Outrageous! What if I miss the stream?
Who is that… I asked, hesitantly
Vaush, a market socialist streamer. He claims to be anarchist (but is actually more of a libertarian socialist who likes the existence of a market).
Old Vaush.
That’s harsh, he’s only 30
I had some kind of rodent as a kid (can’t remember what; just that it wasn’t a hamster) and I put him in my mouth once. He must’ve enjoyed it because he would try to force his way in there every time I’d let him run around on me.
Ah yes, back when debates were entertaining to engage in.
Idk if I miss him yelling “Michael!” for 45 minutes…
Pretty sure the only sentient being that would need to be worried around Vaush would be a little girl he wants to take on a stable tour.
Is this an inside joke or is he a creep?
He has made jokes about horse cocks before. He also accidentally opened a folder containing loli and horse cocks on stream once .
There’s also an old out of context clip of him floating around “justifying cp because we abuse kids in labor camps that we get our rare earth metals, t-shirts, shoes n stuff like that from”.
That is NOT what he meant to say. If u see it in full context, he was displaying the contradictions of neo liberalism, where working conditions even for children are absolutely shit. We hate child porn (as we should), but we don’t hate the horrendous working conditions that our corporations make kids from poor countries go through. We justify stuff like this by pointing at the low cost that results from this cheap labor. This is absolutely disgusting. He was trying to say this, but got clipped out of context.
Doesn’t help that tankies absolutely hate him too (he’s a libertarian socialist who is pro Ukraine and anti CCP). I’m not saying that the guy is clean. Maybe he is a pedo. Maybe he isn’t. However, an accusation like that requires some sort of evidence. Without it, it’s just ad hominem. The amount of hatred that starts flowing after u even mention the guy’s name is unjustified imo. I agree with him on some issues, n I disagree with him on others. Then, I move on. People unfortunately don’t do that.
However, an accusation like that requires some sort of evidence
a folder containing loli
containing loli
It wasn’t containing loli, it had generic hentai and some horse stuff. I was there and saw it, about 1000 hate-watchers immediately screamed “LOLI” and it stuck.
I think to be fair the artist was a known artist who had done loli and there was a character who was underage in some show but didn’t look more or less underage than ALL hentai, but people don’t necessarily save porn based on what other works the artist has made or what the storylines say. It was a pretty desperate accusation, people REALLY need to hate people who have different opinions.
This.
That content is not my cup of tea, but at least it’s not real kids. Even if the “characters” are 18 to 1000 years old…
I’m always torn about this.
If you have those thoughts and act on it, it’s a crime and it’s awful. But if you don’t, why should we penalize you? Shouldn’t we encourage people with those thoughts not to act on it?
It’s a really dark topic, but I really wish we could properly discuss it. And if we consider how many people seem to have those thoughts, we should find a better way than to hunt them. Because to them it’s just a “damned if you do, danned if you don’t” and that’s probably gonna encourage more crimes.
Unfortunately considering how bipartisan all conversations are and how hard it is to discuss those topics, it’s gonna be awhile until we can really take a shot at improving our processes when it comes to that.
Legality aside, insofar as it is philosophically debatable, gross and pedophilic is still gross and pedophilic.
If you know someone is thinking about murdering people around them, but holds off, would that make you feel any safer? I think the focus should be helping people not want that rather than appeasement.
Yes it would. If I knew someone is thinking about murder and someone else is doing the murder, and I could choose, I would definitely take the one thinking about murder.
Now it would be great if no one was thinking about murder in the first place but the world is complex, and because we are able to choose to some degree, let’s do that instead of saying “IDC, both is bad, I’ll take any of them”.
History shows us pedophiles exist. Some have thoughts, some commit crimes.
If we imprison all of them, that just means people will never tell you about it and they resort more to repression and crimes. But if we only imprison the ones who act on it, we open the rest of them up to the possibility that everyone accepts they won’t “go away” and we could focus on making sure they don’t act on it.
And there’s potential: a combination of different therapies helping them learn to live with it in a safe way could go a long way.
If we help them, we help us.
But if we criminalize their thoughts, they will resort to crime, because that’s all they know.
I agree nobody should be imprisoned for having thoughts. I also don’t think accepting something like loli as an outlet is helpful. Emulation of problematic tendencies isn’t exactly therapeutic.
The only clip I remember of him, was how he reiterated his statement that anyone watching loli is a PDF file. That seems to be the complete opposite of your statement. Are you one of those conservatives that just hates gay people and invents shit like this? I heard that the right wing people in america like to try and associate gay people with PDF file stuff.
No, when he exposed his loli horse porn to the world I lost the respect I never actually had for him in the first place i guess.
It’s one thing to be so stupid you don’t have a different personal computer to do your weird jerk off shit. It’s another to then expose your creepy jerk off shit to your audience. It’s yet another third thing that your audience is willing to just ignore it and keep watching. Gross!
But he didn’t have any loli porn in his tax folder though. He only had anime chicks with big tits.
How does one lose respect they don’t have?
I was being facetious, I was at best neutral before horse gate.
Humanity has a true fascination with phallic symbols.
The Washington Monument, tribal fertility statues, ancient cultures, billionaire spacecraft, and modern art. Long understood to represent power and virility.
In that context, as horses are endowed with such a phallus as large as your arm, one could be forgiven for the fascination.
Fascination does not equate with action however.
I have an autistic fascination with trains, which also represent power. That doesn’t mean that I want to fornicate with one. I mean, how would you even approach a train for that? I am tempted to google train rule34, but I must remain pure!
It’s always projection with these people.
To be fair. Cats are adorable.
Ye, I remember him arguing that some tankie was supporting holocaust because the tanke was talking about some stuff that happened in Soviet without talking about the Holocaust (in that movie), then moving on to another movie where he misgendered detransitioned people because, as he said, didnt aknowledge them being cis, and then ending up being against decolonialism because talking about ways to correct the wrong made by colonialism for some reason was white genocide or something like that, and then I stumbled over him arguing for Israel keeping their settlements in Palestine, even if he said the opposite in another video
He never discuss with others, he always misrepresent their viewpoint because he want to fuel his ego by “winning” debates, never actually learning shit from people who knows more than him
Care to post context? Otherwise this is just the petulant whining of someone who has a bad take.
