Hearted Youtube comments on Based Camp with Simone & Malcolm Collins (@SimoneandMalcolm) channel.

  1. Communism in itself depends on a removal of consent.

  2. "HIPPIES DON'T HAVE MONEY!!!" - Eric Cartmen

  3. I find it really funny that woke characters always have to be ugly. It's like they know they are spiteful mutants šŸ¤£
    740
  4. The answer is simple. Woke stuff sucks. Itā€™s totally reductive and insulting to everyone regardless of race.
    664
  5. One gay for Trump was stronger than all the white dudes for Harris šŸ˜‚
    633
  6. Aah yes the modern audience that won't shut up or show upšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

  7. Scott Presler has not received the credit and praise he deserves. Thanks for this video.

  8. I think an asian broke into my house. When he left, all of my kid's homework was done.

  9. "Woke" is entirely performative. Virtually nobody who spouts woke ideology online actually lives or substantiates it in their daily private life. Being woke online gives them an echo chamber of similarly performative people who just congratulate each other for their bravery and distract themselves from the fact they are overwhelmingly suffering from depression and just miserable people in general. This 'audience' cannot be motivated or activated for anything substantive beyond making posts on twitter or other social platforms.
    502
  10. "Women especially get emotionally rewarded for dressing in a way and acting in a way that causes people to think less of them intellectually." Hit the nail on the head
    422
  11. Scott contacted me personally on twitter when I announced that Iā€™m walking away from the Democrat Party. He offered his phone number to call him if I wanted advice and had questions. This dude is legit. Much respect for him.
    359
  12. Woke people I know don't like competitive games. They prefer reading, word games, the sims, farm games, just nothing that will remind them of ever losing
    321
  13. I ran a thought experiment with GPT: if a nuclear weapon threatening a city with 10 million people could only be defused by saying a racial or ethnic slur, GPT says it still wouldnā€™t be acceptable to say it.
    313
  14. Straight dude here and Scott Pressler is an American Hero. I hope the Trump team recognizes this man.
    303
  15. We got anime becoming real before GTA 6
    292
  16. This YouTube channel is vastly underrated. High level intellectual topics and great guests to boot. Well done.
    291
  17. My son plays Rust. My daughter plays Minecraft. She world builds and relaxes. Heā€™s 13 and sheā€™s 16. She barely plays anymore. Heā€™s totally addicted but is limited to 2 days a week currently. Heā€™d play 12 hours a day if he could. Itā€™s a multiplayer survival game. Itā€™s like going on an adventure with your buddies. Now they are both allergic to woke at this point. I remember back in 2021 I was totally anti woke and they thought I was a bit nuts over it. They have since come to my position. By the way Iā€™m Gen X (52).
    281
  18. Gay man here and I support Trump.

  19. This is going to sound sociopathic via text, so please understand this is a deliberately value-free analysis and is not an endorsement of vigilantism in a moral sense. In many ways, vigilantism helped build higher societies. No tribe emerged from the primordial aether with bureaucratized and abstracted concepts of legality and ethics which in any way resembled high civilizations. Vigilantism was one of the costs "priced in" by social codes. If you screwed a man hard enough, he might just come for you. You can see this reflected in folk wisdom such as "nothing more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose". That cute little adage isn't saying "oh, those with nothing on the line try harder", it's warning that once someone has no chips left on the game board, they might flip the table. History is replete with this echo: "surrender with honor", "allowing an exit", "chose to retire", etc. In our very safe, very insulated, very civilized world, these might seem quant or be accepted as received moral precepts, but they are based on a firm inherited calculus: every man, no matter how reasonable, has a point where he'll turn to tooth and claw, if only to make you bleed with him. We might think of our age as one built on these costs, but so managed that we no longer pay them. Unjust words no longer result in duels, but we say slander is bad. The shopkeeper no longer has to beat thieves, because the justice system punishes theft. And the tribe doesn't have to mob-justice the degenerate who wrecked the common green, because social shame makes the idea of transgressing abhorrent, well before the thought of violence arises. Or rather... our society was functional. For a blip of time in the late modernity, the West managed to reach an amazing peak. We'd priced in vigilantism to our social systems so efficiently that the vigilantism was no longer ever actioned. Unfortunately, over time this lead to virtuous violence being classed as mere violence, and morally equal to unjust violence. Like many modern ills, this wasn't felt at first, as the moral inertia of the old system propelled behavior that was no longer incentivized by the current market. Slowly, though, new actors came about in an age with new incentives, and they better adapted to their environment. If a powerful CEO can get ahead with profit maximization through legal murder, and the only penalty is a fractional hit on a rocketing upward graph? Why not? The only external cost is some disapproval from people he doesn't care about. He's optimized for his environment, because he's recognized that the formerly "priced in" vigilantism behind that disapproval has been replaced with a memory of said vigilantism, like a vestigial clause in a defunct contract. We've been at this point for some time. The grinding inhumanity of our era would have brought our ancestors to violence long before. We've constrained this through the anti-agentic "all violence is (equally) bad" propaganda. So yes, this murder, and moreover, the general public acceptance, is indicative of social degeneration. But it's not a descent from normality. It's a return. A ball was thrown into the air, and for a time (the late twentieth and early twenty first centuries) it seemed to hang suspended at its apex, but it has now begun to fall. The proper response is to recognize where we are, what we are, the historical anomaly we are exiting, and decide how to proceed.

