    mainstreaming of VICE // VICE mainstream

    sure. but then again there is the demographic and audience issue - 20 -30 year olds are not reading Amnesty International, are they? and saying they should is about as useful as saying the world should be more equal and just.

    mainstreaming of VICE // VICE mainstream

    what DOESN'T contrute to that? That is a phenomenon, like the short itself explains, with roots a bit older, and a lot bigger, than Vice.

    mainstreaming of VICE // VICE mainstream

    that is 1 way of looking at it. do you think it is the only? Even with the mainstreaming and success, even with the imperfections and problems, i still enjoy Vice content once in a while, and DAMN glad it exists rather than not. Voice of privilege? what media, music, film, in the West...

    Aging (Gen X Midlife Crisis and Other Topics of little Consequence)

    well just like the article says, i've done and experienced a lot, but there is zero security in my life. While others are buying homes i didn't even have health insurance until this year! I've toured different continents doing what i love, but still not sure where rent money will come from...

    Aging (Gen X Midlife Crisis and Other Topics of little Consequence)

    Islamophobia

    the title is a bit misleading. But a religion which predominantly advocates peace does not necessarily mean pacifist - the 2 are not mutually exclusive. Of course Islam is inherently, on the whole, a religion of peace, as is Christianity and Judaism. the vast majority of it is rhetorics of...

    don't think the author thinks that. he's only the most visible and vocal one.

    everyone's seen this piece surely? Not in our name: Dawkins dresses up bigotry as non-belief - he cannot be left to represent atheists and this is crucial: Sam Harris and the Anti Muslim Animus
