Autoethnographies are the final form of female academic solipsism and navel gazing."I'm an academic because I write about myself as an academic for (faux) journals that legitimate (faux) academic work."

Man, I really hate this kind of stuff. What is the deal with Korean chicks btw? They are some of the most privileged people in this country, yet they can be some of the most obnoxious SJWs with a massive chip on their shoulder about white people (Sarah Jeong, anyone?) East Asians are better off than whites on a whole host of measures of life quality. I'm certainly not the first to notice that SJWism is a way for elites to punch down while deluding themselves into thinking that they're punching up.

I think 80% of Koreans are Californians or Californian emigrants so there's that too

Let me tell you something, dingleberry.

Michelle Malkin got fired from YAF for her support of Nick Fuentes (the "Groyper War" guy).

I'm not going to get my political leadership from a mouthy early 20s guy who rarely looks into the camera, but I fully support his effort in giving Kirk and TPUSA hell.

 

[CiG]

who rarely looks into the camera

What the fuck?

 

[Dak]

What the fuck?

Every time I see clips of him he's mostly looking off to the side at his script or cue card or whatever.

This is so boomer I don't even know how to respond.

 

[Einherjar86]

“OK boomer.”

 

[CiG]

Where were you when I needed you an hour ago?

OK boomer.

I haven't noticed that from what I've seen of him on his own show, but in his interview with Jesse Lee Peterson I noticed that he failed to give consistent eye contact while speaking almost the entire time, and I'm an autist that usually doesn't even pick up on social tells like that. BETA MALE

 

[CiG]

People who use cues and scripts tend to stare directly at the camera because that's where they put them (also teleprompters are a classic example), he looks off to his left because that's where his stream chat is, that's where the superchats are, etc. If you watch any amount of his stuff it's blatantly obvious what he says is off the cuff.

BEEETA! I haven't watched the JLP interview yet though.

 

[CiG]

Just saw this recent upload. He looks at the camera a lot, looks to the left when he's reading his chat, nothing bizarre about it. Also lmao JLP is kinda denouncing groypers now, saying they have no right to ask questions at the events or whatever.

Yeah he is another grifter living behind a screen. At least Alex Jones will show up shirtless with a bullhorn to back up his grifting.

@CiG I haven't seen any more than clips, but he's not doing or saying anything new per se. He's just saying it to a demographic who hasn't been paying attention long enough to know this.

I think his point is that Barr’s “fax” are little more than boilerplate invective, easily reworded to fit another perspective.

There’s very little that’s factual about that speech.

I'm flattered that you took my half-assed reply, commensurate to the half-assed argument you posted, so seriously.

Naturally, though, you chose to ignore the mention of wealth inequality...

View attachment 22398

...cause you think that's fine (or, as Barr would put it, part of “the proper balance of freedom and order necessary for healthy development of natural civil society”). So why bother arguing.

Two things generally: I think where some of the disagreement is is in what constitutes "progressive" or "conservative". Strictly ideologically speaking, not only do these terms not neatly map onto the US political parties, they don't even apply to the majority of Americans. What Barr is referencing, in my opinion, is the conservative focus on systems as opposed to outcomes. It's Kant v Mill until all NE/W European stock die out.

Secondly, of course an outcome that can occur is wealth inequality, which by itself without further qualifiers is of no consequence. In this case one might complain about "extreme" wealth inequality and start talking about the 1%. Except who is and isn't in the 1% changes over time, and most of the unequal gains since the bank bailouts have been to the .1%. Does that mean there is a systems problem? Maybe (yes). But progressives can't approach it from that direction and so you get San Francisco.

That's probably true (nobody is really doing anything new in politics), I don't particularly care as I'm not a TrueFan™ just following for the carnage. However it's blatantly retarded what you said about looking off-screen to his cue cards/script and I just wanted to point that out. Either you're very unfamiliar with casual livestreaming or you're being uncharitable on purpose.

Both.

The spaces have gentle names: The reflection room. The cool-down room. The calming room. The quiet room.

But shut inside them, in public schools across the state, children as young as 5 wail for their parents, scream in anger and beg to be let out.

The students, most of them with disabilities, scratch the windows or tear at the padded walls. They throw their bodies against locked doors. They wet their pants. Some children spend hours inside these rooms, missing class time. Through it all, adults stay outside the door, writing down what happens.

This is child abuse. No surprise it's occurring in Illinois/Chicago.
