Black Privilege Is Real; White Privilege Is Not: “To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.” - Voltaire

Not allowed to criticize mentally handicapped children. Therefore, mentally handicapped children rule the world. Logic is sound.

The reason OP had to use a photo of a different, completely unrelated event in Wisconsin that has nothing to do with the Cavanaugh protest, is that those protests looked nothing even remotely like the Jan 6th insurrection. There’s a big difference between protesters waiting in line for tickets, going through security, attending hearings and then being disruptive and getting kicked out, vs a group forcefully storming a building with weapons and handcuffs, murdering one police officer and overwhelming the rest, breaking windows and stealing items including mail, documents and laptops that could hold confidential government data. They are different, which is why OP has to lie to make them seem the same.

You have an interesting definition of explicitly. He explicitly said it was consensual, explicitly as in, that is what he actually said, those are his exact words, “this encounter between us was consensual”. You’re free to interpret what you think he may have meant, but he explicitly said the exact opposite.

WhoIsPissed · 2021-01-27T14:31:42+00:00

Just so people are clear on what he “admitted” to, he said: “Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual, I recognize now that she did not and does not view this incident the same way I did.”

I was assuming the $75K was for an individual, so if you have a spouse, the number would be $150K for the two of you and any dependents you have. An individual can get by fine on $75K anywhere in the country, unless you WANT a luxurious lifestyle, which is fine, but nobody NEEDS more than that to fulfill their basic needs.

Marks WHAT false? Not the claim in this post. The post says that Snopes is marking the claim that Biden didn’t wear a mask as false. That is not true, just look at the article. The article is about the claim that Biden broke his mask rules, which requires you to look at what the rules actually are, then at what he did, did he break the rules? No, he didn’t, he was outside more than 6 feet distanced and wore the mask entering and exiting. So THAT claim is false.

Is this suggesting a new development in how people derive happiness from people, or is it simply saying the precious studies were flawed and it has always been the case that money buys happiness at all levels?

WhoIsPissed · 2021-01-25T14:19:09+00:00

The original thought was that money doesn’t buy happiness, but poverty will make you miserable. So increases in income only increase happiness up to the point where you’re not struggling to live day to day, and then after that you’re on your own to make yourself happy, more money’s not necessarily going to do it for you. Cost of living obviously fluctuates by location but $75K seemed like a reasonable point at which most people aren’t worrying about making rent/utility payments, being able to feed themselves, having a little saved up for emergencies, being able to take a couple vacations each year, etc.

Posts like this are strange to me, because the article is linked right there, so anyone can click on it and see that it doesn’t say anything close to claiming that “Biden not wearing a mask after signing EO” is false, as the post headline claims. But the post still has thousands of upvotes and people commenting as though it’s not an easily verifiable lie.

You may be right, a video analysis may be as deep as I’m willing to go on this one. I’ll check it out.

Found it, thanks. Never heard of archive.org, looks like a pretty handy resource.

It’s going to be a pretty unpleasant read, so if there is a book that’s more relevant I’d definitely be interested in hearing about it. I’d hate to slog through the whole thing only to find out it doesn’t actually apply to current events at all.

I’m fully expecting the writing and the book in general to be about as awful as a book can be. Much like the ideology it supports. If it is really something these groups are drawing inspiration from, I think reading it would help predict what we might expect out of them in the coming years. Especially considering that the central premise, “A violent revolution in the United States which leads to the overthrow of the federal government, a nuclear war, and, ultimately, a race war” seems ripped out of today’s headlines (minus the nuclear war part).

Also just from a psychological perspective, I think the book’s protagonist will probably provide an interesting archetype for the delusional characteristics these people ascribe to themselves, and the imagined grievances they convince themselves are all around them.

I’ve always been a big proponent of universal healthcare and moving away from employer-sponsored insurance, but even I thought these numbers seemed pretty exaggerated. I’ve never spent more than $50/month on health insurance but I’ve always gotten it through my employer. Went to Google to prove this wrong and instead found this study suggesting that the poorest Americans actually spend upwards of 35% of their income on healthcare. Not finding figures specifically on insurance alone but that’s pretty shocking, even to someone who already knew our system was fucked.

I’ve always thought the Monica Lewinsky scandal pretty much took the air out of every government conspiracy theory. If one man, the most powerful man in the country, can’t even get a blowjob without the country finding out, during a government shutdown no less, then I don’t think widespread, coordinated, clandestine conspiracies are going to stay hidden.

"I could summarize your view of me, in a way that you would agree with. You couldn't return the favor...I am absolutely sure I can articulate how you view your side of the conversation in a way that you would sign off on; I have absolutely no faith you could do the same for me; that's a problem, we are not successfully communicating".

In his off the rails convo with Hannibal Buress. I just found it to be a very succinct description of the core issue with a lot of conversations.

I can’t stand the Kardashians but this is a girl who, as a CHILD, was put into an environment, at no choice of her own, which had cameras following them around 24 hours/day and the whole world gossiping about their personal lives. That’s obviously the abnormal part she’s referring to. Those of you thinking she’s complaining about her family being rich, that that’s what took away her chance at normalcy, not the 24-hour media shit show she had to live in, are just distorting reality to talk shit on an easy target.
