"21st century education is currently teaching economics through environmental and social lenses in multi-disciplinary classes such as engineering, environmental science, as well as social studies.  "

Oh shit this random sentence in quote really convinced everyone I'm sure!

And I guess it's bad to learn economics through engineering and social science because... Sciences are bad I guess?
And I have no idea what environmental science is. I've never seen this class anywhere. Didn't you want to also add something like "gender studies" as you seem to chose things completely randomly?

You said "through environmental and social lenses" you didn't say to learn through. Sure integration is great, but substituting it for the classic educational model is just more deconstructivist Postmodernist Critical Theorist garbage specifically designed to erode the institutional foundations of... well everything.

This is why no one seems to be educated in school any more. They don't teach skills we need, they teach the world through the lens of social "sciences", and we have been over how scientific social sciences are. On a scale of 1-10 of maximum scientific method applied, social sciences rank in at about a 0.2.

Of course if your goal is endless deconstructivist subjectivity now that ambiguity is desirable now isn't it? I don't need to add "gender studies" because academia is one giant hybrid with Critical Theory already, which is what gender studies programs are based upon. AKA Marxism with a vinyl wrap of Bill Nye looking at some beakers over it so it looks extra sciencey.

When you state facts, you shouldn't try to use persuasaion techniques.  Facts are facts.  No one should have to convince you to believe them.  Thats how facts get mixed up with opinions.  Just because you guys don't know about something, doesn't mean it was made up randomly.  I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything and was just stating the way things are being taught in modernized education systems.  

You really can't figure out what environmental science is?  Sure, the same topics can be put into courses with various names.  In the IB, the "ES" program is called Environmental systems and society
Quote
ESS is firmly grounded in both a scientific exploration of environmental systems in their structure and function, and in the exploration of
cultural, economic, ethical, political and social interactions of societies
with the environment. As a result of studying this course, students
will become equipped with the ability to recognize and evaluate
the impact of our complex system of societies on the natural world.

Which, when you look into it, is basically the same thing I was referencing from the American "Next generation science standards" which are part of common core.  

Also, even though it was off-topic, I just want to post the UCLA gender studies description so that anyone who reads tecshares premodernist mind-mush can recognize its a legitimate field of study.
Quote
Gender Studies is an interdisciplinary field that focuses on the complex interaction of gender with other identity markers such as race, ethnicity, sexuality, nation, and religion. Gender— femininity and masculinity—is such a basic form of social organization that its operation often passes unnoticed.  Feminist scholarship demonstrates that traditional categories used for social analysis and their accompanying interpretive approaches often reinforce gender hierarchies and inequalities.

Interdisciplinary study emerged in response to the partial answers to social problems provided by the disciplines, and our faculty employ a wide range of qualitative research methods for understanding gender roles across historical periods and in different cultural contexts. Our core courses address the concepts of gender and the body, gender and power, and gender and knowledge through a range of topics such as freedom and liberty, social movements, masculinities, work and leisure, politics of social justice, intersectionality, colonial and sexual violence, and visual culture and citizenship.


I was directly referring to the social sciences part, so naturally you assume the environmental sciences part so you at least have a leg to stand on. Also what the fuck are you talking about persuasion techniques?

Gender Studies is not science. Social sciences are BARELY science as a whole. My point stands. Interesting graphics choice... strait out of The Frankfurt School of Marxist bullshit made to look scientific.

Move to Cuba

Exactly what I said.
Cuba is communist not socialist.
Know the difference.

Replace all your "socialism" by "communism" and I would fairly agree with you.

"Socialism: a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work done"

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/socialism


Socialism is the introductory stages of Communism, both based in Marxist theory. They are indistinguishable except in scale and progression. Socialism is designed to be a delivery mechanism for Communism. Maybe before advocating for an ideology you should actually know something about it.

No one has defined what "gaming the trust system" is, and based on the metrics used for removing the first merits, I would say this example fits firmly within the same description.

It doesn't, not even close. ScumBuster doesn't have a single DT vote and most of those merits had been sent before the new DT1 system was established. Your bitching about someone meriting a post that you don't like is quite ridiculous. It's a good post highlighting your utter lack of self awareness.

If you are having problems separating your emotions and your personal opinions from my arguments, then I am not the one with a problem, you are.

Case in point.

You are mistaking my lack of a need to feel liked with a lack of self awareness. Case in point huh? If only all arguments could be solved with projecting eh?

I love all these ancestry sites marketing to people using the emotional pull of being able to look at family history. The reality is they are hoovering up DNA at a breakneck pace not only for surveillance purposes, but so they can patent the next wave of genetically specialized medicine using your DNA. Guess what. They are the only one selling it, and you will have to pay whatever they demand if you want it. I could get into the more fringe aspects of how this information can be used for horribly disturbing purposes, but no one would believe me anyway...

