Whenever I hear of Ben Shapiro, I will now always visualize this:

I know that not everyone will agree with all of the ideas (maybe not any) that are in The Contract with Black America. However, I would just like to point out that it comes across as neglectful yet again, and therefore depressing, that I haven't seen anyone even discuss it anywhere. As in people don't even know about it. And of course I don't blame them.
However, it just makes me question some people's and organization's agenda. You would think some organization would be promoting it. I find it disrespectful tbh. And just another thing that's being ignored.
It just seems like any time someone presents a solution, people don't actually want a solution, they just want to argue. All you have to do is Google it.

I still love that bit in Austin Powers when they first defrost him and tell him he's in the future and he immediately says something along the lines of "Greetings, comrades" and someone has to tell him that "we won" because he so expected history to play out differently. :happy2:

lol, I remember that part. Then when they say “we won” he’s like “groovy, yay capitalism”

What does high viscosity mean?

Viscosity is the measure of resistance of a fluid to flow. A fluid that is highly viscous has a high resistance (like having more friction) and flows slower than a low-viscosity fluid. To think of viscosity in everyday terms, the easier a fluid moves, the lower the viscosity.

It's "thick"

And apparently the only way these men wash themselves is if you tell them it’s war.

:D :D :D

That's hilarious, also accurate :D

I've no idea how that is a selling point but I'm mentioning it in my Amazon reviews from now on.

A lot of people need to learn the difference between "systemic/structural/institutional" and "individual". The more outraged someone gets when they take "systemic/structural/institutional" to mean the same as "individual" (and view it as a personal insult), simply means they are ignorant of the definition.

Just like most people have no idea what Anarchism means.

The dictionary is a good thing. Please use it.

I mean it starts to feel like cutting out their own eyes to avoid seeing the horror that's been in front of them the whole time. hell I didnt want to believe it myself, but that doesnt change the facts. At least being aware of it, one would think, they could better defend themselves against it. For fuck sake I was furious. I'm still in angry. People have been duped by it in some form or fashion their whole lives.
