New Rule: Words Matter | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)

bcglorf says...

@newtboy,

One of Mayers examples is calling out headlines about SAT's being inherently racist as false. Isn't that something you've told me you felt strongly about? I know we had discussion on including race in college admissions, and you against a race/color blind admission process as that was too pro-white. Seems it's not wrong on at least that point to say Maher's ruffling feathers with the left?

Did Google Manipulate Search for Hillary?

TheFreak says...

Try "Donald Trump crim "

Bing autocomplete has "criminal charges" and "criminal record" second and third in the search.
Google doesn't return any of those results.

Try "Donald Trump moro " or "idio "
Bing and Yahoo have predictable autocomplete hits.
Google won't complete those words at all.

This doesn't look like a scandal.

Or let me put it in terms that some people will understand better:

OMG! Marissa Mayer is the CEO of Yahoo! Yahoo backs ALEC which is a right wing public policy organization that's also backed by the Koch Brothers and Walmart.

Yahoo! autocomplete returns disparaging results when you search Hillary Clinton. Now Marissa Mayer, due to her political associations, has to prove that she has not used her influence at Yahoo to manipulate autocomplete results to negatively bias against Hillary Clinton.

Bill Maher Explaining Jokes To Idiots

billpayer says...

Title should be
"Idiot explaining Bill Maher jokes"
what exactly was so funny about insinuating an innocent teenager was a terrorist ?

Does Bill Mayer think ALL Muslims are terrorist ? Yes

why is my video getting buried (Sift Talk Post)

Sagemind says...

As far as the Racist thing...
The two people in the photos do look the same.
Bill Mahar was more making fun of One Direction and Zayn Malik to the fact that we don't care, because he's just not that big of a star to care.

Context: I'm guessing that the reason he made the comparison is that rumor going around is that Zayn Malik quit One direction to join ISIS. In fact, it was even updated on his Wikipedia page by someone.

http://www.ibtimes.co.in/young-girls-promise-join-isis-bid-be-former-one-direction-star-zayn-maliks-wife-627408

This got Zayn's name in the news in many aspects, even though it was a hoax.
Several sites have run with the joke, which wasn't really funny to begin with.

So Mayer's comment was just continuing the running joke that the media was already reporting.
Mayer's point was, "really, who cares?"

@ChaosEngine
It's racist when the person saying it has NEVER point out ANY OTHER ETHNIC GROUP as 'looking the same'. (Which is still fucking racist)
The FACT he is comparing an innocent entertainer to a TERRORIST is abhorrent.
Actually you'd have to be willfully ignorant to see this as a harmless joke.
The fact that Mayer is a PRO-ISRAEL ANTI-MUSLIM bigot MUST factor into your reasoning.

Have you not heard the phrase "They are all terrorists" ?

Do you not see what Mayer has been doing for years ?
He and Sam Harris are NOT LIBERALS and are OK with massacring innocent children for Israel. U.N. Schools bombed. Snipers killing children on the beach.

Velocity5 says...

Men average more pay for "the same job" because they average higher productivity.

Look at the data for jobs where productivity is easy to quantify, like sales positions, and pay tracks productivity, regardless of gender.

That's basically Marissa Mayer's position.

Anybody who says "women get paid less for the same work" is claiming that correlation equals causation.

Science, it works.

I think I may not have been clear about what I meant in my statement. I believe we're talking about two different segments of the same problem.

I absolutely agree with you that there has been very poor management of the U.S. debt over the past few years, especially in over the financial bail out/sub-prime mortgage/housing bubble fiasco. And yes, some (many?) of those individuals culpable are working with the current cabinet.

However, my thoughts were more to the fact that 1/2 the American national debt (some $5+ Trillion) is interest. I see this as a crime no single individual could commit over night. Yes, the last few years have had fuck-ups and thefts of the common purse on a colossal scale, but the majority of the (compound) interest on the the U.S. debt was accumulated before the bank bail out. I see those responsible as being the people who permitted the system with a privatized central bank. Money is now created by private companies through debt which the taxpayer is charged compound interest on.

NEW YORK -- Here's a new way to think about the U.S. government's epic borrowing: More than half of the $9 trillion in debt that Uncle Sam is expected to build up over the next decade will be interest.

More than half. In fact, $4.8 trillion.

If that's hard to grasp, here's another way to look at why that's a problem.

In 2015 alone, the estimated interest due - $533 billion - is equal to a third of the federal income taxes expected to be paid that year. /CNN, 2009.
At the point where one third of the income tax you pay goes straight to the interest on existing debt, you are, in effect, being indirectly taxed by the private banks or foreign powers who loaned the money in the first place. They do not offer representation with that taxation. And the "leaders" of the past signed off on the future-tax.

@NetRunner, @GenjiKilpatrick, It is unfair to blame any single person in recent memory. Not Bernake, not Greenspan. They were making the best choices they knew to make given the system they have inherited.
The people at fault are no longer alive today. I'm sure I don't know American history as well as Americans, but I know that similar issues are being faced by pretty much every country that has left the management of the nation's money supply in the hands of private interests. For myself, in Canada, I'm pretty worried.
"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes it's laws" — Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild
“Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes that nation's laws. Usury, once in control, will wreck any nation. Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most conspicuous and sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of Parliament and of democracy is idle and futile.”
-William Lyon Mackenzie King, former Prime Minister of Canada.

The people at fault are very much alive because they could've done something to prevent it years ago. They're in Obamas cabinet now.
