I do not benefit, socially, from the efforts of my parents. Why should I be punished for their alleged sins?

2019-09-21 23:35:50 UTC  

Newt, have you since returned to the UK?

2019-09-21 23:36:00 UTC  

Such is the perceptive split between the collectivist and individualist.

2019-09-21 23:36:55 UTC  

Sure. The difference between a Constitutional Republic and a Representative Democracy is individual accountability vs collective rights.

2019-09-21 23:37:14 UTC  

Correct.

2019-09-21 23:38:25 UTC  

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.

2019-09-21 23:39:10 UTC  

Don't mistake advocates of collective perspectives as anything but self-interested.

2019-09-21 23:39:21 UTC  

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."

2019-09-21 23:39:49 UTC  

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.

2019-09-21 23:40:04 UTC  

They'd strip away your property, then seek the State's protection once they have it.

2019-09-21 23:40:19 UTC  

I bring this up because....at one point, blacks could not marry whites.

2019-09-21 23:40:35 UTC  

....now it's same-sex and poly couples.

2019-09-21 23:40:51 UTC  

Correct.

2019-09-21 23:41:14 UTC  

That's a rather classically liberal perspective, one we share.

2019-09-21 23:41:52 UTC  

Yeah. Weird how I don't fit into a box, huh?

2019-09-21 23:42:22 UTC  

Not at all; you're not an ideologue.

2019-09-21 23:43:15 UTC  

So, I went looking for Sargon's patreon. It's gone.

2019-09-21 23:43:49 UTC  

Then I learned he was banned.

2019-09-21 23:43:55 UTC  

....and I was not surprised.

2019-09-21 23:44:41 UTC  

They used the old 'Hate Speech is real, and you violated it because we say so.' strawman.

2019-09-21 23:47:15 UTC  

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.

2019-09-21 23:48:21 UTC  

Did they even elaborate on what his violation was, within the ToS?

2019-09-21 23:48:28 UTC  

What content, to be precise?

2019-09-21 23:48:48 UTC  

Not really, from what I saw. It was, presumably, his anti-feminist content.

2019-09-21 23:49:03 UTC  

Considering feminism is, in fact, cancer......

2019-09-21 23:49:13 UTC  

Probably that.

2019-09-21 23:49:23 UTC  

What we see today isn't even feminism.

2019-09-21 23:49:28 UTC  

Feminism died after the first wave.

2019-09-21 23:49:33 UTC  

<:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

2019-09-21 23:49:43 UTC  

Feminism was never a good ideology.

2019-09-21 23:50:00 UTC  

This includes the 'First Wave', which is actually the second wave.

2019-09-21 23:50:20 UTC  

What we're dealing with now are a bunch of identitarians, collectivists, who overwhelmingly subscribe to Communist idealism.

2019-09-21 23:50:24 UTC  

The second wave sucked

2019-09-21 23:50:32 UTC  

They supported abortion

2019-09-21 23:50:49 UTC  

Fair enough, Brokkr.

2019-09-21 23:50:55 UTC  

It never should've become an ideology.

2019-09-21 23:51:14 UTC  

Indeed, @SC01.

2019-09-21 23:51:26 UTC  

I support abortion; under the prerequisite medical circumstances. In a hospital. With a surgical team. With pre and post operation counseling.

2019-09-21 23:51:45 UTC  

Of course that's not politically popular for either side.

2019-09-21 23:52:20 UTC  

That's how it all began, however, and the boundaries continued to expand.

2019-09-21 23:52:28 UTC  

You give an inch, and a mile is thus taken, in the name of "progress."
