( ・-・)I used to use reddit a few years ago.
I got a lot of my friends into it and as I did I started to realise how shit it actually was. Now I can't use it, and cringe everytime someone talks about it.
( ・-・) >>256 I don't either. I then say "Fine, go ahead and get married. You gays now also have the right to a failing relationship, and a divorce that screws up your financial situation."
( ・-・) I did the same with my friends and imageboards, >>351-man. I lead them there and then left to the textboards alone. I wanted to die on a beautiful spring day in forest when its peace was disrupted by a torrent of memes.
( ・-・) >>351 same with me and 4chan, I did actually treat it like I was part of a secret club, now I cringe when it's mentioned or if I thnk about my past self.
( ・-・) I popped in there after not doing so since 2007 or so and they're still recycling some of the same porn so I feel justified in not missing it much.
( ・-・) Sex isn't that great...
( ・-・) Oh look, you're in a supersecret superclub now, >>351,353-355
( ⊙‿⊙) WE SHOULD GET TATTOOS!
( ・-・) >>356 I entirely agree. Hopefully it gets better after some practise.
( ・-・) I used a mitten to masturbate. It was the highest point of my experience with mittens.
( ・-・) You are all trying to force your crap memes too hard.
( ・-・) The popularity of Monty Oum's animation completely baffles me, as it is not particularly quality.
( ・-・) I don't mind developmentally disabled people until they make up the majority of people on my bus. Then they get really annoying and I start to think positively about eugenics.
( ・-・) People who think everything they see more than once is an attempt at a "meme"
( ・-・) or any image with text on it for that matter
( ・-・) The 90s sucked.
( ・-・) never
( ・-・) when i was a boy i ripped a hole in my pirate kermit and fucked it.
( ・-・) The Great Gatsby is just another thing American school systems cram down our throats, while not teaching things that actually prepare us for reality.
( ・-・) Once I graduated high school, I put that book in the paper recycling bin.
( ・-・) I don't have monafont installed and don't much care how it messes up ASCII art.
( ・-・) I don't care that it's S-JIS art and not ASCII art.
( ・-・) I hate when people say "If you can put your mind to it, you can do it." How many people put their whole minds into practical time travel, and never got it to happen?
( ・-・) Tell the truth say something like "If you think you will not achive your goal, you probably will not, but if you try, you MIGHT actually get what you want."
( ・-・) I once said something to a school counselor similar. I said "You school staff always tell us you can be an astronaut, Nobel prize winner, or N.Y. Times bestseller author, but at the same time you tell us we can't become rock stars, movie stars, or lottery winners. Lets compare the ratio of your examples to my examples."
( ・-・) The power of positive thinking sounds like trying to limit what people are allowed to say and think.
Every read the book "Bright Sided" ? I recommend it, and I usually don't read books.
( ・-・) Lets actually have a prison for fat people. The perimeter wall will be five feet high and the bars three feet apart. The prison will have a gym. If you can escape you’re free to go.
( ・-・) A number of people in artistic careers are always giving advice about how if you weren't doing this shit like EVERY DAY because you love it to bits, it'd be better for you to GTFO because you'd be hating yourself too often for a job that pays and treats you like shit, and like
( ・-・) I think they're extrapolating their own self doubt, trying to absolve themselves by convincing themselves that they DO love it and that they should spare others like themselves a little grief. Or trying to save all those fools (a majority of art majors for instance) who don't understand that they're not really that good and they won't be paying the bills with it so wise up now.
( ・-・) In actuality, though, love is not about being intoxicated by a thing 100% of the time, and some of the best artists are full of crippling self-doubt and having nervous breakdowns about it all the time, but will never be optimally good at anything else. So it might be well intentioned, but I think it's not good advice. You won't be totally loving something all the time, and you won't necessarily think you're good at what you do all the time, but if you really want to do it... you kind of know.
( ・-・) Anyway, should apply to this position as a fluffer? (y/n)
( ・-・) Are you the kind of person who never finishes what he starts? Then yes.
( ・-・) Interestingly finishing what you start is what those artists >>377 hates are talking about when they say that some parts of commercial art are brutal and nervous breakdown inducing (namely the last 20% of any project). Most dilettantes give up before they reach this stage then tell everyone that art is really fun and doesn't require a lot of work.
( ・-・) Twitter is more of an Internet Hate Machine than 4chan ever was.
>>380
It depends on the people you talk with. On 4chan, everyone has the same personality.
( ・-・) Nobody deserves to be praised or blamed. The first few years of development are completely out of a person's control, yet happen to be the most important ones in shaping them as a human being. The way life goes from there cannot be helped much, as any action carried out is decided upon within the limited boundaries of the mind that someone else built for you.
( ・-・) That just sounds like some apologist excuse for being NEET. You can change your life.
( ・-・) And if it's hard I guess you could also take psychedelics.
( ・-・) Isn't the purpose of this thread to create a safe space for expressing things that would otherwise get you lynched by the majority?
( ・-・) Then why the fuck are there so many posts responding to someone they disagree with?
( ・-・) This government shutdown thing should have happened years ago.
( ・-・) People keep talking about how much feminists hate Kill La Kill but so far I've only seen feminists talk about how much they liked the first episode...
>>389
not that I'm disagreeing, but actually it's happened a lot in the US since 1975 or so. the talking heads on TV wring their hands and tell us to panic, but nothing ever happens. if I were more paranoid than I am I'd start in about manufactured crises, but now I just think all the politicians (be advised that when I use this term I mean the ruling class, which in the US includes the news/entertainment/agitprop media and the extended civil service) involved on every side are just that incompetent. my cynicism has overwhelmed my paranoia.
( ・-・) Equality is for mathematics.
( ・-・) If you bully loli, you should get thrown in the gully. This means you, Abnes Abcess.
( ・-・) I don't have the nads to say most of the things I want to say, even with anonymity as a condition.
( ・-・) It's like the only things I am in private that I'm not in public is a chronic masturbator and an e-pirate (and seriously, if asked, who would guess otherwise?).
( ・-・) The Transformers cartoons of our youth were shit flavored shit and you know it.
( ・-・) I want to build a machine that quickly turns CO2 into something else. I do not want to build it because of environmental concerns.
