Disability is what the "non-binary, pan-amorous" circus freaks embrace in order to opt out and suckle at the teet of a "system of oppression" they have no problem criticizing while massively exploiting it.

Essentially, they are embracing their role of oppressing the working class poor by burdening the working class poor with the costs of doing nothing while on the take. The same could be said of the walmart people, with their round walmart faces; there is often some overlap, obviously.

Stalin (and any good socialist, for that matter) started his "clean-up" pogroms, by exterminating these ones first. Socialism cant work with do-nothings swithering around around in their own filth, indiscriminately fucking each other while supported by the public coffers.

Most LGBT people have jobs. Lots of gay money out there. The gay areas of cities were always nicer than the poor areas -- even back when a lot of those areas were considered "affordable."

Its seems to be that rounding up the speculators, gangsters, and other forms of wealth extraction would be top of the list. Stalinism worked by putting fear to be UN-corruptable and to perform in the upper and middle classes -- workers were kind of doing what they always did.

Barbra Streisand “Profoundly Sorry” for Comments on Michael Jackson Accusers (https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019/03/barbra-streisand-profoundly-sorry-for-michael-jackson-accusers-comments)
Streisand tackled accusations in Leaving Neverland in an interview with the Times published Friday, noting that while she believed Robson and Safechuck were molested, she did not believe the experience had impacted them permanently. Jackson’s “sexual needs were his sexual needs, coming from whatever childhood he has or whatever DNA he has,” she said. “You can say ‘molested’, but those children, as you heard say [the grown-up Robson and Safechuck], they were thrilled to be there. They both married and they both have children, so it didn’t kill them.”

Mueller Report is in -- no collusion. *Yawn*


The only vaguely interesting thing about this is how the Mueller team is clearly covering their asses with executive privilege...but probably not that interesting.

Total witch hunt. Waste of time, energy, resources, and political capital. But DC sure nailed one of their own on tax evasion. Poor Flyn totally thrown under the bus.

[Irulan]

Well. It's not collusion but not no evidence of obstruction. And no indictment butt not exhonoration. "The evidence is a complex matter law". And William Barr won't prosecute not because he refused to initially anyway. There's not no evidence.

Oh fine. Lets take the worst part of Stalinism and focus on that. They could have prevented some of that by not hiding grain I might add. That was against the rules.

How about the fact that Russia went from 3rd world shit hole to the only real rival to the United States? Just zero credit given for that one.

They could have prevented "some" of being forcively starved to death and eating or feeding themselves to their children by NOT hiding food when Stalin intended to starve them to death for their potential to oppose him politically......


Lol.

If by "some" do you mean to say, that they couldve more quickly seen the starvation through to its grisly end? If so, then youre right....they couldve got the starving to death over with quicker if they didnt hide food when it started.

I wonder if any of you apply this logic to our country droning the shit out of people all over the world. Russia was nothing. Now they are the one country able to stand against us militarily.

You are one stupid mother fucker, you know that?

Hey guys, Russia was "nothing" before the Cold War. Russia didnt really win WW2, USA team america number 1 did. We just "gave"Russia 75% of Germany, because we were nice, because the "good guys" get gud by being nice, too!

After all, Russia just Branniganed Hitler's army on the eastern front while the rest of the entirety of Europe was in shambles. No big deal, anyone could've done that job. The real work was storming one beach!

In ww1 russia was just a puny force of 5,000,000 actively enlisted soldiers under tsar nicholas; an insignificant feat for the largest standing army in the world at the time.

None of these things matter, because JD is conjuring post-hoc pro-communist drivel directly out of his ass, so that must be the gospel truth.

My bad bro, i bow before your stifling intuition, grounded firmly at the root of your imagination.

[Thorondor]

For real though, the USA is the best country in the world to live. Everywhere else is just, meh.

[Thorondor]

In the early 1800s Napoleon's army was decimated attempting to invade Russia. This decimation is what allowed the UK to finally launch a campaign into France and defeat Napoleon the first time, after they had literally been handed their ass in every attempt to thwart Napoleon through proxy wars funded throughout continental Europe.

