Destiny is like the Bill Maher of political internet personalities. He liked Bernie for a hot minute and now spends all his time talking about how the left has gone too far for a reasonable "lefty" like himself.
Remember when Destiny had Luna Oi on and he literally laughed in her face about the US mass murdering her people?
The guy is a straight up sociopath.
This community is pretty far left
:doubt:
Any time anyone says this shit, it is a lie; their crops are withered and their cows give sour milk
It used to be that way with Obama. People would always say, "And I voted for Obama" before saying some right-wing talking point.
Holy shit I thought I was on :reddit-logo: for a second there.
fellas, i don't mean to brag, but i was banned from /r/destiny :barx:
lol yea i got hit by that too, literally never even looked at it until i went there one day and saw the perma ban message
The first time I heard of destiny the human was getting banned from posting there.
Also it then Answered the question of “Why is the Reddit for the game Destiny very specifically called Destinythegame?”
didn't this guy get banned from twitch or whatever for being a racist? and you have to do some serious racism to actually get banned on those sites.
"Objectivity" is an inherently poisonous concept.it simply doesn't exist. Everyone views the world from a position defined by their culture, life experiences, language, and personal biases. No matter how objective you think you are. Its essentially a self inflicted blind spot where you believe the way you see the world is the world as it actually exists.
It's important to recognize and examine your biases. Once you've done that you can admit to yourself that you don't know everything and you're better positioned to try (try!) To find flaws in your reasoning and to appreciate other arguments and viewpoints.
Remember the attack helicopter meme?
Destiny literally “came out” as gender fluid or something to win an argument. Basically, an I identify as someone who gets to do transphobia moment. If anyone is pushing the boundaries of self identification too far, it’s this greasy weirdo and his brainless fans.
Who needs to debate Destiny in order for him to stop making incel rage bait for his fans to spam all over Reddit? Are thirst trap streamers “the left” lol?
If a few right wing propaganda points are enough to shift you over to the right, then you were never a leftist to begin with.
There's a very consistent thread here; these people who were "forced to the right" have never heard a sentence containing "stateless, classless, moneyless" in their entire miserable lives. They're all shackled to the wall in Plato's cave with no idea that they don't know what "the left" even is.
Ironically, though, Destiny in particular has. He just hates the idea. He got absolutely fucking schooled by Michael Albert who spent like an hour educating Destiny about leftism and what it means, and Destiny basically admitted he had no argument whatsoever against what Albert was saying, and then came back the next day and said that Albert had the craziest and most disconnected ideas he'd ever heard. It was absolutely clownish.
Almost exactly what happened with :funny-clown-hammer: and Hakim. These grifters have to inoculate their audience against people who are smarter, more knowledgeable, and more moral.
It just doesnt make sense either, if a Trans person explodes on you and makes you feel bad about yourself, that shouldn't make you go right, it should just keep you temporarily from going more leftward. It's just a bad interaction.
no one wants to hang out with me? could it be that I spew fascist talking points? no, it's the leftists who are at fault
You and me both. They spend all their time caping for right-wingers and teaching Nick Fuentes optics while being mad at Hasan for saying Gusano.
Liberals are not fascist-lite, they are full fascists in denial. There's a difference.
'Member when Destiny unironically took the position that reactionary militias should mow down BLM protesters to protect private property, and then doubled down on it? Good times. What a "leftist".
They say Take all meaning out of identity like it's a bad thing... As if that was ever why the joke became a thing, and not just right wingers being dicks.
"normal people" of course means sheltered suburban scum who get paid too much for fake jobs and have never faced material inconvenience, let alone oppression.
“Real jobs” and “paid too much” are some very huge red flags. And not the cool kind.
They are still alienated from the fruits of their labor. Odds are good they are not overpaid, but are producing more value than they get paid. Possibly not at a 100 x 1 ratio as with some jobs.
Even then, it’s still a job. All jobs are real, this horse was beaten and executed and then brought back from dead, beaten again, brought back, killed again.
They are still alienated from the fruits of their labor. Odds are good they are not overpaid, but are producing more value than they get paid
The vast majority of Fascists are exploited workers. Having to participate in the Capitalist mode of production does not inherently make someone a good or valuable person. Their material interests and their revolutionary potential are what's relevant. Middle class people have almost no reason to adopt radical politics, and they don't. It's basic material analysis.
Epic
Do you have a specific part you take issue with? I'd be happy to point you to an introduction to Marxism.
I really didn't intend to insult any office workers here, it just seems extremely obvious to me that a community of comfortable freaks who despise the Far Left are going to have an economic basis to match.
Uhh, don’t base your class analysis on weather they’re “good or valuable” pls.
I was objecting to the tone of the response I got, which is clearly "they're workers, therefore they're good."
Idk if the response to that is to imply that they’re bad or deserving of suffering because they don’t have any revolutionary potential.
Maybe I misread you tho.
