But anyway, they are talking about VR porn and how it's a waste of collective money when mankind could be spending it on something more worthwhile....like curing baldness. And pan into Tim's stupid beanie hat he never takes off.

Professorjuggalo posted:yeah she shouldn’t have aired it out but everything she’s saying and that professors website/response makes it a bit less cut and dried than ‘she’s trying to throw the professor under the bus cause of idpol gone too far’ I'd probably be on her side more if she hadn't aired her instant rage that he is white and gone looking for something to complain about. She demands there be at least 1 black author or she's gonna call him out, so she checks and finds there is 1 (and other minorities) but decides to rage about it anyway, posting his name and place of employment for people to try and get him fired. His email was less professional than it should have been but we don't see the email it's responding to, if she was half as snarky in her initial email as she's been on twitter then it's more understandable but we have no context. He's teaching a class with 50% minority authors in the reading list so I'm wiling to believe he's coming from a place of good faith even if his choices could be improved on. She on the other hand comes across to me as just chasing clout. Mega Comrade has issued a correction as of 15:12 on Sep 1, 2020 |

Inceltown posted:Everyone is skipping over the fact that Rogan is getting paid $100mm for this. There is no way that his bullshit is worth a fraction of a faction of that. Its not about just Rogan, its about making spotify thee podcast app. Weirdly Spotify only want to do this with exclusives, they are quite happy at being one of the worse podcast apps to actually use.

Christ that's a blast from past, I forgot he was a thing. I suppose since "new atheism" kinda died, and there ate only so many Anita Sarkesian videos you can do, he's struggled to remain relevant.

You're probably thinking of Britain as a union. England has existed as a country since 927 AD. Edit clearly my knowledge of Rome sucks. Mega Comrade has issued a correction as of 18:59 on Sep 15, 2020 |

please knock Mom! posted:The tweet is dumb but archeologists absolutely exploit hierarchical colonial ties between countries or just the fact some countries are economically forced to sell permits for pennies. Abolish the British museum too The various other museums in the UK are making progress on this, either by returning items or arranging some kind of payment (monetary or exhibit exchange) to keep them as a 'loan' from the country of origin. The British museum however wants to only loan out its exhibits but legally still retain ownership. There was an article in the telegraph (up market right-wing paper) which tried to make the argument that giving this stuff back would be "denying Britain's history" like some kind of reverse double woke principle "if we don't keep the stolen stuff people won't know we stole it, which is bad!" because for some reason the only way to teach about British colonial past is through displaying the spoils.

That doesn't seem to be her point though. She doesn't seem to mention repatriation anywhere, Her point seems to be that we should let the people buried in these tombs rest in peace, that they shouldn't be explored and excavated and we only do it because "white people say we should". If Egypt want to excavate Egyptian tombs to put the artifacts into Egyptian museums then it's their right.

Zulily Zoetrope posted:There is a case to be made about colonialism re: the Egyptians currently residing in Egypt and the ones who built those tombs. I mean, unless you're also of the opinion that US institutions have a unilateral right to dig up Native burial grounds for whatever reasons they deem proper. There is a common misconception that modern Egypt is both biologically and culturally majority Arabic. Modern Egyptians are majority northern African descended so are the closest thing to ancient Egyptians we have. They have more right to those tombs than anyone alive today. The same isn't remotely true for US institutions. Mega Comrade has issued a correction as of 14:41 on Oct 7, 2020 |
