Tim is a lefty

2018-09-25 00:07:13 UTC

Crowder can be extremely persuasive with his own use of logic.

2018-09-25 00:07:17 UTC

In the 8 Values thing I'm a patriotic Centrist

2018-09-25 00:07:25 UTC

rest is +/- 5%

2018-09-25 00:07:48 UTC

patriotic centrist?

"Only people who love our country get to fight our government!"

2018-09-25 00:07:58 UTC

Proselytizing our side is what we need.

2018-09-25 00:08:12 UTC

I think that's also how I feel

2018-09-25 00:09:01 UTC

Cernovich's adoption of lefty tactics is useful in the same way espionage is useful.

2018-09-25 00:09:15 UTC

An army of spies doesn't get you far.

2018-09-25 00:09:31 UTC

Unless you've got a proper front.

2018-09-25 00:11:26 UTC

Tbh I see no issue with asking that the left follow the rules they set for others

2018-09-25 00:11:38 UTC

But you have to make sure you're not just reinforcing their rules

2018-09-25 00:11:48 UTC

This.

2018-09-25 00:11:51 UTC

Cernovich is a self-promoting PUA, I don't care what he does

2018-09-25 00:11:56 UTC

that is called holding them accountable

2018-09-25 00:12:05 UTC

the problem is not letting them weasel away

2018-09-25 00:12:10 UTC

If we're only making the left follow their own rules

2018-09-25 00:12:47 UTC

Then we'll be held to them too

2018-09-25 00:12:55 UTC

If Cernovich does something that hurts limousine liberals or cuckservatives I'll be happy about it.

2018-09-25 00:13:08 UTC

That's why we need our own front covering our own principles

2018-09-25 00:13:59 UTC

Cerno makes it clear why it's fucked up, we convey the alternative with consistency

2018-09-25 00:14:50 UTC

well yes, you need to stick to your principles, and if one of those principles is being held accountable to your own principles, then you can start holding the left to their own principles while still claiming to follow yours.

2018-09-25 00:16:03 UTC

To have a gentlemen's agreement you need two gentlemen.

2018-09-25 00:16:19 UTC

"I believe in your right to say what you want, and i hold myself to that, but if you believe you shouldn't be allowed to say the things you are saying, then you should hold yourself to that standard and censor yourself. I will continue to defend your right to say what you want"

2018-09-25 00:16:42 UTC

My core principle.

2018-09-25 00:17:01 UTC

Don't advocate solutions I would not want to be held to.

2018-09-25 00:18:13 UTC

treat others the way you want to be treated. don't order those under your command to do anything you would not do, etc

2018-09-25 00:20:11 UTC

"If I were a white male I would want others to tell me how awful my privilege is, and to correct the historical injustices done by my kind by redistributing my wealth and power to the oppressed"

2018-09-25 00:20:55 UTC

Mine needs better wording for conveyance

2018-09-25 00:21:16 UTC

But I generally use it for general circumstances.

2018-09-25 00:21:23 UTC

It's not the wording, it's the metaphysics

2018-09-25 00:21:47 UTC

I don't advocate targeting based on race or religion

2018-09-25 00:21:49 UTC

You have an entirely different and incompatible set of first principles.

2018-09-25 00:22:05 UTC

Lest my race or religion be targeted.

2018-09-25 00:22:13 UTC

Therefore no matter how you formulate your ideas they will be ineffective against progressives.

2018-09-25 00:22:25 UTC

Yeah

2018-09-25 00:22:37 UTC

Progressives control academia, academia controls language

2018-09-25 00:22:53 UTC

There's the first problem

2018-09-25 00:23:07 UTC

Quit letting people take language away

2018-09-25 00:24:03 UTC

Most of the cancerous ideologies come about because someone changed a definition of a word or two.

2018-09-25 00:24:45 UTC

academia controls language HA

2018-09-25 00:24:49 UTC

Hell, the negative connotations behind 'liberal' come from people who shunt liberty taking it for their own.

