If all you're going to wish for is shit that will just better you financially then why not just cut out the middleman and just take the money?

You become a billionaire and you have kids. Your kid gets cancer.

The genie allows you to do anything having a billion dollars allows you to do plus a bunch of metaphysical shit that allows you to do things NO humans can get to do.

The genie is objectively better.

Assuming I can use the genie to wish for stuff, including food, video games, and everything else. I could live forever, and global warming/the heat death of the universe is irrelevant because you know... Genie.

One Billion dollars makes me as happy as a billionaire. A genie makes literally all of my problems, past and future disappear.

I don't have any. I used to call them liberals like myself but they insisted they are not. Any other term I can use other than progressive which is not particularly descriptive is used quite commonly by the alt right to describe them. I'm not going to allow people I find objectionable to force me to stop using words.

I'd honestly say leftist or far-left are the only non-deragatoryvway of referring to them. And yes, I am aware the far right uses those words as insults but the far right uses things like feelings, empathy, and concern for the vulnerable as insults., So fuck em.

I don't think someone's death is the best time to talk about the things they did wrong. This isn't to say it's never appropriate to talk about the mistakes of former presidents, I just don't think anyone other than people who already agree with you want to hear it. So don't be surprised with people being annoyed with you. There were a lot of bad things about my dad, I still remember them. But I didn't use his funeral as the day to start airing my grievances with him.

Nonsense. Bernie lost because he had less votes in the primary. He lost certain demographics he needed to win. The people voting against him weren't tricked, they just didn't buy what he was selling.

This is likely because you were trying to date a single mother, and then when you found out that you'd have to take on extra responsibilities, you backed off. If you were in a casual relationship, you don't have to take care of her kid, and if you were in a serious relationship, you're basically saying "I love you, but not enough to take care of a kid." This is insulting obviously to someone who probably loves you, therefore an understandable reaction of lashing out happens.

Keep in mind, I am not saying you are unreasonable for not wanting to date a single mother or raise someone else's kid. And if you were a single father, you would likely be annoyed if women had the same reaction to you.

However, she's technically more Native American than you are black.

Still relevant. So, the policeman at the end, basically agrees with what he says, but he says "if I can tell you didn't do it, I'll let you go, because i'm not trying to prosecute innocent people". But yes, you're better off shutting the fuck up, but if you know you're guilty in a minor crime, you can go for honesty in order to get leniency.

Would any of you go to a majority black party with blackface on?

There is a difference between thinking its dumb that an act is reviled because of a long held but irrelevant social stigma and the understanding that a grand majority of people still hold tightly to that stigma.

So do you think that blackface is largely perceived as racist, but you also believe that it shouldn't be because you don't have to be racist to do blackface?

I think the real point then is "Blackface is almost always offensive due to its racist history and connotations". This 1. Only necessarily applies in American context, 2. Certain artistic licenses may allow one to break this rule.

Because it seems that we're splitting hairs. If you're trying to convince people who you're caricaturing that you're not mocking them while turning yourself into mockery of them, you're fighting a losing (lost?) battle. The only thing you can really do at this point is not care what they think and do it anyway.

Innovation - People trying to do things better than what has previously done.
Collaboration - People banding together to create something that they couldn't do individually to compete with something else.
Self-Fulfillment - Encouraging people to try their best to be productive members of society.

if you need to get deeper into any of these, for example we can talk about something like the innovation of digital photography making conventional photography obsolete.

Collaboration you can take something like a company (any will do, but preferably one that does a lot of good), that thrives in this capitalist society, and realize that none of them could thrive without the collaboration of competitive minded people

And then finally self-fulfillment, you can talk about how work culture often rewards people and values them on recognition like employee of the month, and how that affects people positively.

If you're doing this all off head, they likely don't want or need sources, so really, it seems like you just have to make good arguments as to why something is positive.

X is positive because of <insert reason here>. Here are some examples. If you wanna sound really smart, theorize what would happen if X wasn't present.

Yes we are.

It's "almost" like saying Africans-Americans aren't black.

Our ideas get lumped together, we get treated like we are left, in an American context we are largely opposed to the right, we necessarily occupy a political space that people who you would consider sufficiently left also occupy. It's like Ted Cruz saying that Romney isn't the right.

lmao no

The left doesn't trust the FBI, the Cops, the military or companies like Amazon

liberals do

This doesn't change what I said at all. All you're doing is defining yours and people with opinions like your position as "the left".

If you looked at say general opinions among african immigrants (2nd generation), and black people in the country, you might see differing opinions, but it doesn't change the fact that they're all black, and there is significant overlap between the two.

the average dem voter would literally be a member of the conservative party in the U.K

the u.s is so fucking rightwing people like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden are considered liberal.

But we're in America, so we're talking about things in this context. The very political system we're discussing is the one we inhabit. So when you're listening to the GOP and they say "the folks on the left say...", they're referring to you and me. And since words have cultural grounding, just accept that you are definitely further left than me, but we're both on the left. Unless of course you're not American, in which case oops I guess.

In fact, black liberals and white liberals would likely have largely different opinions, but they're still both "liberals".

Like, what's stopping liberals from calling themselves the left, and calling you the "radical left". It's just stupid semantics, based upon general agreements with key differences.
