Not saying that this is the case but the astronomical costs of college and rising student loan debt is becoming a major problem. People in their 20s can't afford their own homes because they're tens or hundreds of thousands in debt while making essentially entry level excrement money at their 9-5s
Post by: Tommy on November 13, 2015, 03:05:35 PM
To be fair teenagers are led to believe that college is a necessity, the more prestigious the better as long as you get a degree. Finances and loans won't matter because you have a degree from Columbia, recruiters will be knocking at your door the moment you graduate.

You'd think people would get wise to this though. Having a degree from a prestigious school can open doors in the beginning, but you still have to be good at what you do in order to excel and get ahead. The degree means nothing after a few years. Without one, you won't have a glamorous job at first, but if you work hard and learn the ropes, your opportunities will get progressively better.
Post by: Miamipuck on November 13, 2015, 03:15:37 PM
Ask any HR person worth their salt and it's just like Tommy said, "the prestigious schools get you in the door initially." However once you're a few years into your career the quality of your school takes a back seat to the quality of your work experience and core talents. Of course there are always going to be bastions of the powerhouse schools that will only allow entry to a certain privileged few, but there aren't enough to make student debts of $200,000 palatable.

I'll admit that I fell into that too, despite my previous post being pretty condescending. The only thing that stopped me from going out of state for a lot of money were my shitty grades and my parents refusing to cosign for a parents plus loan. They didn't understand why I would pay $40k a year when CUNY and SUNY schools were a fraction of that.

Why? At least a 4 year college gives you a balanced education and allows you to form your own decision within that time on what to focus on. Vocational schools are pretty specific. I wasted a year and a half at a technical school for computer networking before deciding that I really didn't like it. Hardly any of my credits were transferable, so it was essentially wasted money.

They're like lawyers in the sense that a straightforward concept is made verbose and confusing, technical legalese if you will. (FU KOZ)
Real-world hands-on networking I think can be very rewarding. As you start to learn and master the fundamentals it's really cool to know how information gets from point A to point B

The fact that you didn't like computer networking doesn't mean there shouldn't be schools that don't waste the time of a guy who wants to go straight into it. The attitude of 'everyone should have a balanced education' is part of the problem.

I don't know what the solution is but a balanced education isn't a bad thing. Though it is funny how majors mean nothing for the most part. I have coworkers who do the same thing I do with degrees in history, marketing, English, finance, and I have a dual degree in Economics and East Asian Art History, so there's no real sense behind it to be honest.

This is the biggest problem. I heard the same crap when I was in high school about needing to do this and that for my future. I applied to only one school and they called me down like every day to tell me what a mistake I was making.
The day I was going to start high school, my dad, a single parent, retired police officer, said that my only job over the next four years was to get into Rutgers. I did that, got a scholarship, and lived at home for three of the four years I went to school. Total school bill for the four years ended up at around 16k, and I graduated with exactly zero debt. My wife, from NY, did the same, went to Binghamton, also has zero debt.
I'm somewhat an anomaly of my friends because when they talk about how great it would be to have their debt forgiven, I say it's bullshit. They're no more entitled to getting a 100k check to pay off their debt than I am just because they made a short sighted decision ten years ago.

Debt forgiveness should never, ever happen. I know someone who pays the interest each month and that's about it. She owes $125k and ha no intention of actually paying it off. She's waiting for her forgiveness.
In my opinion she can have it.

Ottawa – Student leaders have pulled the mat out from 60 University of Ottawa students, ending a free on-campus yoga class over fears the teachings could be seen as a form of “cultural appropriation.”
Jennifer Scharf, who has been offering free weekly yoga instruction to students since 2008, says she was shocked when told in September the program would be suspended.
Staff at the Centre for Students with Disabilities believe that “while yoga is a really great idea and accessible and great for students … there are cultural issues of implication involved in the practice,” according to an email from the centre.
The centre is operated by the university’s Student Federation, which first approached Scharf seven years ago about offering yoga instruction to students both with and without disabilities.
The centre goes on to say, “Yoga has been under a lot of controversy lately due to how it is being practiced,” and which cultures those practices “are being taken from.”
The centre official argues since many of those cultures “have experienced oppression, cultural genocide and diasporas due to colonialism and western supremacy … we need to be mindful of this and how we express ourselves while practising yoga.”

I remember working this shitty derriere telemarketing job in college, and a few of us were complaining while on break. I said "they're treating us like Fuckn slaves." Two of the guys we were with were black. They laughed and agreed with me. The other white dude called me out for saying "slave" in front of them as its offensive. The black dudes almost got into a fight with the white dude for telling them what should offend them. It was a pretty awesome scene.

They already have awards specifically for black performers. Just a little rant. She's not wrong about creating separate content, though. As much as I hate Tyler Perry's shitty work, he produces niche movies that are very successful. If black filmmakers can embrace the fact that they don't need a ton of money to make smaller pictures, they could actually build a stronger black film industry to tell stories that appeal to black audiences and get Hollywood to notice. Black centered films just don't have as much of an audience. If you start getting Latinos to go to Latino oriented films and eschew predominantly white ones, that would make a bigger impact.

I can think of a lot of great performances by black actors that have been recognised over the years by the Academy. African-Americans represent 13% of the US population, but have won 20% of the Best Actor awards in the last 15 years. If you total up the awards for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress, black actors have won 15% of the awards in the last 15 years.
I'm inclined to think that the problem might be less that the Academy is unwilling to nominate deserving black actors, and more that Hollywood doesn't create enough good roles for black actors.

I'm trying to think of any black actors who could reasonably claim to have been snubbed this year other than Idris Elba for Beasts Of No Nation (I haven't seen it but I have seen enough reviews to think that he may have a legitimate case).

They already have awards specifically for black performers. Just a little rant. She's not wrong about creating separate content, though. As much as I hate Tyler Perry's shitty work, he produces niche movies that are very successful. If black filmmakers can embrace the fact that they don't need a ton of money to make smaller pictures, they could actually build a stronger black film industry to tell stories that appeal to black audiences and get Hollywood to notice. Black centered films just don't have as much of an audience. If you start getting Latinos to go to Latino oriented films and eschew predominantly white ones, that would make a bigger impact.
So you're for segregation in Hollywood. Got it.

Nobody who isn't in or affiliated with school gives a excrement about Black History month until they are worried someone expects them to give a excrement about Black History month.
I just never saw the point. Black history is part of American history. We're already taught about notable African-American throughout school. I think it's demeaning to have one month dedicated to African-American history, as if to say no one would give a excrement unless it's shoved down people's throats.

Pretty simple solution: just have school uniforms for everyone. Shorts, pants, polos. Problem solved. If kids are really distracting each other with what they wear, then they should have no problem. If students are really doing this because they're worried about gender equality, then they should have no problem with uniforms.
They probably also don't want to see a guy coming to school wearing a dress, getting picked on relentlessly, and then having him commit suicide. A lot of bullying in public schools stem from what kids are wearing. I don't think it's unreasonable to have kids wear uniforms.

Schools are in a excrement position. Bullying should be stopped, but you can't fully do that without changing the minds of ensuing generations, and that doesn't just automatically happen and usually needs to start at home or early in the socialization process. So, schools get these kids who are assholes about things that don't affect them that they didn't have to accept when they were younger and suddenly the school is expected to change them all at once. So either the school is discriminating against these kids who are different or opening up the school to increased bullying.
From a pragmatic standpoint, there's no winner in a battle between protecting individual rights here and protecting liability for the school. Uniforms seem perfectly reasonable at schools that will have an issue. Of course, not all of them do. I had to go see a high school production of Rent at a private school here and there was a boy playing Angel who apparently cross dresses at school sometimes and nobody gives a freak. That's just not going to happen most places.
We need to change the culture that says "bullying is good because it makes people become more normal", but acceptance can't happen everywhere all at once.

(Salon) — I only described MSNBC host Joe Scarborough’s subtweet of Hillary Clinton as annoying to keep the trolls out. But let’s be honest, it’s subversively sexist. Call it casual sexism, call it ever day sexism, call whatever you’d like, but it’s flippant, cavalier and annoying at best and sexist in all likelihood.
(Gawker) — Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough has a helpful little message for former Secretary of State and current presidential candidate Hillary Clinton: Smile, babe! Scarborough, a dear old friend of Donald Trump, sent out the tweet (that was just trying to be helpful you know look so much prettier when you smile!) during Clinton’s triumphant victory speech.
(Mashable) — At this point, men have to know better than to tell a woman to smile. Hillary Clinton had an incredible night during Tuesday’s primaries, locking down Florida and sealing a surprise win in Ohio. But Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, thought she could have acted, like, a little happier about it.
(ThinkPro) — This is far from the first time media members have used gender-encoded language to describe Clinton. In early February, Journalist Bob Woodward of Watergate fame said Clinton “shouts” too much, and MSNBC’s Morning Joe commentators launched into a lengthy discussion that touched on many of the common tropes about Clinton: “screaming,” acting “unnatural,” and being “feisty.” The sexism of the 2008 campaign was so heavyhanded that it inspired the Women’s Media Center to draw up a guide to gender neutral coverage of female politicians for reporters. Research done by a WMC affiliate found that simply mentioning a female candidate’s appearance, whether to disparage, praise, or notice, hurts her election chances. The center has also identified certain words, like “feisty” and “scold,” as female-specific dogwhistles that can impact public perception. Clinton has said she has learned to stop worrying about the attacks. “It is just never ending,” she told Diane Sawyer in an interview. “You get a little worried about, okay, people over on this side are loving what I’m wearing, looking like, saying…I’m done with that. I’m just done.”

