Then why are you continuing to argue that it IS bipolar?

Learn to read. I’m done. You made your point and I respectfully disagree, you suit yourself and keep pretending treating someone based on their skin color, sexuality or race isn’t discrimination isn’t discrimination. Either you don’t know what the word means or you’re so privileged you’re blind to the fact.

I’m not pretending anything and you’re putting words in my mouth I never said or intentionally misenterpreting my words and I’m done with this bad faith argument of yours.

I’m not Mike Johnson and acknowledging discrimination doesn’t make me privileged. You can discriminate all you want it doesn’t make it any less discrimination. Nor does it make discrimination against someone even if they might be privileged any less discrimination.

If you really think someone who just happens to have been born those things and gets the worst treatment than someone who, say is, POC and/or LGBTQ, who is better off than someone who is homeless for example you’re delusional and extremely discriminative. It largely concerns all of those things, but it’s not as bipolar as american identity politics makes it up to be, it’s more about class politics and politics essentially and way more subjective and individual than you’re making it out to be - which is exactly my point, not a single one of any gender, sexuality, class, anything is a fucking monolith you should discriminate against as one. But you’re free to downvote instead of discussing.

But that’s at least partially my point. That’s discrimination, not all white people, not all straight people, not all men, are privileged and if you think that you’re reinforcing the same discrimation you’re supposedly against. Sure, there might be, proportionally, because of historical reasons/historical discrimination, more “straight white men” who are more privileged than most, but that’s more about politics and thinking that way you are already discriminating against people just for being born the skin color they’re born with, the sexuality and gender they’re born with which we all know we have no control over. And that’s fucked up.

If you really think there are no white or straight people or men that don’t have the same privileges as some piece of shit like this guy or even a bunch of minority people I really cannot trust you’re arguing in good faith. Class etc, privilege isn’t all about the color of your skin or sexuality. Things are more subjective and inidividual than that.

I agree it makes this turd of a human being more of a hypocrite and I don’t disagree with the comment I replied to entirely. I just don’t see why there is a need to discriminate against an entire group of people just for the way they’re born. I thought fighting against that very notion was the exact point.

e: Maybe I’m misunderstanding your point and possibly not explaining my point well (I am veeery tired), but anyway. Just because Mike Johnson is an asshole doesn’t mean people should paint an entire gender or race or anything as assholes is my point. I get that the OC is somewhat sarcastic, but still.

I don’t see a need to bring race into this.

Have a snickers, buddy.

No judgement, ceramics is for everybody!

Honestly a latex body suit seems easier to clean too, though I have no experience with that. Just seems you could rinse yourself with a hose after.

Not really commenting on whether Altman got paid enough or not, but “well he’s not fucking homeless” isn’t really a sensible argument in any conversation about compensation.

And you think if nudity wasn’t a taboo people wouldn’t be self conscious about anything (ie. their bodies)? Especially considering the acoustics in most showers (hint:even the people who normally can’t hear you talk in your home can hear you sing in the shower). Especially considering people are self conscious as hell about their bodies even with clothes on?

A car is a much more private and safe space than a shower.

Not being a dick, just curious what your train of thought here is.

I love that the brain still, relies on real-life data on the world It creates

Yeah me too, totally, you fucking psycho. That’s the best part of nightmares…

Also:

Quieter than Silence are sublime, they have several shows on Youtube and they’re all different with different guest musicians and they’re all amazing.

and

Özgür Baba - Dertli Dolap, Çay Taşıand this full show: at the Franciscan Church.

Ooh I really like this one and the Le Lab Virgin Radio one, especially Opposite Ways. So much better than the album versions.

Off the top of my head: Parliament Funkadelic - The Mothership Connection, Live In Houston 1976.

That’s my go to. An amazing show and never fails to get me in a good mood or cheer me up. Parliament Funkadelic is magic.

You can talk circles around justifying this idiocy, it’s not going to make this clout chasing vandalism stunt any more clever. If justifying some kind of funding is what you want to talk about you’re free to do so, funding has never been something that stops art from existing, but that discussion is absolutely irrelevant to this thing.

Yeah, because art clearly hasn’t existed when there’s strife, crises or people are poor or suffering :D

There is a massive difference between critique and telling people not to do anything. You enjoy that strawman as well. Jesus.

Making things worse is not a thing to be commended just for the effort, real life isn’t kindergarten, you don’t get a participation trophy. The road to hell is paved is good intentions and useful idiots do more harm than good.

Because wiping your ass on the entire movement is so much better than actually, really doing something! Have fun feeling high and mighty without doing anything useful.

Have fun beating that strawman…

Only extreme things make it into the media (sadly). Anything short of blowing up the pipeline won’t get them media attention.

I’m really not arguing against the obvious futility of fighting against these giants, but I mean, we’re here literally talking about people vandalizing paintings which honestly has absolutely fucking nothing to do with the oil industry and it’s hailed as some big statement. It’s a sad reality we live in, but things like this aren’t making anything better.
