It's also hilarious how that Gawker hack starts off with "I didn't try to get him fired". And then goes on to say with great detail how it's unacceptable that a company can have people like this working for them.

of all the dumb ass wild eyed crazy assertions made on this board...this one takes the cake!

never, ever, ever ever ever EVER will the US close down foreign trade.

we may have some slight restrictions here and there but i dont know if you know anything about our history? since pre-revolutionary times, our whole thing has been about opening up trade routes. it was one of the big beefs we had with england was that we couldnt trade with anyone else.

the entire economic universe would have to disintegrate, NATO, UN, WTO, IMF, WB, all of them would have to vanish before we systematically shut down foreign trade.

keep dreamin'

How does it feel to be wrong?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot%E2%8...Tariff_Act

Quote:The Tariff Act of 1930 (codified at 19 U.S.C. ch. 4), otherwise known as the Smoot–Hawley Tariff or Hawley–Smoot Tariff,[1] was an act sponsored by Senator Reed Smoot and Representative Willis C. Hawley and signed into law on June 17, 1930, that raised U.S. tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods to record levels.[2]
The dutiable tariff level (this does not include duty-free imports - see "Tariff Levels" below) under the act was the highest in the U.S. in 100 years, exceeded by a small margin by the Tariff of 1828.[3] Some view the Act, and the ensuing retaliatory tariffs by U.S. trading partners, as responsible for reducing American exports and imports by more than half. According to Ben Bernanke, "Economists still agree that Smoot-Hawley and the ensuing tariff wars were highly counterproductive and contributed to the depth and length of the global Depression."[4]

thank you for bringing up the exception that proves the rule.

smoot hawley is widely regarded as being one of the primary causes of the great depression.

it was a flash in the pan that delivered the worst possible results.

every politician and economist in the US knows this and is shaped by it.

there will be no systematic closure of free trade in the US.

you can take that to the bank.

The reason, I think, it is so hard to reason with current "socially progressive" shout boxes, is that the people spewing the (fashionable) ideas think they're at the forefront of something better. Like a teenager rebelling against her dad, the feminists and social progressives think they are onto something better (and the parent just doesn't understand). The red pill rebuttals, no matter how rational they may be, are quickly categorized & marginalized as "old," "passe," and "cave-mannish."

Even science, in their minds, is something that has a political slant, therefore evidence of biological differences between men and women is cast aside.

There is just no reasoning with them.

There is one female writer, Camille Paglia, who sharply criticizes this sort of thinking, which has made her the mortal enemy of Gloria Steinem, Jezebel, et. al.

Of course, we're not just looking for things we can't say. We're looking for things we can't say that are true, or at least have enough chance of being true that the question should remain open.

^ Camile Paglia is cool. I think I'd enjoy talking to her about various issues.

Bosch, one of the best pieces of analysis, about anything, that I have ever read. Incredible mate. That said, which relatively wealthy countries are immune from becoming the post-industrial insane asylums you so eloquently destroyed? I'm not being rhetorical, I'm genuinely wondering.

Pax Dickinson has come out of hiding with a bang, intent on exposing the corruption within the American media:




Having been an active lurker for a while, I know that many within the manosphere (myself included) got angry over how he folded after the fiasco a year back. In hindsight his reaction was understandable all things considered, and as such I do believe this new venture of his deserves all the support it can get. Not to mention this ties in quite well with the gamergate business, so it really seems like the time is ripe for this sort of counter movement to start taking place. Pax also blogs at http://paxdickinson.wordpress.com/ where the first post is him coming clean about this whole ordeal.

I made a small contribution to his campaign and hope it takes off.

Didn't want to make a new thread just for this, but I recently did an interview with Pax Dickinson, discussing his firing from BI, his new project ExposeCorruption.org, his thoughts on SJW corruption in the media and how we can fight back. Click here to listen.

Matt's bump of this thread also reminded me to check the Google search results for Nitasha Tiku... Good to see Roosh's epic article on her racism is comfortably located on the front page

Pax Dickinson has come out as the man behind The Duck.

The Duck (@jokeocracy) was a popular right wing satire account on Twitter that poked fun at various pundits and politicians (and Roosh). The account was eventually banned due to a Twitter meltdown where he imagined all the ways Emperor Trump would execute prominent journalists. He announced that he and Chuck Johnson would be working on a project called Wesearchr. I know a lot of us have been looking for alternatives to Twitter where free speech is the law of the land, and this may be what we need.

This could be huge.

Not only is Pax rolling into this project with tons of internet publicity, but he's also a talented coder with lots of contacts with other talented coders. My instincts tell me a huge success is right around the corner.

Johnson and Dickinson together at last.

it's a very good idea, and long long long overdue, but he is already fucking up.

what the fuck is with the overuse of big words and the suit and tie? he should be in comfortable and stylish track warmup suit and say, "help me start a website that will be dedicated to attacking the corruption and hypocrisy of the mainstream media. this is a labor of love and truth. and I am fucking tired of their bullshit."

..... and then launch into his first story of corruption, like how the media is totally shafting Bernie and framing their stories to suppory hillary. you know, something that will provoke an instant reaction of approval.

but with that fucked up hair, cheap suit, and 8th grade presentation of his idea, I couldn't support that.