In the early 1900s, when the german-austro army was firmly entrenched and winning on the western front, Tsar Nicholas' 5million strong army forced germany to redirect several contingents of troops from the western front to the eastern front. This development is laregly considered to be the turning point that allowed the allied powers to win ww1.

Im wondering how you can assume "russia was nothing before communism".

You heard of brain drain? If China empowered their citizens they would’ve passed us by now. They will remain middle income and have Vietnam, India, and japan as perpetual enemies if they continue their current path. You seem to misunderstand what made the West centuries ahead of everyone else on this planet. It was the empiwerment of Human Resources. People bought into a system that gave them something they’d never had before: some modicum of freedom. I know, I know, our government allow pharmaceutical companies to kill us with opioids, it allows Amazon and google to run our lives, it tells lesser nations what they must do and crushes them economically resist. And yet our network of trad and investment has moved billions from poverty. It really is a matter of perspective. I don’t see the use of pretending your homeland and ancestors are or were evil, especially since that is an objectively false assertion. God Bless America.

Primary what hot America ahead of the rest of the world after WW2 was superior industrial power. Russia was doing OK historically when pikemen and muskets were still relevant (as Throndor points out), but it wasn't until Stalin industrialized the country that we fell into what as referred to as a "Bi-Polar" international order.

Before that, Russia was mostly known for humiliating defeats around the WW1 era (no industrialization, a "sleeping giant"). Germany developed ahead not by copying the Anglo model (England/United States), but by authoritarian collectivism.

As far as I know America -- so far -- has had the edge on advanced industrial technology. They did a good job on capitalizing on their lead from WW2. The problem is that China might actually be better at producing hackers and "cybersecurity". IDK -- I just hear a lot about cyber security and Chinese/Russian hackers. It seems like they may have more per capita.

There was nothing anti-American per se in my post. I was just pointing out that we should be able to stop posturing and flag waving for 5 minutes to acknowledge authoritarian collectivism has its merits. Many of the posters hear are spouting a line of propaganda spread throughout this country to prevent well-born people from being taxed. it was invented by those people for those people.

And what exactly are we trying to do with all this power we keep accumulating/defending? From what I can tell, we want to allow a privileged few to "transcendend" humanity with genetic modifications, life extension and cyber implants. And rest of us are used as fodder for that goal. Maybe a little bit of collective organizing is a good idea before this becomes some kind of dystopia post-apocalyptic poverty zones with a few armored pleasure domes.

And all that "lifting people out of poverty" shit is mostly just accounting tricks to make philanthropists feel better about their shitty money-grubbing behavior. Yea lets count a McDonald's worker that barely feed themselves a "not poor" and feel good about ourselves...many of those motherfuckers were happier subsistence farming.

[Thorondor]

You're assuming they ONLY industrialized, and did so at athe rate that they did, because of socialism. Where is your proof that Tsar Nicholas and his would-be successors were anti-industrialization? How can you say, that Russia's industrialization would not have happened anyways. For all intents and purposes, history has proven Russia to be fairly competent, and contemporarily "current" in terms of world power, regardless of what sociopolitical system of rule that they operate under, so how can you claim "socialism" as causual?

Well you can just look at the widely observed fact that outside of the first big powers (England/US) -- it always took massive government intervention and societal organization to "catch-up" in industrialization. Socialism (the Marxist-Lennist style) is just the format Russia used. There are other forms like Hitler's Fascism (and the Fascist-style nationalistic military rule that preceded that in Germany). Or in the case of Japan they could relay a great deal on informal social compacts...the honor/propriety concepts are so strong that they didn't need as many laws.

But the whole laissez faire system was only ever successful for the first industrializing power.

All that being said...Stalinism in particular seemed more successful at militarization and scientific advancemnt in the long run. Hitler's government was more self-destructive...but admittedly pretty strong military wise.

