>>17Did you study psychology or some other useless subject like that?
Nice bait, but no, I didn't study psychology. I chose something career-oriented. I think colleges need to restructure and become more like trade schools.
How on earth did you get female friends? What kind of sorcery are you using?
There's this thing called social media. You can also hang out with people. When you know people, you generally know what they think and what's going on in their life. That includes gossip about how they cheat, unplanned pregnancies, and things like that. In some cases, they themselves post this information.
But the point of SJWism is a form of collectivism. What you are saying here doesn't make much sense.
Not really. White SJWs are abandoning their race and instead focus on themselves. There isn't much of a cohesive SJW group because of all the in-fighting on the left. Besides, SJWs have this ``I'm not like the other white people'' mentality.
What is wrong with that? Many people are being taken advantage of by being paid wages barely enough to let them live.
Wow, okay. There isn't much point in replying to you if you're one of them. But I'll take the bait.
UBI is not sustainable. Here's how: with UBI, you need to drastically increase taxes, especially on the rich. Sounds good if you're some socialist fuck, but here's the thing: rich people will flee to other countries for tax havens. Ireland, Switzerland, or other places too. If you tax all the billionaires in the US, and try to drain them dry, do you honestly think they'll stay in the US? No, they will go elsewhere. Then you have a problem where people expect UBI but the government can't afford to keep paying it out. UBI would be a massive cost that wouldn't be sustainable in the long run, especially considering that it ACTIVELY DE-INCENTIVES WORK. Why would you work if you get free money? Additionally, consider that landlords might reject UBI-only people, and inflation and cost of living would increase. If UBI is $1,500/month, rent will be $2,000/month. More money, but no increase in housing. Have you ever stopped to consider these issues, or did you stop using your brain after the whole ``let's make everything free'' pipe dream?
What is wrong with helping someone in need for free? All of my favourite anime characters do that.
Now you're just trolling.
See, I don't even have healthcare at the moment. I will soon though, but it's not cheap. But you know what? I don't expect everyone else to pay for everything in my life. You'd have to increase taxation and you'd run into the issues I mentioned above. When I have something I need to pay for, my first instinct isn't to force the government to pay for it.
What is wrong with that? Who are you to dictate what I can put in my mouth?
I've known people who had drug problems. Weed, prescription drugs, hard illegal drugs, psychedelics, benzos, opiates, you name it. People who are pro-drug tend to be naive college types who have never seen the destruction drugs can cause. And you don't stop to consider how you're funding cartels, either. ``Oh, weed is perfectly harmless!'' except that it really is a gateway drug. I've known plenty of people who started with weed and got into harder shit, and some of them have completely ruined their lives as a result.
Did they stop you from having a 'traditional nuclear family'?
Media is trying to convince white people to not reproduce, to be openly gay or trans, to not get married, to race-mix, to welcome immigrants (and to fund their welfare, and to accept increased competition for jobs, etc). Women are taught that men are rapists and sexists. It's socially acceptable for the news to talk about how white males are evil, or why white women should date non-whites. I already mentioned information about the whole feminism and ``sexual liberation'' thing and how it has affected people I know. People who sleep around get knocked up and become single moms. Shocker! And guess what? Kids who grow up with only a single parent don't do that well. This is a downward spiral. There are serious consequences to promoting degeneracy, though you're probably not even going to listen to me. Your post mentioned anime, after all. You're just a troll.
You're delusional if you think there isn't an anti-white narrative. But then again, you think UBI is a good thing, so I think that's all I need to know about you.
Arbitrary morals of an older age instead of arbitrary morals of a modern age, how is this supposed to be better?
Arbitrary? How are morals arbitrary? Let me guess, you also think race is a social construct? Well, if race is a social construct, and thus doesn't exist, then I guess racism doesn't exist either. But liberals say racism is a problem... yet race doesn't exist? Hmmm...
What's wrong with nuclear families and stability? What's wrong with hard work? What's wrong with self-actualization and personal responsibility? What's wrong with restraint as opposed to indulgence? What's wrong with caring about your community as opposed to being a special snowflake who is only concentrated on oneself?
Me, me, me! Give me free money. Give me free healthcare. Give me free college. Give me drugs. I don't care about my family or my race. Also, sorry mom and dad, but I'm not having kids, even though the most fundamental purpose in life is to reproduce to keep life going on! I'm a non-binary trans asexual otherkin. Look up my pronouns on tumblr! Liberals could advocate for better job opportunities or upward mobility, but instead they want free handouts. Affirmative action is not a real solution to employment issues.
