He's stated multiple times that he doesn't read books
>>24810923>The Problems of PhilosophyOverrated crap, just read Hume>I gave up after a couple pagesDid you give up on it or did Destiny? Because it's a very cool and thought-provoking read.
>>24811252Just like he's demonstrated multiple times that he's a complete idiot.
>>24811257Just like his butt buddies Asmon and Hasan. Do these react tubers do anything worthwhile besides their usual inane rambling? What a bunch of silly geese.
>>24811275>Do these react tubers do anything worthwhile besides their usual inane rambling?he sucks dick and makes revenge porn
>>24811275He dislikes both of them
>>24811257What's he wrong about?
>>24810923>There's also "An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding", but I gave up after a couple pageswhy is he recommending it then?
>>24811401He's a devout Zionist and serves only to defend the Democratic party
>>24811401Thinking that expulsion isn't built into Zionism when Benny Morris wrote that it was in one of his books and that if the Palestinians had only accepted the partition plan proposed by the UN, they'd still have a nation.
>>24811403>>24811407Oh, you guys are tankies. That's cringe and gay. There will not be peace until from the River to to Sea Kaya is running free.
>>24811401Imagine thinking you can be right about the meaningless and unknowable shit he's made a career on
>>24811464>anti-Israel = tankielolwhat
>>24811471True, imagine having a triple digit iq. That's unpossible.>>24811472You could have separated yourself from the pack by throwing in a few slurs so I can get a better bearing. Tiny gnome has a lot of enemies.
>>24811481Most people who focus on politics are too stupid to focus on things that require abstract reasoning, like math or science or even music or linguistics.A subset of those are even stupider in that they genuinely believe they have found the answer to the unanswerable questions that lie therein.Destiny is their mouthpiece.
>>24811507That's a cute reddit spacer. Just like every undergrad in the history of time he too has figured out life top down with his head movie as the focal point and is ready to tell us all about it.. Make an explicit claim or take your pseud musing somewhere else.
>>24811525I've made many claims in those two posts, but apparently not direct enough for you to recognize them, which just proves my point.Enjoy your distractions.
>>24811481Imagine trying to respond seriously to someone who says "from the River to to Sea Kaya is running free". Pure nonsense.
>>24811531lol, lmao. Two chopsticks stuck in sand being held together by spit have more structural integrity than you. You think saying others are stupid because I can abstract was a point worth saying? That's a take every midtwit in existence has at least thought once.>>24811548>n-no jokes allowedThat's just a brittle spirit. Plus, anyone who is not tankie would either laugh or ignore the joke instead of crying about it.
>>24811560nta but what do you get out of the cp guy
>>24811585The memes are great, plus I've been terminally online for a long time. With the lore downloaded it's fun reality tv. Also, he's unironically fighting for liberalism which I think is based. The KF arc has been very shit. Ever since Lav and Mr.Girl season villains have been whack ngl.
>>24811606does it not matter to you that he's so incredibly ineffective?
>>24811611I genuinely despise the optics cucks. Ever since booksmarts people want to believe in his ability to convert audiences because they've seen him do it so they believe if he was less edgy and more focused on modes of persuasion rather than seeking out the spicy memes then he'd break through to a new level. I think that's fucking retarded and after watching him for years try and fail I wish he would unleash the demon, unironically.
>>24811560Ok last one. If you think there are answers in politics (and especially youtube political debate lol) after oh, 300 years of debating this slop, then you are one or a combination of three things: biased and bad faith about a feel-good position you probably discovered in college and never questioned, dumb enough to think a debated topic has a universal or absolute truth to it AND THAT YOU HAVE FOUND IT (lol), or so unwell read you are unaware your beliefs have already been countered dozens of times by far superior brains to you or some combination of all three.It's fucking hella ironic you're accusing the messenger of these things here as the one being the biased, unread, midwit.There is no answer to these questions bro, Destiny has convinced you or confirms in you that there is and you are emotionally attached to that. I get it, but before you reply just stop and think for a couple minutes about what I've said.
>>24811646Stake a concrete claim or fuck off. I've seen this retard attempt at postulating intelligent thought the vaguest of posts a billion times. Get new material. Also, politics is for power all these people are maneuvering to increase the reach for their camp no one ever brings up theory unless they wish to hedge a position in any given debate.
The Problems of Philosophy is so funny for this spiritless midwit to be reading.
>>24811656Ok so you KNOW there are no answers and instead of being benevolent and allowing space for everyone's life and mind as your inherently valued equals you spend energy on them in order to impose your will upon them.So you're stupid AND evil. That about sums up my opinion of Destiny.
