Ugh, I hate those tests. I wish we could just click the word we take issue with

@Hearts™ i only go on reddit for the memes the politics hsit gets annoying as fuck though

yep

@Hans-Hermann Helicoppter i didn't know about it either

guys, tim is live in <#463511196860153876>

I had taken that test a while back

Ree

Plebbit

I took the 8 values test lol

imma take the 8 values test see what i am

I assume human

anyone else take it?

few days ago

Dang. Went on Facebook for the first time in a while and it's exactly like I remembered it: politics from both sides interspersed with pics of babies and kiddos

haven't used facebook since like highschool

Anyone want to play something? If not, I'm turning Uber on...

your gonna turn your uber car on?

Flip the switch on the app and start accepting fares.

Sorry, I stick to single player games

How do you do fellow plebs?

if anyone was looking for a political compass test look up politiscales

ISideWith is a great test.

the '@ every one' spam is starting to get a bit annoying.

I have here and everyone muted.

Are those spammable here? o_o

no

BTW JDM, I've got an idea.

for the Gamer role, make it at-able.

rather than playing anything risky with here or everyone.

yeah thats the way we have it set up with the other servers

There's a patreon tier above mine. I'm jealous. -_-

there's 3

patreon 1 - 6

Come on, Rye. Be the whale you want to be.

If I could afford it, I'd be in that $5,000 a month tier. Because buying friends is what rich people do.

Eh, capitalism 😛

Roll up in my yellow and black helicopter with my paid homies Sargon, M.L. Christiansen and Tim Pool

Ready to give some commies some free services

if you know what I mean

<--- Works uber, for clarification.

I figure Sargon's the easiest one to haggle down

Talked to Aussie, he left by choice.

no conspiracy theories today

Tell him I hope he gets well soon.

who sargon

> Mod uses `@everyone`
It's super annoying. <:PingAnger:420029014288236545> <:theypingmeforthis:439118907618361355>

What mod is using ``@everyone``?

I'm not seeing it

People keep complaining about it, but it's just not happening where I see it.

Might be in a muted channel?

@samgroot BTW, somewhere between the Empire State and the Garden State. all you need to know. 😛

OK, I'm new to this shit. How do I add that I am a patreon contributer?

Ping was in <#463057194456317962>

@ScottJonesy I think you have to link your Discord account on Patreon site

Imagine not muting stuff.

Ive muted most of the channels and just leave the ones i use.. Man i still can't keep up.

Boop Boop. Boop Boop. non-stop,.

@XDRosenheim cheers, appreciated. I'll have a gander

@LOLTRON you could just set your status to do not disturb... No notifications that way

That's so crazy it just might work!

Nah, i want notifications from some channels, and not others.

Wew, that's a lot of work

not too bad in this discord..

Sargons is a bit more challenging

Somehow, i've ended up with 2 sargon discords. I dont know which one is the legit one

lol

neither! Sargoyle is a myth!

Bam!

:shirt: Check out **Tim Pool's TeeSpring Merch**:

You're not the bost of me, Mee6.... <clicks link>

Oh i can't stay mad at you...

I wish teespring didnt charge me more for the shipping than it does for the shirt.

@RyeNorth if you really want to buy a friend, Vee is the best bang for your buck. For his 10$ tier reward he will defend your good name on any livestream to the death.

Just joined. Hi all.

sup

yo

Who's 'Omega', and why are you Killing him?

Haha, it was actually a reference to Omega Weapon from Final Fantasy. The username is about 20 years old. I just never changed it across most platforms.

I'm a nerd, hence the obscure NES character logo 😛

Nerd creds confirmed

😛

@LOLTRON Athens is the real sargon server

I found sargon's twitter

https://twitter.com/CarlofAkkad

Vee follows it, it's definitely him

Please no one tweet it out

we don't want twitter to know hehehe

I wonder what he other one is...

His actual one got gangraped

This is the new one I guess

Ah

cool

ditching the old one then

lmfao

thats not libertarian socialism

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't those two terms mutually exclusive?

they arent

libertarian socialism would be a community of people all agreeing to share resources

where as most socialism is authoritarian because its damn near impossible to get people to agree unanimously

libertarian socialism works when you live in a small tribe of maybe 20-30

I see.. It'd work if everyone in the group new and empathised with everyone else in the group. That wouldn't scale.

