Tim Pool is the dumbest person in political talk. He's the only one I can think of that I actually hate. He's so impressed with his own intellect and he says nothing of substance.

I don't care about your policy positions, but if you think you're gods gift to journalism and grit, go **** yourself.

I'm gonna be perfectly honest, I feel like if Hasan tried debating Tim Pool he would probably lose.

With Knowledge Fight I get all the good bits, counteract the toxic vibes with the hosts who rule, and get schadenfreud when they dunk on him. Like they have hours and hours on depositions from Info Wars employees from Alex's court cases that warm my pinko heart.

Yeah it's a safe contained space for listening to the opposition be "destroyed" by your parasocial idols. That's about what I gathered tbh. I don't think listening to them dissect clips is actually "getting all the good parts," that's just where we disagree.

He's entertaining. Personally I love it when he yells at chat cause half the time they're trolling him and he just gets so bitchy about it.
he's not entertaining. Trust me, I don't hate him for his politics. I hate him because he has clickbaited me into trying to watch his boring ass content on a number of occasions.

Vaush is better than hasan yes. But other than that meh

He used to be better tbh. Now he's scared to debate people after destiny kept making him look stupid. Womp womp.

Okay. I enjoy ****ty fascists getting dunked on. A perfectly respectful pastime.

Well damn apparently I've been bored this whole time.

Wby would losing to Destiny make him scared to debate people who aren't Destiny? This sounds like dumb guy framing tbh.

jwb 12-04-2022 09:47 PM

He only debates actual retards anymore. That's my experience anyway with the videos of his I've clicked on recently. His problem is fundamentally not that he's stupid but that he's just intellectually lazy.

The Batlord 12-04-2022 10:00 PM

But unless he was consistently losing debates with people other than Destiny then your argument is just claiming to be able to psychically divine his motives for doing less debates. His framing is that now that he has a bigger platform he has to be more responsible with who he platforms, and given how he's transitioned to being more chill in general I don't think that's an obviously self-serving rationalization. Obviously I'm not psychic about his motivations either but it's reasonable at least.

jwb 12-04-2022 10:04 PM

Sure, sure. It just coincides with him losing debates with destiny and entering the subsequent "fortress arc," but I can't prove his true motives etc etc. That's fine lol. But either way his content has become more boring as a result. Vaush vs destiny was honestly top tier content. As opposed to what? Debating some rando from chat with dumb beliefs who vaush can dunk on?

The Batlord 12-04-2022 10:18 PM

I mean you can frame it however you want and I can frame it about how he's changed his approach to his content holistically and you can frame me as a simp while I frame you as a knee-jerk anti-leftist. It's kind of just a Mexican standoff.

Honestly though I don't really care too much about the debates and like his content because he's an entertaining host and I agree with more of his takes than many other content creators.

jwb 12-04-2022 10:30 PM

I mean like I said that's how it looks to me but it doesn't actually even matter if I'm wrong about the reason. The content is still watered down as a result.

And yeah that's fine...I do like debate content more and honestly I would almost never just listen to vaush monologue. I can fairly well guess what his takes are on most things so it's not so interesting to listen to uncontested.

It's entertaining listening to you two argue, and before you try to explain, I'm not interested in this, but I want you to know that I feel like an eighty-year old listening to two teenagers debate the merits of, say, Fortnite or Call of Duty or something. Totally lost, and few of your words make sense to me. Guess I just don't move in those circles. It is funny though. Like being an eavesdropper on an alien planet.
