BTW, I am hoping that Oprah runs next. If Trump can be president why not Oprah? The possible entertainment values should be quite high. Especially if Hillary decides to contest.

Well Mags the Milk Snatcher was deranged. Bringing copies of the Sun into cabinet meetings.WTF! She was rapidly turning into a complete fruitloop toward the end of her reign, rabiting on about cricket bats. I've always been of the opinion that 'great leaders' are made by happy coincidence between their peculiarities and prevailing circumstance. Mags was exactly the poison needed to shock Britain out of it's malaise. I think that Britain would have been fucked if someone like her hadn't come along. Circumstances changed and her pet solutions became less and less productive.VickyCaramel wrote: ↑Tue Jan 09, 2018 5:14 amI see there is still no cure for Thatcher Derangement Syndrome.Guest_7cbd4721 wrote: ↑ If it were up to me they'd have cut off her head, driven a stake through her cold black heart and weighed her corpse down with rocks inside a solid silver casket for good measure.

Maggie's health reforms stopped the waiting lists and her policies have been pursued by every government ever since.Guest_7cbd4721 wrote: ↑ Having your health damaged as a child by her waiting lists will do that to a person...
There seems to be a myth on the left that the NHS was a socialist idea, that it was created perfect and the conservatives have been trying to destroy it ever since in order to make money for their rich friends.
The truth is that the complete welfare system was created to make the country fit and productive and ready to defend the Empire against the Huns - it isn't the Left's baby and it was born retarded. It can never perfect, it can only ever be adequate, it is an endless pit and no amount of money can ever be enough. It has been a mess practically since its inception, and any attempt to reform it is always seen as attack on it.
Don't get me wrong, I am all for the state taking care of health, just as I am for them taking care of fires and locking up criminals. But the left needs to stop seeing the NHS as a sacred cow which would be fine if it only had a bit more money. It is a disaster area which could benefit from cuts in management, some privatization, some more competition and we could probably learn some lessons from what other western nations are doing. The left also has to stop pretending that the Tories want to privatize the whole thing and take us to an American style system.

It seems to me that fundamentalist religionists are more open to having debates about their ideas than the SJW community. It makes me wonder if their "faith" is so fragile it won't stand up to criticism.We are reaching out to see if you would want to be a speaker at Mythcon V. Our idea for your event would to be part of a discussion on “The effects of social justice activism in the African American community” [sic] This topic title is not final. The idea is to have you on stage with someone that would hold opposing views. We would have a moderator that would be present just to keep the conversation moving along.

What a lot of people don't seem to understand is that shitlords like Jon Haidt and Jordan Peterson are just using the research on the sex differences in the negative effects of social media to prevent girls from getting a smart-phone. Even more: it's a smoke-screen to stop you from realizing that both smart-phones and every well-known form of social media was invented by a person with a penis.
Re: There are 2018 genders... and a bitch ain't one of them
Very good question, the question of the hour, the 64,000 dollar one, although, what with inflation and all, that's more like the 64 million dollar one.Billie from Ockham wrote: ↑And what is the best way to get someone to stop treating a person of a given sort as if all of their attributes were equal to (what they believe to be) the mean for a person of that sort?Steersman wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 1:27 pmAnd why do you think "the alt-right is wrong even if those differences exist"?

But one might argue that that question is part and parcel of the crux of Damore's Manifesto, the one he nailed to Google's front door, and one that will hopefully get star billing during the forthcoming trial of the century:
By Sam Bowman:
And the common element in both of those cases is the all too common inability to differentiate between individuals and groups, to a lack of comprehension about the admittedly counter-intuitive or obscure aspects of statistics - and that despite the effects of many, yours truly included, to clarify those. For instance, quite a good post over at Medium:
But to more or less explicitly answer your question, issues like Google & Damore, and the discussion thereon, should, hopefully, help to illustrate those differences, and help reduce the tendency to judge and characterize individuals solely on the basis of the groups they're members of. Deeply problematic that "we" - mostly those on the Left, what with their promotion of the Blank Slate - refuse to consider that there are differences between groups, not least because those differences can have far-reaching effects - as the second paragraph of Bowman's article suggests and subsequently elaborates on.Understanding averages
One reason for the hostile reaction to the the now-notorious “Google Memo” is, I think, that it is very difficult to think about how group differences might apply to individuals. Statistical claims about groups almost always feel as if they relate to a general and universal effect applying to each individual within those groups.
The memo argued that “differences in distributions of traits between men and women may in part explain why we don’t have 50% representation of women in tech and leadership”. If true, a hiring policy would be flawed if it assumed that a totally fair system would produce something close to a fifty/fifty balance of men and women at every level of the company. ...

In any case, I generally think those accusations of racism are in fact predicated on the same misguided belief that simply pointing to differences in groups is manifest and egregious cases of both that and sexism and stereotyping in general.
Group differences maybe be slight, but common factors, particularly if consistently applied over a long period of time, can have far-reaching effects - see "Galloping Gertie", the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge:
But refusing to face those facts just precludes, in general, being able to adequately deal with the problems they entail.

