      There's a reason Martin Luther King Jr disavowed violence and violent rhetoric. If you want to win and retain public support, it is very important to hold your movement to high standards, no matter how righteous the cause.

    Predictably, Pisco shows himself to be completely not worth the time to listen to whatsoever. Destiny's right, there's a huge gap between 'violence' and 'non-violence'. Non-violence implies going out of ones way to avoid violence and condemning it, not just being peaceful.

    • @synlion
      @synlion ปีที่แล้ว +5

      i wonder whether pisco would be less autistically focused on semantics if you replaced non-violence with non-aggression. he creates this dichotomy between violent and non-violent groups that makes no sense. trans activism isn’t violent, nor non-violent. it’s neutral on violence which is precisely the issue. non-aggression might have been more clear.

      @@synlion Frankly I agreed with Pisco on some of the semantical arguments, even though I completely disagreed with him on his position on the tweet. I think it is really important to not needlessly broaden the term 'violence'.
      But I agree with you that he misses the mark on the difference between an active strategy of non-violence; compared to passively not being violent (or what could be called being neutral on violence). It is pretty clear that Ana was talking about the active tactic of non-violence, and not on merely lacking violence. The difference between passive and active is something that comes up in other semantical arguments. (yes I realize I am also autistically focused on semantics; but words is how we communicate)
      I probably wouldn't agree with Pisco at all in the conversation; if it wasn't for it seeming like Destiny was expanding the term violence for certain types of speech. Granted, everyone realized a different term should be used; but Stochastic T-word is also terrible, and they were unable to settle on any terms. I frankly don't know why they weren't able to find the term 'inflammatory'. Like of the speech Destiny was pointing out as causing problems; was there any that wouldn't meet the term 'inflammatory'?
      Being inflammatory, divisive and destructive is dangerous for a movement seeking to gain support and make positive change; and this is something that Ana and Destiny think a light should be shined on.

    • @rrteppo
      @rrteppo ปีที่แล้ว

      @@josephburchanowski4636 The issue is the people broadening the term for violence are speaking the same ideas as the people committing the old definition of violence. It tends to be LGBT groups, ANTIFA, and BLM groups who speak of words as violence, misgendering, talking about immigration, or saying the N-word as examples. But then at the same time they are not outright condemning the people who imprison people in their office for hours, Black block tactics to hide people committing property damage, or the fiery but mostly peaceful protests after Floyd.
      The issue is the left in general has been living under a double standard for as long as I have been alive. Republicans are all racist, stupid, and violent. While the left are all inclusive, academic, and victims. This has been the stereotype that has been pushed since I was a child. So Trump saying, "peacefully march up there and fight for what we know is right," is considered violence because he said the word fight, but then there is a montage of Democrats saying "fight" calling for riots and it is considered not just peaceful but inclusive and standing up for the oppressed. During the Floyd trial congress woman, Maxine Waters, literally said, "Get more confrontational," if it doesn't come back guilty on every count. Maxine Waters is still in office and hasn't faced any consequences for telling protestors to turn into rioters.
      Other double standards would be Trump, Clinton, and Biden in how them illegally holding onto federal classified documents was handled. Part of the Trump inditement is him asking his lawyer, "can we do the Hillary thing?" Another difference is how the Election was handled. Trump is being indited for contesting the election in what he believed to be a legal method, because historically a Democrat literally did the same exact thing in Hawaii. On top of that we spent 3 years on Trump Russia on literally trumped up charges, when a number of places that went towards Biden completely refused to do a recount of anything other than the machines result.
      People are not stupid, they are busy with their lives so they don't see everything that happens. That doesn't mean they don't see any of this, and at a certain point what is going to happen is the general public is just going to never vote Democrat ever again. I am already at that point where I will only vote Independent or Republican until the Democrat party changes their ways on a fundamental level.

      I don't see it that way. Destiny was a bumbling fool in this debate. He was all over the place and tried qualifying arguments with planck lengths between the comparison Pisco gave as examples. "Yes, you can hold trans activist's accountable for BLM riot violence ( keep in mind an overwhelming small amount of the BLM protests were violent)." Five minutes later, "I wouldn't consider a large group of people violent because it's unnecessarily broad. As time goes on Destiny's arguments are becoming less and less sound.