  20. Everything I learned about Destiny has been against my will
    260
  21. I am not super happy with how I acted towards Simone in this video (her take was much stronger than mine and I couldn't see it because I was waiting to tell mine). I thought about not posting it but don't believe in editing our public persona to not include off days or it creates unrealistic expectations.
    256
  22. "A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?"
    255
  23. This episode made me hate the classic fat lazy white female DEI agent f*cking over the Asian who worked 13 more hours than her a week growing up in this new system of institutionalized racism. Democrats never stopped being the party of institutional racism they just got smug about it. And here is our discord if you want to chat go to the section on this episode: https://discord.gg/EGFRjwwS92
    251
  24. Telling the unlucky guys "you may be doomed, but you're still better off living in false hope!" will never work, and you'd have to be dumb to think it might.
    245
  25. šŸ˜‚ 10 minutes in and this is already more Pro black then 99% of what I see from pro-black influencers. Good shit.
    230
  26. My wife delivered our second yesterday, a beautiful baby girl. Her big brother is in love with his new little sister. God is good, keep having babies, brothers and sisters.
    228
  27. Malcolm is in for a wild ride watching Dustborn's story play out. The main character isn't merely a bad person. The main character is the most awful major character I think I've ever seen. Now, there are some that do as bad things as the main character in other works of fiction, but they're not self righteous about it. They're not "the oppressed good guys". Dustborn is basically a tankie psychosis simulator. Fascinating and honestly a great work of art, for the exact opposite reasons of what the game creators intended.
    228
  28. My parents are Korean, and my sister and I were born here in the states. Basically, my parents convinced my sister and I, that we were such defective human beings, that we, on our own, decided that we should not reproduce. (All the while, they would encourage us to have kids. Note that we had high class rankings in school and my sister and I both went to an Ivy league school.) I am still aghast at having discovered that my mom was just tuning out everything we said, and just using emotional weapons against us to dismiss what we said and just shut us up -- but doing this in such a way, that it was portrayed like they were so much wiser than us and just thought everything we said was just stupid and terrible. I finally figured this out through my 40's, and I started asking my mom what she thought I had just said. It wasn't Alzheimers. She was just put together in such a way, that she never registered anything we said or thought it would matter. I don't know if I've explained this clearly, or even if anyone might believe me, but really, I don't know how to process this.
    226
  29. This is the most bizarre coming out video I've seen in my entire life
    223
  30. You are missing a crucial element. That element being the out sourcing of jobs that happened in the 80s-90s. Most of those jobs were originally held by black men. Same with the massive surge of immigration in the 60s-90s.
    220
  31. We're all in this together. Gay or straight. šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øšŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øšŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø
    205
  32. It's a feature, not a bug. The problem is the collective societal gaslighting - telling men that they're "privileged".
    200
  33. I recall a spicy youtuber did a video on kids with 20 hous at daycare show similar symptoms as children who have been abandoned.
