I think that there’s two things happening or more even. For one he’s seen the redditors and people on Twitter and shit that participate in politics based solely around slogans. We need to do better than that, if you see people just saying free everything we need to give them actual arguments and make them understand the criticisms that exist and the implications of basically doing away with money and go straight to communism. The other thing is that he has had in the past a lot of arguments with “lefties”, as he calls them, like Mike from Pa who do a bad job arguing and engage in bad faith. He’s also very heavily reliant on sources of information that represent the political consensus of the upper class, the shit we see in the NYT and stuff. Another thing is that any radical changes in society are going to have to bear the burden of proof because all you need to do to defend the status quo is use consensus sources and basically say “ok so things seem relatively stable right now, does this warrant extreme changes?”. The burden of proof is always going to be on us and we have to do better with how rigorous we are about supporting our cases.

Destiny acknowledges and even partly concedes later in the conversation that the policies themselves aren't that radical on their own from a theoretical approach, but due to people's understanding about how taxes work and how there is a lot of misinformation, that this needs to be combatted first. You know what isn't helping 'combat' the misinformation? Destiny going on twitter basically using Ben Shapiro arguments. He's not helping the conversation or the effort to fix the misunderstanding amongst the general public that SDL alludes to (public vs. private spending, etc.). If anything, with comments like "lol why not just make everything free?", he's contributing further to and exasperating the misunderstanding. You can't simultaneously say "these ideas aren't bad it's just that in general people have a misunderstanding of stuff and you need to be careful with your messaging" and then tweet comments that imply that you think the ideas are bad.

The position of cancelling student loans for students in public but not private universities is ridiculous. If anything, private university students need loan cancelling more than public students, as their student loans are significantly higher. There are many good reasons for someone to choose a private university over a public one (location, availability of certain majors, etc.) . The idea that everyone who goes to a private university is filthy rich and therefore doesn't need financial relief is insulting. Destiny's view on this is typical of someone who didn't even finish college.

Yes but there also have been movement in the past that have failed. Just because different political goals were achieved in the past doesn't mean that every political goal will be achieved now. The only way to refute that point that Destiny made was either a) To prove him wrong, aka it actually is politically feasible or b) Say that the political feasability is irrelevant because revolution. Not to mention that a big part of this is cost, it is very costly to make a program universal. Suffrage and civil rights weren't really things that posed a great danger to the economy. Giving everyone free food or free education or free healthcare is very costly - so it's on the person in favour of these things to make an incredibly strong argument as to why they should be universal. Just saying "human rights hurr durr" is a very dumb argument.

His argument is that a blanket cancelling of all student debt (universal) would by and large, just help upper-middle + upper class people since those demographics make up the majority of people who have graduated college. Instead, we should use means testing to focus the money (that we would waste by paying for people that can pay it themselves) on supporting poorer alumni while working to bring the price of college down so more lower-income people can attend.

@@johnnykluch I agree, but I would add that kids that come from families that were poor should also have their debt cancelled, or that should be factored in, to the means testing. Like if a kid came from a family that made 35k a year and is now making 100k because of the college opportunity, their past should be factored in so that more of their debt is cancelled then someone who grew up from a family that made 400k and now makes 100k.

The other guy is saying we should subsidize schools to the point of it being free or near free for students.... We've been HEAVILY subsidizing universities for YEARS through government programs. The first major loans/grants and programs that came from the government started in the 70s and 80s, and it is no surprise that since then the price of a college education has increased 10-fold. If we completely subsidize college I think in the long run we will feel it worse in taxes over the long haul because colleges won't care about cost and will be more concerned about getting as much government aid. Which is ironically a problem with government agencies today. These agencies are given a budget every year, and in order to be in line to get a budget increase for the following year they have to use up all the budget for the current year. This leads to overspending and inefficient use of resources. I'm not saying something shouldn't be done about education, but its not an easy "hey, lets throw more money at the problem and it will fix itself" sort of issue.