IMO what will happen is eventually every biometric database will be hacked and put up for sale, and it will become virtually worthless as an authentication method. That's when they will start pushing DNA authentication, portable sequencers are already a thing. Either that or they will have to start mandating the collection of rectal prints for identification, I am not sure which.

Jussie Smollett, the man who had said that two racist Donald Trump supporters had attacked him, and attempted to lynch him while stating 'this is maga country. This story was found out to be false.

Chicago PD is now looking at prosecuting the actor for falsifying police reports and lying to police.

Personally, I'm surprised to see the Chicago PD go after someone for this, though I am happy to see it.

What does everyone else think about this crazy drama filled story?

He also violated federal law by using the USPS to send himself a death threat. Whoops. That might be one that hurts him the most.

What do I think? I think he should be punished in the same way that a woman who falsely cries rape should be punished.  People have whipped themselves into a frenzy - that Trump is ok with rape and so much else. (No. Trump said rich men are surrounded by groupies who LET you put your fingers in their pussy in order to be next to you. Is that crass? Yeah. But he say it in a locker room conversation.)

Not just a death threat, but it had white powder in it... so that puts him in the terrorism arena. Yikes. On the up side he got what he wanted, now he is world famous Smiley
5408  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump Declares National Emergency Over Border Wall on: February 20, 2019, 10:12:00 PM
I'm not familiar with the border part of the US but since I've seen border checkpoints and fences in movies and such, I'm assuming that there is some preexisting "wall". How much of the border with Mexico have at least a fence?

I wonder if the expense of building a wall would outweigh the expense of having process all those migrants. I've seen news about those coming from Central American countries like Guatemala. These "migrant caravans" broke through Mexico's border fence, were offered jobs and such but still proceeded towards the US.

Most of the border is totally unprotected by barriers. For the most part they rely on natural features such as mountains and rivers. If you are taking into account all the public resources they use once they get here there is no doubt a wall would pay for itself very fast.

The links work fine. I am sorry you live in a totalitarian nation that prevents you from being able to view these sources.
No it doesn't...
The link to this article:
http://aun-tv.com/2014/11/harvard-study-illegal-alien-voter-fraud-decides-many-elections-6-4-of-illegals-voted-in-2008/

works but sadly the only source of the article, the famous harvard study, doesn't work:
https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/cces/home

Quote
Before you speak next time maybe inform yourself. Yes in many states no ID is required to vote.

Then your problem isn't the fraud but the voting system which is so stupid even a 5 years old would understand it's not a good one.

I mean you litteraly ask for people to just come in, sign a piece of paper then vote and you complain about frauds?? xD

The good thing though is that frauds are probably both ways.


Well, that was hard... http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Cooperative+Congressional+Election+Study

You said all of my sources were broken. None were broken, you are just crying you had to do 1 extra step to look at the source, the name and contents of which were provided.

You don't need to tell me this system is a problem. Direct your criticism to the Democrat party. The Republican party has been trying to get voter ID laws passed for some time, but every time they try Dems scream bloody murder about racism, because it some how stops minority peoples from voting in ways they can't exactly explain. Regardless the fact is fraud is rampant.

Also your attempt at equivalence is false, because illegal immigrants lean heavily to the left. Furthermore the pattern of past proven recorded fraud also lies heavily in the realm of the Democrat party. I am from Chicagoland, a place of at least 4 generations of unbroken organized crime control under the Democrat party & the home of Obama. I don't think there are many lessons in this realm you have to teach me.

You're amazing TECSHARE. You're truly amazing.
You're the perfect example of why censorship is important xD
Anyway you probably misunderstood the sources but I can't blaim you as they're all in French and I can't expect you to read a random foreign language.


And you are the perfect example of why censorship exists. You think you are more informed than you are, and when some one contradicts your only recourse is to keep them from speaking. It is a lot easier to feel like you are right with no one left to question you isn't it?

Exactly why do I not personally deserve as much redress as anyone else here?

You do. What are you talking about "redress"? No unfair action has been committed against you. Everything you think is wrong is all in your head. You can continue to bitch and moan every day but its getting quite boring, and you aren't doing your cause any favors by repeating yourself ad nauseum.

Why is it meriting socks to argue with your opponents and trying to get them banned anonymously ok for some people, but other people don't get to leave merits because they were "political".

Because the merits theymos deleted were specifically toward the end goal of gaming the trust system. He explained it quite thoroughly. Some people don't like you because they think you're a pompous ass, I happen to be one of them. It has nothing to do with politics.

Well good thing I have you here to tell me everything is a-ok. I am very sorry my goals of entertaining you have fallen so short. I will ask those ninjas I sent to your home to force you to read my comments to leave. Maybe they can juggle for you or something before they go.

