Yes, and can you not see that it could have come across as rather dismissive, the way you used it?

It's a flawed argument anyway since it seems to suggest that those out of the norm (whatever the "norm" may be - and it is only your perception we're talking about here) will just have to lump it. I'd argue that those who do not wish to conform to your slightly unsettling vision of the future and settle down to have kids for the good of the nation have every right to speak up about the social injustice they encounter without having to hear some claptrap about "That's just the way it is, though, love..."

No, I can't. It's a neutral term. Stop being so emotional.

People should have kids for the good of themselves.


"That's just the way it is, though, love..."
Feeling uncom

For someone feeling uncomfortable being an outlier, yeah that is the way it is for both men and women. I don't think it's for government to correct.

 

[Clint Planet]

No, I can't. It's a neutral term.

You said before it could be positive. That means it can be negative, too. Neither of which are "neutral."

I suspect you might have a different view of the world if you were a woman. Or black.

Would the banking crisis of 2007-8 count?

That's an excellent example CP. Eventually reality will not be denied, no matter what the guys in suits are telling you. See the Baghdad Bob meme for another example. Steiner on his way to the fuhrer's rescue would be another.

Think about their helplessness in the face of that crisis when they try to get rid of most of the cash in your pocket in exchange for a debit card to Oyster your life through. No bills larger than a tenner, say. Easier to trace, easier to turn off when the ice cream hits the rotating blades. I don't know how old you are mate, but if you're under 40, you'll probably see it in your lifetime.

File under "he's a crackpot". Most of what we call money is someone else's debt. What happens to that money when the debt is left to hang?

Perhaps, but the left is still in control of culture which is where the battle really needs to be won.

You'll never win it, the arts are always left wing..which has huge influence on our culture

 

[ilikecheese]

I find it amazing that someone in this day and age has such a narrow view of humanity.

The worry is that there are so many.

Really sickening stuff for me.

I don't get this.

Thats the reason why im counting days x

It's real danger because obviously intelligence agencies are having their own little civil war atm.

 

[Clint Planet]

I don't get this.

It's actually an old Nazi tactic -.accuse opponents of "cultural Marxism" (or cultural Bolshevism, as it was known in Germany in the 30s), a vague and essentially meaningless term which nonetheless serves to demonise progressive thinkers as commies and somehow enemies of the very fabric of our society. Utter bull.

That tactic predates the Nazis by many years - Pitt the Younger used it to label anyone who wanted meaningful reform as revolutionaries, for instance.

Perhaps, but I was called a "cultural Marxist" this morning in a PM and it was such a vague, meaningless term that I realised I wasn't sure that I knew what it meant exactly so looked it up online! It's a right-wing smear used on anyone who values decency and fairness and, importantly, sees multiculturalism as a strength.