( ・-・) I want to build it to piss off people who only want to limit CO2 by restricting coal and oil.
( ・-・) I think Sergeant Mark IV is pretty cool guy, eh has balls in an increasingly pussified society and doesn't afraid of anything.
( ・-・) I want to punch my client in the nuts enough times to make sure he never fathers children.
( ・-・) I wanted to move to New York City and become a hipster after watching Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist
( ・-・) I don't trust this board is fully anonymous
( ・-・) I like waiting lines.
( ・-・) I think tripcodes look cool but tripfags ruin the discussion.
( ・-・) Fedora shaming is a form of bullying and it is reprehensible.
( ・-・) If liking a thing is popular then you aren't a nerd for liking it, even if it is sci-fi or involves a shitload of math or whatever. That was the old nerd. The new nerd is a brony or some shit like that. People obsessed with "memes" can get right the fuck out.
( ・-・) I am aware of the hypocrisy.
( ・-・) I often wonder of a Brony is now what a Moonie is during the 1990s.
( ・-・) The people of intelligence that we need more of usually decide to be childfree by choice, and have enough self discipline to not create a child by accident.
( ・-・) What a shitty future.
( ・-・) I worry that I've lost the vision for the future I want to actualise.
( ・-・) Have you ever noticed the most hardcore leftists around you are all genetic trash? Ugly, weak, dorky and infantile. Anyone who's that desperate for The State to cover all their needs really should just shoot themselves.
( ・-・) How many people called Bush a retarded ape, and then couldn't handle it when Obama was called a retarded ape?
( ・-・) My little DQN can't be this right wing.
( ・-・) Appearance and personality shouldn't even factor into employment, only skills.
( ・-・) Fuck art. Not particular paintings or statues or whatever but the very notion of "art" itself. Ask someone what it is and you'll probably either get aetherial bullshit about crap like "soul" or else "you'll know it when you see it" which is basically a tacit admission of "I dunno lol". Basically anything can be "art" if the right pretentious jackass says it is, and the term is ultimately useless except to foster censorship, since their bullshit is "art" and your bullshit isn't.
( ・-・) White genocide is underrated.
>>415
( ・-・) White Genocide would be a fantastic name for a punk band.
>>414 Art is anything I can fap to, anything I can't fap to is not art.
( ・-・) Fuck the Left.
( ・-・) Conservative dokyun is so adorable, it's like he walks around with little soapboxes strapped to his feet all day.
( ・-・) I want conservative dokyun to be a net character.
( -m-) Fuck the Left.
>>420
He is posting on the "things you wouldn't say if you weren't posting anonymously" thread so he is, to some extent, self-aware.
( ・-・) Touch my penis.
( ・-・) I watched one episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic out of curiosity.
( ・-・) Now I want to cum inside Rainbow Dash.
( ・-・) I once conversed with person using nothing but memes.
( ・-・) Our forefathers didn't fight for this.
( ・-・) I watched a few episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic out of curiosity.
( ・-・) What a retarded show.
( ・-・) Our forefathers were assholes. The only good thing in the constitution is the part where we're allowed to change it.
( ・-・) I wish Americans would realise the 'inter' in internet means international.
( ・-・) Brits invented everything needed for that first, >>434.
( ・-・) It still hasn't.
( ・-・) This thread has too much individualism.
>>437
(☞´_⊃｀)☞ That's only because God wouldn't trust an Englishman in the dark.
( ・-・) Democracy is not all it's cracked up to be; at the end of the day the only "merits" it selects on is who can spend more on campaigns and who can lie most convincingly to the masses.
( ・-・) Those stinking masses. Fascism would solve everything. It couldn't possibly backfire on me, maybe perhaps on those other people, but I don't like them very much.
( ・-・) Are our only choices "Idiocracy" or "1984?" I reject this false dichotomy. I say that the future is "Idiocracy" AND "1984." Imagine a gigantic goofy red clown shoe, stamping on a human face, forever.
( ・-・) Gaddafi was shot by jews who saw threat in his "golden dinar" plans. Jews or perhaps Americans who didn't want to lose global power.
( ・-・) Most Jews aren't vile and evil people, but the most vile and evil people are Jews.
( ・-・) Are people ever going to decide if China is a communist country or a capitalist country? It seems the same people will argue either way in order to win a debate.
( ・-・) It was Europeans. Libya was Europes Iraq, only actually for oil instead of to establish a buffer for Iran.
( ・-・) And, you know, without the ~outrage~ and media coverage of Iraq.
( ・-・) Politics is just a huge entertainment industry in the US. In reality everything is still controlled by her majesty. That black president is meant to show Americans their place.
( ・-・) People getting pissed off at twerking should just shut up already. You already knew who Elvis was, and how his dance moves offended your parents or grandparents, now you repeat their stupidity.
>>449
a lot of people say it still because a lot of people aren't educated well and think communism means evil USSR rather than what it actually means
their current set-up, although fairly socialist (gov owns companies), is still much more like what one would call capitalism rather than communism, just people don't get angry when lawmakers tell their company what to do
In most current capitalist societies in the west (especially the US), the government is just less involved with companies (until it's too late), and still does a lot of work controlling and limiting them (which is good, because full on laissez faire is pants-on-head retarded)
and since 1978, the allowance of private owned businesses in china has grown a large amount (and do note that some of that article and it's statistics at the end might not be the best as the gov is a minority holder in some companies)
I'd call it, moving towards the right spectrum of modern economic structure and definitely not within communism.
Communism's definition is overly strong though, and shouldn't really be thrown around as almost no actual large-scale society can manage what the idea entails.
( ・-・) Somebody tried to friend me on Facebook a couple of days ago. I looked at his page, and it was all full of political posts and nothing else. I look at his pictures, and he looks like a human frog. Soft, fat, round with a huge open mouth.
( ・-・) Why are these genetic messes so political?
>>449
They are whatever economic system where the elite are able to stash their riches on accounts hosted on fiscal paradises so they don't become accountable to their own country, incidentally it's the same as the US. Those unoriginal slanted-eye copycats.
( ・-・) Islam's ideals of economics and social order are superior to those of the West.
( ・-・) I think the best government would be a benevolent dictatorship.
( ・-・) All the mandatory fine arts classes in high school simply makes most of the students more miserable than they already are.
( ・-・) I can't stand Indians.
( ・-・) I am still amused by Doge.
This thread suddenly got a lot better.

