Come on. I like Chapo for the most part but realize they have a limited audience and a set ceiling for how many people can be won over to their Twitter-irony poisoned side. Like 95% of the people who vote in primaries are over 30.

If you want to gauge the popularity of the dirtbag left, you might say the rise of membership in the DSA since 2016 points to its growing popularity. But, their influence on the Democratic party is obviously next to zero and they'd admit before anyone.

You are dumb as fuck, my man. If you do not see that ideologies which are considered far left are treated much more lightly than ones which are considered far right, you are dumb as fuck. As an aside I would say that this indicates that far right ideologies present much more of an existential threat to liberalism than those of the left these days. On, say, NPR far lefties when they are spoken of get treated as naive idealists at worst. Nevermind the fact that anarchism and communism could very well spell the extermination of large groups of people if implemented. The farms and factories won't collectivize themselves, after all.

What the Nazis and Soviets has in common was an millenarian impulse: that a time was coming where man would be reborn, and everything would be different.
Bound up in the rhetoric of progress, both movements sought a man-made millennium: be it by ushering in the 1000 year Reich and using the power of science to create the perfect race, or the violent revolution leading to a classless society, a new eden, both unwittingly pilfered concepts from the early, radical reformation. Liberalism shares astonishing similarities.

Going to respond to both of you. I think it’s because leftists see certain beliefs as unquestionable - for example, universal human rights - which fascists often see as up for debate. Leftists don’t like arguing with fascists because they refuse to use the same first principles. Imagine having an argument with someone about how best to (I don’t fucking know) roof a house or whatever, but then the other guy says that triangles have four sides.

Nazi's were either culling parts of the population in cold blood out of a nihilist need to gain or hang onto power, or they really did do it out of a belief that doing that was right. The deaths in the Soviet Union were a mix of bad luck with droughts, and a crazy leader fighting elements within his country that threatened his power. Note that the Soviet causes of civilian deaths were not a required ideological requirement of Marxism in any of its writings, where the Nazis were doing these things in a time and place where they could afford not to but decided to proceed anyway, it wasn't Hitler having a breakdown from day 1 but by design. If you claim that you aren't arguing in bad faith, I find that hard to believe because it just shows you blindly pointing out these things that happened like they are arguments, but somehow you are too dumb to consider WHY they happened and why they may not be equivalent.

That sttill does not equate to choosing to kill as the nazi's did, when they basically never had to. The droughts would have killed people whether the czars were still in power or not at that time, but the nazi's deaths didn't happen IN SPITE of fascism, they happened BECAUSE of fascism, and that is the difference.

Did the Russian Revolution kill millions? Absolutely. That’s just objective fact. Did they do it to exterminate the gay black Jews to rid themselves of faggot degeneracy? No. Pretending like ML and fascism are morally indistinguishable is pure folly.

It hinges on the extermination of the upper classes. As far as I know, fascism per se doesn't necessarily have to do with ethnicity, and national socialism itself doesn't necessitate the extermination of the Jews, only their expulsion, for example Hitler asking the allied nations to take Jews and nobody taking them in, or the Haavara agreement.
What's inherently wrong about moral, sexual and racial purity in your view? This in itself doesn't require the extermination of anyone who doesn't adhere to it.

Good question. We’re starting to get into what constitutes a right, which is really hard to define.

It most certainly does. Some rights come into conflict with others, and I'm certain that any "right" I can come up with will be slapped down for not being legitimate.

I say this because I do not think you have any list, nor could you write one because you're afraid of exposing yourself to attack at the most fundamental level of your beliefs.

