True, we need more kids to go to private school and major in 19th century French Literature, then ask for relief for their $250K college bills. Also, I made a lot of money in my engineering sales career. Two words (engineering, sales) that you could never do, because you don't understand technology, or people. Or the English language. Yet you skyrocketed up a billion dollar company.

Yeah, his question makes no sense. -
Dang, my team sucks. As I predicted.

Cultural existential threat: Marxism and Moral Relativism
jerryskids replied to jerryskids's topic in The Geek Club
Thanks for confirming I never said it was absolute fact. And when challenged by you, I provided a link with political experts who agreed. Still doesn't make it a fact of course, but that's how discussion on a message board goes. At least, how it goes with people with triple digit IQs. How is that search for me saying "data points" going, finance guy? -

I supported it. I provided a link with statements from political experts who agreed. I never said it was an absolute fact; that was something you made up in BeachGuy World. Also I never said "data points", I said "data": https://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/search/?&q="data points"&author=jerryskids&search_and_or=or Just like I never said "facts," your original assertion. A link is data to support my assertion. It doesn't mean that it is an indisputable fact that Biden was influenced by college protests, because we would need to be inside his vacuous brain to truly know. Seriously, you are so sloppy with language, you want us to believe that you skyrocketed through the ranks of a billion dollar company in a field which requires precision? -

Well... that's an opinion. Not sure why that would impact him testifying. Cohen is a convicted perjurer, not an opinion. -
Black Lives Matter activists threaten ‘riots’ if Mayor-elect Eric Adams reinstates controversial NYPD anti-crime units

I just wanted to point out that back in 2021 MDC and I recognized that Biden was in mental decline. -

A red herring attempts to deflect the discussion from the original topic. I created the thread and original topic. I hope logical fallacies are not part of your curriculum. I presume the facts/data comment is some, also misinformed, interpretation of my exchange with BeachGuy, the bean counter who is allergic to data? You might want to read some more before you align with him. Or not, you two would probably get along quite well. I wrote the post because I made an assertion in another thread that I thought cultural issues were an existential threat, and I was asked (challenged) to provide examples. I have more examples coming in the future. Feel free to sit them out; adults who understand nuance and can discuss complex issues are welcome though. If you want to address my assertion about moral relativism, feel free to do so, and I will discuss with you as I have with other left-leaning people in this thread. If not, I'm done responding to you. -

Why is that? -
Every two weeks? I presume you keep it short and clean, something of a military cut? Or maybe your barber is a hot chick who blows you.

jerryskids replied to squistion's topic in The Geek Club
Well, not really. Interesting read from the Free Press which those of us who aren't in the "convict OMB at any cost" camp have been trying to say: https://www.thefp.com/p/the-trial-against-trump-will-throw?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email To summarize: - No charges have been filed against Trump to substantiate the calling of business record falsification a felony. - A much more credible witness testified to Congress that the payments were Cohen's idea. I presume he will testify in the trial. - The judge doesn't care; he knows it won't hold up in appeal because of the first point, but it is all about interfering with the election. Which is sad in a case where the prosecution is flimsily accusing Trump of election interference. -

Yeah, that's my post. I hope you don't use this same level of comprehensive dissection with your students. If you had read the thread, you would see: - I only mentioned BLM as an example of extending marxism into other areas, and never went back to it. - I specifically stated transgenders in the context of safe spaces and sports. I supported a fully transitioned male, who had his parts removed, being in a woman's bathroom. - I opened up the discussion of what is moral absolutism, and who decides? Congrats, you have entered Worms territory of lack of nuance. Maybe leapt past him. I don't know who pissed in your cheerios, but next time you take a bunch of time off and decide to leap into a discussion making no attempt to understand it, spare yourself the embarrassment and just sit it out. -

It doesn't appear that you tried to comprehend the argument. I've had good discussions with several Lefties in this thread; you, not yet. -
No I hadn't. I was trying to jinx Fumble, but the more the merrier!

Yikes, @Fumbleweedhas Xander and Finau (and Speef). The rest of us are playing for second.

I'm not sure I'd have gone with a dig of "diaper changing exp" if I were on Team Biden. -

I see you went to the Worms school of non-comprehension. -
My barber is $23, I usually add a 5 tip (pay all in cash if I have it). Russian immigrant I'll call Boris, because that's his name. It's his business, and I like to support local businesses if I can. I've paid more in the past, but I don't do anything too fancy and he knows exactly what I want. He used to live in NY so we chat about my daughter living there. Mostly though we don't chat -- chit chat is tough for me with the laryngectomy, and he is perfectly happy to quietly cut my hair. There is another barber there who talks non-stop, worse than a cackling hen. I'd grab a razor and cut my own throat if I had to sit in his chair.

I'm speechless. We just had this discussion a few minutes ago. Carry on, Tumblr. -

You think objecting to biological men in women's sports is an irrationally huge fear? -
Jac Caglianone BREAKS College Baseball Record with 9 HR's in 9 STRAIGHT GAMES

No doubt. Good looking guy as well. I bet he has some nice choices among Florida coeds. Regarding baseball: big guy, legs like tree trunks, great looking swing. How is this guy not in the pro system? -

I understand my own posts. You don't, because you have zero nuance: First, I specifically listed women's safe spaces and sports. You apparently label such a position as "transphobic." This is exactly what the Tumblr teen girl mafia did to JK Rowling when she had the audacity to take similar positions. It is entirely consistent with your quick trigger use of such labels. Second, I stated that the specific items I listed are not in and of themselves cultural existential threats, but rather indications of a trajectory toward increasing moral relativism, which is IMO such a threat. Heck, I supported fully transitioned trans use of their preferred bathrooms in the past few pages of this thread. I look forward to "of course it's about trans because that's your morality concern" insights. -
It means that it is more than a few college students. Really, you are going to argue that "Hamas is justified in its war" does not correlate with support? Not sure why you bolded the last part, I've already answered it, you just don't like it.

It does not surprise me that you would consider my discussion in this thread "transphobic," given my model of you being a 12 year old who gets all of his/her news from TikTok. Also, I know it isn't about trans, because I said so in my OP, which you either didn't read or can't comprehend. Replacement is a different topic, perhaps I'll start a thread on that. Unfortunately, my thoughts on it are nuanced, and you lack nuance, so you will leap to the "yur a raciss!" card regardless of what I say. -
Hey @Pimpadeaux, this is what I'm talking about. I provide a Pew poll which shows 34% of Democrats support Hamas, and he responds with no facts and instead accuses me of "feminine feelz and zero facts." This guy would have us believe he skyrocketed up the fact-driven bean counter hierarchy.
