Thread title alone and no content would already be an A+.

Fuck the left

Conservative/Right = Likes things the way they are and wants to keep things the way they are.  Generally identifies with successful people and has achieved success under current system.  Often lacks empathy for those who failed.

Liberal/Left = Dislikes things the way they are and want to change things.  Generally identifies with unsuccessful people.  May be successful in current system but empathizes with those who fail in current system.  If successful, often has guilt complex about own success.

Not really. Just recognizes that there are big imbalances in the current system and it could use systemic improvements. It's not impossible for minorities or underprivileged to make it in a Western capitalist society and most of us would never say that, despite it being the right's favorite talking point. Recognizing that you or others have had to deal with certain obstacles that shouldn't exist doesn't just boil down to guilt, no matter how easy that narrative is.

I'm a little unclear about what your trying to say.

Take advantage of public education.  At a minimum learn to read, do arithmetic, graduate high school.

Get a job, do it well, show up, make a living.  Save money, invest, etc.

If you are exceptional you may go farther.

People who think they deserve anything more than that are unrealistic.

If the best job you can find is laboring, then do it well.

The last time I said the title out loud was when plans for a Chick-Fil-A inside Buffalo/Niagara Airport were scrapped because some panty-waist queen got upset. It would’ve been a long awaited option for decent food for a relatively small airport, but nooooo lets cater to the 1% fruitcakes who are offended by everything. If you don’t like it, chose a different restaurant. That’s what a free market is, right?

And for the most part, the beginning of your post is what most people do, regardless or race,gender or economic background.

However, once you get into the micros of how these things works, there's a lot of variation that really doesn't have anything to do with how smart you are and how hard you work.

One example that was actually discussed on here not that long ago (actually maybe it was about a year ago)- homeownership and how it plays into intergenerational wealth.  No one brought it around to race, like most threads on here, so people weren't parsing everything to fit an agenda. People were discussing how they knew people who got inheritances of $500k+ in their 50s even though they'd been struggling for most of their adult life. And I know some people who've had similar  breaks.  

There's a lot of other little things that just show up in day-to-day life, and I'm sure for most it's just sounds like "tough titties. everybody's got some shit to get over".

Great post! Very truthful.

Of course.  It's called networking, human relationship skills, connections, etc.  Those skills are the crucial ones that get you into management positions, and not everybody has those skills.  Some people are leaders, most aren't.  If your father owns the company you have a leg up.

But even without those skills of connections you just get a job and do it.  Show up on time.  Do the job right.  Dig the ditch, shovel the sh*t.

You'll get paid.

Everybody isn't going to be the CEO.   It doesn't matter if you're white or black.  That's life.

People come over from Asia and sleep on rice sacks and eat rice for years, save their money and start a business.  They tough it out so that their kids can go to college and become doctors.

No, these things aren't really related to what I was talking about in my last post, and especially not related to the specific example I used. I suspect you didn't actually read the post, but I don't blame you. I don't have time to be reading all the boring ass shit I reply to on this board, either.

left hand path.

They often reject societal convention and the status quo, which some suggest is in a search for spiritual freedom. As a part of this, LHP followers embrace magical techniques that would traditionally be viewed as taboo, for instance using sex magic or embracing Satanic imagery.[1]:197 As Mogg Morgan wrote, the "breaking of taboos makes magic more potent and can lead to reintegration and liberation, [for example] the eating of meat in a vegetarian community can have the same liberating effect as anal intercourse in a sexually inhibited straight society.

Lol @ Prager Cuck!

It's the kosher right attempting to repackage their brand for a younger audience, yet it mostly just appeals to the +50 year old conservatives who watch Hannity and Beck.

Firstly, most (adult) people don't want to be led any where or in any thing (nothing but blue skies between me and God). 99.99% of "leaders" are imposed/selected, not earned, which used to be the case years ago.

The only skill you need to make it up the management ladder is #1 kiss ass like it's an olympic sport and you just broke the world record three times in a row, #2 be ready to sacrifice your personal for your professional life, #3 be goal driven, open-minded and willing to learn and #4 get ready to have to put up with people's personalities.

I've led teams in the past and once my wife and I had children I basically got cornered by life: either my family or my job. I chose family. A very select few choose their jobs. There really isn't more than that. People make "leading" a special innate skill you can't teach... bullshit. All bullshit. Kiss the right ass (not everyone's, mind you) and you will be promoted... if that's what you want.

Left will step over every homeless American to give Muzzies and refugee's the keys to America.

What you call "kissing butt" is also called office politics, networking, making connections, relationship building, sucking up, etc.

Some people are really good at it.  In traditional corporate organizations this is what gets people ahead (as long as they can also do the job adequately).

Yes, as you said, some people devote all their energy to their job.  This is traditional 1950-1960s corporate America with the husband putting all his focus on his job and the stay-at-home wife raises the kids.  It still goes on in many companies and is expected for advancement to higher levels.  Total devotion to the job.

Some people are born leaders and people eagerly follow them.  Religious leaders are examples.  Other people are put in positions of authority as in business or military for various reasons.  You have to do what they tell you or you get fired or disciplined.

Some people are not followers.

Kiss asses and suck ups don't make good leaders. The ones that get ahead through office politics often look to promote those whose qualities  remind them of their own sucking up.  I despise those who aspire to make friendships with the agenda of what they can get out of it.

You can see the lack of character in people who seek out those that can help them with their phony agenda driven friendships while they discard those who can do nothing for them. Character is revealed in how you treat those that can do nothing for you. I will never follow in the work place or out of the work place the model of networking which is millennial buzz word for agenda driven friendships. Let's see who laughs the loudest at the boss's joke.

Unfortunately this crap is commonplace and has always been and always will be when dealing with human beings.

You see it in government and organization leaders who only want "yes" men around them.  They can't tolerate opinions that differ from their own.

If you present an alternate viewpoint you are out.

Trump himself cannot tolerate other viewpoints from his staff.  This behavior crosses all political lines.

"Go along to get along" is a common term.

You gotta kiss a little ass to get a head in this world. It doesn't mean if you kiss ass, but have zero skills, that you will get promoted.

But very good skills, with a dose of schmoozing, will get you further than doing one without the other.

It's how I became VP of Caliber Fitness Solutions The Leader in Human Evolution since 2001.
