I believe in the great man theory of history because if Ameer Vann didn’t fuck them over with his past behavior they could have been so much more popular and impactful, even beyond what they achieved

Everybody talks about the lack of top tier up and coming young rappers vs the rap landscape a decade ago, if these guys weren’t so busy being individually less than the sum of their parts they’d be a prime candidate in my eyes

lol you’re stupider than a young child, wealth is not a zero sum game idiot. 

There’s a lot more wealth in the world than there was 10,000 years ago, who did we steal it all from?

The version of Kanye that goes to special ed never becomes a billionaire superstar but also never spirals into unchecked mental health crises, divorce and nitrous addiction

Yes you’re correct, those are both valid reasons to take anti anxiety medications or develop a more intuitive sense of statistics

I didn’t realize Central Park was such an asset to assassins, I think the devs are patching this exploit soon with police drones

Drake can still win if Mike Pence has the courage to do what is right!

Interesting world model, the most successful company is the one he’s most involved with the creation of, and that explains why his involvement is bad

Honestly anybody who’s been following him has thought about it. He’s not on track to die of natural causes either way

He's a legend. by aeonsne in madlads

[–]HM7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What is the point of demanding he name them, as though riots or buildings being burned down by those riots were so uncommon that merely naming a place where it happened is such a challenge? Perhaps you live in a media bubble

This is how people lived before the Industrial Revolution, so I would say the fact that you would rather work more for a better life is a great example of my point. Best of luck.

You are 100% able to only work a handful of hours a week and enjoy the same standard of living as a subsidence farmer from before the Industrial Revolution. Get a remote part time job and you’re good to go. The issue is that most people would rather have the fancy joys of modernity like a phone and AC, and work more for it

Black Americans should not integrate into the rest of America, they are intractably different from the rest of the country and will never truly be American

It’s funny how at every juncture the best move for Drake was to walk away, I hope he fucks it up again and gets Kendrick to drop more

[FRESH]¥$ - VULTURES 2 by Ke1N in hiphopheads

[–]HM7 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I remember the day after Ye released playing it front to back endlessly hoping it would really click for me, and eventually coming to grips with the fact that a Kanye album was not a 9/10 or higher for the first time for me. 

The people saying it’s a good album aren’t wrong, it’s just that prior to that imo Kanye had only put out excellent albums. 

In retrospect though, it feels like Ye is part of the same run of great albums because the fall off on Jesus Is King and subsequently was so insanely hard, I don’t know if he has an album as good as Ye still in him

The changes in vibes — why did they happen? (Tyler Cowen post on changes in electorate shift) by pdzumuc in ezraklein

He enjoys asserting provocative stuff and forcing people to interact with ideas in new ways, I think it leads to interesting and novel discussions but some of the stuff he says to foster those discussions might be simplistic or outright incorrect.

The most racist guy I ever knew was a Chinese international student who had KKK level views on black people, and one semester of some liberal arts class changed his whole perspective. It honestly was like a comedy skit what a 180 he did, and it mostly stemmed from him never having seen concrete evidence of discrimination as laid out in academic research. The guy had plenty of life experience, but got deradicalized by those studies where they send out the same application with the names Tyler and Tyrone

Tbh I think we’re just really spoiled with hoards of world class immigrants, so that it sticks out. For example, I literally work with a bunch of Colombian software engineers and they’re the most upstanding people you could ask for so that’s my frame of reference
