I really cherish Russ and Econ Talk and get frustrated when I read the description or listen to the first few minutes and have to skip the episode, as was the case today.
I have no idea who EY is except that I think he was a conspiracy crank who posted on mma.tv for a long time - I think they're the same poster but I don't really have proof and there's nothing linking them aside from the EY thing ... And I guess it doesn't really matter. mma.tv eventually deteriorated to a white nationalist ultra weirdly right wing shit hole in the same manner that most of my favorite niche forums deteriorated to the left.
I just am fully tired of AI doomerism. It has fully failed to convince me of anything it has ever said and at this point I just want to hear about the cool and awesome future - not some bullshit about paperclips and complete civilizational destruction.

It honestly reads like fan fiction.
However, I have met enough absolutely bonkers folk in my life that it also isn't that far fetched of a possibility - but this updates my priors to believing he's a gay hooker / lover, not some wacko Trump supporter.

' we should kill our own people easier so some perpetually online dudes and fake politicians don't get mad at us ' isn't sound warfare strategy.
Israel should bomb every single possible target that holds terrorists or terrorists adjacent merchandise and see what happens after a year.

China very plausibly released a virus, intentionally or unintentionally, that devastated most of the world economically if not biologically.
1950's America would haven rightly not stood so silently for this kind of shit - we would have gotten out (several) pounds of flesh; and it would have been worth it.
The pussification of our world can be seen in every single corner of our country. Kids barely even say Trick r Treat anymore, they just kind of vaguely stand there expecting candy that is worse by every qualifying measure compared to 20 years ago.
In a meta sense this is for the best; killing several million more people may not be the best thing to do. Buuuuuut, is it really better that a billion of us live in a complete untruth?
as /u/NewCharlesInCharge states ' A lab in China, most likely with funding from the United States. The geopolitics on lab leak are a wash. ' The issue is we aren't hanging our own at a near fast enough rate, or at all.

' your sense of humor is wrong - you are a racist '
Listen I've had a criterion channel subscription since it started but calling out black criminals by comparing them to apes will never not be funny for me, and most other completely normal (relative) people that I know. We think less of you for thinking finding humor in an awful situation is racist ... And so on in a circle we'll go around each other.
There's plenty of times the word neanderthal gets thrown around for white trash crime and I doubt very much it makes you toss around the r-word.

Hot take: you should've went to the strip club and your superiors were correct in losing esteem for you and being disappointing.
Same logic applies if they asked to go duck hunting or kayaking.

First off, fantastic username.
Secondly, hoes are always so mad!
To the Gucci, what I would like to happen in the society I hoped we live in is that some part of the (judicial?) branch of the government starts pressing charges for the cronies sending those sorts of emails to tech companies. I take no particularly issue with the state employee themselves and frankly hope that they get off scott free. But there should be hundreds, if not thousands, of arrests to anyone involved in this sort of low level perversion. I want a purge - a gentle one. As much as I would love to write something along the lines of ' off with their heads! ' and as much as maybe I believe in that sort of thing, I understand I probably wouldn't want to live in the sort of society that beheads its pubes for following orders. Arrest them, release them, arrest the people in charge, release them, and hire someone who understands they aren't looking for ' people who say shit '.
People Who Say Shit should be a protected class.

I haven't met a single married couple that I would in any way whatsoever call happy. The closer I get to a married couple, the more I realize they quasi get along and usually hate each other.
I've found zero current exceptions.
Which makes me feel like I don't understand happiness. Or maybe happiness can come with many (many!) caveats attached to it.
Not really about your point, and not really saying you're wrong, I just at this point in my life assume most everyone is a pod person and married people turn into a cocoon of bullshit.

people like Pelosis can afford and procure services of higher quality providers than crazy hobos.
Come on man, if I win the lottery, I'm still gonna love 100$ footjobs.

