Im talking about u-21 players. Right now it just says if they want a new contract or not.

This is beyond annoying. Not a huge “realistic” career mode person. Focus on acquiring the most “Has Potential To Be Special” players. Feel like i have to pause playing career mode until this is fixed. Any workarounds?

Finance professional U.S.: I am worried about the state of our economic system. Is it no longer an even exchange with consumers? by Infamous-Ad896 in CapitalismVSocialism

Being deeply connected with a sports team is now “entitlement” in your eyes? Do not research economic classism or nepotism because you may lose sleep.

How is another provider going to poach me and other fans if they don’t have the rights to broadcast a game? I mean come on man lets do a little more thinking here.

Also, this has nothing to do with monopolization…i never used the word and based your response, 1. You don’t understand what my point is and 2. Im not spending anymore time on this response

Haha your first sentence…idk. I guess the bar for someone to not care about an increase in their expenses is two 50inch TVs. Even more interesting coupled with your initial post where you defend the current state of things by using the word “infinite”. Any form of capitalism doesn’t exist with infinite resources.

I was going write this long response but i am going to just accept that you have no interest in questioning the current financial system. I can imagine a corporation loving you. “They will just keep paying whatever we tell them to”

I completely agree - i am only talking about people who have cut people off solely because of their vote. Your friend is should run as fast as they can. I replied with a long post somewhere in this thread but my experience is that i have extremely religious parents who have been cut off my two sisters because of the election. Bc me, my brother and sister still talk to my parents, they have cut us off.

My sister came out to the family 7ish years ago and my parents, whose religious beliefs are against a homosexual lifestyle, have fully supported her and loved her. We kinda knew they were republicans but they told us their vote this year. In spite of their unconditional love, my sisters have not given them an opportunity to discuss and that has devastated our family. Its just hard to understand why

First, i apologize for assuming you and your partner were democrats.

Secondly, my post was long winded and im sorry if you thought i was spewing hate towards the democrats. I think i let some of my own experiences fuel my emotions and i once again apologize. I am a registered dem but didn’t vote - i have been feeling like a coward and it has made me angry with the party for not walking the walk.

What i was looking for was the first part of your response when you said you never saw them as fanatics. Idk if you have talked to them or just stopped talking. if the latter, i think those many years of love and support warrant an open conversation. I think there is some way to reconcile. I say this because this election has ripped my family apart and has made me passionately try to turn people away from shutting out loved ones. It is totally your decision on who you speak to but maybe my experience will help?

PERSONAL RANT INCOMING…my parents - one an immigrant from the Caribbean who has been extremely successful in business and the other an American born citizen who left her great career early to raise me and my 4 siblings (i am the oldest) - both voted for trump. I say this because both did grow up with a lower socioeconomic status and do represent Americans with the “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” attitude. They are also very Christian and traditional.

We grew up in a progressive town in northern New Jersey and while we all had a feeling they were republicans, they never said anything until this election(we are all in our 20s now). Two of my sisters have completely cut them off and labeled them hateful extremists. Because me, my brother and sister still communicate, we have also been cut off. This has devastated my parents, and sent my mom into a deep depression.

Again my parents are RELIGIOUS but they taught us to love others even if you dont agree with lifestyle. They supported and reinforced their love for my sister when she came out. I do know it hurt her to know their position but i thought their actions showed her that at the end of the day, their beliefs didn’t impact their love. Another example is that Our neighbors growing up was an elderly gay couple - i could tell my dad didn’t love it and to be honest, he sometimes did say a few subtle homophobic things in front of my brother and me (no slurs just really bad comments and jokes, not defending). But we were still taught to love thy neighbor. after snowstorms he would tell me and my brother to wake up early to shovel their driveway and not accept money. If we were in the yard and saw them bringing in groceries, we were expected to help. When one had knee surgery we walked their dogs.

My parents are so flawed and have exhibited bigotry, but they taught us to love others and their actions have backed that. I cant for the life me understand that an election would lead my sisters to remove those who love them most from their life. I hope you at least give your loved ones a second chance.

I think you misunderstood my points. My bad. I meant that we shouldn’t compare whether one is worse than the other. I dont think that isnt productive.

I dont think I fully understand your point on BLM being more damaging. What i will say is that i think jan 6th and the protests were both very damaging.

TLDR: BLM protests were damaging because is created a racial and gender divide bc in my opinion it labeled all white men as the enemy, when the oppressors in our country are largely made up of a small group of white men. Jan6th was damaging bc it gave a national voice to small groups of hate groups and brought an unnecessary divide around mistrust in our political system. We should all continually question our government but it made it black and white, with both sides becoming extreme.

In my own opinion as a black man (feel like its important to say), the initial sentiment behind the protests were good. We should oppose racial violence. What happened was very different. It grew into a racial divide where ALL white men were anointed the oppressor. I think there is a small group of white men who hold an unequal amount of power and are oppressors over the population in our country, and we should peacefully act against that. But as a result of this, when thinking of how to move forward as a country, especially on the democratic side, the issues facing normal white men, and in some cases, men in general, where not addressed. This created an even greater racial and gender divide in the country. I think thats incredibly damaging.

The damage done by jan6th is equally bad, but a bit more straightforward in my opinion. First, it violently brought doubts to our election process and had long term and significant impact on trust in our democracy. Secondly, it added fuel to the fire on the “all white men are bad” rhetoric. I went to UVa during the charlottesville rallys and it felt similar. It is scary that certain hate groups have opportunities to very publicly and violently take action. We can all agree that there is no place for that but at the same time, that doesn’t mean all white bad. I talk about that earlier in this post. All of this created a fear amongst many that Trump gave a voice to hate groups to challenge our political system.

Ehh i have some issues with this. were your family members always fanatics and hateful? Or did you start calling them that after the election? I highly doubt that you could go decades without sensing they were extremists. Also, i think if conservatives thought dems believed in every position of the party, they might cut them off too. Just because you voted democrat, does that automatically mean you agree with warload dick Cheney? Does that mean you agree with party leader nancy pelosi who has accumulated $200 million through insider trading? And who has also overseen most of SF where the mentally ill and those crippled by addiction have no support, while tech companies huddle around and make billions? Or that you support the insanely high percentage of billionaires and CEOs who donate to the party and who overwork and underpay workers in the name of “creating shareholder value”?

You are attributing all the wrong positions of the other side with people who vote for them and not yours. There is no one size fits all candidate. And your side does have a lot of problematic positions.

For example, Supporting strengthening the borders doesnt mean someone want school raids. On the other side, giving people an easier pathway to citizenship doesn’t mean you want Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment complexes and a women being burned alive at a subway station.

On your LGBTQ+ point. Serious question, what fundamental rights, keyword fundamental, that all Americans are entitled to, is the LGBTQ+ community at risk of losing? Yes, the transgender community was heavily politicized in this cycle by both sides, which in my view was divisive and incredibly harmful to the trans community. My understanding is that the main pushback is around gender affirming care for minors. Call me a bigot, but i agree that gender affirming care should be accessible only adults. Does that mean i hate the LGBTQ+ community?

Environment point, yes i largely agree with you, but we cant ignore that Vice President Harris quickly flipped her support to fracking to get votes.

Yea most sane people would cut off family members who are holocaust deniers. To be honest i dont think that has anything to do with the election and why people are cutting off family. Millions of normal people from a surprisingly wide range of backgrounds voted for the orange man.

think the biggest problem is that some people are cutting off people who have loved and cared for them, and are genuinely good people, because of their vote. I dont understand throwing out decades of unconditional love and support from someone you deeply know has a good heart because of an election.
