I wanted to make the "quick what does Ja Rule think" joke, but then it ended up being a well thought out and articulated monologue.
"You didn't look for geniuses in Calcutta." Facts that no one wants to admit.
"Thinking of people as interchangeable units... strips their humanity... it's one of the first steps towards Marxism, to think of people only as labor." Also more facts.
"Competing with China is _what sense? In GDP?... And for what cost? If it makes the US look like Calcutta, then it's not worth it. ... Do we need to build giant cities that nobody lives in to compete? Do we need to turn our country into a police state nightmare to compete with China? ... Competing with China is competing with slave labor, and that's not worth competing with."
"Can't we just kick out their spies and tell them to fuck off"
“I have 300 thousand - 250 thou…. Atleast 200,000 subscribers, where is my Chinese spy to suck my dick? Aren’t I famous enough? Where’s my Ming Ling?”
He deserves a Suk Suk from Ching Chong Ling Long. He should be loved long time.
More than Eric Swallowswell that’s for sure
Why are you stanning for this video? It’s a direct attack on your retarded worldview.
This video is almost entirely my world view. You genuinely don't know anything about me.
I thought his comment on cathedrals was rather poignant.
They aren't so much buildings, but many lifetimes of work.
And now they are being handed to the Muslims on a silver platter.
It's as if Catholics should forcibly remove Communists from the papacy.
99% of the cathedrals in Europe are owned by liberal governments that have split from the church. All of the UK, all of France, all of Germany... etc.
Finally, some common ground.
More common than you realize.
In any case, Liberation Theology must be fully expunged as an attack on God.
The most eloquent and well reasoned analyses are coming from the strangest of places lately.
I didn't expect the most in-depth and on point analysis of this topic from @wigger but here we are.
5 minutes in, I was shocked to realize he had 40 more minutes of things to say. He did not disappoint.
I really dislike it when people include gross bodily functions in their videos. I do not want to see anyone spit phlegm, belch, fart, piss and shit themselves or even eat.
This is a correct opinion. I still laugh when Sam burps though because somehow he knows when they'll be funny.
Your tolerance for gross things is directly related to your overall health. I'm afraid I have some bad news. It's Super Cancer. You have I don't know, 2 minutes to live? 50 years? It's somewhere in there. Just don't die and everything will be fine. Unless it's not. R.I.P.
This is one reason I couldn't watch Rick and Morty, even before getting to the Reddit atheism "I am so smart" stuff I could not handle listening to so many disgusting noises.
"The Ghost of Kyiv gives a dire warning to Elon Musk"
Elon can't keep getting away with it.
He's been on a roll lately. Can he keep getting away with it?
Me: "I should post this at c/KotakuInAction2. Wait where did I originally find this?"
"Where do you think we are?"

I hate living in a multiracial shitopia
Did he associate with Asmongold just to cause Asmon problems?
I think he was poking fun at the goyslop and man-child way of demoralized "life" many of us have been conned into.
I just took it as a "Subscribe to PewDiePie" statement.
The asmongold reaction vid will get far more views than the original, it's a 200 IQ move to get more exposure.
So basically what I said but also self promotion. IMO
I honestly think tech companies would just come up with a tech solution to hire Americans, if that was their only option. H1-B is the path of least resistance today.
They would make actually good trustworthy online courses where you could track people's progress and education.
The basics of programming are not that much. There is definitely some useful info in advanced CS courses as well, but it doesn't come up that often and you can honestly Google a lot of it on the job. Especially now with AI chat tools.
But you would be surprised how many people fail coding interviews which are seemingly simple. Even people with degrees, which makes me doubt either their resumes or the quality of a lot of these degrees. Hiring outside the US does seem to help fill positions quickly.
Though, perhaps it does affect pay as well, at least for average companies. But, I doubt it for the really good companies, which have some of the best pay in USA for any job, and that's not exaggerating
Indians have made a national business out of rote-memorizing all possible code test questions and answers. When I last changed jobs and looked up some interview tips to refresh my memory, every single website I found was by Indians for Indians giving away coding interview questions. Actually it can be a pretty good way of testing yourself on specific languages, but for people hiring I guess the question is do they want someone who can fake it in the interview and then has to google everything, or someone bright enough to solve complex problems on his own and pick up new tools and languages as the job requires. A lot of the time it seems like they're fine with the former or at least don't want to pay US wages for the latter.
