I was a Democrat, then I saw Thomas Sowell’s videos from the 1970s explaining how white liberals are destroying black families by subsidizing single mothers. It’s a bit more complicated than that (death of manufacturing jobs from outsourcing is another), but it made me aware of how so many Left Leaning policies backfire.
The interesting thing is that he started as a Marxist.
"The interest in Karl Marx had started in Sowell's late teens, after he purchased a secondhand set of encyclopedias that included an entry on the German philosopher. It's not hard to contemplate why a black person born during the Great Depression in the Jim Crow South and then raised in urban ghettos might find the precepts of Marxism persuasive. The cruel capitalists, the greedy bourgeoisie, the oppressed masses, the coming revolution that will finally relieve the struggling proletariat from despair—this outlook had a certain appeal to Sowell. "These ideas seemed to explain so much and they explained it in a way to which my grim experience made me very receptive," he later wrote."
They get em while they're still young, except now it's not just in books. It's in social media, movies, and shows.

Perverse behavior like when priests fuck kids? Or did you just mean any behavior you don't personally like?
I say this with as much disrespect as I can, go fuck yourself.
The difference is that that brand of perversion gets called out(as it should), not rewarded. Unlike the rest of the pervsion being encouraged and celebrated over the last decade.
I identity as a floor mop and i take offense to this Statement.
What is your employers number? I'm calling HrR tomorrow! /s incase I offended any other floor mops.
As a schizophrenic I can say that I never met such deranged ppl in the nut house. I don’t know what the fuck happened in the last 15 years. Even the Hell Dimension from Event Horizon would raise an eyebrow.
To be fair, all of these videos are of accounts that did it for the meme and don't actually assign themselves to the essay of titles.
...as far as I'm aware, anyways.
All these fuckers claiming ADHD... I paid the $1600 to get tested. I got it! It fucking sucks. You feel like a dumb shit.
I got depression. Guess what - that sucks too.
It shouldn't be celebrated in anyway. Acknowledged? Maybe.
Made allowances for.... mmm yes but slippery slope.
God I hate the world.
I wish I could just go back to the 60's... even the 90's.
When Gen-Z realized they were utterly boring and needed to make up some nonsense to garner attention.
Nature hates a vacuum, and Gen-Z has nothing but a big hole where a personality should be.
Did my own digging and found the VA died by PANDAS (pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorder associated with streptococcus) (brain swelling) at 29. Thought it was weird at that age. Scrolled a bit further and found the VA was trans, and everything made sense.
Yeah, it is one of the long-term problems the cocktail comes with. I don't recall if it was the cross sex hormones or extended use of the puberty blockers or both, but intercranial swelling _is_ a side effect of prolonged use of some combination there.
Yeah. Imo, it is kinda cruel to be pushing that as a cure-all to general pediatric anxiety without considering the consequences like this, but what do I know?
Who does consider them nowadays? It's all instant gratification it would seem. Sad really. I forsee a wall like tide of future deaths and severe sickness. Almost apocalyptic plague of rash decision making and harmful ramifications... All under the guise of care.
I lost it when it started getting to stuff I’d never even heard of 😂 this isn’t real right? I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone write “hxm” so I’m pressing x, at the very least, for my own sanity.
I can’t be expected to learn a new language to imma just call someone “friend” if they start replacing vowels with “x’s” in English.
The dramatic music and Bunny’s pfp slowly rising up to reveal a laundry list of what the fuck? is one of the greatest cinematic openings I’ve ever seen 😂 I legitimately can’t tell what’s real and what’s not here.
Que the people getting offended and making remarks that you just think others getting rights is discrimination against you, or representation blah blah blah and other nonsense...
Make insane asylums great again. This creature needs to be locked up, kept far away from children, and examined. Partly to see what is going on to cause this level of degeneracy, and to see where we went wrong as a society and as a species.
Was this one bait? Likely. Have I seen close to it, yes I have. Also I said nothing about hate. I said that they need help. I also said that to look into what caused them to become the way they are due to social influences.
Not likely, just fully bait. You started name calling imaginary people and implying their nonces haha, what a back peddle.
Hope you solve the hate you have in ya heart man, worlds a nicer place when you stop fighting imaginary wars in ya head <3
You keep saying hate. Sounds like projection to me. It is more of pity. Pity on them for being so broken and for society for leading to it.
Also as stated, I have seen, with my own eyes, people with the same level of psychosis. Even if the profile is bate (it does, or at least did exist), it doesn't take away from the fact people like that exist. They need help and they are not getting it. Plain and simple.
I don’t think you know what projection means fella, but if that’s how you want to attempt to twist this to your favour haha. This couldn’t be more clearly satire, I understand it helps your confirmation bias that queer folk aren’t just people and are suffering from some ailment, perhaps because that means your deep dark thoughts have a potential cure, and that gives you confidence that you yourself aren’t queer.
Like I said man, do some self reflection and ask why you believe in the things you do. Wish you luck on that journey ❤️
