How dare white people place themselves in the way of bodily harm to attempt to improve the lives of black people. Don't they understand how poor these optics are?

Taking a page from the Obama playbook I see: capitulate on your most popular policies before negotiation even starts (because you never really wanted those things anyway).

The Oldest Man posted:I went to Portland and found a bunch of anarchists but they are all doing things I agree with so they can't be anarchists. My conclusion is that anarchists don't exist. I'm a reporter who wrote a piece on anarchism without learning what anarchism means or is. I get paid a lot of money.

gradenko_2000 posted:I keep seeing headlines describe Belarus as an "ex-Soviet" country and I can't help but feel like that's a deliberate decision to phrase it that way just so they can get the word "Soviet" in there At least one Dutch newspaper columnist (in the Dutch equivalent of the Guardian) said Lukashenko has run Belarus as a Soviet-style dictatorship and wrote a whole screed about how finally now Belarus, too, is throwing off the shackles of Sovietism or whatever. It is absolutely deliberate.

Ghost Leviathan posted:fuckin lol that the intelligentsia's entire thing is basically just being pedantic nerds for poo poo no one cares about and they can't even do that right Why would it be any different? It's not like society is a meritocracy where the actual intelligent people become members of the intelligentsia or whatever you want to call the elite. The vast majority of the people you are supposed to look up to and respect as your betters and important experts or very important serious people and whatever else are phony, dumb as gently caress fakers not fit to shoulder even the slightest bit of responsibility.

Rutibex posted:intellectual "property" shouldn't even exist as a concept. humanity has a collective knowledge and restricting access to it in order to make a few bucks is a terrible waste of effort. But then why would anyone ever have an original thought or embark on a creative endeavour if there is no potential massive monetary gain for them? Don't you know that human nature is to only ever be motivated by something we made up a couple thousand years ago to smooth army logistics?

KomradeX posted:Even if it was a full on genocide the US doesnt have a leg to stand on, the poo poo in Yemen isn't even the first genocide it's committed in the last 20 years If you ask the average westerner if the US has ever committed a genocide there's like a 50/50 chance they answer "no, never" and "the Native Americans I guess". Like, we're total outliers knowing anything at all about the situation in Yemen, let alone the US' involvement. Whereas most people would have some idea of the US police maybe being slightly racist sometimes including in the present day.

Kindest Forums User posted:young bankers work as hard as those who work low paying full + part time jobs to make ends meet. The big difference is that they'll have a golden ticket once they reach the age of 30-40 and barely have to work through their later years.
