Yea, but considering the whole thing

I thought he did well

Don't forget Tim is a fashionable socialist and a bernie boi

It wasn't his podcast and he was talking to the CEO of twitter. I am sure he didn't want to come across as too argumentative or "crazy"

He just happens to have a few principles he manages to stick to around free speech and journalistic integrity

He's a true believer in those things

@Dick Dastardly™ The dude is left leaning. That is why I was surprised he went as hard as he did

He earned a bit of respect in my book for that

He seems like an OK guy but I can't respect him because he's a socialist

What's more is he's a smart person so he ought to know better

@Dick Dastardly™ I respect him for his unwillingness to back down against free speech

Lots of smart people are socialists

I can praise a dude for a thing he did without condoning him in his entirety. That's was the left can't do

A socialist cannot truly be in support of free speech in the long term because socialist societies cannot long tolerate freedom of speech due to the economic consequences of their implementation

They must necesarily control the flow of information in order to preserve power and preserve belief in the system

An amusing irony considering the fact that the U.S. has become more socialist over time, in a de facto manner in regards to policy

Cuz wahmens vote

So you see this encroachement on freedom of speech and property ownership happening but he doesn't make the connection I think

Bernie bois beleive in a puppies and ice cream socialism that has never and can never exist

@Dick Dastardly™ I'm not sure he is a rabid socialist. I don't actually know his politics nor do I truly care. I just wanted to give him a little praise for standing up to the CEO of twitter for three hours over their shitty policies

He's not rabid, he's fashionable

Name a socialist country that is currently thriving.

I just think he doesn’t know enough to be more right leaning

I was center right before mgtow

I think if he grew up in a genuinely socialist country he wouldn't be socialist

@Dick Dastardly™ That 99% of socialists

Socialism is just communism anyway, it just takes longer to fail

I'm not discrediting his good work, I'm just pointing out the paradoxical nature of his beliefs and his actions I suppose

Communism goes against human nature.

@Dick Dastardly™ I agree

George Orwell had a similar problem to take a historical example

@[chase dreams] idk about all that

Communism is against nature, society is too to an extent, but so long as your society fits within the boundaries of nature it can last endefinitely

Communism goes against evolution and nature nature, not human nature

Does the death of 250 million people help you consider that communism is against human nature?

I say it goes against human nature because humans are, by nature, greedy.

What you say doesn't make sense @Nawalter Jizney because human nature is a product of evolution

I think "self-interested" is a better adjective than greedy

Capitalism motivates people to reach their financial goals by working hard. If you invent something under communism, you get nothing for it.

Greedy is too subjective

Sometimes if you invent something under communism you get killed for it
