ALSO, comedians, which let’s get something straight, Peter Coffin in NO WAY is, he’s not an actor, he doesn’t do stand up, he doesn’t write comedy, he doesn’t do ANYTHING that can be considered even REMOTELY comedy, comedians involve THEMSELVES in the joke. Dave Chappelle’s Juicey Smollet bit isn’t a him laying into a guy, it’s a bit about HIS reaction to the story. Peter confuses being a bullying dickhead with “comedy”. He sees himself as somehow distinct from his Alt Right clods but he isn’t.
I honestly believe he missunderstood destiny Instead of 'you say i use big words to confuse' he understood it as 'i use big words when i debate but you guys claim it is to confuse' Im not a native and pretty high so that sentence got pretty weird, do you get what im saying? xD
@@MrJeo29 I think Destiny made it pretty clear and Peter took it personally. Or Peter just forgot what he said and what Destiny was referring to in his video.
Peter: ...you made a Google Docs dude! You're acting like this is an important thing in your life, it's not! ......did Peter forget that he made a 40 minute long video (not taking into account the time it took him to shoot, edit, or write a script) cuz he was buttmad after a debate with Destiny in which he backpedaled on pretty much all of his points?
I think Peter's point while not well articulated was more: if you're going to take this seriously then take it seriously. Do the leg work, read some literature and make your own conclusions. Destiny has a bad habit of strawmanning left talking points and shifting goal posts. Look at his debate with Burgis. Not everything has to be a debate. Destiny does not have all the answers and the fact that he approaches every conversation as though he has the truth is hindering potential growth. If destiny is so confident why doesn't he debate Wolff?
@@anthonynonapplicable6045 Except when Peter said "You're acting like this is an important thing in your life, it's not!" he was talking about his own video on Destiny, not how serious Destiny is about research or debates. You're being overgenerous to Peter who blatantly employed fallacies, strawmen, non sequiturs, and of course there's the backpedaling. Can't tell if he is dishonest and buttmad or stupid and buttmad. As for debating Richard Wolff, Destiny probably isn't confident enough to have a debate. He's probably worried Wolff will make him look as dumb as he made Peter Coffin look.
No Bullshit: You're so dumb bro. You're just dumb. You just say these dumb little sentences to sound smart. You're dumb bro. Peter: YOU'VE MADE ME TIRED! THAT'S WHAT YOU'VE DONE!
in terms of belligerence and obnoxiousness, ya i could see it being on par at times - but I can't accept the comparison because Peter misses the main (and basically only) thing that Tonkasaw is known for: being an internet tough guy. Peter didn't say "I'd kick your ass" "beta male wimp I'd wreck your face" over and over again while bragging about how tough he is/all his "MMA training" like Tonka always did.
@@alex-qd6of it's only a horseshoe if you don't understand that nazis are right-wing socialists, and commies are left-wing socialists. Nazis and commies aren't polar opposites, they are very close to one another on the political spectrum. People who don't see this can only explain the similarities by appealing to the horseshoe.
I think it's moronic how Coffin expected that his convoluted idea of representing numerous different people solely through the image of Destiny should have been apparent. In his video it blatantly looks like he was trying to strawman or mischaracterize Destiny, so Destiny wasn't wrong in thinking it was an attempt at smearing him.
The way he repeated the same lousy gags over and over again (i.e. The streamer being abhorrently arrogant, the Bits popping on the screen ad nauseam, etc) also hint at Coffin producing this video while under a fit of anger and a damaged ego.
Kevin Gallagher yeah, I was baffled by that comment. Like good entertainers have some concept of what the audience sees, so either he needs to admit he’s a talentless moron and not in any way a comedian, or stop doing this altogether. Coffin is exactly the kind of person he rails against.
It's really dumb especially considering even back when this dropped I could point to obvious examples. The least politically charged example I can think of is Knowing Better when he did a video on para socialism & online creators he parodied & dressed up as a popular person who represented what that segment was discussing. If he had just have stayed dressed as Boogie while doing all the other intro parodies it would have absolutely sounded like he was putting other peoples words in Boogies mouth.
“You use big words to obfuscate” “Okay then stop me when I use big words and I’ll restate it using smaller words” “OMG you just said you use big words wow you’re sooo smart ROFL!!!!”
Okay it's kinda hard to compare making fun of serious groups of people that can be empowered through those jokes and peter making fun of destiny. Now don't get me wrong peter came off really stupid here but i don't even think destiny was literally trying to compare the 2 as if they are similar.