You think that looks bad

from the same people, btw

I am all for the automation of labour.

Doesn't sound like they have a plan for pulling that off, though...

You'd have to genocide some of the population to pull that off without skyrocketing unemployment

That may not be off the cards for them, i would hazard a guess..

automation debate in <#463068752725016579>

well there was one yesterday

anyway

senpai

@Timcast so a youtube comment made me realize that white SJWs are using the same logic that justified imperialism. A modern white man's burden. That it is their duty to look after people who are not white. Just like it was the duty of the western world to civilize the third world and lift them up.

white savior complex

@Timcast I have heard your opinion the the gay cake debate but i would like to know what you think of my opinion on it and whether you agree.

While denying service because someone is gay should not be accepted but not creating a gay cake should be accepted.

I come to this opinion as at the end of the day what is being denied is not service but the product and people can either take their business to another shop or just buy a cake and ad to male figures to it.

thats a good point

you cant tell them what they can put on the cake

they can make you a cake and make it however they want

I kept saying this. The baker was willing to sell them any cake in the shop but was not going to create a custom one.

Didn't kick them out for being gay.

no i mean they should make a custom one

but you cant tell them how its made

so ok ill go bake you a cake as I see fit

They should but shouldn't be forced.

It's like demanding that a painter paints something for you even if they don't want to.

Or any kind of artist.

I see a huge difference between demanding something that needs to be made and demanding something that is already made.

in short
denial of a customer is wrong
But
denial of a product is ok

If something is made you shouldn't deny it to anyone but if someone is trying to force you to make something they shouldn't be able to.

isint it kinda like telling an artist what they have to draw for you before you give them money and them not being able to deny you? its called culanry arts. its not like they are selling something made at a factory they are refusing to be your middleman to

Just tell the gays to go to a different bakery lol

It's not that complicated

but muh tribalism

problem comes when everyone denies them

But everyone isn't though

Banning gays from your establishment is basically suicide for your business

sure the gov may not being doing something with a poorly written law
but what about next week

i think people are to afraid of civil wars, the preventitive tactics of an authoritarian government does not prevent people within their society from wanting to disassociate with eachother, all it does is force people who dont want to cooperate to cooperate against their will

the edge is real

maybe over generations it can change minds, but not if their is a legitament reason for them not to want to associate with eachother

Do you guys agree

in some cases

that doesent discribe every policy of socialism but for the ones it does i agree

@Timcast Possible project? I saw this guy’s video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=px_V_oKyzU8&t=146s

And it occurred to me, that his “drive the length of the border” project might make for an interesting “in the field” piece of reporting work for you and Emily, and a good cross-channel collaboration. Since you’re politically agnostic, he might be willing to work with you, and between the two of you, the combined expertise and audience might make for a very popular and timely series on youtube.

Just a thought

Tim, I don wanna @ you this fucking early but you made a good point during the last podcast tbat if a war breaks out, geurilla fighters with simple rifles have kicked the army's ass before.

yuuup

i would though mention that china doesent have a good history with sea invasions

Sorry, in london. I forget what time it is on the other side these days...

I talked with a guy in a local bar who said he studies geopolitics and he says he has a good idea od how amerixa will fracture if this goes down

west coast states, heartland, texas, the colonies + some a little below them, and the far southeast

which thing goes down?

purely on broad-stroke cultural similarities

civil war 2: the quickening

ah

i think the civil war will be left vs the government

Civil war 2: Communist Boogaloo

not really a fracturing of the union as much as an attempted revolution

the left is basicly in a state of growing "take away right power by any means nessicary"

while the right wants to defend the political reform its managed to spark

the america civil war was a VERY specific event differnt than many civil wars of the past

you wont have a fracture of the union until someone declares a new capital

Bees

also, just to be clear, I'm just a random schmo. I wasn't trying to promote something. It really was just a thought...

what

🅱

scroll up a bit. I saw a video by another dude, who has the idea of traveling the border and interviewing people on both sides. Seemed like something tim could team up on...

