You’re framing of that video is complete rubbish. The hosts repeatedly state that they agree there are problems with economic equality, and accurately describe the problem at every point. Their point isn’t about the stats, it’s about how Gary is a grifter that tailors his message to attract simpletons who like shiney words and empty rhetoric. That he can’t even engage with a chart that might support his message because actual data isn’t a part of the equation for him, only rhetoric and whatever cherry picked headlines he can find to support it.
You’re also just framing this as a gotcha for the same reasons, that Gary is constantly playing victim, so his fans carry that message as well. He wasn’t a victim, he’s a grown ass man that can’t handle any push back without crying like a little bitch.
You complain about a graph not being enough to draw a conclusion then point to an even worse data point that completely misses 49.999% of the population in its analysis. That’s some turbo charged populist brainrot, and Gary will definitely add it to his grab bag of factoids to dazzle his audience for year to come, like jingling keys in front of babies.

Yea, because you spread tageted misinformation and both-sides lies that causes democrat voter apathy. You’re a cancer on left wing politics that has only helped get Trump into office.
- Comment on Gary Stevenson: 'Tax wealth or we'll return to the feudal age' 1 day ago:
The way Gary does it it’s almost identical. Preying on people who are susceptible to populist messaging, you know, the the dumb ones. I’d say he’s more like Donald Trump tbh.
- Comment on Gary Stevenson: 'Tax wealth or we'll return to the feudal age' 2 days ago:
Yea I heard the same arguments from people defending Andrew Tate; “he’s got a good message about putting in the work to better yourself”. My response was always that this is basic life stuff you can get from a thousand other people who aren’t sex traffickers. Likewise Gary isn’t the first person to talk about these issues, he isn’t even the thousandth, he’s just the guy who dressed it up with populist messaging and a victim narrative that the elites are trying to silence him.
He has all the hallmarks of being a grifter like the Weinstein brothers, Jordan Peterson, or Tate. Decoding the Gurus have done a few episodes on him being a weirdo that are fun and informative youtu.be/Ttrab7AMn-M

Yea that didn’t happen, and the trust of whatever fringe minority of insane people who believe that it did isn’t wanted or valuable. The only thing moderates want is to flip purple seats, which none of the leftists are able to do because they are too busy laarping in blue districts, like the pathetic little backstabbing worms that they are.
- Comment on Gary Stevenson: 'Tax wealth or we'll return to the feudal age' 2 days ago:
Look I’m not married to this argument about fleeing capital, I don’t think it’s convincing that everyone will run off to Sweden or whatever. I just think that whatever the solution is will not be the most obvious one that can fit on a t-shirt sold on Gary’s merch page. Imo Gary is a grifter and I don’t appreciate how he denounces the “academics in their ivory tower” while saying he’s got all the answers and it’s so important that the prime minister calls him for help.
- Comment on Context is for people that read US news 2 days ago:
Ohhh I forgot, leftists are babies without any agency, they are just reactive to the moderates, and moderates should know better and act like the grown ups in the room so the babies don’t do anything stupid. My bad!
- Comment on Context is for people that read US news 2 days ago:
Moderates weren’t happy as soon as his first scandals came out, but the left cried foul at any criticism. The only reason they are happy now is because all of you with your lame ass critical support of him has been exposed and you’re running like rats from the sinking ship. They are NOT happy about the election itself, which the leftists darling candidate has completely fucked up. If you want representation then find someone viable to represent you, balls in your court, next time maybe you can find someone that isn’t a an obvious trainwreck of a human being, but that seems to come with the territory.

This man is a clown and can safely be ignored without negatively affecting any part of your life.
It’s a parody that this charlatan is making bank shilling populism to a magazine that is sold on the street by the homeless.
Listen to this self-aggrandising spiv winge about the “academics in their ivory tower” and how he’s so smart that none of them take him seriously, while making a career out of surface level platitudes like the title. It’s wild that anyone can listen to him without cringing out of their skull.

How is it not surprising when it contradicts your argument?

My landlord recently told me how much they think the place I’m renting would sell for, and now idk why the owners even bother renting to me because the price is like 50 years worth of my rent.

The only people here enjoying Palestinian death are the lefty freaks who use it to deflect all criticism.

How about your pathetic lies about me? Apparently AIPAC is the only thing I like. Imagine being so fucked in the head that you are capable of writing that lmao. But that’s all slopulists are capable of, their entire worldview is shit so they cling to fallacy to self sooth whenever they’re confronted.

Pile the dead Palestinian bodies higher king, you’re looking a little exposed.

No, I just don’t like slopulists who cowar behind dead Palestinians so they don’t have to answer for anything.

That might be true, but any good meme post on .ml will be posted everywhere else, and the trash memes from .ml will stay quarantined, it’s like a free market economy of memes. Also memes aren’t in short supply, idc if some raging tankie is the funniest guy imaginable, I’ll have 70 trillion memes to scroll with or without them, so purging them from polite society has zero downsides.

Please show me where I’ve stated I like AIPAC. I’d hate to think you were just lying about me like some kind of scum slurping halfwit.

Hard disagree, all their memes are:
- Ragebait,
- Appeal to common sense,
- Laugh at outgroup
They’re humor is identical to right wingers.

Just like how you screaming “AIPAC” as a reason for everything you don’t like aligns you with those same fascists.

What is this self soothing behaviour? Just admit your points are irrelevant, and you’ve contributed nothing to this. Then you can go back to mommy for some head pats, sound good champ?
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
I’ll have you know dog walker is a highly respected profession, and an even more respected activity in moments such as these.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
Lol. So your substantive claim is irrelevant to the topic, which was whether voting for Democrats is worth it. You’re trying to pivot to criticizing their electoral strategy because you’re terrified to admit that Democrats are far superior to Republicans in incredibly meaningful ways for people all over the world.
The only people making a fuss about electoral strategy are dumbasses who can’t understand or care about actual policy, they are only concerned with what shows up on their feed and the vibes they get. Brainrotted consumers at the end of a pipeline who advocate for nothing because their vapid world-view precludes any real understanding.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
Bro, that’s all you’ve been doing this entire time, that’s why I said you’re projecting, it’s so blatant. Every time you bring up anything close to a substantive claim it’s weak af and easily dismissed. You have nothing.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
Insane projections from the peanut gallery
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 2 months ago:
You’re grasping at straws and pointing to nothing specific. What is your problem with the PRO act and how does it warrant this rediculous both sides attitude?
I’ve listed Biden’s many achievements several times in this thread and none of the slopulists have been able to dispute them.
Thinking a party majority is the end of the story is the most terminally online take ever. That’s not how representative democracy works.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 2 months ago:
So are you a dog walker professionally or is this just a hobby?
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 2 months ago:
Nice cherry pick, followed by bullshit. Also are you trying to say “tongue”, but in an English as a second language kind of way? Kinda sus.
Now, you say “killed”, but that’s not true because it still exists at its previous level. Biden just boosted it during covid, plus democrats tried to continue it but were a single vote short. Just another example of Dems trying, and Republicans wasting oxygen.
Either way the point still stands, Biden was the most pro-worker president I’ve ever seen, and the piss babies that disagree are just mad because they don’t know shit about politics, or democracy, or anything really.
