Controversial problems with the evolution of green stage relationships? Confused

[billiesimon]

I'm genuinely shocked by this lol.... 
Nowadays you can't EVEN be a classic liberal. The historical and quintessential definition of a good hearted, tolerant and egalitarian politician.

Motherfucking JFK is a fuckin nazi!!! LOOOOL that's sooo ridiculous!! Ahahahah  Tomorrow hippies are going to be called the new KKK, according to the left

@Emerald I know I'm not really a part of this conversation, but to be fair what you're doing does feel an awful lot like a high-pressure sales tactic. There are groups on both the right and the left who tout being uncompromising. Every political group with a strong opinion sees itself as the minority, as the victim. Unless you've got some statistics to back up your claims, I don't think it's fair to assume that centrists are any more susceptible to converting to the right than to the left.

EDIT: For clarification, by minority here I mean minority in terms of political thought.

So, if you think I'm being paranoid, I just hope you don't like peanut butter that much.

 

And so as you hear these words
telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life
I wish I could but it's too late

 

Communists were anti-nazism, nazis were anti communism. Both were insane. These are extreme ends of the political spectrum, not the ACTUAL center.

Learn the difference between poles and center  much love. Changing political compass has nothing to do with the single ideologies. Ideologies are static. People change according to what is their walk of life.

Is this some kind of political flirting?  I'm flattered by such a persistent woman  (I'm joking, don't get mad XD)

I like nutella hazelnut chocolate, which is very popular here in Italy  Peanut butter is for lame americans

Yeah, didn't you know? Now the liberal center is the epitome of political extremism and potatoes grow in the stratosphere.

I'm literally just telling him something that's happening and telling him to watch out. But he still thinks I'm paranoid about this. 

No, I just gave you a nice seventies song about it.

Which you ignored  probably didn't even listen to  I am also somehow decent at playing it. Maybe.

So, I didn't listen to it this time. Especially, because you were using it to call me paranoid. 

Noooooooo  do you realize that I looked it up and pasted it just for you? I spent almost 2 minutes to find it and write the last lyrics  what a waste of my gift.

No, it was not to mock you, I've always been peaceful in this conversation. It just came up in my mind while reading the word "paranoid", also because english is not my mother tongue and "paranoid" just triggers my memory of this song  and also to make the discussion lighter, you're too tense

Swing dancing.  (Or any dancing)

I think partner dancing is a great way to have fun, to have a three minute connection with someone and then to respectfully move on.  It may help you orient yourself to the energies or experiences that you are looking for so that you can advocate that more clearly.  It can help to build healthy self-and-other respecting boundaries too.

@Emerald You should be renamed as "amber" instead of Emerald because you're totaly yellow on this one

I really liked your answers but nonetheless there is something I wish to adress.

 Have you ever lacked representation in the media as a heterosexual?

 

While I am working towards green, I am triggered by representation on purpose.

Let me explain : very strong women in Star Wars 7 on purpose the crazy admiral haristyle pink air, black hermione in Harry Potter, adding gay or black characters here and there just because you NEED to add them otherwise you're racist etc.

For instance some black artists complained there were no black actors at Oscars. Well if they're all bad there is nothing to be done. Maybe the do suffer from underrepresentation because they tend to have less opportunities but adding BAD black actors to oscars for equality is simply travesty. The same tendency goes everywhere : some universities in Canada wanna recruit professors who are women, handicapped and part of a minorty ONLY because hey you have to be representative and WHO care about your skills ? This is why I feel like sometime altough it might not be true - privilege is faught with reverse privilege instead of real organic solutions.

Everyone should be integrated and have equal opportunites but competency is extremely important and should not assume roles, be it providing entretainement or education simply based on the fact such or such area lacks x type of people.

Most blatant example of this is Katy Perry "hey hey hey" : a Jeanne D'Arc with a LGBT dress fighting off a pig-like male figure. Amazing. This is not art - this is propaganda !

@Lynnel I’m neutral in this question but what if the judges are a bunch of white people, who don’t get “ black culture” so they don’t like it. Then what?

Katy Perry, female empowerment at any cost
