Jesus, this dude is utterly insufferable and a huge idiot. You don't even get to hear much funny ideology because he just kinda shouts over everyone and then edits out their responses.

An angry mob vented its rage against East London hipsters on Saturday night by attacking a cafe and scrawling "scum" on the window. But the establishment wasn't just any cafe—it was a cereal cafe. As in, cereal in a bowl. "It’s senseless violence, isn’t it?" Gary Keery, 33, co-owner of Cereal Killer Cafe, tells the Guardian. "We’ve had some letters through the letterbox saying 'die hipsters' and stuff but nothing to this extreme. It just doesn’t make sense." He says customers and their children hid inside, terrified, while activists (who carried torches and pig heads) threw cereal and red paint at the windows. After customers hid downstairs, members of the mob managed to break in and throw furniture and a smoke bomb inside.

Roughly 200-strong, the protesters called themselves "The F*** Parade" and explained their anti-gentrification stance on a Facebook event page, reports the Independent. "Our communities are being ripped apart—by Russian oligarchs, Saudi Sheiks, Israeli scumbag property developers, Texan oil-money twats and our own home-grown Eton toffs," they write. "We don't want luxury flats that no one can afford, we want genuinely affordable housing." Their protest also left a police officer injured (flying bottle to the face) and a nearby real estate agency damaged. By Sunday, though, Cereal Killer Cafe was back in business, selling over 120 kinds of cereal with more than 20 toppings and 30 kinds of milk, for up to $6.50 a bowl, the CBC reports.

They were at a baseball game. Before smartphone people would just drink themselves into a stupor or make out.
In fact you can argue that going to a sporting event is just as much a rejection of the "real world". Bread and circus and whatnot.

Well, when the last bubble popped I got to watch my home town poo poo itself as tons of people lost their jobs, their homes values went far below what they owed and no one was buying.
They could not move to other areas where there were jobs for them because they had a house shaped anchor.
For myself, I have moved 4 times within the last 2 years for new jobs, I prefer mobility and I will pay the rental premiums for that mobility.

While this girl is dumb, so is Niel.

Niel's argument that if the 1% paid 100% of their income as taxes, they alone could only sustain medicare for 3 years.

Which means if they paid 33% of their income in taxes, they alone could sustain medicare for 1 year.

Which is what we call taxes

Yes, because rich people in the US pay so much tax.

They also had jobs at 13 and were expected to pitch in to keep the family homestead running, in an age when chores were done by hand and people had to preserve food to get through the winter, mend their own clothes, etc.

About a week ago I heard a 31 year old coworker complain that his mom brought home the wrong kind of dipping sauce for his McNuggets. I can't even believe he could have said that out loud in front of adults in a professional job office without any sense of self awareness or shred of shame.

I know times were tough and it was hard to move out in the 19th and early 20th centuries, then it was easy to move out, and now it's hard again. generation x is supposed to be the generation that sees though bullshit, and yet here you all are calling people too poor to move out lazy

But nearly 40% of millennials in a recent survey said eating cereal was "inconvenient…because they had to clean up after eating it." And the fact that young people aren't eating cereal because "bowls don't clean themselves" should worry both cereal companies and "anyone who has a stake in this country's future," according to the Post.

E: point is it's not recommended as "the thing to do" like it was up until 20-30 years ago. Some dr's are of course still do it frequently, but the majority of evidence doesnt support the benefits we thought it held for the mother and her taint
