I don't think the left or the republicans (i repeat myself) understands or are prepared for how far right the average 18-25 year old male is now and it's just going to get more extreme with subsequent generations because the "liberal democracy" model we've been living under has been completely lost it's legitimacy and exposed itself to be a scam and morally evil.

if i had to put money on it I'd say the future will look far more like pre ww2 than post ww2.
I've noticed this as well. The majority of male Gen Z is quite far right/arguably further right than your average middle aged MAGA voter. There's Gen Z women who lean right as well, but there's also a substantial amount of them who have been brainwashed to support liberal nonsense 'cause they fell for the whole "Republicans hate wimmenz" thing.

The Democratic party is going to be in for a rude awakening when Gen Z and younger start heading to the polls/older generations die off, 'cause they're gonna have to pivot back to 90's centrist policies to even get a shot at being elected.
 
the actual fix is to get children off of the general internet
We have that. It's called "being a fucking parent and stop giving your children unsupervised, unrestricted access to the internet".
Literally every single device that can access the internet has some form of parental controls and your child should be suprised if they're using a laptop/desktop.
Suggesting that we do all this fucking stupid shit of government whitelists just proves that most people are lazy niggers who refuse to get off their ass.
 
I wonder if the national republic party is going to send one of their hatchet men to help Silwa since the democrats are knifing each other.
The national party is clueless when it comes to NYC, they could only fuck things up. Trump would also likely hurt things by going up there and uniting the left against him.
The only thing the national party should do is send tons of money and maybe get help from who ever ran Mike Lawler's campaign.
 
I have generally very positive experiences with zoomers. They're polite, pleasant, willing to work, they're just abysmally educated
Same. They're nice (almost too nice) and they're not dumb, but it's almost like they were specifically taught/trained to parrot dumb shit, to their detriment. If you can break through to them, they're great. I just worry the wall gets thicker each generation. (arguably this could be argued across every generational divide, insert your favorite Socrates quote here).
 
I hate to be one to lean on stereotypes, but the whole shaniqua at the DMV/daquarious manning customer service at the post office (insert your own personal horror story here) is a real thing.

They WILL fuck with you and give you a hard time and make you come back over shit that doesn't even matter/isn't even real.

When you come back with whatever shit they were on about and get someone who isn't them? Fucking no problem/you didn't need to do that in the first place.

I feel like Seth MacFarlane's joke about the DMV being designed by black people as punishment for slavery was probably a little too real.

The funny thing is you can say these things IF you couch them vaguely, and everyone claps. If you get specific though, lol, things get spicy.

"30 Days to Slow the spread", and you want these same people to regulate the internet / video games, whatever modern tech is having issues due to you either "not feeling safe", or "WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN".

What the fuck happened to personal responsibility and the responsibility of raising your own little hellspawn?

I've always been of the opinion that as soon as someone pulls the Mrs. Lovejoy "think of the children" card, they're a retard (because that's almost the OG lol fuck your freedom card). But it's an increasingly tricky/slippery slope with how fucking retarded everything has been getting. They're getting around the curve and will be right sooner or later, due to fucktards not wrangling their own spawn properly. Then will come the day when everyone shouts told ya so, and everyone will be pissed for various reasons. It's a bit of a headscratcher to say the least.
 
How many meth dealers standing on the street corner outside your house constantly pushing their product in peoples faces does it take for someone to think that maybe the meth epidemic isn't 110% on parents not telling their kids that meth is bad hard enough and maybe the meth dealers are at least partially culpable in how bad things have gotten

They won't learn their lesson until the boot is already on their neck, if that.

Fuck's sake. Even growing up in the 90s, as dumb as I was as a kid, I was at least smart enough to not overshare too much of yourself online due to how many fucking weirdos there were populating chat servers. Kids these days don't have that natural wariness towards strangers, and have this incessant need to overshare literally fucking EVERYTHING online.

"O. M. G. Sherry, you got robbed."
"I know. After I posted I was going out of town on Facebook for a week for vaca."
"...........you what now?"
 
It’s Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software and there’s a free pdf. It won’t so much teach you how to code as answer that nagging question—how did we take electricity and turn it into this. Maybe it’s weird but I don’t think Terry was so crazy for seeing God in the machine.
Similar to God, computers can be great or they can be destructive in unimaginable ways.

Long read but if you like technical stuff this is a must read for understanding the interplay between software safety systems, government regulations and corporations.

TL;DR
Code problems led one of the earlier radiation therapy machines (Therac-25) that moved off of physical safety controls to software to accidentally overdose radiation and literally disintegrate people from the inside out.

That and not giving drug dealers the death penalty as a matter of course. Oh, you were caught with a pound of marijuana and enough fent to sedate a heard of elephants? That's a crucifixion buddy! Even when a heavy pusher is caught, they'll at best do a dime in federal and then retire on all the money they hid from the Feds in a Panamanian bank account. Fast tracking them to a good Ole fashioned public hanging would do way more as a deterrent.
 
Reminds me of when he showed President South Africa that video and the first thing a journo brings up is the Qatari plane.
I wonder if individual journalists ever get sick of being personally swatted on the nose like that for being a prick. I know the industry itself gets smug and cocky whenever it happens (they treat it as a "gotcha" even when they look retarded for doing it), but do you think the imbecile who did this, surrounded by peers and also by very powerful people who all think he's a cunt now, felt even a pang of embarrassment, guilt or shame?

Or is journoscum training so effective that all humanity is scrubbed from its acolytes?
