I don't really understand where they want to go with this argument because to me it sounds like a bunch of semantic bullshit. Like obviously what people are talking about violence having no place in a democratic election. Going "but war exists, checkmate liberal" sounds dumb as fuck.
And not that it even needs to be said, but if Kyle Gas had make a joke on stage about a Palestinian being mauled to death by a dog there'd be far more outrage, so no, we don't consider that violence acceptable either.

I don't know anything about this person and I guarantee his life is better than 90% of other people who currently live on this earth, and 99.99% of all people who have ever lived on this earth
if you questioned him on any of these claims he'd be like "oh the death of minority friends? w-well brian is half-puerto rican and his aunt died from cancer the other day, but you see it just hit at the wrong time and adds up to all the other death and horrors recently"
I guarantee you this motherfucker is playing fallout 76 right now trying to unlock the latest season pass cosmetic bullshit while drinking a starbucks frappucino because it was a little hot today and he deserves a nice treat every once in a while actually every day
"I was just reading about some horrific shit in an area where political violence is normalised, and you don't want the same thing happening here???"
also doesn't era practically require a college or business email address to register?
practically everyone there is either college-educated or has a good white collar job, while they screech about vile death and torture and experiencing literally the worst pain imaginable daily

Sounds more like you would really like that people justify and validate extremist actions if they align to your political beliefs. Because it sounds less like “were is the empathy for Palestines?” and more like “WHY PEOPLE CANNOT OPENLY WISH FOR TRUMP DEATH?”.
It really is fucking rich that restareadotcunts are pearl clutching about someone getting cancelled for an edgy joke

This is not censorship btw
Cancel culture does not exist but this silencing of marginalized people begging for basic human decency is the real cancel culture.

What an absolutely retarded take, even by REE and Mimic standards.
Seriously, I’ve read it several times and am still in awe at how fucking stupid that guy is.
I can’t decide whether “you burn the same calories sleeping as running a marathon” or “humans can move without consuming energy” is the dumbest thing I’ve read today.

Quote:So I work in DEI we are having to avoid certain terms now. Like we're having to avoid words like diversity and be a bit more tactical with the terms we use. Same with projects we use terms more like to expand our potential work force rather than minorities or underrepresented groups. Job titles are changing but we're still doing the same jobs we just can't be that overt.
A totally honest, non-bullshit job that consists of dodging anti-discrimination laws is what capitalists fear.

The company I work for hired a Chief Diversity Officer circa 2021. In the following months, she was presenting at every town halls and we were getting a ton of emails about various initiatives. A few weeks ago, I realized that I haven't heard about her in over a year. I looked her up on Teams and she's gone. No company email announcing her departure. No replacement.
I assume something similar is going on at hundreds of other companies.

Don't question the premise of it, don't question if it achieves its goals or not, don't question anything, that just hands a weapon to the chuds, so you need to do it no matter what and never stop, never admit any faults.