    MLK spent some time arguing about breaking the law, and why it was important to him in protest. He goes a long way, criticizing Plato's Crito and laying down conditions for direct civil disobedience. It's a pretty calculated formula and he makes entire arguments to justify breaking the law through careful examination of the law, history, and what to do. It doesn't condone or advocate for rioting in any way, because MLK kinda had reverence for Liberalism and procedure, he felt like the law didn't protect him or other African-Americans well, which is why he set out to define laws he thought were unjust and specfically break THEM and not other laws or in chaotic fashion. In fact, this is a huge portion of the Letter from Birmingham Jail edgy lefties like to parrot when they make enemies of normal white people

      This is what I've been saying for years. It's like far leftists think MLK just had the moral high ground, so he inevitably won.
      But the civil rights movement was meticulously planned. Challenging laws that he knew were unconstitutional. He was also very aware of right wing medias tendency to blow up any violence. And that's a big reason he had a 0 tolerance policy on violence within the movement. He knew that any violence from the movement needed to be condemned immediately.

Literally the only reason Destiny is jumping on this take is because his entire system of political beliefs is based on seeing what his 10 most hated ‘leftie’ Twitter accounts are saying on a topic, then desperately trying to claw his way to a more ‘moderate’ position (even if it’s braindead) before insisting ‘No you don’t understand, nobody has thought about the nuances of this topic, unlike me’ lmao.

    Peaceful is not the same thing as non-violent. Non-violence is an explicit tactic, and that needs to be stated and agreed with in a movement. Its not enough to abstain from violence to be "non-violent". You have to be committed to not retaliating, not agressing, which is certainly not the trans *activist* position. Edit: non-violent resistance movements are generally understood to have originated with Gandi, and to claim to be part of that political cannon is something quite specific. Its quite a radical position and not neccecarily always appropriate. Non-violence is not inherently more or less ethical than other forms of political activism.

      And they're being just awfully damn rude..... And unlady like too.
      If they want to call themselves women, then the first thing they need to know about women is how we interact with one another!
      If a woman can tell that she is making other women and girls in a room around her uncomfortable, or they don't feel safe.... Then out of respect, the woman making everybody uncomfortable will leave. She just will! And that could be for any number of reasons, this is how women flow with one another.
      And on the rare occasion that the woman doesn't get the picture, a woman will ask that woman to leave or straight up tell her, bitch its time to go!
      But we aren't even allowed to treat trans women like other women. I mean I'm sorry, but if you're a woman in a locker room, but you're standing there with your penis hanging out in front of God, women and children...... It's going to make us all a little uncomfortable, and if you're really a woman, you'll pick up on that discomfort and put that penis away..... And leave, because now it's just weird if you stayed.
      I don't know why it would be out anyway during a conversation, we women don't just hang out socializing with one another with our vaginas hanging out..... And our breasts waving around all national geographic like! 🤷
      Believe It or not women are pretty modest in areas like locker rooms, and bathrooms..... That's why we have stalls to change in and to pee in.
      I'm just so sick of being told that these are women and I need to treat them as women....... But then get called a transphobe if you call it out when they're acting absolutely nuts!!!

Destiny is saying that the civil rights movement condemned violence, while many modern progressive movements (including trans) do not disavow violence, and in some cases encourage or call for it.

    pisco trying to argue that violent laced rhetoric that ana calls out in her tweet is her defining the trans movement as a violent organization that needs to be on a FBI watchlist.
    Destiny literally tells him that he's binary in his thinking and that it's fair to say that rhetoric and endorsement of violence can lead to it. Pisco wants everyone to act in hindsight to things that haven't happened, but criticizes anyone that wants to sound alarms for the path a movement could be heading down.
    It's like arguing you shouldn't pull a fire alarm if you only see smoke, and that it would be better to wait for the flames to start appearing and then start spreading around you before trying. You're in an infinitely worse position and so are the people around you, just because you wanted to wait for the danger to start and spread.

It feels as if this thing with Ana is the most important news in the world and that most people know about it but in fact this is ultimate fringe internet nerd drama. If you poll a bunch of normal people at the grocery store I would be surprised if 10% recognize her face from something, let alone who Ana is and her current arc development and the inner workings of TYT.
    I love the comments, I love interacting with people in the comments, I love reading comments. But the vast, vast majority of viewers are not commenting. And the vast vast majority of people are not even watching these channels and topics. Comments, tweets, subreddits, are completely unrepresentative of the general consensus, yet it feels as if you are reading the true opinions or the whole society. You get thousands of crazy replies on a tweet that must mean people in real life feel similar. Yet it really doesn’t, in IRL nobody would give asf about Ana’s statement.

