I believe they also used cocaine, as a stimulant and the anesthesic properties of it for obvious reasons of being in war time. And also downers and opiates were in abundance.
But @bojack the allies and Japanese were also giving their soldiers amphetamines. I think it was especially common for fighter pilots
The face(s) of female chauvinism:
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A fashion show inspired by the #MeToo social media campaign aimed at exposing sexual misconduct across the United States opened on Friday in New York with models sporting angel wings handcuffed to men in pig masks. . . . āThe me-too movement is not about man-hating; it is not about fighting violence with violence,ā said Kozakiewicz.
Itās not about man-hating. Itās about dehumanizing men and deifying women.
Nice insight. See a lot more (of related) information coutesy of Quincy Jones
If Quincyās revelation concerning Naziās and cocaine isnāt in that link, let me know. Itās worth the wait (and Iām not frankly up to finding it right now, but Iāll hunt it down when I am).
Iām not finding what you want me to read. But itās a lot to comb through.
Iām actually fascinated about how drugs affect people. And I believe every society since documented history has shown the use of psychoactive drugs.
Read the whole thing; especially encouraged as youāre a US citizen. You need to know every opinion and viewpoint of QJ, imo, heās an og American superhero. Plus itās not like youāre likely to die of boredom doing so. The man sells entertainment, after all.
Dude, sorry to hear stuff like this is happening.
I and guys/girls my age all agree when we talk about it, that we are SO glad we did not go through our college age when the Internet and digital cameras and FB were around. Too much stuff can arbitrarily happen and then get suddenly posted and then poof your whole life may possibly change.
With children now, the key thing weāll talk to them about is no āneedā to have FB, in which case some day they may potentially be bombarded by classmates (female or male) who tease and berate them unmercifully for no apparent reason. If you donāt have FB, you wonāt know about it and you can blissfully on with life or at least not give 2 shits about that stuff.
I honestly believe that LINE, Whatsapp, Skype, etc. are good enough for keeping in touch with friends and family members, and LINE even has news items (like FB) that you can forward, and those news items are not censored by FB āeditorsā.
Okay. Iāll get off my soapbox on FB now.
Quite the colorful figure, and refreshingly non-PC. Didnāt know heād planned on going to Sharon Tateās place the night of the murders. I remember him mentioning in another interview about Richard Pryor sleeping with Brando.
FB is a useful tool to connect with many people, especially if youāve moved around. However there are downsides to it.
Luckily most people that know me know Iām not a person like. And those who believe her, which is less and less with her crazy feminist rants and views, are those with the same extreme views. Itās just an a scary experience seeing that someone can just spread lies like that, especially when itās happening to you. I canāt prove I never touched her. And Iām left defenseless to someone who just wanted to say something so horrible about me. I canāt believe she would say this to people she and I know and tell the lies she made up to people. How sick of a person do you have to be to tell people that someone sexually harassed/abused you knowing it was a complete lie and it would hurt their reputation always.
All of this is ironic as one of the things she argued with me about in the post I disagreed with her on was that no one believes women in the apparent ārape cultureā we in are. And always blames the women in victim blaming.
She has become more and more extreme as a feminist and social justice warrior. She is always posting about how white people are oppressors, ridiculous body positivity posting pictures of obese āmodelsā and saying how theyāre so brave and beautifulā¦āeducatingā people about how to use transsexuals proffered pronouns, posting pictures of women āfree bleedingā I would not suggest you look that up if you have the benefit of never seeing it. Sheās just posting about all the āinjusticesā of the world and how sheās always a victim. And her weekly gender queer femmes fashion outfit of the weekā¦ apparently she thinks they are so fashionable.
This is how feminists are, they always result to being the victim when confronted with the truth. Look at Cathy Newman, plays the victim after Jordan Peterson made a fool of her saying she needed security after the ādebateā. (I assume youāve seen the interview?)
Yeahā¦ seen the interview.
Some/most of these people live in an alternate universe.
SJWsā¦ a lovely group in society that want to enforce their views on everyone who disagrees with them.
The āSJā is a pretty code word (at its most basic) for anti-free speech and other forms of control over certain entitlements within society (whether good or bad).
Hypervictimization is the final, bitter stage of making self the center of oneās existence.
WWJD?
(J = Jake LaMotta)
Idk, but itās messed up. Accusing someone of something like that can seriously mess with your life. I avoid seeing people I used to know because she spread that thing around and it got spread around. Itās an awful feeling.
Btw when I asked @rowland about that, he didnāt have anything to say. Maybe this time heāll enlighten us?
Thatās absolutely appalling. Is that for real? Can you imagine someone doing the same thing with the gender role models reversed?
And they managed to get a non-white male model, just to make it doubly offensive.
OTOH, itās probably best not to take these things too seriously. Shock value sells stuff, and PR people usually know how to calibrate the generated outrage at just the right level to make some sales.
One of the most watched annual sporting events in the world has gone away with podium girls.
TdF has been boring for quite some time now.
Rather watch them race in Spain or Italy.
Not sure if that was sarcastic? Nonethelessā¦
They call that the Vuelta de Espana. Also a grand tour. Also happens every year. Alsoā¦got rid of podium girls.
They call that the Giro dāItalia. Also a grand tour. Also happens every year. Who have notā¦gotten rid of podium girls.
HERE we go, UFC will have one of their male fighter ( who is a model too) be a RINGBOY
Weāll I guess this Feminist movement is creating jobs for male models and taking away from Female modelsā¦
No, not sarcastic. TdF, to me, has been boring.
Iād rather watch the other 2. Just my opinion.