@@moonie1825 I’ll bite the bullit here and say they’re very much the same. The seriousness might not, I agree, but “it’s just comedy” is never a good argument when you’re criticizing a group or a person.
qroshjang oZ Is....is Nebraska Steve a play on Indiana Jones? Cause I’m totally gonna start using that as a play in Indiana Jones 😂 That shit is golden man.
To mimic one person and then cover a whole range of different people's views and then say well I wasn't trying to paint you with them is so fucking weasel
What was achieved here? Peter needs to step away from this. I love Peter's important Docs series. Destiny has every right to call Peter out for his last stink piece tho it was clearly aimed at Destiny the "it's a joke" and "It's an aggregate" is very weaksauce.
I listen to lots of these Destiny debates, and I don't get the big words accusation. I have literally never thought Destiny used an abundance of big words. Is the general audience so dumb that they think he is? I feel like he has always been incredibly clear with every point he makes, even when I don't totally agree with him.
Yeah his vocabulary is pretty standard but there's an awful lot of people with a substandard vocabulary. It's not their fault but it's more common than you'd expect. It's partly because you can get by with a pretty small vocabulary and society tends not to encourage that kind of learning. It does no one any favours as it limits people's capacity to express themselves and encourages elitism and ego stroking in those that have wider vocabularies.
@@Crispman_777 Totally agree. There are times where something Destiny is discussing goes over my head, but it's typically not a word issue, but rather a concept or idea that is beyond my current understanding. Otherwise I keep up just fine, even when he's speeding along.
Kinda Agree plus he explains those "Big words" if it every comes out to people in an easy understandable way. I guess people just hate his personality.
I like Peter Coffin's content a lot but... god this is already painful and it hasn't even been 5 minutes. Their last video was a trainwreck mistake and even if their criticisms of Destiny were correct, it's terrible optics to have a relatively calm debate and then make an angry video response making fun of and strawmanning your opponent afterwards. It's embarrassing.
Noncompete did the same shit. It gives me some hesitation dealing with left/breadtube seeing how dishonest they can be when they dont like what someone has to say. At least they don't send you death threats (as far as Im aware) or try to doxx your kids/family like the Alt-Right do
Coffin literally says in the video he used Destiny because he knew Destiny would respond. Coffin is a joke. No integrity at all. "It's just a meme, bro" is Coffin's defence after slandering the competition. You can't make this stuff up.
@@BlakeZeb yeah i got a whooooole different perspective of him after this stream. It really shines through who he is and if this is what he does, one really need to reconsider if his stance on different points are valid even. Sorry for my bad english.
I've been trying to watch this video for about 45 minutes now, but I'm only 6:30 in because I have to pause every time Peter opens his mouth. I thought he recognized that he's awful in a debate, and had moved on with his life. I don't agree with him on much, but I've always respected what he has to say because he always gives me something to think about. Now I just feel foolish for ever listening to male, communist Brittany Pettibone.
@@MrJeo29 LOL ok, so i'm actually nowhere near the left side of the spectrum at all, but absolutely completely agree. he is the least funny "comedian" in the history of comedy. literally "the opposite of funny" would be a better description of anything he says.
I'm a leftist, but watching this debate I cringed at how similar Coffin's arguments are to alt righters and cripto-nazists. That was extremely disapointing and an x-ray look inside the deep crisis the left is in right now.
Drawing a false comparison? I'm not trying to defend what he did, but to say his defense of a caricature of destiny is equivalent to what richard Spencer does strikes you as a good point? I'm sure it made sense to destiny at the time, but I fail to see the distinction. Even if I grant right wingers say it's a joke in defense of horrendous views it still isn't an appropriate comparison . Seems disengenuous of destiny to draw such a comparison tbh. Does destiny not understand how satire works?
I was a fan of Destiny and Coffin when this first debate dropped. I remember thinking at the time Coffin didn’t do THAT badly. Watching this 2 years later I see this with completely different eyes
It's important to be able to learn and reflect about where you were years ago. Peter was a bad advocate years ago, and these debates were the first crack in the facade
Coffin was obviously getting emotional in this video but I wanna counter the point Destiny made about climate change being too multi-faceted to just be handled by a binary democratic approval. Unless Destiny thinks people would do absolutely nothing to mitigate climate change or the problem is even more extremely urgent than it already is considering the IPCC report. Democracy is in favour of mitigating it with at least a small carbon tax. Slowing down the negative effects of climate change will at least give people the time to see the negative effects materialize and that will change even more minds about what sacrifices need to be made for the climate and it'll slowly dissolve the propaganda and lobbying of fossil fuel companies which muck up the democratic process. We should be looking to educate, minimize corporate propaganda and power and get rid of obstacles to democracy like gerrymandering rather than blaming democracy.
