Oh. Those. Yeah. I saw that shit. Too much to wade through. I am easily distracted.
The last big internet strange thing I got into many years ago was the story of Ted the Caver.
Awesome story. It may still be around. Epic
still believes in soulmates FFS
In the mostc recent vids he admits to not dating, not leaving home to create for months, being disappointed with women the more sex he had (in past, common occurrence) to the point of rejecting easy sex with attractive woman, slept with 17 women that later admitted to have bf or husband... Got to say that from limited interviews I have listened to, he doesn't show sentiment (and what you quote it might have been slip of a tongue).
The only thing that sounded strange: he puts himself low on a pecking order list for RL at the age of (don't quote me) early 40s.
@MentORPHEUS It's not at all preposterous. You're just don't have current knowledge about the environment in the corporate sector. Your first example, defense, is run by people like Jim Comey (former Lockheed general counsel) and Lloyd Austin (Raytheon board). They and their ilk are the ones wearing the $5000 suits and raking in the dollars. Comey and Austin are right wing? No one of any import in the defense industry is right wing unless your idea of right wing is someone like Bill Kristol or Max Boot.
Hospitality-ever heard of the Pritzkers? Banking and finance-are you serious? Jamie Dimon and Brian Moynihan are right wing?
Look at the numbers. Currently, the professional class and the wealthy support the left. Working and middle class people support the right. There are exceptions, of course, but that's what current data show about income and voting patterns.
Read More@Stigma Corporate America by and large isn't pro-capitalist. It prefers a heavily regulated economy in which it controls the regulators. In any event, Corporate America and execs aren't exactly shy about their support of leftist causes. Offhand, I can't think of any insane leftist cause that Corporate America hasn't enthusiastically supported and funded, and the environment in most big companies (and law firms, consulting firms, etc.) is insufferably woke and far left.
Capitalism may be good for consumers, but big companies perceive that it isn't so good for them. That pesky competition eats into profits.
@SeasonedRP Jeez, man... just how far will you try to stretch a "Left bad, and at the root of all problems " idea/narrative, to try to get it to fit reality???
This isn't even difficult to work through. ALL the higher echelons of all the corporations across all the economic sectors, include hardly anyone right wing???
Defense, energy, manufacturing, mining, agriculture, hospitality, private equity, banking, finance, construction et al... hardly anyone wearing $5000 suits in the boardrooms of all the corporations us right wing???
Admit that sounds preposterous.
@SeasonedRP Is that right? The left being so anti-corporate/anti-capitalist speaks against that notion.
…or maybe I’m still thinking we’re in the before times.

I wonder would you be able to switch sides for a week and exchange arguments acting like you are left-Type, right-Ment.
But in a way that you wouldn't make any excuses for your originally supported side.