2018-09-25 00:24:51 UTC

you have never met a southerner apparently

2018-09-25 00:29:57 UTC

lol

2018-09-25 00:31:10 UTC

But it holds true for some of the routines like "racism = power + prejudice" "uhh no racism is just prejudice", they tend to win battles like that

2018-09-25 00:31:43 UTC

"undocumented migrant"

2018-09-25 00:31:53 UTC

"assault weapon"

2018-09-25 00:31:59 UTC

"hate speech"

2018-09-25 00:32:18 UTC

a new one that you'll hear soon is "robust expression"

2018-09-25 00:32:31 UTC

I'm gonna look up robust expression and be prepared

2018-09-25 00:32:34 UTC

it'll be used in place of "free speech"

2018-09-25 00:33:14 UTC

the idea being that even though some speech is banned, what you have left can still be used for "robust expression"

2018-09-25 00:36:10 UTC

I know its a joke, but that stuff is straight out of 1984 "Newspeak" stuff. Its really hard not to see them using 1984 as a manual.

2018-09-25 00:37:15 UTC

Here's the kicker, though...

2018-09-25 00:37:46 UTC

The ones opposing Trump think they're the protagonists in 1984

2018-09-25 00:38:32 UTC

they don't win these battles because the control academia. Its because they scream the loudest

2018-09-25 00:39:12 UTC

and the opposition has for too long just ignored them. opting for the "ignore and sometimes say sure" to shut them the hell up

2018-09-25 00:39:17 UTC

Hillary Clinton wrote in her book she thought the lesson of 1984 was that people didn't listen enough to leaders, the press and experts.

2018-09-25 00:39:39 UTC

how tf did they take that away?

2018-09-25 00:40:08 UTC

Maybe to them Winston was the villain of that book.

2018-09-25 00:40:37 UTC

that is disturbing given that this is the part who claims to be for gay rights

2018-09-25 00:40:44 UTC

or ironically

2018-09-25 00:41:05 UTC

but hey, when society raises a whole generation of adult children, what do you expect

2018-09-25 00:41:13 UTC

I had one guy the other day say that Ted Cruz sounds like the pigs from Animal Farm.

2018-09-25 00:41:19 UTC

"tell me what to do daddy government, i never learned to think for myself or defend myself. you need to defend me"

2018-09-25 00:41:20 UTC

@Grenade123 a big part of it is academia though. not anything of academic merit but the fact that they can basically recruit and indoctrinate people from junior high onwards.

2018-09-25 00:41:32 UTC

In the end Winston becomes an NPC too

2018-09-25 00:41:45 UTC

they screamed the loudest and were given some shit to shut up

2018-09-25 00:42:09 UTC

like a bad parent giving a spoiled brat candy to shut up

2018-09-25 00:42:41 UTC

You can scream louder when academia gives you a platform and Antifa doesn't blockade your events.

2018-09-25 00:43:10 UTC

and then guide them through their entire careers. it's a pipeline. they pick out promising candidates in high school, give them scholarships and mentorship programs, surround them with like-minded people in university (with tons of extra-curricular activist activities), and fast-track them through certain useful degrees like teaching and law.

2018-09-25 00:43:16 UTC

not when your platform goes bankrupt and closes

2018-09-25 00:43:47 UTC

the left are in the process of destroying all institutions they take power in, while alternatives are popping up.

2018-09-25 00:43:58 UTC

I looked at some of the membership of BAMN and many of their highly placed people were chosen when they were 15-16, and guided all the way to a placement in a law firm.

2018-09-25 00:44:13 UTC

Something happened where the left stopped policing their own. President Kennedy was very anti-communist, they used to know when they were going to far. The right still polices their extremes the left do not. I blame those who should be policing their side (or at least leaving it).

2018-09-25 00:44:23 UTC

look at comicsgate, main stream comics are dying while alternatives are rocketing upwards and making bank while delivering good product

2018-09-25 00:44:42 UTC

Kennedy was the left policing its own. LBJ helped set his death up

2018-09-25 00:44:52 UTC

Iron Sights is shipping physical copies already.

2018-09-25 00:44:55 UTC

I am very into the comics stuff. First time in a long time I bought comics.

2018-09-25 00:46:16 UTC

The shift in the left began when the radicals of the late 60s graduated and worked their way into positions of power. they recruited and trained a second wave, and that's what we're dealing with now.