I can't even tell what that was supposed to be, but I'm going to interpret it as "being shoved into a Goatse hole".

I think it's a knee to the face?
I wouldn't guess that if this wasn't an anonymous board, though.
( ・-・) Eugenics is actually a pretty good idea.
( ・-・) I oppose war on drugs. So many drug users are so shit at life, that having drugs kill them off early is an advantage.
( ・-・) And why would the war on drugs be considered conservative anyway? Seems like when someone wants to say they are politically conservative, they say they prefer laissez faire economics and deregulation.
( ・-・) Do words even have meaning anymore?
>>482
( ・-・) I agree.
( ・-・) Likewise, how did traditional conservative individualism, which is about remaking the world to suit yourself and being the Ubermensch, get connected to Christianity, which is this objectively rather silly superstition that raises weakness, self-hatred, and martyrdom-seeking to virtues.
( ・-・) "What would Jesus do?" He'd hang there on the bloody cross and weep and die, that's what.
( ・-・) Ask, rather, what a man would do, ask what is fitting for a man to aspire to.
( ・-・) The strong do what they will and leave their mark on the universe. The weak and defective perish and are forgotten--and this makes them disgusting, not saintly. Evolution is a gas, if you're one of the survivors. Will you be the hammer or the anvil?
( ・-・) I did some social service at some place where they helped kids and teens with autism and down's syndrome and stuff, and I saw this teen who had a deliciously perky body, great tits, nice ass. I won't lie, I wanted to hit that very badly, even though she slobbered all over the place. In fact, I think that made me more aroused. Now that's something I wouldn't say if this wasn't an anonymous board.
>>482
I don't know how libertarians and conservatives got mixed together either, but if I had to take a guess, I'd say it's because both are retarded, so it's easy to lump them together.
I'll leave now.
>>484
( ・-・) I can relate. Retards at least tend not to be insufferably uppity the way most women are these days.
>>486
( ・-・) I don't know. Retards are way more insufferable than normal people. Often they are stuck on the egocentric phase forever, so they are extremely self-centered and annoying and hold grudges and throw tantrums over everything.
>>488
Most of the ones I've met have been pretty good-natured, TBH. Though I don't deny that they can be annoyingly childish.

