Heard.

Also something to consider- as a place to spend a couple months and check out the sierras and big sur etc Cali is ok. But certainly no place to try to make a life.

I read some
New legislation going into effect there next month-All heterosexual married couples are required to produce one child for mandatory donation to a homosexual or transgender couple to raise so that way of life which can’t sustain itself- doesn’t die off. Then having met that obligation they are allowed to Breed for there own kids. That and you have to turn in your guns to the police and donate 1/10th of your acreage to Mexican cartels to grow on.

Now it’s important to understand that as heterosexual white male you are a huge part of if not the cause of the problem. And you can not opt out of these “solutions” because the problem is bigger than just you. It’s everybodies.

Long live USA

Ha ! I would not be surprised if this type of legislation was actually proposed or put into law in the peoples republic here. Yes. The Sierra Nevada mountains are pretty sweet and an excellent training ground for many mountain sports I may add. I am currently working on getting outta here ( taking awhile). I basically am putting together a power point presentation with pie charts etc to sell the idea to my family . A work in progress but the daily or weekly conversations I hear or am a part of in the work place or other public arenas is the twilight zone type of stuff you mention. Problem is that its real and VERY common . Oh. Let me add... I apologize to all Roksliders if during any of my posts I may have exposed you to any micro or macro aggression's. Thanks.

Now- if I understand this correctly- and I may not -but if I do...
A micro aggression is basically a situation where someone far removed from you expresses via social media etc but not directly at you an opinion or statement that you disagree with- that’s basically micro aggression right?

What is macro aggression? Is that like more directly expressing to an individual, via social media email etc an opinion or statement with which they disagree?

And then disagreeing with someone indirectly but in the same venue or physical location - ie at a rally or at an event is assault

And then assault and battery consists primarily of directly expressing disagreement face to face.

Beyond that it’s all
Pretty much rape and murder

Just a quick correction/clarification to the OP, and tied to the original topic. Mystery Ranch hunting packs are made in the Philippines. Some of the Mountain/Outdoor packs are made in Vietnam.

Not sure if that changes anything for anyone.....

My understanding is a simple word said such as "black" I.E. "I saw a black man walk through the yard " if perceived in a manner that the listener "feels" uneasy or "feels" a stress reaction when listening based on their own personal beliefs then the listener is a victim of a micro aggression . If one is to wave their hand when talking or god forbid point and the person witnessing this "feels" stress or fear then the witness to the gesture is a victim of a macro aggression. I think this is a more direct example but im no expert. Ive been outta the college scene for around 12 years and am just an outta touch man that lives in the mountains. I think the color of each party also plays a big part as far as if one has a higher rating of offense etc. Probably a graph or something out there that shows this. IE. "The white saying the word black would have a higher offense rating than a brown man using the word black etc". Unfortunately this is REAL thought process commonplace in many circles today. Grotesque .

I try to buy American when its better but i'm also not going to suffer through a hunt solely for a "made in America" tag on my pack. If you like those packs and it doesn't bother you no shame, if you want to buy American and you like those packs even better. I bought a Kuiu (I was one of those cool kids) pack last year and hated it. Next year i'll be getting a exo or stone glacier (both made in U.S.A). There's definitely some options for those who want an American made high quality pack, but I don't think anyone should get a pack they hate for that reason either. Buy what you like and if American even better!

I almost thought I was reading a joke forum or something with COMMIES in capital letters. Neither Mystery Ranch nor any other company for that matter has any obligation whatsoever to pass any savings on to consumers. In fact, I bet they charge as much as they feel the customers are willing to pay. The market sets the price, and if there is a profit margin to be made it goes to the capitalist (mystery ranch).

An elementary marxist idea is that prices are based off of the cost of labor input, not markets....so it would be immoral to charge a higher price in order to make a profit. Sounds like the OPs idea.

Joke. No. No joke to me. Your average Joe could give a shiat about your mention of "elementary marxist idea" . This is about customer loyalty to a boutique pack company known for USA manufacturing moving overseas and to add to that a COMMIE country. MR can charge more for all I care . "obligation" I spoke of no "obligation". If I was a guy who was stoked that MR moved manufacturing to Vietnam ( possibly a Vietnamese national or one who is just pumped on Vietnam for some reason ?) I would pay more for their product even though I know it costs MR less to make their product. Hardly a "elementary marxist idea". MR having a price point that competes with USA made products ( similar to their previous USA made stuff )pricing bugs me. Its more about national pride than cost . I am an American who chooses to support whatever company I see fit which just happens to no longer be MR. Your missing the point which doesnt surprise me. Honestly. Are you a socialist or one who feels they identify with it ? In the state of CA were I reside Socialism has become "cool" and your rhetoric sounds familiar.
Could you show us on the doll where MR has hurt you?
