Kekekela posted:3. Surprisingly hung up on colleges not giving the Milos and Richard Spencers of the world a platform they're intellectually insecure and upset that their ideology isn't respected or regarded as worthy of study. people love to dress up their reflexive hatred as some kind of movement by using jargon and the other trappings of intellectualism - people who aren't that bright do this all the time to convince each other how smart they are. sort of like spending too much on entry level luxury cars or tract mcmansions to convince people how wealthy you are

Mr Interweb posted:God, that lady was such a loving idiot. More so than the typical Trumpkin. I mean, he clearly spelled out that at least 12 million no, good, dirty illegals were rapists, murderers and drug dealers that were also stealing hard working Americans' jobs. Why would she think her husband would be safe from breaking the law to work in the place of a patriotic REAL murkin? trump voters are mentally immature and lack empathy for people they otherize, this is what makes it very difficult for them to realize that they're being swindled

Hastings posted:I seriously want to know how any of these individuals could believe they never used a govt. social program. What do Republicans consider to be a social program? Is it just anything those 'losers' other than them use? that little citation at the bottom about the submerged state - that's what one professor calls the package of government subsidies that aren't visible to people or easily rationalized. like if you get food stamps, it's hard to say that isn't a government program. but the government permitting you to write off your mortgage interest payments as a deduction on your taxes, is that a government subsidy? (it totally is, but when people - especially wealthier people - say well that's a tax cut, not a subsidy like food stamps, then they're all i earned this the only moral welfare is my welfare etc.)

Unfortunately, and it really pains me to say this, relying exclusively defensive tactics is a losing fight. in such a scenario it is not advisable to have a registered firearm, and your time would be better spent learning to make IEDs and other small explosives from which you can ambush gun havers and take their guns

the us purposely overspending on military stuff and subsidizing the national defense of our allies is a great way to wrap up two separate issues -make friends by giving them free or reduced cost poo poo, like "we will protect you with our massive expensive navy" -keep the MIC happy by providing a reason to spend buckets of money on expensive poo poo like navies this hasn't been so important since the cold war ended but the us still way overspends for these reasons. trump is a huge moron so he's trying to send europe a bill all of a sudden. i wonder if this is part of his nouveau riche cheapassedness, like, if you're way wealthier than your friends why wouldn't you treat them well to nice dinners and vacations and the like? that's how you build up an entourage. but suddenly you turn into a greedy poo poo and send them a bill for the steak dinners and weekend getaways and they wont return your calls now gee i wonder why

Kaal posted:I've been slowly developing the opinion that if rich progressive benefactors like Soros and Buffett really want to start regaining control of the country, the thing to do is to start funding some nonprofits tasked with resettling low-income liberals out of expensive blue states and into urban enclaves in red states. Places like Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Atlanta, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Birmingham, Tucson, Little Rock, and Charleston. all of these places already vote democratic. there's no point to putting more liberals in liberal enclaves, you'd need them to move to rural areas to tip those districts which is even more wildly impractical than whatever nonsense you're pushing here

-Blackadder- posted:Minecraft always seemed like a really interesting game, but I never got into it. One of these days I should give it a shot. Is it goon approved? there are probably better clones of it out there that scratch the same itch, by objective standards minecraft is a bad game but being the originator of a subgenre it's insanely popular, doubly so among kids because it has a lot of attributes attractive to them as someone said above though it is a hugely influential and popular game so it's worth playing a bit just from the perspective of game history

the biggest problem is so many of the systems are incomprehensible without referring to external documentation or watching squeaky voiced youtube tutorials. game systems should be simple enough to grasp intuitively, or if necessary explained through step by step tutorials. too many things in minecraft are opaque, from item recipes to how to build hell portals. if a game isn't a puzzle game but it expects you to engage in tedious trial by error just to 'unlock' more game mechanics then that is bad design

Pellisworth posted:Quick someone tell Trump about how wind turbines kill birds, we can put wind turbines on top of the wall to generate electricity and mulch Mexican rapists! oh he's well aware of how wind kills all your birds "The GOP presidential nominee has stated his preference for coal and natural gas, and has previously said that solar power is unreliable and wind turbines are unsightly and harmful to wildlife. “It’s so expensive,” Trump said of alternative energy at a rally in Pennsylvania. “And honestly, it’s not working so good. I know a lot about solar. I love solar. But the payback is what, 18 years? Oh great, let me do it. Eighteen years,” he said, turning to wind power. “The wind kills all your birds. All your birds, killed. You know, the environmentalists never talk about that.”