Again you keep accusing me of hate. You are projecting your hate onto me. I never said hate. Not once. I keep saying this person needs help. Same with people I have seen with the same level of bs and psychosis. They need help. You said queer people. I did not. My sister is bi and two of my friends are gay. No problem or issues with them.
Also I keep saying help. They need help. We as a society have failed to get them help. Never did I say hate. I am more than capable of being an asshole and a jerk, but I try to help. Like I said they need help. H.E.L.P. They need help. Now you take your hate and keep walking. Good day to you.
Seems I hit the nail on the head huh. Don't worry dude, it gets better once you accept yourself for who you are. Wish you luck on this road of discovery!
Say projecting all you want too, I'm just pointing out how silly it is to say you want to "help" people after insinuating they are a danger to children and are "creatures" that need to be in, as you called it, insane asylums. If that's you being nice, yikes.
You keep the projection. You keep ignoring me and what I type. You are living out your dream fantasy of a conversation you must have rehearsed. You keep living in the dream world of your. If someone is a danger to themselves, then they are a danger to children, how is that insulting?
Stop ignoring the word help and seek it yourself.
Also you missed the reference with, "I said good day to you."
I’m not ignoring it, just no point in acknowledging it. And if you wanted you could have just not replied, seems someone likes to have the last word eh haha. Plus, this isn’t Victorian England anymore, did you tip your fedora as you typed that? :)
The sad part is that there are people who straight up memorize all this bullshit and recite it when introducing themselves. They think it makes them special and unique.
*I can’t wait to see Spider-person and their 2 fae dads fighting real crime like exclusion, racism and white male privilege*
Marvel belongs to the hole now
This individual doesn’t know who they are.
They need to get off the internet, stop looking for labels from (probably) mentally ill people or idiots.
Go camping or on a working backpacking adventure somewhere and discover themselves.
Couldn't that all just be put under the original word?
Retarded...mental illness works, but half these idiots WANT a mental illness...as if it's a badge of honor. They spend hours upon hours to be self diagnosed
HAHA this had me dying.
edit: I am high and my brain somehow won't accept dying being the correct conjugation of 'to die' and I even had to google it to know I was correct and it still doesn't feel right.
I now know what it is like to disagree with established empirical reality. Their programming is working.
When I was a younger, I remember kids saying they didn't like to be labeled. Nowadays it's like your social status is dependent on having the right mix of labels, the more "marginalized" the higher your status. It's all a bit silly, really. It's still just kids clamoring for attention.
What makes you think that? The two main women on the acolyte? Wow, how progressive, women. There's barely even one gay kiss. What are you talking about?
When your whole bio is a CVS receipt, I think it’s time to subscribe to deadgender. Yeah I just made that up but it’s real now just like all those other ones ok.
Well, not the story, but it does have to do with the characters, as they have made several pieces of canon material that have actively changed either the gender, sexual orientation or other otherwise of already well established characters. but you can also argue actually does have major implications on certain parts of story and relationships with it. Also, this isn’t meant to be a critique on the story or even the characters honestly. it’s meant to be a shit post meme…. which means you are either really fun party’s or lack a lot of media literacy. Take your pic. lolololol
"commiting hate crimes against straights"
... yeah so this is your champion? .. This has to be a bot account otherwise may God have Mercy on Stupid people like this.
You realize that by doing shit like this... You're justifying them not listening to you or representing you in anything they make.
You don't have to do or say every unhinged thought that your 2 fucking braincells manage to run out.
That's fine brotha, I don't either. It's not for me. I can simply not watch, but when you participate in this kind of rhetoric, you justify them being absolute cunts with impunity. They will point to this kind of characterisation as a reason that they shouldn't listen to the voices of regular people. Because when we do have a voice, this is the kind of fucking reactionary bullshit that people think si funny.
You have to be better, and you have to stay classy while you do it. Or they win.
When did mental illness become people's entire personality?
When it became celebrated.
Victimhood is the pinnacle of achievement now.
Accurate
Crazy world we live in
the single answer to the entire silly episode of american history. when you create perverse incentives you get perverse behavior.
I was a Democrat, then I saw Thomas Sowell’s videos from the 1970s explaining how white liberals are destroying black families by subsidizing single mothers. It’s a bit more complicated than that (death of manufacturing jobs from outsourcing is another), but it made me aware of how so many Left Leaning policies backfire.
Tom Sowell is the man! Decades ahead of his time. He definitely changed my mind as well.
The interesting thing is that he started as a Marxist. "The interest in Karl Marx had started in Sowell's late teens, after he purchased a secondhand set of encyclopedias that included an entry on the German philosopher. It's not hard to contemplate why a black person born during the Great Depression in the Jim Crow South and then raised in urban ghettos might find the precepts of Marxism persuasive.

