Since then, the main meme in his comment sections is that that's basically all he does. Edit: That article that painted him as being part of the CZcams alt-right didn't help, of course.

      Well, there's not really a way to arrive at being a socialist purely through "honestly engaging." There's a heavily emotional component to becoming socialist; just take all the intelligent, compassionate conservatives who aren't socialists, after all. I mean, conservatives graduate from top universities all over the world and some are huge philanthropists, so why aren't they socialist? Because they don't have the core values that are necessary to lead you further left. That's how I see it, anyways.

That can be traumatic and also the realities of our world are sad so yeah it's emotional but it isn't irrational. It seems like people think that rationality and emotions are opposites or don't correlate. Which I think they can be that way but they also can coincide and with leftist ideas they do coincide.

He is very knowledgeable about capitalism but anything pertaining to actual leftism he seems very resistant to actually put in the work to understand. So he ends up creating weird lefty strawmen to yell at and rant against.

    And regarding his anti union stance, take a look in the history of unions in Europe, etc. The same arguments were used there and guess what: unions helped fighting for workers rights and dealing with the fact that they were replaceable. I feel like some education on things that were already tried somewhere else would not hurt us americans...and now people in western europe have unions and are better of, than they were before. Only because they fought for their rights.

      Oh, so many jobs, for people to just work and have their labor exploited since their teens, for the lowest bidder, or else you die. What a lovely life full of choices. So many new jobs, so many managers, and so many companies selling you the dream of delayed gratification to make sure their industry is fueled by your sunk cost fallacy. But then, the world changes and doesn't need you as much as it used to, and then you've lost your wager. Too bad it was "your" choice to believe in "our" dreams. What a lovely free world this is! That's clearly a sign of economic progress, right?

      @@Snobbishbumpkin Do you not see the problem in your thinking? You're literally telling people to get educated _so that_ they find work. Because they _need_ to do that. You don't want educated people, you want _trained_ people. Because that's your framing. When you think like that, it's all about how workers can offer their labor, not how you can maximize the well-being of your society. Blue collar is completely irrelevant to this. A burger-flipper, a manager and an engineer, still get _trained_ to produce rather than educated.
      And I'm not even an US citizen. I've seen all sides of the grass, though, and the grass in the US is just rotten. I've seen both academia and the corporate world, on all sides, and one thing is clear: People that know better, wouldn't bet on the US. People don't want to move there, work there, or raise a family there. Though, they sure as hell would open a business to get some of that labor exploitation tax-cut mullah. I wonder why that is. It's almost as if the US is a capitalist dystopia...

Seems like you've never seen much outside your bubble. They really aren't that great, sorry to burst your bubble. They aren't. They're just universities like any other, but with funds and branding. That's it. Weak-ass indoctrinated exceptionalist arguments.

    Labor cost of a vehicle that cost around $25,000, which is the average cost of a vehicle in the US, is around 10%, that's $2500 per vehicle. And that percentage will decrease as the cost of the vehicle rises. So keeping these jobs in the US doesn't double the price of the vehicle as Destiny estimates.

      Destinty thinks we can just whip up the neolib dream of a controlled labor economy where we just force every kid to be forced into a xanned out white collar job through relentless college prep style education. Children right now are stressed as fuck already. That's why so many of the' are so fucking left AND vocal about it on social media currently. They see that they are being fed into a broken labor system where even a college degree doesn't lead to the kind of employment which can keep folks in a stable situation.

    I know Destiny knows a lot about music, but his comments on the "musical foundation" of artists is a really common criticism of experimental music. Not everyone is going to like Captain Beefheart, or something even more outsider like the Shaggs, but even if you don't personally enjoy what artists like those have done, it is undeniable that they had an effect on the music that came after them by virtue of their sheer uniqueness. What Melon said towards the end is really relevant: sometimes an education can be restrictive. Breaking known rules is not the same as creating without knowing any rules at all. It's like the difference between Picasso (learned rules and broke them) and Basquiat (said fuck rules in general).

