Asmon is the definition of audience capture. He didn't want to shed the Trump supporters and, within a few years, their insufferable room-temp-IQ takes have made any moderate viewers leave. Now his chat is primarily MAGA, his subreddit which he uses as react content is primarly right-wing anti-woke obsession, and he's effectively lost his role in OTK. The moderate viewers who stopped watching him can't trust him to stay rational in the future, and straying from his current right-wing grift means losing what audience he has left. His only choice is to continue in this direction or do a 180 that would effectively reset his streaming career.

[@eanfran]

I'm someone who regularly takes the bus in my American city and just happen to live near a bus stop for busses that actually come semi frequently. Even for me, taking the bus is only BARELY worth it compared to paying for parking near my job (job is downtown and requires paid parking), and paying to maintain my car with gas and repairs on top. It takes me bare minimum 20 minutes to get to my job, meaning its a minimum 40 minute commute for what would be a 20 minute daily commute time with a car. At very worst it could be more than an hour spent walking to the bus stop, waiting 20 minutes for a bus if I'm unlucky that day, doing a 15 minute commute, and then walking from the bus stop to my job. Now imagine I live literally anywhere else in town, and it goes from the bus being slightly more convenient to basically impossible. If I still lived at my parents who live in the suburbs, It goes from a max of like 45 minutes to get to work to like almost 2 hours if you're really unlucky. Suburban busses in most cities only come every hour and if the time it is supposed to show up is inconvenient (or God forbid the bus comes slightly sooner than its supposed to) you're SOL for an entire HOUR. You're understating how inconvenient and time consuming taking public transit in the US is. The reason basically only poor people take the bus is because its the only economic option, but it eats into HOURS of your life when you add it up. This is not to mention that most public transits only serve to get people to and from a central location. Not everyone works in a downtown, meaning your hour long single bus ride turns into a several hour affair if you have to transit between different bus stops.

[@Xabraxas]

Sometimes Destiny's fanbase reveals their youth and privilege. It would blow some of their minds that it was pretty common for working class people to not have health insurance before the ACA. I didn't have health insurance from 22-32 and I couldn't really care less at the time compared to the need for a car. I broke my hand during the time span and had to go to the emergency room. That's how people survived sickness or injury. They just bill you and most just never pay it because they can't afford to. As for the public transportation argument, Destiny is mostly right. Most cities don't have adequate public transportation however I live in the Northeast and people do commute on buses from the suburbs. The system here to get people from the suburbs to the city is pretty good overall. I have never been to a city outside of the Northeast that is even close to the level of service here though. I wouldn't be surprised if the Chicago area is similar but I just don't know anough about the area.

[@pookz3067]

If you live in nyc or Boston you live in unique miracles of cities for the US in terms of public transport (and the majority of other metrics lol). Chicago is worse, it still ok. LA is abysmal. All the smaller cities are even worse, except those close to nyc/boston.

[@02Lemonhead]

Agree. I was raised and lived the first 39 years of my life in NYC. I did not own a car. If anything, most New Yorkers living within the 5 boroughs considered it an expensive appliance. When I moved to Los Angeles to work, I lived for 4 years without a car. I bussed, biked and carpooled to work assignments. When I finally could afford it, I bought a used car. If your nature is to be a problem solver, have thought plasticity, you can find solutions for your situation. Problem is Americans in general drank the Kool Aid and believe you just can't survive that way in a car dominated culture. Destiny's thoughts are sometimes skewed due to Wheat Belt Blindness and being on the spectrum. Hopefully more Americans will find other solutions for their life situation and we can steer away from this destructive car culture.

[@MsHojat]

Pretty much every single city has "adequate" public transportation to get by. It's crap public transportation but it still _works;_ tons of people still use them to get around. Taking an extra hour to get somewhere does not make a system unusable. For that matter the system would be better if more people chose to use it more often instead of never supporting it due to using personal vehicles. For healthy people of working age public transport isn't even the only option. They can use ride hail services and/or use a bicycle or even a powered small vehicle such as a scooter/e-bike. Some people might argue that they live to far away from where they work, but that was their own stupid choice, and it was not necessary; different work is an option, as-is different place to live. It won't necessarily be as-good a life, but even if cars were required for long distance travel (which they are not), one wouldn't be dying or suffering by choosing a crappier closer place to live or a crappier closer place to work. Without good health care people _can_ suffer and die; or get treated but then suffer significantly in life due to the crippling debt.

[@pookz3067]

@thelightwielderwell yeah, no population level differences are do to aggregate of individuals just happening to pick the “wrong” lifestyle choice. People trying to out this on the contingent of “lazy” people is idiotic as such explanations literally never explain differences at such scale.

Saying ‘everyone wants what we got’ With no healthcare is wild As a canadian i feel sorry for the anti trumpers that get run over by the gargantuan shortbus that is the GOP

Every first world country has been laughing at the US healthcare situation, but he'll still convince his followers that they're all jealous. Just like how the entire world was calling him a clown on foreign policy, but now magatards actually believe the exact opposite.

[@Bloink]

The healthcare "system" ALONE is enough for me and literally every single person I have ever spoken to about the US and the healthcare situation to refrain from moving there.

