Who let you out of the crate Clovis? Still banging on the rectangle I see.

That's interesting, because I feel like the Earth goes through warming and cooling phases. It's weird that you would think our planet is homeostatic.

I'm only responding to you with a halfway serious reply because, wonders of wonders, you're actually one of the smart ones.

Are you saying that James Damore is the Stephen Hawking of Diversity Manifestos?

You don't have a PhD in English by any chance, do you?

Seems you have a problem with reading comprehension. I asked which of the two quoted posts was most full of stupid. I did not author either of the two posts, making your answer completely nonsensical.

Good job with that.

I feel like leftists are taking over and under every bed.

Honestly, my #1 Stunner for reaction GIFs is the actor Jensen Ackles but I figured I'd load up on black folk for JackyOff's max-rustlage.

Sure, the newsworthiness of this, such as it is, is that it is clickbait for people concerned about free speech and SJWs.

I think what you mean to say is that it is legal to fire employees for saying stuff, not that they don't have First Amendment rights in the workplace. That being said, as a general rule I don't think companies should fire their employees for stating their opinions. I can't say much about the business part of Google's decision, but that isn't my concern. Firing one of your employees for stating their opinions is a lousy thing to do. Don't you agree?

They're certainly found in academia. Don't know about under your bed though.

Great example of Leftist wanting citations though.

There are so many examples of Leftists taking over academia from professors and students and the worthlessness of Gender Studies degrees....but, "muh citations" "where's your study?" Go **** yourselves.

Thanks for the help illustrating my point.

Oh no need for examples ive been hearing that since ive been alive. Even before my time you could sit down and have a whine session with Nixon and fit right in.

How many leftists do we have in political positions?

Thanks to Obama, about 1,000 less since he was elected.

I feel like leftists were taking over the government.

As I mentioned above ITT, as a vendor I worked in factories owned by dozens of F500 companies. Several were major tech companies: HP, Compaq (before HP), IBM, AMD, TI, etc/etc. At every single one, if I as a vendor had used the company intranet to spread that manifesto, I'd have been banned & barred from the site. If back then an employee had written that manifesto on the clock y/o spread it on the company intraweb, they would have been fired on the spot.

Let me elaborate here a little.

The issue isn't the content of the fool's manifesto... although that is surely odious enough it's own right. The issue is shiz like this manifesto are simply unprofessional. As such, they have absolutely -zero- place in the workplace.

Some jobs have different demands than software engineering. In particular, some jobs are statistically more dangerous. I oftentimes had the pleasure to be sent into a factory in the aftermath of industrial maimings and death. In these kinda jobs, we have a little thing we call "Safety Culture".

Nobody would want to work with this fool on the factory floor, because the #1 overriding principle of Safety Culture is teamwork. Everyone on the floor needs everyone else on the floor to have their back... boss, worker, male, female. This fool fails that test.

Ok, so;

Here's the amazing thing about Jiffly's 'insult' that Clovis is a dog:


Even if Clovis wasn't posting actual English sentences, merely posting at all would be amazing for an actual canine. If the posts read "klasjdfnvdsiah;sdlfadjfafjd" and the like, he still had to click multiple buttons to actually reply and submit the post! So, already we're dealing with a level of intelligence and motor dexterity never seen before from a dog.

However, Clovis is posting actual English sentences! I've seen some smart dogs in my day but that would be off the charts by dozens of orders of magnitude.

Let's fully set the scene.

Jiggly has, quite literally, the most intelligent canine ever witnessed, trying to converse with him, and what does he do?

He derides and mocks the creature, and refuses to engage in favor of the oh so much more important task of POSTING RIGHTWING SJW UTUUBZ!

Incredible.


Now, does Jibby actually think Clovis is an actual canine? Probably no.

Does anybody else think Jicky thinks Clovis is an actual canine? Also, probably no.

But, in one of the more bizarre examples I've ever seen, this illustrates just how little he thinks (which, to be fair, could still be ALL his thinking) anything through before he posts, even something that could and should be an easy 'joke' or 'insult'. Of all the ways to express his idea, he picked the one that required him to look the most ridiculous. The working component and main moving part of his 'insult' is that he himself is so intellectually incurious and bankrupt that when faced with an actual canine that can operate a computer and type coherent English, he is completely flummoxed. Intellectual curiosity just doesn't look like anything to him.

2 other thoughts:

1. I wonder if all those rural UFO sightings actually happened, and an alien touched down to make first contact but, upon being accused of talking like a 'lefty f*g' and hearing the human scream 'MAGA' over and over, it simply said F IT and went off to find another planet with potentially intelligent life.

2. I wonder if Jibbly has ever even tried to analyze anything as thoroughly as I have half-assedly here with his lame and failed 'joke'. I've officially given up on convincing people that, hey, thinking can sometimes be fun.

Pretty sure they are the reason we have not been invited into the galactic federation of planets.

I don't know. I thought it was pretty funny myself.

And Clovis is a dick.

Naw.

Sabo has accessed a pix of The Missile off of the interwebs, and then posted it into my dog blog right right here on 2+2. He did this by being in the right place ~ wandering around on my keyboard, at the right time ~ when I had a post half written in one windoz, and imgur.com with my dog pix open in another windoz. He didn't get the [img] tags correct, however.

The Missile, who was even smarter, liked to use the mouse. She also liked to get down and seemed be reading some serious hacking books when we were away at work. After a few unexplained interwebs signons when only she should have had access to the computers... we stopped leaving them on for her, just in case.

I stand corrected.

it doesn't swing both ways, when you present an argument in the form of a well cited manuscript (which is the original document) you don't need to go ahead and find more things to prove him

the onus is on others to debunk a well cited manuscript, there have been no one who he cited that came forward and said he was wrong.

I feel like I'm in some bizarro world. Why don't you read his original manuscript and find the problems with it and then we can talk. A well cited well researched document does not need more reinforcement. and yes it isn't very interesting because everything James wrote about is bland and uncontroversial in the scientific world, its only on the hysterical left that its controversial.

he wrote a well cited document and in that quote the guy essentially said James was wrong in every way while saying he himself was unqualified and providing no actual arguments

its as absurd as me insulting hawking's stance on black hole radiation after a cursory read of a brief history of time.

you don't even have an undergrad degree do you?

Not one of James's opponents have read his memo.

None of them are going to watch his first interview on the subject either.

Ah well, it's here anyway.

Can you specifically pull part of the text from the memo that you find odious? I'd ask you to use context in your citation, but if you're going to cherry-pick, I can't stop you.

I'm not interested in discussing the merits of that slime. None of that crap is new, or interesting, or makes a lick-o-sense.

My point is that shiz like this has -zero- place in the workplace. Cliffs:

Workplace == serious business, peeps earning their livings.
Interwebs Forum == silly funny fantasylands, where OSJers-vs-SJWers might belong.

Hahaha! I don't want to understand things, because I already don't understand things, so why would I want to start understanding things?

Good response. I think we're done here.