I look at us as that civilization that is way ahead on score in a game of Civilization -- so we think we're doing everything right and its impossible to lose. But comebacks do happen. And we've only been this way a few hundred years or less. Early game, Greece had the top score, then Rome, then China...etc...Meanwhile China is catching up.

Primarily what got Nazi Germany ahead of both America, and Russia, before pretty much the entire industrialized world had to team up to stop the, before and during world war 2, was flag waving collectivism, and death labor work camps.

Nazi Germany's meteoric rise occured in less than 2 decades following absolute and utter decimation at the hands of Russia and the Western world, mind you.

If we're judging a system of governance by its "effectiveness" than Fascism has Capitalism and Socialism beat in spades.

Russia has always been a warlord state under a strongman's throne. "Socialism" or no, this is an unbroken sequence. Socialism didn't do it. But revolution that granted the autocrat orders of magnitude greater concentration of power may well have made the diff between getting steamrolled by better-looking Germans and saving freedom in the west, creating the beautiful, utopian, culturally diverse world we know & love today. I therefore posit that socialism & revolution were a dandy thing in Russia. Godbless

Well one thing is for sure, none of those damn countries would have been shit following the Anglo "liberal market economy" model. So you can keep splitting my words and moving goal posts around...but the reality is, Stalin industrialized his country and they were a 3rd world shithole using swords under the Czar.

Who ended up killed of course, like all the incompetent dipshits that pandered to the aristocrats in that era. Which is what of what goes on here.

America is America because of the American military. Not because of Amazon, Walmart or fucking Paris Hilton. The least free areas of our society is what we owe the most to. The most socialist era of American history is when we made our biggest gains. Its about unity against external threat and not "every-man-for-himself" competition and cannibalism.

We sure as hell aren't going to stay on top by facilitating spoiled idiots run our economy into the ground so they can have more vacation homes. That doesn't produce unity against external threats. Neither does constantly importing cheap labor or exporting all middle class jobs.

If your for economic "freedom," you are for the status quo and that trajectory is headed straight down.

I do like the personal freedom stuff though -- that's getting more popular worldwide I might add.

The Nazis wouldve won world war 2 if, essentially, the rest of the entire developed world didnt team up to gangbang them, and Germany had less than 10% of the actual manpower that the rest of the combined world threw at them while barely losing with a ramp up time of less than 2 decades since total ecnomic and military collapse gripped the country in the aftermath of ww1.

So, if we're going to trace this argument back to its root, with JD declaring Russia coming to prominence because of communism: therefore asserting communism as a positive driver of indstrialization that should be embraced, we must also acknowledge that Fascism (specifically Nazism) is superior to Socialism at seeing the same ends to fruition.

[maskedmelon]

butttwat.tif we concider that Russia only was a shithole relative to the west. the pressing need to "catch up" and industrialize wood therefore be a direct result of the West.

So, if we're going to trace this argument back to its root, with JD declaring Russia coming to prominence because of communism: therefore asserting communism as a positive driver of indstrialization that should be embraced, we must also acknowledge that Fascism (specifically Nazism) is superior to Socialism at seeing the same ends to fruition.

Yea lets count a McDonald's worker that barely feed themselves a "not poor" and feel good about ourselves...many of those motherfuckers were happier subsistence farming.

Your not supposed to make a living from McDonald's, or any other fast food job, unless you're management. The typical fast food job is supposed to be a starter job, or a job to make a little extra money... not to make a living on.

We were talking about the way global poverty was accounted for, which went right over some of your heads.

In America, a lot of people can do a lot of higher paid jobs out there if we taught them to do them. But we mostly try to keep those pathways secret so only those that "fit in" qualify. Its mostly social BS.

That and everyone could just do them without pedigree social sorting show -- they wouldn't be high paid for very long.

Socialist nations are among the most ethnically homogenous countries in the world. You dont get to claim some sort of moral monopoly on anti-racism. In fact, judging by the enthic makeup of socialist countries, i could generally say they're ethnically exclusive with extremely ethnocentric immigration policies.

