It is seen as empowering and feminist to socially pressure women into denying one of the most natural human impulses, that of having and raising children, so that they can get more educated and make more money.
This is often reinforced by the meme that as a woman you should not be dependent on a man. In my experience this does a disservice to those who believe it. My wife and I are mutually dependent on each-other, in our complimentary domains. She's been a full-time homemaker the past 8 years. One of her friends from uni, who is now literally a witch, was shocked to hear that she is dependent on me financially.
I see it as the value she provides to our home and our four children far exceeds the value of her working for an employer. We'd be unable to pay a person of equivalent caliber to perform the work she does for our family.

The distracters aren't really effective if there's not a plausible argument for them. That's largely the point of distracters. The goal is to identify the best answer.
You are productive when you produce stuff. The question details 4 types of items and 2 crops that are produced. The crops are also produce.

unnecessarily large pickups
This is also regulation at work.
Previous generations of Americans loved light compact pickups like the Chevy LUV, Datsun 620, Isuzu Hombre, etc.

I'd be curious as to the contribution of rich ethnically French women to that statistic.

seems like the news media, social media, Blinken, and the former intelligence officials mostly or entirely sincerely believed it had a good chance of being Russian disinformation
You believe this is more likely than the deep state and political actors working in unison to protect their preferred candidate from the truth?
Have any of the 'intelligence officials' retracted their letter?
terrible idea
said nothing
I see at least one or two bad to terrible ideas a week. I don't have the political capital, emotional energy, or fucks to give to say something for every bad idea. At best I can prevent the ones that impact me, my team, and my immediate manager.
There's often no reward for the prevention of failure of others.
Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.

I can't speak to the demographics of the student population referenced in the article.
Speaking with my friend who teaches at the local community college the students he'd fail would overwhelmingly be from 'disadvantaged' or minority backgrounds and would lead to uncomfortable conversations. I suspect some form of this plays a role in many schools.
Once we're in the territory of 'magic pills' why not have the pill allow them to be happy with their natal bodies?
Would your magic pill for anorexia help them loose weight or keep them alive without eating?
I don't think it's an apology that's required. Also the 'apologies' I've seen were non-apologies and minimizations, that it wasn't even an ad campaign. This I think largely misses the point.
Their customers it seems largely don't want to drink globohomo beer. The not an ad campaign was a bridge too far.
A HK style, we don't do idpol would have been better.

He clearly had lawful possession, it was left in his care. Isn't the shop owner relying on his boilerplate forms that abandoned devices become the property of the shop, to transfer ownership of the device?
Having seen and used similar service agreements copying and transferring data is frequently authorized.
When the geek squad finds child porn, is that hacking? How about if they rat out the perv to the FBI in exchange for cash. https://www.kron4.com/news/national/documents-fbi-paid-best-buys-geek-squad-for-child-porn-info/
Have we seen evidence that this device was connected to the internet at the time of the alleged hacking?
Calling it hacking is a canard to distract and suppress the content.

The reaction looks disproportionate, he only shifted to DEFCON 3, taking out his communication infrastructure, should result in a DEFCON 1 response from Ye.
Can't it be both anti-semetic and true? Truth is often anti-semetic, and racist and misogynist and misanthrorpic, etc.

Is there a way to express that some issues may not have satisfactory political solutions without being modded for fedposting?

Trump drank water, so did Nazis
Trump is famous for drinking Diet Coke, the Nazi's had no Coke, evil Nazi scientists invented Fanta that the Deutsches Volk may continue to enjoy refreshing soft drinks, and the former Coke bottlers would have something to bottle.
Any evidence that Trump enjoys Fanta?

problem with suburbs is that they don't generate that much economic/tax revenue to support their infrastructure
Is that a problem? I was happy the small town we moved to only provides basic services, police, fire (volunteer), school and plowing in the winter. We've few business and fewer restaruants. Most everyone has a well and septic.
My presumption is that TPTB would find something silly to spend money on given a chance.
That there's a baseline of self reliance is not a 'problem'.

I found the NIST report on the collapse convincing. Did you read the actual report or only 'internet' analysis?
I'm with you on The State Farm Arena and the crazy at universities. Some of the university crazy is the academic equivalent of fake email jobs. I'm kinda wishing for a long deep recession that culls those with a disconnection from the nature of reality.

men look for <10 in women
I'd add too many / alot of rings, bracelets or other jewelry. Excessively decorated or painted nails.
I think all / most women are some sort of crazy, it's a matter of finding the sort of crazy you can live with / manage.

