I fail to see how this game is "sjw propoganda"

Wazza, garbage human being here. I think this thread is actually SJW propaganda. lol ups.... I just committed a thought-crime... I better find the exit....

Ok, just think about this for a second.... And I am speaking as a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy with a Minor (6 creds short of a double major) in Religion.

I am an Atheist, and I work as a Gaffer and DMX Tech on movies and TV sets, and am still paying my student loan for a degree I will never "make money" from.

I don't consider my education a waste, but I do think if I had been less idealistic as a young man and perhaps had a shred of guidance from a parent (mine are not the guidance types), maybe I would have used my degree to learn something interesting and make money while doing it.

People that study fields that are unlikely to pay them well in the future, are either idealistic and ignorant (me) or hopelessly stupid.

Crossroads.

The extremes of politics, like the extremes of religion, are where the absurd cringe fringe reside, and I for one think they should be killed with vengeance. I am tired of it.

Cheap one. Always comes when I say that. But just think about it. For yourself.

And professions have levels of usefulness. You are right about different points of view. But mine would be smth based on Maslow's hierarchy of needs. No one would need web designer if he wouldn't have doctor. Trust me not everyone equally useful.

If you are talking at all about my pov, and that is that of extremism is stupid, I lol at your post.

Otherwise, sure, yay, incloosive.

Speaking of extremes...

you were saying that everyone in the "real SJW community" whatever that means today, are, and i quote:
"aren't very smart and usually in useless studies which will never provide them normal income, so they just blame anyone who has something better".

saying that everyone with a certain viewpoint is a victim of that Dunning Kruger effect. Huge generalization and cheap shot at all those people.


ill apologize for my closeminded generalizations about education if you apologize for your generalizations about them all being racist, sexist, "not very smart" people with llow income wanting to blame others! deal? 

I, for one, am very excited to live in our irredeemably dead superior society without such useless things as art, literature, poetry, film & television, music, philosophy, and, yes, video games.
Pass me some "normal" income and a doctor.

This is all or nothing. Im saying to watch a movie is not equal as to have operation, and you say it must be as important or no one can have it.

I will say one more thing against my better judgment, Quiggles, because it's bothering me:

if certain people hadn't majored in such a financially risky field as theatre, do you think you would have a job working on film and tv sets? What if all the actors who went to drama schools and the writers who specialized in screenwriting hadn't done that? They might still produce -- but far, far more slowly -- and many would not do it at all, because it is very, very hard to consistently produce or train (not to mention audition) in one of these artforms while working 40 hrs/week doing something else, especially if that position is salaried and so requires you to take work home or stay late.

A healthy society with a dynamic, thriving culture worth living in needs all kinds of people contributing to it -- there is symbiosis -- your more practical job working tech on tv & movie sets fundamentally depends on people who did not choose a financially 'safe' path for their lives. Otherwise your job would not even exist, or there would be fewer opportunities for it (working newsrooms, for ex), and maybe you wouldn't have been hired over someone else.

Maybe people shouldn't major in these things just for the shit of it, because without passion and dedication (+ lots of luck, or independent wealth) you won't make it in these increasingly competitive arts fields, at least not in the US system. While majoring in philosophy does have value -- and may have in fact given you some of the skills that helped you succeed -- it's probably not a super great idea to major in philosophy if you don't want to be a philosopher/philo professor at a university, or do not have the mind to make it far enough in that highly competitive arena (I mean no disrespect by that--just that philo is like mathematics, not everyone can do it professionally). But if everyone followed this advice because doing otherwise is ignorant or stupid, where would we be?
