Topic | Can you get along with people who disagree with you? |
GunslingerGunsl 03/12/21 8:37:23 PM #1 | Even if you disagree on highly controversial topics that most people get in their feelings about? I see people regularly resort to insults when they disagree with eachother online, but I don't think that is as common in an in-person situation. It still happens though. My grandmother is a devout catholic and my mom's boyfriend is pretty conservative so I tend to disagree with them on touchy subjects. Despite that, I have a great relationship with my grandma and my mom's boyfriend and I get along just fine. I think it's still easy to get along with people that aren't friends or family when you can find some common ground. Do you guys find it difficult to get along with people like this irl? Do you only have friends that agree with you on controversial topics? |

Topic | Chicago Suburb becomes 1st city to give Black ppl Reparations... |
GunslingerGunsl 03/12/21 7:20:03 PM #27 | Krazy_Kirby posted... not my fault, and I'm not going to feel guilty for being white, I'm not an sjw.I don't think anyone is asking you to feel guilty. I can admit that I am privileged in some aspects of my life, but it doesn't mean I need to feel guilty about it. I'm not saying I agree with this strategy of "making reparations" but I think dismissing it because it relates to something that happened over a hundred years ago is reductionist at best. If there are still lingering negative consequences of something that happened 100 years ago, why shouldn't we still be trying to address it? |

GunslingerGunsl 03/12/21 3:06:09 PM #16 | Zeus posted... And your argument is every bit as stupid as his hypothetical. In many cases, these reparations will be given to people whose ancestors weren't even in the country during the slave trend. More importantly, it perpetuates the harmful stereotype that the black community and African-Americans aren't capable of succeeding and need the government to help. If many successful African-Americans who are an inspiration to ALL people -- including Oprah, Daymond John, Lonnie Johnson (okay, maybe he isn't as famous as the others, but he should be more famous than he is), etc -- believed that poisoned narrative you're trying to push, they may never have achieved their success.Zeus, you're not even understanding the difference between saying that someone is disadvantaged and that someone is incapable of succeeding. Until you can acknowledge that, there is not point in arguing with you. Zeus posted... The ONE really great (on paper anyway) program to fix these issues was repatriotization -- where America tried to help African-Americans who wanted to return to the land of their ancestors do so (which is the closest thing you can do to returning things to a pre-slavery status quo)The fact that you think moving black people out of America as a reparation for a history of slavery and systemic racism is a GOOD idea just goes to show your lack of insight and empathy concerning this issue. |

GunslingerGunsl 03/12/21 1:30:06 PM #9 | Muscles posted... The solution is to update racist laws so we can end institutional racism and, on an individual level, to not be racistYeah, I think it's definitely a complex issue. It almost seems impossible to come up with a way to address it adequately. I'm not even going to pretend that I know the answer (I didn't even vote in the poll). It depends on too many individuals changing their beliefs and behaviors and becoming more empathetic/understanding. |

GunslingerGunsl 03/12/21 1:21:13 PM #7 | Krazy_Kirby posted... fucking stupid.You know that's not going to happen. It's not even a good comparison. The country literally enslaved and regularly murdered an entire race of people for a significant amount of time. Those racists ideologies and practices have long-lasting consequences on the systems in our communities. Generational trauma is real. Do you think it's better to just tell people "just forget about it and move on?" Would you tell someone with a trauma history to do that? What is your solution? |

They're going for the sake of more money.I'm sure the fact that Kevin Feige is a fan of the material has something to do with it as well.

I think you've commented on it when I posted a pic of my living room in another topic. It's pretty nice. |

GunslingerGunsl 03/08/21 5:15:43 PM #6 | Zeus posted... I guess if the weather was better one of you could just go outside (although it'd have to be her, for confidentiality. However, it's a bit cold for that.Yeah, I've considered those options as well. The bathroom feels a bit too weird for me to be doing therapy. Haha. Outside would actually be nice in our patio area but the problem is that it is adjacent to our neighbors and I can't guarantee people wouldn't walk by. I mean, I guess it wouldn't be too bad if I wore headphones like shadow suggested but I don't even like the idea of people hearing what I'm saying either. I'd rather air on the side of extreme caution for confidentiality. That's what I'd hope a counselor would do for me. At least in my car, I'm in a carport and my windows are rolled up. It's just a pain, ya know? Edit: oh renting an office space would be nice, but im currently just interning and wouldn't really want to spend money on it. |

GunslingerGunsl 03/08/21 4:57:33 PM #1 | ...is that sometimes both my girlfriend and I have to work from home at the same time. We live in a loft that has an open floor plan so there is absolutely no privacy. She's a special education teacher and I'm a counselor. I need complete privacy because of confidentiality so I'll probably have to be in my car for the next 3 hours on Zoom with my clients. I really wish I had my own office space... |
