Bucharest is pretty dang cool but it's also a monument to Ceaușescu's megalomania.
I don't buy that the current way society is run is the only way it can be run either, but falling into moral relativism is largely what got us into this mess to begin with. There's an immense God-shaped hole in the heart of the West - in each and every one of us as well - and we're still trying to pick up the pieces.
We literally had no emergency supplies for epidemics because the previous POTUS was so goddamn lazy he didn't refill that shit, forcing everyone to use shitty masks TO THIS DAY, creating the 'ANYTHING TO KEEP GRAMMA FROM DYING' cope that increased the opposition to any actual quarantine procedure leading us to this dumbass bullshit today.
I really want Acadeima to be like this tbh. The illusion of being intellectually superior is gone, so why not destroy the illusion of being eloquent as well. And then being actually smart?
It's been my experience with leftists that they all collapse pretty hard if they're challenged and can't use some form of power -- systemic power, institutional power, crying to HR, etc -- to suppress any opposition. It comes from the pseudo-religious thought processes that modern leftism relies upon. You know, "form conclusion, conclusion never changes, work backwards from it to find justifications."

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASED
except people bitched and whined that China didn't do more to stop the spread despite invoking some of the most totalitarian policies in doing so.
I mean that's the logical consequence of libertarianism. Why shouldn't a group of dog fuckers be allowed to found their own community where you can marry a dog? Historically libertarianism was a synonym for that sort of degeneracy.
Theoretically it's a socioeconomic system where you have more or less total freedom (except for a tiny government that makes sure you do) and all the good ideas win and then capitalism makes everyone besides the lazy and stupid people rich (who get rich anyway because private charities or something). In reality it's a heavily idealistic system that the elites like because it lets them push degeneracy, import hordes of immigrants, and give corporations handouts in name of "deregulation".
Bro, look up a paper in a field you're interested in and email the scientist who wrote it. Chances are they're just another dude like you, and believe me, they're all totally happy to talk about their work (sans political and academic faggotry) to someone interested. I'm friends with a dude who holds a PhD, he's got a LOT to say about the Chinese and none of it's nice. Also friends with another dude who studied med in current era, he'll tell you straight up how much he hates blacks and how much time they wasted in classes on stupid black awareness shit. I'm not a scientist but I've got a degree in it, every draft version of my student papers reads like that shitpost in a few ways, plenty of notes saying "fuckstick et al. attempted to demonstrate xyz, but they're wrong and gay because they didn't account for abc, possibly because they were busy thinking about cock". There's plenty of based scientists to go around, it's just the handful of fags that the media likes shitting it up for the rest of us.
Agreed. That's the point of this site after all.
Yeah, I deserved that... Still a funny as fuck mental image though.
They really do think the Truckers are as stupid as their biases say they are. It's glorious.
This is what I am talking about. It’s wrong. You can be a libertarian and think it’s wrong to fuck a dog. You don’t have to throw your hands up in the air and call yourself a radical subjectivist.