>>24811525>reddit spacerHoly newfag
>>24811525M-make an explicit claim so I can use rhetoric to appear knowledgeable! >pseud Ironic. You're so shallow. Give up on wrong and right and join us in the deep end with the adults.
>>24811679You said you knew how to think abstractly. That's not what that looks like. All you've done is assumed some shit and judged me for it. That's retarded. Not as retarded as believing the guy fighting on the side of liberalism would not allow space for everyone's life, but whatever brand of illiberal koolaid you've drank actually is, but it's in the same league.>>24811687Tourist go back.>>24811688>n-no you have to fight smoke that's the adult thing to dokek
>>24811692There's no fight retard.
>>24811695I disagree. Plus, if there is no fight why are you calling me a retard. Fuck you.
>>24811700Hey pal, fuck YOU
>>24810923>Ender's game (audiobook)This is how I know he's a faggot, even more so than the cocksucking
>>24811704See, now you're getting it. Music to my ears.
>>24810923>but I gave up after a couple pagesThe only philosophically interesting book he musters and he couldn't get past the first few pages lul.I guess being literate doesnt matter when your a debate bro, i dont get why you would when you have so much free time on your hands.
>>24811692>Tourist go backHey if I'm the tourist here can you tell me real quick where the term "reddit spacing" comes from? Thank you :)
>>24811401As a culturally insensitive liberal, Destiny is incapable of understanding how his economic beliefs continue to create existential crises that lead to violence and extremism. Camus would be like reading hieroglyphics for him. On a fundamental level, he fails to 'get' the zeitgeist that, for all their ills, even MAGA is subconsciously of.
>>24811633what's your bmi btw?
>>24811560>would either laugh or ignore the joke instead of crying about itOr dismiss you for being tot and disconnected with reality that your only connection with politics is an internet subculture. Most people arent invested in these little hugboxes like you, thats fine if you wanna stay that way, your just not a serious person.
>>24811727No.>>24811734If you don't fund the poors the violence gets bigger. Your solution? Plus, you can suck my dick on the economic beliefs. The Republicans just yoinked 5 trillion dollars from the American people and the only reason they refuse to extend ACA premium tax credits is the optics of a 4t tax cut vs 5t tax cut. The current iteration of Republicans are a blight upon the populous. If only Destiny was nicer, none of this would have happened, huh?>>2481174528.7, 5'10, 200 lbs. I am cultivating mass.>>24811747I am a Destiny dick rider on 4chan. Hugbox? God I wish you'd dismiss and disconnect frfr ong.>your just not a serious person.lol, classic.
>>24811777>No.Lurk a few more years before even thinking of trying to fit in :)Imagine trying to pass as an oldfag by calling me a tourist lmao. Sad. And shameless.
>>24811802Tourist go back.
>>24811633idk he's seemed to unleash the demon which is why nobody takes him seriously
>>24811856More often and much more aggressively please. Destroy their will to live.https://streamable.com/1t4dxd
>>24811866more so the sexual predation and cp curation
>>24811872Yeah, that's the line KF and other sad fucks not worth mentioning want to draw, but there's just no evidence for it as we can see by their shit ass case melting in front of our eyes. Have WillyMac make another hit piece crying uncle. This time it will work, for sure.
>>24811777>I am a Destiny dick rider on 4chanWhy even ironically call yourself this lul? This shit isnt worth caring this much about.
>>24811910I larp as gay so women relax around me. That's when I pounce. It's the first lesson in the dgg predator course. It's called strategy.
>>24811890idk what kf is but i know all of his friends broke contact over it when every other horrible thing he did was kosher, plus his view counts are unbelievably shit now, even worse than vaush (lmao).
Andrew Wilson already schooled you about 10 times little pup. Maybe one day you can finish a work of Philosophy and learn something a little more abstract than le other side bad!
>>24812040
>>24811777>If you don't fund the poors the violence gets biggerI agree. But that's not what I'm proposing. I'm saying that on some level, there's a kind of impoverishment of meaning that takes place in modern society which can't be remedied through reformist capitalist attempts at wealth redistribution. I see MAGA and the other resurgent fascist movements as a desperate and understandable response to this existential crisis. Destiny operates on an economic level and is thus mystified by their behavior. >Your solution?We need to drop the liberal individualist pretense and realize that people draw much of their sense of meaning from the collective. The uprooting of traditional communities which allows for a globalized workforce inadvertently feeds into the homogenizing, mass collectivization of fascism. This is why I say that Destiny's politics have created his own archnemesis. It would be better to arrest the flow of human capital through social welfare that allows traditional communities to be maintained. It's a common occurrence in many small towns for people to hit the age of 18 and to then depart for education and work, never to return for anything more than a short stay. If we counteract the corporate crackdown on WFH then it becomes more possible for people to live in the same place indefinitely. We can combine something like UBI with this and policies which ensure preferential treatment for locals in land purchases.
