  • That leftism is a product of ressentiment from people who don’t have “things” against people who have “things”, I guess. ContraPoints-level take tbh.

    I hate billionaires, not because I want to be a miserable sociopath with too much money, but because they are largely the reason that any kind of improvement to our planet and species is being blocked. I support socialized healthcare, not because I envy those who have the money to pay for life-saving healthcare, but because I don’t want to fucking die, etc. etc.

    There certainly are people like BadEmpanada, who oppose unions and welfare so that “first-worlders can suffer”, but they definitely don’t reflect what leftism is in general.

  • I kinda enjoy it too, but Rudeus is just such a pos, and the writer probably is as well. I was so happy that we were getting nice, non-fetishistic Eris-focused episodes for the new season, but as of episode 3 we’re back to square one with this person 🤦‍♀️.

    Edit:

    …but that show I probably fast forward scenes more than any other…

    Glad I’m not alone in this :D

    they already won by getting a platform to debate in the first place

    They certainly didn’t. The reason why we are in this position in the first place is that the scientific community has ignored these charlatans for so long. Science communicators like Professor Dave actively working to dismantle the talking points of these figures works to at least make it possible for science-minded people to be able to defend their ideas more easily, make it so that people unsure about these topics stop considering conspiratorial views, and just maybe make people deep in the conspiracy theory at least be unable to sleep at night thinking about what they’ve heard. This stuff does actually help people.

    Their ideas do not deserve the respect of being on an equal stage with the scientific consensus.

    Yes, that’s why they should get humiliated publicly in exchanges like this.
