I thought that this post is self-explanatory, but here is the first thing Destiny thinks of, when he sees Dave Rubin.
@PonyPanda
Well, do you consider yourself a leftie?
@PonyPanda
No, I don't deal with neither left winger or right wingers in real life. I even avoided centrists. :D
@PonyPanda
Nice try, but as long as there are actual antifa supporters among them, there is no way in hell I can accept any kind of "we just want to be left alone" snob story.
And I asked about your political leaning hoping, you could recommend me some leftie podcaster capable of forming arguments, but if you aren't one, then your recommendation wouldn't mean much I guess.
@PonyPanda
I'm not sure.
Until recently, I did used to believe that he's capable of formulating an argument, and I still do listen to him because his takes are truly his own. But I kinda cannot wrap my head around the last few streams.
Because, he did came up against the topic of vaccines being pushed by absolute wave of tatal anti-science bullshit (100% safe and effective etc), and he still cannot acknowledge, that some rightoids (including me) saw that as a death to scientific based discourse.
And also, he tried dodging the topic of SCIENTISTS LYING ABOUT SCIENCE by comparing it to Trump talking like a human.
But the deeper topic came to me about 8 months ago, when I finally had a chance to talk to a "trans lesbian" (girl, who doesn't identify, and likes a girl), and we did end up debating politics. And her formulation of not identifying with either sex was absolutely unique. And I thought "9 years of this bullshit, and literally all I heard on the topic was IT'S MAAM and death threats"
So, that kinda shook me. What do you think about Destiny?
@PonyPanda
You don't have to be to form an argument based on your political beliefs.
I would even say, that it's a huge disadvantage, if you're trying to understand the average.
@PonyPanda
I don't believe that, but I absolutely understand how you reached that conclusion.