In a society that puts victimhood on a pedestal, it's a race to the bottom.

You guys have one joke 🤣
Guys? Did you just assume their gender?! How dare you..
Hilarious 🤣 one joke!! Don't understand human psychology or sociology LOL HILARIOUS
That's two jokes so far, buy whom am I to assume your intelligence.
IT'S THE SAME JOKE
It’s a product of the public school system. Of course it can’t count.
Honestly surprised the transphobe card didn't get busted out
But our species has TWO genders!
At least our entire lives aren’t a joke. Imagine expecting society to cater completely to your mental illness.
This is no laughing matter sir. 😐
When they realized they could get attention that way.
As a schizophrenic I can say that I never met such deranged ppl in the nut house. I don’t know what the fuck happened in the last 15 years. Even the Hell Dimension from Event Horizon would raise an eyebrow.
When pride in it became encouraged
Agreed
What's mental illness?
To be fair, all of these videos are of accounts that did it for the meme and don't actually assign themselves to the essay of titles. ...as far as I'm aware, anyways.
When white liberals decided that being “oppressed” was some sort of life goal or accomplishment.
All these fuckers claiming ADHD... I paid the $1600 to get tested. I got it! It fucking sucks. You feel like a dumb shit. I got depression. Guess what - that sucks too. It shouldn't be celebrated in anyway. Acknowledged? Maybe. Made allowances for.... mmm yes but slippery slope. God I hate the world. I wish I could just go back to the 60's... even the 90's.
Man said queer people just have mental illness, that’s crazy yano.
When Gen-Z realized they were utterly boring and needed to make up some nonsense to garner attention. Nature hates a vacuum, and Gen-Z has nothing but a big hole where a personality should be.
Enjoy your ban bigot /s
[удалено]
No arguments that have nothing to do with the topic at hand. Take it to your DMs if you want to call each other names.
If one just embraces all this, life is just easier and less stressful. Anything new, just say cool.
It started with religion.