Interesting, we were allowed to come up with our own coding problems.
But honestly, there are only a few dozen types of questions that even work well in an interview. But you can make endless variants of them. Though, it is a challenge to sometimes realize how to map the variants of problems to a common solution.
I actually didn't encounter all that many Indian people specifically. But definitely people from all over the world. A lot from the US too
If you're hiring anything above entry level, it's better to have someone explain the hows and whys. A pajeet can memorize parlor tricks, but get him to explain how async/await works and why you'd use it over alternatives and he'll choke.
I'm glad Sam, moist critical and asmondgold rekindled their friendship
"Infamous terrorist Samu Hydabara supports the white supremacist woke right in horrific xenophobic rant, lgbtqwopbbq most affected."
pls hire me WaPo i need gibs
the troll who does anything and everything for attention, the guy whose claim to fame is being blamed for every mass shooting of the last ten, fifteen years, has one of the most well-thought takes on the issue I've heard so far.
Sam Hyde has actually been extremely succinct in his analysis. He's the person who came up with "They want you broke, homeless, your wife dead, your children raped, and they think it's funny."
fair enough. I don't really follow the guy.
I still think he makes the classic left-right mistake of saying it's a dichotomy of people or ideas (it's both), but he hit the nail on the head otherwise.
He's actually hitting something much deeper, that's a discussion on the dissident right already. Ideology, particularly any ideology descended from and including liberalism, is fundamentally anti-human. He's making a mockery of first-principles argumentation from political rationalism, because humans aren't rational creatures, and politics can't be decided rationally. Thus, when trying to argue from first principles from any liberal mindset, you mistake the concept that people can be commodified into the ideology because you're in service to the liberal ideology and not the people themselves. Serving people's interests is an inherently inconsistent, subjective, and irrational way of dealing with the world, but ends up being the correct way if you want to actually help people.
Either ideology has to be sacrificed for people, or people have to be sacrificed for ideology. You can't actually have both.
I was more looking at it that ideology is molded by people and people are molded by ideology. symbiosis is probably the wrong word, but it's the best word I can think of (synergy maybe? no, that sounds worse...)
The analogy that's been running through my head is tea and coffee. In both cases, you steep water (the people) with ground plant material (ideology, values, culture, what have you). They're made the same way, but if you can't tell the difference, I'm not coming over to your house for dinner, lmao.
if you mix a small amount of one into the other, the whole isn't drastically changed, though there may be a subtle difference in flavor, color, aroma, etc, but the fundamental whole is maintained.
the more you add of one to the other, though, the more drastic the change becomes, until you're left with something unrecognizable as what you started with. if you continue pouring long enough, the original drink becomes unrecognizable to what it once was, diluted in what was added to it.
I should have added tea leaves are not tea, coffee beans are not coffee, and water is neither.
I stopped watching at 15 sec. If Elon Musk is here, do you mind posting a summary so that I don't invalidate the Mr. Hyde's trust in me?
If you're an American (or one of a few non-Americans here helping us) then you're good and we should live well together. If you're anyone else, want to take advantage of us, or want to take away things from us or our children then get the fuck out.
I vaguely know of Asmongold but have no idea who MoistCritikal is.
Think long haired Tim Pool but in video game flavour as opposed to pure politics.
On a fundamental level the question of how do we beat China is one of the most important of our age.
I think the answer lies in creating a free society, with no mass surveillance state or authoritarian government. Where energy is cheap and plentiful. Where food is clean, safe and affordable. Where the people own their home. Where a family can live on one salary and have 2 or more children. One where the employee is not a captive at work for 16 hours a day, just to avoid being replaced by Indians.
That's how you beat China. Not just in the US but in Europe as well.
This is incorrect. The most fundamental question is "What does it mean to win?" If winning is making GDP go up then, as Sam Hyde said, that's retarded. You need to define victory before you can even contemplate beating anyone.
Correct, I worded myself poorly.
He makes some good points based on the timestamp descriptions, but it don't know how anyone can stand listening to the entire thing. Maybe it says more about me than anything else, but I got one minute in and I'm screaming get to the fucking point already.
You just might not enjot listening to other men talk, which is fine and probably means you're more independent. Keep reading!
Listen at 2x while doing something else.
Yeah that's what I usually do and this type of vid could be good while driving but his cliff notes were good enough in this case.
Why have you been hiding this man behind all the mass shooter and terrorist memes, I thought he was a literal retard.