Not exaclty, what he is claiming is that his parody of Destiny is just a joke, and that the political points are separate. In other words, it is a framing device rather than a hitpiece. Which does not mean that it wasn't a stupid idea or a massive strawman. Which it was.
theserfstv's chat all of a sudden turns into a bunch of right wing gamer bros.... 'destiny's only point is that he's offended'.... dude i thought these were woke leftists
The big words thing at the beginning had to an intentional misunderstanding from Peter. There is no fucking way you could misinterpret something THAT hard.
This was absolutely fucking cathartic. The end of the discussion with Peter was the best thing I've ever seen on this channel. Destiny put someone in their place and they knew it for once. Cathartic bliss
What Coffin doesn't understand is that making a comedic response to politics doesn't mean completely misrepresenting what was said by the person. That is why the 'comedy' shows that he listed are dying.
22:00 It's really suspect to call out someone for being themselves then when they're willing to accommodate your complaint/characterization, you reject it. It comes off as spineless. Being petty and passive is not a good look.
Nothing wrong with using big words either. It can come across as trying too hard in extreme cases but it’s not like Destiny is reading from a dictionary.
Essentially this boils down to: Coffin was too lazy to dress up like other people in the video to respond to their arguments. He couldn't be bothered to dress up as people like Shapiro to respond to Shapiro's points, so he just stayed dressed as Destiny, without giving a shit that people watching the video will assume that Destiny is making those points.
Shithead checklist: 1. ) It's just performative! 2. ) *laughs, like others are laughing with me*. 3. ) Non-sequitur "Big words". 4. ) Refusal to cooperate to come to any meaningful understanding. 5. ) Refuses to enter 'serious' dicussion under the delusion that appealing to being non-serious somehow makes you a big brain. It's 8:22 at the moment, and I probably missed stuff, like the blatant lying or goal shifting, but that would bring us to at least one shitter a minute, which is quite a lot of shit for the list.
His uncooperativeness and hostility are really jarring. Well, not that much when you know the character (which I didn't before). Sleuthing the guy on Google, it appears Coffin has a history of being incredibly self-centered and loyal only to himself.
He literally just said “I always get accused of x tactic to win debates; if you feel I’m doing that to you, call me out on it” And this dude just has a huge issue with that
Funny jokes Peter could have used: 1. Every time "destiny" comes on screen, it's played back 2x speed. 2. Ban tankies from the chat 3. Have girls randomly pop out of closets and shit ala quagmire. 4. Say borderline socialist stuff "but I'm a capitalist" 5. Market solutions for everyone as the next point. 6. Banning tankies in chat. 7. Relating half of points to epic mushroom dose. 8. The twitch bits was a funny bit though.
having a girl come out of his closet and the "but im a capitalist" bit would have made me cry laughing if he was funny enough to implement a joke like that.
lol you dope! the point is the hypocrisy where peter coffin claims that Destiny is emotionally draining whereas he would fucking shit his pants if someone would make such a mean spirited video about him as the one he made.
I never loved peter but I used to watch his videos because they were ok. After I watched this video I immediately unsubbed and havent watched him since
idk why american lefties think they have to only accept single-payer healthcare when a multi payer with a public option would be so much better than what they have now. to answer peter’s question, in the uk things like dental and vision have a low standard cost on the nhs for each necessary procedure. but if you are on a low-income and can’t afford it, you get dental and vision free... i guess it’s wrong that rich ppl can get better healthcare and procedures the nhs won’t cover like anything cosmetic? but the nhs is great. i’m broke as hell and i never have to worry abt my healthcare. i know that ppl will work hard to take care of me. private healthcare existing doesn’t affect that.
Can I just apologize for Peter Coffin on behalf of EVERYBODY on the left. Idk why he does this. Idk why he writes his little books. Idk why he vomits nonsense all over his RUclips Channel. Idk anyone who likes this guy.
I honestly thought I was the only one, I’ve felt like his jargon filled rhetoric is the emperor’s new clothes for a while now. Half the time his tweets are just word salad to me.
People should really stop with the "Left" and "Right" thing. Coffin is his own person: he's not "the Left" and his opinions aren't reputable expressions of what can be understood as "Leftist" views of how the world should be. This whole shtick of "the Left said" or "the Right wants" is so fucking cringy.
