Twitch Streamer Destiny and an Economist Debate Capitalism, Achieve Nothing
www.vice.com
Steven 'Destiny' Bonnell II and Richard Wolff debated economic theories for 90 minutes on Twitch.

I can't believe this is real lol

Throughout the debate, Destiny groaned loudly and twisted around in his chair. He put his hands on his face and rolled his eyes. The Twitch chat rolled along, arbitrarily scoring the debate and getting excited when either participant seemed to get mad.

“You’ve told me a bunch of things that capitalism isn’t. You’ve given me a bunch of random collected facts of history,” Destiny said after Wolff had given what he felt was an unsatisfactory definition of capitalism.

“Why would you talk about the history of it? That’s not relevant,” Destiny said, after asking Wolff why he refused to call the modern American democratic party a socialist party.

I've seen people IRL talk about him and Hasan. Truly the darkest of ages

    I feel like analysing how capitalists behave (possibly using historical examples) is perhaps the best way of figuring out what the definition of capitalism is. idk

      no capitalism is an imaginary set of conditions where everything is good. it's a set of rules I made up just now for how to be a good person and if someone's bad then it's not real capitalism. look at me I'm a liberal
