It's a little unfair to ignore his upbringing. Dude started at the absolute bottom. Please explain where along the way he should've received an education in critical thinking. Half of the nation doesn't have one.

A man is not the product of his circumstances, but of his decisions

Wouldn’t that be nice.

Understanding someone’s background doesn’t erase responsibility. He still has agency as an adult

Definitely a polarizing quote, though

[MikeCyclopsfromNASA]

I’m so confused whenever Joslin is mentioned on the site now. I remember the antivax story he made in like 2020, what else is there besides him being cringey? In his tre flip thread, people were calling him MAGA and it seemed like it was all based off his appearance? I don’t pay attention to him, but there would be a Slap thread if he said or did anything fucked (like the antivax story), so I’m lost. 

He’s an idiot if he’s still antivax, but I’m not sure where this Joslin hatred came from in the last six months or so.

Where exactly did I demand something of him? Stating the facts. You actually just backed them up.

Click at your discretion. Interesting marketing tactic from skateboarding's most innovative brand. Then again, it got people talking so I'm sure it'll move some units...

Ugh, worst slam I've ever seen.

This should be shared amongst the skate community: "If you suspect a back or neck (spinal) injury, do not move the affected person. Permanent paralysis and other serious complications can result." https://www.mayoclinic.org/first-aid/first-aid-spinal-injury/basics/art-20056677

I was shocked when the dude just immediately flipped Nyjah over after he fell 10 feet into his head. Can’t believe you’re the only person who I’ve seen comment on this.

Imagine if they did the plan b joslin el toro type graphic. Where it’s jah at the bottom of the set knocked out on the sidewalk

That’s what I was expecting to see honestly

[close]

[close]

I was thinking more along the lines of this one

[close]

holy hell those graphics are bad, how long is joslin gonna milk this whole "g-ma" thing? looks like if jah takes another slam he's cooked

I dunno man that seems a bit unfair to say he’s ‘milking’ the G MA thing - clearly his grandmother was a huge part of his life, sounds like his parents were meth heads/he had a tough upbringing, so maybe he really misses someone positive and who are we to demand he stops spraying it on his grip/paying homage

He may be a bit dimwitted but if the memory of his beloved gma spurs him on then go ahead

Aside from maybe cooking a piece of meat on an overheated and struggling combustion engine, I think broadcasting an imagine of the fucked up bones inside your body is just about as hellride as it gets.

Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s common knowledge to not touch an unconscious person. I didn’t learn until my early twenties. My stepdad came to the park to check it out, it was literally his first time at a skatepark and a kid immediately got smoked in the deep end of the bowl. Out cold, and he was wearing a helmet too. His little friends came down to the flat to help him and my stepdad yelled “IS HE OUT? DON’T TOUCH HIM IF HE’S OUT!”

It’s just instinctual to put someone right side up or to try and revive them. Remember when Shaun White got knocked out and Bob immediately ran over and cradled his limp body? Bob expressed regret afterwards, but admitted he just panicked.

The definition of critical thinking is rejecting mainstream belief and coming to your own conclusion. Seems Joslin has more critical thought than any other pro. Also seems to be taking better care of his body than anybody in the game and raising a family. A true champ

Counter narrative from Instagram:

“this belief has actually begun to phase out of first aid medical training.
the data clearly shows that the chance of dying from a blocked airway from something like this is
MUCH higher than the chance of further injuring a patient with a spinal injury.
everyday of the week i'm doing what old mate did. putting him on his back which further straitened the spine, then tilting head back and opening up the jaw to make sure bro can breath!”

Just throwing it out there, I’ve alway heard what people are saying in this thread but this seems believable.

I was about to post that these don't touch instructions need a BIG caveat that the person needs to be breathing. If they're not you most definitely should turn them over and start CPR!!

When I was a kid my grandpa fell and broke his neck at his house. He was laying face down and my uncle turned him over as he didn’t seem to be breathing. The doctor who later treated him said my uncle saved his life by doing so. It all depends on the situation. I used to have to go through emergency medical training every couple of years at my job and some of the “dos and donts”  frequently changed every time I’d come back.

What you're describing is contrarianism.

Critical thinking is analyzing information and coming to your own conclusion about it, whether your beliefs end up being mainstream or not is irrelevant.

I know you've already been getting dogpiled for this but jesus christ dude what the fuck

[argggghhhhhhh]

on the subject of "do your own research", most research done on the internet is misleading. Your internet history is used to inform search results and suggestions, meaning that researching things on the internet generally leads to confirmation bias, because the algorithm wants to give you results that confirm your beliefs and keep you on the internet to generate add revenue, clicks, etc. Many people who do their own research through the internet are misled because of these factors,  which cause more information dissonance and division as a result.

I'm sure most of you know this already but i felt like it had to be said. Pick up a book, and do your own research by going outside and talking to real people with real expertise in their fields.

I also don't think you can call someone misled by the internet evil or irredeemable. These traps are easy to fall into and we have to give each other grace if we want to move forward as a society.

This being said bad actors do exist and should be called out, but I don't think it's productive to assume that everyone who falls into disinformation is a bad actor or has bad intentions.