THE TAB – Anonymous Emory students defaced the University in support for Trump.
This morning Emory students woke up to an ode to Trump. Some one or some group of people has chalked support for Trump all over campus. The perpetrators have written “Trump” everywhere from the library and DUC entrances to every tile surround Asbury Circle.
While many students see the graffiti as a joke, Some have criticized the vandalism as a display of cowardice.
On many college campuses support for Trump isn’t exactly broadcasted given his offensive nature. This may be a sign of an actual silent majority coming out or it can just as easily be a very thorough prank.

HuffPo – This morning I was walking into my building and a man was walking parallel with me. He was going towards one set of doors; I was going towards a pair adjacent to them. He smiled at me and gestured me over to his side with a head nod. “Let me get the door for you.” (He meant let me get these doors over here for you.)
I capitulated, averted my path over to his doors, smiled and said thank you. Then, as we approached the second set of doors into the lobby, he yelled out, “I’ll get those, too.” He wanted to do it. So I waited for him to catch up. And then out of obligation I thanked him again, but I was annoyed.
I thought of the men on Reddit who call women cunts because some ladies don’t want the door opened for them. Every time I read the men’s wounded lash-outs, I sadly laugh at how they think the thing is the thing. The door isn’t the thing. For me, the incident this morning was a bang-on metaphor for my experiences as a woman. The millions of small ways that I’ve been forced to surrender to men, who made me move or change or come to them because they felt like it. The ways that I’ve had to change my path in magnitudes great and small.
I cannot tell a man about the endless parade of minor indecencies, artful put-downs, implicit shushes, subtle dismissals, or friendly coercions under the cover of niceness. Without the experiences to go with it, he simply cannot understand what it’s like to be a woman.
They think I’m trying to tell them that I don’t like doors opened for me. I won’t ever be able to explain it.

Some self-righteous morons actually complained that we partnered with a religious group rather than a secular one. I didn't know it was possible for people to find a way to complain about Fuckn charity.

My company partnered with this volunteer organization called God's Love We Deliver, so that we can run company-sponsored charity events during the day. Delivering food to poor people, excrement like that.

Eh, there are some religious charities I have an objection to helping as well. I don't mind religious charities doing good work as long as they aren't attempting to impose their beliefs or their morality on the people they're helping - charity isn't supposed to be a transaction of aid in exchange for indoctrination, it's aid given without strings or stipulations because the need exists.
I can't speak to the one you're talking about, but if they're using their works to promote their beliefs rather than doing the work as a result of their beliefs then I sympathise with the people who are less than happy.

It's really not indoctrinating at all. My Catholic high school hosted a soup kitchen every Sunday. I volunteered once and at no point was there any talk of God etc.

Like I said, some do and some don't. The Salvation Army used to refuse aid to people based on sexuality. Christian Aid used to hand out Bibles along with food. Lots of religious charities don't have any of these issues, but it's not unreasonable for people to not want to be part of conditional giving.

Fair enough. But this particular person is against this charity only because of the name. Would be different if it was one of those charities you're referring to, but the "idiot rage" part of this is that she knows nothing about it yet complains all because of the name.

Saying that women have higher standards than men when it comes to who they'll actually get with is absolutely true. When it comes down to it, men will sleep with just about anyone. It's animal nature. Males of any species seek to spread their seed as widely as possible to ensure propagation of their genes. Females are the ones who become highly selective as they have fewer chances. I'm not sure why anyone would be surprised at the way that manifests itself among humans.

Also, your response of "I dunno" to whether the mom is a psycho...you think the response of "I WILL SHOW THIS TO EVERY WOMAN YOU BRING HOME AND BUST IT OUT ON YOUR WEDDING DAY" is appropriate?
I think it's funny. I think a lot of people need to learn just how visible they and their opinions are on the internet, and that the ramifications can go beyond anything you could imagine. I suspect that Mum is being somewhat hyperbolic, and anyway he presumably knows how much of a fruit loop or otherwise she is.

I'm always a bit sceptical of these sorts of pieces. I'm not sure that me asking you to call me Ze and me not doing so is going to result in my being prosecuted or fined, this kind of thing presumably exists for those kind of situations where someone deliberately and aggressively goes out of their way to make the individual feel uncomfortable e.g. a boss insisting on addressing someone born female but identifying and living as a male as "Miss".
The whole gender identity thing is much harder for me to understand than sexuality, but the vast majority of the time these situations seem to be fairly easily resolved through exercising a modicum of politeness.

Daily Mail- Disney World have cut all alligator and crocodile jokes and characters from its Orlando resort in the wake of the fatal attack on a two-year-old boy. It is less than two weeks since two-year-old Lane Graves died after being dragged into the Seven Seas Lagoon at Walt Disney World by one of the predators.
Today, Disney reopened its beaches, which now have fences and signs warning visitors of alligators in the area. But the signs are not the only change to the resort after the tragedy. Walt Disney World has also removed all alligator and crocodile jokes from the park’s scripts, as well as familiar characters such as Peter Pan’s Tick Tock Croc, InsideTheMagic reports. Visitors on the Jungle Cruise ride may notice that the boat captain no longer makes a crocodiles on the shore of the attraction. One joke in particular, which has been in the ride’s scripts since the early 1960s, warned parents to ‘watch your children, or the crocodiles will’.
Visitors say staff no longer try to scare tourists by claiming that the rickety bridge on the tour may dump them into the crocodile pit below. Even the Tick Tock Croc float, which typically appears in the Magic Kingdom’s Festival of Fantasy parade, has been temporarily removed over decency concerns

That's my feeling too. It's natural people would think it was the Star of David, and it's done in a nice subtle way for his followers to make that association, even perhaps subconsciously. Ultimately, though, it's pretty irrelevant. If you can't handle jokes about Jews being money grubbing and underhanded, you'd better stop listening to every Jewish comic ever and stop watching Mel Brooks movies.

How does one torture the anniversary of official independence from the British Empire into being a "white supremacist holiday"?
You know, all those angry Boston merchants who got us involved in an actual revolt. White supremacy reigned supreme in a colony where free blacks outnumbered slaves 5 to 1, a ratio that was steeply climbing.
Boston is more racist now than it was in the late 1700s.

The Revolution originated in Boston, largely among the merchant class. Boston and the British response dragged other colonies into the fight. Manumission was in such full effect by the outbreak of war that there were 5 times as many free blacks as slaves in Massachusetts. While less likely that they'd be merchants, the merchants in the colony sure as hell weren't trying to preserve slavery. They'd already ceased to make as much money off it as they once had.

The wealthy class still had slaves in the northern colonies, mostly to work on the farms during season or as house servants. The only reason why the South was more pro-slavery was because the year round hot weather made having slaves extremely profitable, even for poorer farmers. Their economy depended on it. It was economics. It's not like northerners were just nicer people. Hell they openly discriminated against the Irish until the 19th century.

I didn't say they didn't have slaves. I said the proportion of free blacks to slaves was quite high by the revolution, and Massachusetts abolished slavery shortly after.
And the South came to rely on slavery largely because of the failures of indentured servitude to provide adequate labor to colonies which were limited in their ability to continue westward expansion, coupled with economic ties to the Caribbean and even a desire by SC to capitalize on the rice growing techniques of tribes like the Ibo in Western Africa.
I also didn't say that Northerners were "nicer people". I said the idea that the a Revolution was primarily the product of white supremacists aka slaveowners was silly given the origins of the Revolution. Even the limited presence of slaves in the North at that time was rooted in tradition and family history. You didn't find the same arguments (paternalism, biblical allusions to Ham or Cain, etc) that you did in a South dependent on slavery for its very survival.
And there were tons of poor farmers who couldn't afford slaves in the South. Go look up the numbers of non slaveowners and the ownership stats of the largest plantation owners.

Michael Phelps won his 21st Olympic gold medal Tuesday night, his 12th individual Olympic title.
Fellow American swimmer Katie Ledecky also added a new gold medal to her growing collection, placing first in the 200-meter freestyle.
Ledecky's impressive performance in Rio de Janeiro for the 2016 Summer Games has led some people to refer to the up-and-coming Olympian as the "female Michael Phelps."
To be fair, the comparison is meant as a compliment: Phelps is widely considered the greatest swimmer of all time. Yet one can't help but wonder, in the midst of an Olympics that has been tainted by commentators using sexist language to describe female athletes: What if it's not that Ledecky is the female Phelps?
What if Phelps is the male Ledecky?
Exhibit A: He swims like a woman.
An Olympic commentator recently said Ledecky "swims like a man." But this commenter is wrong. Ledecky doesn't "swim like a man" (whatever the hell that means) — rather, Phelps swims like a woman.
Just look at that woman swimming, in such a dainty, womanly fashion. Would you like some tea and crumpets when you get out of the pool, ma'am?
Exhibit B: Phelps, like Ledecky, has beaten men.
In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Phelps' teammate Conor Dwyer described what it was like to swim alongside Ledecky: "She'd just start beating me every single 100, and slowly but surely you get broken — and your morale goes down quickly when you get broken by a female in practice."
One wonders whether Dwyer feels the same way swimming alongside Phelps, a man who has presumably also beaten him many times during practice.
Exhibit C: They both do that thing with their arms.
See below for a side-by-side comparison of the two swimmers. Notice how they're both doing what Olympic commentator Bob Costas has referred to as "you know, that thing they do with their arms."
Michael Phelps, the Male Katie Ledecky, Just Made Olympic History
Phelps (man) left, Ledecky (woman) right
So it's settled: Michael Phelps is indeed the male Katie Ledecky. Now let's stop using male athletes as a reference for describing female ones and maybe get back to arguing over why the hell the diving pool was green in the first place.

