Then again, I'm a firm believer that I'm only responsible for my own actions....not the actions of others.
Ding-ding-ding-ding.
I do not benefit, socially, from the efforts of my parents. Why should I be punished for their alleged sins?
Newt, have you since returned to the UK?
Such is the perceptive split between the collectivist and individualist.
Sure. The difference between a Constitutional Republic and a Representative Democracy is individual accountability vs collective rights.
Correct.
And while you'll see an embrace of one over their other at one point in time, it is just as easily disposed of when motive of self-interest is served.
Don't mistake advocates of collective perspectives as anything but self-interested.
On another Discord server someone asked me if I support gay marriage politically. They did not expect my answer of: "It should not be political. The government needs to step back from marriage and enact a legal terminology which speaks to the contract of two or more individuals and custody."
IE, I neither support nor am against gays getting married. It is not my concern. The government not having a say in the matter is.
They'd strip away your property, then seek the State's protection once they have it.
I bring this up because....at one point, blacks could not marry whites.
....now it's same-sex and poly couples.
Correct.
That's a rather classically liberal perspective, one we share.
Yeah. Weird how I don't fit into a box, huh?
Not at all; you're not an ideologue.
So, I went looking for Sargon's patreon. It's gone.
Then I learned he was banned.
They used the old 'Hate Speech is real, and you violated it because we say so.' strawman.
I'll admit there's a perception bias going on, but we all know what we're getting when we turn to Sargon, and that's exactly why we seek his content, to be informed on that which people dismiss because their priorities are deemed sacrosanct.
Did they even elaborate on what his violation was, within the ToS?
What content, to be precise?
Not really, from what I saw. It was, presumably, his anti-feminist content.
Considering feminism is, in fact, cancer......
Probably that.
What we see today isn't even feminism.
Feminism died after the first wave.

Feminism was never a good ideology.
This includes the 'First Wave', which is actually the second wave.
What we're dealing with now are a bunch of identitarians, collectivists, who overwhelmingly subscribe to Communist idealism.
The second wave sucked
They supported abortion
Fair enough, Brokkr.
It never should've become an ideology.
I support abortion; under the prerequisite medical circumstances. In a hospital. With a surgical team. With pre and post operation counseling.
Of course that's not politically popular for either side.
