There was this 3rd point people they glossed over regarding UBI/Work No Longer being a thing (Which only framed on dreamless liberals and calvinist jerks), which would be that it would outright gut a lot of services that do address the more vulnerable (Disabled folk coming to mind) on the excuse they were already getting money thru UBI, explaining part why that sorta stuff appealed a bunch to Cato Institute types.

That'd just be a changing of names, not really appoint of concern.

I've never actually read any of his books because I didn't think they sounded like my thing, but I think I'll check em out now. Which ones do people recommend?

I also loved when they did their big analogy about Lenin being a poster and he was just like "I have no idea what you're talking about."

Definitely the City and the City.

Anti-trans feminism does lead to less and worse support and services for trans people, and considering how rough it is to be trans they have a right to get pissed about that. Terfs aren't stabbing trans women but if they block them from dv shelters, don't offer health services or simply just harass them there's going to be deaths.

I listen to a lot of Duckfeed.tv stuff. There's a lot of book-club style discussions about games and other stuff (they started series on The Dark Tower and R.E.M. Albums) as well as comedy from Abject Suffering and Teenage Dirtbags.

With politically related podcasts, I've enjoyed starting w whatever episode is right after the election. Any recommendations for specific episodes for Street Fight or F Plus?

For street fight I started with Egalitarian Flat Earth as a starter, it's a fun one that shows off their strengths and vibe well. With the F plus most people recommend 'any Cling You Want' or the adult babies Ep if they want to start on the hard stuff, but I'd go with any of the ones after 100 with a subject that interests you.

As horrified as I am by Pizzagate and similar gov conspiracy bullshit, uh... Iceland's government just collapsed as a result of a legit pedo cover-up. What the hell.

Pizzagate's insane because of the whole thing being done via a secret pizza code reversed engineered from some emails via guesswork, not because the idea of the rich and powerful either protecting or being pedophiles is outlandish.

Pixelated Boat comes from a country where they did the thing he was advocating and it empirically worked, and the main arguments against his view were that minorities need guns to defend themselves (which I don't think is really happening since cops aren't shot, and in the few cases I have heard of they get put in jail anyway, legality not mattering), that guns are necessary for leftists to do an armed revolution (which is insane on a lot of levels) and that enforcement would target black people more than white people, which is a little more reasonable but the response to that was incredibly bad faith about how he obviously meant it'd be done in way and enforce the state monopoly on violence. All he said was some poo poo like "I don't want anyone to have guns, period" and everyone acts like he's some loving cryptofascist because he didn't support some weird libertarian streak that popped up for a day.

I’ve never seen any hypothetical reason for Russia interfering with the US, unless there’s a hidden Influence meter that will get a victory in the giant game of Civilisation the rich are playing or Russia’s spy agencies are as incoherent as the rest of the world. If Russia had control of the US, America would not be so tight with Saudi oil interests or backing Syrian groups fighting the ones the Russians back. Maybe there’s something I’m not seeing but the Russia poo poo doesn’t answer anything.
