MAGAThread XVIII: The Authority Is Total

[San Lumen]

And a school like Dartmouth sees a huge drop in admission because their aren't enough jobs for every student?

I doubt most Dartmouth students are working jobs on the side and struggling to get by.

And how do you expect every student attending Dartmouth or UMass Amherst to get a job in town? There simply arent enough jobs for every student

If you have to work while going to school, you have to factor that into the price of education. If you can't make it work, and thus you probably can't afford those schools. May I suggest you look at Salem State instead?

And what type of job are we talking about?

How do you know that?

Most colleges require loans to attend. It isn't practical or realistic for someone to work full time and attend school.

Because the demographics of the school are public information and most kids there come from upper middle class families?

It is, you just won't have the traditional college experience of dorm parties and day drinking.

Well this is terrible.

Native American burial sites in Arizona have been blown up by construction crews building the US-Mexico border wall, according to lawmakers and tribal leaders.

Authorities confirmed that "controlled blasting" has begun in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, a Unesco recognised natural reserve.

Destroying cultural sites in the name of a massive money sink that will not be affective.

Just horrible.

[Valrifell]

a total non answer.

No. It's not. We're talking about college being affordable, and you start talking about fucking Ivy League schools. Obviously those are retardedly expensive. That's the point. So the upper class can keep away from us proles.

And you want to make more places where the upper class can self-segregate from the proles?

[Fartsniffage]

and you think most people can afford it without loans or just pay their way through it with a part time job?

Get a full time job and do it. Even working 40 hours a week you still have 72 hours a week to devote to courses.

If you make 9 dollars an hour, you'll make more than enough to afford college assuming economical living situations.

It depends on the course as well. When I was studying aerospace engineering the class time was 40 hours per week with as much again in library work.

Once you factor in eating, sleeping, showering, cleaning, laundry and the sheer crappy times when you're available for work you'll be lucky to find 5 or 10 hours a week.

Given that I did so.... I would say it's plenty practical.

"Native American burial sites" have a long history of being used for dubious land claims.

You say these are cultural sites but had you even heard of this place before you stumbled across this article?

Your set of circumstances may not be typical. That is also to say, not everyone is or is like you.

It's like survivorship bias. That you survived is not evidence that your process is viable for everyone.

You're so right. Cultural sites aren't valid unless random internet people who live far from the area and have no connection to the culture related to the site have heard of them.

/s, obviously.

Herp is not a Native American so I struggle to imagine why he would have an encyclopedic knowledge of their cultural sites. Do you know every Shinto temple in Japan?

Why does that matter if I heard about this place before the article?

I don't know every place on earth. Yet if I hear an event happening in some place I never heard of and the sourse is trustworthy, I can assume that the place is real.

/s, obviously.

The "Indian burial ground" con has almost become a trope. They find an arrowhead in some dirt and then suddenly declare the entire area some sacred burial ground and make it off-limits to everyone. It's very similar to how Jewish settlers in Palestine keep finding historical "artifacts" on Palestinian land that they then use to claim ownership over it.

But surely you can make enough money to pay your way through school without loans

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Claims of a conspiracy require proof and shouldn't be taken at face value. Fuggin prove it.

Who cares if one heard of it? Its a travesty to destroy cultural sites for a stupid wall.

That has nothing to do with this well documented place.

The whole idea of going to college without loans is silly in and of itself, because there are loans, so even if you can't work, you can get student loans to fund college without having independent wealth.

The number of workers who "should refuse to work" is almost the same as the total number of workers in this world.
