Dumb isn’t ableist really. It used to refer to mute people but it hasn’t been used for that purpose in decades. Nice try at another bullshit claim. You like those don’t you?
You misunderstood the first scene completely to the point where I wonder if your sensitivity to this bit is because of your own perspective on where you sit intellectually or financially. You can decide on your own how much of that is the result of your educational choices.
Im guessing you never watched cable tv in the US between 1993-2005. There was a guy who ran a whole business connecting people with this.
You know how you can choose to pay attention in class and do the work and ask for help when needed? If you don’t do any if that you’ll end up dumb and that is a result if your choices
Race isn’t the result of choices but being less educated certainly is to some degree a function of choice. Your suggestion of replacing a trait that involves choices with one that is not chosen at any level is a false equivalence.
You know the top post is just going to be “Hexbear/Lemmy.ml”
Anyone who thinks violence never changes anything has never opened a history text.
No, the scene is about how the wealthy people wait for the best financial opportunity to afford their kid the best while the dumb people just have kids. The wealthy folks wait too long and have no kids.
I know couples who are still embarrassed to admit they met over internet chats surrounding a game. An ex of mine met her husband in WOW 20+ years ago and they still claim their first meeting was a blind date despite she was in NY at the time and he was in Florida.
Chile never got that far. They elected a socialist who was overthrown before they could even collectivize.
What nations “went communist” in the Americas?
I think you’re nitpicking to avoid the obvious conclusion that he is racist and he sucks.
Why is this here? This is a bullshit website started by a crank that appeals to people who do not understand or have not formally studied economics in the last 40 years or so.
1971 is not a specifically unique economic period unless you pick and choose data to make it appear so.
His racism is a good place to start.
The sad part is I bet most who downvoted me don’t understand how critically important carbon sequestering is. We can’tjust plant trees. We need to permanently remove all of the carbon from the cycle that has been introduced since industrialization began.
What moderating effect do you think he has?
He’s genuinely a shitty guy. The fact that worse people exist doesn’t make him more acceptable.
Have you been paying attention to this conversation? Maybe go back and reread before replying to me. You might find yourself thinking differently when you see my comments and the replies that I got from the start
His overt racism and sexism are a problem as are his anti-social norms regarding hygiene/sanitation etc
You really have trouble understanding things if that’s your take away from my comment. I never concluded that you are poor or stupid but Im leaning towards you not being a strong reader based on the skills you demonstrated today.
