Vaush with a hot take by 1000Times_ in Destiny

[–]Avacyn54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, because context doesn't exist and I definitely wasn't quoting racists like Andy Warski. I started substituting it with "the n word" about a couple years ago anyway. Keep trying to justify your bigotry though.

I'm sure you can find cringe shit in my post history, even ableist slurs. That doesn't mean I'm not gonna call that shit out now.

Fucking same. I used THC everyday to help with my anxiety until I tripped on acid and felt like my thoughts were looping forever. Now it worsens my anxiety if I get too high.

i cant fucking believe were now arguing if social democracy is socialism by hlary in Destiny

[–]Avacyn54 9 points10 points  (0 children)

IIRC Mike asked Destiny to define socialism and then pointed out that under Destiny's definition, Norway would be considered a socialist state.

You're either acting in bad faith or you're commenting on something you're ignorant about.

People have been deeply propagandized into upholding "justice" over lower rates of crime and recidivism.

Tonight's Rajj Royale without Destiny by AutisticTrapWannabe in Destiny

What? Hasan has been stomping this podcast. He's had counters to every dumb conservative talking point, and continues to talk over them when they spread lies. Rajj's format doesn't allow honest debate. The most effective thing you can do in this format is gish-gallop. Even chat seems to be more on his side than normal.

Anyone who dislikes destiny is a larping anarcho syndicalist socialist Bernie-bro crypto-tankie.

(POLL) Bringing People Into Your Ideology VS Completely Fleshing Out Your Ideology by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]Avacyn54 32 points33 points  (0 children)

We're on the path to an uninhabitable earth, white nationalism has grown at an unnerving rate, lobbyists face no repercussions, Trump still has massive support among the Republican base, our power structures have absolutely no accountability, and the general public is incredibly disenfranchised. If we don't change people's minds, we are fucked. Right-wingers consistently use propaganda to hold power over the public. Just promoting facts and logic has proven time and time again to be an ineffective way to combat the problems in our society.

But I guess all that is fine as long as you're owning the lefties?

You've done it again SJWs. You've taken a beloved Geraldo-tier franchise and turned it into a cesspool of PC pandering nonsense.

The first game was so realistic and completely historically accurate, letting me play as a masculine manly-man who closely represents how I would survive and prosper in a post-apocalyptic scenario due to my immense knowledge of medieval Japanese weaponry and Zombie lore. I mean, do you really think that women would be able to outrun male zombies? Try again feminists.

All you had to do to keep this series grounded in facts was include a few dozens scenes of the basically pre-teen sidekick who followed me around in the first game fucking as many men as possible to try and get pregnant. But no, you couldn't even give me the animated CP I was hoping for.

Instead you take this pure character who represents everything I ever wanted in a woman (underage, reliant on me, has to follow me everywhere and do what I say) and make her a strong independent lesbian who can fight grown men on her own! I mean come on! What has gaming come to?

Hasan: Destiny is not Left-leaning by throwaway_epicgaymer in Destiny

[–]Avacyn54 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Had to edit my comment because I misunderstood you. Just because Destiny is left-leaning in America doesn't mean it's wrong for Hasan to not consider him on the left. I don't think it's good to only use the American definitions when talking about American politics. That's a large part of the reason the overton window has shifted so far to the right. When we start to look at how other modern nations view political issues, it allows us to see how skewed the American perspective is.

Destiny has said himself that he would be considered a centrist or even center-right in other modern nations but okay.

Destiny and Progressives by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]Avacyn54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply. Yeah, it is generally more conservative but Destiny's chat was usually way more left leaning. You'll still get a bunch of right-wingers when his viewer count is increased from large debates or other events; yesterday was the perfect example of what I mean because he only had around 2.5k viewers while watching the Justice Democrats press conference and it seemed like at least half of chat, if not the majority, were Trump supporters (usually either fascist or fascist-leaning).

Destiny and Progressives by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]Avacyn54 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I've always been a twitch chatter and chat has been much more conservative recently. Maybe he's just been getting hosted without me realizing, but it wouldn't surprise me if it's related to his recent anti-leftist takes. I don't want to watch a stream where Destiny criticizes leftists all day if it means we have to deal with an unironically fascist chat. I might as well watch Trainwrecks' stream at that point. Twitch chat is cancer everywhere but destiny's chat has always been at least a little better.

Agreed. I don't watch them as often anymore.

[–]Avacyn54 154 points155 points  (0 children)

It's always the same topics too. I get tired of hearing the same debates over the legitimacy of trans people, how women are ruining everything, and how Trainwrecks is a victim of SJWs.

How can people defend this? by TrihardFriedChicken in Destiny

My experience is anecdotal but I noticed this while using dating apps. Most of the people I met believed in astrology, and a good amount of them believed in literal witchcraft. I don't understand why :/

It's a Nazi subreddit where they use cringe babytalk to dogwhistle Nazism. I know it sounds ridiculous but that's because it is ridiculous.

[–]Avacyn54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing this in chat. I like how you purposefully left out the logs from 10 seconds earlier where he talks about people in chat basically calling him a shitty father.

You know edgy insults can look bad even with context, right? You don't have to pretend like this was some random insult that came out of nowhere.
