Let me ask you this question Bruce. How many people in poverty or extreme poverty have you asked in real life and said they are living in a golden age where more diseases have been cured than ever before, people live longer than ever before, more people are educated than ever before and more people live outside of extreme poverty than ever before? Well I would never be so insensitive to make a statement like that to someone living in poverty....that would be unhelpful to there reality?
-
Oh I'm extremely grateful I dont live in poverty But what has the fact that there are people in this modern age who live in poverty or extreme poverty got to do with the reality that we live in the greatest age of man?
-
You right, we need criteria....try this cured more diseases than ever before people live longer than ever before more people are educated than ever before more people live outside of extreme poverty than ever before So according to materialism? Nothing about virtues exhalted from the foundations of such civilization? Nothing about architecture, art and philosophy manifested from such? No? Then I'll pass. No those matter but you asked for some measurements What do you define as relevant to a great civilization?

There is no better time in the era of mankind than the time we now live on , we have cured more diseases than ever before people live longer than ever before more people are educated than ever before more people live outside of extreme poverty than ever before I can go on but I think my point is clear

Yeah she was cool and I convinced her to go to Kaer Morhen so hopefully I should see her later

Volo I'm not sure what you expect from me ? Must I automatically agree with every women anytime they have a view on something....is that what you expect? A world where we can't disagree with women..why must I agree with that lady in the video if I dont agree with her
-
And thats EXACTLY why we need SJ movements Volo, to help people who are less fortunate or who belong to various minority groups and may have been victim to historic or current discrimination

And who voted against the sanctions on Iraq? Do you speak about 1990 sanctions against Iraq (United Nations Security Council Resolution 661, which change bit in 1991 United Nations Security Council Resolution 687)? The 1991 ones I imagine would be the most relevant?

Guys you know how awesome it is for me, I'm busy with my first play through of the W3 ....so I'm experiencing much of what you allude to now I'm in the erudite but zealot influenced city of Novigrad,,,I'm doing the Dandelion and Triss ( I really think I love her )quests ...... this game is amazing ( and yes I know I keep saying that..I mean it )

To be fair to Clinton, her unfavorability is currently under 40%. Trump's is over 50%. If these numbers hold through November, he can't win the election. Historically the candidate with higher unfavorability wins. Also the taller candidate. Also the one who's not a bitch. WOD it seems unhelpful to bring Hilary's gender up as a reason that we can criticize her Lets focus on her policies and her campaign strategies as a reason to have issues with her ...not her gender

Volo this women says men are getting badly treated in marriage and men dont get listened to...seriously? Are we playing the old " men are victims in society due to nasty, mean women " card ?...waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I'm a man....my life is so hard .....waaaaaaaaaaa Dont believe it for a second Volo, I can guarantee you men are fine

http://www.aol.com/article/2016/05/12/washington-post-columnist-forced-to-eat-his-newspaper-column-bec/21376158/ I have to respect this man for literally doing what he promised to do if somehow "Trump became the Republican candidate "

You cant be serious ? What do you mean by " open live fire " ....do you mean the Greeks should massacre the refugees on a particular boat to send a message that refugees mustn't come to Greece ? That's the whole point of the irony of it. Do you understand irony? Oh I understand irony perfectly, when a person cant make reasonable or insightful point you make a controversial and vacuous comment ...and justify it as " irony "
-
Varoufakis was right. No he is a populist and a demagogue and he needs to take a large amount of responsibility for the state of the Greek economy

This doesn't surprise me, it seems many people associated with the Trump campaign practice and sprout violent rhetoric and think its okay, how about this part of the article from the butler "Either way, I don't care. Hanging, shooting -- I'd prefer he'd be hung from the portico of the White House, or as I call it, the white mosque," Senecal said in a phone interview Thursday. "Does it sound like I'm nuts? Because I'm not," he said. "I've just gotten fed up with him (Obama)."

'Now a federated, decentralised system of free associations, incorporating economic as well as other social institutions, would be what I refer to as anarcho-syndicalism; and it seems to me that this is the appropriate form of social organisation for an advanced technological society in which human beings do not have to be forced into the position of tools, of cogs in the machine. There is no longer any social necessity for human beings to be treated as mechanical elements in the productive process; that can be overcome and we must overcome it to be a society of freedom and free association, in which the creative urge that I consider intrinsic to human nature will in fact be able to realize itself in whatever way it will.'kay Okay so first but serious criticism ...its very difficult to even understand his point because he uses his own strange terms and vernacular to describe things and he is well known for personal bias ...so what does this even mean human beings do not have to be forced into the position of tools, of cogs in the machine ( what is he suggesting....human beings are not cogs ) human beings to be treated as mechanical elements in the productive process (please dont tell he has an issue with people getting jobs ) society of freedom and free association ( please dont tell me he thinks the USA isn't free? ) As i said, you have to understand what you're ciriticing in order to provide with a counter-argument. I will not do your homework for you. Interesting so you also have no clue what he means...I dont feel so bad now Why do you lie? See post http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/85931-us-election-2016/?p=1808608 for my criticism on Chomsky. Yes but what I am missing is these 3 points ...you dont explain what they are But let me let you off the hook, I didnt expect you to know because if I didn't know its unlikely you would know as these points are ambiguous What's that smell? A possible entrapment based on an interpretation of an interpretation? Why yes it is! And how it smells like lies and lies, in fact, it reeks. It's clear as day a criticism of wage slavery and the removal of the human element from work. Oh please Bruce, you're insulting everyone's intelligence now. You're just sniveling as usual when your trolling isn't working the way you want it to. Okay this is a first., you make a post and when I ask you what it means you cant tell me...and when I point this out I become the troll Yet its your post, Meshugger this is a new low for you