    199
  34. This is a collab I never expected but I'm all for it
    198
  35. I'm an academic running a lab in a research-intensive US university, and I rely on federal funding to do medical research. Even though my job could be at risk, I cannot understate how grossly corrupt universities, academic medical centers, and the research enterprise are. We need a shake-up, because universities are failing in their fiduciary responsibilities to taxpayers who have given them the benefit of the doubt for decades. I'm a citizen first and a scientist second. As a scientist, I'm so overwhelmed with bureaucracy that I spend 100% of my regularly allotted effort on it. I'm no different from most of my peers. We then spend very little of our time actually thinking about science, doing bench work, and mentoring/training people. I would gladly take a pay cut to just get back time, energy, and cognitive space to do science, whether that's in a corporation, government agency, or reconceptualized university.
    196
  36. Why does transition ruin skills? 1. Hormonal derangement and poisononig (Biochemical) 2. Being a protected class ruins feedback mechanisms (Social) 3. Oppresion paradigm prevents the person from struggling with themselves anymore, rather they will interpret struggles as being the fault of the external world not giving them enough allowances or deference (Psychological) Further I assert that transition being associated with worse functional outcomes (not to mention general health) rather than improved functional outcomes, proves that transition does not unlock the 'true self' or improve the self.
    194
  37. I am a gay man and I support president Trump.
    193
  38. I see in all my circles, from coworkers to family, that most women are hopping from rekationship to relationship in their 20s, then around 32 they finally start thinking about settling down.
    187
  39. There is no way out of this. Good luck everybody!
    183
  40. Our son has never set foot in a daycare. He had a total of three tantrums throughout his young childhood. My first job was in a daycare. It was initially a financial choice not to put him in daycare, but as we saw his development and behavior exceed what I saw in the daycare, it became a development choice.
    179
  41. Losers often identify with more violent losers because it allows them to fantasize about living in a world where their rage is not impotent.
    178
  42. Being called weird by deranged sociopaths is a good thing.
    165
  43. Male feminist. Neither surprising nor new.
    164
  44. As a Nigerian, here's my simple answer: Bad geography, poor social and economic systems, poor political systems, failing legal and social institutions, dutch disease, tribalism and others. During the golden age of Islam, under Harun al-Rashid, the civilization was experiencing great economic, social and scientific development and Islam was moderatingbabd becoming more Secular until Orthodox pushback from Imams and others caused these changes to stop. Then, the Christian West embraced modernity and reform and advanced in all fields. The fact that Christianity abolished institutions like slavery, broke clan structures by removing cousin marriage, and stopped the ban on usary which led to stuff like capitalism and meritocracy, while islam refused to do all of this. Also, the colonialism excuse is just lazy and mainly used by tribalist Arabs as an excuse. Same way Pan-Africans use it as an excuse for Africa's failings.
    164
  45. My prediction is that corporatism has convinced most women to be antinatalist. Human gestation does not fit into a quarterly reporting cycle.
    161
  46. When I first heard about the vasectomy van outside the DNC, I thought for sure it had to be a MAGA troll. Imagine my hilarious amusement when I found out it was a Democrat idea.
    161
  47. Ever notice how many ā€œearly childhood expertsā€ donā€™t have kids? Just an observation.
    159
  48. I am very grateful for my teen pregnancy. It eliminated a lot of choices in my life, and looking back, I think it was a good thing. It made my choices much easier and more simple, and allowed me to feel like I knew my purpose at a very early age. Iā€™m now 38 with 6 children and I would be happy to have another if I can šŸ˜‚ AND excited about the possibility of grandkids in the next few years!
    157
  49. The public is slowly learning that corporations, systems, and laws arenā€™t real. Things happen because people powerful people make them happen. And once that genie is fully out of the bottle, it doesnā€™t go back in.
    155
  50. To be consistent I believe all accusations against male feminists.
    153
  51. I am the mother of five children. I thank God everyday for them. All of my children are married except for my youngest. Heā€™s had a terrible time finding a partner. Women are just not interested in him. Itā€™s so sad because he has a lot to offer, and he would love to have a family.
    152
  52. Iā€™ve been banned from so many subreddits for pointing out how the wachowskis lost their talent when they became women.
