    I wasn't going to upload this debate review because it starts off slow and Destiny even AFKed. But as things went on, it got spicier and there were a lot of good memes.
    Also chose not to edit out portions like Destiny's debates so all the context is there.

    Vegan: "Hey guys you shouldn't eat meat" **takes a bite of a steak**

      Wait are you trying to make a hypocritcal argument because it doesn't matter if you call out the hypocrisy of these actions. In modern day do you know how difficult it would be for a vegan to be expected to stick to a vegan diet? Not to mention that fundamentally my actions of promoting veganism is providing the exact same net good regardless of if I personcally consume meat or not. Now it would be better if I didn't eat meat and for that you could say my actions are bit dull however the moral prescribing of my actions of eating meat are not more valid simply because my ideology is of a different nature. Vegans should bot be expected to not eat meat simply because or ideology morally loads the action. This is not pragmatic in the fight for power. Non vegans have been eating meat for centuries they don't care if an individuak eats meat or not and that is why they have been winning. We cannot expect different from our fellow vegan as we will never win if we do. Simply promoting veganism is enough and if you choose to eat meat that is a personally decision that we should try to softly convince you out of but should never be expected of anyone nor should they be judged for it otherwise they might choose to not be vegan.

      Centrists and righties shaming leftists into holding their own standard doesn't work exactly *because* other leftists with the same standards refuse to criticize their peers. By giving them a safe harbor, they shut down the ability of their own movement to enforce minimal, sane bottom lines, let alone the ability of people outside their movement to do the same.
      Ironically, Vaush would probably benefit from enforcing those very modest standards, because he meets them and Hasan doesn't, and acknowledging Hasan's failings would drive Hasan's leftist audience towards people who don't have those same failings.
      Criticism would drive Hasan's audience towards more morally consistent leftists unless the audience don't really believe in their alleged values. It would be reasonable for Vaush to throw up a smokescreen and try to protect Hasan from criticism if he thought it was all a big LARP and there'd be a net negative to his clout farm if people got fed up with the whole community due to having to conform to real standards and values. It's almost like you can claim to be anything or believe anything until your own dollar bills and personal comfort are at stake.
      That's crazy talk, though, I'm sure it's just that Vaush feels very strongly about Hasan's right to be immoral and lazy while he's hording donos that could have gone to activism/charity for yachts.

      Even if Hasan for some reason doesn't believe in charity (which is actively an actively anti-worker position for the bourgeoisie to hold but whatever) he could also sink his massive excess wealth into activism and campaign funding to encourage wealth redistribution through the legal system, and encourage other e-riche to do the same.
      In reality Hasan doesn't believe in change at all, it's today's brand of designer coat, and Vaush doesn't believe there are enough other people who actually believe in change to outweigh the crowd who are just following Hasan for the aesthetics.

      To be super charitable, utilitarianism doesn't really talk in terms of supererogatory actions and that is okay. But the reason why it's fine is because you're always obligated to do the thing that brings about the most utility. nothing is supererogatory because everything is obligatory. I don't know how Vaush got from that to "we should never condemn anyone for anything."

    • @trevorhill1688
      @trevorhill1688 2 года назад +17

      ​@@kelseymaypole7048 You're exactly right. Vaush was correct when he said that classical utilitarianism can't distinguish between superogatory and obligatory actions, but as you said, that's because you are always obligated to maxmize utility because that's what it means to be a utilitarian in the classical sense. In fact, there is a common criticism directed at utilitarianism due to this fact, which is called the "demandingness objection" -- and it's exactly what it sounds like: a belief that utilitarianism is not feasible because it is too demanding as an ethical framework.
      Now, if he agrees with the demandingess objection because he thinks that there are genuinely superagatory actions that are good, but not necessary, that's fine. However, he should realize that this is a criticism of utiliarianism and, thus, is a reason to not be a utilitarian.
      So maybe Vaush really isn't a utilitarian after all.

      I think the way out for Vaush would just be to bite the bullet and say Hasan is obligated to do it. _But_ that we shouldn't be so harsh on him because that's just going to make him defensive. It seems like this is kinda what he wants to say anyway-- he spends a lot of time saying we should be more encouraging. I think he's just confused about what utilitarians think about obligations. tbh I don't think he's really thought it through

      by vaush's own logic "the only people criticizing socialists aren't socialists so why should we care?" then a conservative should never, ever under any circumstance consider a democrat, liberal or socialists criticisms? Through this worldview for Vaush to even get close to any change he wants to see he'd have to have full control over the government, and never cede ANY of that power because there is no room for compromise or criticism.

It was clear he was being blatantly dishonest and had adapted a "win at all costs" ethos. Earlier his positions were amendable, now he acts like the authoritative source for truth and knowledge. The debate where he claimed "there is no truth, truth is only power" just seemed like more proof that he stopped giving a shit about the substance of the things he says and is more concerned with how it's received.

