What?
Y’all already published the “Tee hee! I’ve never heard of Star Wars!” article when the last one came out.
You make a fair point as well, but I think there is a significant demographic (pointing no fingers at the author) who fall into the category of sitting on the couch rolling their eyes at their parents huffing about how they want to be treated like adults, but aren’t asking themselves how they could better act like…
The mark of adulthood isn’t being married or having kids or having a 401(k), it’s accepting (even embracing!) that not everything is supposed to be tailored to you in particular.
If you switch him out for Melo at that post-game presser you’d get about two minutes of eye rolls, head shakes, and bland generalities about the game of basketball. If I got interviewed at my cubicle every day after work I’d be doing the same thing, only it would be far more depressing. At least KP knows people are…
No, it fucking hasn’t. The number of wealthy people has grown. The number of poor people has grown much more quickly. Industriaslization has not spread to former colonies except where created by Soviet-backed, strong-armed import substitution.
Yes, we do. We need to get shit done faster. The cruelties of the world won’t wait for people like you and them to sit with your thumbs up your ass while thousands die preventable deaths because you people don’t have the nuts to actually stand for anything other than keeping things exactly the same.
Except there are many people demanding change, and it’s the centrists and the right-wingers who grasp so deathly dear to slowing everything down, almost always at the sake of profit for the few and privileged.
The shift in US politics in the past decade alone, and most notably the Trumpists, undercuts that theory of the world.
Neoliberalism is like Diet Anarcho-Capitalism
Maybe, just maybe, you don’t understand that they’re not being compelled to do so out of discomfort. It’s actually hinted at pretty heavily by your use of quotation marks as if subsistence farming isn’t a thing that existed for thousands of years before capitalism did.
Which would you rather be, a subsistence farmer who comfortably owns their own land or a garment manufacturer who makes $2 a day and sleeps in a cot owned by their employer and might just die when the factory collapses in on itself? That’s what people mean when they say people are being pulled out of poverty by…
The ACA is, at its core, a massive give-away to health insurance companies, in that the ACA sets the boundaries of the healthcare conversation such that anyone who wants care must situate themselves within those boundaries, and those boundaries are determined by private companies.
“but not for everyone, so we should make some technocratic adjustments to X, Y, and Z programs which we think research suggests would fix the problem.”
Ugh. I can tell you from experience, this crowd is a dreary bunch and hardly worth trolling. We have extensive files on r/neoliberal’s membership and it is by far the most heavily infested segment of Reddit with paid commentators. We know there is a cabal of deep-pocketed Clintonite dullards who are dead set on…
There are few things that are worse than a 20 year old who is sure of himself.
holy fuck this is so secondhand embarrassing
Unless they wear a headscarf/covering for religious reasons, in which case FUCK EM!
So casually racist?
