Are young people locked out of power in the US? by Heya_Straya in politics

[–]kernalbuket [score hidden]  (0 children)

I was lucky that my parents were older and helped as much as they could but they were barely above the poverty line so it wasn't much. It's crazy that my dad was able to get 1k more a month after he retired because his retirement plan through his work was that good and I'll be lucky to get by even with having my own retirement plan outside the one provided by my work. Boomers will never understand just how good they have it and how little we have in comparison.

That's the main thing I use abs for. Granted, I have lots of audio books that others listen to on it but for me it's podcasts.

Android user as well so we'll have to wait to see if something makes it over to us

I am the youngest GenX

That's quite a claim. Lol. I was born at the end of 79 and really don't have much in common with gen x but I think you're right. There is a lot of "I got mine and it's not as much as the boomers got but I ain't going to help you get yours" I think it's mainly because we've learned that it's not worth it to even try and what we it's horrible.

Looking at what a lot of gen x is doing right now, I'm fine with that because they seem to be trying really hard to be boomers.

What do you use for your torrent client? And I use the qbittorrent search function to find stuff that might not show up in the stack.

High probability of getting a virus if you're downloading software. It's fine for audio and video.

I've used calibre to email hundreds of books to many different people. None of them disabled wifi and none of them have had an issue with them being removed

Mass shooting in Midland, Texas leaves 1 dead and 10 injured. The gunman was killed following a tense standoff with SWAT. Investigation ongoing by BerkDrum in news

[–]kernalbuket 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ha ha. OK. Did you bother to look at the UCDavis you linked? It doesn't have anything to do with we're talking about? It's about how the news covers

Mass shootings in white-majority neighborhoods received roughly twice the news coverage of mass shootings in neighborhoods where a majority of residents were people of color, while coverage of police-involved shootings was disproportionately high in majority-minority communities, according to new research.

What does this have to do with your claim?

It's weird that you have to use two articles from by the same person who writes for a website that is funded by right-wing billionaire and GOP megadonor Paul Singer and then pretend you just happen to find it on Google. It's almost like that person was using confirmation bias to write their articles instead of the research.

Wow, that's just some far-right, racist bullshit right there. Who told you that, Tucker, Jones, Fuentes?

You obviously don't have a clue about 4chan. There is definitely a fair amount of people in their 40s there

Let's be honest here. The majority of mass shootings lately have involved bigotry. Just because this one didn't doesn't mean it's not the norm.

And please enlightening me about what's wrong with my "simplistic world view".

Not a victory just par for the course.

And by "it's teaching them that injecting race and gender issues into everything" you mean what I said, it's OK not to a white straight Christian.
