Here's her 18 min video if you want to watch for yourself: FAR-LEFT PragerU? The Gravel Institute's Socialist Propaganda | Ep 235

Me:
The populations of Germany & Finland are very different than that of the US. Its wrong to attribute the social mobility of those countries solely to their big government.
You:
So what you're saying is Americans can't have healthcare because of brown people.
Very cool shoe
Also, I find the conflation of mass migration with "oh lol brown people" disgusting and a huge strawman, but to the point, immigration does affect the feasability and solvency of tax payer funded healthcare systems.

I never said any of this. The video is not about healthcare.
-
Americans have healthcare. If healthcare isn't state-funded, it doesn't count as healthcare now?
-
Canada's healthcare is strained to the point where my dad needed to go to the US for his cancer tests.
If you watch her talk with Karlyn Borysenko, you'll immediately see that she lives in a little leftist bubble. Intellectually, she's at the level of a child where she understands that there is "injustice" in the world, but doesn't understand why.
She still doesn't understand the concepts of scarcity and personal agency. To her, if someone is poor, sick, etc., that is because some evil was inflicted upon them by a malicious entity (racism, sexism, white supremacy, etc.), and that we have the unlimited resources to save these people, therefore we are killing them by not saving them.
When Karlyn says she turned away from the left and is voting for the right, Shoe accuses her of no longer caring about the poor and sick. The possibility that the right wants to solve the same issues, but through a different method does not exist in her mind. To her, if we do not agree with the leftist solution, we simply don't care about the issue at all. Karlyn attempts to engage her, but Shoe backs off, saying she doesn't want a "debate".

This is why violence is inevitable. The Left and Right no longer agree that each side is acting in good faith and working towards a common set of goals... and to some extent, they're correct.
Currently the "mainstream" political ideology is about making men equal.
The right wants to make men strong.
The left wants to make men weak.
That's the big difference.
Lowest common denominator versus highest common denominator.
Enough people on the Right thought they were to keep social cohesion intact.
The Hard Left was always irredeemable. The voters of the Left were not.
