it's cool that these dudes are all so divorced from reality and normal human interaction that the most important thing to them is that other werido shutins be allowed to harass and threaten people all day without consequence

and the guy who gets to decide if that can happen listens to them earnestly because he's rich and being rich is just another form of being divorced from reality and normal human interaction

I honestly don't think Rogan is as bad as this thread makes him out to be.

It makes sense if you think of him as a literal space cadet bongripper who lucked out and has slightly better comedic timing than his peers. He's only interested in his own perception of comedy and really unintelligent kicks.

I mean, he does tend to at least ask dumbshits like McInness what the hell they're doing.

I think it's definitely bad that JRE is a gateway to the alt-right for a lot of disaffected weirdo men, but that it's also an excellent resource for getting these freaks to tell on themselves. So really the truth is in the middle.

ordering a meal at a nice restaurant that you enjoy eating and then remembering a few hours later that you can use this for a "brand moment" by pretending to be mad about it

this is what we call a "win, win"

then when you realize you can rile your followers up more by claiming the left is attacking you when someone asks "why didn't you just go to wattaburger?"

that, my friends, is a "win, win, win"

so gabbard seems to be losing support among the MDE / alt-right meme / fash accounts for yang and his UBI scheme. saw matthew parrott (ex-TWP) also promoting this.

i was thinking about why this is. maybe i'm overthinking it but it makes me think that UBI in this case is serving as a kind of bribe for lumpenproletariat NEETs -- natural recruits for fascists -- in exchange for not questioning or overthrowing existing social relations, as usual. kind of an alignment between them and certain sectors of the professional STEM class

There is a point buried in there somewhere about how bourgeois culture overcomplicates very simple things to extract a premium for something that basically boils down to presentation - but it's not THE LEFT that's doing this. Bourgeois values aren't leftist.

A Finnish restaurateur in Germany got boycotted when people found out he's involved in an organisation called "Veljesapu" (Brethren Help) that was originally formed to aid Finnish SS volunteer veterans and their families, as the Finnish state did not provide any aid for them after the war. Of course the restaurant and the owner released a statement denying any Nazi sympathies. The web page of the organization basically says that "Veljesapu isn't at all about supporting Nazis, we just publish a newsletter called ACHTUNG! that mostly contains articles denying the veracity of historical proof that Finnish SS men partook in all the atrocities that other SS men liked to do, because other outlets for some reason don't want to publish that kind of thing."

I don't think his interview is going to help vis-à-vis people boycotting his lovely establishment.

e: In case anyone doesn't realize/know, literally everyone at all interested in "remembering" or "aiding" Finnish SS veterans is a full-on Nazi.

It's a pretty straightforward policy that supports their material circumstances. If nothing else 12k USD a year guarantees that even if they get their careers destroyed for posting epic merchant memes, they can at least buy chicken tendies every day. Eliminating the threat of absolute destitution would be a psychological relief for anybody.

im not surprised the alt right like andrew yang, UBI is still capitalism. it could also be used as cover to cut disability and other social services

i think yang says he’d use a sales tax to fund the program?? seems bad imo

UBI is definitely bad as a Trojan horse for destroying the welfare state, but welfare programs are already so heavily means-tested that a UBI would benefit way more people than many other policy platforms.

I'm sure most of them are just indulging in fantasies of being able to shitpost all day and buy their own tendies for once but a lot of these dudes DO live marginal existences and the idea of actual material improvement to their daily lives is going to become more intoxicating the longer they live with their circumstances and start to realize "this is probably it for me, huh"