Indeed, the politics of swimming in the U.S. mirrors our history of segregation and white resistance to integration. Still today, attitudes about swimming often reflect lasting stereotypes and white America's attitudes about race.I've been saying this for years. Black people cant swim, so it's only fair that they aren't allowed in the Olympics.

Daily Mail- Attracting the biggest stars of the year, the Met Gala is one of the hottest nights on the celebrity calendar. Yet landing the golden ticket doesn’t necessarily mean a great night out – not least because guests are seated according to a strict table plan. Lena Dunham opened up about her own experience placed next to Khloe Kardashian’s love interest Odell Beckham Jr at this year’s bash – admitting she couldn’t have been more miserable.
‘I was sitting next to Odell Beckham Jr., and it was so amazing because it was like he looked at me and he determined I was not the shape of a woman by his standards. ‘He was like, “That’s a marshmallow. That’s a child. That’s a dog.” It wasn’t mean — he just seemed confused.’ Talking to Amy Schumer, who she was interviewing for her Lenny Letters series, Lena said the sports star ignored her in favour of his phone.
‘The vibe was very much like, “Do I want to f*** it? Is it wearing a … yep, it’s wearing a tuxedo. I’m going to go back to my cell phone.” ‘It was like we were forced to be together, and he literally was scrolling Instagram rather than have to look at a woman in a bow tie. ‘I was like, “This should be called the Metropolitan Museum of Getting Rejected by Athletes.”

It doesn't say the algorithms are racist; it says they're used to perpetuate racism. That may very well be true, but for the life of me I can't imagine what the freak the alternative is to using them in a massively overcrowded judicial system and overall in a country of this size. Good for better people than me trying to figure out a way to fix it, but I won't be surprised if they shockingly discover that it's the best system we have right now.

Quote
(Newser) – It’s time to abolish the ownership of pets, or “animal slaves” as two Rutgers law professors call them. “They do not belong in our world, irrespective of how well we treat them,” Gary Francione and Anna Charlton write in Aeon. “We control their lives for ever.” Charlton and Francione, who own six rescue dogs themselves, argue that pet ownership, animal domestication, zoos, aquariums, and the eating of animal products must be done away with because “these violate the fundamental rights of animals.” And they don’t mean “animal rights” as it’s usually thought of but something much closer to human rights, comparing humanity’s use of animals to slavery, in which animals are property and as such can never truly have rights.
To say that an animal has a right not to be used as property is simply to say that we have a moral obligation to not use animals as things, even if it would benefit us to do so. With respect to domesticated animals, that means that we stop bringing them into existence altogether. We have a moral obligation to care for those right-holders we have here presently. But we have an obligation not to bring any more into existence.
And this includes dogs, cats and other non-humans who serve as our ‘companions’.
“Animals have a moral right not to be used exclusively as human resources,” Francione and Charlton write. “Substantially all of our uses of animals must be abolished.” They say we must stop breeding pets as even the most well-treated poodle is still property and therefore has no rights. The killing of animals for meat is also no different than reviled “sports” like dog fighting. In both cases, animals are harmed simply for human enjoyment (Francione and Charlton note a vegan diet is perfectly healthy for humans). Even if laws were created and enforced to require pets be treated as close to humans as possible, that then takes away the right of people to breed more of them. As it is, the current treatment of pets would be considered “torture” were they humans. Read the full piece here.

I leave my front door open all the time through the summer, the dogs can leave any time they want. They've made it abundantly clear that they'd much rather be here where they get food, shelter, playtime, treats and a procession of women doting on them.
So the slaves won't leave? Funny mine won't either and after I whip them for being lazy and having fun, they still come to me to get rubbed.

Compare with someone telling their friend a racist joke in the pub. If he says it quietly enough and only the friend hears, it's not a thing. If he's had a couple of drinks and accidentally says it loud enough that the black guys on the next table hear it, he's going to get his derriere kicked and he's going to deserve it. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for you to hear it" is no justification.

That's a terrible analogy. She didn't say it in public and someone else overheard. One of her friends made it public. If someone took some of the excrement that got posted here and sent it to employers, it could be grounds for firing. And it would be incredibly wrong and fucked up for anyone to do that.

Maybe she should've just owned up to it because it's pretty damn obvious. "Sorry, we were wearing this black facemask stuff and went too far with a joke." Denying it completely is just dumb.
She did own up to it. She admitted everything she did. The idea that she's in blackface is wrong. She's doing some kind of mud facial thing and made a joke about it. It was a really offensive joke, but she told the truth in that statement. They weren't putting burnt cork on to try to make fun. They saw an opportunity for a joke in what they were doing and made that joke to their friends on snapchat. She's a shitty person, but being a shitty person doesn't mean you should get sold out by your alleged friends and kicked out of school.

Pretty much all of us would have to start our own business after the excrement we say to one another because we would be unhireable.

Aw, that's cute. Hey everybody, check out Grandad here and his expectation of privacy on the internet.
She created a personably identifiable digital file and sent it over the internet. They teach kids about that excrement in primary school these days - put something online and you have no sensible expectation of privacy. The fact that it made into public view is proof of that.

Can I just quote myself again so you can read what I wrote this time?
"There's an expectation of privacy, however foolish, with stuff you share with your friends on snapchat."
Snapchat was built and sold on the expectation of privacy, so it's natural for someone to FOOLISHLY expect that same privacy. This isn't like posting something on the messageboard and someone finding it. This is a friend going out of his or her way to take a private conversation and broadcast it. It was foolish of her to think it would necessarily stay private, but that's just as much on the person who shared it as it is on her.

This girl was apparently pre-med. She's never getting into another school now. Her career aspirations are over. And why? Because she made a horrible joke to her friends, and one of those friends turned around and plastered it all over the internet. Was it an awful joke? Yes. Is she likely a piece of excrement? Yes. However, JE insists it's completely on her and, therefore, totally merited. I say if someone on here took someone's posts and gets them fired (and plenty of our members have said things that could ruin them), the person who shared it with malicious intent would be a piece of excrement too. Plenty of assholes in this story, but I find it interesting how the only one considered the villain is the girl making the stupid joke and being stupid enough to think Snapchat's promises of privacy would keep her private joke private.

Don't paraphrase me.
What I said is that if you submit something on the internet, regardless of how secure your app tells you it is, that a) is completely inappropriate and b) contains clearly identifiable information that links that post to you (e.g. a photo of you), then you deserve everything you get. Yes, you might have legitimate claim to call out the person who makes it public as a queynte, but it makes you no less of a queynte for a) believing you had any privacy on the internet or b) saying that excrement in the first place.
It's why we introduced the rule on here about personally identifying information, and it's one of the reasons why I make no apology for deleting some of the more unnecessary and unpleasant excrement that some idiots insist on posting when they've had a sniff of the barmaid's apron. I don't want to be associated with that kind of bullshit IRL, no matter how tangentially, and I'm pretty sure you don't either.

Anyone can make anything public. Your contention seems to be that it's perfectly fine for some random girl's life to be completely ruined by a single photo that was never intended to be public. I really don't get that. Obviously I'm not ok with the joke. I just don't get the idea that she should be kicked out of school and have any chance of med school killed by it and you deem it an appropriate reaction.
Do you know how many posts on here could destroy any one of us in that situation? And yet here we are planning get togethers to make sure we can all put a face and name to these posts that we expect to carry a degree of anonymity. I like to think that if someone lost his job over the excessive use of the word bundle of sticks on here, it would be deemed an inappropriate reaction, but you think it's the person's own fault and they deserve what they get.