What is destiny smoking on this car transportation shit? I've had 2 jobs and 6 locations I've had to go to berween to both of them. For my first job it was about 45 mins to and from, but the 2nd job and 5 locations I've had to go to I'm able to get to work consistently and home in a timely manner with public transportation. Does destiny know how many people take public transportation to work? I'm aware many people drive even low income people, but many MANY people take PT

[@jigbuuls2322]

It's really not that many people that take public transport. You can look it up about 70% of Americans use a car to commute.

[@Dragno666]

Ive tried to do the same before, with one job, and public transport took me 4 hours round trip. It doesnt work for everyone.

[@MsHojat]

He's completely out of touch. Yes North America's car-focused design and car culture is trash, and yes many cities (probably not even most cities) do have bad public transit systems, but all the bad public transit systems are all still fully functional systems that tons of people live and breathe by. It's literally a skewed view of reality by going off of what he hears, how bad he hears things are for people without automobiles. I'm surprised that he doesn't know anyone without an automobile who lives in a city with poor public transit.

[@MsHojat]

@@jigbuuls2322 Nobody gave a specific number. 30% _IS_ "many MANY" people. What is your point? 30% taking public transport is proof that people can rely on it. The vast majority of people could rely on it if they had to, they just have the money and selfishness to want to save time by using a personal automobile instead. This sort of thing does result in a tragedy of the commons though. There is some type of work that simply requires an automobile, but nobody -NOBODY- is forced to do that work. There are many people who also live very far away from their work. And very few or none of them were actually forced to live at that far away location and work far away. They could have chose to live closer to work or work closer to home. People don't do that because they have their automobile already, and they have and use their car because they don't care enough about the commons.

[@Dragno666]

@@MsHojat He just literally showed the statistics. What are you on about? Also I used to use public transport before I got my car at 33 years old. Public transport was literally when I had no other options. It is not an option I would ever point to otherwise. That isnt a glowing recommendation. Destiny is 100% right.

[@SupremeSign]

I think Asmongold is an idiot and is completely audience captured, but Destiny is being uncharitable on his takes to the point of just being contrarian. Destiny seems to do this frequently to anyone who doesn't immediately align with his preconceived opinions. Also, you absolutely can just repeatedly go to the ER due to EMTALA; this is a serious issue, especially at county/state run facilities.

[@WanderTheNomad]

Destiny's been a bit more highstrung about disagreements from the right ever since the attempted Trump assassination

[@tarfielarchelone2674]

Top 3 examples

[@Nahtan.9758]

this is just so not true, he's very charitable to people and has been to asmongold until he's become more extreme recently

[@tonytagliatelle9225]

He has been the opposite of charitable especially earlier on while Asmon has said nothing negative about Destiny ​@Nahtan.9758

[@MsHojat]

Agreed; Asmongold is a center aligned person politically with some syncretic views as most center people are. Destiny seems to just go contrarian on all of it just because he hears _some_ opposed views. That said, I do also agree that Asmongold has been promoting -or at least platforming- a lot of Trump stuff (and somewhat related anti-woke video game stuff) recently, and it's been too much and sometimes oddly too supportive of it. I agree with Destiny overall on most things, but I disagree with his contrarian take he seems to have with Asmongold, and also with Destiny's -in my opinion out of touch and erroneous- view on how important having a personal automobile is (namely compared to health care)

Healthcare over car lol no car, walk, subway, buses, bike , Uber, car pool, lfyt, cab, work from home, electric scooters, car service. Silly take

[@AcSlaytah56]

Notice how destiny gets real quiet and moves on when asmon makes a point he agrees with. hes not reacting because hes engaging with what asmon says, hes for the first time in my eyes purely chasing asmon for clout/views. This last year has really drove destiny in a really crappy direction and its extremely difficult to watch him act like this petulant rage baby.

[@hunterboyo]

I caught on to that too

[@Cettywise]

Most people are healthy but you'll need healthcare at some point in your life. People get sick and accidents happen. If you were born or gave birth in a hospital, vaccinated, wear prescription glasses or had any dental work done you're participating in our healthcare system. This stuff isn't hard, it should be there if and when you need it.

[@QualityQman]

Serious question here. I really want to support universal healthcare. I'm not trying to start a debate. I really want to know how you reconcile poor health and treatments for people who are self destructive and refuse to put any effort into improving their health? There is something unethical or immoral about others having to pay for that person's poor decisions. Meanwhile, others watch their diet, exercise regularly, etc. They tend to live long healthy lives. Yet, they are on the hook to pay for irresponsible people. However, I completely agree that the current healthcare system is a complete price gouge and shakedown of regular Americans. Seems like we need to figure out a balance between these two extremes.

[@Cettywise]

@QualityQman it's immoral and unethical NOT to treat people that are sick. We don't leave people who self harm bleeding in the bathtub, we do our best to help them. 😐

[@QualityQman]

@@Cettywise Should we force people to eat properly and exercise then? You're not really addressing the core of my conundrum.

[@Cettywise]

@QualityQman bro, think whatever you want. I don't have all the answers 😘

[@QualityQman]

@Cettywise no problem. Thank you for your input regardless. One love.

[@danielbaulig]

The real difference between car insurance and health care is that the „worst case“ scenario for health care is you bankrupt yourself and then die while the worst case for driving a car is *someone else* goes bankrupt and then dies. This is why liability insurance (and only that) is actually *required*.

[@rebelmango2141]