While I am certainly anti-woke. As a earlier reply suggests the older have quantitatively more 'lived experience'. I'm not sure this is arbitrary, nor is gaining more experience through aging denied anyone except the dead. They say the living have all the privilege. If only the dead had better advocacy groups.
Another not infrequent privilege target is height, at least among men. I've not seen suggestions that the short to median heighted should be given subsidized lifts, though this only makes them appear tall. The height version of stolen valor. It won't grant them the lived experience of being tall. Though dating apps could easily show women more short men. There'd need to be some sort of enforced quota system, women would be required to match and date 4n short men for every n tall man. My suspicion is that because this a privilege deficit that affects men, no one cares. My wife had to show me my height percentile before I accepted I was tall, I'm not NBA tall, or fit, or sporty. The tall in the far right tail of the distribution appear to have more tall privilege than me, do I get an accommodation too? Unless you go too far right and the height is pathological or diagnostic, I don't want that.
'Privilege' to me has always been a bit like dark matter or dark energy, it fills the gaps for people that need an easy explanation of unequal outcomes, where the results of investigating too throughly or deeply would conflict with a preferred orthodoxy.
I’m sitting in my office at Pierce & Pierce, the glass walls reflecting the sterile glow of Manhattan’s skyline, and I can’t help but think about Kanye West’s latest track, “Heil Hitler (Hooligan Version).” The lyrics are raw, unpolished, almost juvenile in their repetition—“I still can’t see my children, niggers see my twitter but they don’t see how I be feeling, so I became a nazi yay bitch I’m the villain, nigger heil Hitler, they don’t understand the things I say on twitter nigger heil Hitler…” It’s crude, yes, but there’s something… deliberate about it. I adjust my Hermès tie—red, with subtle navy accents, a perfect complement to my charcoal Armani suit—and I consider the narrative being spun here. Some might call this a tantrum, a mentally ill black man identifying with Hitler in some rebellious fever dream, but that’s too simplistic. No, this is political. This is Kanye leaning into the role of the Nazi villain, a role the left, the globalists, the rootless cosmopolitans, and the neoconservatives have already cast him in, whether he likes it or not. Let’s break this down. I sip my San Pellegrino, the bubbles sharp against my tongue, and I think about Kanye’s trajectory. He’s been a lightning rod for years—his 2022 X post, where he declared he “loves Hitler” and identified as a Nazi, wasn’t a one-off. It was a gauntlet thrown down. The man’s been frozen out, his assets seized, his partnerships with Adidas and others severed like a bad merger. The American Jewish Committee’s Ted Deutch called it “blatant antisemitism,” and The Spectator’s Johnathan Sacerdoti dismissed the lyrics as a “crude litany” of Nazi slogans. But what do they expect? Kanye’s not playing their game. He’s not apologizing, not backtracking, not begging for forgiveness at some gala at the Waldorf Astoria, wearing a borrowed Brioni tuxedo while sipping Veuve Clicquot. No, he’s doubling down. And why shouldn’t he? The left, with their sanctimonious word-policing, the globalists with their borderless, homogenized agendas, the neocons with their endless wars—they’ve already labeled him a Nazi. They did it the moment he stepped out of line, the moment he supported Trump in 2020, the moment he started talking about “Zionist schools” and “financial engineering” on Tucker Carlson’s show. They don’t care about nuance. They don’t care about his custody battles or his bipolar disorder, which he’s admitted to, by the way—31 million followers on social media, and they still reduce him to a caricature. So what does he do? He gives them what they want. He becomes the villain they’ve scripted for him. “So I became a nazi yay bitch I’m the villain.” It’s almost… poetic. I flip through my Rolodex, looking for my tailor’s number—I need to schedule a fitting for a new Zegna overcoat—and I consider the political angle here. This isn’t just lashing out, some primal scream into the void. Kanye’s smarter than that. He’s always been a provocateur, a performance artist masquerading as a rapper. Look at the album this track is tied to—“Cuck,” with its Ku Klux Klan-inspired art, tracks like “Gas Chambers” and “Hitler Ye and Jesus.” He’s not shying away from the imagery, the symbolism, the history. He’s weaponizing it. The left and their allies have created a world where dissent is met with excommunication, where any deviation from the script gets you branded with the scarlet letter of “Nazi.” Kanye knows this. He’s seen the neo-Nazi Goyim Defense League banners in Los Angeles, proclaiming “Kanye is right about the Jews” over highways, giving Nazi salutes while the Anti-Defamation League scrambles to condemn them. He’s seen the protests, the outrage, the think pieces. So he leans in. “Nigger heil Hitler, they don’t understand the things I say on twitter, all my niggas nazis.” He’s not framing the Nazis as villains here—not really. He’s framing himself as the villain, yes, but it’s a middle finger to the system that’s already judged him. If they’re going to call him a Nazi no matter what he says, he might as well own it, amplify it, make it so loud they can’t ignore it. It’s a power move, a reclamation of the narrative, even if it’s drenched in swastika-like doodles and militaristic visuals of men in animal skins, as the music video reportedly shows. I glance at my Patek Philippe watch—1:47 PM, I have a lunch reservation at Le Bernardin in 13 minutes—and I think about the broader context. The WWII taboo is fading, sure, but this isn’t about that. This isn’t some cultural shift where we’re all suddenly okay with Nazi iconography because the history feels distant. No, this is Kanye recognizing the hypocrisy of his critics. The left, the globalists, the neocons—they thrive on control, on dictating the terms of discourse. They’ve built a machine that crushes dissent, that paints anyone who questions their dogma as a monster. Kanye’s not identifying with Hitler because he’s mentally ill or because he’s rebelling against some abstract taboo. He’s doing it because he’s been backed into a corner. They’ve called him a Nazi for years—since his “Jewish bitch” lyrics, since his Burzum-inspired album art, since his rants about Zionist schools. So he’s saying, fine. You want a Nazi? I’ll give you a Nazi. “Nigger heil Hitler.” It’s a mirror held up to his detractors, a grotesque reflection of their own tactics. He’s not the villain because he wants to be. He’s the villain because they’ve made him one. And in that sense, this track, this video, this entire album—it’s political. It’s a statement. It’s Kanye West taking the label they’ve forced on him and turning it into a weapon. I grab my coat—cashmere, Tom Ford, impeccable—and head for the elevator. I can’t be late for lunch. Eric Ripert’s sea urchin dish is a revelation, and I need to be seated before the Wall Street crowd floods the place. But as I step into the lobby, I can’t shake the thought: Kanye’s not wrong to play their game. He’s just better at it than they are.
