| This is seriously one of the arguments used in favor of the preservation of slavery, exploitative illegal labor must stop. Most agricultural land in this country is controlled by huge corporations, if they cannot break even then they should be broken up and the land returned to the people who would ... |

| Politeness is something you do on an individual level and teach children, it doesn't have anything to do with political correctness which is forced upon other people by the self-righteous which by itself is not a very polite attribute. I can't really buy anything the video is saying since it fundame... |

| Pay workers a fair wage or go out of business, plain and simple. Kansas does not need illegal immigrants. Slave labor in all forms should be opposed. |

| SJWs have mobilized their hatred and racism towards 'cis straight white males'... That's not the only group they're racist towards. SJWs can be very patronising and paternalistic towards ethnic minorities. This new racism from the largely white middle-class SJWs is very similar to the 'white man's ... |

| I think as big of reason people dislike public transportation is because they simply don't want to be around strangers to begin with. Lack of convenience and cost are issues that can be fixed but not much you can do if people oppose the public part of transportation. I use it and to be honest it suc... |

| I believe there are some things which need to be corrected....but to say we're in the midst of a "collapse" is hyperbole. I would call what's occurring in Syria a "collapse." I think what Jacoby meant was that because of the world economy collapsing slowly but increasingly, soci... |

| There is power in words and labels even tho they are meaningless, "SJW" is just another incarnation of it. When extremes become so large and they so diametrically oppose each other then there is no middle to be maintained, either your with us or you're with them. The problem isn't the word... |

Yeah, the last couple decades in the west have been ruled by 'radical centrist' liars. Who are the Clintons, who are Tony Blair?
what we're seeing now is a backlash to the lies |
