PROGRESSIVELY getting worse right?
I've had a few liberals argue differently... that the country is getting better & better.
We peaked in the 80's... been downhill ever since 9/11.
There's been very little reason to hold any optimism about the future of this country since Bush.
On an individual basis... sure... life can always get better.... but for society... steadily in decline and will never get any better.

I'd say we peaked in the 60's/70's if we're going by average standard of living. We had a much stronger market in the 80's which allowed the billionaires to really start pulling away, but it definitely didn't improve for the average person, in fact housing in terms of median home price vs median income has never been higher. Obviously the 80's are a godsend compared to now, even when I was in college in the late 00's, broke students can afford rent... nowadays? No shot.

The 70's was the last time workers earnings keep up with productivity, after that, it all started to go to the top 1%, but I felt like overall the economy and country was in good shape through the 80's & esp 90's, when we were no longer involved in the Cold War. After 9/11 though, I felt like the country never recovered. And post pandemic, housing costs have become astronomical.

One could argue the 60's were a complete nightmare.... those were wild times. Kennedy, King, Vietnam.... In terms of Patriotism, the 40's & 50's were the peak... we fell off in the 60's... but then established equal opportunity.
Patriotism and equal opportunity were about as good as it gets in the 80s... 90's weren't horrible, but Gen X was starting to get a little out of control.
When people say MAGA... and then the question is asked: when was America ever great?.... I point to the 80s. Make America Great Again like the 80's.... but that's just a fantasy and can never happen.

1970...coincides when the gold standard was abandoned. interesting how the gold standard was proclaimed to be some sort of bottleneck for our economy but abandoning it only managed to create an irreversible wealth gap that continues to grow exponentially.

I like Mahar but this one is not his best take. Interviewing some randos is completely anecdotal. And they probably Interviewed 1000 people to get some comedic answers like Leno did.
Also a high school diploma has never meant anything other than to get into college. We've always known you can be a dumb ass and graduate high school. White collar companies only look at college degrees. They never ask to see a high school diploma.

In relation to standard of living:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0qHA93oOSc
The United States standard of living has been steadily improving and our GDP per capita has been steadily increasing, yes when adjusted for inflation. More people have more money (yes adjusted for inflation). People were poor as shit in the 60s and 70s, the hippy days.
Any of you who think the 60s or 70s were peak? if you were transported to that time right now you would be so bored out of your mind that you would wonder how anyone lived this way, and then you'd want to slit your throat.
Also thanks to the internet, we are a more intelligent. We wouldn't even be able to have this discussion in the 60s or 70s. The internet made all the dumb people visible, we can see people like Doomsday who think there is a correlation between super hero movies and real life, and it makes us all feel like the world is retarded. But those retarded people have always been around, they've just been hidden until now.

So which is it Bill Gates? Idiocracy or we are becoming better? Can't have it both ways.
And do you ever look at the pros & CONS of the internet? Because I think a lot of people would agree that society & humanity were much better off without it.
Part of the reason why the 80's were so awesome is because there was no internet... I'd argue to say that in 2025 our social skills have gone to complete $hit... Or atleast that's what I see in this post Covid19 era.
You were once forced to leave the cave, go outside, and meet people... and better yet, your parents probably forced you to go outside and play or ride your bike without supervision at age 7.
Our sense of "community" is long gone... and that is 100% thanks to the internet.

Kill me now.
Humanity was so much better off without the internet... and not everybody was materialistic as they are today. Much better times.
The 80's kinda of gave birth to materialism... But it wasn't everybody's top priority like it is today....
You didn't have to keep up with Joneses (in the 50's 60's and 70's) like you do today... Everybody was the Jones. There was balance. The same balance you liberals supposedly crave for today.

I feel like the internet was honestly a huge positive until social media blew up, it didn't consume people's entire lives, but there was still enough to provide entertainment in addition to tv & video games.
Let's be real, there's still a ton of positives about the internet, genuinely anything you need can be received within a day, you can advance your career or education with the click of a button, you can also look up or research literally anything you want within the blink of an eye. Personally, the internet has given me the flexibility to work remotely which is an absolutely life changing godsend. So the insinuation the internet is this colossal net negative is just false. Imo it's really the social media aspect that's entirely toxic.
You're also clearly incapable of seeing past your ridiculous level of nostalgic bias for the 80's, materialism & excess were arguably the most defining features of that decade.

Yea I'd say it started in the 80s... Keeping up with the Joneses started around the 80s... which isn't necessarily a bad thing... but it gradually got more & more extreme. If the 80's were excess, what were the decades to follow?
One could argue the 50s were the best decade as far as the middle-class is concerned... but you still had segregation, and low standard of living, no personality, no equal opportunity.

