Can you clarify when exactly America was great originally? I hear all this nostalgia but no definitive time. | |

Excellent question. One for which I cannot provide a quantifiable answer, but can qualify. |

No, it's the "we devolve into political droolers by ignoring the intelligent discourse which opposes ours, and only focusing on the vocal idiots who are easy targets, unwittingly making ourselves easy targets." | |

Your point was "I make points, get attacked (personally), nothing happens*". If the people you're arguing against are juts spouting rhetoric at you then what are you doing to convince them otherwise? That is a genuine question. IF you're just saying a they're saying b how is that any different to the echo chambers you don't like? |

That kind of goes against the point of what an echo chamber is. You saying things into the abyss isn't changing anything. |

I should clarify that this doesn't mean that labor participation exit is actually good for the remaining laborers. In most ways it is probably bad. Lucky for us, entry and exit of labor tends to be an effect from a change in something else. My initial claim was regarding the exit resulting in (and from) virtually no industry disruption other than employers having a harder time finding employees and having to pay them more. |

It's definitely not the way the term is generally used. I use it that way because I estimate it to be philosophically consistent with the meaning of the term. |

If I have misread and you simply do not like the tactic I have used (meme-form joke and ridiculousness), then I apologize. I intended this to be where people could post their own hard truths in ridiculous form, but it quickly turned to "there goes wuf again saying dumb stuff". Granted, I may have purposely-subconsciously laid poison pills within (maga) because maybe I want to be the lone wolf. It gets me hard. |

I've been thinking about this because your comment is the base for me realizing some of my own incoherence of thought. It's that the stuff I have posted is in part because I think you guys agree with it but also don't agree with it. I think maybe I have defined an idea by its worst elements (which isn't necessarily wrong, but also not necessarily right). Since your comment, each time I wanted to post something, I have had to ask the question of myself if it's a mischaracterization of the opinions of those on this board, and usually it seems to be so I haven't posted much since. That said, I think the reason why I automatically think they're not mischaracterizations is by this logic: take the Onion one for example, I think that is the inevitable outcome of sufficient enough government intervention into the college system. But you don't see it that way; therefore the Onion piece can seem to me like it's not a mischaracterization of what comes of your professed beliefs even though it is an explicit mischaracterization of your professed beliefs. |

It's possible that I gave gravity to what you said because of the more generous things you said in 41 and 42. I don't know if this is the case, but I do believe that the mind comes to its reformed ideas for reasons very poorly understood, and that for the last few days on occasion your criticism as well as generosity was in my mind. Maybe the generosity opened me up to the criticism. I have no clue, just wanted to say it could be the case. |

Being made to feel like a bad person for refusing to sing the national anthem is disgusting. Am I a bad person for refusing to sing a song about an imaginary dude in the clouds protecting the legacy of a priviledged elderly woman of German heritage? Or would I be an utter hypocrite if I did sing the fucking song? | |

The controversy arises in large part because the kneeling is for the expressed purpose of protesting the anthem, America, Americanism, history, etc.. |

America is fucking crazy. It causes a shitstorm here when our footballers wear poppies. Political statements are a big no-no from FIFA's pov, they fine nations when their fans sing nationalist songs. How do NFL allow this to happen? | |

NFL has always been US specific, so being all about the US is typically accepted (preferred). FIFA is mostly global, so setting one nation above another is weird. |

First of all, on the disrepute front, the NFL has bigger fish to fry. Google "Aaron Hernandez" |

You're right, I don't follow NFL at all. I call it eggball. It's somewhat hypocritical of me to use that phrase because I like rugby, but still, eggball sounds funny. | |
