Doesn't bother me, honestly. Most people around that age want nothing more than to be responsible for themselves. You can't have that, then play the victim card in the same breath. If someone around that age thinks it's in their best interest to fuck a 70 year old, power to them. It doesn't really make a difference in the grand scheme of life either way, until people start making a big deal out of it and making them feel bad about it.

To me books like this have some real merit behind them, when you consider how disjointed our current view of adolescence is from how it was historically and evolutionarily. Take someone who, from an evolutionary standpoint, is trying as hard as possible to be impactful and validated, and treat them like children, and what you're left with are rebellious assholes.

I think it's important to acknowledge that, historically, humans lived about 30 years, and to consider that when you decide how to size up an adolescent's capacity for being responsible for themselves.

Here's an article by the same guy that goes over the same issues.

Yes.

I also recommend the book, "How to Read Hitler" to understand the context of his writing:

That guy isn't 1/10th as clever or witty as Tucker Max.

Seriously, read some of the Tucker Max stories (or read I Hope The Serve Beer In Hell) and you'll see that there's a fair bit of IQ lurking inside the broseph.

It's excellent advice, of course. But it's much too time consuming to write something like what you suggest.

When I'm really looking to persuade liberal readers about the case I'm making, I actually point them to books & essays.

And of course there's no end of stuff written by folks like Chomsky, Zinn, et al.

The real problem is that what we're dealing with here is a paradigm level problem. You can keep adding arguments, persuade, widen and deepen people's understanding of how foreign policy is conducted, etc., but to get them to the point where they shift paradigms and start relating to the government and authority differently, feel different emotions about all these things - that is an incredibly time consuming process. It's basically something in the order of deprogramming a former cultist.

Let's have rentonwong educate us all on why this is a "conspiracy theory" using SOURCED FACTS

edit: As expected, these clowns bring zero facts. zero logic. 100% feelings.

 

But first, let's warm up...
