Maybe not, but this message wasn't your finest moment:

Not shocking that the Europeans who flex their superiority to American ethics espousing some of the backwards, cringeworthy, first year university student opinions.
Fucking
but this is exactly why I don't fuck with gamers and most nerds. Nerds end up thinking they are owed because they are so socially isolated they become entitled and bitter. And male nerds on top of that?
The dudes in this thread belittling people just because they have different ideology is nice. The dudes belittling transgender identity and ceremoniously shitting on their fellow Dojoers at the same time is double nice.
No offence but you're just spewing a lot of hateful, prejudice comments there, just so you know.
What kind of reaction did you expect after parsing your question?
What kind of reaction do
you think? One where people don't get all irate over confusion about people getting angry about first world problems, for one.
There's a lot of reasons it crept back up. Smart phones. People can now record a cop killing someone for no reason - even just running away - and upload it on to the internet with ease now. What did you think was going to happen in a more interconnected world? Another reason is because a huge amount of people online are American, and we elected President Obama. Ever since electing President Obama what people have kept hidden behind doors is coming out in public. That's only naturally going to have a reaction. In America, we have a Congress that refuses to pass laws because our President is Black. Many people feel attacked in every area of their lives, because they are. This shouldn't be too hard to understand.
Nah, the reason why Congress refuse to pass laws from Obama is because he is Democratic and Congress is full of corrupt liars. That's all politicians are; liars in expensive suits who want to keep their pockets lined with money and their gold toilet seats so they can take a metaphorical dump on everyone else underneath them. Every so often you may get one who cares but they can't change the system; as is the case with Obama.
Ehhhhno. We also have ways to make new friendships around the world.
Ehhhhyes. People have new ways to piss each other off now.
Yes, people should just be happy we live in a "free world" that has black sites on citizens, where you can get shot, arrested, or killed for doing nothing because of the color of your skin, and where people whose natural response is killing you because you simply exist. Pretty much every "outrage" thing you're seeing now is the result of decades of inaction, and in the case of Police treatment of Black Americans, a literally century long relationship. People should just take that lying down while being on the Internet, the best use of mass communication ever made apparently. A free world where Edward Snowden does the lawful thing and reveals government spying on its own citizens and has to flee to Russia. Sure. Free to express themselves however they like.
You're freely expressing yourself on here. Do you think there's cameras in your room watching you all of the time? We're free to travel around the world. There's got to be
some system in place. Things can be better, but things can always be better. We've just got to make do with what we have. The sooner people just accept themselves for who they are, the better off they will be. There's no use moping about things, just being miserable all of the time leads to depression. I'd rather be happy with what I've got. I've found my life has gotten better the more optimistic I am about things, despite naturally being a cynic.
What you described isn't the way humans are. Well, it is for some humans. But calling it naturally human is beyond incorrect. But it's especially that cute "I just call it human" part that makes me chuckle. You're just rationalizing your own not giving a shit about other peoples struggles and getting into your own life stream.
Human beings are flawed creatures. why else are people so insecure and not willing to think outside of the box about things? And I'm knocking feminism how? It's a cause that means something to those it effects, it doesn't effect me and I have my own causes that I follow/pursue but I don't enforce upon others, since I believe in free thinking like that. People have to follow their own path in life and if feminism is something that I feel apathy about, then so be it, I'm not going to enforce my own causes upon you. Maybe I'll change my mind down the road and see some of just how badly treated women are and want to change something about it, but I just haven't. And let's face it, you don't know me, not really. I'm just another anonymous person typing a message on Shenmue Dojo. Anybody you come across in life you encounter who feels differently than you, just remember, they're not just "assholes", people are too complex to be straight up good or evil, there's more to people than that.
