💰 GrifterDevon Del Vecchio / "Dev" / ShortFatOtaku / @sleepy_devo - Degenerate loser, honorary whiteknight for Lilith Lovett, constantly at odds with his own viewers for being a centrist
I'm not liking this whole "Anita Sarkeesian was right" arc he's going on. First he deleted most of his GamerGate videos, and now this. Especially since he refuses to admit he's wrong about other topics, seeing this sudden reversal makes no sense.
I hate using the term bad faith, but c'mon Dev. This is the oldest trick in the book. "I reframed what you said in the worst way possible, don't you feel stupid now?" No, that's not what he said. He said that there is a building pressure, and if one side is exclusively poking and prodding the other, eventually the one being prodded with retaliate, and cause a bigger fight. If we watch a bull get fucked with over and over and it eventually gores the guy messing with it, do we not feel somewhat justified that the bull fucked up the guy fucking with it? Whether or not that bull is "mOrALly JuST" or not?
Is pointing out the reality of the situation, and not explicitly saying I am on some side who will retaliate, mean that I am now suddenly saying I want this eventual fight to happen? This shit is why people have a hard time seeing Dev as truly centrist these days, because the obvious middleground position is to just point something out as an observer with no real side to your name. But no, Dev has to not only point out sides, but actively divest himself from one of them.
I like how Null describes the kind of centrist Destiny is, it applies to Dev perfectly. Right now is the only time in history that a fat, talentless gooner like Dev could strive.
People have long stopped looked at democracy as a means to an end (stable life and government) but as an end in itself.
If there were better alternatives, why are you not allowed to bring them up? What about democracy is so fucking special you can be jailed for questioning it in some places?
Every system needs certain cornerstones of that system to be held as "sacred" in a way. It's the reason why democracy fell to Fascism/Nazism in Italy, Austria & Germany but every where else that had those same movements stayed democratic (excluding puppet states). The elites & a large chunk of the population in Italy, Austria & Germany hated democracy.
As for better alternatives, I think enlightened dictatorship is pretty goated. Look up Lee Kuan Yew, Thomas Sankara, Huey Long, Qaboos bin Said, & France-Albert Rene. It can work.
The pajeets have arrived a few years ago, lol. I live like 2 hours drive from him. He lives in Sudbury, Ontario, which has always been a violent shithole.
Comment Examples from the ACE video.
I am not showing the full arguments as it gets repetitive very quickly.
Even from a glance it is easy to understand that there are two rigid views that cannot be reconciled. The people who do believe everything is political and use the same rationalization coming to that belief to justify said belief, and the other people who see this perspective as a prescription made by people who are "politics"-brained.
The major problem is that the people who believe everything is political is unlikely to shake this view because they have been molded by their own delusion. Left wing or right wing or fried chicken wing, they all have the same problem.

Here is Null's take. I think he goes more in depth on the MATI stream going over Destiny's unhinged reaction over the Trump assassination attempt, but unfortunately Youtube seems to have taken that archive down.
Basically he defends the status quo at all costs because he gets to be a deadbeat streamer cuck. Destiny and Dev would be the first to go if nazis or tankies took over.

You're missing the point. If America suddenly became China tomorrow, Dev would be living on the street. He wouldn't defend the new status quo out of some principled admiration for status quos, that kind of substantial change would immediately disincentivise his preferred lifestyle.
Does he genuinely think everyone else has no nuanced takes? Or that he wasn't blaming Trump for getting shot when he said he crated the climate that led to it?
