🤷 point is it's deceptive

well

my point is that I don't particularly care about the fundamental question

I just wish Contra would stop being a jerk to people half a world away who are effectively being oppressed for telling jokes about as edgy as the ones she tells

it's called a Denial of Service attack

:0

lel

ok so she's using examples from the 80s and other examples where it was not disclosed that someone was trans

as evidence trap is a harmful slur

"no taking of your freeze peach on this channel"

disclosure would be a sensible move because it's the sudden shock she attributes it to

I guess I feel about Contra a softer version of what I feel about hbomberman

i think if contra cut her videos into serious and more edgy ones it would help a lot

I do respect contra more than hbomberguy I'll give you that

the few i have watched it felt like the sarcasm was overwriting the message of each point made

people put tremendous effort into thinking out their positions on some things... but completely miss crucial details of their core world view

which were very well researched, to contra's credit

@Epizestro I mean, hbomberguy is a prick, but he's good at putting together arguments and videos... but he's also an unabashed, unironic ignorant communist

nah he's not very good at putting together arguments, he always uses the same formula

sure

of just asserting shit smugly

well

I'll rephrase

there are those would would say sargon does the same thing

yes

he's good at putting together straightforward arguments against obvious nonsense

sargon is also cringey

merely smugly or loudly asserts things

sargon actually evolves his political philosophy

and integrates criticism

I doubt wee sargon 2014 could even grasp his current positions

doesn't make him not cringey

idunno

I've watched him get where he's at

he reminds me of some folks I've known personally

they are genuine

even if shit comes off a bit cringey sometimes

I'm not talking about his position, I'm talking about how he acts

idunno

I think it's less cringey if you feel you've seen the whole progression

you can be a full blown communist and not act in a cringey way, although good luck finding one