I’m not a morning person. I awake and roll over. Then maybe open my eyes for a few and stare at the ceiling, maybe followed by a groan or two. The prospect of another grueling workday looms...sigh. A cascade of random thoughts twinkle through my brain. The reality that many people depend on me to get up and deliver the goods.. To get things done.. Frankly, I’m just not in the mood at that point. The desire to roll back over can be quite strong and if I indulge it just a little, it could be overwhelming.. Everyone has had this experience. Life requires effort. Bleh! At some point I pop up, stretch and begin my very regimented morning ritual. When I am done, I will be charging out the door like a man on fire ready to meet the day. I know how to change my own state of mind. I know how to inspire myself. I wasn’t always that way; it was a learned behaviour. But that feeling is a universal human feeling: the awareness that the burden of life requires effort. It requires work: hard work. This universal truth IS an unpleasant thought. But what if there were a way out of it? What if my needs could be met by someone else, so I wouldn’t have to work so hard? Man that would be great!!! It’s actually a pretty exciting & inspiring thought! Dependency appeals to this universal human urge: that somehow, our needs can be met by someone outside of ourselves. The transition from being a child whose parents meet our needs to an independent adult IS a difficult one. It is painful; it is difficult to accept that your dad and mom will die and cannot take care of you forever. Most cultures acknowledge this chaotic transition in some way. It’s a crucial and vital step in the perpetuation of our species. If the next generation is not self sufficient, we begin the march to extinction, to death. Free Healthcare Free College Free Income The message is: You can continue your childhood. You do not have to feed, clothe, house or heal yourself. Just break from the suckle of your mother and latch to the government and everything will be fine. Life will be paradise. No need to produce anything of value for your fellow human beings. That is a lie of course. Appealing to these instincts is to appeal to the absolute worst of human instincts. Dependency is crippling and debilitating. It arrests the development of those who subscribe to it. The evidence is all around us. Ignorant, narcissistic, infantile children are throwing temper tantrums in our streets. Only these children don’t just throw themselves down on the living room floor and kick their legs and scream. These children burn down cities. Mama’s soft touch is insufficient at this point. It’s daddy time, alpha male time if you will. But for many, no daddy exists. There is no one in life who loves them enough to tell them that they must feed themselves, to slap them out of their delusion. A generation that refuses to feed itself is unsustainable, and will collapse. The collapse is coming, although I do not know what form it will take. There are many forms it could take. It could be a spiritual revival and a rediscovery of fundamental truths and principles. It could be a social or cultural movement of accountability. It could be a violent revolution. But it’s coming.

Political illiteracy is usually not comprehending the political process (it is possible to comprehend how the electoral college while knowing it is messed up). The Bernie or bust is more about a lack of utilitarianism or not knowing the lesser of two evils. Hating Pelosi or Warren is due to having different positions that are fundamental (though I do not get why socialists like the soc dem Bernie instead of rightful reluctance), though they forget they are the least "evil" politicians. The bad faith tactics is probably due to dumbf*** human behavior, such as belief/conformation bias. Populism is dumb, though Marxism (and especially Leninism) is not really populist, but most lefties are not definite (but semi-influenced) Marxists. I would say lefties are politically illiterate for having much stock in the average voter, but I do not think it is dumb to not like policies that have fundamental differences in a utilitarian sense (Vaush is good at this).

The drama with Vaush is just typical bs on the internet (which what I do not like about internet culture). Also, consider that leftists do not always agree on what replace capitalism (or at least the current version of capitalism in the US) let alone how to get there, which is why calling leftists NPCS is laughable to me. I appreciate what you mean by promoting not-so-popular ideas. Destiny comes off as saying any unpopular opinion is not worth delving, though Destiny has plenty of unpopular stances, such as incest. I agree that All Cops are Bastards is silly due to the term ALL which is absolutist claim. Even I think BLM could have better branding with Black Lives Matter Too, as an alternative, but heard BLM was name used for Twitter (which explains the naming issue). It annoys that bad faith is more of inter-personal behavior than arguments (I judge them by YT vids since it is easy to avoid being bad faith when scripted).

Except for the fact that a drugs test is not a form of means testing. The purpose of means testing is to exclude those who are well off enough that they can provide a good or service for themselves without any significant detrimental effect to their living standards (which is why in the US, things like medicaid and food stamps are means tested), hence why means testing is usually done to exclude those who earn over a certain wage, as this is the easiest way to do this. Drugs testing is done just to exclude people who use prohibited substances, so instead of trying to help these people get off drugs and fix their lives, we can instead force them into homelessness, where they then take even more drugs in order to escape not just the usually crappy life they already come from, but in addition the one that has now been made even crappier.

If uniforms are required to attend a school (that should be subsidised so that everyone is given equal access) you don’t get your Jordan’s free! Basic nutritional supply can be given to everyone, this doesn’t cover your Cheetos & Twinkies!

if i call sleep a human right, the government will give me a new bed and a glass of warm milk every night. but seriously, basic food is already extremely subsidized. subsidizing farmers for grains and corn (basics) is heavily subsidized.

@Jason Simmons Yes (currently). I would argue the more educated you the less ignorant one person can be. Destiny is decent at critical thinking (which not taught in schools in general), but Destiny is not educated in things like philosophy, sociology, law, political science, but that is partially because these degrees are next to worthless (so there are economic incentives to avoid them like the plague).

The problem I have with making certain things free is that it disincentives innovation. I think college is the perfect example. College is a shitty educational system I would argue that high school is just as shitty. Why are kids graduating with 0 skills to bring to market? The free market is already responding to this with things like coding boot camps with job guarantees. There are several industries that would benefit from the same kind of educational approaches. Part of the problem is we need society to change how they view education. This will never happen if we continue to try and promote inefficient systems.
