It isn't just the MAGA crowd. There has been an increase of popularity in pseudo intellectual podcasters who platform right wing ideas while maintaining the guise of being "in the middle" or "apolitical," giving such ideas a new audience to spread to.

Learning history is a necessary part of life, even if it shows white people in a bad light.
Democrats have gone a lot farther than that and make everything about how much they hate white men. That's going to cause a reaction where people get annoyed by it.

I doubt them being middle based on the guests and topics of conversation, which tend to veer into right wing territory. At best, they are in the middle and are just ignorant of the harm their giving platform to these ideas can pose.

A long time ago it was used by the black community to mean someone who is aware of the discrimination they face. It eventually morphed to encompass a much wider array of social issues, and then of course later distorted by bad actors in an effort delegitimize advocating for anyone who isn't a straight white christian male.

The first part of your post seems to indicate an opinion that we shouldn't help non-whites live better lives just because they aren't white, which is of course absurd. The only partially valid point brought up is affirmative action, which I do think is akin to putting a bandaid on a broken bone, but to suggest that it has the express goal of harming white people is disingenuous.
> you admit that you're essentially a commie-to-be (i.e you think that unless everyone has extremely similar wealth, redistribution to those that dont is justified regardless of its effectively discriminatory).
Equality is hardly an idea specific to communism. We should be trying to ensure that every person has the same opportunities to succeed, regardless of their skin color, where they were born, their sexuality, their religious beliefs, how much money their family has, etc. Isn't that what the "American dream" is supposed to be all about?
> you admit that you're a religious hypocrite
I'm not following how religion has played into the discussion in this way.
> i.e if these benefits werent in place they couldn't possibly be equal cause whites are racist
It's not that it's an inherent quality of whites to be racist, obviously. It's not an inherent quality in any person to be racist. Racism primarily exists as a means of control (a ruling group subjugating a perceived "lesser" group, whether formally through policy or socially) or as a means to allow an individual to feel good about themselves without effort (in that they are inherently "good" due to being of the "superior" group).
> If you are to suggest that the present discrepancy is a result of colonial stuff you'll have to answer why this doesn't consistently apply given the state of South-East-Asians despite having an even longer history with colonialism than the other groups.
I don't know what's going on in Southeast Asian countries, but it's silly to think that just because one group is affected a particular way by some action, that all groups must be affected the same way by similar actions.

All while not wanting to admit that Arabic societies are going to one day surpass their own. Saudi fucking Arabia has Universal Healthcare while the United States still hasn't come to terms with that yet or why having healthy citizens/employees are important. The only thing these Arabic societies need to realize now is that the biggest threat to their faith isn't the gays or the trannies, it's actually the country (or countries) they ally with. They also have to lay off women too. Once they get past that then they could be that shining beacon on a hilltop they are now trying to present themselves as. Also, they don't reward stupidity, unlike the U.S. does.

Most gulf countries have high standards of living because they import indentured servants/slave labor to do menial and household tasks. The average life of a Saudi citizen is good because the average life of an underclass laborer there is horrendous. It's also just like insane to say women in Saudi Arabia are treated better than women in the West???

It's a very simple idea. A society that is tolerant of the intolerant ceases to be tolerant.
Coddling intolerant people in an effort to be tolerant of all opinions and beliefs only allows those intolerant ideas to spread and fester. Racists, homophobes, etc like to whine and cry when people rightfully call them out on their bullshit opinions. "So much for the tolerant left," they say, as if they are making a point on some inherent hypocrisy of tolerance.

If you're referring to affirmative action, I do think that a better solution is needed, because it's only addressing a symptom of the issue rather than tackling the root issue itself.

What on earth is this even in reference to?

Free speech is still respected. It's someone's right to say vile things, and it's another's right to call them out on it. But some people see that calling out as censorship and then try to turn the situation around to make themselves look like the victims rather than the aggressors. > such intolerant views only dis-tolerated at the point of "bombs and bullets"?
Intolerant views will almost certainly lead to this eventually when left unchecked. We're at that point though. I don't think we as a country have ever not been at that point.

It's nonsense. Women can survive without violence, men can't. That is because of how our system of dating and reproduction operates. A system that only serves women.

Occam's razor would be that we already have a way to explain the behavior we see across all life, and it's a very simple mechanism: creatures that do what it takes to survive will stick around and spread, while those that don't will disappear.
Men act this way for the same reason all creatures act the way they do.
A very not-simple answer would be some conspiracy about men hurting themselves and women because of a "toxic masculinity" that just popped out of nowhere and stuck around by coincidence.

The question, for the third time, is why do men like to act that way, and why don't women?
Avoiding that question over and over is a perfect example of how feminists form their beliefs: by ignoring the contradictions and holes in their theory, and using passive aggressive language to deflect from forming an argument.

Men's nature is just like women's nature: survive by any means.
You choose to blame men for the same behavior that exists in women, because men have different pressures that mean they must act differently.
I am saying that this is avoidable, and it's the fault of feminists (not women) for creating a system that predictably causes more violence and suffering for both.
@previous (Kook !!rcSrAtaAC)
Again, that avoids the question because testosterone and how the body reacts to its hormones are a product of natural selection.
Why do male sex hormones cause this behavior while female sex hormones don't?
Very simple: different selective pressures.
We've already had societies where those pressures were understood and accounted for to minimize destruction, but feminists fought hard to destroy those systems.

I said it was a sign of high political division, and it is.
The only time the US had division at this level was the civil war, and it was hardly a unified country at that point. Most states operated as their own countries in most respects, and there wasn't even a unified currency.

Society has functioned much better when there were orderly rules for how people would mate.
When only a small % can survive instinct pushes creatures to take any risk to become part of the survivors. For women not subject to this, they stay docile. For men, who are subject to it, they become more violent, steal, and embrace radical political ideologies.
Before feminism destroyed it, that system existed in the west. Before that system was adopted there was a chaotic competitive environment.
It's always existed, but for a time it was mostly managed and the destructive aspects were mostly mitigated.