( ・-・) Women buy expensive fashions to impress other women much more than to impress men.
( ・-・) Why do women even buy those fashions? Most of the fashion business is about women being forced to get eating disorders and use dangerous drugs to stay in the business. So many women wear this stupid crap, yet say they fight against eating disorders and dangerous drugs.
>>497 ( ・-・) Because deep down, women know full well that men prefer thin, healthy, fertile young women to fat ugly old sows, and dangerous pills are much easier than working out and eating healthy foods.
( ・-・) Don't like offensive radio shows like Bubba the Love Sponge? Go make your own radio show where you only say nice things, and make the show so awesome, that everybody prefers your show.
( ・-・) I can't stand people who use 'awesome' to describe every single positive thing.
>>502 ( ・-・) Yes. When he left XM radio, he worked for 102.5 FM Tampa Bay.
( ・-・) im gay
( ・-・) i only come to 4-ch once a year, and it's to troll
I have masturbated to captchas
( ・-・) i have never masturbated to a captcha
( ・-・) i want to masturbate to a captcha now, but i can't find one that is ecchi enough
( ・-・) "Misogynist" just means you oppose the feminist bloc and their bullshit. That's a good thing. Wear it proudly, brothers!
(∩´ ~ `∩) I want to know whether I am truly kawaii. Uguu~
( ・-・) I only now just noticed that little expander arrow in the bottom corner of the text input box.
( ・-・) Also, I think OWS was funny because they tried to use modern liberal organizational techniques and ended up just flailing around pointlessly and falling apart.
( ・-・) I think OWS did a lot, and got a lot of people aware and knowledgable about the state of the country the media and government is trying to hide
( ・-・) I sympathize with Vladimir Putin
( ・-・) I checked my privilege, and found that I earned every bit of it through hard work.
( ・-・) I can't stand stupid people.
>>519
( ・-・) People who say that are generally stupid, themselves.
( ・-・) I'll rape you in your fingers for typing that.
( ﾟ ヮﾟ) You should all be ashamed of yourselves!
( ・-・) Hexchat is a lot better than mIRC
>>517
( ・-・) Yeah. Every "Putin sucks" argument I've heard so far tends to come off as "sounds good to me".
( ・-・) Jazz should be a proper noun
( ・-・) I wouldn't do the things the way those people do
( ・-・) I wouldn't live there if you paid me toooooooooooooooo
>>524
I feel like I'm being fed a war, but they're letting the interns from college do the propaganda. It's vaguely irritating. There should be bold posters everywhere, showing well-drawn relief portraits of soldiers and crying women and farmers and stuff, with captions like "ARE YOU DOING YOUR PART?" or "FACE THE GREAT BEAR WITH COURAGE, YOUNG MAN."
Instead it's split between awkward comparisons to Hitler and wishy-washy arguments about how EU membership is a human right or something.
( ・-・) Leftists are living proof that you can fool some of the people all of the time.
( ・-・) There is no Jewish conspiracy.
>>528
( ・-・) Proper Hitler comparisons are done by Russian media towards Ukrainian nationalists. It's a big issue in Eastern Europe with some ex-USSR (now EU) countries where nationalist movements rose to power. They only embarrass EU by whitewashing Nazism and WWII criminals. They should be just expelled for that, really.
You see, these little countries that spent most of their history under somebody else's rule strive to have those "national icons" to show how deep, proud and independent are their roots. Emokids, basically.
>>528
It's probably because they feel wishy-washy themselves about war, yo. They expect the US to do all the heavy-lifting for them. And of course, how do you expect them to feed you nationalistic propaganda, when joining the EU is inherently anti-nationalistic?
>>531
During the "collectivization of the kulaks" during the 1930s, the USSR killed between ten and thirty million Ukrainians--about 25% of of the nation's population. I am not sure how one can reasonably expect the descendants of the survivors to just forget about it--even if the Azarov regime attempts to ban public discussion of the topic and teach denial of the Holodomor in Ukrainian public schools--and welcome a return to Russian rule. This would be a bit like expecting the Chinese to silently accept a foreign dictator whom all knew to be a Japanese puppet.
The Russians are displeased because Putin meddled in the affairs of a neighboring nation and did so in a crude, ham-handed manner, and got caught, and it blew up in his face embarrassingly. Everyone knew the Azarov regime was a Russian puppet, a creation of the FSB, or whatever the old KGB calls itself this week. One need not be a "fascist," whatever that word even means in 2014 (and if it means "ruthless militaristic dictator who wishes to invade and conquer his neighbors," Mr. Putin and his fan club should look in the mirror and think carefully before flinging such a term around, or accusing others of "whitewashing WWII criminals"), to sympathize with the popular uprising that drove Azarov from power and drove him to seek exile in Russia. Perhaps this will result in a chastened Russia, whose power abroad and influence are yet further diminished.
Please ponder the meaning of the term "blowback." It doesn't just happen to the USA.
I have masturbated to Lara Croft's death scenes in the remade Tomb Raider game.
>>533
( ・-・) Holodomor has nothing to do with current events on Ukraine unlike "fascism" which might have a bit of relevance to far-right government that rose to power. If you were following the uprising, you probably noticed that its leaders were pretty much the same people who are responsible for the Orange Revolution. Police should have actually shot at protesters.
Current problem is that Eastern Ukraine doesn't want to be under new rule, but Putin chickened out instead of helping it, which is highly illogical after his annexation of Crimea by force when he promised to protect anyone speaking Russian. Unfortunately, he isn't "ruthless militaristic dictator who wishes to invade and conquer neighbours" despite of being portrayed as such in some mass media. Crimea was sought after by Russia, Turkey and NATO as it gives a strategic control over Russia's access to the Black Sea.
I'd also like to remind you that Ukraine was an integral part of Russian Empire and USSR and as such there are deep ties between two peoples effects of which on general population you might not perceive through political news.
>>534
At least one time when I was a teenager I booted up the shareware version of Vinyl Goddess From Mars (which I had downloaded unbeknownst to my parents) and made Vinyl climb up and down a vine with one hand while I used the other hand to jack off until I came.
I really don't like when US politicians criticize the Russia and Ukraine situation. That is because they are also usually guilty of entering someone else's land without a very good reason for it.
( ・-・) It's amazing how much more often I get laid when I pretend I just got out of jail.
( ・-・) What the fuck is wrong with women?
>>535
( ・-・) The only "far right" government in Eastern Europe today is the Putin regime in Russia. We are aware of the Russian state propaganda organs' propensity to use the words "Nazi" and "fascist" for anyone, anywhere, who opposes Russian jingoism, revanchism, and irridentism. As a result the terms have lost all meaning and become empty obscenities, not even political.
And yes, we are also aware that Ukraine was once an integral part of Russian Empire and USSR, in exactly the same sense that Manchuria, Korea, Indochina, and the Philippines were once integral parts of the Japanese Empire. "Deep ties," indeed.
Why are Russians so tone-deaf, so unwilling to consider that centuries of brutal occupation, rape, looting, and mass murder of their neighbors might have left their neighbors a bit resentful, that their neighbors might not fully share in their enthusiasm and nostalgia for "the good old days" of the USSR?
Even the Japanese are better at taking a hint. The Japanese at least comprehend that their neighbors resent them and are suspicious of their motives, and that it has something to do with Twentieth Century history, though they still do not seem to grasp exactly why.
But this is becoming excessively serious.
( ・m・) I'm not into the whole recreating-the-Soviet-Empire-by-force-over-the-strenuous-objections-of-the-people-living-there thing.
>>539 ( ・-・) Indeed. Women these days are little more than spoiled children with tits.
>>512