It's a very short article, it won't lose you much time. You're doing a disservice to yourself by being so dogmatic with knowledge. Scientists (or academics in general), especially with social matters, have their own interests to protect too, so it's worth reading various viewpoints.
>If I had to choose my brother or a stranger to save from a fire I’d pick my brother
So you understand what I'm saying here. I'm not sure how universal rights factors into this, except only as directly detrimental to your own (you and your people's) survival.
>Countries are lines drawn on paper
Yes and no, the composition of a country's population isn't arbitrary, there is a certain history, values, etc. uniting them, and the less this is true the more strain there is. Just look at ex-colonies where the imperial country left and drew arbitrary lines, creating at least decades of conflict from that. Or examples like India.
>isn’t the modern state of America illegitimate by your own definition?
This is a good question and something that I'd like to debate more. Certainly, a Europe for whites is undeniably legitimate to me, while America is a bit more muddy. What I can say is that, in those times, right of conquest was the rule of law, and it's happened in such a way that Indians are now a minority and whites essentially forged the modern states.
I do not agree that such conquests would be legitimate today.

Yes, you’re right. And we’d probably disagree on what constitutes a human right. But that’s not what we were arguing about. We were debating the idea of rights themselves. To argue about specifics we have to establish whether “human rights” exist. It sounds like you’re trying to shift the argument because you can’t answer my question about infant rights. I’m saying that human babies have rights. For this to be wrong, either babies aren’t human, or people don’t have rights. I’ve heard excellent arguments for both positions.

India isn’t a great example. It’s far closer to the European Union than somewhere like France. They all speak the same language and have the same religion, but each “state” has its own language, customs, music, etc. Many times a country’s population is somewhat arbitrary. Japan doesn’t speak Korean because a freak typhoon destroyed the invading Korean fleet, for example. Russia wasn’t thought of as part of Europe until the 19th century.

The fact of rights themselves comes before delineating those rights. This is as obvious as saying that you must agree triangles exist before you can bicker over the best way to find their area.

The left-liberal conception of human rights is rooted in the anthropology of homo economicus. The purpose of all Enlightenment projects, be they classically liberal, progressive, or socialist, has been maximizing the capacity for actualization of the rational, self-choosing self. The problems are manifold. First, that this is not who man actually is, and second, that those who are inconvenient to this maximization, under whatever scheme, are gradually determined to not really be human, and not deserving of rights. Third, the rise of homo economicus has ironically led to a world where everywhere, man’s options seem to be shrinking before him.
None of this is to defend some of the more barbaric opponents of these projects, but we are at a point where we must reject this false anthropology, and try to see the truth.

>India isn’t a great example
Exactly, I used it as an example of what a country shouldn't be, because a colonial power left off and drew lines arbitrarily, to illustrate your point that "all borders are arbitrary", when a properly forged country, let's say, won't have such problems if it's a proper nation state (one country for one people).

To an extent. There’s vicious inter-left debate inside most American universities among faculty. The ones who hold power (donors, administrators, presidents, boards) are largely right wing.

He might be right. It’s far more likely he’s wrong.
>perfect world
I might’ve not been clear. I believe everyone has rights, no matter who they are. In the fire example this means that both my brother and the stranger have an equal right to life. The decision should be utterly impossible, and I should have to flip a coin. Universal rights don’t depend on who gives me the warm fuzzies. But I love my brother so I’d choose him without thinking and I acknowledge that this violates universal rights. At the base: me loving someone doesn’t magically give them more rights.
>India
Interesting. I would argue that the idea of a “properly forged state” is impossible in and of itself. I don’t want to get bogged down in swapping specifics - I’m guessing neither do you - but take Northern Ireland and Ireland, for example. Should NI remain part of the UK or reunify with Ireland? If it’s the second, that calls into question the entire UK. If it’s the first, it appears to imply that countries aren’t quite as simple as one land for one people. My Korea example was to illustrate that a country’s given cultural mileau is often accidental. If Korea’s invasion would have been successful, Japan’s current culture would’ve been drastically different.

This is a good question. I’ve said a few times elsewhere that I’m not sure where you would draw the line. We can debate this if you’d like. It appears, at least to me, that the right to life is a good place to start. I think we’d both agree that life is a human right. (I hope we both agree.) In this scenario you’d be allowed to defend your community and interests as long as it doesn’t threaten anyone else’s life, because that’s a rights violation. I’m open to debate on the specifics of rights. Could be wrong here. But something tells me that right to life is pretty fundamental.

