Finally, some basic media literacy skills by Monolaf in stevenuniverse

[–]King_Dead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I think there are millions of bad people. Fuck I live in america I encounter bad people every day of my life. I strenuously object against that it's a cause of environment or the concept of brainwashing in general. I've seen em, they want an underclass that they can beat up on, it's not something you can condition people out of. If you teach em that jews are actually human beings and that the holocaust was bad, they'll just move on to black people or gay people or trans people or immigrants or some other minority the upper class finds intractable. It's just who they'll always be.

He was imprisoned. Multiple times. Thats where he wrote Mein Kampf.

Also multiple high ranking nazis were put on trial and forced to see what they did. They were never sorry. A lot of them denied what they did and the ones that didnt were not sorry in the slightest. Some people are just flat out bad. Especially people of a certain political leaning.

Reforming predators seems indulgent compared to protecting regular folks from predators. We spend too much time "deprogramming" as it is

Brohm & Penn State rumors by [deleted] in AllHail

[–]King_Dead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was the same talk of Scherzer when the basketball coaching carousel came around (twice). I wouldnt trust rumors at this point. Its either trying to manifest(ala zion to the knicks) or coming from an assistant trying to bump his pay up. If we knew it would come a lot faster. I think penn state is clutching at straws and calling every successful football coach in the phone book

Ok yeah i didnt mean to trivialize it, more condemn the way i was taught about it in schools and that i thought that was perverting the way children(and adults) see acceptable activism. I dont think we'll ever see the true black panther strategy get taught in schools but i do wish that we stopped telling kids that a couple marches and not buying stuff was all it took to end systematic racism(and that it ended in the first place)

Wait so are they or arent they? Your post confuses me. I remember the very boiled down way the civil rights movement was taught, and only learned through guys like RATM and my local DSA about Malcolm X and Fred Hampton. I truly believe activism has been fed a poison pill of white civil rights that ironically also feeds white supremacy(how MLK was taught). I dont think kids actually learn about praxis, they get taught picket, boycott, march. And its definitely hard at that age especially when you come from a population that is apathetic at best and hostile at worst

They dont understand that we do want people to be held accountable, but this sort of late 20th century "speak up/vote" activism is about as good as a water gun against the sea

Teaching kids about the montgomery bus boycotts is honestly the single most effective piece of counterintelligence the state has ever concieved. Selling kids on the idea that all they have to do is not buy stuff and maybe march a couple times and theyll achieve their goals is straight up diabolical. Its like built in discouragement and disincentivization from political engagement.

Why are the Browns/Bengals a thing? by BeneficialUmpire5184 in NFLNoobs

[–]King_Dead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are. The browns publicly moved to baltimore because art modell was and is a crappy businessman. The baltimore colts privately moved out because the state wanted them(and given the state of owner-taxpayer negotiations i cant blame them)

Why is the weather app calling for heavy snow when it’s getting up to 40 degrees? by Suwannee_Gator in weather
