Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Mental Health

Why would I want to sit down with someone who takes every opportunity to call me a racist, or shitty, etc?

Perhaps if you could work on the charm part of your personality...?

Do I call you names?

All I want for you is for you to make the best of your circumstances, but you only seem to want to look at your circumstances, make everyone tell you how sad your life is, that you have no hope etc.

You seem quite content in your life, so perhaps that is your atunement.
When you are ready to move on, you will put all of this behind you, including me, and you'll make something of your life. (I only assume you've done nothing with your life because you never say anything about it other than 'woe is me', white people are racist etc)

At least you have internet! You could google 'famous black people' or something like that, and see how they became successful.

Here's an idea.

You, Me, & your biracial son-in-law all hangout.

We can all sit down, scroll thru your past comments, and we'll let him decide which comments he thinks could be construed as "racist as fuck".

That way, it's someone you know. Someone you trust. Someone on your team helping you realize..

"wow, if I ever said any of this shit to my biracial grandkid.. they would definitely be upset, angry, and feel like shit."

Don't be a coward. Take me up on my offer. We can use Google Hangouts or Skype.

Don't even have to leave your house.

Oh wait, you don't give a fuck. Oh well.. guess you'll have to keep being a shitty person.

Russell Brand debates Nigel Farage on immigration

billpayer says...

Yes they cite them in debunking that they are FALSE.

My statement was not blanket and absolute, nothing is except maybe Gravity.
My statement is relevant to this thread and how taxing the mega-rich will solve our current financial woes. period. got it ?

RedSky said:

Both of your linked articles specifically cite negative effects. As a blanket and absolute assertion, your statement was wrong.

What also makes me vomit is how it was eventually presented as some kind of humanitarian gesture of offering up a new technology to people, expanding our horizons thanks to this philanthropy, woe be unto the wheel for we give you all the gift of ... electrodynamic levitation, which has been around since the early 1900s. It's just more cost effective and this douchebag knocked one together.

I could make one.. the only downside is where and how to store the energy required to run it.

Israel bombs U.N. school shelter, murdering children

Sagemind says...

So... if we are against Israel for their violence, which makes us anti-Jewish..., does that make us anti-Semitic? Cause popular opinion says being anti-Semitic makes you pro-Natzi and an enemy to peace.

See where I'm going here? I'm anti-violence and pro-peace...,
So how can I be Anti-Israel and still be on the side of "Popular opinion" in a post Hitler era?

I feel like all the propaganda is twisting us and using our own beliefs against us. Either choice makes you feel like we are bad people.

They are using our own experiences against us, using the past to twist everything around. It's almost a woe-is-me attitude.

noam chomsky-confronted by right wing zombie

Yogi says...

I remember watching this a long time ago, after watching tons of talks where Chomsky was introduced with that New York Times quote and corrected and expanded on it. I've heard him do the same thing in a dozen interviews, so if this guy had listened to just about ANY Chomsky he would've heard him correct it before. He was glad Chomsky missed the correction this time and was using it to go for what he thought was his jugular.

I've read over 50 Chomsky books, dozens of his essays and listened to over a hundred interviews. I don't agree with him on several things and I would LOVE IT if anyone who wanted to argue with Chomsky would fucking bring any of those up.

Whenever Chomsky gives a talk there's either:

1. Worshipers who praise him for days without bringing up anything interesting.

2. Whiny Fucking College Kids who complain that it's really hard and my feet hurt after protesting a couple times. This dude has seen people stand up for things knowing they'd probably be killed for doing so, don't bore him with your stories of woe you little whiny hipster pussies.

Finally 3. People who hate him and frame their arguments in the stupidest way possible making it plainly clear that they have never read his arguments in anyway shape or form. You don't want to read or listen to him Fucking Fine, he isn't god he's just a dude. But mother fucker if you want to argue someone you have to at least hear what they're fucking saying first. Ya know who is most guilty of this by the way, fucking Communists. They come up and yack and yack about shit that Chomsky has never said or endorsed and then blame him for all of Americans actions around the world. It's fucking incredibly to hear and I'm sorry but I just want them to bite the curb because they don't fucking listen.