This is not about that. This is about a whole neoliberal progressive worldview being essentially the prevailing ideology of the whole system and so being espoused by virtually every institution, academia being only one.

>both my brother and the stranger have an equal right to life.
Yes (debatable, but I don't want to get into how we could value people, that's a whole other can of worms and I'm very unsure about that).
>The decision should be utterly impossible, and I should have to flip a coin
No, man, what? You're not a machine, you're a human being. You don't operate on blind logic nor should you want to. You're gonna choose your brother every time, and that stranger's friend will choose him every time, and that's perfectly fine. And we're evidently operating on a different conception of rights because I still don't see how you violate that guy's rights because you choose your brother over him in the fire.

Yeah, so? It would be a different culture, maybe it would be part of Korea and the peoples would be the same (doubtful due to that same geographical distance), I fail to see how this is relevant to the discussion.

Tricky, tricky. Really good questions. I’m not sure. If human rights are inviolable, and life is the most basic right, and self-defense necessitates killing in this scenario, then you’re not allowed to kill. This is uncomfortable. I’m not sure I believe it. On the other hand, I’m not sure how we define threat, or self-defense, or or or, which seems pretty crucial to what we’re discussing, and I think we’ll define these rights based mostly from our political beliefs. I’m not sure we can approach anything objective from this point unless you can see a way forward.

But you're not the arbiter of rights here. You're not a judge presiding over a case and being neutral to it. Again, such a view seems to me that can only derive in a scenario where people are like machines without affection. How would it not?
I won't say it's not an interesting and original (at least to me) viewpoint... just more dystopic than pretty much anything I've encountered, save being in favor of relinquishing our humanity to AIs.
>Scotland shouldn’t exist either
Aren't Scots in general much more alike each other, and therefore definiable as a group, than Scots and Brits or Scots and Indians?
>then the entire idea of one land one people would be called into question
Not really, in that case Japan would have adopted Korean culture over time, either resulting in Oriental Korea or in a Japan alternative to what we have today. Same with the Rome example. In any case I already said I don't think conquest is legitimate today, but the past is unchangeable.

So would you only be allowed to kill only once the other guy tries to kill you but fails (otherwise ur ded)? At the very least you say you don't believe this with certainty, and I'm sure you would agree that any group with this mindset will not prevail enough to propagate said mindset.
>I’m not sure how we define threat
Well, naturally this will be muddy, a guy throwing a punch is not the same as a guy stabbing you with a knife, but what about in between? And what if you kill him in battle because you give him a good punch? Better not to punch and to receive the aggression?

Because it’s obvious that you think leftists run academia, and in my experience I think they run the classroom but not the board of directors, and the board of directors holds all the real power.
>right to life
I believe that moral rights are like the laws of mathematics. They exist independent of us and operate without regard for situation or emotion. Two and two don’t make five, no matter how much a child wants them to. I’m not the arbiter of rights, yes. That’s exactly my point — we must honor human rights, even when doing so would cause great harm or personal pain — in the same way that two and two must always make four, even when making five would bring about a better scenario. If I flipped a coin and saved a stranger I would grieve. My emotions don’t mean my brother has more of a right to life than the stranger. This view leads to some pretty counterintuitive and uncomfortable conclusions. It’s alright if this doesn’t sit well with you. It’s pretty hard for me to grapple with.
>scots
Maybe, maybe not. I’m sure I could rustle up a dozen scots who feel strongly patriotic. I’m sure I could rustle up a dozen who feel no affinity towards their countrymen or their country. This connects with the Korea point. I was trying to establish that “cultural affinity” is, in my view, largely a matter of circumstance and accident. If that view holds, there’s no particular reason why we must honor our countrymen or country above others.
>self-defense
You’re right. A group with an absolute mindset on right to life would be wiped out. That’s an uncomfortable conclusion. You might find it ridiculous - and that’s okay - but you’ll have to explain why, sometimes, people don’t have a right to life, or why that right can be violated.