2018-09-25 00:47:34 UTC

Have you ever read some of the old stuff of the media and academic apologizing for the ussr its so gross. many of them knew how bad it actually was too.

2018-09-25 00:47:58 UTC

the proteges of the 60s radicals have been placed or have insinuated themselves into positions of power but all they know is the philosophy of divide and conquer. they have no ideas of their own. they are effectively parasites killing their host.

2018-09-25 00:48:25 UTC

what old stuff?

2018-09-25 00:48:43 UTC

The NYT recently (the last few years) ran some articles about how good things were under stalin and mao. I couldn't believe it.

2018-09-25 00:48:48 UTC

that LGBT student society apologizing for gulags?

2018-09-25 00:49:11 UTC

saying that they were humane and just and that everyone there was basically receiving therapy.

2018-09-25 00:49:16 UTC

the what?

2018-09-25 00:49:21 UTC

the new stuff they titles red century [NYT]

2018-09-25 00:50:01 UTC

are you kidding me?

2018-09-25 00:50:52 UTC

even neo nazi don't pretend the death camps were a good thing, they try to deny they happened.

2018-09-25 00:51:06 UTC

"Paradoxically the thread was written as an apparent justification for an earlier post by the same group which threatened to send a political opponent โ€œto the gulagโ€."

2018-09-25 00:53:15 UTC

The fundamental problem here is that post-modernism requires that all people share the same socially constructed reality. People who dissent and insist upon a different reality are invalidating the existence of those who uphold the accepted reality.

2018-09-25 00:53:33 UTC

that's not very smart

2018-09-25 00:53:42 UTC

So dissenters must be either fixed or killed.

2018-09-25 00:53:55 UTC

You must learn to love the party.

2018-09-25 00:54:10 UTC

Straight out of Orwell.

2018-09-25 00:54:26 UTC

yeah...i know how that worked

2018-09-25 00:54:39 UTC

and it was a reality for some people 29 years ago

2018-09-25 00:55:46 UTC

Think of lucid dreaming. If you know you're dreaming and you're dreaming long enough to get the hang of it you can do anything you want. Anything. Reality bends to your whim. It's pretty fucking awesome.

2018-09-25 00:56:24 UTC

@Bo_Co By the way, to your earlier questions about denials, Walter Duranty covered the USSR for the new york times and won a pulitzer. The NYT eventually had to apologize for that.

2018-09-25 00:56:33 UTC

Now imagine if there was another conscious mind sharing that reality who could also bend anything within it to his whim. Including you.

2018-09-25 00:57:04 UTC

How are you going to treat him? Friend? Indifference? Enemy?

2018-09-25 00:57:18 UTC

He's the only thing in the universe other than you that can harm you.

2018-09-25 00:57:43 UTC

Out of simple self-preservation you must either dominate him or destroy him.

2018-09-25 00:58:01 UTC

That's post-modernism.

2018-09-25 00:58:49 UTC

>not joining up to double-bully your enemies

2018-09-25 00:59:13 UTC

Sure, for a time. But in the end there can be only one will.

2018-09-25 01:01:02 UTC

>I have a gun
>you have a gun
>surely one of us must kill the other
I dont really buy that tbh

2018-09-25 01:01:45 UTC

That's not a good analogy.

2018-09-25 01:03:09 UTC

Let's say I'm Ben Shapiro and I say there are only two genders.

2018-09-25 01:03:23 UTC

In what sense? That it doesn't map to a scenario that has no actual logical structure?

2018-09-25 01:03:54 UTC

And you're some special snowflake who thinks they're a third (or fourth, or fifty-seventh gender).

2018-09-25 01:04:33 UTC

If both of our believes actually alter reality, we can't exist simultaneously.

2018-09-25 01:04:57 UTC

Either our beliefs have to change or we have to change.

2018-09-25 01:05:20 UTC

Either Ben has to start believing in the 57 genders, or the snowflake conforms to one of the two genders.

2018-09-25 01:05:30 UTC

Please explain this guys https://youtu.be/N3irid2qUVk

2018-09-25 01:05:45 UTC

Your analogy fails because my having a gun doesn't mean you don't have a gun.

