Hasan Piker Debates Michael Knowles for the First Time on "The Issue Is: with Elex Michaelson"

  • They're almost the exact same age, both are web savvy, both live near each other physically, but live on different planets ideologically.
    On the left, Hasan Piker, a progressive, formerly ofThe Young Turks, who now broadcasts via Twitch.
    On the right, Michael Knowles, the conservative who hosts The Michael Knowles Show on The Daily Wire and who co-hosts The Verdict podcast with Senator Ted Cruz.
    This is the first time they've ever debated each other. Here's the unedited feed from "The Issue Is: with Elex Michaelson"
    We begin by talking about the role of government itself in response to the coronavirus.
    “I think that the government has fallen short in nearly every capacity, of course we need to be doing more, I don’t even understand what we could potentially do less than what we’ve done thus far,” Piker said, stressing the need for a moratorium on rents and mortgages, as well the beefing up of unemployment benefits.
    Knowles agreed that the government had responded abysmally, but for a different reason.
    “It’s true, people can’t pay their rent, they can’t pay their rent because they’ve been mandated not to go into work,” Knowles said. “The only way we can possibly get out of this, is to reopen the country, but unfortunately it has become a political issue, frankly I think it’s been a political issue since the beginning.”
    Piker responded that he agrees the country should be reopened, but that there are a lot of issues making that increasingly unsafe, namely people who won’t wear masks or social distance, instead, turning those recommendations into the rallying cry of a social war.
    On that point, Michaelson pressed Knowles, who has called wearing masks a political issue.
    Michaelson, pointing to a May 2020 analysis from the CDC, said masks do not have a significant impact on transmission, and that the science does not support the current political argument being made in their favor.
    “What I’m failing to recognized here, is that Anthony Fauci has corrected himself and said that the reason why he had originally said that masks are a social placebo for the most part is because they were worried about the lack of PPE in this country,” Piker responded, citing the fragile supply of US protective equipment and an over-reliance on Chinese manufacturing.
    “You make a very apt point here… you’re saying the reason that Fauci and other people said what they said about the masks was basically they were lying to preserve the masks for the health care workers,” Knowles shot back. “The issue is the credibility, if he lied to us then, how can we possibly trust him now?”
    From the role of government in regards to the coronavirus, the conversation then shifted to the role of the government in dealing with the ongoing protests.
    This, as President Trump has sent federal agents into Portland, which has experienced nearly two full months of nightly protests and rioting. As crime rates rise in other major cities across the US, the President has indicated he may consider sending more law enforcement into Chicago, Detroit, and Oakland, among others.
    “To put down an insurrection, absolutely, we do need to get federal officials here,” Knowles said.
    “I think this is horrific,” Piker responded. “The idea that we have unmarked paramilitary troops at the federal level, violating the Constitution, and also violating our rule of law that is supposed to protect citizens, especially in a circumstance where they are exercising their First Amendment rights, is disgusting, but also expected from the Trump Administration.”
    The conversation wrapped up with some speculation, specifically regarding who Joe Biden will pick in the coming weeks to serve as his running mate.
    “I don’t care… it really doesn’t matter” Piker said. “Most of these officials are going to do exactly what is best for whichever industry is backing them.”
    Knowles had another suggestion for Biden: Hasan Piker.
    “Age requirements not withstanding, Hasan would be a great pick,” Knowles responded. “You, Hasan, are speaking much more to young, left-wing voters than the Democratic party is, I think it would be much more honest than the Democrats who are trying to hide what they believe.”

Fauci doesn’t seem to think masks do much of anything and neither does Biden when he wears the mask dangling from his ear, not protecting anyone.

      @Europa What Hassan said worked for basically every other country on earth including here in Canada (even adjusting per capita and looking at similar pop density regions like Toronto, Vancouver, etc).
      The reason it’ll never work for the Divided states of America is because you have lizard men politicians who politicized a fucking virus, so half your population is in denial complaining on alt news platforms like UA-cam and the other half is over bearing and hypocritical smiling and nodding at sensationalist news reporting - eliminating any hope your country has at a reasonable solution achieved through mutual cooperation.
      Get vaccinated and drop lockdowns. Increase the variety of vaccines to include older more tested styles (like recombinant protein) to decrease hesitancy, and for fuck sakes get that anti-viral pill that Merck invented on the market. That’s what/will work.

They've ruined small businesses, created the biggest social divide in us history, forced faulty covid treatments (remdesiver/ventilators) while restricting treatments that work (ivermectin/monoclonal antibodies,etc), enforced useless mandates that ONLY created division and little protection, they never once mentioned how to keep healthy(zinc, d, c, etc), they have used and allowed EOs for political signaling on a level that will go down in history as the greatest abuse of power in our generation. They STILL use Fauci (no explanation needed). They have not done ONE thing right and he wants them do do more of what they do SO TERRIBLY. (Sorry....but that's a typical liberal for you....)

      Hasan is the embodiment of group think. The individual ability to think for him or herself is repressed to accommodate the group. Usually, the group narrative is controlled by those who control our mainstream science, media, education and politics which have alternative motives. That's why "democratic socialism" sounds like a wonderful idea to those who think like Hassan, but its a trojan horse which the federal government, central banks and corporations will have ALL the control.

      The truth is that ideology is the start of losing grip on reality. The further you follow ideology rather than facts/evidence/results, the further you drift into unreality. This can happen on either side, and at times in history, one side tends to be more out of touch than another. We see that in many cases, the left, in general, is now drifting too far into ideology.

      You gotta understand that everyone gets offended, that's human nature. It's what you do in response that matters. Since the mainstream right has taken the clearly stronger position on free speech, they may not like something but they will never ask for It's removal, for eg from college campuses which the left is famous for doing.
      Furthermore the left has gotten more snowflake like as they have gotten younger through the decades, while the right has gotten less snowflake mainly because of religion not being as dogmatic as intersectionality. Victim worship on left is more sacred than God worship on right.

      2. The vaccine didnt stop contraction or spread, it merely lessened the symptoms for people (Which is a testament to its effectiveness)

Covid and the Flu are not the same. Covid is more contagious and spreads from a different virus which are two variables not used in that report because it is only about Influenza. That could effect things. And if Covid is easier to spread it would not make masks less effective if the basis for Influenza is to not wear them in the first place.

Now I know this is not humans and covid but the problem is that not everyone has a fitted sealed and fresh mask on. To my knowledge that is the issue with telling people masks work, they come to believe it will work regardless of what the mask is made of, how clean it is and how well fitted it is, plus the false sense of security can lead to a more lax attitude for other simple measures like washing hands and staying a distance from others.