I didn't say that it's perfectly fine for her life to be ruined, but I do think that it's incredibly naive of someone in this day and age to not realise the potential ramifications of their online behaviour. FWIW, I also don't think it's an overreaction by the school, because once that Snapchat image is in the public domain then failure to act upon it can be interpreted as tacit approval, or at the very least ambivalence.
As to posts on here, you might well be right. Perhaps people would be well served by considering whether it's OK to say things online that they wouldn't say in public, because while I think we do a reasonable job of ensuring that it's difficult to attribute posts to individuals IRL, I'm going to struggle to have too much sympathy if someone ends up facing real world ramifications for writing inappropriate things on the site in some kind of misplaced belief that it's a consequence free safe space.

while i agree with your thoughts about privacy, it's all theoretical and apps like snapchat can do nothing to regulate or uphold said rules regarding privacy. the immediacy, accessibility, and general 'closeness' apps like snapchat and others provide to us nowadays have really changed the lines regarding privacy, whether you or i agree with that or not.
in essence, i should have my privacy, but nobody can guarantee it....therefore i'm not going to risk anything. because of where i am, my position, where i would like to go, etc etc, i'd never risk making a post or a snap of something that would be deemed inappropriate, insensitive, not politically correct, etc because of its potential ramifications. it's why youll only see me displaying snaps of some boring excrement like the moon or sunsets. my social media is dry as excrement, and for good reason.
there wasn't any snapchat, instagram, or twitter when i was 18, but i had a general idea of this stuff back then, and i'd like to think that if i was an 18 year old today i'd feel the same way about it. there's no point in risking it, even if it's something i send to a close friend in private. IMO taking a risk like that shows she might not understand what it entails to make it in that field, but maybe that's a bit harsh, as she is 18 and probably still pretty immature based on her actions.
on another note, the medical profession is one where its members are expected to approach any and all people they see, patient or non-patient, without bias, accepting of all irrespective of their skin color, their background, etc. are there doctors with shitty views? sure, the selection process does not obviously reveal all. however, i'd feel very EDIT: UNcomfortable knowing that a doctor of mine once put mud on her face as some sort of cleanse or whatever she was doing, and then sent a picture to a friend saying 'hey i know what it feels like to be an N-word now' (is that what she said? i haven't been following it completely, but i dont really care). it's not something you would even joke about. she joked about it and then accepted the huge risk/consequences of her action when she hit send.
EDIT: in regards to comments about how privacy differs here vs snapchat, yeah, i get it. i think JE commented on this though. the same rules should apply to both apps, but when you make an insensitive comment here, i see you as IJR. I don't know who you are, what you do, what your real name is, etc etc etc. that's vastly different than sending a snap, with a username that most likely has your name on it, to your friends who know it's your username, with an image that has your face in it.....where a screen shot can easily be obtained and then subsequently disseminated throughout the net.....and these are kids dealing with other kids we're talking about. do you guys know your names behind the avatars? sure. would it be easy to let the world know who's who? sure. but i think that would entail actually recording someone say 'hey my name is ____, aka ____ from jetoffensive', or having a chat/text history of such an exchange. i have a feeling it'd be a lot harder to prove who's who behind the screens unless you had something as concrete as an image identifying your face, with the username in the top corner, and an incriminating tagline at your disposal.
just dont take the risk. that's all

My biggest issue, as I have tried to stress, is with the severity of the reaction proportional to the action. It's a huge problem today. This girl made an awful joke to her friends and now has dropped a ton of money into a degree she will never achieve toward a future she will never attain. That's justice for a racist joke? Instead of creating a teachable moment, this girl is now trashed and people will learn nothing. freak that. It's so hugely disproportionate.
As for ramifications here, I know at least half the board by name. I know where they work, who their families are, and plenty of other identifiable info. There are multiple threads devoted to an event to get several of these "anonymous" posters together for a weekend. The idea that it would be justified to ruin someone's life over a large sample of behavior let alone ONE post is bizarre to me.
As I told JE, the f slur gets dropped constantly here. I'm guessing no one would want an employer seeing that. I sure as hell wouldn't want people I know reading my old joke thread about freaking a retarded girl behind the drive thru. Apparently it would be my own fault and perfectly justified if I lost my future over it. If my wife used it to take my kids in a custody battle, some people here would shrug and say "shouldn't have made the joke. Deserved to lose your kids." I don't get it.

A few thoughts:
-As someone who deals with crazy at work on a regular basis, she is crazy. I guarantee she has at least one interaction like this every week, if not more often.
-If I walk into a Subway and see that banshee at the counter I'm doing a 180 and walking out, I've never needed a Subway sandwich so badly that I'd endure that for more than a few seconds.
-What's that Korean thing on the menu?

I said right away that the expectation of privacy is foolish. I never argued it was outrageously unexpected for stuff to get out. However, a lot of people don't get it since Snapchat marketed something it can't actually provide. It was incredibly stupid of her, which has never been a point of contention despite being treated as one here.
My biggest issue, as I have tried to stress, is with the severity of the reaction proportional to the action. It's a huge problem today. This girl made an awful joke to her friends and now has dropped a ton of money into a degree she will never achieve toward a future she will never attain. That's justice for a racist joke? Instead of creating a teachable moment, this girl is now trashed and people will learn nothing. freak that. It's so hugely disproportionate.
As for ramifications here, I know at least half the board by name. I know where they work, who their families are, and plenty of other identifiable info. There are multiple threads devoted to an event to get several of these "anonymous" posters together for a weekend. The idea that it would be justified to ruin someone's life over a large sample of behavior let alone ONE post is bizarre to me.
As I told JE, the f slur gets dropped constantly here. I'm guessing no one would want an employer seeing that. I sure as hell wouldn't want people I know reading my old joke thread about freaking a retarded girl behind the drive thru. Apparently it would be my own fault and perfectly justified if I lost my future over it. If my wife used it to take my kids in a custody battle, some people here would shrug and say "shouldn't have made the joke. Deserved to lose your kids." I don't get it.
i missed that you were talking about whether the punishment fitting the crime, honestly i've skimmed through a lot of the posts in this thread.
do i think it's a very harsh punishment for a shitty snap? sure i do, i honestly do. do i think this girl would have learned anything from a lesser punishment? i think she would have learned to be more careful with who you send excrement to, and to be more wary of making jokes of that sort in general. the school decided to do what they did, it's harsh and it sucks but what can we really do about it? it goes without saying that the world isn't in perfect balance when it comes to justification for ones actions, as shitty as it is to say that. i'm sure you know that you're more likely to get a bad break than a lucky one. at the least that's what i would believe, and operating off that principle i try to be very careful with what i post on IG, snapchat, twitter, etc. the punishment was harsh, but i still maintain that a lazy, shitty joke like that shouldn't be made in the first place...even in private...especially considering the potential downfall in a world that is more likely to be harsh on you than to give you a pat on the back, and especially considering the current climate RE blacks and all the issues they deal with in america.
if it sounded like i was saying it was justified, then my fault. i wasn't trying to say that. mainly i was just trying to say that i feel no remorse for what's happened, and that we live in a world where we have to be cautious with this type of stuff. you bring up a valid comparison in regards to what goes on here, but like i mentioned we have to consider the context of who our peers are. i'm assuming you guys are all older, more or less mature adults who have come to a forum like this for some camaraderie over football talk. this girl sent something on snapchat to somebody who was probably another young, immature, stupid person as well (who very well could have been somewhat of a 'stranger' to her), and young kids have a tendency of doing stupid excrement. should the 'friend' get a lot of blame and be labeled a shitty friend? of course, but i would also wager that when that person spread this image on the net, even they didn't expect and/or wouldn't be able to fathom that it could have THIS MUCH of a negative effect on the girl, because immature kids dont think about that stuff. it may not have been a true 'friend' at all, all you need to do to add somebody on snapchat is to have your number in your contacts, and college is a period of time where loads of people you aren't very close to whatsoever end up having your number through one circumstance or another - it may have been someone she wasn't super close to who did not care what ended up to her as a result of all this. in theory what happened with her could very well happen with anybody here, and in either case the punishment WOULD NOT be justified. given that, i would still claim that in each respective situation, one would have to be more careful on snapchat than they would a place like here, when considering who we're sending our messages, snaps, posts, and thoughts to. anyhow, none of this should have happened, a needless joke like that shouldn't have been made like that in the first place.
one of the worst things about all of this is that i still don't think it'll teach kids of how careful they have to be on apps like snapchat

in regards to the subway video...if you guys saw something like that happening, would you have said anything to try and stop the woman? or would you have laid back and just let things unfold, while possibly recording the event on your phone?
I interject into situations like that probably more often than I should. Depends whether the person is bullying the other person and whether the person being bullied seems nice to begin with or not. Also depends on my own mood and whether I feel like it's worth the trouble. If they're creating an inconvenience for everyone else, I will absolutely say something. And usually once one person stands up, other people get brave and support you. I have my own crazy meter and usually it'll be enough to get the other person to calm down and stop behaving that way. People don't like to be publically shamed and if someone (besides the employees) says something, nine times out of ten they'll tuck their tail in between their legs and leave. Maybe a short outburst before they do.
That said, this is probably a situation I wouldn't have said anything because I don't know if what she said was true. She might be right in principle regardless of her disproportionate response, and that'd make me less inclined to butt in. Maybe a "so why do you keep coming here?", but nothing hostile.

I normally don't get involved in these situations (unless drunk or it gets physical) but I'm surprised that after a minute or two of it someone didn't tell her to freak off already. I guess the entertainment value was too good.

I was on a Southwest flight going to a tailgate four years ago. Some queynte drunk off her derriere was in between two executives. This queynte spent half the flight verbally abusing the two of them and speaking like a trash mouth whore. I just couldn't take it any longer. I turned around and shook both of their hands, and said I can't believe the class and restraint the both of you have showed. She tried that excrement with me, I shut that queynte down in two seconds flat, the rows in the immediate vicinity all clapped.
I wish If can remember what I said, it was funny and put the queynte in her place big-time.
To this day I couldn't believe how disgusting that queynte was it was amazing really.

So I think it was the tension that was released it wasn't like a standing ovation, more like a thank god thing. Anyway, I told the crew and never heard a thing thereafter, I should have did that first, I was just so incredibly frustrated listening to that queynte.

