he can still be a dick sometimes

Agree ^

sargons longform venezueal video was really good

...I think that's just being a certain flavor of British.

heres the thing

Mad respect to you tim for calling him out in nyc

when i called sargona a dick he was like "yea I get it"

you call a regresive out and they spew acid vomit

In person too

Its like when Wolverine calls Cyclops a dick in the first movie

i called him out on stage at his own event and he acknowledged it

thats why i respect him and consider him a friend

he can self reflect

he can admit when he makes mistakes and improve

What about his principles though ?

and its that trait that allows him to be good at what he does

Sometimes, ya gotta be a dick if it's the only way people will listen. But ya gotta know when to turn conciliatory once people understand you find what they're doing horrid.

Calros made a point about how "manspreading" just incites and doesnt help

sargon agreed

so i asked him why he called nicholas matte a soyboy

I'm sure he likes you too, you bloody wanker.

Probably cuz its fun to do that periodically

in the context of the debate matte did nothing uncivil

so I think it was not warranted

Oh it was during a debate

I thought you meant in a video or something

"The killstream"

sargon sucks at live debates

it was in reference to the MAtte Peterson debate

Oh, okay. Yeah I can see how that's a problem.

sargon referenced the video

not to amttes face

so I can understand calling someone out and being rude if they are uncivil

Man killstream is great

I'm not surprised oprahsminge thinks this.

like sargon told richard carrier to shut up several times in Milwaukee so I booed

I will always have a fondness for Sargon, because watching his videos encouraged me to think more centrically. But the recent internet drama regarding him, Kraut and Tea, and now Jim and TL;DR... it's turned me off a lot.

If he wants to tell people to take the high road, and be more thoughtful and more politically active, I'm all for that. But when he reverts to older Sargon and base insults and things like that... especially when he's said previously to take the argument and not the person.

Just the best

Every time this particular person speaks, it's something silly.

carrier was interrupting

but its still bad form imo
