Why the fuck are we all jumping on BC's dick because he's rich. I don't know how he made his money, but being rich doesn't disqualify him from understanding fundamental aspects of human psychology and motivation.

Is he better off than most people and, probably, everybody on this forum? Yes. If he removed from the daily struggles of most people? Sure. But that doesn't make him wrong, in any sense. If you disagree with him, just because he's rich, then you're just as guilty as what you criticise him of.

I'm just mad over the small paragraph he wrote on living a fantastic life on minimum wage

It's optimistic, obviously, and a little misguided. But there's no reason to get malicious with him simply because he's somewhat naive. He isn't wrong, either, I've known people who were happy on minimum wage, going through life with a sense of contentedness. He isn't saying "If you aren't happy on minimum wage, you're a disgusting freeloader who needs to appreciate life more", he's saying that people are primarily driven by a sense of purpose and appreciation, and that it's possible, with the right mindset, to be happy while not in the best financial position.

Seriously, come up with a more intellectual approach. Sounds like what some kid in special ed would say

Knock it off, for fuck's sake. You only just got out of a ban.

Say it with me. . .

Transparency and communication.

What would you want more? The chat logs?

I will say, however, that the moderation system genuinely needs more transparency.

No, not that much. The moderation team still needs to remain "above" the community as it were.

I think a good start would be more communication between the users and the moderators. Such as a "We've got your report, and have done X or Y", or "We've got your report and the whole team is considering it".

I don't know about the volume of reports, which could make such a thing difficult. That could, however, be remedied by either a larger moderation team, a more standardised system of assessment and punishment and a more inclusive role for the monitors. The first one, of course, is least desirable as you want to maintain the ratio at something reasonable, although expanding the remit of monitors to act as communicators on behalf of the ninjas - sort of like press secretaries - could be a potential solution.

We shouldn't have access to the chat logs, though.

I might be willing to do a few book reviews.

Oh my actual shit-licking, Jesus-fucking tittytwisters. I think I'm genuinely autistic.

I know using the term "criminal culture" is bound to rupture some anuses something almighty, so let me clarify.

This criminal culture among black people is, obviously, linked to gang culture among relatively destitute and impoverished black communities, which are usually hit hard by unemployment and poor education.

So my question is - how much does rap music exacerbate this problem?

His mother or sister had surely recently hand-scrubbed that shirt with care.

Are you actually fucking kidding me?

Really? It's times like this I really do hope the HuffPost is satire of liberals. Fucking hell.

until there is a total ban

I'm going to stop you there because, I don't know what the rumors are across the pond, but we don't have a total gun ban.

I'm a person that supports a Republic, not a Democracy as it's essentially a dictatorship by the majority. The U.S for certain isn't a Democracy, nor was it founded on Democracy ideals; it was founded on the ideas of a Republic

What? The two aren't mutually exclusive. You can be a republic and a democracy - as America is.

motorised rollinghams always gets me

That time of the month?