When the N train goes into the tunnel after 59th street, he comes back in, but this time starts kicking people's feet, and went up to some old Asian lady and started screaming in her face. I said freak this excrement, the dude is like 6'2" and weighs 150lbs soaking wet, I can handle him. Of course, he's nuts so he could've had a knife or something, and lord knows what else he could've done. Everyone just sat there taking it. I put the book in my bag and stood up and slowly approached him towards the middle of the car.
I walked up to him with this thousand yard stare, and he looks at me, points, and starts screaming and backing up. Suddenly two other guys back me up (of course waiting for someone to make the first move). We slowly walked forward making sure he backed up towards the other side of the car, which was the first one so there was no escape. Didn't want to corner the rat, so we just stood there making sure he didn't bother anyone else by the time we got to Queensboro plaza. Once we got there and the doors opened, I told him to get the freak out and pointed at the door.
Then some chick by the door notices a tag around his neck, and says "Wait - this man is autistic. We should call his father." I said "Go ahead, but he's getting the freak off this train." I moved forward again and he ran out onto the platform screaming.
The guys who backed me up sat back down and started feeling bad "Oh, I didn't know he was autistic!" And other people started feeling sorry for him. I was like "He was a grown man kicking people and how the hell would we know if he was autistic?" Most people were on my side, but the other guys said they felt bad for "scaring" him. freak that nonsense.

Quote
A University of Wisconsin-La Crosse student had a serious complaint for his campus’ official “Hate Response Team”: he was “very upset” by a Harry Potter mural in a college dorm.
The mural, in the Laux Residence Hall, depicts Neville Longbottom, a character from the Harry Potter films. The nerdy Neville was played by actor Matthew Lewis, who blossomed into a notable hunk post-puberty. The mural shows him as both a geeky boy and an attractive young man — transformed, according to the mural’s caption, by a stay at the Laux Residence Hall itself.
The depiction of this metamorphosis “represents our ideal society and everything I am trying to fight against,” wrote the offended student, whose name is redacted. “It represents white power. Man power. Cis power. Able power. Class power. ECT [sic] ect. I am angry that I know the people who put this mural up, and I am anger [sic] because I know the people who let this mural be put up. Like I said earlier, maybe I am being a little sensitive, but it is how I feel. This represents, to me, our society, and I do not want it up on this wall. Why do we need a BEFORE and AFTER?”
ABLE POWER!!!!!1!

Speaking of situations where no one wanted to intervene, I was on the subway last week on my way home. There was some crazy black dude in our car just pacing back and forth and screaming as if he was watching a horror movie. People ignored it, and he moved into the next car. We all breathed a sigh of relief and rolled our eyes at each other.

I was in NYC a few weeks ago on a packed subway. Train stops and a woman with a hijab (not sure if that's the correct term, it was a head garment that covered her head but not her face) and and older black guy get on. He yells at full volume "Look out, a MUSLIM with a backpack getting on the subway! A MUSLIM! With a BACKPACK!" Everyone pretty much ignores him but you can tell this woman is thoroughly embarrassed, self-conscious, and now nervous for her safety. She doesn't take her eyes off the floor. Then this guys starts reciting bible verses, loudly. No one pays him any attention and then he notices me. Asks me a couple random questions I give 1 word answers too and then says "You look familiar. Are you a lawyer? Did you go to Georgetown?" I tell him no and he informs me it's never too late to go back to school. He lets me know he's a pastor a local church and where I can locate him and then goes back to reciting bible verses. He gets off at the next stop but not before yelling "Vote for Hillary, y'all! We need her!"

I watched all 11 minutes of that the other day and on balance wish I hadn't bothered. I'm sure she has a good heart and means well, but she's obviously extremely naive and sheltered.

Who, the stewardess? It's possible she's all of those things, but I find it hard to believe that any member of aircrew would say something like "oh no sweetie put ur hand down, we are looking for actual physicians or nurses or some type of medical personnel, we don't have time to talk to you" when faced with a self-identified physician during a medical emergency onboard.
As for credentials, I would imagine it's fairly normal to ask a doctor to present a copy of their medical license before allowing them to treat someone in such a situation. The liability an airline would face if they allowed some half drunk schmuck claiming to be a doctor to attend to an actual medical scenario doesn't bear thinking about. Perhaps someone versed in the law as it pertains to airlines might be able to cast more light on that as I'm guessing.

As ever, you need to view such publications in the context of their source. Mises is a hardline libertarian/capitalist institute that is no less biased or jaundiced in its views than people who believe there should be federal laws controlling the price of dry cleaning and haircuts.
As with most things, the sensible course probably lies somewhere between the two.

What's the problem with that article exactly?
I have a massive issue with the whole idea of "if it's legal then it's moral". There's a huge gap between where legal ends and moral starts, and the idea that free markets would somehow fill that gap if legislation were just relaxed or removed is utterly perverse. Rationality and morality are not synonymous, and in fact they're sometimes diametrically opposed.
Daraprim used to cost something like $14 a pop, and he jacked it up to $600. Contrary to what the article says, the FDA doesn't ban its importation - like all drugs, they require all companies who manufacture and supply it to gain their regulatory approval prior to granting a licence to import it. That's so that you know that when you go and get your pills you're not ingesting a mix of cement dust, lactose and ketamine. At $14 a go, the market wasn't big enough for foreign manufacturers to justify getting their version of it certified by the FDA and then competing with Daraprim. Shkreli took advantage of sound legislation designed to protect you in order to line his products, and suggesting that legislation is to blame here is ridiculous.
The fact that Shkreli was able to pull the excrement that he did was not caused by legislation, it was caused by him being a queynte. Usually corporations are kept in check by public perception, but in this case he's a borderline sociopath who seems to get off on being reviled. Blaming legislation for giving him the latitude to be a queynte and then arguing that the way to prevent him being a queynte is to remove legislation is a bizarre attitude.

Speaking of feminists. My coworkers tricked me into going to a Happy Hour fundraiser yesterday for the Ms. Foundation, a feminist organization. Was caught off-guard so had to shut my mouth and donate and excrement. Just to freak with them, I told one of the organizers that "I'm actually pro-Life but against the battering of women thing". Loved the look on the organizer's face when she was like "Uh, oh, uh, okay, great." Needless to say the talent level was exactly as you would expect. But, hey, some free drinks and a free Feminist Coffee Mug.

I don't know if this is a parody or not - I suspect not - but we probably shouldn't laugh at those on the extreme edges of society. This excrement is clearly delusional, like any other extreme e.g. the belief that the world is flat, the belief that Jesus is coming in a spaceship to rescue his followers or the belief that people with different coloured skin are inferior. They're all products of a fairly unhealthy mind, I think.

feminism is an insane economic industry and powerhouse nowadays. feminism is rife with this sort of idiocy and the problem is that you can't even have a civilized discussion with its proponents. anything you may bring up to show how illogical they are is responded with either 'you can't say anything because you're a man and not allowed to have an opinion on this', or, if it's a girl, 'you just have a lot of internalized misogyny that you have yet to realize or deal with'.
feminism actually means that males OR females aren't allowed to have an opinion unless you tote what they believe their company line to be, and in their mind feminism is uniform and monolithic.

I've had enough of this page. I’m done. You are going to be reported, blocked, and screenshots of your cishet ableism have been posted to Tumblr.
I can’t be genderfluid because it’s not within the realm of your possibilities? Deep throat a butcher knife. I have been genderfluid for as long as I can remember, some days I wear dresses and others combat boots. I’m Savanah some days, and on others I’m Link, and then on some days I’m neither. You guys need to grow the freak up and realize there are different people in the world who live different lives than you.
Now let me get started on your bullfuckery of denying Otherkin. Do you know how much of a bigot you sound like? You can’t tell what other people’s souls are!! Since the day I was born I loved bullhead catfish. My dad would take me fishing for them and we would catch and release them. I realized that the respect my father and I had for those fish was more than that. It was kinship. We didn’t kill them or eat them because they were our brethren (my dad hasn’t realized he’s otherkin yet, but I’m going to tell him on his birthday this year). Every day I have past life regression where I fill up the bathtub and paint my whiskers on and lazily swim about whilst having flashbacks to when I lived with my catfish mom and all my siblings. I remember her getting caught and taken from us and my siblings and I having to swarm together to fend for ourselves. If you’re going to tell me I don’t actually have a catfish soul in me, you are a freaking imbecile. I have these memories, these things really happened. I’m one with the rivers and the current and life. I am a bullhead catfish. You need to check your privileges and realize you’re lucky to have a soul that fits your physical state and quit making fun of the less fortunate. I hope you get hit by a car, cis scum.

The moment that privilege discussion crosses the line from "you should consider that not everyone had the same advantages as you did" into "you were born with inherent flaws that you need to spend your life atoning for" it no longer becomes a productive conversation.
I've progressed in my life to the point where I wholeheartedly agree with the first. Now some people feel that's not enough, which pisses me off. I sort of envy homogenous societies where race and ethnic backgrounds are never used as an excuse or called a "privilege". My father and his two older brothers grew up in the same environment, but only he had the ambition and wherewithal to seek a better life in America and fight for it. He had every right to criticize his brothers for taking the shortcut and not doing a damn thing and remaining poor.