Palestinian politics is bullshit. People have the choice between Fatah, which is composed of corrupt assholes, or Hamas, which is composed of violent assholes. There are other factors that pushed Hamas into power in Gaza, namely that it's a tiny shithole ghetto state that contains 2 million people who have fuck all for resources and can't better their circumstances because of political reasons. Likely people felt frustrated with Fatah there, though I can't imagine they'll be itching to put Hamas back in power after the latest war. My current hope is that a better party will arise out of all this bullshit, but it seems unlikely considering the conditions.
Anyway, just don't talk about something you don't know anything about. I blame Hamas fully for what happened, but most of the people hurt in Gaza are just trying to live their lives.
>>559 Honestly, Palestine is a cornered rat with exactly one option. While I dislike killing, I can't think of a better party for them than Hamas at the moment. Do you have any insights on how they could gain self determination non-violently? Israel seems perfectly willing to commit genocide.
You mean the Isreal that goes out of its way to avoid civilian casualties while dealing with neighbors who revel in killing civilians is the genocidal half of this conflict?
Do your thoughts and opinions ever actually intersect with reality at any point?
>>566 Israel that uses their border guards to regulate food import? That shoots at fishing boats who try to go far enough out to actually catch fish? How does starving a country to death avoid civilian casualties?
How does hiding rocket launchers and weapons in schools and hospitals avoid civilian casualties? How does the Hamas police deliberately forcing Palestinian civilians to stay in combat zones avoid civilian casualties? How does digging tunnels under Israel with the express purpose of KILLING CIVILIANS avoid civilian casualties? How does breaking every single fucking cease fire the moment they have more rockets in place avoid civilian casualties? How does having a charter that's devoted to utterly destroying their neighbors no matter how much it costs themselves avoid civilian casualties?
>>565, they have two options, actually. They just utterly refuse to consider the peaceful one because their magic book tells them to kill all Jews all the time.
>>568 I never said Hamas was morally upright or didn't kill Israeli civilians and jeopardize their own. I said I wasn't sure how else Palestine could prevent their own extinction and asked if you could think of a peaceful way because I don't see it.
>>568 for the record, I also support Israel's right to self-determination, I just don't see it as presently being threatened.
>>569, the peaceful way is pretty simple actually. Stop trying to destroy Israel. Stop trying to KILL ALL JEWS. Make peace. Simplest thing in the world. Requires very little effort on their part, and they'll be much better off in both the short and long term. Win win.
Israelis want peace - they're the most progressive society in that region.

Yes, however capitalism has one major flaw, and that is the construct of employment, which in practice is usually merely slavery with just enough pay to keep alive. The emancipation which the workers of the world need is self-employment.
>>703
Self-employment may only work because sufficiently few other people do the same. Probably, I don't know. Just thought of it. May be economics 101, mea culpa.
But if everyone were self-employed, there would be orders of magnitude more choice if you were in need of a chargeable service. Say, plumbers.
Then the market is essentially diluted, and a couple of things could happen: no plumber can make a living because of the extreme competition (in a world where each plumber is of roughly equal value). Plumbing becomes a cutthroat, penniless business and the world of plumbing self-destructs.
Or, a small number of plumbers are better than the rest, and people learn this and start taking their business to the best plumbers. They get more business, are more profitable, and eventually start having to employ in order to meet demand. Mediocre plumbers are put out of business.
Either way, the dissolution of the wholly self-employed market is inevitable.
Does working at a socially-owned, democratically-run company count as self-employment?
>>705
No, but it sounds better than your typical large corporation.

