Yeah Ryu I guess that's what I get for making a bunch of friends and having them on facebook, where opinions run rampant

And yeah DJ I'm over it now but it's just amazing how some people show how little a friendship means as soon as extreme beliefs get involved. It was probably for the best anyway.


In other news all this rain is totally kickass
there's an old saying

never discuss politics or religion

actually these days I think discussing them is more important than ever, but you have to be prepared for a potential backlash

That bitch is as stupid as she is crazy, and people like her are becoming more common every day.  I don't know where they're coming from, but hopefully someone will find the secret underground factory where people are being killed and replaced by these miserable creatures. and destroy it.  They are unable to cope with life, and are addicted to being unhappy and cunty, and they're incapable of optimism, compromise, or smiling.  Stay away from them, they're so fucking stupid and miserable that they're dangerous.
I think I'm going to save that quote
see the thing is it's sort of true in a way, white men in the west are highly privileged and in many cases are far from sufficiently aware of the fact

but if you aren't in that privileged group, getting all fucking militant about it will do no good whatsoever because nobody will listen to anything you have to say
it's not white men's fault they were born white men
you need some diplomatic skills in order to change anything, not completely cutting off the group of people you need to influence in order to get anything changed
Not impossible
just highly unlikely
Any progress is no progress unless it's total progress, apparently.

I totally disagree about the privilege crap. It comes from CRT, which was written during the civil rights era. It was meant to force white people into understanding some things, and it worked for the most part. It was never meant to be applied to today's racial climate, where blacks who once fought to get an education now idolize thugs and have the highest dropout rate in the country.  It's been revived by those creatures, distorted, and used for shit that it was never meant for. They love any weapon in their shitty arsenal that makes other people feel bad because that's exactly what makes them feel superior. It's sort of an extension to the race card, which is one of their choice weapons. Economic class is the great divider in the 21st century, not race, or sexual orientation, or gender, or age, or any other bullshit like that. The people who quote CRT are so miserable that they can't find enough shit in their own situation to be angry about, so they become angry ON BEHALF of other people.  It's fucking insane.

well, women do still earn less
I'm sympathetic to that but not if feminists are just going to act like it's my fault
Not impossible
just highly unlikely
It is your fault, you white hetero male American.

Wait... one of those isn't quite right.
well I'm pasty faced enough to count as white twice, so it's probably fair enough
Quote from DJGrenola:
well, women do still earn less


That has been debunked many times
well, maybe you're right, it's not something I've studied closely
The types I described above are experts at manipulating statistics to support their views.  They could never possibly account for the fact that women still work less and are less likely to choose many higher paying careers, because that might make it sound fair, and fairness is something to be happy about.
I want to live in a world where there is no need to have this kind of discussion
yeah, would be nice

Me too. Let's talk about Mario & Luigi Paper Jam, which comes out tomorrow.  It's supposed to be a combination of Paper Mario and the Mario & Luigi series.  Is anyone else getting it?

http://marioandluigipaperjam.nintendo.com/
I've got a big backlog, so probably not
oh it's 3DS, so no, I don't have one
whaaaa....?  No 3DS?!  We have to talk.
haha

idk I don't get on with handheld gaming that much, it wrecks my neck and you can't do it with other people, I've been much more into playing games with other people on the sofa
although most of the people I used to do that with have disappeared in recent times
