The gender war needs to end. It’s childish and long overdue. In the same way we protect against misogyny we need to protect against misandry, and all can be better. -

Only one I read was the unabombers, but that one is an exception only because he was intellectually gifted. -
I’m saying if I was severely mentally impaired, I don’t see a problem with another creature, like a highly evolved lion, ethically putting me out of my misery and making good use of my body. Giving back to the world that gave me life is a proper gift to give. Only problem is it wouldn’t be a dignified way to go out and family would have a problem. But if that wasn’t the case, I don’t see an issue. This whole anti eating animals seems exaggerated to me.

I mean who would want a mother who is a porn star. Obviously that would threaten someone’s wellbeing. So using threaten as a word to shame someone as weak for wanting to live with dignity is odd use of language.

Is that a biological female? And is this a type of femcel rage? -
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavon_Affair Failed Israeli terrorist false flag operation. In 2005, Israel awarded the plotters certificates of appreciation.

At the entry level sure you might not get paid as much, but the more experience you get and the more complicated stuff you can do, the salary becomes a good one. I have two friends that get paid extremely well, one of them holds an important position with Respawn Entertainment for the Apex Legends game. There's nothing wrong with pursuing it if it's actually something you want to do.

Programming was fun for me.. until it became hard. Prior to taking computer science classes in highschool, I was creating websites. I was designing the look in photoshop and then I would code it with HTML/CSS and got some experience with php/mysql. That and the first year of computer science (11th grade) was when it was fun. But come 2nd year (12th grade) of computer science and I absolutely hated it. Sure non-web programming wasn't it for me, it was unenjoyable to the point I crossed off computer science as a potential major. But it also made me realize I didn't care for web programming anymore. That chapter was over. So I agree with Leo, you should try it first before you major in it. Could save you time and money if you decide to switch majors during your studies. And try it with the more annoying programming languages like Java or something. And push yourself to where you're past the basics and trying to do more advanced stuff.

This is disingenuous. He never never made a direct comparison. He used an analogy to say the reactions of mass disapproval from the public over the spectacle is what you would see if someone did something extremely horrible. You can use any situation that fits that criteria and that analogy would still be true.

I lost the ability to cry. Like I can tear up, sure, but I can’t fully cry. It really sucks. I just want to have a good cry, it’s long overdue, but something is not letting me. I feel as if the reason I’m unable to do so is because of some sort of shame that unless life has made me hit rock bottom, and the ocean is deep—if you thought you hit bottom the reality is you can go much lower, I should always be grateful instead. That crying and feeling sad in regards to me is a weak and self-sabotaging thing to do. And then I feel like maybe I’m not allowed to cry because I might secretly feel like I don’t deserve it. I really don’t know.

Stop it 🤣

Did you not listen to the whole video? He wanted to send them off to places that had governments that were defending them against their mistreatment or demonization but they refused to take any Jew in.

You need to get on the case of Sub-Saharan Blacks. But I'll say this, the reason why Saudis aren't architects isn't because of their religion. The men all had free education, paid in full, for any university they can get into in any parts of the world. They can't use the excuse of religion. I think the interesting part is that no Arab country from the peninsula has an innovative past. Anything from ancient Yemen or North Saudi was learned from their neighbors or beyond, and the barriers to entry to learning and applying these new technologies was low, since it was rather primitive. These guys descend from long lines of poor shepherds who were thugs before there was even an Islam. They don't descend from artisans or farmers. You know, lineages that come from a history of doing intellectually demanding tasks. -

Even if it remains secular, I doubt there'd be any science or REAL progress. Like becoming a formidable first world nation that can give Israel a slap on the wrist for mistreating their poor brethren in Palestine. It'd just be another Egypt. Another Jordan. Another Lebanon. Poor and underwhelmingly mediocre. Twerking for America and Israel while they don't give two shits about the dignity of people like them. -

Why would America want the Shia crescent to fall if not to safeguard Israel's interest? This is the primary priority. -
gambler replied to integration journey's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Tough for you. Israel is a part of the equation and there's nothing you can do about it. -

I agree with everything you wrote. To clarify, what I meant by decentralization of authority and power is nested within the centralization of what you described. So not having a regime that holds power for decades straight. But a power structure where newly elected leaders from an actual pool of candidates can be brought in. Where changes that can happen at the provincial and other levels isn't bottle necked because of centralization of the state's power on all affairs. -

America wrecked Afghanistan too. Without American influence, the civil war would've ended early in Syria. Also America allowed Saudi Arabia to carept bomb Yemen. -

Hot take: Saudi Arabia aside. All those countries are infinitely better than American influence. Neither of them have wronged Palestinians. Neither of them have wronged Lebanon. Neither of them have wronged Iraq. Neither of them propelled the Arab spring that brought us a Syria with a million dead, thousands raped, hundred thousand imprisoned, and a government that Bibi just called terrorists. If you remove American influence, the Russians and Iran would've put an end to the civil war extremely early. I'm sorry but I don't believe it's worth it to sacrifice a million people's lives and millions more to suffer, just so you can free yourself from a dictator that BEFORE the war imprisoned ten thousand unlawfully and was a shitter when it came to providing economic prosperity. -

As a middle eastern, I'm done with this secular farce. Secularism isn't going to save us. What we need is decentralization of authority and power. We need economic prosperity. We need a Middle East free of bad actors, namely a certain blue and white country subjugating the natives because of muh book and muh ancestors from 2000 years before present. Free from America's no-skin-in-the-game foreign policy. Free from the west's cultural hegemony. You have your culture, let us have ours. These things are more important than setting up a constitution that no one will respect. -

Israel shamelessly grabbing more land. To create a buffer zone.. for their buffer zone's buffer zone... There's always an excuse. Always a justification. Absolutely ridiculous. -
