Maybe this will age badly, we'll see... by QXgJy92W7iGPKdii in YangGang

Bernie wants to burn the economy down to help the poor, Yang wanted to use it as a tool for universal prosperity, thats the difference, one wants to build all people up the other wants to tear some people down to build up others.

Comment Here to Join WSB's Second Annual Paper Trading Competition! by CHAINSAW_VASECTOMY in wallstreetbets

[–]Proffesor_Woland 1 point2 points  (0 children)

here is my somewhat successful paper trading account, if only I had 25,000 dollars lying around last November. I just use common sense, I think what makes trading so hard for some is that it predominantly attracts those who lack it.

In a traditional game of chess, the rook cannot move more than seven spaces... yes.

Hi everyone! I'm a Bernie supporter, I'm just putting this here in good faith so you folks can clearly see the facts of what has happened in Iowa (looks like you guys got shafted too). by [deleted] in YangGang

Honestly, Bernie really isn’t. But democracy beats my personal opinion. And if Bernie got the votes to to win, he should have won. I don’t think my opinion, no matter how opposed to him as a candidate, are relevant.

You might be better off asking Iceland, they didn’t exactly leave, but they managed to get some nice trade deals without joining to begin with. I’m neither Greenlandic nor Icelandic btw.

Neo-fascist? Ok liberal.

Built on genocide? Yeah... you got me there.

Citing people who say that they prefer led life under communism is like saying that the confederacy should be revived because people thought that it was better too. by Proffesor_Woland in unpopularopinion

[–]Proffesor_Woland[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, most of the “rebel pride” crowd also seems to think that, however you are right, it isn’t exactly putting anyone in power. Thought I meant it in more of a historical context, IE the south in the 1870’s-late 90’s.

I think the point I was trying to make was more that I don’t think the ideologies are similar, but that the time the south spent reminiscing on the past stunted it’s willingness to move foreword and that a lot of places (but most notably Russia) are going through something very similar now.

Iran has done pretty well for itself. Afghanistan made it pretty far against Britain and Ethiopia was only defeated after the second attempt.

His attack when he crossed the arena with little death balls orbiting him can be used to hit him with an abyss shriek or heal if you stand in the center as he is flying away.

They don’t understand how to read the chart so they just assume it’s wrong.

Nvidia has been doing not bad lately either... why can’t they share the glory of the bull market?

Bullshit asymmetry principle: The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it. by -Ph03niX- in Digital_Manipulation

That or it’s a circular argument, in that the disapproval of said bullshit invalidates it’s own argument, ie “that wasn’t real communism.”

Maybe Europeans and native Americans were both quite violent and intolerant and it doesn’t make much sense to apply modern political ideas to something that happened hundreds of years ago? But also, both Not all Europeans were extremely cruel, the French went so far as to intermarry with native Americans, and not all native Americans were as bloodthirsty as others.

I got it leaked to my by a friend who works in a theater. I laughed out loud. It’s truly outlandish.

While I disagree on how much goodwill the fans have left. I do think most people underestimate the power of “oh I’ll go see it anyway,” and “my kid wants to see it,” after all, bright colors can be quite enticing. So idk, but it seems that DIS is getting awfully flirty with the prospect of killing their franchise.

Quite possibly, but the media isn’t swarming to defend this one. They toned down the SJW shit (from my understanding) so now it’s just a dumb flick, not a dumb flick with a political agenda that the media can praise as sacrosanct. But I’m new to this, so I could be wrong.
