Postivist? Are those the Twitter armchair warriors or something?No, I failed to list outrage warriors. See post 11 for what a postivist is.
What's the boundary for thisI'd define a hardcore antitheist as either someone who thinks what Enver Hoxha did in Albania or Leninists like him were based or someone like 2004 Sam Harris when he said theism needs to go extinct or humanity will.
Not sure if I'd fall under hardcore anti-theist or not. I'm generally opposed to organized religion, but I don't really care if individual people are religious or not as long as they aren't judgemental or pushy about their faith.It doesn't sound like it. You could fall under Postivist or Pseudoskeptick but I don't know what goes on inside your head or your posting history all that well.
Where is the downside?
Lots of people who post here aren't eligible or think that removing some of these groups would harm the world. Namely options 1, 3, 9 and 12.
I was bullied as a kid, and the only advice i got was "just ignore them, and they will get bored. They just want to get a reaction, so don't do anything"Christ, even our middle school guidance counselor pointed out that ignoring bullies didn't work and she was scum that did a shit job protecting her students once she decided to retire.
That doesn't work for shit, all they see from that is an easy target.
The only response bullies understand is extreme violence
Question, what's a positivist?https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positivism
So, the world gets better and we get a big chunk of money? Wheres the downside?Lots of people who post here aren't eligible or think that removing some of these groups would harm the world. Namely options 1, 3, 9 and 12.
the band?No, MAGA.
What's a wumbo?Wumaos are the online hypernationalists for China. Like Cyrus Janssen and our own whatabout wolf.
Mix is here?No but he used to go on amd on about great streaming is and I can't miss an opportunity to point out how useless he was.
I think they are scared of being a one trick pony. So they stop it before they finish the story. We don't want to be known just for this. Lets branch out do something different. We will come back to it eventually. Close to 20 years soon. It's time to come back. Really what should happen is they remake the series with current tech and finish it out and move on.If they're scared of being a one trick pony they shouldn't rely on Steam for fucking everything.
They probably don't even like that because their hard-earned tax dollars are housing and feeding them. With these types of people you have to always assume they lack a lot of human traits and the basic ability to empathize.It would be a way to concern troll when people call them out for their degenerate behavior.
I been a substitute teacher since 2017 and I seen a lot. There are two kinds of bully's...at least in the most basic level, those who hurt others because they are hurt, and those who think they can do whatever they want, because there parents make them feel that way.At a certain point the latter types of bullies need to be thrown in juvie.
These days parents give hell for any single thing, these days kids can break things and not be punished out of fear of the parents...these days there has to be direct violence and threats before ANY thing is done and sometimes that's STILL not enough because they are so afraid of being sued.
I saw one kid outright brag because his dad was a cop and his mom was a lawyer that he could speed through town and just flash a badge and he would not be charged.
There are many problems but a big problem is that so many parents outright think them and there kids are superior to everyone around them.
The problem has nothing to do with schools lacking resources or funding and everything to do with schools being terrified of liability and litigation while non-tenured staff are being paid so increasingly little that they have no reason to care about their job.If liability is the big concern then they shouldn't allow bullying to the point of suicide. Now they all deserve to be sued into the fucking ground and they deserve cancelation far more than a celebrity who posts racist shit on Twitter.
My mother's been working in a well-funded district for years where you'd expect there to be no problems, yet they're facing the same issues as schools nationwide. I consistently hear the most insane stories you can imagine. Students are borderline illiterate, can't communicate, and are outrageously disrespectful towards their peers and staff alike. Teachers have to walk on eggshells during conferences or behavioral meetings because parents lose their minds at the simple thought of their children not being viewed as anything other than a well-behaved genius.
Looks like our reaction worked a lot better.
As someone who has had meltdowns here I can tell you that snarky comments like that when someone is enraged is only going to fuel the flames and keep them going until they get warned/suspended. And if that's the end goal it's not becoming nor is it a flex.
LMAO.Apology accepted
Oh no I said you make a lot of shitty posts in a thread where multiple other people are pointing out the same thing and apparently lived rent free in your head for two years due to that.
So that's two interactions, maybe if you keep searching you can find more! For what it's worth I'm sorry if that one-off mostly joking remark bothered you that much.
Again, citation needed.Search log for Chiropractors are woo woo
I'm even looking on the log site to make sure I'm not crazy and that's literally the only interaction we've had, and I only posted three times in that topic. One of which was quoting someone else, one of which was asking you what the fuck you were talking about because I had quite literally never heard the term "wokescold" and the other was stating that you were ranting and rambling.
