This, right here, is a good video essay. How again do you not have more subscribers?

10/10 video, subbed, will cite in any discussion about leftist infighting lol

Holy cow, hats off to you! The amount of detail is ridiculous, this is a well-earnt sub!

This video is so well phrased, I genuinely had never realized why appeals to care failed so hard in discussion. I'd love to see more of these kinds of breakdowns on news and events!

As a current leftist (or a "libertarian socialist" some might say), you make kickass content. You got a discord to talk in? Cause I fell in love with your channel.

Oh no, I'm not brave enough for politics

Hey man this is such a great video. I really do appreciate that you were unbiased and didn't put any bias for either side. I always brought down this issue to being that leftists have a purity meter that they need to keep up with it and with that purity meter getting bigger and bigger each passing year some of them don't want to keep moving so they end up fighting the other people for not moving for that. It also could be because of the whole thing with leftists having an mindset of including everyone. But the problem with that is not everyone will agree and be united since they all belif different things. You can't have democrats and socialists go together, You can't have Islam and feminism go together. Or LGBT and Islam. You also see TERFs fight with LGBT aswell. This is Because the left is very diverse in there beliefs compared to the right which has fewer subfactions that are in the minority you often see leftists infight because they all have different goals because of the inclusion mindset and therefore they can't agree on alot of things. Anyways great video man!

this is a great video, it helped me with understanding and naming my stance on the in fighting and canceling and stuff. i'm glad it exists, it explains some very important things i wasn't getting before. i will be sharing it with my friends and followers. also i won't be able to look at a chicken for a good while, im just gonna pretend the question was never asked

This video is criminally underrated.

The idea that conservatives care evenly about the various moral tastes while liberals tend to be specifically focused on care and fairness is incredibly intriguing. It explains a lot about why I personally perceive so much more hypocrisy in the left than the right. It's not that they're legitimate hypocrites, it's that their values are highly specialized so the less emphasized values tend to go by the wayside. Very eye opening.

still incredibly relevant and eye opening for myself. i wonder how the argument holds when looking at politicianns themselves and the sense of moral loyalty they feel towards their voting base. the harm was reduced by getting an authoritarian out of office but feel less of a sense of obligatioon on following through with campaign promises. i will certainly have to read this book now!

Great vid! I came across your channel while researching for a similar video I'm going to do soon.. I may or may not borrow a line or two ;)

It’s funny how the republicans say exactly the same thing about the left🤣

Absolutely based video! This is some high quality stuff right here

This should be seen more.

Love the vid. Never could understand people who had large reactions to moral hypotheticals. This helps. Also, it respect to the two questions: 1) It is not morally wrong to fuck the chicken. For the reasons outlined. 2) Same goes for Jack and Jill. As long as it is consentual, and no unequal power dynamics are involved, i don't see any harm.

(laughs in rightist unity)

it's wrong because it's a chicken, humans and poultry aren't supposed to fornicate

joe biden is not a leftist.

i feel like the fact that he willingly fucked the chicken means that he has some tendency towards beastiality, and unless its only in combination with necrophilia, i cant imagine him not wanting to do so to a living animal. id say that's messed up. but let's say that his only "taboo" attraction is a combination of necrophilia and beastiality. if so, we should ask the question, does this chicken belong to someone? i live in a state with a lot of farms, so that possibility isnt too far-fetched to me. if it does, then id consider that disrespectful. the owner's probably freaking out wondering where their chicken went, and you just fucked their chicken that they spent all that time nurturing. i cant really excuse that, even if the owner doesn't know about what you did. you could've returned the chicken to them so that they at least get some closure. the question doesnt specify what the guy did with the chicken after he banged it, so that stays open-ended. but what if the chicken belonged to nature and was not tamed? well, chickens do contribute quite a bit to nature. soil that's nurtured by chickens helps reduce runoff and supports healthy water systems. that soil helps replace unhealthy pesticides, which then allows for more presence of bees, birds, and bats. so chickens in turn help increase biodiversity. in addition, letting any mammal's corpse decompose into the soil is nourishing to said soil. so the chicken is useful even in death. this man looked at that, said "nah", and fucked that chicken. that just feels uncomfortable to me. now, that brings up the argument that hunting and eating chicken causes the same issue. difference there is that you need food to survive, and chicken meat is one of the healthier meats for humans. that's contributing to the food chain, which is an important part of nature. no matter how much some nations have ignored it in favor of industrialization, we still contribute to the ecological balance, partly by eating other mammals. now, in this situation, i dont recall there ever being a sex chain. fornicating with the chicken doesn't allow for sexual reproduction, so there's no ecological benefit. he did it for the sake of doing it. this guy's series of actions feel so unnecessary, and even when given a huge benefit of the doubt, can still cause harm in the majority of the scenarios. however, i think that this question is a little incomplete. i think Haidt needs to describe what the man does with the chicken after he has sex with it, and then we can get a clearer picture of the morality of the situation. context: i consider myself a very far-left guy, and im not vegan, although maybe that was already established by the remarks about the benefit of chicken meat. sorry if that was really wordy, lmao

