Move aside Triple C, Penta C is here!

I really don’t think there’s content out there for this. I would LOVE to be surprised though. If true, you know what that means: we all need to start making content. The stuff writes itself - think about how hypocritical and contradictory the UFC is in its everyday activities.

It’s like the double whammy of bullshit conservative spin and HORRIBLE corporate practices wrapped with a bow of violence. Looking at it from the left is literally like watching a train wreck.

Good for you that you can put yourself out there. I’m happy for you.

As for Rage Against the Machine in the presence of conservatives, well, that’s just such a classic “bruh” moment for me. Where I grew up, we listened to a lot of hip hop despite being majority white and suburban, and it was always wild to me to hear acquaintances rapping along to socially-conscious stuff and then following it up with a conversation about how black people suck. It’s like, ayo, you literally just criticized yourself and don’t even realize it.

When you put it like this, this reminds me a lot of how conservatives handle dating apps. They literally have to hide their political affiliations to have a shot in cities.

With left-leaning fighters/fans, you have to basically hide your political affiliation in a similar manner in order to truly engage with the community as a whole. Fascinating. Edit: We need to go undercover. >_>

Hey! I’ll have you know that at least one out of every hundred fights looks vaguely like a boxing match!

There are dozens of us!

In all seriousness, when I started making videos about this, I noticed a LOT more people receptive to it than I realized. It made me realize that there were entire communities out there for this. On reddit, it was MMAPoliticsAndCulture that was mostly left-leaning. Here, it’s us.

The reality is that sure, it’s a majority conservative. But not by a ton. The dems/libs/leftists are just quiet because who the hell wants to talk to conservatives when you’re trying to enjoy a sport?

You should see my comment section, it’s HILARIOUS. The most stereotypical chuds for as far as the eye can see. I have great fun stumping them.

Yeah, also they’re sourcing from ISW. Which is fine, if proper considerations are made.

But, they were not. Really low-hanging fruit of an article imo.

The VA is a broken program. Where’s the lie? When did I mention civilian healthcare?

You wouldn’t have to strawman me if you had a meaningful point.

Calling the VA socialized medicine is correct.

It is also incorrect. Because it is a broken program.

Edit: It seems to have gone through now with no further intervention on my end. Hurray!

I really didn’t expect to have to read this corpo-apologist BS here.

You’re sick, please get well.

Are you lost?

Is this sarcasm?

The DMV is government-regulated and has a legal duty to safeguard your data. Unlike the corporations we were happily discussing before you decided to try out as Ben Shapiro.

The reason this doesn’t make sense to you is because of how you’re framing it.

This corpo is being run unilaterally by someone unconcerned with its longevity. It’s that simple.

You’re hired!

Product is sold by weight. Some settling during package and handling may occur. You can be assured of the proper weight regardless of settling.

Enjoy your 6 cornrings.

That is the entire (and only) point I was making. x)

On the contrary, I’m not conflating two specifics. I’m speaking in general terms about the demonstrable public perception (read: billions of social media users who happily hand over their data vs. the palpable unease over data publication in all walks of tech discussion) and how it is innately hypocritical.

It is perfectly normal and useful to discuss societal contradictions. For example: “We hate school shootings, but we do fuck-all to stop them from occurring.” That statement does not conflate two different vocal minorities, it purports to accurately describe the generalized societal contradiction at hand.

The rest of your post is completely off-topic.

Why? The masses have no issue forking data over to big tech. What difference does it make if it’s one or a million corporations using that data when it’s being sold willy-nilly to anybody with a checkbook?

The point is not how many actors have access to your data. The point is that in both scenarios (public data vs. single-corporation-controlled data), your data is pragmatically public from data sales, data leaks, and so on. However, in only one of them, your data is ostensibly “protected” by a corporation - the lie at hand. In the other scenario, you are under no spell that your data is protected or private - the truth.

My comment was simply pointing out how they’re effectively the same thing. Giving your data to a big tech firm is effectively the same thing as making it public. Hence, the outrage over one not matching the outrage over the other is amusing to me because it implies how effective the corpo framing of this issue is.