Now it would be ideal if he got rid of his slaves but I want everybody to get rid of their slaves and I think it's a double standard to point out Hasan's position of owning slaves when you've got slave owners that exist that don't hold to the belief of freeing them. I don't see you getting angry when they're not consciously buying more slaves. We live in a current system where it is necessary to have slaves in order to survive and I would like to see the state address and change that. Why aren't you upset at those of us slave owners who advocate the change of the system but can't live in the necessary system without slaves? Are we hypocritical and deserving of condemnation? We could stand to let go of one or two of our slaves. If not, where is the arbitrary line where you can start to live those ideals. To be fair to Hasan, Georgia is a very slave demanding state to live in."

      For any vuash hasan Stan imbecile who reads this and thinks it's such a hyperbolic example. It is so as to prove a point. If you argue against a thing, and jeep doing said thing, but are called a moral hero only for preaching about said thing. Then everyone should just only preach, as in everyone, and as long as they just preach its all good.

      I feel like it's an apt comparison rather than outright hyperbolic as slavery is an economic system based off exploitation of a worker force. Vaush isn't understanding the concept of holding people to their different standards and feigns confusion as to why non-socialists would call out the actions of someone whose putting the message out there of socialist actions. He undermines Ahrelevant by claiming that neither of the two of them will have an impact on Hasan (disregard the net power and reach both do have as do larger figures speaking out against Hasan and potentially affecting his audience) and that if it does, his unchallenging of socialists living exploitative and luxurious lifestyles is what's going to be a more positive move for the left (in large part because he can't stand the notion of conceding any ground to the right).
      The frustration exists because Hasan postures on his beliefs and has the opportunity to enact the change he wants to see. And I want to see him make that positive change. Unlike Ahrelevant I don't think something like donating to a charity or fundraiser is enough. That's more of a collective action which while helpful, doesn't fall in line with socialist principles or change your living conditions radically.
      I want skin in the game. If our current capitalist system has uplifted your life so much, and you think you can do better, then put your money where your mouth is. Pay your editors, pay fans whose work you bought off of twitterbots stealing their art instead of "free exposure" and if you're too dumb to know how best to invest your money in the community around you, delegate to somebody who can make that socialist difference. Because if you're somebody in a position of luxury like that, and even you feel like you have no power to change the system or try to enact any level of real change, then why the hell should anybody listen to anything you have to say?
      Contrapoints had a pretty insightful take she said that the real clever thing about capitalism is it pacifies what would otherwise be it's most effective detractors.

He then gets so stuck in arguing for death = moral bad that he advocates for a black man submitting themselves to a racist mob rushing him because, "Better to submit to a mob and only maybe have 1 death than have to defend yourself resulting in multiple deaths for sure."

      Philosophy is interesting and fun when appropriate. Sean Carroll, for example, covers a lot of interesting philosophy on his podcast, especially when it comes to metaphysics and onthology. Just recently he had an interview with a neuroscientist who is also a philosopher who is trying to rigorously and accurately describe emergence of consciousness. That's interesting, precise and there is progress.
      There has also been an interview with a logician who mathematically rigorously explored moral universes and concludes that you can in fact treat moral systems just as rigorously as mathematical formal systems. Again, real progress here, where we are actually starting to *finally* get some rigour to morality.

      Not surprising at all - hypocrisy is the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform. Vaush is a moral nihilist, and moral standards are practically irrelevant to him, it's all about power to him - of course he doesn't care about hypocrisy. Vaush will defend Hasan from any moral criticism as long as he thinks Hasan is helping push people towards his idea of socialism. Whether Hasan actually knows or believes in socialism is totally irrelevant. I believe the technical term for people like Hasan in Vaush's world is "useful idiot".

    Wtf, did Vaush seriously try to claim that the "exploitation of labour" is a moral claim (at 2:43:20)? Reformed socialist here, but I'm pretty sure Marx's concept of the "exploitation of labour" was never a moral claim, it was simply an economic claim. I don't think Marx was worried about whether or not it was immoral, only that it was a thing that could be scientifically observed about the economy. This is one of the biggest misunderstandings of Marx that modern socialists have and it seems Vaush, for all his grandstanding about intellectual outpacing, has the same misunderstanding of the theory he espouses. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

      The status quo for humans has involved ritual sacrifice of children and the rounding up and extermination of millions of Jews. Appealing to the status quo is at best an appeal to ignorance, which does have some merit in absolving moral culpability.
      It's also important to take into account an individual's means or ability to deviate from the status quo if they believe it to be wrong. This is the argument that Destiny and many others make as a reason that someone like Hasan should have higher expectations placed on them considering their great means.
      Thr question isn't whether jihadist's have a genuine argument for moral apathy or even wrongdoing, which they probably do. It's whether or not that moral failing is worthy of indiscriminate acts of mass murder as a fair or productive punishment, which is pretty obviously no imo.
