Originally posted by HTS It kind of works. I'm not saying it's a perfectly flawless concept, but there is enough validity to it. Society tolerates crazy radical leftist antics like reducing the male population to 10% or killing the bourgeoisie about as much as it tolerates right wingers suggesting folks should be able to own guns and deport brown people who are in the country illegally.
Yes, this backfires and pushes moderates away. That's the Overton window shifting back right again. Until radical right wingers start talking enough batshit crazy nonsense because it's become "acceptable" that it again alienates the moderates and they go back to the left. Et cetera, ad infinitum.
The only time I've seen someone talk about the overton window is in defending crazy radicals on their side of the line, if you're saying this radicalism operates by pushing moderates away from the side the radicals occupy then it seems like we should be condemning said radicals because they injure actual productive agendas. -

Yeah, I'm not defending radicals on "my side" or anything. I'm a radical centrist. Moderates and radicals on every side get the bullet. -
2018-07-28 at 6:51 AM UTCI thought I was an anarchist for a while. I see it as people like me "eat the state" anarchist and "smash the state" anarchists. Its about making communities strong enough to make the government redundant. All my interactions with other anarchists kind of sucked though, they seemed retarded to me and regressive left wing types. Some of the people I met from the denver black cross seemed cool but most anarchists really just suck hard and they are ineffective idealists.

2018-07-28 at 8:41 AM UTCI've never really heard anyone say MOON PERSONs ruined anything, most criticisms about MOON PERSONs (and all generations which are disenfranchised) focus on them not performing super-heroic acts of economic generation and scientific innovation.
For instance "Le Generation Perdue" (French for the lost generation) - the generation who had come of age during WW1, and been fed into the war machine on the Western Front.In A Moveable Feast (1964)… Hemingway writes that Stein heard the phrase from a garage owner who serviced Stein's car. When a young mechanic failed to repair the car quickly enough, the garage owner shouted at the boy, "You are all a "génération perdue."
Stein, in telling Hemingway the story, added, "That is what you are. That's what you all are … all of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation."
And that's MOON PERSONs for you. They came of age in an era when society was quite open about not wanting them, openly bragging about replacing them with robots and immigrants and adding debt like crazy.
And when they don't invent the next facebook in their spare time they're called lazy, worthless, and unmotivated. -

Everybody forgets there was a generation in between. My lovely generation Xers. Guess being an X is still an unknown😂.
Millenials didn’t ruin anything, their parents did it to them. Don’t know why, but some parents from my generation have coddled the fuck out of their kids. Didn’t teach them the meaning of a buck. I raised my son to start working at 15, and he works his ass off. I met a quintessential millenial the other day. She openly admitted she doesn’t want to grow up, she wants to stay home and be supported by her parents, and she’s 22. Man I wanted out of the house the second I had the chance.

2018-07-28 at 12:25 PM UTCGenerational studies has proven that peoples psyches, beliefs and way of thinking is heavily influenced by your environment and society you grow up in. So considering that I guess you can't put 100% of the blame on the individual. As someone said we are a product of our environment.
I read just the other day that the newest generation, those born since 96 are the only generation alive that didn't witness 9/11 and to them it was just an historic event which will influence them in a different way to millenials.

2018-07-28 at 12:33 PM UTCWeird thing Narc,
I’ll never forget 9/11, and I don’t think my son will either. He was at that age when he kept getting out of his bed, going downstairs and getting into everything. I told him to come in my room and get me when he got up. Well, on 9/11, my son woke me up saying, “mom a plane hit a building!”, he said it with panic in his voice. I told him honey it’s just a movie. He said, “No, no, a plane hit a building!”. I got up, went downstairs where the TV was, and my gut just sank. My boy was right to sound panicked. How he picked up on that at 4, I do not know.😞 -

Of course there are exceptions. My Dad is a boomer. I’m technically a MOON PERSON. He started me working at around age 13 for his business. I too wanted out of the house the moment I hit 18.
But I’m still blaming boomers just to piss em off :P -

not true anymore since 1990 when china start producing cheap TVs and ship them to the west.
everything since then came from a screen. all. everything.