Except that's not true at all. Control is arbitrarily given on the basis of ownership, not specialized knowledge and definitely not skill. The people "specialized on their field" who "do what they know best" get the short stick invariably. Which is more longer than the stick given to people without specializaed skill; nonetheless they both get shafted.

It's mostly that in practice it's used as an excuse to either exclude other people or actively make their lives worse, in the absence of any philosophically or factually sound argument. As such, it comes off as a sort of view espoused primarily by individuals who are either ignorant (they don't intend to cause damage or understand how it does) or evil (they do).
While there are many genetic predispositions common to certain ethnic populations, melanin level has essentially nothing to do with the value or potential of a human, all other things being equal. That last part is important, because people born into circumstances tend to perpetuate those circumstances unless acted upon by significant outside factors (which is how you get people both into and out of ghettos). If you don't know what it is to be a scientist, how can you be expected to desire to become one, and take any of the necessary steps?
>>828 On the other hand, it's clearly true. Everyone wants to move into our neighborhoods, not the other way around. They move in, crime goes up, we move out, they follow us, crime goes up, we move out, and so on. Ergo, whitey be better. I suspect it's related to our willingness to do basic maintenance.
Japanese are even better then we are from a running basic civilization standpoint, but they mostly keep to themselves these days.
>>831
Because it's not an argument worth countering. It's just deranged rambling. Easy counters to anything like this are abound like dead fish in a bucket. White supremacists arbitrary choose Europe as their root heritage when it's well-established that everyone is from sub-Saharan Africa. White supremacy is also a very American phenomenon - other countries have just as bad a history of racism (ever wondered about the etymology of the word "slave"?) but often without a black person in sight. There is exactly as much "logic" in white supremacist arguments as there is in those of conspiracy theorists, and it's all ignorant bunk.
Yeah, but the hardcore loony left keep sweetening the white supremacy deal. Marry white and have white kids? White supremacy. Math? Science? Success in the field of your choice? White supremacy. Free speech? White supremacy!

Exactly. It's textbook ingroup/outgroup bickering, and especially myopic considering that the American "left wing" actually corresponds to "slightly less right wing" where I'm from.
WAAAAAAAAGH
>>836 nazis are leftists, so the left is already there. National SOCIALISTS, y'know.

( ・-・) You can either be able to create things that advance world civilization, or you can have a huge dick. Your call.
>>849
But what if I don't really care about either of those things?
What if I just want to enjoy life and JUMP IN THE AIR?
( ・-・) I'm always so busy creating great things to advance civilisation, that I never get a chance to use my huge dick.
( ・-・) But they all look alike over there!
( ・-・) "Russian troll" is a compliment.
( ・-・) I don't like tumblr but if all cis white people died I'd only miss like one or two people tops.
( ・-・) People who say "cis white people" are generally terrible company.
( ・-・) I'd probably hate being around any of you in real life.
( ・-・) Other people's skin color, genitals and preference for who to rub those genitals on is really important to me and my Tumblr will tell you about it in great detail.
( ・-・) Polygon has a good-looking design. Too bad the content has always been complete trash and the design is getting long in the tooth.
( ・-・) I’m glad that Kéké is whining about his dick pigeon animations being plagiarized for some mobile game.
( ・-・) Hey now, Kéké is a goddamn treasure.
( ・-・) Though, he does draw the same things too often, yeah, even considering it's animation.
( ・-・) a dozen kids getting shot every few months isn't really a big deal.

( ・-・) SICP is a terrible book for learning anything. It tries to speak about too many topics, and ends up explaining nothing properly.
Behold! The slavic Saudi Arabia with Putin ibn Gebnya as a new king!
I want to start an Esperanto club.
( ・-・) I find the concept of bumsex viscerally repellent.
( ・-・)
( ・-・) Ewwwww.
( ・-・) Exactly!
( ・-・) Poo comes out of there. Nothing should go in!
Japs are aliens, actually the superior deep space civilization brought them to earth around 6000 years ago. Amaterasu and Yamato Takeru are ambassadors from space
so you got the idea what kind of being they are
yes, it seems like that, with chinese being their rival space civilization from the neighbor galaxy
( ・-・)Most people who make a habit of arguing about politics on the internet couldn't pass an actual Turing test, let alone an ideological one.

