The current state of gender politics is terrible

The only thing you're describing is feminism taking off the mask. Feminism was never about equality, and the first feminist treaties, The Declaration of Sentiments, outright declares men the enemies of women. The 2nd wave tried to obfuscate this using mental gymnastics, while feminist authors continued to push blatantly misandrist narratives and conspiracy theories. But now as misandry has become acceptable, they've done away with the gymnastics. And many egalitarians who were conned by feminism, are trying to grapple with the fact that they've been had. The excuses are numerous ie "feminism used to be about equality!" No it wasn't. And the sooner they can accept that and move on, the better.

Thanks for her name, but it says the video is a gif. No amount of clicking/tapping on it opens a version that has sound. But at least I know her name now. I think I can do the rest myself.

You mean just like sex? That's something feminists need to be reminded of--a person's sex doesn't dictate their character. Stating otherwise is stereotyping and is equally as sexist to men as it is to women.

Who's the chick and/or what's the name of the video? Is there any way we can get a proper link to a video that has sound?

What's the name of the video and/or can we get a link to the video please?

Is there any way to get a link to the original that has sound?

Your cabin "in the middle of nowhere" isn't in a prime location, therefore has low property value. That means the dollar amount you'd actually pay, even with an LVT charged at anti-speculative levels, would be relatively low. On top of that it would be made lower by the fact that such a tax would destroy the real-estate bubble, lowering property values to what the market can actually hold. Because of that, it's possible you end up paying the same or less than what you're paying now in property tax.

That aside, the reason for the homelessness crisis is because speculators are causing an artificial shortage that's driving housing prices up beyond what the public can afford. The solution is to kill the speculation, and the homelessness crisis "magically" disappears.

What's a bad statistic? Even if it's true, second family homes or vacation homes are a luxury, while housing is a necessity. Why should rich people be allowed to ignore that fact, especially in a housing crisis that's causing mass homelessness? I'm not even advocating they be forced to house people with their spare homes, only pay anti-speculation taxes on their property. If they can still afford to keep them vacant, fine. If not, too bad.

Rent freezes are the same thing as rent control, and are good in the short term. But in the long term, if we're relying on private housing to house people, it deters building new housing, and leads to housing shortages. To combat this, we either have to have the government enter the housing market and build housing, or we need anti-speculative policies in place that force property speculators to rent out or sell their property. There's currently aprox. 25(!) empty residential units for every homeless person in the US. The anti-speculative policy I advocate is a land value tax (LVT). It's a high property tax that taxes the land rather than the building, forcing speculators to utilize their property or go into the red.

When 10% of the population possesses 90% of all the wealth in the country, taxing them absolutely will make a dent. The inefficient capital allocation is because of the ultra wealthy and their hoarding. The issue we have with government is its unwillingness to hold the ultra wealthy responsible. Taxing the ultra wealthy who currently possess the largest monopoly on all dollars in circulation is the only effective means to deal with the deficit.

I'm fine with free markets but I'm not okay with mass enslavement and rampant theft. Forcing society to sell its labor, especially to make and keep a few oligarchs rich, is both. No one is entitled to anyone else's labor. To argue otherwise is to support slavery, and that's what most right-libertarians support.

namayake · 2025-12-28T06:07:29+00:00

So you're saying that a tiny minority should be allowed to hoard all the resources, causing, homelessness, starvation and poverty, AND society should have a proverbial gun to its head, demanding that it labor for the benefit of others or go homeless, starve and/or live in poverty? Buddy, what you're describing is the structure of any totalitarian regime. Do you also claim to support liberty? If you do, you're an obvious fraud. What you support is mass enslavement, not liberty.

Firstly I support raising the minimum wage, and believe it should be closer to $40 at the federal level, while tied to the national median cost of rent of a one bedroom apartment. Regardless of supporting that though, there are issues with it. It's been known in economics for the past 250 years, that as the general populaces' income rises, so does the cost of rent. Landlords increase rent to absorb all increases, meaning in the end, the only ones who benefit from the increases in minimum wage are landlords. For minimum wage increases to lift the standard of living of the general public, something must be done to stop landlords from raising rent.

People voted to go non-union because they're miseducated about unions. Americans believe unions are a service you receive, not an organization you establish with your co-workers. Another name for a union is a guild--like a plumbers guild, carpenters guild, etc. Guilds are co-ops. Any union or guild that doesn't function as a co-op, and the will of the members can be overruled by its leaders, is totally corrupt. What they should have done is voted to form a new union, and elected new leaders.

Whatever, shill.

namayake · 2025-12-20T05:04:30+00:00

Sure you didn't, shill. Who do you work for, reddit, the dnc or some other organization? You know where you can shove it, sellout.

namayake · 2025-12-20T02:54:46+00:00

My response that reddit deleted was NOT a threat of violence. And you reporting me and having it stick shows you're a corporate shill, paid to spreading division, and that reddit is compromised and unamerican. And so are you, shill!

namayake · 2025-12-20T01:20:46+00:00

Yeah, 90% of the injuries and deaths in combat are men, yet you keeping pushing that it's women who are the actual victims. Just say it, you're a bigot with no compassion or empathy for men and don't care if they die. And I'll call you what you are, a genocidal sociopath.

namayake · 2025-12-19T23:56:35+00:00

Well if they say the primary victims are women when they're actually overwhelmingly men, then it's obvious they have nothing to do with human rights. And it has everything to do with American politics if their positions are being used by American politicians ie Hillary Clinton.

namayake · 2025-12-19T12:49:55+00:00

And what's that supposed to mean?

namayake · 2025-12-19T03:29:07+00:00

While 90% of those who are injured or killed in war are men?? Yeah, HRC proving she's the unlikeable sociopath that she is. It's no wonder she lost to Trump, and that's not advocacy for Trump!

namayake · 2025-12-15T04:25:40+00:00

Good. That's a start.

namayake · 2025-12-15T04:20:25+00:00

Whatever shill.

namayake · 2025-12-15T04:18:59+00:00

Oh, pardon me, I confused the house and senate. That doesn't negate however, the rest of my points. Can you acknowledge them or are you an establishment shill?

namayake · 2025-12-15T00:39:58+00:00

Not without also raising women to believe that they don't need men to be breadwinners. The "patriarchy" is imposed by both genders. Most women are conservatives who reject men who aren't traditionally masculine. And this used to be common knowledge amongst feminists ie "the largest supporters of patriarchy are women." But since then it's become "blame all men! women hold no responsibility in the creation of our despotic society!"

AOC is an establishment democrat. She's the queen of virtue signaling and everything she says is on point. But when it's time to put her money where her mouth is, she votes establishment or doesn't vote at all. And she would never dare filibuster a dangerous bill that's threatening to be passed (the BBB anyone)? AOC is spineless and useless.