No one has defined what "gaming the trust system" is, and based on the metrics used for removing the first merits, I would say this example fits firmly within the same description. I am aware some people don't like me. Thank you. The fact is this has very little meaning to me. If you are having problems separating your emotions and your personal opinions from my arguments, then I am not the one with a problem, you are.
5413  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Green New Deal/Yellow Vest Split on: February 20, 2019, 11:40:23 AM
Yeah everyone knows you can trust cops not to lie right? The burden of proof is on you. I told you why your numbers which are based on an appeal to authority, a logical fallacy, are not reliable. Your "proof" is not proof of anything. That does not mean it can't be proven, you just have no idea how to.

As anything can be biased, anyone can lie, and anything can be falsified, no proof can ever be acceptable under such statement.

Here are more sources but I guess you can always just say that they are not acceptable as you refuse sources countradicting you without any reason:

https://www.lci.fr/social/gilets-jaunes-l-evolution-de-la-mobilisation-2110032.html

http://www.lefigaro.fr/actualite-france/2018/12/06/01016-20181206ARTFIG00247-gilets-jaunes-le-conflit-en-chiffres.php

https://fr.statista.com/infographie/16622/mobilisation-gilets-jaune-nombre-de-manifestants/

https://www.francetvinfo.fr/economie/transports/gilets-jaunes/desintox-gilets-jaunes-un-nombre-de-manifestants-toujours-flou_3046541.html

Your problem is you keep looking for authority figures to determine what the facts are for you instead of making a determination based on logic for yourself.

Your first source again just makes an unsourced and unexplained claim. Your second source seems to be clearly insinuating official numbers are contrary to the reality on the ground, so I would say that source even agrees with me.

Your third source again links government provided numbers, and why would the government want to understate these numbers right?

In that source is also linked this: http://www.lefigaro.fr/politique/2019/01/12/01002-20190112ARTFIG00126-de-l-acte-i-a-l-acte-ix-la-mobilisation-des-gilets-jaunes-en-chiffres.php

Oh look at that they very clearly echo my sentiment that the official government numbers really should not be trusted because they have direct incentive to understate them.

Finally your last source actually totally agrees with my sentiment. So in summary, thanks for proving yourself wrong with your own sources. You didn't even read them did you? Anything else please take it to the appropriate thread.
5414  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Green New Deal/Yellow Vest Split on: February 20, 2019, 10:33:55 AM
Not my problem. You are the one claiming it is shrinking. The burden of proof is yours.

And here we go on the classical duo of the conspiracist:
-burden of proof is on you
-I don't accept your proof because it could be wrong

So you can never prove anything ever.

I'll jsut keep this post to give it back to you next time you try to claim anything.

Yeah everyone knows you can trust cops not to lie right? The burden of proof is on you. I told you why your numbers which are based on an appeal to authority, a logical fallacy, are not reliable.

I just love how all the sources links of your article are, by pure coincidence I'm sure, broken.

So you got an article talking about dead people voting (which is a completely different subject) and another one saying 5% of voters are illegals (OMFG how can anyone believe this?? xD) with TOOOOOOONS of precise numbers but sadly the only link towards the amazing study behind this is broken and the name of the study doesn't give anything of Google.

PURE COINCIDENCE of course.

By the way can you please explain me how a non citizen can even vote? I don't even see how that's physically possible. Anyone can enter a vote office and drop a couple of votes without having to present any kind of ID where you live? xD

If yes that's the dumbest voting system I've ever seen and even newly democratic African don't do this. Just change your voting system into something less moronic.

The links work fine. I am sorry you live in a totalitarian nation that prevents you from being able to view these sources.

Before you speak next time maybe inform yourself. Yes in many states no ID is required to vote. Democrats fight voter ID laws tooth and nail claiming they are racist and will some how reduce the minority vote in spite of the fact every other nation on Earth requires ID to vote. In reality it will reduce the illegal vote, which they need desperately. This assertion is false of course.

Well shit, they say they are pro yellow vest, so it must be true right? Just like they say numbers those must also be true? What proof do THEY have? How about this number. 769,932. Prove me wrong. Oh right making unsubstantiated claims is easy!

Why would the police have direct incentive to convince people the protests are shrinking so everyone goes home? CONSPIRACY THEORY! You are a tool, you just don't have the capacity to realize it.


SO if a union specifically calling for yellow vests support isn't a good source for you, what would be?

Is there a word here too hard for you?

You really can't admit you're wrong on anything can you?
I provided a clear claim. A clear source supporting such claim. Best possible source as it's both police (so ground accuracy as they are HERE) and pro yellow vests (yeah believe it or not some policemen aren't pure assholes obeying government and kneeling down, some actually want to protect citizens).

You have nothing against that, not a single number.
But you just continue claiming I'm saying shit.

Well case closed. Kiss.