The government of Saudi Arabia is a regional ally of ours, and its pretty stable. The ones on the list aren't allies, and their governments are far from stable. There's a big difference, and it isn't hypocrisy.
Quote
In December 2015, President Obama signed into law a measure placing limited restrictions on certain travelers who had visited Iran, Iraq, Sudan, or Syria on or after March 1, 2011. Two months later, the Obama administration added Libya, Somalia, and Yemen to the list, in what it called an effort to address "the growing threat from foreign terrorist fighters."
If you're going to call Trump a hypocrite, may as well add Obama to that list, as he didn't seem fit to add Saudi Arabia to his list either.

It's not about a particular list of nations - it's about blanket bans on residents of countries. There are people from each of those countries who should safely be considered allies and valuable guests in the US - just like there are people from Saudi Arabia who ought to be considered dangerous.
Blanket bans are inefficient because they ignore nuanced diplomatic situations.

You're forgetting the entire point of the temporary ban - the fact that it's temporary. These countries are filled with extremists and completely unstable. What's wrong with the new people in charge of Homeland Security wanting to review the vetting process, and in the meantime suspending the issuance of visas to visitors from countries like those? Nothing.

I work with a few Somalis - I'm friends with a few more. In one case, this travel ban would have ensured that the father of a coworker of mine would have had to have heart surgery in an African hospital rather than an American hospital because he was a Somali national.
Somalis make up a large part of the backbone of multiple industries and towns in my state these days - they have been some of my best coworkers and some of my fiancee's best students when she taught in an elementary school. From my anecdotal perspective, this travel ban - no matter how temporary - helps to break apart families; cultivate fear among immigrants and children of immigrants; encourages smart, hard-working immigrants to look for life elsewhere rather than contribute to this country's economy; and encourages distrust bordering on hate toward our government from immigrants who used to support our government with pride.
I gather your father, like mine, was an immigrant. I have always been reassured that I could safely travel back and forth between Japan and America at ease, and that my family in Japan could visit here in cases of family emergency - a liberty that they have taken advantage of several times during trying moments for my family.
I can't imagine living happily in a nation that had temporarily banned my family in Japan from visiting here, and I find it pretty tragic talking to Somali kids fresh out of high school who are working full-time jobs to fund their college education that they are trying to find other countries to move to.
If you want a country that is more homogenous and with fewer immigrants who are working to pull themselves into our middle class - this travel ban should help accomplish that.
If you want a country that is safer - this travel ban furthers dissent and hate toward our government, while 'reviewing' a policy that had a 100% success rate keeping terror attacks away from our borders.
If you want a country where immigrants have opportunities to build lives for themselves and their families - this travel ban actively discourages many of those who have the most to work for.

I work with a few Somalis - I'm friends with a few more. In one case, this travel ban would have ensured that the father of a coworker of mine would have had to have heart surgery in an African hospital rather than an American hospital because he was a Somali national.
Somalis make up a large part of the backbone of multiple industries and towns in my state these days - they have been some of my best coworkers and some of my fiancee's best students when she taught in an elementary school. From my anecdotal perspective, this travel ban - no matter how temporary - helps to break apart families; cultivate fear among immigrants and children of immigrants; encourages smart, hard-working immigrants to look for life elsewhere rather than contribute to this country's economy; and encourages distrust bordering on hate toward our government from immigrants who used to support our government with pride.
I gather your father, like mine, was an immigrant. I have always been reassured that I could safely travel back and forth between Japan and America at ease, and that my family in Japan could visit here in cases of family emergency - a liberty that they have taken advantage of several times during trying moments for my family.
I can't imagine living happily in a nation that had temporarily banned my family in Japan from visiting here, and I find it pretty tragic talking to Somali kids fresh out of high school who are working full-time jobs to fund their college education that they are trying to find other countries to move to.
If you want a country that is more homogenous and with fewer immigrants who are working to pull themselves into our middle class - this travel ban should help accomplish that.
If you want a country that is safer - this travel ban furthers dissent and hate toward our government, while 'reviewing' a policy that had a 100% success rate keeping terror attacks away from our borders.
If you want a country where immigrants have opportunities to build lives for themselves and their families - this travel ban actively discourages many of those who have the most to work for.
I totally get what you're saying, but you're really missing the point here and building a nice straw-man to set on fire. This ban is temporary and affects 6 countries out of the other 194 countries outside of the United States. That's 3% of the countries in the world. That's not shutting the borders. That's just being cautious.

Way to change the subject. You sensationalized Trump inviting the crown prince of SA to the White House as "you can't make this excrement up!" Yet Obama considered SA an ally and even visited and bowed to their king.Thankfully ons has reading comprehension skills and further explained my point already.
And it's not a fuckn' "Muslim Ban", you shill.
Enough with the name calling. I could care less, because I dont take it personally, but it makes your failed attempts to defend every damn move that Trump makes sound completely juvenile.

I just don't see the point of typing out endless paragraphs addressed to a brick wall or other people that don't need convincing of your opinion anyway. By all means, keep at it. I'm not suggesting anyone stop. I just don't get it. A good chunk of the Trump thread stopped being "conversation" long ago. Then again, my endless drivel probably gets ignored too.

The government of Saudi Arabia is a regional ally of ours, and its pretty stable.
...
the government of the kingdom of saudi arabia is abhorrent
the wahhabi/salafi ideology they preach and try to push onto the rest of the islamic world is directly responsible for the existence of groups like isis. not only that, the government of KSA and many wealthy saudis give money to fund isis and other groups like them
the one thing you have gotten right is that choosing to be an ally with KSA isn't a 'trump thing', it's a very american thing in general, nobody should get a pass.
that being said, it doesn't change the fact that in this thread you've displayed you'll stop at no lengths when it comes to pulling incorrect statements out of your derriere in a ceaseless endeavor of defending trump

The reason I brought up anecdotal experiences is to show you how and why temporary policies have permanent legacies and effects. Speaking of strawmen, though, you are the one saying "shutting the borders", a phrase that I would obviously not use because it is obviously not what I was talking about.

They were ten years old......
The point is that the parents obtained the tickets. It was their responsibility to ensure that the girls were dressed according to the clearly stated dress code. Having said that, I'm not aware that the parents have even complained - it was some other passenger who saw a couple of ten year old girls getting bounced from a flight for wearing leggings and decided to express their outrage through Twitter.

The point is, they had massively discounted tickets that are only for use by staff and their friends and family. The clearly stated terms and conditions of such tickets are that by using them you are representing United Airlines, and expected to adhere to their strict dress code regardless of your age. Shame on whoever got them the tickets for not making that clear, but the airline is not at fault here.

That seems to be United's stance on the issue. Not even that they're made aware at the time of purchase, but that all employees should be aware of the policy right from the start.
I just wonder if this was a situation where the kids were visiting someone without the parents (say, grandma) and they weren't aware of the policy. Still, it doesn't absolve the ticketholders of the responsibility. The parents should have made it very clear what the policy was to whoever was the caretaker at the time. And if it was the parents that put them on the flight, they messed up.

http://jezebel.com/columbia-university-settles-with-accused-rapist-who-spu-1796950029
"For those of you who haven't followed this case, a female art major named Emma Sulkowicz at the University of Columbia accused fellow student Paul Nungesser of rape a few years ago. Emma filed a rape claim with the police around a year after the alleged incident took place, claiming that Paul violently pinned her down during otherwise-consensual sex and anally penetrated her.
Emma decided not to pursue justice through the legal system, but rather through a Title IX campus tribunal composed of Columbia faculty. After convincing two other female acquaintances of Paul to join her in accusing him (one accused him of trying to kiss her at a party, the other said he was too rough while they were having consenual sex), Emma made her case to the tribunal.
Unfortunately for her, Emma's case collapsed after Paul's lawyer revealed texts she had sent him a few days after the alleged rape. In these texts, Emma begged Paul to "freak (her) in the butt," told him that she loves him, and told him they needed to have a "Paul-Emma chill sesh" sometime soon. After these messages were revealed, the other 2 accusers withdrew their allegations. Despite using a much-looser "preponderance of evidence" requirement for a conviction instead of the "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard used in real courts, the tribunal found Paul innocent of wrongdoing. In response, Emma created an "art project" (read: harassment campaign) directed at Paul, in which she brought her accusation into the court of public opinion and carried a mattress around campus for several months. She vowed that she would continue carrying the mattress with her everywhere she went until either she graduated or Paul was expelled.
Despite being specifically told not to, Emma carried her mattress up on stage at graduation amidst a storm of raucous applause from fellow students. For this brave, heroic act, Sulkowicz received a "Medal of Courage" from N.O.W., the largest feminist organization in the US. Her professor counted the whole mattress stunt as her Art final, giving her an A. She was also praised as a hero by local state representative Kirsten Gillibrand and invited to a prestigious political event.
In the years since her graduation, Emma has gone on to do some very interesting things. She created a pornographic "reenactment" of her rape involving full penetration. The video includes a foreword that states that you are participating in her "rape" if you watch it, and also questions why evidence should be required for rape claims. More recently, she "performed" another "art" piece involving being publicly tied up BDSM-style in a bikini, with pink-dyed armpit and pubic hair, and being beated and whipped in front of a crowd. Anyways, that's the Mattress Girl story. Now on to the article that's the focus of this post. A couple days ago, Paul won a large settlement in a long-running lawsuit against Columbia in which he claimed they had actively encouraged Emma's harassment campaign against him by giving her college credit and allowing her to carry her mattress up on stage at graduation. In response to a Buzzfeed article about this, thousands of women have had a major facebook freakout and continued vigorously defending Emma despite her incredibly strange behavior and the inconsistencies in her story."

