Are you going to enlighten us with that "philosophical problem" now or wait until someone else does and you can then "agree" w/ them?

Shocking

For all the emphasis placed on the individual in our history, the high water mark most would use (greatest gen) was a nationalistic people with communities and families as bedrock.

Removing the family unit from individualism is more Leftist gibberish/dishonesty.

The 2 concepts overlap. We evolved to prefer our genetic kin and individualism is how we learned to best protect them.

There is way to counteract this for our MAGA friends. Start an organizing drive at one of these companies. Then, the circle will be complete.

Yet so many of them buy into obvious race hoaxes. The woke are lazy, dishonest, and just plain stupid.


They are lazy and dishonest because they take advantage of situations that benefit them.

Wrong again, the woke absolutely believe in equality of outcomes are more important than equality in opportunities.


I don’t see how this changes the point I made, that they use their understanding of issues and seek solutions that are the opposite of what we would want.

Also equality of opportunity is a liberal egalitarian idea that isn’t possible either.

Didn't you just go after someone for ad homs?

You're intelligent enough to understand the concept. I don't have any control over the race of people who become Reformed Christians or have my view of child rearing or like SEC football. It so happens most of them are white. That doesn't mean "being white" is particularly high on my list of "ties that bind" when it comes to collectivism.

It's not. The overemphasis on meaningless personal liberties and freedoms is a very recent development and certainly has a different connotation from whatever connection you're trying to make between blood ties and modern concepts of individualism. Pretty confident in saying there would be complete bafflement at the concept of "live your truth" 50 years ago.

I suspect many may have harbored feelings for that Senator from Vermont a few years ago, and just kept it to themselves.

I've only briefly skimmed these last 13 pages, but am I the only one scratching my head at how Cory Matthews from BMW is somehow seen as some kind of alpha male jock that is leading to unsuccessful youth?

Lazy when they take the shortest, easiest path. Dishonest when...

...and deliberately misrepresent those issues, revisionist history, and outright lie in pushing those "solutions".

No, not entirely and the American system is entirely more accessible than any other currently available.

Elon kind of did the same thing yesterday and said people already here are lazy. This is an amazing civil war. The honeymoon didn’t even make it to the inauguration.


Then we should find out just how “lazy” US citizens are. U.S. citizens should have overwhelming hiring preference, end of story.

No H1B’s.

In short, the last 2 generations in America values feelings over fact - being "special" instead of working hard. Also, it is never my fault, I was a victim.

WWII generation in their 30s would have bitch slapped the lot of most people they run into today and he f2cked their moms to hopefully create a better version.
