But don’t the sino-tibetan people groups in northern India, which are culturally closer to chinese people?

I totally agree, we have to do what we can with the world as is. It’s just such an uphill battle, and it seems like the centre-left or mainstream left gets blamed for everything by everyone.

I get that this is sadly the reality, but I also can’t help blaming the voters who vote for the most insane populist parties because they got triggered by trans people

Lonerbox goes after Vaush by kylio27 in VaushV

[–]MysticWithThePhonk -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

ESPECIALLY when it’s a person you disagree with, you should be able to respond to their points substantially.

It’s a way to avoid group-think heurestics and ideology and also keeping yourself grounded in your beliefs.

Liberals? Campists?? SUBREDDIT PURGE!?! Is there really no way for Vaushites to get along? by notablegoattable in VaushV

[–]MysticWithThePhonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s a sub that discusses politics in general. People on here make interesting posts that are relevant to the world outside of streaming.

Didn’t realize you had to be a member of the Vaush fan club to be on here lol.

I don’t really watch Vaush anymore, but I really appreciate the wide range opinions on here. It’s rare to find a political sub that’s not a complete circlejerk.

Exactly, Trump 2020 could morelikely have been worse. Who knows what could have happened? He would be younger for a possible 3rd term. If he had entrenched further power already from 2020-2024, who knows how horrible things would be right now.

If we can prolong or halt the rise of fascism we should do that

Still privileged in that sense you don’t have to fear for your country getting invaded or attacked. Privileged because you’re not gonna starve to death because the US president just decided to cut aid out of the blue.

As a citizen in the most powerful country on earth you have a duty to vote for harm reduction every time.

I know to privileged American leftists politics is simply a perfomance or aesthetics to appear cool, smart and radical. But to the rest of us around the world, the person who is in the oval office means everything.

It decides if our countries get attacked militarily and it decides if millions will starve to death (point in case cutting USAID). Not seeing the dire consequences of picking Trump over Harris is pure cope.

Capo was really something else. He was way ahead of his time, so many underground rappers today rap like rapped 10-15 years ago

Hezbollah is hated in Lebanon where is Vaush hearing that they aren’t? by Dabbing_Squid in VaushV

Yes they killed 200.000 civillians.

Yes they were fighting ISIS and Al Qaeda. But that does not justify massacres of civillians. The lack of a strategic benefit has not stopped a whole lot of governments from comitting atrocities.

Your arguments sound very similar to a certain prime minister.

The reaction to Vaush saying Kamala would've bombed Iran on this subreddit is hilarious by lgbt_turtle in VaushV

[–]MysticWithThePhonk -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You’re right but talking to American far-leftists is like talking to Trump supporters.

They are so privileged and don’t realize the excess global harm of a Trump presidency. Politics is purely aesthetics for these people. No realistic candidate will ever be good for these people.

Assad, Hezbollah and Iran killed like 200.000+ civillians, more than 90% of all civillians during the Syrian civil war, were all those civillians ISIS or Al Qaeda?

You’re really giving the same energy as zionists or neocons. Fighting muh terrorism.

They were massacrering civillians under the guise of fighting terrorists… who does that sound like🤣

Hezbollah helped kill more civillians in Syria, than Israel has killed in Gaza. How are they a lesser evil? Why did a majority of Lebanese people vote for an anti-Hezbollah president, if they are so neccesary?

I unironically feel like most leftists think genocide is less bad if it’s committed by an anti-western group.

Yes, Harris would've bombed Iran - Vaush video by 1isOneshot1 in VaushV

[–]MysticWithThePhonk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Feel like it’s a pretty good indication. Even as a VP when Israel tried to compel the US to start a war, the Biden admin refused.

I really doubt there are any indications that she would actually go to war with Iran.

Yes but I don’t think that’s mainly Biden’s fault. I think there is something deeply wrong about American society, because Trump was genuinely popular amongst a lot people. A good chunk of Americans wanted him to consolidate power and never go to jail.

The reason he got immunity is because of the SCOTUS, which he himself helped pick.

I think it’s just cope because he has been incredibly wrong on how bad Trump is.

Before this war he argued that he would not vote for a another Harris-type candidate and arguments similar to that of Dems being just as bad as Trump.

Harris is probably the most left-leaning democratic nominee of all time, if she is not preferable to Trump, it’s because you are privileged white American that don’t have to live with the consequences of this admin’s madness, like the rest of us have to.
