      I view Destiny as center-left and myself as center-right. I believe most people are in this area. I do disagree on most topics you mentioned today. (covid vaccines, Faucci, Schwab, Gates, anti-establishment, last election, abortion, Jan 6th and more) I would not have issue with you explaining your viewpoint on any of these subjects but I have don't mine as well which has lead to my viewpoint. We agree on many subjects as well (capitalism, guns and healing the country by listening to each other). I would love to take to you sometime and allow you to convince me as long as you agree to be open to my research as well. I think your message would be better served debating someone who is not from a more extreme view.

      It's aincredibly simple question. People like to complicate things in an attempt to obfuscate the obvious. Hydrogen - easy to define: a chemical element with atomic number 1. Hydrogen gas, H2, zero ambiguity. It's a clearly defined, and easy to define thing. A chair, like he says, is more difficult to define. But EVERYONE knows what a chair is. I'd challenge him to find someone who doesn't know... or anyone who is confused about it. Woman falls into the hydrogen category. Or, even if it's like chair, even though it's hard to define, we all know what one is. As George Carlin (or perhaps it was some else)... I can't define porn, but i know it when I see it.

But talking to your average leftist they are either beyond clueless to what people on the right think.

    I am Conservative and I love Steven. Sure, we disagree on a lot of things but that is ok. We need to get back to being able to disagree with people's opinions yet still be able to be mature adults and even have good friendships. We may disagree politically on a lot of things but we can connect on a multitude of others things. I wish everyone approached politics the way Steven does. I used to be an abolitionist when it comes to abortion but it was Stevens debates with other pro-lifers that convinced me to loosen my reigns on access to abortion. I used to believe in NO exceptions at all and that getting an abortion should be a criminal offense. I was very radical when it comes to abortion. But because of Steven I no longer have that opinion. I actually like his 20-24 weeks or whatever it is. I still believe that abortion is wrong, but a woman should still have the choice to have one up to that point.

      I’m a leftist but I agree: I’m so over the lefty echo chamber conversations. It’s more interesting and fun to actually talk to people with differing viewpoints, it’s how you get better at debating and also better at understanding why people develop different political views. Automatically shunning the opposing side is useless and juvenile.

    • @galleryofrogues

      And that’s the thing too about being pro-choice: you can still think abortion is wrong and feel however you want to personally feel about it but it’s just understanding that it’s up to each pregnant individual to make up their own mind about whether or not to terminate their pregnancy (within certain legal and medical parameters obviously).

      Same! I try to do the same thing in my small sphere of people that I associate with on a regular basis. I clash politically and ideologically with pretty much everyone that I know in real life, from religion to philosophy to politics and yet I try to have a fair conversation with people when I disagree with them (rather than shouting them down or dismissing them). I hate an echo chamber where only people that agree with me are communicating; as someone that has changed their opinions on things many times, I see an echo chamber as the antithesis of a healthy intellectual life. I have only recently discovered Destiny, but this is my favorite thing about the guy; he truly seems to want to have conversations rather than an echo chamber, endless virtue signaling, or a shout down of people that differ in opinion from him; we DESPERATELY need more of this in our society.

    Especially on social issues, the problem is the massive equivocation between "freedoms." The right demands the freedom to enforce their specific religious and cultural beliefs on an unwilling majority, the center (which is all we really have here in the US) largely is asking, "Hey, let other people [abort/transition/love/marry] even if you disagree with it because it's not your choice what other people do in a free country."
    To say - or even act like - both sides are using the same definition of freedom is insane.

Most time though the tin foil argument is usually only applied to those people who want to disregard someone entirely because of one stance on a particular issue. The guys talking to Destiny were trying to espouse that very stance by saying some people shouldn't be talked to because they considered him feel in the blank. Destiny pushed back against that. I think the best way to get rid of bad ideas is presenting better ones to people. For the most part I believe Destiny believes that as well but in this interview, it wasn't so clear. However, he did just flat out say in that interview that I can tell all these other beliefs people have by if you watch or defend Andrew Tate.

Most of the division is purposeful and is also exagerated when taking into account the basic bullshit news of the day that we yell at eachother about. In the grand scheme of things, most people agree with eachother about the things that matter. We need to make a purposeful effort to focus on things that we agree about and start from there.

    14:35 it's really crazy that you think this is a good point. Sure, language evolves, and if tomorrow half the population was adamant that manure piles should be included within the concept of "chair", then I'm sure they could bully everyone else into going along with it. however everyone would still be aware that there exists a true concept of "chair" which excludes manure piles. And this is the concept they would be referencing when they think of chairs. They could even come up with a new word for the concept, so as to avoid annoying responses like "you have chairs in your house?? but how do you deal with all the flies?". So the language evolved, but the concept remained unchanged. and all you managed to do was confuse and annoy people for a short time.

      You make a really good point. I think they are trying to redefine at the conceptual level.

It makes the trans thing particularly worse than a manure vs chair moment.

