Is that why Clinton ousted the then FBI director in 93?

I’m aware it doesn’t say that, not sure why it’s desperate. Clinton was a frequent flyer on the lolita Express and was the president in 1996

Very believable that the order to ignore came from Clinton

Edit: to clarify, this comment was not directly inspired by the article but by the connection between the sex trafficker and the president in 1996

The cheapest most convenient stuff all has meat in it. Frozen dinners, cans of soup, fast food. Not to mention the toxic masculine men that associate eating meat with some sort of primal manhood. Have you not heard about the carnivore diet or that guy that was leaking cholesterol?

A great many USAmericans eat meat 3 times a day or more

Now taking bets for when the major leak of military secrets will occur

Love this game

Interesting that the career aged adults are the most unsure

Thank you much for these insights, it’s definitely going to take a bit of experimenting to get everything figured out. I’ll be referencing this comment for a while.

I don’t think you responded to the right comment.

Looking back at the post, I definitely made some poor word choices. I do think social groups are good, but they don’t change the fundamentally isolating aspects of our modern society like cars. They’re also not a solution when a person doesn’t have time for them which is mostly a problem of capitalism.

I want the hopeful narrative that society will be better when we have a successful socialist revolution, we just need to get people on board.

I think a strong factor that shaped the problems you describe are a result of capitalist need to make a profit on colleges, as well as the type of education system with standards that were set by lobbyists wanting to create productive workers that will advance capital. I think socialist college would look very different and be a lot less dehumanizing

I don’t think you give capitalism enough credit. Especially using college as your example.

I don’t totally agree with what you started saying but you do get to some good points. I will say what I’ve said elsewhere that I’m talking more about advice on meme posts about large trend issues more than specific issues a singular person deals with.

I guess I would like to see fewer coping strategies that help you do capitalism better and more that work by subverting the powers that entrench capitalism. Also I do think frequently acknowledging that the cause is capitalism is important in the building of consciousness.

I don’t think I’m using a straw man to argue against capitalism. I think I’m using the assumption that capitalism is the main problem to argue against a straw man.

Also, there’s a difference between offering remedies on a forum where that’s expected and responding to a meme about how there’s not enough time in the day with your personal rigid schedule for everything. I’m talking about the latter though I might not have expressed it very clearly.

I feel like this comment most understands what I’m saying. I like that addition to the metaphor with the rescue from the burning building being escape from the capitalist economy.

I should add that the posts I was referencing were meme posts talking about less specific problems that relate to a great many people. Problems with not having enough time aren’t helped by someone else showing off how he follows a rigid schedule.

I fully agree that if someone is truly reaching out for help then you should offer whatever you can, even if it’s just what worked for you. Just don’t prescriptive about it.

It’s not just a burning building, it’s a building with multiple fires in many locations with varying intensity. If you spend all your time putting out the individual fires you’re not actually addressing why the fires keep getting lit.

Also the comments I’m talking about aren’t actually buckets of water, they’re more akin to telling the person inside the burning building to cover her mouth and stay close to the ground. Sure it might help keep her alive for a little bit (if he can manage to do those things) but he’s still inside of a burning building.

Most laws aimed at “protecting the children” are used as stepping stones toward fascism

Especially when you’re not sure which of the mental illnesses is going to be doing the talking