jREG!

He has no interest in calling someone the N word. He never had asserted it was okay to call Trihex or anyone else a Ni***(er). That would be Inherently dehumanising and does cause harm potentially at a societal level. Using the word as part of education Jane Elliot style, humour that doesn’t encourage or incite hate or violence Louis CK style or simply definitionally not having to cuck my way around typing it earlier in this passage style. This is what I understand it to be about anyway. Stance on immutable characteristics has been firm for quite a while right?

5:55 this same logic would apply to canabilism... "they're dead so it's not hurting anyone to them the deceased" while technically true also bruh wtf

Not enough of the comments are talking about the dude that forked the chicken

I really liked how you use real life examples to explain and develop ideas shared in the book. The conclusion is great but I think it needs to be brought up that you could also say the same about debating with conservatives. I think a perfect example is the video of Vaush arguing with the "blacks are inferior" kid In my opinion, there are three things that you should be trying to do in a healthy debate 1) to understand 2) to be convinced 3) to convince But when you argue with conservatives in the same way that Vaush argued with the kid (*that is, by barely taking two minutes having actual arguments and spending the rest of the time memeing, disrespecting and questioning the interests of the kid*), you're not doing any of those three: the only thing you're achieving is a strong backfire effect. The leftist audience who will have had a few laughs will stay left and the right wingers who will have felt humiliated will stay right. And that kid? Who probably had no community and no place to call his home until this group of racist conservatives welcomed him with open hands and called him their own. That kid who probably needs serious help. Will that conversation have helped him? Or will it simply have been a shovel that dug his hole even further? That rooted and locked him in his toxic environment even more than he already was? To the kid, that was just pure evidence that no other community will respect and acknowledge him. Food for thought I guess. Anyways, sorry my rant is over. Your video was honestly really enjoyable. And funny too :)

It's wrong because the chicken should still be regarded with some level of dignity even if it's dead.

11:13 With the Micro PP destiny argument, If a person would be ignorant of your behind-the-back comments you made of them, if they didn't hear you talkin' smack, then were they truly harmed? Unless your comments weren't fully slanderous and the slander didn't have terrible implications with said implications having dire results(I.E X is a thief, X is a molester, X did Y) then shitty jeers and names don't do much. Also, I am a firm believer that the N word should be stripped of negative conotations and should instead be used endearingly. Same with the term Cracker. Who's with me!?

Yow!

As a moderat right winger this makes soo much sense to me! I always wondered why you constantly devide sociaty in different sections that have no ability to function on there own. For me, sociaty is a system, an cybernetic organization of essential parts and the only thing policies should do is to enhance its efficiency, it's all about the Funktioning and growth of the ingroup... But you leftist just don't have one!

Would like more info but currently yes it’s immoral due to depriving someone else of sustenance, possible harm to self and then others… HEY. What the fuck. Where’s my answer? What my answer just nothing to you huh.

Why r u a leftist ?!?!? U seem too smart

The music is so fucking annoying.

Instead of leftist unity why not libertarian unity with ancoms and ancaps working together, now that's based.

Loyalty, authority, sanctity, liberty. I don't understand how the first three could ever be good things. As a leftist, I do however believe in liberty. I believe one should be free to do what they want as long as it doesn't cause harm. Being loyal to a party or a person means you continue to support them even if they do something you disagree with, which makes no sense. I support what I agree with. Authority means one person having control over another, which should never be the case. All people should be equal. Sanctity? I don't really understand this one at all. Religion is an outdated set of rules made up by people a long time ago. It shouldn't control politics.

conservatives cooperate more because being bigoted is the most important thing to each of them

Honestly until we get our shit together,I'm not participating in any sort of leftist activity.
