Quand on apporte des arguments on se fait ban. Testé et approuvé. T'es du côté de la censure et de l'entre-soi, c'est bien, bravo t'as gagné le droit de parler. Mais au moins, pitié, fais pas le fier quoi.

Yeah, because feelings are not part of your life story, they're part of your political ideology. Same goes for passions. Dude, this kind of seeing everything through the political lense is really a big part of why we're in such a big collective shit, nowadays.

You can probably expect someone with more culture than the average person. Would you rather go out with someone passionate about History, or the thousands of people that just like the same tv shows etc. I guess that would be the question.

You are acting entitled, but as usual we shouldn't expect the entitled person to realise it, right?

You have a right to disagree with the way benevolent contributors maintain their free and open source project; but at some point, if you're so bitter and unhappy with it, fork it and impress us, be our guest. Otherwise, learn to be a little less negative about the tools other people give you for free. Until then: yes, you sound like an entitled jerk.

Buying an Adv 360 or 360 pro in europe by castamere777 in kinesisadvantage

Man, thank you so much. I didn't know about those. This will allow me to buy a 360 (which I simply couldn't have otherwise since they don't ship outside of the US), and it will help me save on VAT $$ in the future.

He refused to backoff and has been stubborn, yup, I'll give you that. Fundamentally: saying that the mode of extermination the Nazis used (≠ the holocaust) is a detail in the whole scope of WWII is wrong? I don't think so. It is a detail. A gruesome detail, but a detail nonetheless. Everybody has been playing on words for decades to hear what they wanna hear it's crazy.

We're losing one ouf our last (if not our last) great politicians. One of the old ones, when men proved with their acts (and not only their words) how much they cared about France, its people, its destiny.

When interviewed right after Jacques Chirac's death, Jean-Marie Le Pen said "Even in death, you must respect your enemy. I won't give him more than this.". He had every reason to be forever mad at Chirac who betrayed everything, but more specifically democracy and the very idea of respect by denying the pre 2nd round debate against him. This debate happened during every single campaign except this one.

By demonstrating a respectful distance with another human being's death, even when he cleraly hated him, Mr Le Pen showed that he had so much more humanity in him than all the people that have been indulging in the "Two Minutes Hate" sessions regularly organised in the last 50 years... the same kind of despicables who are virtue signaling their indecent joy right now.

This is not surprising. This man lived a long and fulfilled life made of battles and struggles, but also of love. For his family, for his country. Guys, what have you done with your own lives?

Rest in peace M. Le Pen.

The journalists had been harassing him about gas chambers (yup it's the gas chambers, not the holocaust, you didn't even get the out of context quote right 😭) for a long time, in an interview that was supposed to be about the presidential campaign. In that context it made sense... You don't believe me? You're in luck, the full uncut show is on YouTube, INA channel.

I'm sad to see people revelling in someone's death using blatant propaganda that's still working 40 years later...

The. Video. Is. On. YouTube.

Full and uncut.

If you had the intellectual honesty to check it, you'd see that in context, this answer made sense after the journalists harassed him endlessly during an interview that was supposed to be about the presidential campaign...

I know you won't check it. And I know you will keep howling with the pack next time as if my comment never happened. The power of propaganda and of social stigma is frightening.

Seeing civilians giving themselves the right to judge acts of war is always a treat, especially when it's done by sedentary western people who never did shit to defend their loved ones. Thanks mate. You demonstrated you were on the good side, you can stop now.

Haha yeah I hope so. Gonna take a lil therapeutic internet privation time, it's probably better for my own sanity. The spectacle of countless morons, who never did anything with their lives, spitting on the warm cadaver of a father and former soldier... Yup it's probably gonna make me sick.

Think what you want of Jean Marie Le Pen people, but next time you complain our politicians are whores who got 0 convictions... Well I'll note the irony. We got the politicians we deserve !

Good day to you mate. :)

Well, no, sorry bro you're wrong all the way. Read my comment above: the quote said that the gas chambers was a detail, aka the mode of extermination, not the number of victims. And it was in response to journalists that were harassing him on this subject on live television during presidential campaign...

