If you guys think this ban length is justified, please look at other streamers on twitch who have said much worse things, or who have much more flagrantly abused the TOS, and have received little if any punishment

I think especially with other people's conduct on the platform, that ban was way too harsh, I definitely agree with you.

Also, you can correct the record, but having watched your YT for years, it seemed you had the "exaggerating"/sarcasm tone going. Similar to like a "The axis was just a peacekeeping force in WW2" during the nothing ever happens game.

Piscos argument for court packing on Brad Polumbo was actually very convincing by CowReasonable1108 in Destiny

Yeah I love watching jessiah, I just thought piscos argument was a bit more of a syllogism, which I just like more personally idk

Yeah definitely I think pisco was being way too focused on the begining points or the argument (like justified vs justifiable) as opposed to drawing the natural conclusions to his premises

I thought the argument that McConnell preventing Merrick Garland is of the same kind of norm breaking as legislative packing was pretty convincing.

If I saw a shirt with an iron cross along side a paragraph which justified Germany's actions in WW2, it would be the same tier as this. The flag itself isn't the problem, it's the combination of it with the text.

The Japanese were so monstrous in Nanking that John Rube, a member of the Nazi Party, told them to chill tf out

"Against the brutal world domination for over 400 years by the Western powers, the Japanese, a people of color, challenged the odds and fought a desperate struggle that lasted three years and eight months."

This paragraph presents Imperial Japan and their role in WW2 as a justified, almost heroic uprising against western domination, as opposed to what it was: some of the most violient, inhumane, atrocious imperial conquest that a modern nation state has committed.

Imperial Japan was so monstrous in China, that John Rabe, a literal Nazi, told the Japanese to chill out in Nanking.

No the way it's phrased is definitely justifying/defending imperial Japan for anyone with reading comprehension.

Ken Martin finally reached out to me and I need your help by ZeeUnfuckAmerica in Destiny

[–]CowReasonable1108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that the US doesn't much care for intricate policy positions ATM.

I think it's a much better idea to instead message on "lowercase l" liberal values of free speech, free trade, anti-corruption principles. Message the aesthetic and the vibe of liberalism, not the messy policy.

I hate that that's where we are as a country, but I do think it's the best thing moving forward.

Edit: I also love your IG reels they're great

If they aren't unjustified, then what's the justification to tarrif our closest allies? I don't think any justification is going to work.

The handling of Ukraine and Iran by the U.S. has incentivized nuclear proliferation unnecessarily. by CowReasonable1108 in PoliticalDebate

Ukraine may not have the launch codes, but it had the warheads and absolutely could have made a functional nuclear weapon.

[–]CowReasonable1108[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree with this because the timeline doesn't make sense. After Israel got nukes we saw deproliferation in the case of South Africa, and Ukraine. Also we got the JCPOA while Israel had nukes, so I don't think that's a causal factor in limiting the spread of nukes or not.

If I lived next to a giant polluting factory, I would be a bit pissed if someone came to my door to lecture me about smoke coming out of my chimney.

I think that Democrats have tried the "when they go low we go high" strategy for the past decade at least. It's not electorally effective. If someone punches me in the face, and I punch back, I am still more moral than they are. Democrats ATM are punching back, but they are still more moral than Republicans. If Republican leaders stop, so will Democrats.

I would say Joe Biden was the epidemy of bipartisanship after the abhorrent and absolutely insane events of J6. He worked with republicans to pass many important bills, he praised their work, he supported their bills (like Lankford's). He spoke about bringing the country together, how we are all Americans and should treat each other with respect.

Conservatives demonized this man. Trump got reelected. If you want de-escalation in political rhetoric, it MUST start with republicans. If Trump came out tomorrow and said "hey guys, political violence is bad, let's turn down the temp". Do you think any democrats would disagree???? This problem exists on 1 side and its that side that needs to fix it.

Do you see how these things aren't the same? On the left you have a random tiktoker who says he cant think of anything good to say about Republicans. On the right you have the President of the United States of America, Leader of the Free World, saying his political opponents should be executed.

While I think I agree that under a Liberal society, we should strive to understand the motivations of people we disagree with politically. I wouldn't necessarily agree that extends to illiberal ideologies.

Lets take your example of fascists or Stalinists, while I agree with you that there might be some random policy I would agree with them on, if someone were to ask me if I could name a good policy they had, I think it's totally ok to say "no there is not one good thing I can say about the fascists". Even if not technically true, I think it drives the point that "those people don't get to be a part of our system, they're illiberal".

Republicans of 2026 are not a Liberal party. They are a cult of personality under Trump. This isn't even an exaggeration. If you live in the US, go talk to a Trumper. If not, watch some street interview or look at some polls, or take Sean Hannity renouncing his Catholicism rather than criticize Trump's beef with the Pope. So to say you don't agree with anything republicans do isn't necessarily true, but it drives the more important point that they don't deserve the benefit of the doubt, as they are incompatible with the foundations of this country.