I don't know about the details of this, but if leftists have no power in academia how do you explain the very obvious ideological leaning and the ideas they push into society at large?
Maybe it is much more obvious to me than to an Anglo, because on one side I can see it developing and normalizing on the internet (feminism, intersectionality, tranny shit) and then I see the exact same pathway being laid in my third world country, which runs a few years behind (with leftists in universities saying the exact same shit, with a few variations based on the local differences).
>we must honor human rights, even when doing so would cause great harm or personal pain
To a point, fine, in the same manner that we shouldn't kill off everyone who is powerless to stop it because it would benefit us. But you can see how, in the other extreme, this is not tenable at all, right?
Again, maybe if you're a holy man that would not kill even to defend his family (though even here I doubt it, there was this story about a Buddhist master who travelled by ship, and there was a man who wanted to sink the ship to steal the valuables left behind. The master killed this guy, justified because he avoided a greater evil than the killing itself, and even saved him from commiting bad karma)
>My emotions don’t mean my brother has more of a right to life than the stranger
Another point with this is that it simply isn't in concordance with human nature. We are tribal animals. You have to take both things into account to have a balanced view, because extreme 1 is being a caveman who kills Grug because he's from the cave across the pond, and extreme 2 is your scenario.
>scots who feel strongly patriotic
I'm not talking about patriotism, just people who share a culture and values in general, whether they own it or no.
>largely a matter of circumstance and accident
Sure, and? It also has a biological component, of course.
>there’s no particular reason why we must honor our countrymen or country above others
I don't see how that follows.
>people don’t have a right to life, or why that right can be violated
For starters, the guy who tries to kill me is denying me that right, so I must retaliate, and I'm not a lvl 100 monk that can defeat him without killing him with my gun.

>human nature, right to life, etc
I’ll address this first. Yes, my moral framework runs counter to our (supposed) natural inclination, but my moral framework (I claim) is inviolable. What I want doesn’t matter. What I feel inclined towards doesn’t matter. What matters is the moral code, which cannot be violated. There’s also no particular reason why we should respect “human nature.” “It feels right” isn’t really an argument for many reasons, and I put “human nature” in quotes because that idea itself is highly debatable. I’m not sure there’s a set way that all people feel inclined to act all the time, everywhere, throughout history. But that might be another debate.
>intellectuals push lefty shit
Sometimes, yes. They appear to be gaining ground on social issues. I would argue that these social advances are largely nominal or (no pun intended) skin deep. I’m an American, and I may see more transgender people on television, but the fact of their representation (and increasing acceptance) doesn’t mean that everyone’s totally alright with them, and it doesn’t mean they’re treated equally, and it doesn’t mean they’re not legally discriminated against. Many American intellectuals fancy themselves right wing or centrist and spend a good deal of time at corporate think tanks, right wing research hubs, etc. tl;dr transgender people might gain ground in your country but this doesn’t seriously threaten your country’s organization any more than Caitlyn Jenner destabilized America’s government
>country formation as circumstance
I wasn’t very clear here. If a country’s formation and culture is largely accidental, there’s no clear reason why it must be honored and defended, no? For example say china conquered the US. (We both agree this is bad. Just say it happened.) Five hundred years down the line, my descendants may speak Chinese, consider themselves Chinese, study the Chinese classics, and play Chinese instruments. Must their culture be honored and defended if it was illegitimately seized from America? If not, then it appears that ideas of “countrymen” and “culture” are mostly circumstantial. If so, same thing.
>biological component
What biological component? We return to the Roman invasion of Britain. Did the Roman invasion “pollute” Britain in some way, or pollute modern day France? Keep in mind that at the time, Anglo-Saxons, Gauls, and Romans all considered themselves separate races.