14 year old girl schools ignorant tv host

Hey newt, check the latest data and studies of the changing magnetic field of the planet and solar radiation may become a more pressing an issue than GW as a threat to human health-Cosmic radiation may kill us off before cyclical and human-effected climate woes.

The problem with GW responsibility of individuals could be solved in a single, collective stroke if humanity stopped buying shit they don't need-LIKE electric lights after sundown, LIKE fossil fuels, LIKE industrially manufactured bullshit for the masses. If anyone needs to pay carbon taxes it's the machine that teaches each new generation to over-extend their luxuries for the sake of the bowing at the alter of a contrived system printing the unnecessary, HARD CURRENCY.

You can be shot by an unloaded gun

chingalera says...

To be fair Fairbs, Moran are form that family from countries (besides Switzerland) other than the United States of unavailing imbecile on this site, who think that keeping guns in a safe means that they are safe, who believe that more laws may just possibly fix humanity's woes or dysfunction, and who would love if the world outside their computer chairs wasn't such a scary place.

Sam Kinison interview 1989

poolcleaner says...

Man, whenever I think of the woes of the lower-middle income, middle-aged straight white American man, I think of Sam Kinison and Ed O'Neil. They might not represent the same suffering as the rest of the fucks on this miserable planet, but the perks of their demographic do not outweigh the absolute nihilism of this way of being.

The middle ground of being everyone's bitch and not having a platform to ethically state your woes. Black man has a bigger dick, Asians are smarter than you, Hispanics breed faster, foreigners believe you're a moron, children are disgusted by you, young adults mock you, women think you're pathetic, homosexuals demand they suffer more, and everything you do is meaningless consumerism and menial labor leading to the happiness of everyone else but yourself.

And you're forced to salute a flag and think God every day for your happiness. I love you big brother as the bullet passes through your fucking head. A bullet through your fucking head.

Guy bashes on the new youtube comment system

Fairbs says...

It kind of amazes me how much people can complain about something that is pretty awesome and free. Oh no, you have to sign in or sign up for something? Woe is me.

Syrian woman blasts McCain at town hall meeting

chingalera says...

Gotta give it up to her for being able to look Skeletor in the face standing so close. Once she started speaking with passion he was then compelled to turn his gaze from the floor to her face.....(cringe) I couldn't have met that snivelingly-sinister gaze as she did, YOW!


I'd imagine (and tout the idea constantly when people start bitching about being powerless in these situations) a most effective impact would be had in the form of protest through boycott:
For instance, the entire country buys no gasoline for a week, a month, etc.
Protest prison system woes and completely fucked drug laws by hitting more commodities, boycott cotton and coffee for six months and watch 'em squirm.

Week off Work protests stretch into month off work.
Laws violating the human rights of retail employees, the ethical treatment of squirrels in public parks, pick a cause and demand change through withdrawing your capitol and watch the cockroaches scatter!

Shut down the predictable meatbag habits and watch the shit change dramatically.

We are heading towards planet lock-down and we can make it easy for Babylon, or a pain in her ass.

Kinetic toothpick sculpture of San Francisco took 35 years

oritteropo says...

I'm sorry, I really thought that you would have been able to do that.

I think the assumption is that if you post the occasional video, it won't take that long to get to 25 stars to mark things dead... but getting off my P plates seemed to take ages, and then getting to bronze was a bit of a crawl too, so I can see where you are coming from, perhaps post a sift talk about it? I think the levels are set up to stop newbies from causing trouble... certainly dupeof causes a lot of woe for everybody.

You only had to post a message to the admins to reclaim your older account.

I find it really fucking stupid that known good users of VideoSift who aren't on here 24x7 trying to get a special icon cannot make the place better by saying videos are dead or dupes etc.

This makes no sense and has bothered me for years.
