       No wonder it got heated. From the first 20 minutes sounded like
       u called someone dickbrain and said Adam and Eve live in San
       Francisco, then exited leaving them with a screen capture to
       debate it with. But really, from what was audible after that, I
       agree with your position. They seem like fools or tools. The guy
       on the far right not only on this issue either

       I went over to see what UGO was up to.  He republished an old
       article that had been very successful.  I went to the old
       article and found: [quote]Reverse Engineer September 14, 2013 at

       I think when talking about Cycles vs One-Shots, people tend to
       try to make the facts fit what they believe, rather than make
       what they believe fit the facts.
       In the case of the Earth and multiple cycles, a philosophy
       developed that because there have been multiple cycles before
       this, there will be multiple cycles afterwards also. A Historian
       like JMG looks at historical cycles of Civilizations, and then
       projects there will be many more similar cycles.
       This doesn't take into account the increasing complexity of the
       cycles, the increased use of Energy through the cycles and the
       changing Energy output of the Sun as time goes by here.
       The geological conditions which got us to where we are today are
       unlikely to repeat. Beyond that, in the 500M years or so of
       multicellular life on the planet, only one Sentient species ever
       evolved. So it is a pretty big stretch to imagine that 2 more
       will evolve after this in maybe 200M more years where such life
       is even possible at all on the planet.
       This doesn't mean there are not Universal Cycles of recreation,
       there may well be but not here on Earth in the time left, at
       least it is highly unlikely.
       About the only thing you can say for sure is that regardless of
       whether we burned all that oil, we would eventually go extinct
       anyhow. We may have accelerated the process some here, as I said
       over on George's blog, its like Smoking for a person. Quitting
       might help you live a little longer, but you still would end up
       dead in the end. The only CHANCE was to get off the Earth in
       some sort of Interstellar Starship, and we shot the wad trying
       to come up with Energy Technology that would make such a thing
       possible. That Holy Grail was Fusion Power. We never got it, and
       as things spin down here, it is unlikely we ever will now.
       So now it is not a matter of IF we will go extinct, just WHEN.

       So is Cenk Ugur not a serious leftist because when one Democrat
       candidate dropped out of primary race and put his support behind
       the successful one, Cenk supported the party candidate as
       well...or did he support Hillary over Bernie from the beginning?
       I can't be the only one to see the irony of saying he's not a
       serious news source while the whole time displaying his favoured
       news person, Kasparian flipping the bird behind him.
       The 15 yr old clip where Britney Spears did a gash flash getting
       out of a limo. That was when her music was over and she got a
       few more minutes of fame, there were a few others who did it as
       well.  Cenk said he doesn't care about the flashing but
       criticised her weight. Everyone in the media was criticizing her
       weight then with some comeback performance at Grammys or Oscars
       (forgetting she was no longer a teenager and had 2 children),
       South Park even did an episode on it. Cenk is a clown for sure
       but he wasn't alone in sending Britney Spears insane.
       I don't always know what Marcus is talking about, or that
       everyone would agree he is right. It would help to introduce the
       topic. I had to look up Jimmy Dore and where he says Kasparian
       is blackmailing him.  It is not as he thought, bringing up what
       he said about showing him and the audience her ass being wrong,
       rather than her doing it being wrong, but a message threatening
       to me too him for other things in private.
       He says his apology was a card he sent at the time, him now
       telling what it's all about looked awkward, expectedly, but
       isn't meant to be another apology.
       
       Marcus mentions Assange, Russiagate and a number of other issues
       with TYT being wrong, but does not say what their position was
       so I don't know where they stood on any of those. I have no idea
       if Marcus is a true progressive and thinks Russia hacked the
       2016 election or whether he is right wing and soft on russia,
       another Putin stooge as the saying goes. He agreed with the take
       that any defence of Dore does make you right wing with the clip
       under the heading "so I'm right wing now?"
       It seems now you can't be a progressive and believe if you have
       Monica Lewdinsky in the oval orifice, Hillary Clinton could have
       concern or complain. Try putting this to the test and hiring an
       18 year old assistant or maid who wears skimpy clothing and  see
       if the other women in the office or house still think not making
       her uncomfortable is paramount.
       I remember one time way back in 2000 when a Barbie doll like
       creature came and gave a presentation on something I forget now.
       In the lunch room all the women couldn't shut up about her. I
       got so fed up I said 'come on give her a break, you all could
       probably stop traffic too in your day'. They all erupted
       laughing, but their instinctive initial reaction probably comes
       from being threatened by her like Sarah was by Hagar in the Old
       Testament. All that in group preference of the sisterhood
       covering for each other, which I've seen plenty of too (this
       same group were all gushing over wedding arrangements for one of
       them while she was having an affair with one of the married guys
       in our department, and they all knew). All that evaporates when
       a new nubile might bear another heir, like Ishmael that
       threatened to subtract from Isaacs inheritance. The claws come
       out and they're sent into the desert.
       At 36.30 you have your own incident like Jimmy Dore and the said
       Steph. Kasparian is only a white woman that Dore embarrassed and
       someone called Steph laughed at. Marcus saying that companies
       advertising LGBTQ is bullshit and you laughing is a more serious
       crime than theirs in intersectionality. If chenk or dore said
       that today, not ten and fifteen years ago before gender
       dysphoria became ideal and nudity became modesty, they would be
       traded to fox news tomorrow.

       For a damsel in distress, she can work it.  This is the kind of
       woman who believes nasty rumors.  They feed on drama.  Best
       avoided.  But then again, the hot blood could be stimulating.
       She would wear a short skirt just to catch you looking so she
       could call you a pig.  That works for some people.
