@Frondeur @Humpleupagus @observer >no one is this fucking stupid
I can tell you haven't worked many hours in retail.
Retarded he may be, but illegal labor is a permanent underclass of easy to exploit brown people brought into the country via sketchy means, used to do the shit jobs citizens have been convinced are beneath them, but in fact are used by the wealthy precisely because they are so cheap and easy to abuse. In a way it's worse than slavery, because it was on the slave owner to feed and take care of his investment. Now the guy who owns the chicken processing plant or the H1B1q employer can have is disposable drones use food stamps, welfare, and subsidized housing to pick up the slack
All the "visas should be this that and the other" is bullshit. None of them should be here. Whether it's slavery or employing illegals, the practice degrades them, and degrades the society that engages in it. Pick your own cotton, do your own construction, and mow your own lawns.

@Evil_Bender @jeffcliff @PurpCat @SuperSnekFriend I worked the drive thru at a fast food place for a while as a young man. Graveyard shift. Manager was always on everyone's ass when it came to turnaround times on orders. She could look in the office computer to see what the times were for each shift and each register.
I quickly found a way to keep her from bitching at me, at least for that. See, she didn't bother to look at individual transactions and turn around times, just the average for the shift. If my shift was having trouble getting orders out on time - and we often did because graveyard customers were often drunks who weren't sure what they wanted or who fell asleep at the window - I would ring up free cups of water and immediately hit the button to indicate the order had been handed out to the customer. Turnaround time for each of those phantom transactions was like 1 or 2 seconds. Do that 2 or 3 dozen times, and my average time for the shift looked golden.

@jeffcliff @cjd @BowsacNoodle @mjdigspigs @vic Dollars represent debt. Debts only have value to the lender if the debt can be collected. Without the threat of violence, many debts would go unpaid. Thus the US dollar is ultimately backed by the threat of violence represented by the US military and law enforcement.

@jeffcliff @cjd @BowsacNoodle @mjdigspigs @vic The government ultimately owes the central bankers. They, like everyone else, must dance to the central bank's tune. A man that owes a debt is a slave to his creditor.
Violence does not have to be an everyday thing. Many cops go their entire career without shooting someone. Yet they still wear that gun every day. They don't have to enforce the law with violence very often because the credible threat of violence is enough for most people. But if cops were to all be disarmed and forbidden from ever shooting anyone one no matter how violent they were acting, the credible threat of violence would vanish, and many, many, many more people would commit crime as a result.
If lenders have no way to force recalcitrant debtors to cough up what they owe, very few people would repay their debts. They'd take the money, say thank you, then give the lender the middle finger as they walked away. All law and government ultimately relies upon the credible threat of violence. If money isn't backed by something physical with real value to it, if it is printed out of thin air by a non-governmental group and then lent to the government and others at interest, that money, that debt can only be backed by the threat of force, forced used to collect the debt owed to the ultimate lender.

@p @TrevorGoodchild @sickburnbro Before Europeans showed up in SA, no one lived in the mostly desert area but literal stone aged hunter-gatherers. After Europeans showed up, they were growing food where no one else could, so much so that the Zulus (who basically destroyed their ability to feed themselves in their own lands) came down, tried to conquer the place, failed, but were allowed to stay.
When Whites ran SA, it was a 1st world country. A strong economy, grew more than enough food, good infrastructure, it even had it's own nuclear program. Thankfully they were smart enough to dismantle that before handing the country over. When Blacks came to power the economy collapsed, over 80% of the people are employed by the government or on the dole, and the infrastructure is falling apart. And not just through neglect. People take pick-axes to overpasses and other things so they can rip out the rebar and sell it for scrap. They can't keep the lights on all the time, and water is only sometimes in the taps.
The literacy rate among black children is the faintest blip on the radar. Everyone in any position of power abuses that power and loots the company or government agency they work for. The vast majority of murders go unsolved. Crime is so bad that anyone that can afford to turns their home into a literal fortress, with electric fences topped with barbed wire, iron gates on the outside and often even interiors of their homes. No one dares stop at a red light for fear you'll be rushed by locals who pull you out and murder you for your car.
Call it propaganda all you want, but the evidence is irrefutable. Everywhere blacks rule in Africa, the place becomes a festering 3rd world hellscape because of incompetence, corruption, criminality, because they have long term planning of a May fly, and because they have the empathy of a sociopathic toddler. The South Africa and Zimbabwe of yesteryear were they way they were because they were run by whites, whites that made sure they staid in power. Current day South Africa and Zimbabwe are the way they are because they are run by black Africans.
For that matter, stores in the US didn't have to keep their merchandise locked behind glass when we had Segregation. We didn't have clerks partitioned off behind bullet proof glass.