>>24812043Agghh no!
>>24812043Doesn't change the fact you blacklisted him from debating you cause you're to retarded to have a philosophy 101 conversation.
>>24812059destiny is a useless zionist sex criminal, i'm just pointing out andrew is a pathetic retard. he's like the highschooler who can debate middle schoolers, same as all the "whatever podcast" clowns.
>>24812064Whats so bad about him?
>>24812040This fag's debate strategy is to avoid making an actual claim and to just provide 'internal critiques' over the most hairsplitting bullshit imaginable. He did it in a Jan 6 debate with Destiny. Destiny joined the debate thinking it would be over whether or not Jan 6 constituted insurrection with Destiny saying it did. This fag waited for over an hour to announce he doesn't actually have a position and doesn't care.
>>24812079You forgot the part where he makes Destiny look foolish for hours on end.
>>24812029kiwifarms is a lolcow forum for the terminally online to congregate and screech about the current happenings as they openly and aggressively harass anyone who Destiny (in this case) gets closed to. They will fuck with your life until you disavow and separate yourself which is the friends broke contact thing you mentioned. I am glad comrade Hecarim is doing well tho.>>24812047Sure I am down, let's legislate a functioning ubi and have these wealth hoarding fucks fund a giant communal circlejerk with molly and baby oil across all communities. More realistically, however, WHF is never going to happen because of all the under water boomers who are sitting on commercial real estate>which can't be remedied through reformist capitalist attempts at wealth redistributionI disagree. Capital is the rope that either provides the opportunity for people to seek meaning. or chokes the life out of them. What we lack is upward mobility and a stable political environment with people operating in good faith.
Destiny literally thinks what he reads on wikipedia are facts.
>>24812092You don't? Are you a highschool teacher from 2008?
>>24812085they fucked with all his friends lives but it only got really bad when it was sexual predation and not the 100 other awful things he's done? nah, nobody believes that dude lol. you need a better lie.
>>24812094Explain to me how a wikipedia article gets made.
>>24812095Okay, don't believe it. It's just what's happening. The lore behind home grown hatewatcher/hasan fusion dance is too autistic to explain bit by bit. The bottom line is there is a deep lore of assblsated midwits trying to fuck over Destiny. >>24812100Same way a book is made. Someone writes it.
>>24812129Every book must be full of facts then.
>>24812139Only the peer reviewed ones.
I'm not in the know because I don't care about internet debaters, but do guys like Destiny bother to do activist work when they're not streaming?
>>24812140Interesting. Anything peer reviewed is a fact then.
>>24812141Yes, he's doing unfuck American tour rn debating MAGAS in different states and he used to fund and organize canvassing a couple of times before the online drama fucked that shit up.
>>24812142Within the bounds of human error/unknown to the species fundamentals, yeah.
>>24812149Can the people verifying wikipedia articles be trusted 100% of the time? So much so that its your only source of information?
>>24811777your guy is going to prison
>>24812141He did a bunch of canvassing for the DNC
>>24812158Not individually, but I assume collectively they're approaching a respectable range. >>24812159In like a dream you had or if MAGAS pull off the fascist takeover then yeah probably.
>>24812169no, for possession of cp. you should find better heroes, you dadless coon
>>24812188Is this cp in the room with us right now? The FBI must have looked they visited him more than once.
>>24812192very raped reply
If you could read cursive you wouldnt be arguing the merits of cursive. I taught myself cursive in the 3rd grade, just by looking at a cursive alphabet chart and slowly writing sentences one letter at a time. Took me less than a week to memorize it. In 3rd fucking grade. If you are an adult, the only thing holding you back from this skill is your own laziness. Quit being a dumbass and learn to fucking read.
>>24812198Very no argument. I accept your concession.
>>24810923Not a single important, influential, or informational book listed here. Kind of impressive, honestly, for a guy who pretends to be all of the above. But subverting my expectations does not give him any bonus points. 0/10, not a single thing worth reading was listed.
>>24812047>I agree. But that's not what I'm proposing. I'm saying that on some level, there's a kind of impoverishment of meaning that takes place in modern society which can't be remedied through reformist capitalist attempts at wealth redistribution.It absolutely can. New Deal policies are what curbed political extremism in America and paved the way for a flourishing public education system.
