You must be a lost conservative soying out about destiny when you probably barely knew who he was 72 hours ago. \n\nI don't see what is so hard to understand. \n\nDestiny's position - Trump attempted to coup the government with the false slate of electors scheme. He used the threat of violence to attempt to pressure Pence to cooperate. Hence he is a traitor. Destiny loves America and democracy and does not have sympathy for those that support a traitor. \n\nDestiny is no longer willing to pretend that Trump is not an oath breaker and that those that support him are not actively threatening democracy. \n\nIf you believed a presidential candidate was a real and immediate threat to democracy what types of feelings would you hold about that candidate and their supporters? \n\n99% of everyone destiny debates whether conservative, Republican, centrist, w.e have not read any of the indictments or investigations into the false electors scheme. They are passing judgement on destiny's position without even evaluating its legitimacy because they essentially worship trump. People like you seem more interested in owning the liberals than critically evaluating what trump did. \n\nIf you want to actually understand some of this perspective I have rambled about read these. \n\nBreakdown of false electors scheme:\n\n https://www.justsecurity.org/81939/timeline-false-electors/\n\nCommentary from some legal scholars regarding the implications of Trump's immunity case and his past behavior:\n\nhttps://fakenous.substack.com/p/trump-vs-united-states\n\nhttps://reason.com/volokh/2024/07/03/thoughts-on-the-trump-immunity-decision/\n\nIf you are unwilling to engage with any of the underlying context then you are wasting your time commenting all over this sub.",

And using the using the “threat to democracy” rhetoric to justify anything is ridiculous. I can just as easily say that Trump was “defending democracy” with the false electors scheme. He believed the election was stolen from him, so he was just defending democracy.\n\nI do appreciate the links as knowledge of the electors plot should be more widespread. However, Destiny failing to condemn the shooter, along with the myriad of other things he has said, is not the way to go about this. I understand the underlying context. What I am saying is that Destiny’s position is insane, regardless of context.",

The fact you are so outraged by Destiny but unwilling to even read about what trump did is telling. This behavior of yours is not different then lefty moralistic grandstanding. \n\nYou - \"Wah your streamer man won't condemn this guy's death!!!\"\n\nMe - \"You are cheering on a traitor to our constitution and unwilling to review the evidence. You are demanding that I have sympathy for those that cheer for a traitor but you will not even acknowledge Trumps actions.\"",

My claim from the start has been that if Destiny believes you are a threat to democracy, then you deserve to die. Destiny’s tweets and comments since the assassination attempt have demonstrated this. \n\nJan 6th was horrible and anyone that committed a crime that day should be tried. That stance is much more common among conservatives than you would think. \n\nWe don’t know if Corey was targeted for his political views as we do not know the motives of the shooter yet. Not sure what you mean by twisting the narrative when my claim from the start has been that if Destiny believes you are a threat to democracy, then you deserve to die. In response, you have since highlighted why you think trump supporters are a threat to democracy. \n\nWhy the strawman? Again, I am aware of the fake electors plot. And again, I am saying that even if someone supports the fake electors plot and J6, they still do not deserve to die. \n\nA much more accurate and realistic summary of our conversation would be\n\nMe: it’s not a good look to support and wish for the death of your political opponents.\n\nYou: They are a threat to democracy.",

That stance is much more common among conservatives than you would think. \n\nWill you be voting for trump? \n\nI am independent and I hate the Democratic party and I hate that the Republican party has completely adopted the Trump party. Trump is neither conservative nor Republican. \n\nIMO braindead conservatives are willing to allow a dictator to come to power in the hope that they get to stick it to the liberals. I didn't like Hilary and I don't like Biden. But Biden did not try to coup our democracy and break his oath to the Constitution. \n\nThe Democratic party has done nothing to get my vote but they will get it because I will not support a populist dictator. \n\nJan 6th is not just about the protestors/rioters it is about the fake electors plot and Trump's direct actions to pressure Pence. \n\n>We don’t know if Corey was targeted for his political views as we do not know the motives of the shooter yet.\n\nWas Cory the target? \n\n>Why the strawman? Again, I am aware of the fake electors plot. And again, I am saying that even if someone supports the fake electors plot and J6, they still do not deserve to die. \n\nYou say you are aware of it. Did you read the links I shared or other primary sources or are you aware of what Tim Pool or some other braindead propagandist said about it? If you read the indictments and have no problem supporting trump something is seriously wrong and you are suffering from idolatry. \n\nNo one said they deserve to die, but if they were to die, don't go looking to Destiny for sympathy. I don't know why this is so upsetting to you. \n\nI am sure you were outraged when Trump talked about how only the 2nd amendment folks can stop Hilary. \n\n>Me: it’s not a good look to support and wish for the death of your political opponents.\n\nOk? It is not a good look to support those who are trying to create a dictatorship. It is not a good look to support a traitor. \n\n>You: They are a threat to democracy.\n\nYes, and Destiny does not have sympathy for those that pose an imminent threat to our democracy.",