DrummerDucky That may be YOUR opinion (also it’s totally my opinion) But the fact is Peter is one of the patron saints of fucking left tube. He’s repping the left in this debate. He’s cowardly, uninformed, and beta af! I always try to avoid saying “Nyeah the right says x and y!” But here, in full view of Destiny’s liberal ass audience? Peter makes the left look like garbage.
@@definitiveentertainment1658 I agree with you, but for the sake of concluding my point, I think Peter only makes the Left look like a dumpster fire to irrational people. It stands to logic that no one can adequately personifies a vague, opaque blanket term for a swath of political orientations.
DrummerDucky Yeah but my point is that ‘logic’ isn’t what either of us is really talking about. At least it’s not what I’m talking about. It’s about public perception, right? So like I would assume most people are irrational and tribalist. And probably More so when hearing someone from “the left”. That’s why Peter’s on. That’s why Peter attacked Destiny. Because this is all happening within the very public context of this “Destiny Trashes Leftists” phase.
Peter was absolutely pathetic, wow. I can’t believe that he got triggered that much about Steven laying down some ground rules while he said it aggressively would’ve made this debate actually simple.
bro what the f, destiny really ate this guys, a lib guy with a girl name and a high voice destroying someone and breaking their core like a menace is refreshing
Destiny should have asked "if I made a 40 minute response to your points with a character that looked like, talked like and acted like you with your background, and I made a referemce to you having had a fake girlfriend, would you just say that video was an agregate of lefties on RUclips? Or was it PRETTY OBVIOUSLY targeted at you?"
Wow that escalated quickly! Really shows how valuable the "debate"-format is. And also how great it is that we can only discuss serious issues through "comedy".
The only way a debate could work, I think, would be with (1) a live team of fact-checkers (2) a moderator that raises every logical fallacies (3) both debaters share the aim that they wish to broaden their understanding of the subject. In reality, virtually every debates just serve to show off the debaters' intellectual vivacity, which *is* entertaining, but that's about everything you get out of them.

To sum up most of this discussion:
- Why didnt you just use Ben Shapiro instead of me in this video?
- Because Ben Shapiro wouldnt reply back.
Mmm very very true

"Big words" == Taking things seriously & saying "if I'm confusing, I'll explain it differently".
Only a few minutes in and it's already super rough.
I nearly shut it off after 2 minutes; Coffin's vigorous hostility is insufferable.
Yea Destiny went raw on him in this bitch lmao
You already fucking know this will be a good one. Fuck me this guy, what does he do. He is like jesse Lee peterson level. Fucking hell
@DrummerDucky
Exactly.I did and had to skip around.
@Sean the original debate was a few weeks ago, should definitely watch that, then the video that was just put up and then this one.
Peter: ...you made a Google Docs dude! You're acting like this is an important thing in your life, it's not!
......did Peter forget that he made a 40 minute long video (not taking into account the time it took him to shoot, edit, or write a script) cuz he was buttmad after a debate with Destiny in which he backpedaled on pretty much all of his points?
Holy shit that would have been a great response lol
I think Peter's point while not well articulated was more: if you're going to take this seriously then take it seriously. Do the leg work, read some literature and make your own conclusions.
Destiny has a bad habit of strawmanning left talking points and shifting goal posts. Look at his debate with Burgis. Not everything has to be a debate. Destiny does not have all the answers and the fact that he approaches every conversation as though he has the truth is hindering potential growth.
If destiny is so confident why doesn't he debate Wolff?
Dammit, now I seriously prefer the term buttmad to butthurt
@@anthonynonapplicable6045 Except when Peter said "You're acting like this is an important thing in your life, it's not!" he was talking about his own video on Destiny, not how serious Destiny is about research or debates. You're being overgenerous to Peter who blatantly employed fallacies, strawmen, non sequiturs, and of course there's the backpedaling. Can't tell if he is dishonest and buttmad or stupid and buttmad.
As for debating Richard Wolff, Destiny probably isn't confident enough to have a debate. He's probably worried Wolff will make him look as dumb as he made Peter Coffin look.
Big LUL
Peter Coffin got "emotionally TIRED" in this debate
Coffin should be debating NoBullshit.. he is more on he's league.
No Bullshit: You're so dumb bro. You're just dumb. You just say these dumb little sentences to sound smart. You're dumb bro.
Peter: YOU'VE MADE ME TIRED! THAT'S WHAT YOU'VE DONE!
