I noticed that too. She condemns and despises the very system that developed, designed, and marketed such tech into popularity. The fact that said iPad was actually manufactured in an authoritarian communist country, an ideology Naima wishes the US to emulate, doesn't help either.

Do you know what it’s like using an old iPad when the new one is out.. it’s hell...

Black Beard hahaha you’re not wrong!

I found it interesting that she chose to leave that in there...

Oh god yes. It's been excellently discussed in the comments here before. It's been theorized also that since atheistic Progressivism doesn't really believe in an immortal soul, "bodies" reduces people to their mere outer shells if you will, and then further specifies only that they are "black", "brown" or "of color". The phrase "people of color" is also really weird and offputting, and it feels as if it's implying that only those people possess color. As spiritual beings who respond to beauty, color affects us emotionally, so by assigning color only to non-white people, it makes a subliminal statement

It must have come from the relevant grievance 'academia' somewhere .

The collective sure is a handy cudgel to wield whenever one doesn't actually hold the moral high ground but needs to "win" the argument anyway.

It's funny how most sensible people would cross the street if they seen some poc coming their way. Well crime stats speak for themselves.

Well you obviously never studied east Asian history, then, or it would not have been an eye opening experience for you. Had you studied the cultural revolution, the parallels of bret being hunted and the guangxi massacre would be...you would have made that connection right away on your own just as i did. He is lucky he wasnt eaten.

missanna208802 Cool

Comparing reality today with the Nine Commentaries on the Chinese Communist Party is also incredibly enlightening.

@@missanna208802 Being 100% honest, I have no inclination to study East Asian history. Does this make me racist?

Phenomenally stupid or malicious.

Sadly just before COVID started a friend of mine experienced something similar though by far not as drastic. We're from Germany and he looks very German (strong features, blue eyes, blonde, aethletic) and our college/university (different school system here) is quite left including offices were you can report any form of discrimination, vegan/vegetarian menues, rainbow flags, a lot of openly left professors etc. So because he looked like a stereotypical German and wasn't openly left (he stated he accepted all opinions and is considering himself in the political middle) people started acting as if he was a Nazi. My boyfriend also was targeted as a Nazi before in the middle of a private conversation about refugees but I guess I can be glad that he was quite close to people that are openly left including me so there was no further action against him but our friend did not have so much luck. Once my boyfriend and he went to a house party with these left students and when he was really drunk he screamed "Wir sind das Volk" (We're the volk") which is what Germans screamed at the fall of the Berlin Wall so there's nothing wrong with that since it even was a left chant. But because a right organisation claimed this sentence his own and people don't know crap about history the students on the party felt confirmed that he was a Nazi. They then stormed up to him arguing and threw him out of the house. After that day he got threatened by a group of older students that wanted to beat him up. He only got out of it because he was a handball player and knew some cranked up people that would defend him. After that I was really angry and confronted the people in my course that it was escalating into a witch hunt and I guess at least involved students from MY course calmed down after that. The most ironic thing about this experience is that he and my boyfriend even were quite close with our Jordan exchange students and is living together with a friend from kazakhstan. Meanwhile the students I was talking about were friends with a dude that made offensive jokes about these Jordan exchange students and he didn't stop even after he was told it was hurtful. I don't know how he got away with that honestly... Our friend's experience and the fact that this also affected how people were less open towards me and my bf after that really opened my eyes and changed how I perceive """"anti-fascist"""""" movements.

How are they slaves?

@@alex-qd6of They have been convinced to terrorise innocent civilians in pursuit of an ideology from which they will not benefit and if the system they're working to establish ever does get established, they will most likely be executed by the very same people who convinced them to do all that.

@@alex-qd6of , more a mental stretch to be sure, but I guess in this sense slaves to the dogma, to the group think, which aims to control actions and thought and brook very little out of conformity.

Bingo!