Most of the nordic countries which have heavily socialized require you having a blood relative no more distant than 2nd cousins, who will vouch for you unless your granted "refugee" status, and even then some of these countries still refuse/throttle inflow of refugees. There are also substantial educational requirements.

It's like, "quiet down down there N*****r, i'm tryin' ta help ya", with a foot on their head. We've already seen your support, by their own admissipn, resort to elitism going so far as to specifically state "i dont give a fuck about poor people" when the irony of your self-centered form of "socialism" is revealed.

I think racism is used to make immigration a wedge issue. That we actually have upped the amount of immigration in this country to the point where it does -- to minor degree -- lower wages.

But that's the primary reason wages are what they are and lower classes have less. Just one aspect that's easy to get people on board with. It's easier for conformist minded people to blame Mexicans than it is to blame the leaders they are supposed to look up to.

I say immigration should be greatly reduced. But that is effectively asking those that own various industries for higher wages. So it hasn't happened yet.

Meanwhile there are a lot of useful idiot liberals out there that don't see the impact constant immigration has on our political system. Or they expect to much out of working class whites.

Christian converts in Iran face extreme persecution from the government. Armenians and Assyrian Christians face none. The famous mural of the American flag as bombs being dropped is adjacent to a massive Armenian cathedral in Tehran topped with a cross. Most people don’t care. The 20-30% of extremely conservative Muslims in Iran wouldn’t look kindly on conversion. They still don’t care about Armenian or Assyrian Christians in Iran though. I don’t ever remember being told anything bad about Christians or Jews. We do hate Sunnis, however

I face very little racism in the US. Two of my three children married whites and converted to Christianity. Third is engaged to a salvadorean evangelical

There used to be a lot of unionized jobs paying living wages (like construction) that now don’t pay shit in a lot of states. That’s on the republicans though, you’re right.

Not to mention the number of doctors and collegiate professors we bring in from overseas, where the cost of obtaining the requisite education is quartered if not more.

Pretty easy to undercut the salary requirements of a native made doctor when their imported counterparts dont have the overhead of 250 to 300k in student loans and 7 years of indentured residency servitude.

But, "fuck the rich" tax those native doctors at 40%+ hecause their salary exceeds 150k before they pay their 2,0000$/mo studebt loan payment

Treasury bonds “inverted” for the first time since 2007. This dry-sounding development has led to a great deal of speculation on Wall Street and in the*financial*press*about whether an*economic downturn*might finally be on the way. As the Wall Street Journal’s James Mackintosh*put it, “The market’s most reliable recession indicator is finally flashing red.”

Why does this have people so worried? The yield curve has inverted in the lead-up to all nine U.S. recessions since 1955. As the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco*notes, there has only been one instance in the last six decades when an inversion wasn’t followed by an official recession within two years or less. That was back in the mid-1960s, when growth slowed, but the economy didn’t technically shrink. Since then, there hasn’t been a single false alarm.

Thanks Trump.

On a positive note. We hit an inverted yield curve on long term treasury bonds today, so we're looking at a recession very soon here.

This is his generations chance to build equity in the aftermath of the market bubble popping.

Stay liquid...it looks like its going to be a 50 to 60% downturn if you assume that market growth SHOULD have followed true economic growth since 09. This is where millionaires made kids. Dont waste the opportunity while deluding yourself into believing you "never had a chance".

Thats what losers who never tried tell themselves.

on Monday I talked a 20-year old girl out of getting a free promotional tattoo for buying $150 in weed in a local shop on the coming holiday of 4/20. She's a shopkeep at a head shop who has sort of a crush on me. She turns 21 on 4/18 or something so she's like building it up into a big deal. "My first legal 4/20!" is a phrase she used.

She said she was planning on getting a weed leaf on her ankle, so she could show it to her kids someday and say "this is a thing I did". I made a face and told her to ruminate on it. She said, "what's that word mean?" I explained and she got all doe-eyed, "that's such a smart word..." I told her she needs to know these words to be a veterinarian (which she is in school for). That mommy energy really got her off. It was executed quite beautifully. I've been suuuper charming lately.