2018-09-25 01:07:25 UTC

They actually can, because the two sides aren't using the same concept

2018-09-25 01:07:53 UTC

Remember now, we're not just talking about words, we're talking about reality.

2018-09-25 01:07:56 UTC

Further, reality has no basis on belief

2018-09-25 01:08:08 UTC

Reality is altering with our belief in this scenario. Lucid dreaming.

2018-09-25 01:08:37 UTC

Yes, and you could have both the leftist concept and the righty concept exist simultaneously, because ultimately the lefty version is meaningless

2018-09-25 01:08:38 UTC

You're sticking to the modernist metaphysics. I'm using different metaphyiscs.

2018-09-25 01:08:59 UTC

You have to start thinking outside the modernist box if you want to understand these creatures.

2018-09-25 01:09:41 UTC

No, I'm saying the leftist narrative is not a necessary contradiction. If anything it's overcategorization

2018-09-25 01:10:56 UTC

You look at how these people express "genders" and you find that we already have words that describe these concepts in the vast majority of cases

2018-09-25 01:11:11 UTC

They just map to a binary system

2018-09-25 01:11:38 UTC

Whereas the narrative suggests they break the system

2018-09-25 01:11:44 UTC

Ben saying "there are only two genders" is invalidating the existence of the snowflake. It's saying 'the reality you perceive is false'.

2018-09-25 01:12:02 UTC

No it isn't, when you boil it down to the concepts being described

2018-09-25 01:12:21 UTC

Would u thonk that men who trans to women did it because they believe women have it better than men in western culture?

2018-09-25 01:12:47 UTC

Think*

2018-09-25 01:13:03 UTC

Ben is saying "there are males and females", snowflake is saying " "there are feminine men and masculine women and I'm assigning those separate categories from man and woman"

2018-09-25 01:13:19 UTC

Where each measurable point in the gradient becomes a category

2018-09-25 01:13:20 UTC

Thats dumb

2018-09-25 01:13:44 UTC

Do you know why there are more feminine men now adays

2018-09-25 01:13:48 UTC

Jesus like those people who categorize dirt

2018-09-25 01:14:06 UTC

Beemann we're going to keep talking past each other here until you learn to throw away objective reality. Post-modernists do not believe in objective reality. You're approaching this from an extremely modernist mindset and you're not getting it. If I were a post-modernist SJW I would be REEEEEEEing right now.

2018-09-25 01:14:15 UTC

Its because if a boy in school acts out like a boy they are given drugs for add or adhd

2018-09-25 01:14:52 UTC

I'm going based on what they argue lol. They're not focusing on biology, but behavioural expression and mindset

2018-09-25 01:15:10 UTC

Those drugs suppress them and have been known to cause depression down the road

2018-09-25 01:15:20 UTC

This "you just don't understaaaand man" shit is pretentious lol

2018-09-25 01:15:34 UTC

I live in lefty territory

2018-09-25 01:15:39 UTC

Same

2018-09-25 01:15:42 UTC

No, they're going on pure feeling. You are trying to categorize them based on some set of logical principles.

2018-09-25 01:16:02 UTC

Categorizing is a form of rational thought that they reject.

2018-09-25 01:16:41 UTC

Intersectionality is layered categorization

2018-09-25 01:17:04 UTC

They're identities as meeting points on a chart

2018-09-25 01:17:30 UTC

We follow the gender, race, religion, sexual orientation etc axes to their meeting point

2018-09-25 01:17:34 UTC

If you can find one of these morons that stays in their intersectional category pigeonhole for more than 6 months at a stretch I'd be surprised.

2018-09-25 01:17:45 UTC

Well the issue is that the system is convoluted

2018-09-25 01:17:51 UTC

It's impossible to follow

2018-09-25 01:17:53 UTC

You know whats funny, us men and women are tearing each other apart while communism is spreading

2018-09-25 01:18:00 UTC

There's no system here. Systemizing this will always fail. It's about pure feeling.

2018-09-25 01:18:31 UTC

Ultimately I'd say it's more accurate to suggest that they're systems *driven* by feeling

2018-09-25 01:18:36 UTC

Not only is the system convoluted but it's always shifting and changing and being redefined based on the pervading feeling of the social construct.

