chetty:
a contestant in the oppression olympics.//+++++
pankkake: As for her friends, they were almost exclusively other oppressed SJWs. Although friend is
a strong term. She had many fights with them that basically boiled down to "stop complaining about your oppression, mine is more important." She was, essentially,
a contestant in the oppression olympics.
lobbes: I would also qualify as one of these peasants; hell, I'm essentially

a two way business
Vexual: give me an email and
a rate ben10
mircea_popescu: except... it is obnoxious as fuck for clerks to decide the management is "
a supersitious buyer".
mircea_popescu: " It’s like formally changing

a request comes in to van-ads.com/venues/drinkingrecord/* i log the time to the db
mircea_popescu: but anyway, for closure : the resistance to anything unlawful is not
a right, it's
a freedom. no court has or could have any authority to create
a right out of it, or in any way to curtail it.
ben_vulpes: the notion that cops would know one boggles me wee brain
a bit
