BTW, this reminds me of that idiocy about "teach the evolution controversy" laws. Conservatives disguise them as laws that supposedly "open up the debate" but in reality want creationism to invade the education system. Same thing here, "let's protect the children from a problem that does not exist so we can forbid crazy men-womin to go into the bathroom they feel more confortable with". We surely can expect more shennanigans at that front too. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trum...
Creationists --> crazy
Gender-swappers --> crazy
Heaven's Gate Hale-Bopp comet cult --> crazy
Self-castration --> crazy

fun fact: heaven's gate still exists. it's just two guys keeping up the website now. lol, I can imagine the dialog "So we were left behind... let's continue the mission!" ]]> 45th President of the United States of America being sworn in http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=7&threadid=170475 2017-02-25T21:20:04 -05.00 NewUser123456789 1081 Originally posted by: Tulpa

Well those are very different kinds of languages though.
But some of the principles of learning them are the same. Pattern recognition, syntax, etc. Well that's true but programming languages don't include speaking/listening parts like foreign languages do.  Though foreign language studies do include that language's country/culture and what not, I suppose the history of computer programming would most definetly be a part of computer programming study, especially in beginning classes.  For instance, Ada Lovelace essentially did for computer programming what Florence Nightingale did for modern nursing...and that was over 100 years before we had any sort of electronic computers!!

Lol defensive much?  eesh

the discussion was geared to media against trump. So yeah im talking anout liberal media This thread has so much bullshit hysteria in it, its sad i even have to counter it with any rational trump defense. I dont want to freaking defend Trump but thats how ridiculous this shit has become. There is plenty about him I dont like. Why is any person that doesnt like these new age liberals labeled rush limbaugh? Wtf? Im not 50-60 years old. I dont listen to rush limbaugh. 

im not a republican or democrat. Im liberatarian. But as the saying goes. I hate conservatives, but i fuckin really hate liberals. The democratic party is so far gone. Its completely changed. I wish we could get some classic liberals back. I can listen to david reuben talk and debate. He himself as a lifelong democrat has left the party. Its gone off the deep end. Not saying their arent crazy republicans and conservatives too. But this trump election(nationalist populist movement) has made the democrat party show their new colors. They are doubling down. They are basically giving him another term. Thanks democrats.


this is part of the problem. When i say liberals of course i dont mean every single one. Thats such a strawman complaint. Its as one might say. "Typical liberal"

 


Defensive of what?  Democrats? no freaking way.  I dont give a shit about "real" liberals, or new school conservatives, or libertarians for that matter.  Your posts are making you seem that political jerk on social media, that acts holier than thou, because you are a "libertarian".

Edit- I realized, I am also now the other jerk arguing with you, however I am arguing not about politics but insulting people - so Ill probably end it with this post, because this whole presidential thing is just silly
See thats what you are interpreting. Which is wrong. Im not shouting at anyone or insulting anyone. All Ive done is plead with people to actually look into things before bitching about the end of the world.

When Im in a discussion with someone on here like arch or whoever. Im not yelling or shouting like im holier than thou at anyone. Your just reading it wrong and have it in your head thats how Im responding. Sorry if it comes off that way. ]]> 45th President of the United States of America being sworn in http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=7&threadid=170475 2017-02-25T21:09:56 -05.00 NewUser123456789 1081 Originally posted by: quest4nes

thats why when I see bullshit on here links posted its frustrating because people dont look at both sides or really into the issue. They just start ranting of how bad trump is. Criticism is fine, but my god people talk about stuff that doesnt even matter or is distorted like its the end of the world. 

All I can say is Im happy hillary wasnt elected. Agree with trump or not, I dont think the country needed an obama 3rd term. And on top of that it would have been warhawk foreign interfering hillary(the worst part of establishment republican BS) on top of neo liberal social agenda.
 


Why do you add some dig about liberals in every single post in this thread? You sound like a summary of every rush limbaugh podcast ever.  You use the term liberals so derogatorily for some reason, don't you feel silly making such broad generalizations?
I would if I was cared about either party.

You make it seem like liberals are the only zombies that reguritate whatever the most click bait political headline is, when in fact, here where I live in probably the most liberal area of the country, Conservatives are just as bad if not worse- take this from someone who avoids politics at all costs.

Ive seen more stupid trump flags on 13" lifted Diesel f350s than ever before, and I always just laugh at the idiocy.  Between the priuses with hilary stickers and the god damn trump F350's I feel like we are in the twilight zone

I am meaning that fair and honest coverage isnt leaking into the mainstream. Its washed out by hysteria garbage
 

So just to be clear, you are saying that you don't consider the BBC, one of the largest news organizations in the world, to be "mainstream"?
 

you are missing the point entirely. Im not talking about the mainstream media outlets individually themselves. I am talking about what people hear and circulate. 
 
If "people" are only hearing and circulating what CNN and FOx News have to say, then those people are morons.

 

Not really just those. Its the shared link liberal circle jerk on facebook etc.
 

As opposed to the shared conservative circle jerk on facebook etc?

(I have friends and family on both sides of the issue, so I know that your complaint cuts both ways)



And really, now, your complaint isn't with "mainstream media" at all... it's with people getting their "news" coverage from social media, exclusively.

That is a totally different complaint, IMO.


well mainstream liberal media dictates talking points and marching orders down to their surrogates like salon huffpo etc.   . Thats the shit that gets circulated. If I deleted one friend on facebook in particular I dont think Id ever see anything conservative.
I can't tell you how much wnd and breibart I saw during Obama.  All of it is moronic.   Probably why I barely Facebook