I think Covid19 is where it started to have a serious negative impact on society. Many people now work remote jobs, work at home, very little social interaction... It's relaxing to be a recluse for a little awhile, but long term it really starts to f*ck with your social skills... Society is starting to figure this out the hard way.
Also... do highschool kids have parties anymore? I honestly don't think they do. I mean, I guess that is a good thing but f*ck... where is the human spirit in that?

It's a grey topic, the internet. In many ways we have benefited, in other ways we have regressed. It's definitely created a new form of addiction. And men who sit around watching porn all day long are not healthy. And there are a plethora of retarded conspiracy theories out there putting people in fear and making them think the Earth is flat. But compared to the 70s and 80s? We can very easily look up any questions we have. We have an enormous wealth of knowledge at our fingertips. When I get in an argument with my girlfriend, we can immediately look up who was right and who was wrong.
Overall, generally speaking, we have much more knowledge than in the past.
I think where we have become an Idiocracy is honestly just the fact that we are spoiled beyond belief. "Woke" is like one big giant nothing burger and the internet has made many think it's the end of the world. It's partly stupidity, but the fact that a man playing women's sports is a big topic means that we simply don't have any real actual concerns, we are spoiled.

nah, social media began having negative effects pre-covid. it just accelerated during covid bc during covid social media was the primary means of communication. 2016 election was the first election to my best memory where social media played a large role.
fb has had a ton of lawsuits related to suicidality as a result of online bullying through their platform. whistleblowers have revealed how they have been making predatory algorithms towards their users. some of those kids that have taken their lives were targeted by the social media companies through amplification loops that displayed content that poked at their vulnerabilities.
there's a reason why instagram shoves ragebait into your face. i stopped looking at the explore page bc it's just content creators making stupid videos that are clearly false/wrong/retarded yet the instagram algo puts them first because they are specifically looking for engagement. emotion content=emotional reaction - jeff, ISH owner, has taken a similar approach by the looks of it. he realizes this forum is dead and the only thing keeping it alive are mentally ill individuals that have deranged thoughts to share.

as a man, and I believe many others here can testify as well, there's no spoiled food that makes one wants to play women's sports.
a man playing women's sports is of coures, not any real actual concerns, but when you upgrade it to random aliens outside women shelters haunting them, it's extremely troublesome, isn't it.

Wokeness encompasses many things
You could be woke about climate change for example. Gretta Thumburg would definitely be considered woke about climate change.
It's much more than men playing in women's sports. You guys have simplified it to one issue.
It's an indoctrination of liberal logic that includes Socialism, Open Borders, Abortion Outrage, Feminazi ideology, CRT/BLM riots (legalizing shoplifting/ defunding police), DEI, Censorship/Cancel Culture, Trans Rights (for children), and even Covid Mandates. It can also extend geopolitically to Hamas and Ukraine.
So I just want to clear that up next time the average libtard suggests wokeness only entails keeping men out of women's bathrooms.
If I call somebody woke... it means you've somehow been indoctrinated into supporting most of the retarded issues I've listed... I don't know if it's fear of being politically incorrect, ignorance & misunderstanding the government's incompetence/role, or having too much empathy on certain issues that deserve no empathy at all... but I suspect the majority of it is derived from TDS.
Just wanted to clear that up before I go about my day. Thank You, and God Bless.

fundamentally, it has everything to do with kids shouldn't be dating because they are too young, they should focus on better themselves in the hopes of meeting the exact right person in the future, where as it should be, it's perfectly fine to date, just try not to make fun of them too much and make them feel like a complete reject.
this massive gap was created in peoples childhood, and sure, you can say it was filled with patriotism or humanitarianism, yet with that, people failed to listen.

So Elon Musk is "woke" then? Because he is battling climate change? You are changing the definition to just mean "left leaning". Sorry.
I'd say 90% of the time that word comes up it just means someone saw a movie where a black person or woman are in a lead role. Or a sports team mascot changed. It is almost always something that makes no difference at all to anyone's life.

We are just having a semantics debate about what "woke" means. Student debt issues have been around forever, that one is not "woke". Neither is socialism, immigration has been a real issue forever, min wage, etc. Blacks have wanted reparations since before you were born. All the stuff you listed there has been around longer than wokeness has.
You have just evolved the word "woke" to mean "all things left".