Depends which brand you mean, the people upset that he wrote it or the people upset that he got fired for it. They're as bad as each other, IMO - it was a reasonably well written and argued document even if you disagree with some of its premises (I do, but I respect his views and the way he presented them), but he's really quite dumb if he thinks that corporate policy is a matter of public debate or even worse, open to direct challenge by employees. Posting it on an internal forum for all to see was a monumentally stupid thing to do; Google is a private enterprise like any other, in which policy is determined and dictated from the top, and enforced by HR.

It's the former. No one bothered to read it or even skim through it, so the networks just grabbed their pitchforks. Of course, it was stupid of him to post it and not expect to get fired, unless he knew what was going to happen and just wanted to get his point across.

“A professor of religious studies at Michigan State University recently argued that white people who practice yoga are guilty of enjoying a “system of power, privilege, and oppression.”
To truly honor yoga, writes Michigan State University professor Shreena Gandhi, white Americans should understand its history, acknowledge the cultural appropriation they engage in, and possibly reduce the cost of yoga classes for poor people, a group that often includes people of color and “recent immigrants, such as Indian women to whom this practice rightfully belongs.”
Gandhi, in an article she recently co-authored, argued yoga as it’s practiced in America today is an extension of white supremacy and the “yoga industrial complex.”

LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Peter Rabbit” filmmakers and the studio behind it are apologizing for insensitively depicting a character’s allergy in the film that has prompted backlash online.
Sony Pictures says Sunday in a joint statement with the filmmakers that “food allergies and are a serious issue” and the film “should not have made light” of a character being allergic to blackberries “even in a cartoonish, slapstick way.”
In “Peter Rabbit” which was released this weekend, the character of Mr. McGregor is allergic to blackberries. The rabbits fling the fruit at him in a scene and he is forced to use an EpiPen.

It is the cosmopolitan D.C. crowd’s version of a riot: a horde of young men and women descending Sunday morning onto hundreds of barely differentiated joints to swallow down the same bottomless mimosas and “small plates” fashioned from the week’s leftovers.
It is known as “brunch,” but the refined flavor of that word no longer reflects what it has become. Today it’s about extending the party. Brunch food is hangover food, and brunch is the finale of the quasi-religious weekend trifecta: bar crawl, Tinder hook-up, hungover brunch and hair-of-the-dog Bloody Marys with well vodka.
Of course restaurants don’t advertise it this way. But brunch in D.C. has evolved to be little more than a way for the young urban elite (today’s yuppies) to make their messy weekends look neat, drunkenness hip, and materialistic desires something other than hedonistic. It is a peculiarly coarse, even uncivilized ritual, cloaked in the respectability of Sunday morning.
Brunch has replaced Sunday worship. The bottomless mimosa is the blood of Christ.

EAST HANOVER, N.J. - A school in East Hanover, New Jersey has passed a new rule when it comes to the cheerleading squad.
Either everyone makes the squad, or no one does.
This all started after tryouts at Hanover Park High School, where some cuts were made.
When a parent complained that their child was not allowed on the team, the Athletic Director changed the policy.
Now, anyone who wants to cheer can be on the squad.
The rule is being met with mixed reaction, and strong emotions from students who don't agree.
"I tried my hardest. Now everything is going away because of one child who did not make the team, and their parent complained, so now all my hard work has been thrown out the window," student Stephanie Krueger says.
Some parents say when they complained the principal then threatened to disband the squad altogether.
The school is standing by the decision to allow everyone interested to participate, with the goal of being inclusive.

He was slow and out of shape, couldn't dribble, and couldn't shoot. He had no business playing pickup in a YMCA let alone high school basketball.
His dad brought him to every practice and sat in the stands with him as they heckled the players that made the team. WE TALKIN' BOUT PRACTICE. NOT A GAME. PRACTICE!
Our athletic director was a huge hoo-ha and instead of just asking that guy to leave, he just suggested that we let the kid on the team. And by suggested, I mean we were told he had to be on the team because this passive aggressive clown didn't want to deal with it.
He quit after two practices because it was too hard. Let everybody on the team though.

Read his Facebook post about what happened before the confrontation. From his biased perspective, doesn't paint him as a goodie two shoes exactly. He was clearly trying to start excrement by trying to draw the dog over to him - he could have just called over a cop/security guard/whatever to deal with it instead.
She, of course, was choking the dog and the 911 call was really bad, but he's not super innocent about it either. A male Karen if you will.
I do feel like there's a bit of a subtext of "hey, I'm going to poison your dog now."
I thought it was a pretty weird way to deal with entitled cunts, but entitled cunts, they gotta be dealt with. I applaud this man for finding an out-of-the-box solution.

Does it ever get tiring being this self-righteous?So just to be clear here, you believe that he is to some degree culpable for her actions as a result of a) asking her to put her dog on a leash in an on leash area, b) giving her dog a treat, and c) filming her reaction?
He could have handled it better. I don't give a excrement if he raises nursing unicorns in his spare time

Jumbo is correct, there's a little implication there in the respect the guy was yanking her chain a bit and messing with her dog probably what I would do to bother a queynte like that. Does that mean he's on that cunts side? No, he's not but he's also correct that the self righteousness here is immense at times.
Let's be super clear on this one. There is not a single shred of this situation that says "well he kinda brought that on a bit himself" and saying that is not being self righteous, that's calling out bullshit. If you or Jumbo can provide any kind of reasoned argument to that I'd be interested to hear it.

Maybe the police should drug test him and when the results come back then I can decide whether or not he deserved the chance to get shot by a Staten Islander with a Punisher skull forearm tat.
Hahahahahahahahahaha. When you're right, you're right.
Surprised fat Peter King hasn't taken to the airwaves to say that the hold she was applying on the dog wasn't a choke.

Saying "I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it" and then trying to bring her dog over with a treat.
You're going to have to refer me back to where I said "therefore, he deserved to be shot by the cops 10 times!" though.
I didn't even say he brought it on himself, because his actions in no way justified hers. Sorry it's more grey than you're giving it credit for

Unless I'm missing something here, she was off leash with a dog that she obviously couldn't control in an area where a) off leash is expressly not permitted and b) the dog being off leash was directly detrimental to the perfectly legitimate reason that he was there. He asked her to put the dog on leash, she refused, he offered the dog a treat, she reacted by.... calling the police because an African-American man was threatening her life?
Do you have a dog? I'm curious because I can see this entirely from a dog owner's perspective (albeit not one as clearly excrement at it as she is). I have walked my dog off leash in on leash areas and still do on occasion; he has excellent recall and control, but I'm still hyper conscious at all times when doing it because in a public area where there could be kids or people with allergies or just plain don't like dogs, I know I'm in the wrong. If someone were to ask me to put my dog on leash in such an area, I would do it without a second thought. If someone were to go straight to offering my dog a treat in such a situation (which isn't what happened) I would find it weird and possibly even slightly threatening, but my reaction would be to put the dog back on his leash... which is exactly the outcome that was intended.
Basically, everything that happened up to her insane reaction was a direct result of her entitled behaviour, so again... freak him why?
P.S. She cares so much about her dog that she immediately surrendered it to a rescue.
Post by: d sw0rdz on May 27, 2020, 12:11:57 PM
also, the fact that that poor dog has required medical attention that many times and she has used it to gain social media attention every time is a huge fckin red flag
amazing how devilish tendencies can appear as clear as day even in a very short video clip
Post by: Heismanberg on May 27, 2020, 12:14:17 PM
her ability to emotionally and frantically gasp 'hurry, an african-american man is attacking me' on cue over and over with her voice cracking at times is horrifying.

The dog is back at a shelter? What the freak, where's the social media campaign to ensure this little guy gets adopted by a non-psycho?
Dunno. I haven't seen the details but I suspect and hope that the shelter from which she adopted it saw the video, and invoked the clause that most have in their contracts allowing them to cancel the adoption if they believe that the animal is being mistreated. All it said on their FB account was that the dog had been "voluntarily surrendered" to them.

The idea that To Kill A Mockingbird promotes racism tells me that these people have never actually read it. Part of the problem with modern ignorance is that not enough people have read Lee and Steinbeck, not the other way around.

Carmenita Helligar said her daughter, Destiny, was approached by a white student in math class using a racial taunt including the N-word, which he'd learned from reading Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry while both attended the David Starr Jordan Middle School.
"My family used to own your family and now I want a dollar from each of you for the week," another boy is said to have told Destiny.
Helligar, who is one of the parents who filed a complaint in the case, claimed the boy's excuse was that he had read it in class and the principal had been dismissive of the incident.

Nadra Ostrom, another Black parent who filed a complaint, argued that the portrayal of Black people is mostly from a white perspective.
"There's no counter-narrative to this Black person dealing with racism and a white person saving them," she said.
Ostrom added that the current education given to students assumes "that racism is something in the past."
I think a lot of people shut down and have a knee-jerk reaction because this story is packaged as a "book ban" but the books aren't going anywhere, these parents are just asking for some other books to be in the curriculum instead. Increasing the amount of black authorship in the books being taught is a good thing, as is freshening up the selection that's been trotted out for the last several decades.