You sound like John Oliver. Is $CURRENT_YEAR your only argument? Things are clearly deteriorating in America. Lots of homelessness, drugs, mental illness, etc. If you think these things aren't on the rise, you must either be in a different country or you just live in a sheltered area. I don't want to dox myself but let's just say I don't live in the safest area. I see the devastation of these issues firsthand. Things are going down the shitter here. But instead of concentrating on actually trying to fix things, people have delusions about how the government will make everything free.
It's weird that liberals make fun of conservatives for ``economic anxiety'' (which, by the way, is a legitimate concern) and make fun of poor white people for having increased competition for low-level work because of mass immigration (which only benefits people who are in power and looking for workers -- it's not good for employees who don't make much as it is). It's weird that liberals pretend to be paragons of virtue who want to help poor people, but mass immigration hurts poor people who are already here. Technocrats will also fuck over poor people with automation. Most techies are liberal.
People in middle class or upper middle class areas, especially those in college who have never really left their safe spaces, don't see these issues. They assume that all white people are as successful as they are, and that's how they fall for the ``white privilege'' lie. Poverty is devastating for everyone, even white people. We should try to focus on bringing people out of poverty so they go from being miserable and a burden to being happy and productive.
Globalism hurts poor people. Increased taxation will lead to businesses and rich people moving to other countries, which will shoot you in the foot. There's a reason why billionaires aren't flocking to Australia to start their new tech startups. It's the taxes.
Additionally, people have this weird notion that wealth can only be distributed rather than created. If people invent things, or do more work, they are creating value. To think that you can only gain money by taking money from someone else makes no sense. Liberals are the kinds of people who want to be given a 9-to-5 job where they don't really have to think, and want all of their needs taken care of. They don't want to have to worry about how their business makes money, or how they could themselves become entrepreneurial and make their own money without taking orders from someone else. The way to solve issues in America is to focus on economic prosperity and job creation. And less immigration, because that does poor people no good. Billionaires benefit from H1B visa misues. Do you even know what that is, or the issues that surround it?
Have you ever seen a listing for an entry-level job with bullshit requirements? Odds are the company doesn't even WANT you to apply for it. They do shit like that to pretend that they are actively seeking domestic employees, but then they say they can't find any, so they NEED to get immigrants. Or sometimes they juts hire internally or have nepotism. The thing is: they are exploiting immigrants. It's not about diversity at all. They want cheap workers. People from third world countries will work for less money than people in the US. This also results in brain drain in the countries they're coming from. Have you ever wondered what it does to Mexico that lots of Mexicans are leaving? It certainly isn't helping. What about other countries, where people are lured by the thought of becoming wealthy in America, so they leave their country that paid for their upbringing and will never be able to recoup the taxes that paid for their education and whatnot?
Globalism benefits people who are already successful and is only going to make income inequality worse. It's completely devastating to third world countries.
I am a mixed race second generation American (but I ``pass'' as white) and I get called a racist or sexist if I point out this country's numerous issues. People often see me as white because they have this us vs. them mentality and have a hard time understanding that life isn't as simple as either being 100% A or B. My political views and ethnic background are a little more nuanced than that. But you know there's a problem when you're not even allowed to speak about the problems without people lashing out at you. I can't side with hardcore alt-righters because ``muh one drop rule'' but I'd never fit in with modern liberals because they're fucking insane. But liberals are the ones who are radicalizing the right. I have non-white friends and family, and up until recently, things were okay, but race relations are rapidly deteriorating. Liberals race-bait way too much.
But yeah, it's easier just to believe what news and social media says. This is a safe space! You're triggering me by making me use my brain! You're not allowed to challenge my preexisting liberal beliefs! Help!!!!
It's nice to condense worldviews down to tweet-sized soundbytes rather than exploring the more intricate details of these problems. You don't have to think as much if you just accept what people already tell you. Just listen to John Oliver, he'll tell you how to think. He knows what you should believe in. It's 2018, come on! Oh yeah, and Bernie Sanders? hey ``let's fight the 1%'' guy? He has multiple homes and millions of dollars. AND he has a cult following too. He's rich and egotistical, but liberals somehow think he's a man of the people, even though he's only said feel-good shit with no economic viability. Liberals are ruining this country.
Oh yeah, and pretty much all the worst cities in the US are run by democrats.
I have been trolled.
