Comments by "Rob McCune" (@robm6645) on "When the Left Gets It Wrong" video.

  1. +roscoboxer Pretty much, regressive means being consistent with your liberal values, you need to consider liberalism a tribal identity that demeans others and side with members of that tribe no matter what if you want to not be a regressive.

  2. +Jonathan rubin Finally a Rubin that tells the truth.

  3. +American Insurgent Yeah, but expecting them to be an actually liberal country is regressive don't you know.

  4. +01man01truck It's a geiger counter, Rubin is radioactive.

  5. Davs NewG Regressive is just a new version of saying SJW meaningless terms used to shut down conversations rather than engage with ideas..

  6. +The Bottle Opener The so called "anti-regressives" do everything they accuse the so-called "regressives" of doing just as much if not more.

  7. +Titus Orelius And your comment shows just how meaningless the phrase "Regressive Left" is.

  8. ***** Actions matter, and Israel is actually committing human rights violations. The fact is Hamas doesn't represent the Palestinians, you might as well say that no country should deal with the U.S. because the KKK exists.

  9. +Tangle2Brook A sane person?

  10. Davs NewG It's not a valid label, it's just a cover for anti-liberalism, same as the old cover for anti-liberalism.

  11. +Melisa Bailey Damn those regressives, they want to take us backward to our founding principles and liberal values. Rubin tells us that the only way forward is unprincpled realpolitik to preserve our social and geopolitical order.

  12. +c triana When he calls people regressive he's covering for his own anti-liberal views.

  13. Titus Orelius If what you say is true, then you shouldn't say "Like Cenk Uyger," you should say "Like Dave Rubin."

  14. +karl john This conversation is all about resentment and reaction, of course someone named AynRand1967 would love.

  15. Davs NewG How about you take it issue by issue rather than use a word that attacks all progressives, including progressives like me an Pakman. People have proper names you know.
    3
  16. Davs NewG You've got it backward, anti-liberal people are trying to conflate the worst aspects of liberalism with liberalism, hence the word regressive.
    3
  17. +Davs NewG No, we don't. They should condemn both with liberal values, your tribalism is exactly the wrong thing.

  18. projeckt2501 You stated it perfectly thanks.

  19. VisionStorm1 Your comment is just stupid.
    2
  20. VisionStorm1 As you can see TitusHerpDerpicus Titus Orelius has deemed Pakman an enemy of the state because he hasn't been consumed by anger and resentment, hence isn't one of them.

  21. ***** Liberals are about fairness and equality, they don't take sides, only criticize injustice.

  22. +Prophet Muhammad If you want to see mindless shallowness you must look within, within your own comments that is.

  23. tarun1982 You can learn a lot from the people you view as race traitors dhimmis, much more in fact than we can learn from you dummies. 
    2
  24. ***** Definitely, look no further than ***** and the rabid tarun1982 for that kind of behavior. 
    2
  25. Davs NewG Saying I have to go along with anti-liberalism if I don't want art censored is a false dichotomy. I can condemn both while walking and chewing gum, trust me, it's not that great of feat. 
    2
  26. Davs NewG What? You're not making sense. 
    2
  27. Davs NewG It's catching on because it is anti-liberal. Whichever way you want to be anti-liberal, just call the liberal opposition regressive. For Pakman and Rubin in the video it means standing for human rights in the Israel Palestine conflict, how is that censoring art? 
    2
  28. sausagemcbean Yeah, but you say that about most humans. 
    2
  29. ***** If regressive means distorting your opponents views then Dave Rubin is one of the most regressive people on earth.

  30. +jwatson If that's the case we should still be in Vietnam.

  31. +Arlenis B You mean fawning praise and worship?
    1
  32. Arlenis B Sorry, I misread, didn't see the apostrophe. I thought you were talking about his approach to Harris as an individual.

  33. Anthony Serocco America + 20 years of Cheney.

  34. Titus Orelius I know, it's so self evident it seems trivial, but it's there to get VisionStorm1 up to speed.

  35. ***** The lesser of two evils isn't good, and isn't above criticism. Also Hamas isn't all Palestinians, they are not even the majority of Palestinians nor do they represent Palestinians in peace talks. Hamas is a red herring used by Israel to avoid negotiating peace with the Palestinians.

  36. ***** I'm responding to you. 
    1
  37. ***** It's in your comment for anyone to read. Besides, if my response is a non-sequitur, so is your comment that I was replying to.
    1
  38. ***** Wow, talk about projection, you are the one unwilling to engage when reality gets injected into your narrative.
    1
  39. ***** It's not about convincing anyone. It's about attacking people for being freethinkers who are consistent with liberal values.
    1
  40. +mangaas That's not true, there are plenty of other issues when Rubin thinks liberals are weak traitors.
    1
  41. ***** Probably because they don't and it is something you made up to justify being a centrist version of a Trump supporter.
    1
  42. +Titus Orelius No you are thinking of Dave Rubin of the Thought Crime Report Rubin Report.
    1
  43. ***** No, it's a way of making liberal values into thought crime. 
    1
  44. Titus Orelius And TitusHerpDerpicus Titus Orelius just makes things up because he prefers narratives over facts.
    1
  45. +Titus Orelius Yeah, Rubin couldn't handle it.
    1
  46. +The_Desert_Tiger That's not what Pakman and Rubin want you to think, they want it all to be about Israel.
