Lol the bullshit king is back. Yes, a black aggrievement site. 

 

 

 because this stuff is totally on par with priveledged people complaining about Lizzo playing a flute no one knew existed for 1 minute and claiming it was a deliberate move to destroy history. 

 

The critique of aggrievement is its crafting far reaching 'conspiracies' for lack of a better word. Not factual injustices bad policies. Nice try, Boomer. 

 

You're still as full of shit as ever. 

It's some kid's batshit Marxist liberation blog. Go read their manifesto. Did you stumble across the quote on Reddit and thought it sounded good or do you actually read blogs like this? No really? 

And I could fill up this thread just by citing the daily race-baiting nonsense  Joy-Ann Reid says on Twitter. Here she is this morning saying it's a racist dog whistle for DeSantis to warm people not to loot because people in Florida are well-armed.  

I'm looking at the photos of how green Flordia is compared to the Mad Max brown wasteland of California these days and I'm thinking the humidity and roving meth cannibals might not be so bad.

Wtf is your opening statement? 

 

So, this is the Daily Wire aggrievement thread, I see. Cool stuff, bro. 

I looked it up and ironically he got it from a 5-year-old article on a black grievance site called AbolitionJournal.org.

Add in that no one on this board complains more about racial politics than Remy himself, and no political side complains more about identity politics than progs, and this thread is big a chef's kiss.

Do you honestly think Bayonetta is a big AAA franchise for the holiday season?

It sold over a million on Switch.

There should be never be space for indies.

But yeah, lackluster show.

Don't they love Valorant and Apex Legends over there?

I don't know. I've been away from gaming lately so I didn't even know what Valorant was until I just looked it up.

A shooter becomes the fastest selling game of all time in Japan? That's a twist.

opps wrong thread

Maybe if you didn't primarily game on a gay handheld made for kids and keep falling for the same Nintendo trash series every time you'd enjoy gaming again. Just saying. 

lol I wish it were just about the hardware. Konami's dead, Capcom and Nintendo are stuck in loop making rehashes, Suda doesn't know what to do next, Kojima's making Fed Ex sims for some reason, and not to be unkind but Square's never been that good to begin with.

dunno about that. gonna' eventually have to do something real.

Not looking good. Less than $1B allocated in the fake energy bill for HALEU development. 

I haven't played a game since Metroid Dread last year and that September lineup isn't helping. Splatoon's single-player campaign really needs to be fleshed out. At least let the player carry more than one weapon at a time so they can improv more.

It was 114 here in the Bay and my AC just couldn't keep up. Nasty as hell.

The detailed projections I have seen show little to no impact either way. 

 

It's just helping Americans.

Then you exist in a very small media bubble, but that's been obvious from the start.

The Wall Street Journal's editorial board, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, Larry Summers (Clinton's Treasury Sec and Obama's NEC director), and Jason Furman (Obama's chair of the CEA have all said it's significantly inflationary.

- Penn Wharton predicts the plan could cost more than $1T.  One trillion. They also calculate that 56% of the debt forgiveness will be given to people earning $82K or more, and 80% will be given to people earning $50K or above. 

- Further, loan repayments have been put in hold since the opening days of the pandemic, so they haven't been lowering the discretionary income of burrowers during the pandemic. The Dems could simply have continued loan forbearance until the economy is stabilized.

- Economists who state the Dems' plan won't increase inflation are almost all relying on the assumption that loan repayments would resume in January. Would anyone like to bet on that happening given how volatile the economy is? And on top of that we lose the deflationary power of resuming loan repayments that would occur if the debt wasn't forgiven.   

- It does absolutely nothing to solve the skyrocketing cost off tuition, which has been little more than a scam to transfer wealth from young adults to wealthy libs and progs working in academia.

- It's grossly unfair to taxpayers who paid back their student debts or never took them out to begin with. Remember it's not debt forgiveness, it's debt transference to the taxpayers. 

- Even the WaPo's editorial board came out against it. 

This plan is just more than banana republic vote buying like the fake Inflation Reduction Act. 

Dems have become plain vile. As a Sikh you should be utterly ashamed of yourself for allowing yourself to become a mindless DNC company man.

Otherwise hope everything's well.

This is what I was looking for. This one I will research. If that data holds, this is an important argument. I wouldn't have thought they'd be so close. Really interesting.

Boston Globe - Media Bias/Fact Check (mediabiasfactcheck.com)

 

High factual reporting. Left-Center.

 

You're flailing.  I'm using the NBER.  Meanwhile, your main source is Brian Deese. This isn't even a fair "debate", and I feel bad for you.

 

National Bureau of Economic Research | NBER

 

Discredit them with valid citation.

Now you're using your fake fact-checker to make an argument from authority for using a lefty news site as an argument from authority. Meanwhile you still can't simply site the statute or ordinance that makes NBER the "official" determinate.

Do you have a source saying otherwise? I have seen no indicator they are a left leaning org. I have only seen sources saying the opposite, indicating  a middle slant.

The only source you've sited a biased and therefore fake fact-checking site.

"The private organization that the federal government has empowered to designate recessions"

Another argument from authority using a lefty news site.

How has the federal government empowered NBER to determine recessions? Is there a statute? What? Do you even have any idea?

If you’ve been keeping up with the news honey, you’d know pretty much every company reported record profits the last year or two with CEO pay far outpacing that of the average worker.  
 

You’re just sucking at that corporate teet and still think Reganomics works. 

Yet you struggle to even post basic hard data. Why is that, honey?

Abortion Worldwide 2017: Uneven Progress and Unequal Access (guttmacher.org)

Now you're flipflopping again. Did you lie about knowing or not knowing? It's now one of the other.

And don't do that bullshit where you cite a 68-page article and then ask me to go read it an find the info for you. Get real. Stop being lazy and posting a list of articles you found on the internet that you haven't even read. That's such a shit tactic.

My original claim, which you doubted, has not been refuted. Abortions primarily have negative outcomes, and are an important facet of healthcare.

Abortions have kill 60,000,000 children in the US alone since 1973. Is that a negative health outcome? Because to the pro-life side it's the greatest episode of mass murder in history, and you ignoring the argument shows you won't debate in good faith.

Or how about all the companies given free money with PPP loans that cut jobs, bought back stocks, and are still raising prices? E.G. Airline companies? All while still cancelling flights. 

Great, give us real data like this instead of arguments from authority you found on some ransom lefty site. This isn't hard kids.

Just now, Ike said:

There fixed it.

I win.

Post above you about a nearly 300% YoY profit increase and a 74% quarterly increase in profit but this isn’t about corporate greed at all.  

No source. You may be right but the way you argue is pretty sloppy.

Just now, Ike said:

I said he’s speaking at CPAC and this is a direct quote from the guy. Nice trying to argue semantics instead of calling out racism. Wouldn’t expect anything less for you.

It's right there in the title.

I didn’t say he said it speaking there. He is slotted to speak at CPAC though and said this earlier in the week with no mentioning of cancelling. Not surprised though since the GOP is just fascism jr. 

It's right there in the title.