2018-09-25 01:18:39 UTC

Humans can't really escape heuristics

2018-09-25 01:19:00 UTC

Hence why I'm trying to tell you to abandon attempts to rationalize it. The entire movement is anti-rational.

2018-09-25 01:19:05 UTC

And they can't not categorize
It's how we retain information

2018-09-25 01:19:29 UTC

Our evolved processes aren't necessarily rational, but they can be rationally explained

2018-09-25 01:19:35 UTC

You need to learn to at least emulate the post-modernist mindset.

2018-09-25 01:19:54 UTC

And whats that

2018-09-25 01:20:00 UTC

I would strongly recommend reading or listening to Explaining Post-modernism by Stephen HIcks.

2018-09-25 01:20:22 UTC

I would reccomend u read mgtow

2018-09-25 01:20:29 UTC

Every "learn about post modernist" talk has been "shit I already know: 4h edition"

2018-09-25 01:20:39 UTC

Mgtow is a meme, and not the solution to the problem

2018-09-25 01:20:53 UTC

I would reccommend you read "Roadside Picnic"

2018-09-25 01:20:54 UTC

Im going mgtow either way

2018-09-25 01:21:01 UTC

Roadside picnic is baller

2018-09-25 01:21:15 UTC

Add Solaris to that list as well.

2018-09-25 01:21:27 UTC

Kinda topical really.

2018-09-25 01:21:43 UTC

I've been recommending Brave New World to people a lot more lately

2018-09-25 01:22:02 UTC

I find that far too many people know nothing of it

2018-09-25 01:22:17 UTC

Particularly the utilitarian types

2018-09-25 01:25:12 UTC

You know whats sad, 70% of military recruits applying are unfit for the minimum amount to pass

2018-09-25 01:25:23 UTC

Not surprised

2018-09-25 01:25:30 UTC

Our military is getting fucked too

2018-09-25 01:25:36 UTC

And u wonder why we have feminized men

2018-09-25 01:25:39 UTC

I worry about JTF2

2018-09-25 01:25:52 UTC

Whos going to fight the commies who r coming

2018-09-25 01:26:16 UTC

The women wont because traditionally they never kill women in wars

2018-09-25 01:26:23 UTC

Theyre treated as prozes

2018-09-25 01:26:26 UTC

The commies are going to be internal

2018-09-25 01:27:42 UTC

Also I sincerely doubt no Israeli Military woman has been killed. Keeping people alive in an armed conflict isn't something you can just do on a whim generally

2018-09-25 01:28:17 UTC

They dont kill women and children generally

2018-09-25 01:28:41 UTC

If the women are shooting I bet you anything they'll get killed

2018-09-25 01:28:47 UTC

Yeah

2018-09-25 01:29:06 UTC

But do u see tons of women flocking to the military

2018-09-25 01:29:16 UTC

It won't be a military issue tbh

2018-09-25 01:29:25 UTC

.-.

2018-09-25 01:29:35 UTC

I don't even think it'll be a violent conflict issue beyond the soyboy gang wars

2018-09-25 01:29:55 UTC

Who do you think is going to invade the US? Lol

2018-09-25 01:30:02 UTC

They'd get yeeted by nukes

2018-09-25 01:30:03 UTC

Who knows

2018-09-25 01:30:12 UTC

US will fall from within.

2018-09-25 01:30:17 UTC

^

2018-09-25 01:30:17 UTC

^^^^^

2018-09-25 01:30:26 UTC

That won't be a violent takeover though

2018-09-25 01:30:37 UTC

Or at least not country wide violence

2018-09-25 01:30:39 UTC

Would it though

2018-09-25 01:30:58 UTC

It would have anarchy and fear implemented

2018-09-25 01:30:58 UTC

No, they'll seize institutional power

2018-09-25 01:31:39 UTC

Hard to predict. The right is splintered pretty badly. Look at the "just build your own internet" crowd, and the jackasses clutching their pearls eager to toss Kavanaugh to the dogs.

2018-09-25 01:31:58 UTC

>twitter is the internet now

2018-09-25 01:32:00 UTC

Left might just be able to seize the country without a shot. Right might cuck out.

