Would people seriously prefer America being a Russian vassal over America being run by the left?


Pretty sure there are polls where self-identified Republicans now have a more favorable view of Vladimir Putin than they do of Nancy Pelosi

Its started, but just the beginning. A bunch of Baron Mordo has surely trapped Strange now! The Ancient One is in danger! Oh wait no!! Amazing art though!

Theres a huuuge chunk of connected Strange Tales Dr Strange stories coming up soon in the order though. Must be some kind of grander adventure.

The art is really the greatest part of early Strange.


Whats really jarring about these early comics is how astonishingly misunderstood science is in the mind of Stan Lee. He could easily just handwave advanced stuff away, but he just has to try to justify it in the dumbest possible ways (Magneto is so powerful that he can magnetize wood; Hulk can double-jump because his legs are powerful enough to push off thin air; Iron Mans entire power source is transistors.)

Ditko clearly has influence on whats written in his stuff because its so much better.

As someone who is reading through 1960s Marvel Comics, the difference between comics he worked on and comics he didnt are night and day. Amazing Spider-Man is unparalleled in the 60s Marvel lineup.

Also the funny thing about merit is that pretty much no one in the history of anything has been hired because they were the best person for the job.

There is no objective best person for most jobs. In most cases, you get hired because youre a qualified enough applicant and they dont want to bother continuing to search.

Either black people are dumb or worse than white people in some way when it comes to education, or there is something that we as a society are doing wrong. Some flaw that disadvantages black people as a whole.


The specific way you framed this makes it kind of both I think.

Black kids lag behind other races in education because they disproportionately live in poorer areas, which have poorer public education.

Its a REALLY vicious cycle. Its by no means exclusive to black kids, but yeah, public education is woefully failing kids whose parents cant afford better.

There are some real easy ways to reduce poverty, we just choose not to do them <_<

Any political system where corporations can legally buy off politicians through donations is doomed to result in unethical practices that perpetuate a system of extreme wealth inequality.

How can it be racism if you would be admitting students whose races you do not know?


Because such a system disproportionately rewards students from better financial backgrounds.

And in America, black families are disproportionately from poorer financial backgrounds.

So you perpetuate the cycle of black people being an underclass, a situation that was created by whites people in the first place


Corrik, please tell me you read this post and understand the argument.

Yes. I just disagree with it.


Specifically on which point does the logic fail for you? Blind applications disproportionately benefit kids from financially stable families, or black families being disproportionately less financially stable?

Yeah, I know that I would personally like it, but I saw guys like Pentagon and while I love him, I have to go "Will girlfriend like Pentagon if he is licking his opponent's blood?" Basically, I guess, I just need to know if the quality of venue is good (important indicator for Indy wrestling) and if they get too hardcore sometimes.


They get hardcore and there could be blood, but they dont cross the TV-14 line.

I disagree that race should be used in any form, same with sex or other characteristics.

Jobs should go to the best qualified. Admission slots should go to those who are most deserving.

Characteristics of applicants shouldn't matter, and to be honest, shouldn't even be allowed to be asked or compiled.

It is no different than discriminating by race.


What happens if you do all that but still end up in a society where black people are significantly worse off, in a society that is proven to be racist by study after study?