    To me, the reason you can't equate the "trans movement" with the civil rights movement is that the civil rights movement was a just cause. It wasn't built on lies, it didn't seek to force people to adhere anti free speech views and it didn't endanger children. There also IS violence from the "trans movement", including a shooting that killed 6 innocents. You never saw anything like that in the civil rights movement.

    Super disappointed in some of these comments. I think it's obvious there needs to be a separation between "most trans people" and "lgbtq activists". The context is Ana's tweet so it should be obvious to any reasonable person that Destiny and Ana are mainly talking about the radical activists because they are the ones leading the movements and calling for inappropriate action. It's not incorrect to say those people are indeed using violent, forceful or aggressive tactics. But that in no way means it's representative of the average trans person. And it doesn't mean the activists are always violent. Just often, more than he's comfortable with.
    If you think the radical activists are mostly peaceful you have a very strange definition of peace. To me and most sane people: harassing, bullying, intimidation, doxxing, censoring, deplatforming, getting people fired etc. IS an act of aggression / violence. And it's not supported by the population at large because in 99% of cases it's seen as unjust and needless targeting of innocent individuals who didn't do anything illegal or wrong.
    So yes, actually, you guys are on the wrong side of history and at some point you will need to realize it to reverse course and save the left lol. Or don't realize it and be doomed to absolute failure.

This is always anecdotal on both sides, no matter how many examples we bring up of clear violence and intimidation for political aims (aka terrorism) you can dismiss it as being an isolated incident, a fake leftist, a fed, not a real trans or not real communism. It's never representative of anything unless it's your personal anecdote about how this maga hat wearing vampire came out of nowhere and jumped on a muslim girl in a bus.
      You may think both examples are the same but one is using 1 made up hatecrime to paint all trump supporters are evil racists. The other is an observation about clear pattern and tendencies of a movement that people want to pretend isn't real. We witness the toxicity, language, manipulation and intimidation on a daily basis, and the left tries to gaslit everyone into believing nothing is happening. Even though hundreds of trans people are literally admitting in this comment section that they're terrified of the cult and can't speak against it or they'll be attacked. Destiny's intention is obviously not to paint all or most lgbtq people as violent, but to point to some obvious issues the movement has and where it's obviously heading.
      You may not like the word violent but whatever you call it it's something that's being done repeatedly and that is making the masses, not just conservatives, despise this movement and everything it stands for. So it is in the lgbt's best interest to actually understand why people are saying the things they are saying. It's not coming from nowhere. So whatever this thing is, it's what people need to acknowlege exists and needs to change. Dismissing it or pretending it's not widespread or representative of the majority doesn't actually change anything. Like that's irrelevant almost. It's there, even if it's 30% of the movement it's too high and a huge liability and ticking time bomb.

    There’s a huge, huge difference between “being nonviolent” and “using nonviolence”. It’s one thing to simply not be violent because you don’t want to get arrested, and refusing to be violent even when you’re being beaten by your enemy. The civil rights movement had a moral commitment to non-violence-the trans rights movement views it at best as a PR strategy, and it’s not even particularly committed to that. MLK told his followers to love their enemies. Is there a single trans activist in America who makes statements like that who isn’t actively repudiated as a terf apologist by the trans movement as a whole?

    I live in a red state. Over 30 years ago a trans man worked at the coal mine. You know what people did? They referred to her as a him. We thought it was weird, but ultimately nobody cared. Today, from both Democrats and Republicans, it's no longer acceptance or indifference it's concern and in some cases hatred. Activists have made trans people a political football. So y'all are going to get kicked a whole lot.

    I think if Destiny used “aggression” instead of “violence” i would agree with him 100%. But when people hear violence they equate it to physical violence and i disagree that most ppl interpret “violence” the way destiny says they do. The Civil rights movement was NOT as aggressive as the current Trans movement. The BLM riots were aggressive AND violent - physically, socially, verbally…

    I think the issue is, and don't know why destiny's not picking up on this, Anna's talking about political violence, not violence as a legal term for individuals. Political violence is going to be the support of and willingness to carry out violence against the state and civilians to achieve your political goals. When we see individuals willing to carry out violence in the name of their political movement, against their supposed political enemy's, and figureheads of that movement come out in support of those violent actions, it's by definition political violence. By Pisco's definition, I don't know if we could label any political movement throughout history as violent because at least 50% of the people that supported the movement were not carrying out violence on a regular basis.

