On the topic of "identifying the problem not being enough," I can come up with an example we all well know: inflation. Yes, inflation is a problem when your money buys less things. But when you see many people give their input for solutions, they would often make the problem worse. For example: "The government needs to provide more financial assistance to people." when that "assistance" would just mean more money printing and more of the same problem.

Watching interviews like this are a great way to slow boil my blood. Much of it has to do with Scott Galloway. To his credit, he can correctly assess what the problems are, but he will constantly bend over backwards to deny the underlying causes of the problems (mainly feminism).

This just goes to show that identifying the problem is not enough when looking for solutions, as many "solutions" will just make the problem worse. Scott Galloway offers only bad solutions.

@caekislove @MCMLXVIIOTG @sickburnbro it is really the lefties' fault that it happened, because the wanted to have their "historical moment" all neatly wrapped up rather than have any sense of pragmatism when it came to replace Supreme Court Justices.

We can all learn from this lesson that it was a childish idea to hold out for a woman president replacing a woman justice with another woman, as well as laugh at the fact that they are so worked up over the consequences of poor foresight.

@JoeBravo77 it does bo good to pick someone to "code talk" to a group of people who see the pick as a traitor to their principles. The fact that this was their thought process shows they have no idea how to actually appeal to anyone beyond superficial traits.

@deprecated_ii most people do not hate themselves or their parents enough to do that. And we should take anything seriously from someone who thinks mutilating their body and inserting concoctions of hormones is a reasonable idea.

Relevant, as it is happening right now. But it might stop being "slow" if we find far too many people desparate with nothing to lose.

Sometimes you also get a good copypasta.

Posting some gems from the website that is now dead. 4chan may be dead, but the screenshots anyone has kept will live on.

@RodrickSage At least you learned this lesson. Some people never learn, and continue to add debt upon debt getting new cars every year, all because they think that "I can trade the car I got just few years ago and get a good deal!" Such is the justification of those who want to keep up appearances, all the while never getting rid of their debt.

Whatever your thoughts are on abortion, I have to note that those who are "pro-choice" always have a problem whenever anyone who is pro-life displays the images of aborted babies. They have all sorts of complaints about it, because they know full well that if they have to see the results of the policies they support, they would have to confront the morality of the issue.

These images show that it is not just about "a woman's right to choose."

@Hoss anyone who is not a moron should know that when you pay hundreds/thousands of dollars for any "designer" brands you are not paying for the material and labor, but rather the brand name itself.

You could apply this to a lot of things. Too many people will pay extra just to say that they have [current trendy brand product].
