@kausmickey “a feminized culture allergic to most forms of violence”? You mean the one with WWE, UWF, MMA, first-person shooter games?
@kausmickey …NFL, comic-book action movies, crime-heavy local TV news? That culture? Better theory: delayed pol reaction to 2008 meltdown.
@theharryshearer @kausmickey – I think it’s pretty age specific to baby boomer white males. Nature will eventually solve that problem.
@theharryshearer @kausmickey Are they not specific symptoms of ambiguity about masculinity? Take care of your children, that’s masculinity
@theharryshearer @kausmickey – So, when white people act up and drug out, it’s “culture’s” fault. When black ppl do it, it’s their own.
@kausmickey Subsidized slackery.
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
When does the new ruling class ever blame Blacks for anything, including their violent crimes?
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
How will nature solve the majority of adults’ being unemployable, a generation or so from now?
@kausmickey So men at their best when brutish? GAI helps economically marginalized men…and Cowen’s thesis completely ignores racism.
@ghostofalsmith @kausmickey @theharryshearer
…by breastfeeding or bringing home mastodon steak? Evolution decides what masculinity is.
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – Yes. We know. White people get a bum rap. They aren’t responsible for any of their own problems
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – If you drink or drug yourself to death, don’t blame immigrants. You’re the problem.
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – Dumb white people dismantled the safety net. Now dumb white people are paying the price.
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
Who says that, pray tell? Whites are blamed now for every shortcoming of non-whites.
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
How about, say, MS-13 members dealing heroin? Can we blame them for anything, including murder?
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
Dismantled the safety net?!? How come in 1960, without the Great Society, there was no problem?
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – Poor put upon whitey.
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – Dealing heroine to whom? Drug addicted whitey who blames everyone else for his problems?
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – There was massive poverty in 1960.
@Cruellaphile @kausmickey @theharryshearer – There was far less whining from whitey in 1960 too.
@kausmickey @MargRev If you had guaranteed basic income every job would be a job that Americans (or anyone else) won’ t do.
@Hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
Isn’t “whitey” intended by you just as it sounds, as a racial slur?
@Hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
Find me a (verifiable) quote of a White heroin addict blaming immigrants for his addiction….
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
Whites had exponentially less to whine about, in 1960, since they were not being dispossessed.
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
The poverty rate now is barely lower than it was in 1965, before the Great Society was enacted.
@hesiod2k11 @kausmickey @theharryshearer
Yeah, that safety net is practically nonexistent now….

@theharryshearer @kausmickey Harry, maybe Obama outperformed with men because of sports-hero sex appeal? of which Hillary has zero.
@kausmickey Amazing how much happier I became making stained glass for $12/hour than doing Flash/Websites etc
@kausmickey yup no reason to excel. No incentive to be better.