His meritocracy video is ... really good. Imo... At least.
This is literally the left-wing tonkasaw LOL
TheAppSmasher not false
Who is this
@@beyoncehadoneofthebest I was referring to Peter coffin I understand it would be more appropriate to say "he is"
We need to confirm if peter knows what state he lives in.
in terms of belligerence and obnoxiousness, ya i could see it being on par at times - but I can't accept the comparison because Peter misses the main (and basically only) thing that Tonkasaw is known for: being an internet tough guy. Peter didn't say "I'd kick your ass" "beta male wimp I'd wreck your face" over and over again while bragging about how tough he is/all his "MMA training" like Tonka always did.
Coffin's spite and lack of self-awareness are nearly as painful as his "comedy".
He was so monumentally asspained that he couldn't perform in his previous debate with Destiny. The video was just sad.
OK WHAT YOU'VE DONE HERE IS MAKE HIM TIRED.
Communism has been rescheduled after the nap.
I think you might be projecting there bucko.
@@anthonynonapplicable6045 Explain.
The Left: "it's annoying when the right uses the It's a joke defence to dismiss criticism"
Peter Coffin: "But Destiny it was just a joke haha"
The horseshoe.
@@1997lordofdoom its looking more and more plausable after every debate hehe
The right uses "its a joke" to dismiss any criticism of the joke or the joker, that was not what happened here, but whatever works for you buddy.
@@alex-qd6of it's only a horseshoe if you don't understand that nazis are right-wing socialists, and commies are left-wing socialists.
Nazis and commies aren't polar opposites, they are very close to one another on the political spectrum.
People who don't see this can only explain the similarities by appealing to the horseshoe.
@@ksilva2848 The right uses the "it's a joke" excuse to say shit and not having to actually stand by it. That it's exactly what it's happening here.
I think it's moronic how Coffin expected that his convoluted idea of representing numerous different people solely through the image of Destiny should have been apparent. In his video it blatantly looks like he was trying to strawman or mischaracterize Destiny, so Destiny wasn't wrong in thinking it was an attempt at smearing him.
The way he repeated the same lousy gags over and over again (i.e. The streamer being abhorrently arrogant, the Bits popping on the screen ad nauseam, etc) also hint at Coffin producing this video while under a fit of anger and a damaged ego.
BIG WORDS GUYS LUL
im trolling please dont hate me
Kevin Gallagher yeah, I was baffled by that comment. Like good entertainers have some concept of what the audience sees, so either he needs to admit he’s a talentless moron and not in any way a comedian, or stop doing this altogether. Coffin is exactly the kind of person he rails against.
It's really dumb especially considering even back when this dropped I could point to obvious examples.
The least politically charged example I can think of is Knowing Better when he did a video on para socialism & online creators he parodied & dressed up as a popular person who represented what that segment was discussing. If he had just have stayed dressed as Boogie while doing all the other intro parodies it would have absolutely sounded like he was putting other peoples words in Boogies mouth.
@@obinga5685funnier than anything this "satirist" said here or his hit piece.
“You use big words to obfuscate”
“Okay then stop me when I use big words and I’ll restate it using smaller words”
“OMG you just said you use big words wow you’re sooo smart ROFL!!!!”
Just got to the point where he said people wont know it's you. He literally hearted a comment saying it was a hit piece on his video.
lol I can believe that.
"It's just comedy" is the same argument people on /pol make for White power meme's
Okay it's kinda hard to compare making fun of serious groups of people that can be empowered through those jokes and peter making fun of destiny. Now don't get me wrong peter came off really stupid here but i don't even think destiny was literally trying to compare the 2 as if they are similar.
TRUE
@@moonie1825 okay maybe not the same exactly. But they both seem like a deflection from actual criticism.
@@moonie1825 I’ll bite the bullit here and say they’re very much the same. The seriousness might not, I agree, but “it’s just comedy” is never a good argument when you’re criticizing a group or a person.
Peter is such a weasel.
The hope of the revolution... .
Sleazy, unprincipled, feckless piece of sh*t.
I love that this debate has more views than Coffin’s video
_"I'm tired"_ you can say that again

Holy shit, I didn't think Peter was this disingenuous. Woof, this isn't a good look.
Bark, you can say that again.
To mimic one person and then cover a whole range of different people's views and then say well I wasn't trying to paint you with them is so fucking weasel
What was achieved here? Peter needs to step away from this. I love Peter's important Docs series. Destiny has every right to call Peter out for his last stink piece tho it was clearly aimed at Destiny the "it's a joke" and "It's an aggregate" is very weaksauce.