Democrats pour into Washington state as Republicans leave, analysis shows - Jan. 20, 2025 8 a.m.
“Maybe it’s time to think about moving to a state where schools aren’t pushing a radical agenda, bad guys are put in jail, and your values are shared and respected.”
Wilbur arrived in Washington at 8 years old, went to Queen Anne High School and University of Washington, got married and raised a family here. But after the pandemic hit, he moved to Texas.
Now he’s a real estate agent and, according to his LinkedIn, a “refugee resettlement specialist.” (By refugees, he means Republicans interested in leaving the state of Washington.) He says the suburb of Dallas where he and his family moved in 2021 is not just politically different — the vibe is better.
“There’s not the hostility,” he told KUOW. “You don’t have to walk on eggshells, and there are Democrats and liberals here, but we all seem to kind of get along. The ugliness, I think, that was prominent in Seattle and Washington politics for a long time, isn’t here.”
I feel like some of you people that support Far Left ideology don't even live in Blue States.... you might notice a different vibe if you moved out west.

If a state makes a lot of money, it's going to drive up the cost of living and then the result is higher homeless rate. That is why those states are bigger on handouts than poor states are. Although the irony is that the red states take way more handouts than the blue states do.
That is why Mississippi has the lowest homeless rate. Because it is the poorest state in the US.

New Orleans (high number of black residents making up most of the victims & murderers).... they need to defund the police immediately.
Also... we need to give these people reparations. Isn't California attempting to do that?

say the idea of wealth/money and distribution is like creating a mirror, this very idea, by definition, is a curved mirror, in one which will never reflect the true identity of oneself and in fact, be extremely misleading. of course, a person who was above that standard and help contributed to the creation of the mirror would be able to sustain the effect of it slightly longer given the assumption that said person is sane, isn't mentally ill, and remained single, in comparison to the poorer people where those misleading factors would drive their eyeballs to neverland.
the question is still, why create this imperfect mirror at all. why not, instead of having an finite or infinite amount of future credit, people just remained stocked up beyond belief with leftovers. one in which, by the calculation of assets remaining in the open market, can be done already.
people aren't homeless, people are just stuck in a never ending state of 'can't compare'

Find me another Democrat that denounced woke culture.
You think if Harris won Bill Maher would be “denouncing woke culture” to this extent?
Probably not because he’s a hack just spewing shit that he feels will make him more popular in this political climate.

So the blue states are better at staying married? That is weird. I thought Christian conservatives were all about the family nucleus.

TBH I am surprised at that graphic. The entire west coast keeps the family together better than I even realized.
Plenty of ghettos in California but they have the same rate as Kansas which is just white farmers.

because everyone on the west coast is woke & blue. 100% of the population. Republicans don't exist on the west side?
Take away Blacks and add religion you get a rate that resembles what Utah has.

we're talking about black culture.
you identified wherever there are more blacks... murder rates go up.
but I'm sure defunding the police is the appropriate action to take... and legalizing shop lifting

Because he saw Joe Rogan stealing all his views saying the same shit.
But honest question? Do you actually believe people who call themselves a democrat or republican can be extremists?
You believe people who belong to the mainstream major parties and follow mainstream media driven talking points are extremists?
And the solution is for people to be more moderate?
Damn I wonder what you think of Libertarians and Socialists or any independent thinking group?

Mahar is not really like Rogan at all now. They used to be very similar, when Rogan claimed to a agnostic liberal but still kept his opinions real. But now? Rogan clearly knows his audience is 20-30 year old white dudes and he panders to them.
I do not feel like Bill Mahar panders to anyone at all. He is very left leaning but has no issues at all saying things that would piss off liberals. I think overall his opinions are much more authentic than Rogan's opinions are.

extremists? No, not really... I just think they are gullible, naive, deceived, ignorant and following the crowd.
Nobody should be voting Republican or Democrat... If people really wanted to take back power, you'd stop voting for a two-party system.
I agree with a lot of Fox News talking points during the Trump era... But did I forget Fox News was the biggest lying piece of $hit propaganda network during the Bush era? No I haven't forgotten.
Fox News will never be forgiven... and they are still apart of the propaganda machine.
I'd say the solution is to vote for anything besides Republican or Democrat... but that's never going to happen, so there is no "political solution"
I side with Republicans more because at the very least... they are aware of the deep state's existence ... sadly they just can't see Trump is apart of the deep state.
Woke Democrats on the other hand tend to go along with anything & everything the propaganda machine puts in front of them... including TDS.

The whole country arguing over the trans bathroom thing when that issue has affected like 0.0000000000001% of the country. That is Idiocracy. If that is our main concern it means we are a spoiled country.
It's also just stupid. If someone wants to molest another person in a bathroom, the "girls only" sign isn't going to hold them back :oldlol:
We are going to discuss another issue that has affected like 0.0000000000001% of the country........ that the entire democratic party was protesting:
That is what you call propaganda.