I think you're confused and mixing me up with someone else but hey you're welcome to provide evidence of your claim
the guy started the dumpster fire with his first postThe best reaction to a dumpster fire is to ignore it and let it burn itself out. He started the dumpster fire/meltdown by posting that nonsense yes. And the rest of you kept it going by dogpiling on him. Throwing insults at someone having a meltdown is only gonna make the meltdown worse. If you don't want someone who made a shitpost to keep shitposting just walk the fuck away from a shot post. Feeling the need to win an argument on a dying message board by getting the last word isn't the flex you think it is.
Again, citation needed.Yes I remember that topic where you put your head in the sand and acted like outrage warriors didn't exist so you use it as an excuse to bash me.
I've talked to you like once, dude.
Specifically it was a topic where you were going on about hipsters and wokescolds and whatever the fuck else. That's the only interaction I can remember having with you, late last year.
Citation needed.This topic is a pretty damn good microcosm of your posting history. You've harrased me multiple times over the past two years and go into topics looking to instigate shit.
You have no idea who I am or my posting history, clearly.
Who's virtue signaling?And you're adding fuel to the fire in doing so. Murphiroth in particular has years of posting little but insults at other users.
We're insulting them.
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d94dde2e.jpgIf you want him to stop posting you need to stop stirring the pot. Harassing everyone you disagree with isn't the virtue signal you think it is.
I guess it depends on if they're sociopaths or not.If they show no remorse they should be shunned. You see these assholes out in public like at a restaurant the entire restaurant should just get up and leave.
In the 4th grade I was playing a game with a girl at lunch to see if we could throw a nickel in the other's mouth. I threw one on hers and she started gagging and swallowed it, then had to go to the hospital. The teacher told me in front of the class later I better hope she's ok.
Anyway I still feel guilty about that and she lived.
What you are calling for is the very definition of bullying: physical threats and intimidation to make one feel powerless.Sometimes the only way to correct bad behavior is to turn the tables and give bad actors a taste of their own medicine. Bullies should not be treated better than their victims or else they are going to see the system as endorsing their cruelty. It happened to me in middle school. If you think ratting on them helps it doesn't. The problem of waiting for adults to turn their backs is far far more amplified from snitching than it ever could be from simply being checked into a wall or restrained. If a kid gets violent with another kid an adult should restrain them and if they get a little roughed up in the process they brought it on themselves. You can't just sit back and watch kids beat on other kids and not restrain them. That opens up lawsuits more tenfold than what I am proposing.
What makes you think that will work anyway? All the bully does is wait until one of these child-beating rent-a-cops isn't around.
That aside, it is simply not practical to have adults roughing up kids. Who would you even want doing that job? It will lead to more and more violence and abuse, not to mention the lawsuits.
you guys are acting weird & angry af toward this throwaway comment i made which is only intended to be critical of all the shit teachers out there who exploit the few good ones to get raises at their jobs where they underperform in more & more w/ each passing decade. as if i said that believing teachers should be paid like dirt lmfao yall are always so eager to fling your own shit in order to virtue-signal at othersLook I know what it's like to be dogpiled on by posters acting in bad faith as well as anyone on here. There's an argument to be made about bad teachers slipping through the cracks and getting tenure when they should be handed a pink slip. Making snarky comments about teacher salaries doesn't really help the discussion. If you want to argue that tenure should be forfeit in cases like this that would be one thing but jabs about teachers not getting money because the system sucks rancid milk chunks isn't helping.
fr, learn to interact w/ others instead of going immediately hostile ffs. no wonder ppl hate this board
Because hugging and throwing them against a wall are your only choices.Detention does not work
Seriously, you want adult rent-a-cop types in schools roughing up kids? Take a minute to think about how that will be abused, and the problems it will create.
You need a cure that isn't worse than the disease.
School cops who have permission to treat kids in a way that causes them pain?Bullies need to be dealt with harshly. You can't just hug them tight enough and hope they'll turn over a new leaf.
I thought the idea was to cut the amount of bullying, not increase it.
I know people like to think everything was better back in the day, but the availability and convenience of media objectively wasn't. Right now almost every movie, every song and every game you can think of is available without even getting off your couch, and in most cases for a lot less money than you'd have spent decades ago. Spotify is $11 a month... that wouldn't have bought me 1 CD when I was a kid.Streaming is superior to CD ownership because the market place hasn't been carved up by major music distributors who force you to subscribe to the company streaming service to get access to your favorite artists who are spread out amongst multiple companies because artists change their employers.