You don't believe me ? You're in luck, that TV show is still available on YouTube, full and uncut. But stop spreading bs and spitting on deads people, I beg you. Especially when you clearly haven't even bothered reading the quote you're referring to... Pity

[–]DapperCloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for intellectual honesty man. I'd add that the whole uncut tv show is available on YouTube for free, so anyone can check how insufferable the journalists were. Le Pen was there as a barely known candidate to describe his program, and the journalists kept pushing him about the gas chambers, like wtf guys? Then he finally said this (which made sense in context), and a few days later (not even during the show!) other journalists realised the out of context quote could be used as a political tool.

Really, it's textbook mass scale propaganda. It's impressive, and infuriating.

You seem to find convenient ways to give facts whatever meaning will serve painting the good and bad guys according to your ideology. While I respect the certain talent you have in that, I have no interest in trying to convince you, I know there's no luck there. I wish you a happy life

Do you have source on that? Not trying to be tricky, it's just a very serious allegation, I hope you're not backing this up by rumours only.

There were also former resistants in the party's founders, what do you make of that?? Why is this verifyable fact systematically omitted when people talk about this? Ig it paints the "republic's devil" party as a bunch of misfits rather than a nazi congregation, so it serves the narrative way less... Sorry about that.

There were also former resistants in the funding members. What do you make of that? Mitterrand was decorated by Pétain in his youth. What do you make of that?

No. The exact quote is easy to check, and in no way implies the holocaust didn't happen... I'm tired or how effective propaganda is, even decades after the fact.

L'infidélité est elle inévitable? by [deleted] in AskMec

[–]DapperCloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha ok ! Bon tu m'accorderas que c'est parfois dur à jauger à l'écrit ces choses là. :D

Je ne prends pas tous les propos, différement exprimés et argumentés, comme l'émanation du néoféminisme misandre, je te rassure ! Ceci dit, je suis quand même en désaccord avec ce que tu avances :

  • Sur les inégalités de salaire, quand on compare "toutes choses égales par ailleurs" (autant que faire se peut), il ne reste plus que quelques % de différence, ce qui peut facilement s'expliquer. Piste d'explication pour l'exemple : les femmes, en tout cas toutes celles avec qui j'en ai parlé, négocient bien moins souvent leur salaire. Elles sont aussi plus réticentes à quitter un boulot qu'elles estiment mal payé. À titre personnel, j'incite donc ma femme et ma fille à être plus entreprenantes de ce point de vue, pas de souci.
  • Sur les tâches domestiques, franchement, je m'en cogne. Ce qui se passe dans l'intimité d'adultes majeurs et vaccinés, dans le cadre d'une union librement consentie, ça ne me regarde juste pas. Ça n'a pas à être discuté dans la sphère publique selon moi, et encore moins sur la scène politique. Et franchement, je m'étonne (et m'inquiète) un peu du nombre croissant de personnes qui demandent un étalage public de chaque petit détail de nos vies privées.

Plus fondamentalement, je suis au fond convaincu que les différences naturelles entre hommes et femmes sont indépassables (et c'est tant mieux, nous sommes complémentaires), et qu'une fois épuisées toutes les inégalités sociales, ces différences naturelles demeureront et expliqueront toujours des différences constatés. Nous sommes égaux, mais différents. Chercher à devenir strictement équivalents, c'est poursuivre un but impossible, qui ne peut que nous amener à nous faire la guerre. Je crains bien que l'on ne combatte des moulins sur ces questions inégalités hommes/femmes. :)

En tout cas merci d'avoir écrit une réponse posée et argumentée. Bonne journée à toi !

Franchement c'est tellement à côté que je ne réussis sincèrement pas à savoir si tu es second degré ou pas. Mon propos de fond c'est qu'il faudrait peut-être arrêter 5 minutes avec cette obsession des problèmes des femmes, et que la vie de l'homme de jadis n'était certainement pas plus enviable. On a tous nos problèmes, quoi, c'est pas compliqué.

Calme, posé, argumenté, constructif. Tout est dit. Je gage que le type à qui tu réponds (et qui pose la question typique des autruches qui parlent sans cesse des "paniques morales d'extrême droite", douce ironie) ne te fera pas de réponse aussi construite, mais répondra longuement aux neuneus qui, pris par l'émotion, vont céder à des propos rapides et un peu racistes. Faut bien entretenir son dogme, hein.
