If someone borrows the views of another in some part, does the borrowing person's own view not OWN the interpretation?
Crenshaw, Bell, et al. call themselves Marxists proudly. I accept their testimony that that is where they got their ideas, because knowing those ideas, it's obvious to me they're telling the truth about that.
But then, they also go beyond Marx, to even worse ideas, of course.
I would likely agree to a lot of it given the fuller title emphasizes the concern: Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything About Race, Gender and Identity – And Why This Harms Everybody (2020). I'll have a look at it...
Excellent. Thank you. It will deal with all your remaining questions.
You assume YOU are the author
No, I assume only that you will keep your word. I hope that's not too much of an assumption.
FALSE:
No, it's true. "Innocent until proven guilty" remains the axiom of all our courts, so far. Everybody, Right, Left and Centrist, male, female and confused, young and old, of all backgrounds and cultures gets exactly the same rule.
If that was the case, you would have nothing to complain about. The reality is that this IS being reversed in laws...especially here in Canada but is also being pressed for in the U.S..
Well, in the case of "believe all women," you're correct -- they are pushing against the "innocent until prove guilty" standard. But they haven't won yet.
Trudeau
...has also made a career of pretending to support women; but he fires any that confront him. He has a reputation as a "fake Feminist," which you will already know, no doubt.
Trivial. You are also quoting the "Left" as though you now trust them simply for saying something you agree with.
Not at all. I'm merely pointing out that they have no reason to agree with me, since they have different views...and yet, they do agree with me on this.
When two such opposed rivals end up agreeing, you have to ask why. And the most common answer is that they have both fixed on a truth that neither can deny.
So stop asserting this is coming from the Left.
I don't have to. It is.
That's it? NO proof?
Proof of what? You didn't ask for any. You just declared that the Left isn't saying all the things the Left is saying.
The Israeli Constitution,
Has nothing to do with us.
Fuck you for accusing Bill Clinton of crimes you hypocrit without actual proof!
Me? Not me. Twelve women.
If twelve accusers is "no proof" you'd be right. But we already know he used his position to exploit interns...that has, in fact, been proved.
My point is that the "believe all women" standard would catch a bunch of Democrats first. Clinton would surely be one.
ONLY where actual rape is concerned does it matter.
Well, I'll let the women here explain to you why that's not so. But in point of fact, Clinton is not just accused of "impropriety" or "abuse of power" but actual violent rape. He's accused, in fact, of being a serial predator.
By whom
I gave you a list.
You are proving to be against the First Amendment now too given the separation of Church and State.
I'm not: I'm actually against blending church and state. The State has no right at all to abridge religious practice, I say. But surely you know there is no such "amendment" in Canada.
In fact why do you not recognize that even Trudeau's beliefs are inline with this. [I don't think you know that the "Liberal Party of Canada" is a label but that they are actually Center-Right conservatives who embrace religion.]
Now I'm starting to think you don't know what a conservative is. It has nothing to do with either wealth or religion. Sorry.
HOW is it possible in principle for a LEFTist media to exist without it denying advertising or sponsors?
Because, like all Leftist ideologues, they're hypocrites. They want the money, and don't really care about people. They just care about
being seen to care.
If you were correct, how do you possibly think that a 'conservative' Rightwing government would be MORE 'liberal'?
I'm not sure they would. But they couldn't be less "liberal" than Communism is.
A "Rightwing" ideal favors the belief in Kings and Queens who rule SUPREME
No, that's called "monarchy." It also has nothing to do with political conservatism.
FREEDOM to be who you are so long as you do not infringe on the rights of others of the same freedom![/quote
That's called "Libertarianism." The Communists hate it.
Media OWNED at all is "Rightwinged"
Not in Canada, for sure. It's heavily funded by Trudeau, using public money, not his own.
(1)The Liberal Party is Right-of-center, not LEFT.
Nope. Nobody but you, perhaps, thinks that.
I also agree with you that all of this accusations without appropriate charge and trials should exist.
I think maybe you left a "not" out of this sentence, correct?
Correct. Also, "this" should be "these" of course.
Oh. Possibly so, although "this" also could work, if it refers to "accusations" as a collective. Thanks for clearing that up.
Then I agree.
I'm definitely FOR the right of ANYONE LEGAL AGED to have sex with whomever they choose and their right to sell their body as a "sex worker".
I think you'll find that just opens the door to all kinds of exploitation of vulnerable persons. "Free choice," in the case of sex workers, is a complicated matter. Very few, left to their own devices, would choose that. It's a violent, degraded and risky lifestyle.
...most wealth today is not made by inheritance anyway...
False.
True.
https://www.businessinsider.com/persona ... -to-wealth
Given any three 'equally' privileged people, for one to be 'wealthy' to the others NECESSARILY implies that they gained it over the other two.
That's incorrect, actually. It mistakenly thinks of "wealth" a fixed amount of goods; and if that were true, any getting of more would take away from others. But that's not how it works: actually, people often create new wealth, and it costs others nothing.
Take the computer on which you're typing. Whom did you steal it from? Or did you voluntarily buy it, because somebody had invented a product (the computer) that you wanted to buy?
And NO, I disagree with a right to pass on inheritance by some single personal decision because it grants them the unique power to foster biased favor to their own KIND that assures the very foundation that leads to racism and sexism.
If your dad gives you money, you want to call him a "racist or a "sexist"?
We wouldn't HAVE the issues we do now if actual fairness of MERIT applied.
That's exactly when we'd have them. Because merit doesn't mean everybody gets the same; it means you get however much your "merit" is worth.
Wealth generation is also EXPONONENTIAL such that the MORE wealth you begin with, the EASIER it is to MULTIPLY your returns. This cannot mathematically be possible if it is normal that people actually 'earned' wealth without some DECEPTION in taking more than you give somewhere.
No, actually, that's also not true. If a man has $100 and invests it, and in a few weeks, it turns out to be worth $150, whose money has he stolen?
NO, our Western countries are mostly CONSERVATIVE
No, actually: they're not. Both Canada and the US have very strongly Left-leaning governments right now.
Again I don't think you've actually got Left and Right figured out.
If you are born to a poor Native Reserve here, for instance, why do you have to be the one who has to 'accept' the unlikelihood of getting ahead by keeping the status quo just because life is unfair.
I'm afraid that has little to do with the government, and nothing to do with the Right. It has to do with band councils and the reservation system, which is a horror show of graft, mismanagement, alcoholism, drugs, abuse and misery. But I think we would have to start with eliminating the reservations if we want to save aboriginal women and children from what's happening to them now.
However the aboriginals themselves are dead against that...most of them, anyway.
We CANNOT continue to live in this overpopulated world
It's actually nowhere near "overpopulated," and we can stabilize the population very easily.
Educated women tend to have children at a rate slightly less than 2. That means that if we educate the world's women, we stabilize the population and start to shrink it. Problem solved.
And isn't that the best way to solve the problem? We just have to treat undereducated women better.