It reads less like a ban and more like a mandate to update the curriculum which I support. I didn’t see it in the article but I doubt they’re pulling the novels from the libraries.

This is entirely reasonable.

Increasing the amount of black authorship in the books being taught is a good thing, as is freshening up the selection that's been trotted out for the last several decades.
Except that the argument was that To Kill A Mockingbird shouldn't be taught because it encouraged white kids to say "person of color". I don't see a big movement to prevent white kids listening to Lil Wayne or Drake or Snoop Dogg. To try and paint TKAM as some kind of white saviour text is not only disingenuous, it's also not right. And FFS, Steinbeck? I'm biased because he's one of my favourite writers, but how is Steinbeck anything except a champion of the working class and downtrodden regardless of race?

I'm not going to argue about Huckleberry Finn. I'm not offended by it and nor do I think others need to be, but I also don't think it has the value that Lee and Steinbeck's works do.

Except that the argument was that To Kill A Mockingbird shouldn't be taught because it encouraged white kids to say "person of color". I don't see a big movement to prevent white kids listening to Lil Wayne or Drake or Snoop Dogg. To try and paint TKAM as some kind of white saviour text is not only disingenuous, it's also not right. And FFS, Steinbeck? I'm biased because he's one of my favourite writers, but how is Steinbeck anything except a champion of the working class and downtrodden regardless of race? Have these people actually read these books?God forbid the children don't learn the sacred texts at school

Extremely dramatic to compare a suggested curriculum change to book banning.
Curriculum changes are fine. Curriculum changes to remove important classics because they contain bad words are stupid, especially when the context and relevance of those words are being ignored.
If there is a problem it's that the teachers are failing to help the students properly understand the books.

Citing JE's original link (below) the story's headline expressly used the word 'banned' followed by the words "Schools in Burbank will no longer be able to teach a handful of classic novels" in its very first sentence. I'm not trying to provoke a picayune semantics debate but instead raise the issue of arbitrary abridgment. They pull "Heather Has Two Mommies" from the shelves, rest assured I'll have a problem with that as well. ; )

No.It does suck to watch people who participated in the primary smearing of Bernie partake in the fun. As always I have a scaled level of contempt for how influential/powerful someone is and how much they contributed to shaping the primary outcome. So obviously it applies more to people with bigger platforms who were cold on Bernie when it mattered than it does to rank and file voters. But the latter group should still absolutely feel bad about themselves.

He was the one that got punched in the face to kick things off.
I don't know why that's always the go-to defense. This tourist is Charleston got killed because he was supposedly de-escalating a fight between his friends and some drunk dudes. It went to trial, two different guys got locked up for a couple weeks for manslaughter. Turns out he was the one talking the most excrement. He took a haymaker to the face and hit his head on the curb, cracking his skull. Senseless, but he was being a piece of excrement to the wrong people.

Too Woke Guy says most racist thing I've read in some time.
What could possibly be considered racist about the suggestion that any interracial relationship is simply a product of the white male power imbalance, and that any woman of colour marrying a white man is simply doing so because of the inherent inferiority forced upon her by society rather than such an esoteric and impossible motivation as love and agency? Honestly, it's like you never studied the liberal sciences. Shame on you.
FWIW, I am a big fan of Bill Burr but I don't think he's the right choice for a massive awards ceremony. I think that there is, and should be, a degree of social polishing to such events, especially from the presenters who are supposed to be making the event run smoothly, not the main story. Burr has no filter and it's one of the things that makes him so fun, but there's a time and place for his brand of comedy and I don't think that was it.

The fact that she refers to people who are not in the same industry as her as "civilians" is an instant dismissal from me. Also, I had to google PAWG. I have no idea whether it's racist and I'm trying to find a reason why I should care. I imagine that white men who hire black hookers are racist because they are indulging their power complex and white men don't hire black hookers are racists for preferring white hookers. Personally I wouldn't hire her because she has a really ugly nose ring and she seems very irritating.

Quote
A New York-based psychiatrist who was invited by Yale University to give a talk titled Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind told the audience that she had fantasized about 'unloading a revolver into the head of any white person' who got in her way.
Dr Aruna Khilanani, who runs her own practice in Manhattan, delivered the talk virtually to medical students and faculty back in April after being invited by Yale School of Medicine's Child Study Center.
Audio of her 50-minute lecture was published on journalist Bari Weiss' Substack blog on Friday.
Khilanani, who has previously taught at Cornell, Columbia and New York universities, made a series of stunning comments during her talk that was largely based on the psychology behind 'whiteness'.
Dr Aruna Khilanani, who is a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, delivered the talk virtually to Yale University medical students and faculty back in April
'I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a f**king favor,' Khilanani said during the talk.
She went on to say that white people feel they are being bullied when people of color bring up race and described it as a 'psychological predicament'.
'They feel that we should be thanking them for all that they have done for us. They are confused, and so are we. We keep forgetting that directly talking about race is a waste of our breath,' she said.
'We are asking a demented, violent predator who thinks that they are a saint or a superhero, to accept responsibility. It ain't gonna happen. They have five holes in their brain. It's like banging your head against a brick wall. It's just like sort of not a good idea.'
Khilanani also said speaking to white people about race was 'useless' because she says they are not at same level of conversation.
'Addressing racism assumes that white people can see and process what we are talking about. They can't. That's why they sound demented. They don't even know they have a mask on. White people think it's their actual face. We need to get to know the mask,' she said.

Honestly I was wondering the other week if gypsy moths were due for a name change, something more fitting might be "stupid nasty cunts killing the trees" or just cunts for short.
Motion seconded to rename gypsy moths as "stupid nasty cunts killing the trees"

Two fans filed a federal class action lawsuit on Friday alleging they were duped into renting the 2019 film “Yesterday” because Ana de Armas appeared in the trailer.
Conor Woulfe, 38, of Maryland, and Peter Michael Rosza, 44, of San Diego County, Calif., say they each paid $3.99 to rent the movie on Amazon Prime, only to discover that de Armas was removed from the final cut of the film.

If anyone is confused, she's referring to the multiple instances of media figures saying how weird it is to see (((regular))) people suffer from war instead of brown people from pooper countries. Which is something that definitely needs to be criticized, not magically blamed on Putin.

As an intellectual exercise it's got some merit, they're really just saying that right wing incels on 4chan and Stormfront look for meaning where it doesn't exist as a way of reinforcing their mental health issues. But they can freak off if they think I'm going to stop listening to Amon Amarth.

That's the thing though, they're arguing that it's problematic to enjoy something that's also enjoyed by problematic people. Despite the merits of the actual thing.

As a sports fan I have never been anything other than polite, well behaved and respectful of other people's property and person. This is because like all sports fans I am conscious not to let my emotions overrule my core values, and because all of us sports fans are completely impervious to any kind of herd mindset.
This is all definitely happening because these people are brown skinned and come from a place that isn't where I'm from.

I've never heard of that woman but she is apparently Dutch, a country legendary for producing some of the most prolific and effective hooligan firms. That footage looked like a quiet Friday night at the village pub compared to the absolute carnage that Feyenoord, Den Haag, Ajax have regularly produced over the years, and you would be hard pushed to find a single non-white face amongst those firms.

Every time he opens his mouth he proves further that he is the stupid man's idea of what a smart man is. Still, best not to give him the attention that is the only thing he actually craves, I think.

You shouldn't know who he is, but if you want to know, he reached notoriety by falsely claiming a then-new Canadian law meant he could be arrested for not using someone's preferred pronouns.Sounds like it..another ’the world according to me’ jerk
Since then he's been peddling various flavors of bullshit.

In which case we're in the same territory as the US's treatment of black people and the post-9/11 reaction to Muslims. Which begs the question why someone who purely focuses on injustice on the other side of the world (in certified Bad Guy countries) when vehemently denying it in their own backyard should be given credit for doing so?
I don't really have anything to add about the interior squabbles in parts of China besides a dismissive jerking motion.

Genocide: violent attacks with the specific intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.

I'm not sure if you're trying to paint me as "someone who purely focuses on injustice on the other side of the world (in certified Bad Guy countries) when vehemently denying it in their own backyard", or Enes Kanter. If the former then that's neither fair nor accurate, if the latter then I didn't give anyone credit - I posed the question because I primarily know him for his anti-Erdogan position, which is I think inarguably on the right side of things, and to a lesser extent his comments about Xi who is also fairly inarguably a Bad Guy. If Kanter holds domestic positions that are inconsistent with those views then I'm happy to be informed of such.
I'm not sure if your position on Xi is derived from a sympathy for his professed political leanings or a lack of interest in foreign affairs relative to domestic issues, but not attaching any strong feelings to his dictatorial regime doesn't make it any less evil.

I too remember when the US put hundreds of thousands of Muslims in internment (I mean "re-education") camps post-9/11. Do you really believe the US is "vehemently denying" historical mistreatment of black people at this juncture in time?
I'm not sure why lefties have to bring themselves to defend shithead governments just because the ruling party has the word Communist in the title but it never ceases to amaze. The treatment of the Uighurs isn't exactly an interior squabble; if the equivalent thing was happening in the US, you would surely love it if China was condemning us for it.