    The practical reality of any movement is that the optics of violence is extremely bad. If you don't actively disavow violence in your movement it will fester and aggressive incidents will hinder your ability to attract moderate people. In the current paradigm of democracy you have to win over some majority support for passing new policy.
    I think this is a phase people go through when they're younger, have less perspective and are more emotionally driven. There's anger at what is perceived injustice in the world, it's very black and white, you're right and your opponents are wrong and need to be defeated. That means you tilt towards the ends justifying the means, misinformation, lies, manipulation and ultimately threats and then real violence. So you ramp up behaviour, but it doesn't work, you get sick of being in the same tired loop and small insular and ineffective communities and you join the rest of the moderates at the table for an "establishment" discussion with your opponents.
    That's what a lot of these people like Vaush and Cenk sell, they're stuck in that place being totally ineffective at real change. If you want to grift and make money then you can off the emotions of your audience, becaue what you provide is a sense of someone shares their anger and outrage. But politically it's totally ineffective, I see someone like Ana probably capable of breaking free of that long term, and I think that's kinda where Destiny has the lead in the online political sphere, he has his own political preferences as we all do, but understands the reality is good faith negotiation.

    What we're seeing is leftists basically ascribing to the Hasan world view: "Sure it's bad, problematic, toxic and violent, but it's ok when we do it."
    I see nothing but apologists trying to justify, minimize or condone violent acts. And people trying to gaslight Destiny and Ana into believing there's no violence happening whatsoever. They are completely unable to admit it's rampant or an issue and use "it's not representative of the movement" as a copout. Like are you saying it's fine if only 40-50% of the movement is engaging in unacceptable terrorist behavior? Because that's a whole lot of people you know. Even if it's not "representative" of the majority, it will still be what people know you for and it will unquestionably have an impact on how many people stop supporting you / how many people despise you.
    So I think they're doing it wrong by pretending nothing violent is happening unless 75+% of the movement is violent.

    At 50 minutes in, Pisco hits the nail on the head about something that really frustrates me about Destiny. He acts like social movements (trans rights, BLM) are all spun from progressive groups solely and that Bernie et al. are responsible for them, but Pisco's right! These issues are mainstream liberal issues, and in fact, normie libs can be some of the most annoying about them (parroting things like "identifying as a gender is all it takes to be that gender") because they're well-meaning but uninformed. Everything Destiny dislikes about the left is because of progressives and leftists. It's such a silly view.

    • @Itsnotthatserioustbh

      I think he has that view because he’s watched these views trickle out of leftist communities and into the mainstream over the course of several years.
      You’re 100% right that tons of libs parrot these talking points and views now but in say 2016 that was not the case at all. I’d legit argue that these became mainstream lib positions bc the farther left was more than willing to use doxxing, stonewalling, cancellation, and smearing against libs who disagreed with them and not bc they provided sound arguments

      Also destiny’s point about holding people accountable is literally just calling out bad behavior. Not to mention when a political figure shows support for a movement they basically become a part of it and now would have to hold people accountable which was what he was talking about.

    There’s a difference between the absence of significant amounts of violence and being against violence. “Non-violence” in the civil rights era meant actively working to prevent your side from doing violence and condemning it when it did happen.
    Destiny’s gripe seems mostly that the only reason there is not more violence in the trans-activist community is circumstantial which is different from MLK Jr. and the majority of previous civil rights leaders who ideologically opposed violence as a means to political ends.

    • @optp2855
      @optp2855 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@hijklmnopreaper Maybe I should have made it more clear. MLK Jr., along with the civil rights leaders he worked with were the people I was referring to. There were likely times where nonviolent (in the MLK Jr. sense) activists weren't the majority campaigning for civil rights, but, as you get into the 60's, most influential leaders were on board with MLK Jr. and his methods.
      If you want to be cynical, the methods used were chosen because they were more popular with the public at large. (surely not because of Ghandi's success, because it was somewhat limited and India ultimately got independence by fighting in WW2)
      If you want my opinion, MLK Jr., while inspired by Ghandi, was extremely Christian. They were nonviolent not by circumstance, but by ideology. They believed that everyone was god's children and that should have a strong bearing on how everyone should be treated.
      While it is not the norm throughout history (depending on your definition that would probably be civil war/revolts), it is viewed as the gold standard of civil rights movements by most people (an admittedly high bar to reach).