Those kinds of people love Mao and other communist leaders. If any of them have seen these comparisons, they would probably shout, "YASS!"

Not likely that they're embarrassed at all.

decent. but yeah, i agree.

DOH! :)

My birth was after McCarthy-ism ended. I didn't get capitalism propaganda paid for by General Motors but a didn't get anything on the Soviet Union or China either. I learned there was a war in Vietnam. No teacher discussed it at all, pro or con or reasons, or anything factually wrong with totalitarian communism.. it seemed like USA buzzword vs USSR buzzword. Marxists.org held some sympathies with me. Wsws has some good solid critiques of Corporate Capitalism as it currently exists. I came to understand, when power is centered in a small vanguard group of leader(s) who refuse to face questions or challenges, the results can NEVER be good, regardless of theory or intentions. USSR and China and similar states are Totalitarian, meaning they don't only punish riots or dissent, they punish artists & musicians & composers & writers who speak or write or compose unpatriotic output. *Shostakovich* *Same situation for left-leaning economists killed in post-Allende Chilean coup* when leaders embraced Chicago School extreme neoliberal Capitalism with social Darwin tendencies. Govt was no less lawless than Robespierre. There's parallels btw managerial capitalism and socialism, it's degrees vs black & white. Socialism is SUPPLY-constrained, meaning the Central Party decides on production. Quantity Theory of Money (more spending devalues money & causes inflation) applies fully to a full on socialist economy. Free(?) markets are DEMAND-constrained, meaning that consumers (with sufficient $$ incomes + credit) drives production and GDP. So if more consumer Demand is generated, by higher wages or by govt payments for war or for welfare, business expands output (incl imports) or other businesses arise up grab that added Demand. (I wish we would learn that about the real functions of our welfare state market economy. Stronger workers & stronger wages = stronger GDP/sales/profits.) *Some chaos isn't our enemy, it's our friend* . *Chaos is a feature not a flaw* .

When the video began malfunctioning I knew the reasons behind it had to be sketchy, so I powered through it. Glad I did. KZfaq doesn't like people who use history to explain current events. Much love for the CCP there.

These are modern college students. They can't learn anything from the past because they know nothing of the past.

If history repeats itself, you have every right to be absolutely terrified of this.

Me too. Benjamin did say in one video that a student was threatened not to talk to him or something, or that the student had to write him anonymously out of safety concerns.

Almost done! Thanks for hanging in there with me!

The struggle will never be over. Keep hate alive !!!

Another hallmark of a religious movement.

Intersectionality is about creating chaos in order to tear down systems they deem to be oppressive. This means destroying anything male lead, the nuclear family, traditional religion, and any structure owned or maintained by White people. Partner with these people at your own peril. Just as they did to TERFs, they will destroy anyone who does not pay homage to every tenant of their victim dogma.

He didn’t go to Evergreen to belittle conservatives... He is merely pointing out that although he himself is progressive they still found a way to hurl the same illogical charges as you say are hurled at conservatives. You have an ally... he just wants to discuss ideas... I like ideas. :). He didn’t go there specifically to belittle anyone.

MariaL Do you mean the cult of Communism when you say 100 millions killed? Ideas with good intentions like intersectionality can turn into a Stalinist like system of opression where free speech is thrown out the window? I know Anarchists, Marxist Communist and Antifa types behave like this. There's no such thing as disagreeing even if you were to believe almost the same thing as them. Violence is okay to them. The fact the Bret Weinstein is Jewish makes the whole thing all the more horrifying. There is no left or right, Communism and fascism become the same at that point. A circle, so to speak. Race, Sexual Orientation and gender are just a mask to cover up people's bigotry on the left. The group that preaches tolerance throwing the ones they don't tolerate to the wolves.