"Nerds" are repulsive. Bad looks, bad personalities, bad taste. Nerds think they're smarter than they actually are. Nerds like awful media like super hero movies or video games. Nerds let consumerism define their identity.
Nerds get obsessed with countries like Japan even though it's nowhere near as good as they think it is. Paris Syndrome can be applied to other countries too. It's the "things suck here, so surely they must be better elsewhere" kind of mentality. Or maybe people just don't grow up and actually still like cartoons even when they're adults. But I hope that's not the case.
When someone says they're "such a nerd" or something, they usually have a way to show it, don't they? They collect video games. They have a mountain of Xbox discs, or a huge Steam library. Fucking dumb and worthless plastic figures that they paid out the ass for. Or they collect anime DVDs or marvel movies. Or they buy extra hard drives to pirate it from torrent trackers. Sometimes a dude will try and tell other people that a piece of cardboard (from some stupid card game only losers care about) is worth thousands of dollars. In your fucking dreams. Artificial scarcity. And besides, what a fucking dumb investment to make anyway. Anyway, the point I'm trying to make is they think partaking is mass media makes them smart and different from everyone else. As if spending most of your free time on entertainment somehow makes you intelligent. Smart people don't make idiotic financial decisions either.
Then there are the STEM types who study majors where a lot of people work outside of their degree. I'm talking biology or physics. I personally know people with these types of degrees who do not work in the field they studied. If they were so smart, why couldn't they do research and figure out a more economically viable major? Yet these people would always look down on people who did trades, like welding or something. Newflash: Gamestop is retail, not a good career!
And video games. Ick. Don't even get me started. Shit like gamergate just shows how pathetic most gamerdudes are. It's a stupid issue and these guys basically admit that they hate women, but it's more than that. It's that they get upset over made-up internet bullshit about a shallow, consumerism-centric form of leisure/hedonism.
I once went drinking with some people I recently met and this one dude was talking about watching a Twitch stream when he was on an expensive trip. Just staying in the fucking hotel room instead of exploring the country. I called him out on his stupid shit and the other people agreed with me but they wanted me to chill out since they were conflict-avoidant (and I was a bit belligerent because I drank a lot). Imagine paying thousands of dollars to go somewhere cool just to sit on your ass and watch a livestream about video games. None of us hang out with the gamerdude anymore. If, for nothing else, because he's antisocial and doesn't even like hanging out. He'd rather stay indoors and play fucking games. But now I'm good friends with one of the other guys who wasn't into that lame shit though. We get food and drink together and I'm teaching him how to code now.
But you know what? People lump me in with that group of human garbage. As if someone who is passionate about software development is the same as a loser who memorizes trivia about dungeons and dragons or some shit. What the fuck is wrong with people? Don't associate me with that subhuman filth.
Yeah dude, getting a high score in a video game is totally the same as someone who focuses on their career and continued education. We're totally on the same wavelength. Give me a fucking break.
But it's more than the lack of culture or their lack of ties to any important group or community (aside from online shit). The problem is more than the self-centered gluttony. The other issue is how most nerds don't have any sense of morals. Usually atheist, often liberal or egalitarian, pro-degeneracy. Usually cookie cutter reddit views. Pathetic.
（ ㊤ 皿 ㊤） Can you elaborate on that?
( ・-・) Nier Automata's incredibly lenient perfect evade timeframe is there to makeup for the incredibly broken hitboxes that plague this game.
I still love you Nier Automato. Even if you don't want me to play the way I want to.
( ・-・) Some stupid fuck crashed in to the back of my car. I'm angry that it didn't hurt enough for me to call a lawyer and make a quick $100,000.
( ・-・) Textboard culture is more of a millennial thing. Simply put, pretty much everybody here is too young to have ever posted on usenet before AOL was a thing (and if you are, what are you even doing with your life lol). Eternal september is not a solemn memorial, but an internet savvy reference. Only nerds take it seriously.
( ・-・) I hate Sailor Moon.
( ・-・) Remember how frames were bad? Each thing that made them bad has a modern equivalent that is in constant use and is usually even worse. The only thing dropping them accomplished was to modularize the collective antipatterns. i would take the curse of frames back if it meant making the Web plain-jane relatively static HTML navigation again.
( ・-・) Also, I wish my posts in this thread were humorous instead of laughable, but there you have it.
( ・-・) I don't like John Coltrane. His tone is irritating and his solos meander like a junkie trying to talk his way out of an arrest.

( ・-・) I get a boner when a woman touches or even speaks to me.
I'm 16 years old

(・-・) I use FOSS advocacy and privacy as an excuse for being too sensitive to use mainstream social media.
(・-・) I hate most fanbases of things I enjoy and try to avoid them
( ・-・) I’m the idiot who keeps taking the bait.

(・-・) Politically I am an anarchist but in local elections I vote for republicans because democrats are always screaming about taking away what rights we have and regulating everything I do.
(・-・) Ancaps aren't anarchists.
I'm a lesbian
(・-・) One time I got a restaurant toilet clogged and there was no toilet brush. Afraid of anyone seeing it I plunged my hand in there without gloves and unclogged it.
( ・-・) Islam isn't a religion. It's an invasive species.
>>906 Well, it's not a species, it's a religion; and invasive in the same way Christianity or any other religion is
>>907 It's not a religion, it's a fucking death cult created by a pedophile drug addict.
(・-・) One of my old coworkers went trans. He dresses like an upperclass british lady and talks in falsetto, and still looks like the fat walleyed slob he was before, just in a poorly fitting pastel bizcas skirt and jacket outfit.
(・-・) and the makeup. holy shit. Dee Snyder wore it better.