After Peter left The Serfs was a good listen with destiny
They seemed 100x more willing to actually listen to the substance of points and actually agree to disagree in a meaningful way
@@YouShouldAim Was it the serfs that were willing to listen, or was it density?
And then the n-word-Edgy jokes happened and the Serfs lost all credibility.
I listen to lots of these Destiny debates, and I don't get the big words accusation. I have literally never thought Destiny used an abundance of big words. Is the general audience so dumb that they think he is? I feel like he has always been incredibly clear with every point he makes, even when I don't totally agree with him.
"incredibly" okay big brain, just say very 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@zacbrugger3240 lol
Yeah his vocabulary is pretty standard but there's an awful lot of people with a substandard vocabulary. It's not their fault but it's more common than you'd expect. It's partly because you can get by with a pretty small vocabulary and society tends not to encourage that kind of learning. It does no one any favours as it limits people's capacity to express themselves and encourages elitism and ego stroking in those that have wider vocabularies.
@@Crispman_777 Totally agree. There are times where something Destiny is discussing goes over my head, but it's typically not a word issue, but rather a concept or idea that is beyond my current understanding. Otherwise I keep up just fine, even when he's speeding along.
Kinda Agree plus he explains those "Big words" if it every comes out to people in an easy understandable way. I guess people just hate his personality.

I like Peter Coffin's content a lot but... god this is already painful and it hasn't even been 5 minutes.
Their last video was a trainwreck mistake and even if their criticisms of Destiny were correct, it's terrible optics to have a relatively calm debate and then make an angry video response making fun of and strawmanning your opponent afterwards. It's embarrassing.
Same
Noncompete did the same shit. It gives me some hesitation dealing with left/breadtube seeing how dishonest they can be when they dont like what someone has to say. At least they don't send you death threats (as far as Im aware) or try to doxx your kids/family like the Alt-Right do
@@PiPArtemis They might be leftists but their shitty personal behavior does not represent the wider range of breadtubers.
Hahaha breadtube.. it's been a while since I heard that name.
Coffin literally says in the video he used Destiny because he knew Destiny would respond. Coffin is a joke. No integrity at all. "It's just a meme, bro" is Coffin's defence after slandering the competition. You can't make this stuff up.
Dfq YOU doing here?
That video was so bad
Peter Coffin is a real wierd guy.
I didn't realize he was doing comedy
Yeah, through the course of the 2 conversations Peter’s lack of substance as a leftist got exposed.
Ronald Likström for sure. I liked some of his videos here and there. But Jesus both of his discussions with destiny were horrible
Its almost as if he is emulating crowders comedic style
@@BlakeZeb yeah i got a whooooole different perspective of him after this stream.
It really shines through who he is and if this is what he does, one really need to reconsider if his stance on different points are valid even.
Sorry for my bad english.
Coffin is like the debate equivalent of CinemaSins if they ever got confronted by the people who actually made a film they trashed on RUclips.
They spent 20 minutes on arguing big words.
I've been trying to watch this video for about 45 minutes now, but I'm only 6:30 in because I have to pause every time Peter opens his mouth. I thought he recognized that he's awful in a debate, and had moved on with his life. I don't agree with him on much, but I've always respected what he has to say because he always gives me something to think about. Now I just feel foolish for ever listening to male, communist Brittany Pettibone.
does it count as comedy if no one thinks it's funny...?
Thats the question stephen crowder asks himself every day
@@MrJeo29 LOL ok, so i'm actually nowhere near the left side of the spectrum at all, but absolutely completely agree. he is the least funny "comedian" in the history of comedy. literally "the opposite of funny" would be a better description of anything he says.

@@maximthefox tbh Peter Coffin's content is usually much better than how he appears whenever interacting with Destiny.
This was so embarrassing that I unsubscribed from Peter Coffin.
@@moyayaille2609 it really isn't though. All his videos on Jordan Peterson are dishonest to the core.
Lukas Maier everybody making a video on Jordan Peterson is accused of strawmanning lmao
I'm a leftist, but watching this debate I cringed at how similar Coffin's arguments are to alt righters and cripto-nazists. That was extremely disapointing and an x-ray look inside the deep crisis the left is in right now.