At the same times that D and DGG chat spam things like \"????\" and \"WHAT HE SAYING\" , Asmon's chat is saying things like \"SHE LIED\" and \" SHES SO MAD\".\n\nThe chat is clearly more interested in the spectacle of what's being said, and dont pick up on any of the nonsense that trump says.\n\nThe YT comments are just there to bash Kamala, saying things 'LOL she dodged the first question so fast' , with other commenters correctly calling them out telling them that trump didn't answer a single question at all.\n\nBut something happens about 20 minutes into the debate.\n\nAsmon start to recognize that something is \"Off\". He starts saying things like \"that didnt make sense, oh my god they let him get the last word on that??\", \"oh that was a good one (in relation to a Kamala point)\". He starts laughing at the things that trump says and listening to Kamala speak instead of how she looks. AT around this time you notice the chat start to slowly turn over too. It really speaks to how much control streamers have over thier community (despite what other large super left creators will tell you \\*wink wink\\*) AT this time the trump supporters also start to feel like things are starting to go the wrong direction and complain about bad moderation, depsite trump SPEAKING OVER THEM and geting the last word every time.\n\nThe Jan 6 Panel was an amazing tool that people seemed to really like, and as we've seen on twitter, other people are interested in taking part in. With all the work that D did to come up with that sort of idea, what do you all think would be an appropriate way to tackle a community or content creator that perpetuates this sort of narrative?",
"role": "user"
},
{
"content": "I still think targeting the weak links (XQC, Asmon) on the right with things like the focus group or debates does more to change minds than engaging with those who have very dug in audiences. \n \nFor example, Destiny has said that he wants to appeal to the people in the middle of the audience. If he is talking to Candice Ownes- there is **NO ONE** in the middle in the audience there. Each side is going to be fully dug in and there is very few if any minds being changed. And if they are changed, a reversion is highly likely due to the rest of the persons media consumption habits.",

{
"content": "Yea totally agree with that. Id be curious to see if Asmon would even entertain the idea of streaming the focus group though.

Would explain why theyve talked off stream but VERY rarely on, plus the fact that tiny is banned on twitch obviously.",

I don't speak as smoothly as I used to. I don't debate as well as I used to.

"content": "Dude you’re just wrong on so many levels that I’m going to make a few points but I’m done after.\n\nDementia or any form of cognitive decline isn’t stupidity. Stupidity is typically a lack of common sense or intelligence, dementia is a degenerative disorder where you are losing cognitive functions, get confused, etc… they are functionally different and trying to equate the two is just dumb. \n\nAn example would be if I made a perfectly crafted clock, wood engraved, blah blah and then someone left it out in the rain until the wood rotted. You wouldn’t say “That clock was constructed poorly”, you would say it has water damage. Its construction is being fundamentally adjusted by that water damage, but the initial craftsmanship is still superb. \n\nSecond, rationalization is one of the first things to go in dementia, hence the confusion. Yet you want a “demented” person to self-evaluate and decide “You know, my brain isn’t working like it used to.” except the parts of the brain that would you would utilize to do a performance benchmark (memory and reasoning) are the same parts that are most effected by dementia. \n\nIt’d be like telling a diabetic to just produce more insulin. If they could do that they wouldn’t be a diabetic. \n\nLast, not all leftists are “socialists” or “communists”. Though commonly thrown together, that is not a definitive part of any “leftist” ideology unless they are leftist communists/socialists. A prime example being fascism doesn’t require capitalism, but leftists would be pretty opposed to fascism it implement, Leftism doesn’t require capitalism = bad, it typically is more focus on power imbalances = bad, and that gets extended to the assumption that capitalism tends to have more power imbalances than other economic structures, so is inherently flawed.\n\nThe idea that leftism is defined by its views on capitalism is just… incorrect, its first-order revolves around social and societal norms not economic ones. \n\nSo… yah. \n\nI don’t feel like you’re familiar enough with these topics to have a good basis of conversation so… good luck!

I feel like Destiny said he’d take a picture with Hitler just to uphold his belief that it wasnt that bad just because it was XQC. And when asked if X is involved in politics he says “tangentially”. I understand yes for his viewers it may be good because theyre a bunch of 12 year old sucking on spoons but also there’s a thing called having a spine. \nIts funny Destiny would rather talk about how he’d take a picture with Hitler than just say that taking photo ops with Fascistic rulers is bad to do as a content creator because you have a large responsibility as a content creator of X’s size to not steer your audience down bad moral roads. Destiny even agrees with this because he talks about how when Hasan fans do something wrong, creators never take responsibility, and that if Destiny fans do something horrible, thats his fault. So, by that same logic if Trump had a Jan 6 part 2, and X fans attended because now they thinks its just “memes”, X should be liable if his fans. But no, its whatever, its just a photo….

I don't believe the entirety of MT should be judged by the first part of season 1. However, it is a 34 year old man's mind (more specifically memories) in a child's body. Does this fit the criteria of **** or should it be examined differently?\n\nI know he discussed grooming Sylphy and he did some wrong things accidentally, I think you could maybe argue he is a predator here. The real issue is, when he meets Eris, and for multiple years he leers, gropes, assaults, and the audience gets to see his inner thoughts on how he feels about her. I think it is morally inappropriate for a child to treat another child like this. \n\nBut the crux is, is Rudeus considered a 34 year old man in a child's body (does this change anything?) or is he considered a young child with the memories of a 34 year old man. The Man God tells Rudeus he has a weird mental image of himself and after his fight with Orsted refers to Rudeus as kid, so the world truly views him as new person.\n\nI come to you all because you aren't afraid to discuss weird crap like this and are able to critique and analyze it without worrying about the social stigma. I'm not experienced enough in philosophy, psychology, or any of the necessary fields to make a good argument for or against. But my thoughts on the matter is basically what is Rudeus supposed to do, he seems to be an incredibly mature child but is child nonetheless in my opinion.\n\nEdit: Another thing I've seen brought up and I believe to be true.

So from this you get 'term inflation' where the perception of america's state continues to drift further and further into one direction only, until you reach a point where saying \"america is better than a 3rd world country\" makes you sound like a bootlicker.\n\nI think this exact phenomenon happens with so many things",