Next civil war will be three sides not two. Left extremists vs. Right extremists vs. government trying to maintain monopoly on force. It'll look like cartel violence with a weak inept government trying to prevent it.

i dont think so

right now the right is with the government

yeah the right and governement really arnt at odds

the feds protected actual neo nazis on numerous occasions

and right extremists dont have much solidarity

1a guarantee

the extreme right is fractured and small

so they might be a blip

but in 5-10 years if the left gets political power its bad news

look at what crowdpac did

they banned all republicans

But if the far right starts killing people the government is going to try to stop them.

if the left could theyd make right wing politics illegal

the state of the us in 5-10 years i think is unpredictible now

The federal police forces are going to have to intervene between two civilian factions

the far right isint going to start killing people in the governement

And the government will be weakened because there will be leakers, insiders, defectors, etc working surreptitiously for either side.

they have no reason to, as far as they are conserned things are going their way and theyre only complaint is that its not going fast enough

No, the far right and the far left are going to kill each other and the goverment will be caught in the middle trying to stop the violence.

you mean the police

Suddenly, zombie apocalypse

the far left havent actually been getting into conflict much with the far right

except yannow every protest ever

i want and encourage a zombie apocalypse

Oh god no

the protests dont really have much far right

Zombi apocalypse in actuality would be horrible

patriot prayer isint far right

The far left will start the violence. They're losing their grasp on objective reality and eventually the looniest among them will start assassinating people.

zombies wouldbe horrible to normies

Especially if it's the only headshots count zombies

theyd die instantly

Then the far right will respond, and it'll escalate.

Tim, the normies will *be* the zombies

if the far left starts assassinating people the far right wont do anything

And they are the majority

they wont need to

We will be killed

The police/FBI/homeland security trying to stop it will be caught in the middle, and will be wracked with defectors.

this is reminding me of World War Z (the book, not the horrible movie)

your talking about military rule at that point

Oh hell yeah

it's one of my favourite books

But atleast in WWZ, they had super lasers

this government will come down with an iron fist if the far left starts taking politicians out

the far right will respect that

Doesn't have to be politicians.

🅱

they arnt going to target anyone else

The Rufio guy who punched out that Antifa guy got doxxed. What if, for example, someone just shoots him?

they wont, the far left has bigger problems

they are losing the government in a big biiiig way

Doesn't have to be an organized thing. Just a lone nutter.

perhaps the greatist upset in us history

Yeah, and losing so bad is making people lose their minds. They're going to get desperate. backed into a corner.

Can you imagine if Ginsberg dies?

She could just not wake up one morning. She's what, 81? Pancreatic cancer survivor?

i wouldent call street violence assassination though

i think you could see people dying in riots soon

Assassination is targeted killing with political motivation.

Anyway, shit's bad.

i think what youll see is ambigious killing with political motivation

The left is going to go cuckoo bananas before the summer is over. Absolutely barking at the moon insane.

and yes it is bad but at some point it will simply justify martial law and then the game is over

No, it won't be. What that'll prove to them is that OMG DRUMPFH REALLY IS HITLER!!1

Well does the left really have a stance or are they flip floppig around before the midterms?

i dont think you have any idea what it means if the united states falls under martal law

Trump is already in a position where he can't enforce the actual written law of the land.

so if they give him that position

I know what it means, but I don't think you do. The US doesn't have 1% of the troops it needs for martial law.

it doesent need as much as you think then

How many troops do you think it would take to occupy New York or San Fran?

im not saying it is going to go around gestopo style and drag anyone who decents from the presedent out into the street and shoot them

if the left makes a war with the us goverenment though and the us government replys, half the us populaton or more will be on the governemnt side

the lack of allies the left will have if they choose to make a war on this country is all the troops we need

Wft even is cortez and the dsa

democratic socialists of america

I feel like we're watching a twilight zone

I know

they are basicly anarchocommunists who would undermine the democracy bt desolving the country if they had power

Having most of the population on our side didn't help a damn in Baghdad.

Insurgencies are a gigantic bitch to fight.

Its so bizzar seeing an elected leader call for open boarder
