  • Please spare me your strongman, “sticks and stones may break my bones” schtick. I’m not talking about soft shit like that.

    I was addressing you from the standpoint of workshopping potential reasons why your attempt at persuasion was facing pushback (in the form of downvotes). My expectation was that, if you wanted to persuade people to adopt your method of HR interaction, you should package it in a palatable way. You seem to subscribe to the “shit yourself in public, stomp around aggressively, and then try convince people by saying do ya get it yet? you smellin' what I'm steppin' in?” school of communication.

    One thing I will agree with you about is that I was imprecise with my words. I’ve used money, so I am a capitalist. Guess I’ll die. I meant, and should have said, you seem pro-capitalist. But, as we’ve already established, you’re uninterested in looking good.

    In case you aren’t aware, both comments are referencing an old Youtube parody animation about Dragonball Z called “Dragonzball PeePee”.

    Edit: rewatching it, it’s still pretty funny but does toss out a casual “bundle of sticks” and a lazy gay joke. So there’s your “old media warning”.


  • I don’t presume you’ve checked the accumulated downvotes but

    Mcdonalds burger flipper level reasoning

    stinks pretty badly of classist ideology. Paired with a comment that seems more in-tune with the needs of the company than the employee, it does not paint you in a good light.

    I understand the comment is speaking from the capitalist’s side but you don’t have to wear the suit so naturally. Historians won’t be putting on red belly shirts and sticking their heads in honey jars to give talks about Xi Jinpeng in the future.



  • People are tired because there’s literally no winning with tactics like that. The idiotic tactics on display in the OP aren’t about realistically “winning” the culture war. It’s just sowing so many nonsense weeds that any reasonable discussion is choked off of the vine. When you allow inanity like “male/female skull assignment” as a platform instead of “simply being correct”, the whole game goes down the toilet. It’s now just “who can shout the loudest and the longest and into the most ears directly”. That’s not a race with a finish line, it’s the cultural equivalent to a “last person shitting” contest and these motherfuckers are full of shit.

    If you have a mind to think, you can only turn it off so long. And when the reasonable person does switch theirs back on, they’ll eventually have to contend with the mess.
