You're not going to get a channer to go from laughing about Tran people getting beaten to death to being polite intersectional feminists overnight. Most people need a bridge out. Destiny, Vaush, & the dirt bag left are that bridge.

That's not to say that they are the END, they are a STEP, & a necessary one at that. It's upto other people to move those channers farther to the Left. The alt-right has a pipeline. Leftists need one to.

It's valid to argue that having irreverent channers on the Left is uncivil & it is, but I would rather deal with some uncivil Left leaning people than the next alt-right terrorist

And let's not act like the Left doesn't already have uncivil radicals that existed before 4chan. Tankies are worse than any impolite ex-channer

You don't have to interact with the more corse parts of the Left. That's fine. It's not for everyone & isn't SUPPOSED to be, but they need to exist when the Far Right is growing like crazy & is in power.

Seriously stuff like this,
@RationalDis. Like, I get what you're saying, but your argument only makes sense if he weren't actually just some aggro dude who occasionally makes the far right look like fools when he feels like it.1 reply 0 retweets 10 likes -

But when did I say that "he's allowed to call people like SpeaksAngie monkeys, and people shouldn't call him out for it is liberal nonsense" I call him out all the time when he goes too far. I'm against the idea that there is no place for edgy people.

I personally don’t take destiny seriously, I also don’t have the social capital to “cancel” him and I’m also not a proponent of cancelling people.But, I do think you’re giving destiny more credit than he actually deserves.

I’m all for people being free to say what they feel and adopt whatever affect suits them but my problem here is what I like to call the “Chud dunking Industrial complex” the very business model that sustains folks like him and vaush

I mean, I'm kinda in that business too. So I'm going to defend it.

That’s the thing we all are! Nobody is immune to capitalism under capitalism But I’m not delusional enough to think it’s activism or try to form a cult of personality around my rationality. This is the issue
