chenGOD Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 its actually extremely impressive how condescending and demeaning you can actually be while literally shouting at everyone else for being condescending and demeaning.... .... to right wing cunts. When people throw sarcastic or condescending comments at me (e.g. "Lemme tell you what your problem is...") Then yes there comes a point at which I respond with sarcasm or condescension (Known in game-theory circles as "forgiving tit-for-tat") This is not "tit-for-tat with forgiveness" by the way.Forgive some 'tits (lol)', and don't necessarily respond with 'tats'?Pretty sure that is 'tit for tat (now with forgiveness!)' You're just delaying the start of tit-for-tat. If it was tit-for-tat with forgiveness, after you start playing, you randomly forgive some of the other player's competition. As to all your other rambling (and by the way, part of communicating effectively is tailoring how you write to make sure your words are read and understood easily, so instead of lashing out when people complain about your style of writing, maybe consider their criticism from a constructive point of view), here we go: a) that's great you get out into the real world of your city - but what's the population of Portland, like 70k? Wiki says the 2010 census put it at 66,194, leaning democrat and pretty white. So straight off, your "n" is pretty small (because even if you spend all day, every day at the busiest thoroughfare in the city, your sample will not be very representative) . Second, your assumption that they have no use for the people they pass in the street introduces observer bias. Finally, your "data" in your first paragraph in no way supports your conclusion. b) You haven't defined your worldview, you just made a statement, asked two questions, and then didn't provide an answer. c) you might not have had an account on tumblr, but you sure as hell surfed enough of them back in the day. Of course leftist authoritarianism exists in the real world, but as evidenced by the continued existence of free speech and the non-firing of people like Jordan Peterson, or other "controversial" professors, it has had very little impact on higher education. This is not the cultural revolution. d) FB exists outside "social context" as it is a computer mediated space. This is not like Benedict Anderson's "Imagined Communities" because the individual exists, but the individual is not imagined in the same social context as you.

sweepstakes Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 It's tempting to freak out or stop giving a fuck. But convincing the Republicans that are able to do something about it, that what he's doing is fucked up and that we need to correct course, is really the only option we have here. It's not time for an armed revolt yet. And yeah Conway is a reptile on multiple levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goDel Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 few positives: - nikki's first performance in UN focussing on russian behavior in ukraine. think she did a good job in her first speech. more importantly sounds like someone making sense again. almost refreshing. was wondering if that was still possible. - also pointing a critical finger towards israel and it ongoing expanding of its settlements was a positive apart from that...well, the silver lining might be that people will have a better understanding how important it is to have a good functioning government making/implementing well thought-out laws/policies (if not, than (international) chaos). and that running a democracy is fundamentally different to running a company (a democracy can not be run unilateral like a company).

ambermonk Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 The fact that there is dissent within Trump's own party gives me a little hope. Lisa Murkowski has been a GOP senator in my state for a while, but she's making the right move by opposing the DeVos appointment. Also Hawaii's GOP leader Beth Fukumoto is likely to switch sides.I've heard some Democrats have been switching sides too, but if they're the corporate shill types that only means they're showing their true colors. Best to weed them out anyway.As for Conway, she reminds me of one of those Hagravens from Skyrim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubin Farr Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Let's just fabricate shit, maybe get Michael Bay to write the next press release "Like, remember that one time when we fought the Moon? Well, Trump is placing a 6 month ban on all immigrants from the Moon. Of course, we will still import their cheese, but with a hefty tariff to help block that space elevator all the bad Moonies keep using to come down and attack our Starbucks."

ignatius Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 haven't trump supporters been sucker punching people for the last year at his rallies though? at his direction? didn't a student get shot at a milo speech a while ago? not to excuse a random beat down. but when you peddle hatred it's gonna come back around with a bit of knee jerk and violence in places. it should be expected really.. this is america. it's what we do. also, put yourself in the mind of a 20 something who's all self righteous.. full of indignation and probably wants to be a part of a thing... has seen fight club and is thinking about a tyler durden speech and thinks this is going to be his 'great war'. shit is gonna happen. this is what's being unleashed. trump wasn't elected to be a uniter.. he's not a healer.. he's not going to smooth over old wounds and bring people together. he's going to double down on his bullshit and push people's buttons. there will be more of this violence wherever opposing sides of the spectrum meet.
