ALIENS. *FINALLY* someone is fessing up to it. Ob. link.

And an AI found it. You realize it takes one to know one, right?

That's actually kind of arguable. OG Marxism said that people's primary identity was from class rather than race or gender.

Modern Identity politics says the opposite. So it doesn't matter if Mummy and Daddy paid for you to get a useless Ivy League degree after a well funded gap year, so long as you are part of, or at least claim to be part, of an oppressed group - non white, non male or non straight - you're part of the new proletariat. Conversely a working class straight white man is a part of the evil oppressor class because of his gender, sexuality and race.

I.e. modern identity politics is almost the inverse of OG Marxism. Long may it continue...

This would be roughly 2003

But today. No thanks.

That's hot!

Isn't this what they meant by the Paris accord?

More Apple shenanigans with OSX 10.10.5 Calculator app:

99.99
[+/-]
= -99.98999999999999 (WTF?)

-0.01
= -99.99999999999999 (WTF!?)

Apple Logic: 99.99 [+/-] - 0.01 = -99.99. ** double facepalm **

You are assuming that either option is better. I disagree with your premise.

Analogy(*) Time!

Q. Would you like to be:

* Raped first, then murdered? OR
* Murdered first, then Raped?

A. The response NEITHER is a VALID answer.

There are at LEAST _four_ different answers -- some sick fucko might go "Both?"

/Oblg. I could explain it for you ...

(*) I neither approve nor condone. This imaginary example is just for illustration purposes only to make a point how stupid some people's logic is.

I choose to believe was I was programmed to believe!

We can say this because it may in fact be easier to get to Mars and create a colony there than some places on Earth.

I think we should immediately switch to the Bender quote right now, bypassing all the racism and religious bias. We would save decades of pointless wars.

(You)

rsilvergun, you're going to hate me for this - but I read in what you write the sense of entitlement causing a generation of people to think rewards come without work.

Stay classy, Old Economy Steve.

Starting with the fact that your kid hit college unprepared - sounds like she didn't push or excel in school, so doesn't have academic or athletic scholarships. And if that's the case, perhaps you should have encouraged her to try an alternative method to adulthood; vocational training. Learning a useful skill? My wife made some poor choices when she was younger, and isn't going to college until now - in her 40s - which her employer is paying for as long as she maintains As. Your daughter could do the same?

Why should someone have to excel to make a decent living and not be crushed with five figures in student loan debt? You do know that full ride scholarships are unicorns, right? That $500 scholarship or grant she applied for and got may count as a "scholarship", but it also might only pay for 2-3 books for a single semester. You also know that a bachelors degree is the new high school diploma for employers, yes?

Here's an idea - if you want your daughter to be economically sound, enlist her in the army.

Here's a better idea: just be open about your "beliefs" and openly advocate for a caste system, but one based on how much money your parents have as opposed to ancestry. If your parent flipped burgers, you will flip burgers. Want to be a doctor? Don't even think about it, unless you join the military - who might not even send you to medical school - and be an occupying capitalist stooge in return.

Problem is people don't really want to think, they want to be told what to think.

Actually I think our biggest failure was raising you with no respect for what you have been provided throughout your life. Yea, you are the poor family with 7 kids to a single mom. I get it, you are angry and you feel all the worlds problems are the fault of someone else. Every heard the phrase "If you are not part of the solution....". So before ranting about how someone else messed up everything, the question you need to ask yourself "What could have I done to prevent it".

Whatever you say, Old Economy Steve.

You are technically correct -- the best kind of correct.

Their equally-looking school teachers tell them the same thing every day.

I'm not too bothered about the display on my phone, but I'm desperate to see LCD replaced in the desktop monitor market. I'm still hanging on to a Sony FW900 CRT monitor, and it is astounding how good it looks next to a supposedly professional grade LCD ... hopefully we might finally get a display technology that's can deliver a decent image.

Hmm...

/Oblg. Hard to tell if you are being sarcastic or serious.

You DO realize that Hope is not just limited to one specific age group, right?

The Wright Brothers had faith and hope.
Astronauts and all of NASA driving the Apollo program had faith and hope.

There have been many men & women, young and old, that have had faith, and have overcome their goals.

Who really cares if it is the Millennials or not?

No, "free speech" doesn't exist outside the context of the first amendment.

Words can have many meanings such that the intent of the writers and context often has to be considered also:

So I guess links like this won't be appreciated.

Well... the values seem to be decreasing fast enough, but it could use more ZAS.

lately, US news and politics are more vapid and transparent than grumpy cat's take on things. the reality is that our political system is really because voters are gullible enough to thing they have a choice about what happens when it's really a one party system. the news spews lies about everything like it's DEFCON 1 everyday when they are speaking of meaninal bullshit. meanwhile there are serious matters that has caused a massive schism in the middle class and shit is hitting the fan. if you protest you are either cordoned off and ignored and/or abused by the police which are not help accountable for their actions. can you blame us for wanting an escape? (psst, the answer is here)

I figured it out.

Let the butthurt flow through you, James Comey!

One thing Sarkeesian should do is work on her misandrism, objectification, and stereotyping of men, starting with the images of fat, lazy male gamers she keeps flashing in the background. The way she stereotypes and puts down men is offensive. And she should work on actually making a point instead of just rambling on.