      Well that is a really dumb take. A vote for Bernie is already in and of itself splitting the vote since Biden is destroying everyone in the polls (although I'm aware this may change as it gets to the debates and such).
      Andrew Yang is pretty well on board with everything Bernie Sanders is, he is younger (the parabolic growth of technology is going to sledgehammer everyone in the face, youth is important), and as a bonus he focuses on automation from an informed position as a threat that needs to be addressed. His policy plan, UBI, is something pretty much anyone that understands what neural networks are, what they can do, and how they threaten to displace people faster than employing new people will support.
      I dunno, I guess I just like the idea of making an informed decision of who I vote for (I supported Andrew Yang by randomly happening upon videos of him before I knew there was a weird internet cult surrounding him) rather than voting for someone out of some duty to just do it (what you're suggesting people do by voting for Sanders).

    lol “feel good” position. Okay destiny
    The access to better living condition benefits overall health which has massive monetary impacts as well as increasing productivity an many other things that will help encourage change over time.
    Like unionized workers, this would work for wages and it would also allow for more educated and active political lower class who can counter corporate money in politics. Plus UNIONS CAN TRAIN PEOPLE FOR OTHER JOBS IN SIMILAR FIELDS. This is common so no they don’t have a full need latch to dying jobs.
    That’s not the main thing that moving towards bettering working class policies can do but I think it’s something to highlight. While there will be many split opinions on a lot of issues, (because the us is wacky) it will create a real political body to counter businesses buying the us and it’s policies.
    It’s not “oh it feels nice no treating workers like shit”. Lol
    There are a lot of impacts and benefits from doing it. You just need to actually put down “markers solve everything” and actually have a real non capitalist critique of of markets.
    Because without it. The solution will ALWAYS BE “what about more markets”.
    And when you see the overall trend and end goal you realize you need to be able to step back.
    And no. Losing jobs won’t make more. Less people usually occupy the returning non bs jobs. As the goal is to decrease costs. and workers are a primary cost that can be cut over time.
    Capitalists don’t need any given worker. But any given worker needs their boss to live.

      Like unionized workers, this would work for wages and it would also allow for more educated and active political lower class who can counter corporate money in politics. Plus UNIONS CAN TRAIN PEOPLE FOR OTHER JOBS IN SIMILAR FIELDS. This is common so no they don’t have a full need latch to dying jobs.
      There is a market of influence.
      Why do unions die? Simply put, because collective bargaining power got weaker, the only thing a union is in the end is a collective bargaining tool. Why did all the unions die? because globalization leads to lower bargaining potentials for unions, as the capitalist can just to another country. The union can only stay strong under those conditions. In addition, your governments are competing for the capitalists capital, as the capitalist can pick where he wants his next venture to be, the various governments will incentivize the capitalist to come there, often with lower taxes or lower regulation.
      In addition, a union is just like any other bureaucracy, just like you have giant companies like GM, that fall behind in the modern market, they will use what influence they have to maintain the bureaucracy, not necessarily the worker.
      " There are a lot of impacts and benefits from doing it. You just need to actually put down “markers solve everything” and actually have a real non capitalist critique of of markets. Because without it. The solution will ALWAYS BE “what about more markets”. "
      A union is literally competing in the market of bargaining power, bargaining power is a market, it follows the same trends of markets, you can have monopolies on bargaining power, and bargaining power, like all other markets follows a logarithmic distribution. Your union can't bargain if the capitalists can just not hire you and move to a poorer state, or a different country.
      People who think unions are the answer are woefully uninformed. Most coutnries with "strong" unions, are increasingly weakening. Sweden for example, despite being a fairly pro union place, has a decrease in the amount of union workers and fairly strong increase in gini(inequality metric) over the past 20 years.
      Seriously... what is the solution? the government is basically good at doing broad scale programs, such as education, infrastructure. etc. etc. And government always has bargaining power because of how it has power. Unions on the other hand can easily have their power destroyed by changes in individual markets....
      The only option is big government, unions can't protect the workers... they are too weak

      Without government capitalists wouldnt be able to infuence policies because they wouldnt exist.The existence of government violates the individual right of freedom. Then no external force can coerce the worker to work for someone or commit actions such as stealing.The only coercive action acting an individual is that of death but that it prt of the individual and his responsibility

    So I'm pausing 34:10 mark to tell you that this "market works great for high skilled labor" argument absolutely craters when examing academia and the Uberization of professors.

      Not to mention there's a bunch of academic work that is valuable for non market reasons. Like some people study medevil history. That shit will not turn a profit, however I'm glad we have people that do that work and can enrich our understanding of the past, independent of how much money that information can be used to create.
