Tim pool. The man who can somehow turn any conversation into him wingeing about how hes the "only sane liberal left" . Le big brained leftie pretending to be centrist for extra big brain points.
I dont like Tim. He just annoys me. I hope hes not on this stream all night
He might poke you here tho
<:pepe_smile:378719407977005068>
Hehe
If he wants to sperg about how some people dont like him then thats fine with me. I dont think hes that autistic however.
Me neither tbh
Anyway sleepy time, good luck to you USA people, see how it is when i wake up
Yeye. G'night
Yeah, Tim's a good guy, but I think he's kidding himself a bit holding out hope for the Democrats.
identity politics is their golden cow. They won't let it go that easily
*reenter stream
*Talking about someone running (styx I think)
First words from Tim
Tim:"Would he run as a Republican" (accusingly, as if thats inherently bad)
Yep. Im holding out for the VOD. Im not waiting out Tim.
Hell, the whole oppression narrative has been their platform for several generations
Identity politics have been the democrats more or less since Johnson passed the civil rights act of 1964. Its only recently it became their ONLY platform
As long as the state as an apparatus exists, it will be a weapon to be used against the populace to remove us of our liberties
🤷🏻
State is a required evil.
eh, my opinion is still out on that. I'm not convinced yet
we
Put two toddlers next to each other in a room of toys and snacks. 5 minutes and their ripping each other apart even though there is plenty for each. People might think theyre beyond that behaviour, but they're saying so while living in this system and even then contradicting themselves.
Anyone who compares adult humans to children is well on their way to authoritarian thinking
Already, you have undermined and shown disregard for the individual sovereignty owed to every man
This is the same thinking the Liberal Elites have with regard to their consituents. "They NEED me, a man of Reason, who is able to make decisions for them"
Flowery words to deflect from what I said while not adressing it. Your telling me that a world of violent and greedy people will magically sort itself out without ANY mold is ridiculous.
You make the assumption that the state actually solves those problems
If anything, the fact the state exists for nefarious people to use as a position of power, leads to more of that behavior
That's why you try to limit their power. Check ambitions against each other. You won't be able to do anything of the sort with the violent warlords an anarchy would produce in the first place. Its not pretty, its not perfect. But its real.
Why do you assume violent warlords are the alternative? What proof do you have?
Human history. Check any time a state collapses
And before any existed
I disagree, but I'm also not advocating for violent overthrow or collapse of any sort, which leads to failures in infrastructure and trade
Then how would you ever remove a state?
If a state is just violence surely you must destroy it in kind
It would be the moral and pragmatic thing to do
in 99% of most people's lives, the state has no impact on what goes on, other than being a minor nuisance
What's the difference if it just didn't exist?
Honestly, I wouldn't mind if the "government" were nothing more than the military, with the amount of name recognition you'd have with something like ADT, or your bank
99%? Dont pull numbers out your ass man. Government is all pervasive in almost everyone's life. Should it be less? We can talk. But removeing it entirely is not only unreasonably impossible but unlikely to help anyone.
The only problems it solves, are those it brings upon itself.
In your day to day life?
So murderers would catch themselves? Who wouldve thunk
At most, you go to the DMV like once a year. When else do you interact with the govt?