I also got her to quit drinking soda. she's like 3 weeks clean. I'm honestly a prettygood influence on the earth.

I think we’re about 10 years from same-sex pregnancy. That would make a post-male society possible because I think how that works out is all the children are female due to Xs involved. (Which may be for the best because the Y chromosome these days isn’t what it used to be.) I was so happy to read about that a week ago, I could legit be a mother; but I’d need a surrogate unless artificial wombs happen and I don’t trust anyone else to do that.

There's a reason hell is depicted as a mass of writhing bodies.

I vote to decrease the hominid biomass to a stable and manageable level. In fact. I am considering doing so voluntarily. As I also believe I am insignificant. There's little more I could say or do to effect the unpredictable, but statistically likely outcome of our species present course.

And, it was not meant to be a "living" document, despite what the left may think. Any changes to the constitution is to be done through amendments, not through interpretations of those in power at any given time. And, the courts are supposed to uphold the constitution as written, not based on what their political ideology is.

I was told "just get a better job that gives good private insurance today".

I am barely functioning at the entry level / poverty line. No I absolutely do not want to retaliate against the GOP or my neighbors that support them.

But it's clear that allowing insurers, pharmacies, and corporations to do whatever they want is a rediculous and insane plan. And while I advocate pacifism, the diabetic guy with PTSD and an opiod addiction is getting backed up against the wall by the GOP.

The Trump administration and propagandists do want to light that candle out of arrogance.

I emplore any republican or elite to consider that this is not going to be a win for you guys. If you take society down like this, you are absolutely inviting a Stalin or Maduro esque figure to become populized.

Give a little and invest in the lower classes. It will net you a much more prosperous future, before you are being held at the end of a pitchfork.

Please.

mead can you weigh in on the "cheese for dinner diet"?

[FatherSioux]

Jordan Peterson is on the carnivore diet, hardly keto, that's just a mad mans diet. I did Keto for a month or two, it was really tough for me to maintain but it's a great way to drop lbs and alienate yourself from the world.

[maskedmelon]

Sioux is right, you aren't likely to remain in ketosis on the carnivore diet because protein consumption will be too high. keto's rise in popularity has actually been over the course of the last 10 years or so as new research has shown that saturated fat is not bad at all and atherosclerosis is due to inflammation generally stemming from bad lifestyle choices like smoking or excessive consumption of refined garbohydrates liek HFCS resulting in elevated insulin levels. if you already have trouble with grains (gluten intolerance, celiac spruce, etc.) or inflammatory conditions (arthritis, gout, gingivitis, diabetes) or other immunofuckuppery, it makes sense to give it a go.

anyone continuing to argue that saturated fats cause heart disease is making an argument along the lines of "protein consumption is bad bfor cause your body uses amino acids to create platlettes, and those are used to form scabs." the obvious difference here is that scabs are generally benign while arterial plaques can have serious consequences. both are protective responses though to damage originating elsewhere.

eating grain isn't a bad thing if that's what you prefer, but eating refined grains very much is. a lot worse could happen to a nation struggling with obesity and diabetes than an anti inflammatory diet that stabilizes blood sugar and insulin.

around 5-10 cups of cruciferous veggies a day and actually do eat my cheese with it. I don't actually eat more than 4-8oz of cheese a day because a lot of it has carbs too and i don't have many left beyond my greens. One thing I will say is my metabolic flexibility has improved a lot since I've been eating this way. when I started it was super easy to m as up and fall out of ketosis. i can accommodate a decent amount of variance now without a painful transition.

