University graduate berates Lyft driver for Hula doll

[[DHT]Osiris]

We can only do what we can do, which is to denounce it. And it needs to be denounced in a non-partisan way in order to be credible, in spite of the fact that each side thinks the extremism problem is worse on the other side than on theirs. The extremists are "louder" precisely because those who aren't extremists don't seem as passionate possibly because rational politics involves using one's head more than one's emotions. Denouncing It probably won't work, but that is not a reason to be complacent about it. It's time that people who are not insane got involved in our national dialogue to a much greater degree.

What might actually work is to have extremists get their way for awhile until there's a catastrophe, which could be existential or just economic. That's what usually curbs extremism. Extremism led to WWII, for example, but after 80 million died in that war, Europe started getting a clue. It's returning now and I don't think we should just sit back and wait for the catastrophe even though that is probably going to be the outcome.

I'd hate for bloodshed on that level to be the only acceptable conclusion to our current course, it's just hard to not see it as a train barreling down the tracks right now.

I don't honestly think that a non-partisan approach will ever happen, our two 'teams' are too opposed to each other to look inward, in fact most people probably don't even acknowledge extremism in whatever direction they lean. Any political personality who points out extremism on their own side will probably be wholesale rejected by their constituents as 'not partisan enough', or whatever. You'd have to have every votable candidate do the same thing, at the same time, so there was nobody left to vote for, and drag the populace kicking and screaming into a more rational government.

I don't know if the outcome is bloodshed or serious economic decline. It could be either or some combination of the two. I see the Trump presidency as proof of concept for right wing extremism. If Trump does poorly enough, it may lose credibility, in terms of being able to attract voters from moderate right to moderate left.

I'm not advocating being totally non-partisan. I think when extremism is denounced by non-extremists, it needs to be denounced on both sides. I'm on the left and I just denounced what we saw in the video. It really isn't that hard. I think a democratic pol could denounce it as well.

this is straight from her own mouth, the middle section of it.

I have no words for the stupidity of that woman. I thought it was great how he finally dumped her on the side of the road. He was a lot more patient and polite than I would have ever been.

Now I want to go buy a Hula Doll for my dashboard.

Apparently she escalated beyond giving him a 1-star to trying to get him fired and threatening to publicly shame him for his "racism."

People go into debt and emerge with these ideologies.

Not news? But definitely relevant politics as it speaks to the hateful, racist, and divisive ideology being encouraged (and thus endorsed) across college campuses in America. It is radicalization... but to what end? Not physical violence per say, but trying to take away and deny a person's work. We don't call it a living for nothing. It goes to food and housing, and without basic income those essentials feel like a struggle of life and death. In many cases physical violence would be less threatening.

For what, a hula doll? BS, that's an excuse to select a target. If it wasn't that it'd be something else. Anything to attack the "other".

Where is Antifa and BAMN? What are they going to about Hula dancers on peoples dash boards?

Yank people out of cars and assault them with rocks and pepper spray?

Whatever happens to MLK's words of let judge others by his/her content of character?

Now if the doll was a Hitler doll or a Chucky doll with a bloody head on his hand, then I could see her point but a hula doll? Goodness.

Quite revealing how desperate the degenerates have to be to dig up some bullshit from a year ago for the cause.

how about the rude Lyft driver with another passenger in the car, is he a cancer of this society?

wat

 

[purbeast0]

LOL ... everyone is offended by everything and you must bow down to them!

EDIT:

LOL wow ... just watched the whole video. It was hard to make it through the whole video because that stupid opinionated bitch was irritating my ear buds. I find it hilarious how she thinks making the video is going to help her case for something but I'm pretty sure every person who saw the video thinks she is a stupid bitch.

Title is misleading though, she didn't assault anyone.

 

[agent00f]

The crux of this issue is whether the hula girl is associated with negative/stereotyped imagery akin to said black face mammy. It's an debatable point though arguably not the most convincing.

Of course given present politics the topic naturally turned to backwards degenerates ranting about any semblance of modernity as usual.

It was probably a Lyft Line ride which she was too dumb to understand.

Apparently she has actually gone to insane asylums in the past. Oh, and she runs a porn website. Yet the Hula doll is degrading and offensive.

^ Brought to you by the same people digging up dirt on that doctor beaten up on the United flight. Degenerates gonna degenerate.

Wow, she seems a bit unstable. Like you get the normal SJW rhetoric and then you get this, I think she has mental problems

Why shouldn't they dig up dirt on her? It was apparently easy to find online, anyone that runs a major porn site isn't exactly a nobody.

No credibility what so ever.

WWII (in continental Europe) was primarily caused by the Treaty of Versailles. Generalissimo Foch (supreme commander of the allies) predicted correctly that it would amount a 20 year armistice of World War I.

It's a literal ad hom.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It's a literal ad hom.

It's not an argument, so no it isn't. I only watched part of that video, but the woman was the first one to say she wanted to dox the driver, so it sounds fair to me. I'm not sure if she was even properly doxxed or not; there's a difference between publicizing available information and publicizing home addresses/family, the latter going over the line.

The implication by degenerates is about as clear here as the United doctor.

Isn't this like an old story? I swear I saw it before. Many months ago.

This LibTard needs to be de-masked and blacklisted, wait can I say blacklisted if I am a white male? That could be construed as a negative connotation. I cannot stand this PC bullshit and I am not talking about my homemade X99A gaming rig! Men... do not just do things because someone tells you to, I teach my kids that, because it is dangerous. Do not give in to people who are trying to shame you and are basically being racist and sexist to you for nothing more than being. White male. That's literally pretty much what it comes down to at the end of the day, that you aren't a minority and you are inherently evil or bad because you aren't. It's completely horse crap don't buy into it, give them 1 STAR and put exactly why in the review. They will look stupid and you will have warned the backbone of American Society to stay away from these "Liberal", anti-FREE SPEECH, Fascists. Defund Public Universities who allow their Professors to tell students to violently protest and take a stance otherwise Liberals will be responsible for all our rights left will be taken away and we will be forced to do whatever they say, whatever they feel, like a leaf blowing in the wind. Fuck that.

I had a Hula Doll on my dashboard in college. It was awesome.

I see the USMC didn't do much for your thinking centers.

This is from August 2016. You must have gone deep into clickbait to even come up with something this old.

I came in here thinking the old thread had been bumped.