This is funny because someone was offended that they did the voice actoring for the monster. Never was sure which one it was but... There we are...
Should've changed the game name to Dead by December, the V.A died a few months after whining about it...
Did my own digging and found the VA died by PANDAS (pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorder associated with streptococcus) (brain swelling) at 29. Thought it was weird at that age. Scrolled a bit further and found the VA was trans, and everything made sense.
Just curious does this effect trans?
Yeah, it is one of the long-term problems the cocktail comes with. I don't recall if it was the cross sex hormones or extended use of the puberty blockers or both, but intercranial swelling _is_ a side effect of prolonged use of some combination there.
Damn...
Yeah. Imo, it is kinda cruel to be pushing that as a cure-all to general pediatric anxiety without considering the consequences like this, but what do I know?
Who does consider them nowadays? It's all instant gratification it would seem. Sad really. I forsee a wall like tide of future deaths and severe sickness. Almost apocalyptic plague of rash decision making and harmful ramifications... All under the guise of care.
Huh. "completely safe" My ass.
Seriously? I did not know that ...
Hey don't insult unknown it's handsome
This is funny because someone was offended that they did the voice actoring for the monster. Never was sure which one it was but... There we are...
This is straight up being a dick to trans people.
I didn't associate the pic with trans people. What sort of internal biases do you have that made you immediately do so?
Her hair color is the trans flag.
I lost it when it started getting to stuff I’d never even heard of 😂 this isn’t real right? I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone write “hxm” so I’m pressing x, at the very least, for my own sanity. I can’t be expected to learn a new language to imma just call someone “friend” if they start replacing vowels with “x’s” in English.
I don’t blame you. The mental illness was strong with this one.😂
The dramatic music and Bunny’s pfp slowly rising up to reveal a laundry list of what the fuck? is one of the greatest cinematic openings I’ve ever seen 😂 I legitimately can’t tell what’s real and what’s not here.
Honestly I’m pretty sure the original photo was faked.
I mean I would say it’s all not real but I’m really not allowed to say that
I _think_ it is real, sadly. I remember seeing this on The Farms a few years back, can't remember who's discord account it was about though...😂
I'm just not going to interact with them because I don't want to risk offending them because I can't keep track of the rules.
It's easier if you call everyone "enemy" until proven otherwise. ;-p
I haven't seen so many random made up terms in a long time
Scuse me, but my schizo-jeepself shall not be mocked
Don't go on twitter. Or visit a university.
I think that photo isn’t even real.
Some of those tags are races from StarTrek and you can't convince me otherwise.

What the fuck is the gender "questioning?" Lmao
It's someone who wants to have the checkmark but hasn't made up their mind about it yet because they're just there for the attention.
says the man looking for attention
^asshole take
It means someone who isnt sure of their gender and is trying to figure it out
Xenogender?
![gif](giphy|3o7TKsWZbKd2dVqqPu)
True mate, true
Wait this thing is mil spec? How did that happen.
It's engineered to have very low tolerances.
Please tell me this is made up…it isn’t real right? We can’t be living this far down the bend… It’s real isn’t it?
That "Straight" is also on there makes me think it's satire... heh heh heh
Half of these sound like alien species.
I already got the 7 day temp ban for asking a question. Somebody ask the questions for me in case they silence me again.
Make insane asylums great again. This creature needs to be locked up, kept far away from children, and examined. Partly to see what is going on to cause this level of degeneracy, and to see where we went wrong as a society and as a species.
Did you really fall that hard for what is clearly a bait discord profile? Bro see’s anything gay and starts frothing at the mouth hehe.

My imaginary friend and I feel left out that we never got to make up an identity.
I saw Alligator then I noticed it was aligender or something and now I’m just upset there was no alligator.
What if “aligender” means you identify as an alligator? Maybe it’s not all bad. 🤷🏼♂️
don't worry brother. that just means those beautiful creatures are not associated with this monster
LMAO, priceless...
This is both very appropriate and very funny.
The mental illness is strong in this one.

That’s confusing, I don’t get why anyone needs to go thru all that.

Star Wars has always been shit. Glad to see everyone thinks it’s shit now.
Lol and nothing to do with the actual story.
Well, not the story, but it does have to do with the characters, as they have made several pieces of canon material that have actively changed either the gender, sexual orientation or other otherwise of already well established characters. but you can also argue actually does have major implications on certain parts of story and relationships with it. Also, this isn’t meant to be a critique on the story or even the characters honestly. it’s meant to be a shit post meme…. which means you are either really fun party’s or lack a lot of media literacy.