>>24812059"Debates" are meaningless anymore, and a completely vapid, stupid, waste of time. >Oh look, you can lie and misdirect without the proper time to research your baseless accusations as you pull motte and bailey fallacies and strawmen directly from your ass! You're such a good debater!"Anything worth saying, or worth knowing, is written down. Debating is just ego-tripping yourself at how you're able to twist other people's words to make them look silly, or obfuscating your own points to make yourself seem right, even if what you're arguing is completely morally objectionable or wrong.
>>24810923I mean. All he does is screech about politics is for power (literally). So I'm guessing it's the only relevant book here. His debates are just moving the goalpost back in time. >Blah blah blah did this? What about when blah blah blah did that?>Bleh blush blah did uuuh that?Bleh blush blah did that though! What about blah blah blah back when blah blah blah?For the love of fucking God he has fallen off the horse, as someone who tries to listen to the screeching. He does say funny things about Hasan though. Somebody has to, really.Politics is when.. you uuuh. Do nothing but scream into an echo chamber, sometimes. Sorry, going to have to discard 90% of these recommendations because I know they'll never be updated anyway.
>>24812209Not "influential"Das kapital is probably the most influential book since the Quran whether you agree with it or not. The communist manifesto is just the abridged companion piece with a more radical tone. 1984 (kind of sucks in my opinion) but is nevertheless an influential and arguably important.How to win friends is an important book to read to spot when someone's trying to grease you up. You shouldn't become the artificial slime ball described but you should learn how to spot them.The elements of style is the most influential book on writing ever, sure On writing well is a better book, but it grew out of it.The problem of philosophy is also an important and influential book.You just reduce anything if it's not from the "right" person. I think that sex pest little shit is awful, I am not a commie, but still I am not enough of a fag to discount the works on opposing world views.100% fag = you
>>24810923Its over.
>>24811606>>24811633I don’t know how to say this nicely, but just knowing who any of these people are, much less wasting your precious time on earth following them, you are a subhuman>zomg, did you hear what Mr. Sparkles said to Bonkycat and Kawaii-chan [white girl]?This is what you sound like. All of these losers are online for like 8 hours a day each, how do you even find the time to keep up with them? What value is there to be had?
>>24811606if liberalism requires a literal pedo rapist starcraft streamer to defend it, it might not be worth defending. i miss back when liberal social democrats was just boring balding european guys in suits
>>24812750He said on an obscure online forum spending his precious time antagonizing losers watching other losers for 8 hours a day. No mirrors in your house?>>24812809True, because you can't discern fact from fiction on the internet we should all be national socialists instead since you know there's only one guy defending liberalism and he's a LITERAL pedo rapist.
>>24813139i am literally saying that i am a liberal social democrat, retard. i am simply stating that if our ideology is incapable of having representatives beyond repugnant disgusting hedonistic literal nihilists like destiny then let the extremes duke it out and we can rise from its ashes like we did after WW2 with, in the case of my country, heroes like Einar Gerhardsen leading the way.
>>24813150Okay, and I am saying you're easily swayed and are not smart enough to navigate the internet and maintain a coherent perspective afterwards. What about it? >i am literally saying that i am a liberal social democrat, retardShow me where you said that. Plus, what's wrong with being a hedonistic literal nihilist? Suck my dick. You're not special because you proclaim to have access to a higher truth when you don't use it because at the end of the day it's just pretentious status seeking.

>>24810923I just need to look at his hair color to know that he's wrong about everything
>>24814818It's obvious you're a troon.
>>24812079>Destiny joined the debate thinking it would be over whether or not Jan 6 constituted insurrection with Destiny saying it did.This is a topic where narrowing the frame of the debate to that question in the first place invites hairsplitting. If you think than Jan 6. was an insurrection, it means that your head is full of nonsense hallucinations and NPC programming. It means your definitions are screwed up and you lack the ability to contextualize events reasonably and apply critical thinking to propaganda.In other words it's not going to be an honest debate no matter what, so it doesn't really matter what kind of technique the opponent uses. If all they do is make you look like an idiot, that's a win for everyone.
>>24815321>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MUH TROONIES I AM NOOOOTICINGI am not. Not like reality matters to the obsessed tho. You'll just keep on larping.

>>24812214That said, writing doesn't necessarily solve anything. 2010s proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt since all the big blogger sites would just box out certain topics and opinions to cultivate the desired narratives.

>>24816678Thanks for playing.
>>24816746Because Destiny is an egomanic cocksucker who has no substantive thoughts and who's only remaining character is the color of his hair and blowing his wifes boyfriend, a portrait that he himself inadvertently cultivated, therefore the only thing available to attack is the caricature he has become (see: Clown).