    152
  53. Malcolm needs to be on the left side of the screen. Now simone is facing nothing, lol.
    151
  54. Destiny is the type of guy to not know why his wife left him because there isnā€™t a peer reviewed study on it.
    151
  55. On hierarchy, here is how deep it goes. One kid took another kids toy from the playground. When the younger kid (whose toy it was) said, "that's my toy," the older kid's response was literally "I am 10 years old." And BOTH SIDES UNDERSTOOD that it was no longer the younger kid's toy
    151
  56. Warning: this episode may cause autism.
    148
  57. Andrea Dworkin who pushed the idea that all sex is grape was originally a grape fetishist.
    148
  58. Infinite immigrants and more homeless Americans will solve this issue.
    148
  59. See Christianism in Ethiopia: "Christianity in Ethiopia dates back to the ancient Kingdom of Aksum, when the King Ezana first adopted the faith in the 4th century AD. This makes Ethiopia one of the first regions in the world to officially adopt Christianity"
    148
  60. Remember on southpark when cartman was trying to get eveyone to recognize that "hippies dont have money!" Reminds me of the "woke"
    146
  61. The game in question was Hitman (Absolution, I believe). And the even funnier part is that she claimed you were rewarded by the game for killing those women. In fact, the game heavily penalizes you, both in terms of score after the mission is over and just practically because it makes doing your job harder. The game is called Hitman not Wanton Woman Slaughter, the goal is to kill your target and then escape unnoticed. If you can make it look like an accident, itā€™s even more rewarded. So her lies werenā€™t just lies, they were the exact opposite of the reality.
    146
  62. Could you imagine the ridicule a man would get if he married himself!?šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
    145
  63. One day I was a lefty who disliked the last jedi. I went to the internet to complain and next thing I know Iā€™m a paleo libertarian catholic monarchist. Quite a journey may I said.
    145
  64. Gen Z (2000) Black American male. Thereā€™s no way Iā€™d ever vote like a leftist.
    144
  65. My mum got her degrees through the open university while raising me and my siblings. She had my older brother when she was nineteen, so was a young mother, got her education and then went on to have her high impact career. That is a much better way to balance career and family, yet women seem to be encouraged to do the opposite
    141
  66. The future will belong to the people who actually want to be there.
    141
  67. "I read dumb-ass romance novels" This was exactly what I wanted to hear someone say out loud this morning.
    140
  68. You think you hate journalists enough. You think you do, but you don't.
    140
  69. ā€œmy bOyFrIEnd iSNā€™t geTTinG aNy foR A wHiLe.ā€ Haha, yeahā€¦not from you šŸ˜‰šŸ¤£
    139
  70. The number of economically viable men that could afford to provide for a family is going ever lower due to high taxes, open borders, regulations, concentration of wealth, financialisation. The number of women viable for a stable long term relationship is also going ever lower due to entitlement, politicalisation, promiscuity, mental health issues. This really explains the low birth rates and unstable family units.
    139
  71. as a European, I get it now...
    137
  72. I went from democrat to republican once I got married because I could finally see the value a man brings to the table and women and childrenā€™s vulnerability without one. I was a strong I can do it all career woman, then I got pregnant and was tired all the time couldnā€™t work. Having a husband to carry the load while I was in such a vulnerable state literally saved my life. Being pregnant and living in Oakland California I became afraid to go out alone because in my vulnerable state I was a magnet for homeless and crackheads. A crazy person would walk into a crowded restaurant spot me and come my way. I needed my husband for literally everything. Now Iā€™m a stay at home mom with two small kids and itā€™s only possible because my husband is a workhorse. I realized my life is privileged because of the strong men in my family. My grandfathers were work horses, so is my father and husband. Iā€™ve always had protection, resources, inheritance, help with down payment on my first investment property, my dad provided me free office space for 5 years on my business, raised with stay at home mom and grandmothers so never went to preschool. All of this was because some blue collar men didnā€™t make excuses and went out there and got after it. I was a feminist but didnā€™t realize I was successful because of those men. Getting married and seeing my husband that in our house hold helped me realize it and become red pill.
    130
  73. My mom made casual sex uncool for me by telling me overly explicit personal stories. It was cringey but Iā€™m grateful!
    130
  74. ā€œIā€™m so mad Iā€™m removing myself from the gene poolā€. Lmao okayā€¦?