2018-09-25 01:32:09 UTC

Twitter is censored

2018-09-25 01:32:18 UTC

Twitter was never a good platform

2018-09-25 01:33:06 UTC

You know its bad when sjws start attacking the internet

2018-09-25 01:33:14 UTC

Ie linux

2018-09-25 01:33:18 UTC

It's like the whole point of Twitter was not to take it so seriously what with the character limit, and now everyone takes it super seriously

2018-09-25 01:33:21 UTC

You know it's funny when they get fucked every time

2018-09-25 01:34:20 UTC

My point though is that there are big ideological schisms on the right preventing unified response.

2018-09-25 01:34:24 UTC

Tbh i feel we r heading towards a future thats depicted in that one show handmaids tale

2018-09-25 01:34:46 UTC

Left can put their disagreements aside and close ranks.

2018-09-25 01:35:19 UTC

Two years on and there are still vocal never trumpers.

2018-09-25 01:35:50 UTC

Its kind of funny how past civilizations have warned us about this but we turn a blind eye

2018-09-25 01:36:02 UTC

Left doesn't close ranks though, they just purge the heretics

2018-09-25 01:36:17 UTC

U mean people they dont like

2018-09-25 01:36:20 UTC

You've actually made a mistake already. This isn't a left/right issue

2018-09-25 01:36:40 UTC

Primarily because the left and right aren't solid concepts. They're arbitrary

2018-09-25 01:36:47 UTC

Fair enough.

2018-09-25 01:37:08 UTC

What we have are a number of Marxists in key positions and corporatists thinking they're under control

2018-09-25 01:37:13 UTC

Back in the 80s and 90s I would've hated the right because of their moral puritanism and authoritarianism.

2018-09-25 01:37:20 UTC

And then you have neutrals and their opposition

2018-09-25 01:37:50 UTC

But the "moderate left" as one might describe them, includes a lot of people who are against this shit

2018-09-25 01:38:25 UTC

The moderate left is still happy to line up to vote for the kind of jackasses enabling it though.

2018-09-25 01:38:26 UTC

A lot of old school socdems honestly hate the new crowd too

2018-09-25 01:38:40 UTC

Well because you gave them Trump as an alternative

2018-09-25 01:39:10 UTC

They had Polished PR Clinton

2018-09-25 01:39:29 UTC

I don't see what's so bad about that. Build wall, put illegals on the other side of it, fix trade agreements, don't start wars.

2018-09-25 01:39:52 UTC

For your countrymen who believe in propriety and respect for the office, a thin layer of faux respectability is better than twitter meltdowns on the daily

2018-09-25 01:39:59 UTC

Which is how they see Trump

2018-09-25 01:40:48 UTC

Makes them feel good.

2018-09-25 01:40:50 UTC

We're talking about the sort of crowd that apologises for America when abroad, if they don't just wear our flag to pose as Canadians instead

2018-09-25 01:41:08 UTC

rofl Canadians get the knife too.

2018-09-25 01:41:52 UTC

Canadians rely on america, we protect them from russia

2018-09-25 01:41:59 UTC

ISIS terrorist #1: He has a Canadian flag on his luggage!
ISIS terrorist #2: We're so sorry sir. Forgive our rude behavior.

2018-09-25 01:42:13 UTC

When did I mention ISIS?

2018-09-25 01:42:18 UTC

Get out of the cornfield m8

2018-09-25 01:42:22 UTC

I'm just making a joke dude.

2018-09-25 01:43:00 UTC

My point is that there's a lot of people who hate Americans specifically

2018-09-25 01:43:08 UTC

Or are ashamed of America

2018-09-25 01:43:18 UTC

And not for "freedom" lol

2018-09-25 01:43:20 UTC

U know i never got into politics until i was redpilled about marriage :/

2018-09-25 01:43:32 UTC

Also @Deleted User Russia is a meme

2018-09-25 01:43:41 UTC

That's the marxist indoctrination speaking.

2018-09-25 01:43:57 UTC

It's not

2018-09-25 01:44:09 UTC

There are Marxists who don't like the 'States for sure

2018-09-25 01:44:34 UTC

But I bet there's a lot of people in the areas your Presidents bombed to shit that aren't big fans of y'all either