    • @Jesayou
      @Jesayou Рік тому +4

      Where you going with this? Like are you comparing the concept of chair/ manure pile to the current gender/sex or pronoun thing going on? I think you could probably go about in a better way. I mean your already framing it around fecal matter and something completely in a different realm than chair. Tree stumps can be chairs pretty easy logical leap, but no one wants to sit in shit, i mean unless your into it, godspeed to the scat lovers keep it safe and consensual and do realize that its a kink. Also what does jpeg mean now? Its taken on different meanings in different contexts, crappy deep fried picture "needs more jpeg". Can also be used in its originally term "make sure t save that image as a jpeg it makes it easier for me to import it." Also jpeg is a really new term 92 was when the format was created. Language finds a way to communicate based on previous understanding context and ton of things saying half the population can just bully the other half, I mean unless were talking 1984 but I really don't think thats whats happening I might be high and reading way too much into this. You say jpeg to someone in 1991 they are probably going to be annoyed because its a made up word that doesn't have concept behind it that people can reference. ALso also I used 1984 to not refer to the year but an idea or concept that involves big goverment in full control I assumed you know what i was talking about, semantics are never fun and usually devolve into i don't like the way your using a word.

      ​@@JesayouThey are just giving a hypothetical. It sounds preposterous but who knows what the future holds.
      Lets use a real example. Calling something "Fire" has become a complement in modern english rather than simply stating that theres a fire. That wouldnt fly (Ah look! Another word thats evolved) back in the day as a complement but likely with simple derrangement if there wasnt an actual fire. Now its fine if you want to complement something but its important to remember that fire is a thing that we need to be on the look out for and should not out right deny its true meaning.
      I believe the same thing applies to Man and Woman. People on the left, and the technically the right does this on the traditional end, are conflating the noun "man/woman" with the "idea" of how society views how a man/woman SHOULD be like. Im all for trans people and their struggle but to go as far changing the words will start to invalidate the struggles of woman, same sex marriage and yes, even trans struggles. You cant claim things like "Im not supposed to be a man/woman" while simultaneously saying that being man or woman doesnt matter. This whole take makes communication more complicated than it needs to be. Language helps organize inner concepts and thought and it falls apart if we haphazardly try changing base fundamentals.
      "Why should anyone care whats between your legs, you should like them for who they are, you're a bigot!"
      Easy to say to the perceived oppressive heterosexual man but you'd have to really bite the bullet for homosexuals since the same can be applied to them(since we've established that they cant control their sexual interest) and from it what it looks like it has.
      For a long time society in America has used these ideas of how people should be to validate their own existence.
      "Crying like a girl", "Man up", "Make them a man/woman tonight".
      Society as it is right now has evolved much further than our perceptions of these concepts. Woman can be become bread winners. Woman can vote and earn money and lead their own lives. Men need to learn more than just being bread winners now. We need to offer more than just a pay check. Offer emotional intelligence. Offer emotional security. This is on both ends of man and woman. Woman must now be learning to offer more than just emotional intelligence. But that doesnt mean we should ignore the differences. You wouldnt ignore that someone is black, hispanic, Asian or white, why should it be different for men and women?
      Theres a really good quote an indian comedian once said, I cant remember the name atm but it really stuck with me. Im probably paraphrasing but its essentially:
      If we can acknowledge that we are different and learn why and how we are different, instead of secretly knowing that we're different but pretending we're not different, perhaps we can finally be on the same page and be less different.
      We live in an amazing time where women and men can take so many different interests but we're living with obsolete notions of how we're supposed to act on those interests, which in turn negates the freedom we have to express these interests. This is supposed to be the land of the free. Men go do your nails, your hair, wear dresses, order sweet drinks at the bar. Women go chase that career, wrestle in mud, play videogames, wear jeans and dress pants, go weight lifting. Or dont! Thats okay too. Love whoever you love. Sex with whoever tickles your fancy and be proud of that. I want there to be competitions of how well a man get a date versus a woman with out the shaming. You had sex with a guy/girl? Hell yeah! Thats awesome! We need to stop with this whole mens body counts are to be respected but womens should be shameful. It wouldnt be fair the other way around.
      Men are still men and women are still women. Its fine if you want to transfer or do body mods but that doesnt change what these are. Especially since most people are fine with what they are.

    Destiny is the first progressive I found myself listening to incessantly. I grew up in a typical democrat household, democrat good republican bad. Never really challenged it or looked into politics growing up until I was 16, the same year trump got elected. It’s safe to say I fell into the trump train pretty hard. It felt really good too tbh, I felt rebellious. Everyone around me in school was the stereotypical screaming SJW so it was refreshing to engage ideas on the opposite end and it was extremely satisfactory. It wasn’t because I had bigotry or hate in my heart or some stupid shit, I genuinely believed I had found the truth that it was actually the democrats who were bad and the new age republicans were the answer. I don’t remember how old I was but I must’ve been 19 or 20 when I stumbled upon destiny’s content and man I’m so glad I did. I still don’t know where exactly I am politically, but I am glad to have found someone who can actually articulate his beliefs and isn’t so dogmatic as political pundits tend to be.

    Destiny is generally reasonable but his understanding of linguistics reeks of wiki warrior pseudo intellectualism.
    1. There are different sorts of definitions, the word chair being vague does not necessarily mean the word women is similarly unspecific, why in the world did he think that was analogous? This is like some sort of dishonest slight of hand - to begin with, there are different types of definitions…
    2. Also, did he say that because some words have connotations in addition to their literal meanings, or there are some associated concepts, that words are difficult to define? Which he then uses to basically dodge the question entirely and just accepts nebulous usages of the word women? So, basically, just linguistic anarchy huh ? I feel like I’m watching Vaush.