(・-・) I wonder if he cut his dick off yet.

I've never clicked on any of the links in the [Youtube] ☆ QUALITY VIDEOS ☆ [DQN] thread in my 7+ years of visiting
>>918 i think this term should mean like a swarm of locusts, but I'm not sure if it already has a definition or not
>>919 Well done, I don't think it is a word, I made it up and you knew what I meant! You've missed out on a lot of fun in the youtube thread though, I feel enriched as a person from clicking every link ever.
(・-・) I was wandering down a quiet dark alleyway thinking about the delightful quiet thrill of walking down dark alleyways at night, and without thinking I said "mmm, urban" to myself and then thought oh no, I'll have to drink a glass of bourbon later to balance that out...
This site is very fucking comfy.
( ・-・) I used to think people read. I just figured, I read, it's the easiest shit.
( ・-・) By and large, they do not.
( ・-・) I have never seen an internet arguer who brings up the "paradox of tolerance" and has actually understood it. Or the definition of "tolerance", really.
( ・-・) People who anger me with the paradox of tolerance should be forced to watch the South Park episode "Death camp of tolerance."
I printed out a paper mask of Gooigi from Luigi's Mansion 3.
( ・-・) I leave my Christmas decorations up until March, not because I'm lazy, but because it's winter and I'm sad and they're one of the few things that cheer me up
( ・-・) I have a crush on the narrator for Ring Fit Adventure because of this voice clip https://youtu.be/gTpL-UZ8RQQ?t=3029
( ・-・) Good for adreneline, bad for self esteem
( ・-・) Before clicking I thought >>929 meant the goofy-ass ring itself, since that lady only narrates the stretching sections.
( ・-・) Also, you're weird if you crush on anyone in Ring Fit adventure other than the evil hunk dragon. Regardless of your sexual orientation.
( ・-・) I don't even like anonymity anymore, I've just never found a non-anonymous community that I like

( ・-・) The MC is cute, man, you're weird!
( ・-・) I would still team up with you to destroy Allegra stans. Thou shalt not suffer a foot degenerate to live.
( ・-・) Matrices are stupid, and the best character is obviously Honey
( ・-・) I wish I’d learned that I hate programmers when I was still in college and had time to change majors.
( ・-・) Me and my ex gf masturbated in a public park, several times.
( ・-・) They claim they want to hire programmers who don't memorize solutions, but they won't hire me even though I've coded them working compilable and clean-to-read solutions explaining my reasoning every step of the way and establish rapport very quickly and shit.
( ・-・) I truly wasted my life on this. I should've just pursued business and spent my free time playing video games instead.
( ・-・) My hot new tech startup is only successful because I get suckers to write all my code for free by pretending it's a hiring test.
( ・-・) It's really awkward how they try to buddy up to everyone in the office when we have no intent of employing them from the start.
( ・-・) Early Simpsons isn't actually that good, but they did know what they were about.
( ・-・) Remember the family jewels, son
( ・-・) People give the U.S. shit for its lack of public transportation but a lot of that comes from a relatively brief period where our self-styled elites were monomaniacally obsessed with generations-long turtling out nuclear warfare, which turns out to be little different from your generations-long strategy for turtling out biological warfare, too, so we've mostly just accepted the sprawl as "good actually".
( ・-・) Then they just kind of dropped it because they're pretty addicted to urban high life, but the Pentagon does still encourage it in policy discussions.
( ・-・) I still don't really know what a period is

( ・-・) Just spent a week alone in a nice hotel. Didn't jack off even once.
( ・-・) First time I just didn't feel like it for that long.
( ・-・) I realize "science" (actually media) promised you that certain tech would be invented by now, but it was just a bad prediction. It is past time you laughed at its folly, not weep that the impossible failed.
( ・-・) Sometimes I wish I could make a career out of nitpicking bad translations done by amateurs. I'd be very good at it. But there's already no fucking money in translation.

( ・-・) A little boy says "I'm Batman!" and it's cute.
( ・-・) Same kid says "I'm a girl." and its hormone shots time.
( ・-・) This world is fucking insane.
>>966
"hormone shots" betrays how little you know about the subject
( ・-・) Fuck "supporting the artists". People are all like "but no one will entertain us if they're not paid" but bored minds will always find ways to amuse themselves without anyone needing paid artists, and if anything will probably find more productive outlets for that if not constantly fed unrealistic commercial fantasies that mostly serve to poison our views of the world.
( ・-・) roko's basilisk is just pascal's wager for people who own funko pops
I find less and less of a logical argument against pedophilia. I would still shame anyone who did the behavior, since most people of that age would not have the mental capabilities to consent. There are many of lower IQ that we do allow to breed with whoever they want, though, so that curses that understanding of it. One would also argue that combining an individual that could not reciprocate the emotional development that would happen from oldest to youngest would also be a reason why such a relationship would go against the point of a relationship, but that feels weak and soon to crumble. I need to re-define my ethics on an almost daily basis.
