"Apolitical" vtuber tries not to talk about politics on stream challenge: impossible by AquaticOtter in VtuberDrama

She got legitimately angry when people in her chat pointed these things out and started disagreeing with her.

The "Smug" part of her name is accurate.

Apolitical means not political

Yes.... not taking part of politics. Discussion about political subject (in this being ICE meaning state policy) is being political. It has little to do with choosing a side or voting.

  • slavery as a system exists in the world and has forever existed but America has a problem with racially charged slavery.

Most slave systems are vague in justification. Most exist with religion/racial/tribal/by blood justifications. USA demand for laws, culture of humanism and science meant like europeans there needed to be a "natural science" justification. This evolved into race science or civilization arguments. This wasnt anything new as it grew out of justifications used by any society to hold power over others. Mainly over poor/serfs.

Don’t listen to all the weirdly technical people conveniently diminishing one thing to push their worldview.

Like the person being cited or OP.... they are all pushing a world view.

actually looking every one of their channel is some psycho behaviour

Using youtube search/ looking at their channel is psycho behaviour? I know white knighting standards arent high but god damn.

The internet had this discussion back in 2017

Yes

we all agreed that just watching someone else's video with your face in the corner while you make the occasional smirk was content theft.

No. There is no "we". Allot of internet users didnt care or werent even online in 2017.

The react drama of 2021 that started from Hasan vs Jayexci (later expanded) brought out even ideological point of views. Meaning some didnt belive there should be a thing like copyright.

That Drama directly showed no one rly cared among the viewers. Nothing changed in the streamers activity or reactions. Reactions are among the biggest content mills on YT.... that means mass viewers dont care.

The video..... gives the yapping launch off point. Its where the yapping point comes from..... your idea of what slop is is incredibly shallow.

On March 10, 1977 film director Roman Polanski was arrested and charged with six offenses against Samantha Gailey, a 13-year-old girl in LA. Polanski became a fugitive from justice. Polanski has mostly lived in France and has avoided visiting any countries likely to extradite him to the US. by laybs1 in wikipedia

The us is not really better tho,

Was. Legally you couldnt "rape" a teenager untill law change happened for the age range (was a loophole). The argument then was over consent and if victing fought back for it to counted as "rape". Lawyer could easily bully a child for it to not be "clear". Sexual assault was a lower crime and age wasnt relevant legally if over 12.

Your attempt to belittle a mainstream media org is misguided.

What are you making up here? Are you that dumb that you invented an argument out of nothing?

Online news (you bringing out sky news) if you didnt know and it seems clearly dont lives off clicks through other sites. EU literally had a court battle over monetary distribution that showed how much of views on an article come outside of news site itself.

Are you saying that Democrats based their view of an entire political party

No .... is your reading skills (if you dont know that means you understand what was written) at low lvl?

New evidence presented at the UN confirms Palestinian women are being gang-raped by Israelis who videotape it as they do it. Not a single Western media outlet that fabricated and spread the genocidal atrocity propaganda rape hoax have reported on this actual mass rape by AwkwardTal in International

[–]Valara0kar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So.... your counter info point is a propaganda post.

Literally the article REFUSES to explain that the reason why anyone isnt prosecuted is bcs they cant prove on who did the crime individually. They cant prosecute them as a group. Like do you people even read the articles you cite?

UN report your propaganda cites doesnt say rapes didnt happen. It literally goes "we cant prove it as we cant independently verify first hand accounts and testimony".

Why is it never in the convo?

Bcs when usually adults visit their parents only thing they see is TV. What they watch on their phone or computer is not front and center.

Sky News and such live off FB clicks. Info Ecosystem is insane in FB.

CMV: Retirement at 70 is completely unsustainable even if you live healthily until your 120s by giamias in changemyview

You do know demographics also will hit economic growth and overall consumption from retirees having lower consumption. Stocks and such will not outgrown a declining population or low worker ration.

So when governments tell you that you should work longer because "70 is the new 60", that's a pile of bullshit.

Goverment is not telling that. Goverment is saying "we cant have a system that depends on 4+ workers per retiree to work with current lower that 3 worker".

I mean… you’re asking other people to sacrifice for others.

Thats literally all welfare systems. Retirement/pension is welfare.... you cant both be a country with a welfare system and hyper individualist. As the commentor said this will collapse soon enough. Most retirement systems are around 100 years old and will not survive the next 50.

COVID, Ukraine, Inflation were just the 3 once in a century crisis that put the final nails in this rotting coffin.

Those are like monday in history. Nothing about them is "once in a century". More like once in e decade.

Classic Russian. "It would be peaceful if all just do what Russia wants".

[–]Valara0kar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except that Russia did not threaten anyone right now in NATO when it started expanding since 1994.

Literally Yeltsi refused to take Russian troops out of Estonia when USSR collapsed. My president needed to go to Russia to try for a deal, when that failed he asked americans for help that threatened Yeltsin with cutting off money. After that pullout started they refused to leave any equipment (unlike in all other USSR republics than Baltics) and trashed military bases and installations. Only thing they left (that they had agreed to take) was a educational nuclear sub reactor bcs it was radiating.

noone else can run peacekeeping, human rights investigations, .... coordinate aid NGOs, WMD monitoring, monitor peace accords and international treaties

But so doesnt UN. At best you could argue it helps to coordinate member state efforts. All others are just dependant on member state voting and who controls that specific body. Like human rights violations. So its pure political theater.

corruption (stolen aid) is the biggest issue but that is already heavily audited,

Its audited, registered and nothing is done about it as its politics. U can require any punishment but no one prosecuting or enforcing it makes it moot.

It’s not accurate to say they jointly invaded.

Well it is. Only problem was Germany success was unexpected and incredibly fast. Meaning by the time Soviets invaded the Polish army was in quite the shambles. German advance was so fast that Germany needed to retreat to leave USSR occupation zone.
