever, parallel to other health insurance? And the employers refuse this on religious grounds?

I have no idea how insurance works in the USA for that matter. Do employers have to offer insurance? Are they the only ones who have to? The only ones who can?
I'm so confused by the whole ordeal because to me it just seems so natural for health care to be subsidized by the government without really involving employers all that much.

http://www.dailystormer.com/western-feminists-attack-indians-for-photoshoot-glamorizing-gang-rape/

Is the daily stormer some neonazi site or really painful satire or what?

quote:

A fashion shoot in India is coming under international fire for featuring a woman getting groped by men on a bus, apparently purposefully referencing the infamous 2012 Delhi gang-rape case.

The feminists are having seizures.

...

What the glamorization of a rape scene shows is that rape is a deeply embedded, genetically-determined aspect of Indian sexuality. These people are not the same as us, and their minds do not function in the same way. Just as animals “rape” one another as a normal method of breeding, so do many humans.

But the feminist blogosphere is outraged by the images. Because outrage is their livelihood.

...

It is ridiculous that the White Western World wishes to enforce their morality on these savage brown people. Morality is a function of the social order, designed to make it work. If Indians can maintain a functional social order while celebrating gang-rape, whose business is that? Some teenage feminist on Tumbler? Even if they can’t maintain their social order by promoting gang-rape, whose problem is that?

...

Why do we think it is our job to go fix these people? Is there anything more condescending than going to brown countries and trying to tell the people how to live their lives? Isn’t that the exact same thing that the evil White colonizers get accused of doing?

If it is different, liberals, than what exactly is the difference?

...

Your only possible argument would be that feminist morality is objectively better than Christian morality, and that would be a fallacy because by definition morality is an abstraction which can only be deemed objective in nature when being defined by an stable social paradigm. In other words, inflicting any type of moral imperative on a foreign culture is a condescending social invasion.

Another difference is that during the colonial period, we didn’t already know that it is impossible to get brown people to abide by civilized Western codes of conduct. We now have hundreds of years of this fact being repeatedly demonstrated. End your Jihad against thousands of years old perverted Indian weirdness, and do something about the black rape epidemic in America, or the Muslim rape epidemic in Europe.


And the Indian photoshoot are also the idiots.

There's a surprising number of people who will agree that yes, rape is bad, and then proceed to agree that there are situations in which it's okay to have sex with a person who doesn't want it, as long as the questions don't actually contain the word "rape."

Women as well, oddly enough. I know a surprising amount of guys who had drunk sex with a sober woman and everyone claimed it was A-okay, even though those guys clearly felt violated. People in general need to be taught that rape isn't only committed by strangers in an alley at gunpoint.

Fake edit: reminds me of a poll I took about crime at my campus. One of the statements amounted to "I have never raped somebody" which almost everyone gave the highest score of agreement on, and then it was followed by a bunch of statements that pretty clearly implied rape (e.g. I have never had sex with a drunk person" or "I believe it is okay for a person to force their partner to have sex with them if they have been dating for a long time") and the results differed. :negative:

Anything with limited liability is a (fictive) person for the purpose of handling how they acquire and sell goods and services, and to make a distinction between their interests and their shareholders' personal interests. Of course this should be limited to things that make sense, not giving them a religion or anything. I don't understand how anyone could think of corporate entities as anything other than legal fictions for the purpose of regulating economic agents but there you have it.

The "taxation is theft" argument always confused me any way. Why are people so against their own interests? The USA is the only place where I've seen poor people complain about rich people having to pay taxes.

I'm also a (Scottish) immigrant in the Netherlands and yes the racism is super blatant. The Dutch will love to tell you how wonderfully tolerant they are. Just bring up the M word (Moroccans) to watch them turn into the most unbelievable racists.

In Scotland it's also super racist though - it just feels a little less alarming I guess because there is hardly any ethnic diversity in Scotland whereas here in NL (in the randstadt anyway) it is REALLY mixed.

I guess the difference is that most Europeans won't outright harm immigrants but just complain a lot about them, but Americans shoot them and imprison people for their skin color, regardless of where they were born.
