I’ve read it.

Orwell was socialist my dude.

Ever read one of his other books Down and Out in Paris and London?

It helps explain why he is a socialist.

Dark wing duck!

Vacuums there really are only two BIFL brands.

Miele or Sebo.

Moo body cared who I was until I put on the mask.

Fido the zombie movie?

Make sure you get me a head coffin.

The H in H2O stands for homosexual, it’s true, look it up.

He said ‘lots of men’ not all.

It was his video on IQ tests that set off alarm bells for me.

IQ tests are not some method of determining intelligence they are very much linked to relative education/socioeconomic standing. His complete lack of criticism and neutral/positive support of IQ tests make me think he likes the result of his score…

Depends how generous or cynically you apply ‘bad faith’.

I’ve never experienced it on Lemmy but then again I don’t usually entertain people who, to me, obviously have little understanding of the topic at hand.

When it’s something I have little knowledge about I tend to lurk if I can or I’ll be more easily swayed one way or the other. If I care enough I go do my own research.

You look absolutely fine.

If you did want to adjust this type of outfit in future though I would suggest a slightly smaller shirt as this one is a little long in the sleeves and you’ve got that excess fabric around the waist.

Tucking in the shirt more temporarily fixes the excess fabric though. I find pulling the shirt down by the hand via the fly works well. Obviously don’t have fabric coming through the fly and remember to rezip.

That’s brutally honest and I’m sorry to hear about your experience.

I also feel bad for your child who has to grow up in that environment.

This has to be a bot no?

Do you have any siblings?

I was attempting to be humorous; obviously that failed. Surprisingly it doesn’t seem to be apparent to many as to why America glorifies soldiers rather than teachers so I guess I’ll elaborate.

Glorifying soldiers is a nationalistic practice designed to distract from the very real cost of war I.e. the death of young men and women to protect capitalist interests.

It’s a tactic to encourage impressionable people to join ‘for glory’ or prestige when in reality there is very little of either. First hand accounts of literally any war will tell you this.

You could use this same tactic for teachers but historically teaching is seen as a ‘woman’s’ job and so the existing value structures of our society preclude this profession from the same veneration. I.e. the patriarchy is why teachers aren’t glorified in the same way.

I have no idea, I’m just sympathetic to the plight of confused Americans.

You poor thing, maybe if your teachers were praised more you’d have been taught better and be less confused.

I’m glad Mkbhd is against/cautious of crypto.

As a unionist…have I got the solution for you!

No no, America is the world. You didn’t know?

Ahhh yes, the most galaxy brain of galaxy brain political ideologies.

Enlightened Centrism.
