I don't care about your antifa stories. If you pick up a torch and march with nazis, you're guilty by association. Are you an antisemite?
I have no time for the bleeding heart assholes who think they know everything.... even though they have never been on the street.
When Jews are being blamed for some nobody group that's been in the news once, months ago, because they ("Jews") don't speak out against the group's claims about who's a nazi?
Yeah. I dunno about him but that is.
Yo, G!
How does one end up on the streets with a military retirement? If it was before that, then you lived on the tough streets of a black and white movie, don't make me laugh.
How to avoid getting bitten by the SJW culture? Be friendly and respectful to everyone?
Let us not forget that the left has been after his ass since he came out against the NFL players kneeling. He says he was trapped, or something. I’d like to hear the full story.
Someone forced him to say it? Tricked him?
In thinking about Papa John Schnatter and James Damore, I'm thinking about how each of their respective difficulties could have been avoided
1) NEVER explain your actions
2) APPLY the Miranda Warning to all aspects of life (anything you say can and will be used against you)
3) Don't interact with people who are easily offended
4) Be mindful that false accusations are socially acceptable, especially from preferred members of protected classes. Avoid being alone with ANYBODY in the workplace.
5) If you do advance an opinion, make sure that you do it in a way that has the law on your side. For example, James Damore shouldn't have had a "friendly discussion" about "woman's tech", female only training sessions. Rather than saying a word, just file the Federal gender discrimination complaint with no discussion.
6) Finesse your way out of projects for or with high risk people. Again, DON'T explain your actions.
My grandma was never part of the klan or similar group but she said tat word all the time... to the point it would embarrass me when I was a child.How about
If you would be ashamed to do or say something in front of your grandmother or priest don't do it in public.
Exception is if your grandmother or priest are part of a group similar to the KKK
Is it "dispespectful" to eat at Chik-Fil-A?
Another way to reduce the odds of dealing with SJW bullcrap is to live and work in more conservative states. I would NEVER accept a job or gig in the Pacific time zone of the US. One interesting thing I discovered in New England. There is still an "old" culture in New England. If you discuss your upbringing and history, you'll many times get cut some slack. This was a pleasant surprise. That's where I learned the idea if you are seen and not heard, you'll be alright most of the time, even if someone digs and finds out something politically incorrect about you.
also: Never Apologize
Your response intrigues me. Tell me more about this. What are the payoffs of "never apologize"?
A lot of this just boils down to being properly socialized. If you don't understand why people might avoid you if you make racial slurs I think that shows a lack of self reflection. It's not about having a list a words you can't say as much as it is about not being a jerk.
But it's not as simple as "don't be a jerk", though. Nowadays people come into contact with people from such a whole range of different backgrounds and it's so easy to offend them when one does not mean to.
I really think people should toughen up. Women, minorities, certain types of protected groups...etc. When someone says something that offends you, chances are he has no clue.
A coworker dresses rather nice one day, do you dare compliment them on their dress?
If the compliment isn't taken in the spirit in which it was given, it could only lead to complications and possible harassment accusations, HR and legal get involved, and who knows what outcomes that could lead to.
