I will be the first to tell you that it seems a little weird that a streamer who spends an inordinate amount of time gaming, like Asmongold, is one of the most interesting conservative thinkers today.
Hear, hear, John. This whole oppressor/oppressed thing is both a lazy shortcut to avoid actual fact gathering and rational thinking, and it's also the playbook of Marxism. Steven Crowder makes this point all the time when he links liberal "thought" with Marxist dialectic. The whole rich equals powerful oppressor and poor equals oppressed victim is what will lead a once successful nation to crumble by abandoning values of hard work, effort, and smart thinking, and instead fighting to take from one group (the rich) and give to the other (the poor). It's really an asinine way to look at the world, and an incredibly lazy one: let someone else do the hard work, I'll just swoop in and take it away from them. That's why the idea that Christians should want to be socialists is so brain dead- God doesn't give us permission to steal from anybody. He may choose to reward you for your charity, but He will not reward you for theft. Leftists are always, always, always on the wrong side of morality and common sense; even when at first glance it might look otherwise.
"So, for example, with liberals, if there’s a conflict between a…
…cop and a criminal, the criminal is right.
…black woman and a white woman, the black woman is right.
…white woman and a trans woman, the trans woman is right.
…Israel and the Palestinians, the Palestinians are right.
…black conservatives and a white liberal man, the white liberal man is right.
…straight man and a gay man, the gay man is right.
…Muslim and a Christian, the Muslim is right.
…American citizens and illegal aliens, the illegal alien is right.
…business owner and bums squatting outside their business, the bums are right"
This is the stupid credentialed victim identity rock-paper-scissors game that liberals play. Watch them squirm when there is a conflict between two people owning several difference qualified victim credentials trying to decide which should prevail. Everyone has to be categorized in clean line-up of good person to bad person based on identity (behavior does not matter). A liberal atheist antisemite black Palestinian Muslim trans lesbian female illegal immigrant with a criminal record should be at the top of the list.

Outstanding, and so very true.
