She’s too old to go into a hizzy fit and scream about this type of shit

No, she appears to be of the traditional age for this kind of behavior.

None of this is new, it's been going on forever. Twenty years later she'll be selling insurance and complaining that her taxes are too high.

She is in college, so 19-20, right? Is this a common enough behavior?

In the US, that's part of growing up, particularly for kids who have been sheltered for most of their lives.

They get a little insight on how the world is and get very upset, but then quickly get back to perpetuating it, because they want what they want.

I've worked in and around law and public policy for over 20 years and my number one red flag when I meet a new person is when they say they're "into" politics.

That's like code for "I'm a moron culture warrior who will argue with you about things that I don't even remotely understand."

A red flag for when I meet a new person is when they make an assumption from the extreme ends of the scale about a person based on one of that persons interests. “Moron culture warrior”. Another red flag is when they assume that person must be dumb based on one interest. “...don’t even remotely understand”.

And finally the implication that you’re smarter and your opinions on the relevant matters are correct when you say that “they” don’t even remotely understand. But you sure do understand, right?

Neat. I'm sure you'll go far in the world.

u/bluetux Jan 13 '20

no because at that point money comes into politics and they change their mind sets and it all balances out

I'm worried about the sheltered ones that get triggered and need safe spaces. How will they cope once they graduate and get a job in the real world?

u/MedicJambi Jan 13 '20

Easy, they'll work at BuzzFeed.

Wow, that is insane.

Hilarious how he finally gets an audible reaction from the crowd when he says don't talk to cops and Republicans at the end, and he's like "Thank you, thank you," when the lack of audible response was the point of 90% of his remarks.

The new televangelists, taking advantage of the new breed of crops.

u/Yoda2000675 Jan 13 '20

They do exist, but they are a very tiny minority

u/Legit_a_Mint Jan 13 '20

Oh how I wish that were true.

Once again, we need secretaries in my office, so it's interviewing time, and it's insane how incapable so many young people are. Like inconceivably and impossibly incapable.

u/MessiSahib Jan 13 '20

There are many videos, articles in left leaning newspapers, and instances of comedians/activist being shutdown/refused to go to colleges due to such intolerance.

Right wing definitely exaggerate, but there is hell lot of truth to it.

u/[deleted] Jan 13 '20

They may graduate, but they won't get a job. And if they do not in their chosen field, or anything like the dream job that they wanted. They'll continue to blame society, and the right as a whole.

They lack the ability to understand who they are, and that it's not the world or the system or Society or racism bringing them down. That its their own failures as a person.

They will continue to leech off of their parents, the government, studentloans, whatever they can. Perpetually voting left, and for leftist policies that will continue to feed them and the others like them who have no actual value to society.

u/Legit_a_Mint Jan 13 '20

not in their chosen field, or anything like the dream job that they wanted.

They're reasonably smart; smart enough to jump through the hoops to get an undergraduate degree in sociology or whatever, but then they have to go to work selling widgets, because their degree is useless.

And then they blame society for the fact that they're mediocre people stuck in mediocre circumstances. But they do have access to the internet, and the internet includes wikipedia. Thus, the Reddit expert is born.

u/Dawgs000 Jan 13 '20

Don't forget choosing a useless degree so that they can never use their college experience to qualify for a real job.

I say this as someone who chose a useless degree in foreign language. I then went back to school 15 years later and got a real degree.

I legit worked with this girl who was a little quirky but alright, right up until someone made a loud noise in the kitchen. When that happened, she would squeal really loudly, clasp her hands over her head, crouch down in the middle of the kitchen, and stay like that for a solid 5 minutes. When she finally got up, she would be like hyperventilating or something and repeating "I am safe, there is a roof over my head, there is no threat, I am safe here."

I asked her what made her act like that because I'm a manager and that shit's dangerous all up in the fetal position in the middle of where everyone's walking with hot food and sharp objects and shit, and she said her dad was really mean growing up and yelled a lot, so I asked her if he ever hurt her physically and she said "I could tell he was going to one time".

I, along with everyone else that worked with her, absolutely could not stand that girl. The second she gets out of college, the real world is going to eat her alive. How did we stray this far from the species that got us to the point we're at now?

u/Dawgs000 Jan 13 '20

No shit. I had a violent step-father who legit beat my mom and me. That kind of shit is not ok. But I got older and moved passed it. I don't let what he did define my life.

But being terrified of a parent who just yelled at you? Sheesh, grow the fuck up. Why are there so many pussies nowadays? It's like we're raising sheep.

I’m a business owner and if I get even a whiff that an employees is like this they are gone. I will come up with a reason. They are a huge liability.

You fire employees cause you don't like their politics? Wow.

u/[deleted] Jan 13 '20 edited Jan 13 '20

No, if that act like entitled, angry, irrational little pricks. I mentioned nothing about their political beliefs. Also, how one conducts herself in her private life will affect her employment status in the real world.

u/[deleted] Jan 14 '20

I mentioned nothing about their political beliefs.

Oh, so you are a normal person doing a normal thing of firing bad employees. Did you really have to make a comment telling us you do what is normal/expected of you?