Destiny lands such a good point at 50:26
"Interesting." Literally same
naK Leon “interesting” *quick topic change*
Drawing a false comparison? I'm not trying to defend what he did, but to say his defense of a caricature of destiny is equivalent to what richard Spencer does strikes you as a good point? I'm sure it made sense to destiny at the time, but I fail to see the distinction. Even if I grant right wingers say it's a joke in defense of horrendous views it still isn't an appropriate comparison . Seems disengenuous of destiny to draw such a comparison tbh. Does destiny not understand how satire works?
I was a fan of Destiny and Coffin when this first debate dropped. I remember thinking at the time Coffin didn’t do THAT badly. Watching this 2 years later I see this with completely different eyes
It's important to be able to learn and reflect about where you were years ago. Peter was a bad advocate years ago, and these debates were the first crack in the facade
It normally takes longer for things to go sideways. It started sideways
Imagine hearing "I will explain any confusing words I use" and then translating it to "Oh you think you have better words than me?"
Coffin was obviously getting emotional in this video but I wanna counter the point Destiny made about climate change being too multi-faceted to just be handled by a binary democratic approval.
Unless Destiny thinks people would do absolutely nothing to mitigate climate change or the problem is even more extremely urgent than it already is considering the IPCC report. Democracy is in favour of mitigating it with at least a small carbon tax. Slowing down the negative effects of climate change will at least give people the time to see the negative effects materialize and that will change even more minds about what sacrifices need to be made for the climate and it'll slowly dissolve the propaganda and lobbying of fossil fuel companies which muck up the democratic process. We should be looking to educate, minimize corporate propaganda and power and get rid of obstacles to democracy like gerrymandering rather than blaming democracy.
this debate launched peter coffin on a spiral he hasnt been able to recover from ever since
@@rinneganofrage7206 his twitter too
Actually wild how much this hurt him. Changes my whole view of debates and engagement.
Is Peter's whole defense "it's just a joke bro"
There's no agenda pushing for political points. Just a silly meaningless joke.
It's like texting your crush a lewd remarks then claiming 10 minutes later that your phone was hacked. Foolproof ninja technique.
Not exaclty, what he is claiming is that his parody of Destiny is just a joke, and that the political points are separate. In other words, it is a framing device rather than a hitpiece.
Which does not mean that it wasn't a stupid idea or a massive strawman. Which it was.
Because he knows that he has no substantive knowledge to back up his statements
@@moyayaille2609 exactly
theserfstv's chat all of a sudden turns into a bunch of right wing gamer bros.... 'destiny's only point is that he's offended'.... dude i thought these were woke leftists
linking to Peter Coffin, suggesting to follow them when it's very hard to do after listening to this. oof
The big words thing at the beginning had to an intentional misunderstanding from Peter. There is no fucking way you could misinterpret something THAT hard.
This was absolutely fucking cathartic. The end of the discussion with Peter was the best thing I've ever seen on this channel. Destiny put someone in their place and they knew it for once. Cathartic bliss
9:00 in and I'm tapping out. I tried y'all.
This is the most aggressive callout in history with a heart from Coffin in his own comments yet he doesn't care? This guy.
What Coffin doesn't understand is that making a comedic response to politics doesn't mean completely misrepresenting what was said by the person. That is why the 'comedy' shows that he listed are dying.
22:00 It's really suspect to call out someone for being themselves then when they're willing to accommodate your complaint/characterization, you reject it. It comes off as spineless. Being petty and passive is not a good look.
Nothing wrong with using big words either. It can come across as trying too hard in extreme cases but it’s not like Destiny is reading from a dictionary.
Essentially this boils down to: Coffin was too lazy to dress up like other people in the video to respond to their arguments. He couldn't be bothered to dress up as people like Shapiro to respond to Shapiro's points, so he just stayed dressed as Destiny, without giving a shit that people watching the video will assume that Destiny is making those points.
So....I respected Coffin's ideas before I watched this. Now I'm quite glad his channel is dying and fewer people are like him on the left
Shithead checklist:
1. ) It's just performative!
2. ) *laughs, like others are laughing with me*.
3. ) Non-sequitur "Big words".
4. ) Refusal to cooperate to come to any meaningful understanding.
5. ) Refuses to enter 'serious' dicussion under the delusion that appealing to being non-serious somehow makes you a big brain.
It's 8:22 at the moment, and I probably missed stuff, like the blatant lying or goal shifting, but that would bring us to at least one shitter a minute, which is quite a lot of shit for the list.
His uncooperativeness and hostility are really jarring. Well, not that much when you know the character (which I didn't before). Sleuthing the guy on Google, it appears Coffin has a history of being incredibly self-centered and loyal only to himself.