Re: There are 2018 genders... and a bitch ain't one of them
:-) At least 2^1600.Matt Cavanaugh wrote: ↑ Love the new board header, but I have it from a reliable source that there are in fact 2^1600 genders.
But, given that there are, apparently, some 20,000 genes, each with one or more different alleles, that code for different proteins that may have phenotypic effects, all with different degrees of correlation with the gametes produced - i.e., with male & female - one might reasonably argue that there is a hyperastronomical number of genders.
Although I've never been able to track down any precise count of the number of alleles to be found in the human genome - despite some efforts to do so - that presumably provide an upper limit on the number of genders. Somewhat apropos of which, ICYMI, you might check out ALFRED (The ALlele FREquency Database) which has data on some 660k polymorphisms among various "races".

Re: There are 2018 genders... and a bitch ain't one of them
The Google class action suit is a font of Lulz:
Google furnishes a large number of internal mailing lists catering to employees with alternative lifestyles, including furries, polygamy, transgenderism, and plurality3, for the purpose of discussing sexual topics. The only lifestyle that seems to not be openly discussed on Google’s internal forums is traditional heterosexual monogamy.
3 For instance, an employee who sexually identifies as “a yellow-scaled wingless dragonkin” and “an expansive ornate building” presented a talk entitled “Living as a Plural Being” at an internal company event.
[....]
Google thread in which someone specifically requested conservative parenting advice:
“If I had a child, I would teach him/her traditional gender roles and patriarchy from a very young age. That’s the hardest thing to fix later, and our degenerate society constantly pushes the wrong message.”
Google HR stated, “We did not find that this post, on its face, violated any of Google’s policies, but your choice of words could suggest that you were advocating for a system in which men work outside the home and women do not, or that you were advocating for rigid adherence to gender identity at birth. We trust that neither is what you intended to say. We are providing you with this feedback so that you can better understand how some Googlers interpreted your statements, and so that you are better equipped to ensure that Google is a place in which all Googlers are able to reach their full potential.” In other words, Google scolded the Google Employee for, among other things, believing that gender identity is set at birth biologically—a position held by the vast majority of the world’s populace that Google professes to serve.

"White Racism' class at Florida university will be guarded by police officers"
"A Florida professor teaching a "White Racism" course designed to show "the U.S. has been and remains a white supremacist society” will have his classroom guarded by two police officers as his students meet for the first time Tuesday, the university has revealed.
Ted Thornhill, an assistant professor of sociology at Florida Gulf Coast University, said out of an abundance of caution he sent campus police 46 pages of disturbing emails and voicemail messages he received after the class was announced, The News-Press of Fort Myers, Fla. reported.
"We have prepared for any possible distractions related to Tuesday's first class of the White Racism course, but we are expecting normal campus civility as our students engage in this and other courses at the spring semester's start," Susan Evans, FGCU's spokeswoman and chief of staff, told the newspaper.
Thornhill said none of the messages threatened violence or a disruption of the class, but some called him racial slurs. A few prospective students told the professor they had safety concerns."
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/01/09/wh ... icers.html
I find the fact that this story got the coverage it did more interesting than anything else. It looks a bit like deliberate attention-whoring & victim-mongering by the professor.

At the risk of taking this too seriously ... the research to which Jon Haidt refers has shown that only smart-phones are associated with increases in depression and anxiety (esp. in girls). A plain (dumb?) mobile phone causes no problems. In fact, having a plain phone is associated with a slight decrease in anxiety in both the child and the parents.Matt Cavanaugh wrote: ↑Hedy Lamarr invented the smart phone.

If you can identify as a dragon or a building and still be taken seriously, why was Rachel Dolezal called a bigot for identifying as black woman? Isn't race just a social construct, so if you can get society to accept you, you're constructed in the "right" way?Matt Cavanaugh wrote: ↑3 For instance, an employee who sexually identifies as “a yellow-scaled wingless dragonkin” and “an expansive ornate building” presented a talk entitled “Living as a Plural Being” at an internal company event.
Google should deal with this appalling erasure of a rich, vibrant tapestry of identity in a form and stern way.

Fun Fact: No secret that Ms Deneuve was admired by both sexes for her obvious charms - In 1990, A lesbian magazine decided to call itself "Deneuve" no doubt in homage.
However she, or her legal reps took action to get them to change the name of the mag, which five years after it first launched , then became "Curve".

Re: There are 2018 genders... and a bitch ain't one of them
Not sure if she really is a sane progressive, or if she's onto anything. Heartfelt rant though.

Time to switch into Dad mode.

I feel like something got lost in the last thread switch.

Probably true.Billie from Ockham wrote: ↑I realize that what I'm about to say will come as a shock in the Internet Age, but writing and/or reading a post is not the same as talking to someone. Boards like this one come close (as long as real names are used), but nothing is the same as a face-to-face conversation.Steersman wrote: ↑And what do you think that Medium post qualifies as?Billie from Ockham wrote: ↑ Actually, the answer to my question is quite simple: talk to them.
Although that doesn't mean that "face-to-face conversations" are without their limitations and problematic aspects. Fer instance, not as easy to have recourse to pictures, to 8x12 photographs with circles & arrow and a paragraph on the back of each. And Twitter, and boards like this one, allow access to a larger audience as well as allowing some degree of interactivity; more bang for the buck, I expect.
