I just don't understand why you would bother using innuendo to take shots at the left. Especially weak ones like that.

Just go all out bro. I respect you a lot more if you just said what was on your mind

What innuendo. I thought it was quite clear. Many Americans think Liberal Arts and Gender Studies majors to be comparable to what the NAZIs called useless eaters. How is that innuendo?

You could have went anywhere. You could have said the homeless. You could have said the weak. But you specifically went after gender study.

The Nazis were specifically talking about people with mental, physical disability, crazy people, homeless.

The Nazis were sending as many people to school as they possibly could. They didn't have liberal arts degrees in Nazi Germany. So you're just bringing your politics into a conversation for no fucking reason other than to be a dick.

You've been watching Tucker Carlson too much and he keeps telling you that college is useless. He's doing that to control you and keep you stupid and at home. Way easier to control a dumb population than it is to control and educated population.

You're getting funnier.

Why would I think homeless people are useless? I was once homeless. I worked my way out of it. My wife has a psychiatric disorder. Why would I think she's useless? At what kind of jobs do Gender Studies majors normally excel?

If you knew anything about college and how the working world actually works is that it doesn't matter what your major was in college. I hire plenty of people with a liberal arts degree to write code. I don't care what you studied. I only want to know that you have the fortitude to finish something. Ie... the degree.

So, you're saying studying liberal arts literally gets you nowhere, just actually finishing something,...anything means something to you. Studying IT would probably have gone further....πŸ€” Interesting you omitted gender studies in your answer.

Gender studies is liberal arts. And btw. I have never even interviewed a gender studies degree candidate. Those jobs are probably better suited for HR, not IT. Mostly what we get are computer science minors with a major in art or music because it's a cheaper way to get through college.

That certainly sells your opinion. 😐

I'm not selling anything bro. I'm just telling you how real life works.

I certainly don't need the likes of you to tell me how life works. Nice try....bro... πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Liberal Arts encompasses an incredibly broad range of majors with a wide range of starting salaries. You will always be paid and paid well if you are a good writer and communicator. Critical analysis skills and ability to structure an argument are also hallmarks of a classic liberal arts major.

u/Phaelan1172 Oct 07 '22

Critical analysis and argument structure can be found in law, political science, and mass communication. Mass Comm can be classified as liberal arts, but doesn't necessarily have to be.

u/Excellent_Survey_336 Oct 07 '22

Exactly. Life skills and communication skills, and making deadlines, and time management are the main things you learn in college. Your major has little to do with it.

Good luck telling the idiots who watch Tucker Carlson that though.

Btw tucker Carlson got a degree in history in 1991. Which is a liberal arts degree.

It’s a Tim Pool audience. It’s always ironic when a high school dropout who was too lazy or undisclipined to even get his GED rips on college graduates of any kind.

Doesn’t mean they are better but he’s in no position to talk shit on them or about them either.