@sickburnbro @TrevorGoodchild @p Normal people look at Africa, look at all the natural wealth, look at everything just waiting to be developed, see boundless opportunity. I can't imagine how depressing it is to go there, work your ass off to build things up, only to finally have it sink in that the people living there will destroy it all almost as fast as you can build.
Still, things like this movie serve several purposes. For one, it helps make the case why things like Apartheid was necessary.

@BowsacNoodle @John_Darksoul @SK1ZM @Griffith True love and genuine humiliation are hard to have when you have low impulse control, have little empathy, and can't really model someone else's thought process. How can you imagine what Christ went through in His last days and appreciate what His sacrifice really means if you can't imagine what it would have been like to not have breakfast this morning?
Dogs will love unconditionally, but a hoodrat will rape you, set you on fire, laugh about it, and never feel any real remorse for his actions. To me at least this suggests that all good dogs go to heaven, but hoodrats? Not so much.

@brigrammer @SK1ZM @GoyGirl @RichardKuklinskisIcyGlare @KingOfWhiteAmerica @Shadowbroker2135 @leespringfield1903 @mjdigspigs @pepsi_man @verita84 @vic Also, I believe he came from some kind of royal family. Born into, at the time, crazy wealth and luxury. Christ was born in a barn and worked as a carpenter, but this dude starts off on top of the heap then gets bored and sad so he goes looking for spirituality. Bored nepo-babies today abandon their responsibilities so they can run off to India looking for spiritual enlightenment. The guy that created the religion basically did the same damned thing.

@SK1ZM @GoyGirl @RichardKuklinskisIcyGlare @KingOfWhiteAmerica @Shadowbroker2135 @brigrammer @leespringfield1903 @mjdigspigs @pepsi_man @verita84 @vic And the truth he settled on was ... it don't matt'ah. None of dis matt'ahs.
Life is kind of curse. You should abandon any responsibilities so you can sit and do nothing but contemplate emptiness and oneness, whatever the fuck that means. Disconnect from your family, your country, your people. Just sit there navel gazing and hope at some point you won't be reborn into the universe again. No love, no hope, no family, no children, no history, no striving, no building, nothing. Just nothing.
That universal truth sounds an awful lot like a semi-black pilled 4chan NEET.

@BowsacNoodle @Invictus @Sirpantangelini People are more willing to kill monsters than other humans, so it's useful to turn the other side into monsters.

@Thusnelda @Bad_Banner It's a guy thing. Most women don't like the 3 Stooges, but nearly all men back in the day did. Some things are for you, some things are for us, and some things are for both. Alex is a meme firehose aimed at guys.

@BowsacNoodle A phrase my grand dad used.

@missjanedoe @BowsacNoodle Nearly all hate is born of love. It is natural and even necessary to hate that which threatens what you love in the same way pain is natural and necessary to keep you from hurting yourself. Touching an open flame causes pain. In response you jerk your hand back before more damage is done. If a group of people is threatening your children you will hate them. That hate will motivate you to protect your children from that threat.
Not hating the things and people that threaten your children does not make you virtuous, it makes you a bad parent. The same example can be extended to apply to your whole family, yourself, your community, and your culture. Hate that erupts without reason is unhealthy, but then again, any emotion that is acted upon without just cause tends to be unhealthy. Like, say, continued tolerance and love expressed by a battered wife towards an abusive husband, or by an individual towards other people who reliably abuse him/her.
Loving your enemies doesn't mean you lay down and let them destroy you. It means you keep hoping they turn from evil and embrace a more righteous path, even as you smite their evil ass for threatening you and other innocent people. When contemplating what would Jesus do in this situation, remember going ham and beating the ever loving shit out of people with whips is one of the options.

@Roscoe Humans are emotional creatures, not rational ones. We use what little powers of reason we have to justify our emotions and do short term tasks. The very few among us who are entirely rational at all times are called autistic, which is to say, brain damaged.

@RichardKuklinskisIcyGlare @Roscoe Depression is itself an emotion, along with the associated emotions like anger, resentment, etc. You sound a lot like me pre-stroke.

@NoDoxGregBrady @WhitestTemplar @homesteader_surfer Remember that psychological test where they put a marshmallow in front of a small child. Then the adult tells them they are going to leave the room for a while, and if they can not touch the marshmallow until they come back, the kid will get even more marshmallows. The kids that snatch up and eat the marshmallow when the adult leaves tended to have a less well off life as they grew into adulthood than the kid that resisted temptation. Things like lower lifetime earnings, higher likelihood to become addicted and end up in jail, broken marriages and illegitimate kids, shorter life span, etc.
India, Africa, and the rest of the 3rd world are entire ethnicities who fail the marshmallow test.
