There was some talk recently in r/Greece about cheating in online university exams started because some jackass professor was so fucking devastated that people did “well” on his class (42% passed which is much better than usual) that he had to whine about cheating to a major newspaper. For some reason this subject was deemed worthy of being published but whatever, I digress. There were some weird fucking nerds on reddit who were whining about how employers will avoid employing people who graduated around 2021 because they will know they may have cheated on some test. I can’t believe there’s people so naive, but then again it is reddit.
Understandable, if they did that they would have to have a criticisms of the criticisms of the criticisms of the labour theory of value page.
Isn’t it funny how all these people have all these super important and super complex worldviews which are so extremely cultivated and worked out and yet they never translate to anything in the real world?
People in the imperial core study philosophy and somehow don’t read Marx?
#JustAngloThings
In most of Europe they still read Marx a lot.
This person clearly hates homeless people so why is she even volunteering? If that is even true anyways.
There’s already a place for that, it’s r/MensLib, and it’s kinda silly sometimes but it’s well meaning and positive. It’s so positive that you feel bad saying anything even about the kinda dumb stuff over there. This is just weird lol
Imo stuff like this is really great for breaking stereotypes! Although it shouldn’t be necessary…
Look, I am NOT saying we should forcibly castrate people, but…
The whole post is wild, like it unironically argues that men invented patriarchy because they didn’t want to be treated like lambs in farms lmao. Also the fucking scary focus on “productivity”… And all the weird evo psych and calls for eugenics and “weeding out low quality men” in the comments… What is that place exactly?
You gotta hear Greek chuds ranting about how when “we” were building the Parthenon the Germans/Europeans in general were eating acorns on trees. It’s always about acorns and trees for some reason.
I joked about it once and some aussie nazi got upset and started telling me I hate white people, I told him I am literally white so he replied “no you’re not, you’re Greek” and I’m like, bruh.
Wow, you’re not joking… The comments are reaaaaally bad. Someone is genuinely concerned about white genocide. I replied to one of these people, let’s see where this goes…
But it IS a medical issue for many people. Of course people can chose what they want to do with their bodies and disparaging them doesn’t work. However many people are trying to “overcorrect” by pretending that abnormal weight is actually good for you or that nothing you ever try will help you deal with it and I really don’t think it is helpful at all. My cousin has struggled with obesity for a long time, at some point he had to be operated because it was damaging his body. He is doing better than back then now but it’s really not that great, and his learning difficulties plus a mostly unhelpful family in that regard are making it harder. I don’t think this kind of approach is necessarily helpful.
Fuck off SJW, you’re making us look bad.
Also why are they angry at menslib again? It’s usually pretty wholesome, inoffensive and non confrontational. It’s also literally what some of these people pretended to be complaining about, “but why aren’t feminists talking about men’s issues?”. Well there you fucking go, they are.
I swear, if people keep unironically using leftist organizing terminology and comparisons to labor movement history to describe forum shit I’m gonna lose it.
This shows with some fluctuations that after 2010 there was a marked increase: https://www.statista.com/statistics/232383/gender-split-of-us-computer-and-video-gamers/#:~:text=The statistic shows the gender,increase over the previous year.&text=The global gaming industry has,fast pace in recent years.
Of course the issue with this statistic is that it seems to only take into account the people who have played some video game, whereas some other statistics seem to imply there is a much more significant gap in people who identify as gamers, which is shrinking too. But yeah, the divide before 2010 was greater in general, not that it was as big a deal as they pretend anyways.
The issue is that everything about consoles is expensive. I’m not a hardcore gamer or whatever so I’m not gonna spend a few hundred euros for a console only to then have to buy every game I want to play. Like, yeah, maybe I will be slightly limited in terms of what games I can play in my computer compared to consoles, but it’s a worthwhile tradeoff for not having to pay. This is why I don’t think consoles are as accessible. It’s like, PC is good for people who want to spend either 0 or thousands of dollars and consoles are for people who want to spend hundreds of dollars.
It’s not that there weren’t any women playing videogames, but there definitely weren’t as many before because they were heavily marketed to boys. But in recent years there’s definitely been a lot more women.
PC gaming is the People’s gaming because it doesn’t require purchasing anything you wouldn’t need to have anyways and you can pirate shit very easily, change my mind.
(Of course this doesn’t apply if you’ve spent 10k on a dedicated gaming rig, or if you own any of these cringey mice with a billion buttons and flashing lights lol)
I mean, why is every chud freaking out about Portland being the worst place in the world? Suddenly everyone is attacking portland for some reason and I don’t really understand it because I don’t even know what a Portland is lol
