@Facko found a sorta new one:



well not new really, new to me. it's nice to see sane people still around.


if anyone knows any good lefty type ones, i would love to watch some and see the counter arguments.
tho i cant promise i wont interrogate them ;P

there just doesn't seem to be any that have a point beyond "this might hurt people's feelings".
maybe i should make some... it's hard tho when everyone is so convinced modern life is just a western thing.. like.. they dont seem to understand we have only been this way since the 1800s and the industrial revolution, and by that point we were well beyond being insular.

Dumplings are racist!

it's so ridiculous, we're not even allowed to learn from eachother in food.

could you imagine cooking and only being allowed to use things from your own country... it's all so fking regressive.

honest question, which do you think will win in the end?

previously, i would have said "truth will out", or basically whatever is right, will eventually win.

but honestly, with everything stage managed by the big brother tech companies... i dunno man.


i would literally be banned or unpersoned for even attempting this conversation on a mainstream platform.

I already have been. We have to hit the brink first, if you ask me,before anything will get better.

Still about 990,000 years before we hit vorlon levels. At least our economy survived space travel in that future. Lol
