i envision it like the truly evil people being tortured for eternity and the people who weren't godly but weren't evil are the ones who carry the pain and do the torturing, in a way torturing themselves also due to never achieving fulfillment/satisfaction from it.

**** is just as probable as whatever other stupid idea they taught you

When old people try edgelording without proper safety precautions:

Maryland deplorable tries to create "white women yoga" group because she's mad at POC

Quote:

“To allow space for White women to gather in the name of yoga, surrounded by the supportive community of White people, White yoga instructors, and all around safe White spaces,” she wrote on Meetup, a website designed to help people connect through shared interests.

Angry responses poured in. People called Brown ignorant and said she was using the site to promote white supremacy. “Shame on you for being so racist and hateful,” read one message. “It’s people like you who are destroying our country.”

But the 63-year-old Maryland woman said organizing a yoga group was never what she intended. Frustrated at the existence of Meetup groups specifically for black people, and offended by advocacy groups such as Black Lives Matter, she wanted to make a provocative statement about the “tribalism and separatism” she believes are taking over the country.

“I see the same type of thing happening on college campuses, where we see ‘safe spaces’ and college dorm floors that are all black,” Brown said of her feigned attempt to start a whites-only group. “Where does this stop?”

Quote:

Brown described her proposal — which borrowed wording from the Yoga is 4 Black Girls Meetup group — as a way to expose groups she believes are sowing division in the country.

Chief among them, she says, is Black Lives Matter ... which Brown describes as “an aggressive movement that started up a lot of anger among people who felt like they were being attacked.”

She's got a point though, safe spaces are stupid as hell and should be abolished.

Doesn't really blow my mind at all. Her experience is that the races live in harmony and racism is dead, therefore that is a universal truth. That's how conservatives work.

Yeah, POC, women, LGBTIQ people etc clearly don't need safe spaces in this day and age.

Abolish them huh?

So you want stormtroopers march into the Oberlin college safe space and crack skulls and you think that without strict border enforcement most of the people crossing the border would be gang members?

What other thoughts do you have?

Which raises the question: Why do billionaires such as Howard Schultz retain such faith in the neoliberal formula despite the evidence that no voters want to drink it? Why are free markets and social justice the philosophy of choice in Seattle and Palo Alto if this combination is so disliked by everyone else?

The answer can be found in the boardrooms where Howard Schultz made his living. Our era has witnessed an unprecedented groundswell of corporate progressive activism, from boycotts of the NRA to a push to legalize same-sex marriage to the circulation of open letters in support of trans rights and undocumented labor. Corporate leaders are largely white, well-educated, urban, and wealthy, and wokeness, especially to the younger half of that demographic, is a form of social currency. As Ross Douthat has pointed out, such activism is also an adaptive strategy to facilitate continued corporate enrichment: By taking the progressive side in the culture wars, corporations can earn goodwill from the “resistance” and deflect its regulatory impulses.

A simpler answer: he's just a guy with liberal instincts who is also rich and following his economic self-interest. I notice no elaborate theory was required to explain the existence of the populists, presumably because National Review wouldn't want to print the obvious: that they are reactionaries who are also voting their economic self-interest. Since the explanation can't be ACTUAL CURRENCY, you know, material self-interest, we have to suffer through this idiot explanation about "social currency".

In case you have never been to West Virginia, the article in no way oversells the situation. It’s chock full of enormously racist, enormously stupid backwater hick ****heads.