It was far worse than Afghanistan
Per usual, Trump is god-damn right (insert Breaking Bad gif) ... death and decline in America is much worse than any other part of the world, but most especially the past of the world that for 2,000 years is unchanged - with all the negatives that entails. Sure, the almost 2,000 US deaths there is a shame, but the 175,000(ish) death of the Afghani are, I don't know, worth less than the weekend murders in Chicago. It's obviously a shame, it makes me hate America so much, I wish those Afghan's could be fat pieces of shit like me drinking IPA's on Halloween night while watching MNF and possibly ordering Mexican food (imagine an Afghani burrito? Bet that shit would be tight), but they're not. They're some kind of other that isn't me and it's a travesty. But fuck if we can't even make our own better, TF are we gonna do with the average Afghani? Let them live their lives? Ok - but that life is objectively terrible.

even just advocating for the nuclear genocide of the Arab world is enough to permanently destroy your credibility when it comes to condemning racists or white nationalists, who are in many cases less extreme in their policy recommendations.
I think we should be a bit more clear here: until they are happy and secure.
They are not secure because the people around them want them dead. The people around them constantly kill them, want to kill them, pray to kill them, hope to kill them, etc

War - it takes war.
And the longer Israel diddles, the longer the suffering before the cleansing spirit of war.
I wish war was never invented. I wish it were obsolete now. But it was, and it isn't.

Wow you really got shit on here
I thought it was a lovely and passionate write up and all the negativity shows the worst this place can give

The community wasn't calling black people great apes (that I'm aware of based on this discussion), they were calling black criminals that because black people in the US commit a vastly disproportionate amount of crime and the media doesn't cover it so people are covering it with crude humor.
I'd suggest you stop pretending people are tired of a race rather than a large minority of the race (criminals)

I can't remember my grammas name, why should I remember whose the fictional parents of a fictional show I watched over a few years?
In a similar vien ive read the entire Malazan Book of the Fallen series twice and I can't currently think of a single character.
I have such an influx of things to entertain me that I just don't care about keeping that sort of information.

Black criminals
That you and two others have made no distinction makes it seem you're a bit out in the woods about it.
Calling black criminals monkeys is funny and not racist - same with calling white criminals whateverthefuck equivalent.

As someone who has listened to Beck for 27 years, but mostly just like, 8 songs, I have never once thought of him as a rapper, nor have I seen anyone even lightly hint at the possibility.
Is that how you view him? Are there more that view him this way!?

This is what Trump should've taught the Republicans, but didn't really: you must fight.

Not to be a knob about it, but everything.
I'm just not a critic when it comes to my entertainment, and I usually don't have a tolerance for people who are too critical of things. Likewise, I understand completely when someone says they didn't like something.
I thought it was incredibly entertaining, well written, had multiple fantastic characters, had some dope ass battle scenes, etc. I just thought it was cool, and fun, and yea it was mostly a court drama about a family.

I hate all the tacky billboards and ubiquitous stores in my state promoting a vice
Donuts ... low mileage cars ... alcohol ... fast food ...
I don't believe you have thought through your statement unless you're looking for a blanket ban on sin advertising.

This all would go a whole lot better without the implying implications, and just a bare statement of facts and arguments to sum up what seems to me to be a relevant and readable post.
What, do you want us to die of boredom?
I for one appreciate the post the way it is: there's a hook, an explanation, and a got'cha. It's Shakespeare.
nara did a bit of redhat killjoying, but in the proper way that I enjoy about this place. Also, I see one meme reply so far, not a bunch.

Shouldn't there be consequences from a government official threatening to silence a news anchor?

Stochastic terrorism is bad.
I believe I can safely say this about the past: I, and a few other dorks I know, would have cheered the death of any mayor that closed their town down and was seen eating lobster in a near by town.
So, maybe?

Sold - I was thinking how honest & open she was. She's probably insufferable but if you read my thoughts aloud you might think the same of me - true or not.
So: I enjoy paying college aged women to worship their feet. I usually pay 100-200$ an hour for this, varying between their self esteem levels. I've been this this for way longer than I thought I would and unless I fall in love or something I will probably be doing this until I'm a caricature of life.
Will you be Zelle or Venmo me the money? Or would it have to be a traditional hooker fuck like your post implies?
I'm not sure how the answer isn't soaring corporate profits. Yea, the government is printing bullshit amounts of money for bullshit things, but corpo profits are higher every year.
The rich are eating us instead of the other way around.
Do I want deflation? Yes - eggs should be cheap. Bread should be cheap. Celery should be cheap. Apples should be cheap.
Do I want rent control? No ... ... But! We should be making way more money than compared to the increase in rent. I don't know the answer - the free market is kaput and I still fear the government more than corporations but it's getting close.
The American dream is done for who the American dream was supposed to be for in the first place. I'm glad IT workers are doing great, but fuck them, no offense I know a ton of them and they're fantastic people, but fuck them - the rest of us are being left behind.