[clevergirl]

Ya fat is primarily my main macro nutrient. So.... I'm doing good there. I don't buy crappy fat or eat McDonalds hamberders.

yep saturated fat is fine.

learn lipid metabolism.

the processed vs complex sugar argument is *ok* cuz there's a plausible mechanism (stretched-out glucose / insulin spike vs higher peak rapid onset). I don't know this particular data but tit stands to reason that, although eating nothing but meat and cheese for dinner gives you awful body odor compared with me, insulin spikes are much lower cuz of the stretched out metabolism. So I am willing to yield that tiny point.

but anyway, macronutrient stuff doesn't enter your bloodstream un-metabolized. that would be stupid. cholesterol is 100% fine to eat too.

i don't feel like making this a good post so u go research it yourself.

On closing the border.

This is unpopular, but we have a record number of homeless, drug addiction, suicide, many are veterans, many are women, many are lgbtq, many are white men brought up in an environment and economy which didn't prepare them for the reality of capitalism in a collapsing economy more and more dominated by just a few large corporations and manual labor outsourced to foreigners.

So we have record numbers of our own hopeless and purposeless people unable to even consider ethically having children and experience their humanity. Leading to the dehumanization of large segments of the lowest classes and minorities.

And we have a bunch of elites unwilling to face the murderous policies of their domnion.

We have all these groups fighting amongst ourselves. Extremely vulnerable people with birthright to our constitutional freedoms being destroyed.

Yet we can't dare show the truth of this brutality at the border... "think of the children".

America needs to be bathed in this bloodshed first hand. Everything else is just stymiyng the inevitable so that the elites can move out and sheild themselves behind private military. Paramilitary.

Face it our politicians and policies are creating this situation. They don't care how many Americans or foreigners die. As long as they can get votes. Because of "the wall" or "the ice".

Republicans, democrats. You have failed us and continue to do so. Every illegal on welfare while young men are radicalized into parkland shooters due to disenfranchisement and propaganda is a win for both sides.

I say we really do shut down our borders and show the Americans what tyranny and the use of force is all about. I believe this is genuinely Trumps endgame. It's acceleratiinism at its finest. The Republicans think it will create a crisis that will give them political dominance. They are definitely not assured this.

In my estimation the forces behind this have already taken their toll on human life, they will continue to do so so long as Americans dwell in ignorance. These people, foreign, and citizens alike, are already dead.

How much longer are we going to dwell in shame and hide from the truth? Give me mercy.

NYT published an opt-ed calling for game unionization today.

Making Video Games Is Not a Dream Job (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/04/opinion/video-games-layoffs-union.html)

Worker exploitation has always been part of the video game industry’s DNA. Executives with multimillion-dollar stock packages often treat their employees like Tetris pieces, to be put into place as efficiently as possible, then promptly disposed of. For many kids who grew up with controllers in their hands, being a game developer is a dream job, so when it comes to talent, supply is higher than demand. Some people who make video games receive decent salaries and benefits (experienced programmers at the richest studios can make six figures), but many do not.

Quality assurance testers — those who play a game repeatedly in order to spot glitches before they’re found by consumers — can make as little as $10 an hour. For those living in expensive cities like Los Angeles, working extensive overtime can be the only way to make ends meet.

By comparison, Activision Blizzard’s chief executive, Bobby Kotick, made $28.6 million in 2017, a package that included cash, stock and other compensation. That was 306 times the median Activision Blizzard employee’s salary.

There’s only one way for these workers to push back against the way they’re exploited while franchises like Call of Duty churn out money for those at the very top: unionization.

Unions are interesting in the case of games, because the actual workers need more say in how decisions are made...unlike some industries.

But the problem with games in our current economic system runs a bit deeper...bottom-line is long development cycles are rarely profitable compared to other kinds of ventures...in yet long development cycles are what make great games.

I honestly think only subsidies will provide great games in the future. The government spends a great deal already toward the arts...I think as time passes people are going to discover that well made video games actually are a form of high art that can serve utility outside of simple entertainment.

Games can be educational and social as well. But only if well made with long development cycles. Only if the project has other motives besides selling micro-transactions and expansions with little content.

There is a definite correlation between gamers and social climbers in the newer generations. So we will see I guess.