He literally just said “I always get accused of x tactic to win debates; if you feel I’m doing that to you, call me out on it”
And this dude just has a huge issue with that
I always knew mr Coffin was a bit full of himself, but this is just funny
Peter Coffin got put in a coffin in this debate
Funny jokes Peter could have used:
1. Every time "destiny" comes on screen, it's played back 2x speed.
2. Ban tankies from the chat
3. Have girls randomly pop out of closets and shit ala quagmire.
4. Say borderline socialist stuff "but I'm a capitalist"
5. Market solutions for everyone as the next point.
6. Banning tankies in chat.
7. Relating half of points to epic mushroom dose.
8. The twitch bits was a funny bit though.
having a girl come out of his closet and the "but im a capitalist" bit would have made me cry laughing if he was funny enough to implement a joke like that.

idk why american lefties think they have to only accept single-payer healthcare when a multi payer with a public option would be so much better than what they have now.
to answer peter’s question, in the uk things like dental and vision have a low standard cost on the nhs for each necessary procedure. but if you are on a low-income and can’t afford it, you get dental and vision free...
i guess it’s wrong that rich ppl can get better healthcare and procedures the nhs won’t cover like anything cosmetic? but the nhs is great. i’m broke as hell and i never have to worry abt my healthcare. i know that ppl will work hard to take care of me. private healthcare existing doesn’t affect that.
The only funny thing about Coffin is that he actually think he is funny.
a year later and this video (and by extension peter themself) is still one of the most infuriating things I have ever listened to
I have never seen anything from Peter Coffin that impressed me or came off in a way that looks like he has any idea what hes talking about.
when does he say you've made me tired
42:03
Destiny altered Coffin's circadian rhythm without his consent in this debate.
Can I just apologize for Peter Coffin on behalf of EVERYBODY on the left.
Idk why he does this.
Idk why he writes his little books.
Idk why he vomits nonsense all over his RUclips Channel.
Idk anyone who likes this guy.
I honestly thought I was the only one, I’ve felt like his jargon filled rhetoric is the emperor’s new clothes for a while now. Half the time his tweets are just word salad to me.
People should really stop with the "Left" and "Right" thing. Coffin is his own person: he's not "the Left" and his opinions aren't reputable expressions of what can be understood as "Leftist" views of how the world should be.
This whole shtick of "the Left said" or "the Right wants" is so fucking cringy.
DrummerDucky That may be YOUR opinion (also it’s totally my opinion)
But the fact is Peter is one of the patron saints of fucking left tube.
He’s repping the left in this debate.
He’s cowardly, uninformed, and beta af!
I always try to avoid saying “Nyeah the right says x and y!”
But here, in full view of Destiny’s liberal ass audience?
Peter makes the left look like garbage.
@@definitiveentertainment1658 I agree with you, but for the sake of concluding my point, I think Peter only makes the Left look like a dumpster fire to irrational people. It stands to logic that no one can adequately personifies a vague, opaque blanket term for a swath of political orientations.
DrummerDucky Yeah but my point is that ‘logic’ isn’t what either of us is really talking about.
At least it’s not what I’m talking about.
It’s about public perception, right?
So like I would assume most people are irrational and tribalist.
And probably More so when hearing someone from “the left”.
That’s why Peter’s on.
That’s why Peter attacked Destiny.
Because this is all happening within the very public context of this “Destiny Trashes Leftists” phase.
Well done. Coffin made an absolute fool of himself. That caricature in his video was shameful.
every time Peter laughs, those are laughs of pain.
“You’re making google docs!”……..okay let’s see the script for your video then lmao
Peter was absolutely pathetic, wow. I can’t believe that he got triggered that much about Steven laying down some ground rules while he said it aggressively would’ve made this debate actually simple.

"Aren't you like, a book author?" - destiny
I didn't realize I liked destiny so much.
Destiny should have asked "if I made a 40 minute response to your points with a character that looked like, talked like and acted like you with your background, and I made a referemce to you having had a fake girlfriend, would you just say that video was an agregate of lefties on RUclips? Or was it PRETTY OBVIOUSLY targeted at you?"
2016 alt right debating vibes. 😎 Nebraska Steve is back. 😉
Kinda losing respect for Coffin. I remember the video having decent points, but that's painful.

Wow that escalated quickly! Really shows how valuable the "debate"-format is. And also how great it is that we can only discuss serious issues through "comedy".
