Unironically, the public getting to see politicians' tells in a low stakes environment where who is lying isn't up for debate might not be a bad thing.

@calvinmiguel4405 I have to disagree. When you know what to look for, most of our politicians are terrible liars.

@haroldsullivan2036 you know, Vaush put together a fairly well-cited case and all I've ever heard in counter argument amounts to "nuh-uh, that's dumb lol" by people upset that someone pointed out that the dead guys they let control their thinking said things contrary to what they're currently arguing and vaguely gesturing at theory about. And this whole thing came about because "nuu-uh, read theory" was an overwhelming deflection to the utilitarian argument to vote Biden when all other arguments got debunked by better ones or invalidated by changing conditions over the past year. Your appeals to authority and hollow ad-homs have fallen flat. Quit patting yourself on the back.

@jonessii so your issue is that 9 months ago, one stream where he overviewed drama that was going around at that time, he didn't address one issue he did address in a more comprehensive video here https://youtu.be/vfvvWw63Yh0?t=623 and in a pinned comment here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slirSgbYBAA saying "In this video, I drop an n-bomb. Biiiig one; hard 'R'. I did this to show my interlocutors that their language doesn't impress me, that their slurs don't frighten or disarm me. You can see from their reactions that it worked - they were clearly taken aback. It was a power move which I am entirely unashamed of, but I understand how that language might have upset some of you. This is an example of what I would call an 'invocation of a slur's power for good', but that's a subjective judgement. I invite you all to discuss this in the comments, critically or otherwise!" That's your big issue? Oh, and btw, if you reply, please tell us how many people you've pulled out of the alt-right pipeline. That's what I care about, and why I made the comparison to Contra.

@jonessii really? Pulling that out of context to try and what? Imply that one of the most successful leftists at pulling people out of the alt-right pipeline and arguing against racista has a racist agenda? I'm sorry, did you like it when the alt-right was spreading all over YouTube constantly bragging about how the left wouldn't debate them? Do you think we need more of that? Get over yourself. Advocacy spaces are not and cannot be safe spaces and trying to make them such hurts both the advocacy and those that need a safe space. People like Vaush and Contra, dispite their comparatively minor slipups now and then do WAY more good than harm, and dishonest hacks like you who undermine that to boost your own ego and social capital are the ones actually hurting the left. Fact: there are a lot less chuds in the world right now because of Vaush. However mad it makes you that he's more effective than you at leftist advocacy means nothing to me.
