Actually, that is how lame goths are

What is your position on cyber goths?

I bet Yang isn't even down to sack Rome, what a ****ing poseur.

I read this post from some retired vet saying he wished his goth son would just hurry up and come out as gay already.

On Fareed GPS today two guests made a great case for doing away with time zones and putting the entire planet Greenwich Mean Time

It would make international travel and communication far easier

Airline pilots already do it.

He's right but I'd argue that bad parenting and a lack of mentorship outside of education are also massive factors.

There are certain career paths you can dive into where arguments about meritocracy do apply. You want to work on cars for a living, but then you flunk out of trade school because you just don't do due diligence, decide to smoke weed instead of showing up to learn, etc. etc. Individual choice does play into outcome in society at some level.

Good video.

Virtually every field is competitive based on merit to some degree

The reason that it's not so simple that people are neatly organized in a heirarchy based on merit is that we all have different hang ups and different starting circumstances.

I like being MB allies with you but it doesn’t seem like you actually understood what he was saying.

"To some degree" is doing a lot of legwork in that post.

I did understand it. He blatantly ignores the role of the family and other factors and tries to use public education as the sole point of argument. I just don't agree with his overall assessment as someone who jumped around multiple career paths before I got into technology.

The point that I do agree with him on is that public education needs to be re-tooled because a curriculum isn't geared around giving kids the right "starting point" (mentally or otherwise) to look at society and figure out how to embrace their passions effectively. Everything ultimately revolves around useless measuring sticks like the SAT instead of something more practical.

What tools.

No, not steampunk, cyber goth.

Yeah. I felt like ant’s comment was like I’m watching a football game and complaining that the QB can’t hit a fast ball.

Are you telling me Rob Zombie are Marilyn Manson aren't punk?

I’ll tell you that.

Marilyn Manson took some ribs out so he could suck his own dick. That's the very definition of punk.

I could definitely see the cyber goths listening to Boy Harsher on a dark wave night.

Cyber goths listen to aggrotech and really gimmicky electronic goth acts that sing about cyber punk nerdom.

You'd probably hate majority of their music. It's much more angry and formulaic than what it derives from and it's very very shallow and juvenile. Definitely lacks what you like from the culture and represents the cliches that you hate.



But it's sometimes really funny how goofy they can be.



LOL Satanic Nazi priests throwing a cocaine orgy.

I support Trump’s nuke a hurricane plan.

At least once, I mean, YES.

Reminds me of the Idiocracy movie but like the cool stuff they did

I mean how cool would it look? Real ****ing cool!

What do you think of him wanting to buy Greenland?

It actually makes my balls tingle.

Canada will be caught in a three way crossfire between the main country, Alaska, and Greenland. Victory will be assured.

Get em Bernie!

So Bernie's alternative to UBI is to work for the govt. Someone explain to me how Yang is not to the left of Bernie on this issue?

You don't necessarily forgo other govt assistance.. you just get that amount deducted from your UBI. Which isn't that unreasonable. If you're already getting 1000 a month in govt assistance you need more then something is wrong with that picture.

It would disproportionately help lower income people who are very unlikely to be paying 12k a year in vat taxes aimed at companies like Amazon, so even though everyone gets a check it is a direct redistribution of wealth

Where as Bernie's alternative is if you want to work for the govt you can? Weak.

jwb: real men live off beans and rubbing dirt on it

Batlord: real men live off the beans their mom made for them

i make my own beans. i only need her to work the can opener. those things are the ****ing devil.

They make electric ones now. That's automation slowly but surely replacing America's moms.

#yang4chairman

imma have to start digging her grave again. there's always some bull**** reason i give up on it but not this time.

:laughing:

Wouldn't be surprised if she's just a skeleton sitting in a chair upstairs, knowing you.

a sticky skeleton

And you only wear the wig whenever you have to hack open a can of beans.

*looks at thread title*

Sorry DWV. Yeah he's real ****in' sorry.

Where is the political discussions for children thread?

Chris Cuomo is a douche. Am i doing it right?

His name is Fredo now.

He did and I can’t get with that philosophically. It’s more of the same of the punitive approach to the poor. If you can’t just say yeah we’re going to top off your food stamps and whatever with a little spending money then I’m just not down with it. It’s called UNIVERSAL basic income why deny it to those who need it the most?

Totally uncool.