I didn't take his comment that "I am a deeply progressive person" as a way of elevating himself above Tucker. He was responding to Tucker's comment that he must be a Hillary supporter. Bret was, and I think still is, a Bernie Sanders supporter. I don't know who he ultimately voted for in 2016, since Sanders didn't get the nomination, but Sanders supporters felt betrayed by Hillary Clinton and the DNC, because it was revealed that the Democrats tilted the nomination process against him, in favor of her, and she was not an innocent bystander to that. I think that's what his comment was about. He didn't get a chance to say it, but I think what he was going for was to talk about his support for Sanders. Listening to him talk more about what he believes, I find it kind of hard to reconcile his support for Sanders, because Bret has made it pretty clear that he supports markets and private enterprise, that what's been tried with government owning the means of production does not work. From what I've heard, Sanders says he's not for that "old style" socialism, that he also believes that private enterprise should be allowed to exist. That's pollyannish, in my view, because people who are already of the mind that government needs to manipulate and control private business, because it cannot be left to its own devices, inevitably get into wanting to control the whole thing, either in the fascist mold, or in the communist mold, because free people don't follow the goals of planners. The outcomes of their interactions will always frustrate them. And so people like this will always feel compelled to take greater and greater control over private business, because the idea that they can't achieve their utopian goals is unacceptable to them.

@Ribb Rotgut I guess that since you are apparently the moral judge of some, that you have some sort of evidence to back your claim that Carlson isn’t a decent human being? I’ll disregard the “good reporter” part so that you don’t bloviate on your opinion about what you think a good reporter is...

That always disturbed me, however maybe it was for the better since no one got hurt, that I know of. I'm saying that in a way of not knowing how the students would have reacted more so than the police.

I think you have to consider this from the perspective of the police for a minute. Despite the current narrative in this country, police officers do not sit around dreaming of bashing people upside the head, stealing property and killing black people. Stacey was in a terrible position. If the police went out on the campus, there is absolutely NO DOUBT that our little Nazi friends would have forced a physical confrontation. Which is EXACTLY what Naima’s minions wanted. A full fledged bottle throwing, car-lighting, flame-throwing riot against the police. The narrative then would have become that the police attacked brave students exercising their constitutional rights. Naima’s Nazis would have become national heroes. I am quite sure that George Bridges told Stacey to stand down. But she is a smart enough woman to be privately glad to do so. A shame. But this was not going to end as well as it did, if the police went into to quell the mob.

They're coming for the curriculums next, mark my words. When colleges reopen, it's going to be an absolute shit show.

Cig Economy no doubt. 1619 project and Howard zinn are already in schools. Have a friend using Howard zinn as a textbook for 10 year olds. However the normal course is when the statues and icons run out the bullets start flying.

@@CigEconomy not just colleges. Our middle school principal supports this completely.

You could even see it in the results of the 2018 U.S. midterms. The more pragmatic Democratic candidates won the night while their uber-progressive counterparts tended to lost big-time anywhere that wasn't a deeply "blue" urban enclave. There was even a progressive who despite spouting all the same woke catchphrases and hurling the usual -ists and -isms at her opponents failed to win in the suburbs of Washington DC which was quite an embarrassment for the looney wing.

Eh, I'm less optimistic. Particularly, given how this cancer has spread to corporate America.

@@bennieblanks5129 Well, Corporate America IS cancer, so... of course it spread there. But, "Get Woke, Go Broke" isn't just a clever aphorism. It kills companies, until they figure out how to contain it.

@Сперти за правду nah that wasn't Jimal.

@sonoki82 I'm not going to take pleasure in the downfall of others. Perhaps she has learned from her poor behavior and can grow from this sad Evergreen experience. Unlikely, but there's always hope. She truly had it good there at Evergreen. A cush teaching position where it truly appeared she could do almost anything she wanted, few classes, no apparent structure. She could just make things up as desired. And she also had a cult-like following of students and peers that either bought into her b.s., or were afraid of her. She threw it all away for a failed attempt at a power grab. What a fascinating story nonetheless.

She's quite the looker, that Miss Lowe.