    130
  75. A femcel is never an incel, rarely remotely celibate.
    128
  76. Nuns to the State is the perfect description of women who vote Democrat.
    128
  77. This is what I've been telling everyone for the last 10 years. It is so obvious. Unfortunately, the only response I ever got was "Sir, this is a Pizza Hut".
    128
  78. I like how Malcom started to process how people who didnā€™t develop farming were affected and immediately stops before he gets into trouble šŸ˜‚
    127
  79. Dang demonetized and you got a UN community note. Which means what youā€™re saying is true.
    127
  80. Finally, somebody pushing back against blaming it all on porn. The porn argument annoys me to no end.
    126
  81. I'm just a white neckbearded guy, but isn't one of the main concerns in S. Korea and other Asian countries the fact that wives are expected to move into their husband's home and take care of his parents? With work, kids, and everything else, adding in-laws who treat you like a personal slave asking a bit too much?
    125
  82. Anita was engaged to her cat, but he ghosted her so she lowered her standards and married herself.
    124
  83. People don't understand how much sexual morality has been changed by technology. Before birth control and modern medicine the negative externalities of eros outside of marriage were really, REALLY, bad. In Victorian London so many unwanted infants we abandoned that for many decades it was a completely normal experience for even a middle class Londoner to have to step over dead babies in the street. As for disease, before penicillin syphilis would turn your genitals into what looked like a necrotizing bee hive before you completely lost your mind. Hyper prudishness used to make A LOT more sense.
    124
  84. Isn't that that weird group that was invented to harass Tommy Robinson because he kept speaking up about the grooming gang thing?
    124
  85. I find the Handmaid fetish so boring, narcissistic and passive that itā€™s not surprising the most NPC women are into it.
    122
  86. I always wanted to start a Leftist twitter just so after I established a large Leftist user base I could change the name to "Bitter"
    121
  87. I think something people have to remember when people say something's bad because it's illegal is that pretty much every genocide ever committed or attempted was legal where it was happening.
    118
  88. Based gays are the best gays. Im not even surprised tbh.
    116
  89. Imagine being a baby getting to hear Yarvin
    116
  90. I think it's like lateness. Especially if either wants it. Good reasons are acceptable. But a consistent pattern of denying the other is a problem and should be rectified.
    114
  91. "This Video Will Get You on an FBI Watchlist" Clicks video instantly
    114
  92. I also blame the "live and let live" attitude that's prevalent with libertarians and neo-cons for why the left was able to seize control of everything in the 2010s, you can't fight a culture war if you let your enemy do whatever they want without criticism.
    113
  93. Remember, most laws don't have any enforcement clause other than litigation. If you can't afford a $10K retainer, you get no justice
    113
  94. People are really easily horrified at the prospect of institutional care for people with profound mental illness but somehow totally okay/ambivalent to the idea of open air mental hospitals with no regular food, no reliable shelter, police officers instead of nurses, and street drugs instead of medicine.
    111
  95. The first example of this transition that comes to mind is Sargon. In the last decade or so he transitioned from atheist gamer to far-right Christian ally anti-woke-DEI etc.
    111
  96. Scott Presler is a national hero.
    111
  97. How badly do you have to screw up that 180,000(!!!) Amish give you the middle finger and friggin VOTE for the first time. The last four years made the Amish MAD mad, and Scott deserve alllllll the applause for all his hard work
    111
  98. The side that wants to win, beats the side that wants to be left alone.
    110
  99. There was a HUGE hint in there. The guy laments his toddler breaking things despite trying to wear him out. If your strategy is to tire your child instead of actually teaching them good vs bad, you're gonna have a bad time. Everybody on my liberal side of the family lets their children run wild as long as they are inside. They dont discipline at all and blame it on ADHD. The stupidity is too much for me to understand
    110
  100. She wont have kids? And nothing of value was lost from the future.
    110
  101. Scott Pressler is an inspiration. First noticed when he organized cleanup of American cities. Scott keeps it real. We love him!
    110
  102. The Jewish culture is very family oriented. To become a top chess player you need to have a devoted parent taking you to all the tournaments, setting you up with coaching, and so on. Having "helicopter parents" is a common denominator in a huge percentage of the top chess players - Kasparov's mother was legendary for her influence on her son, for instance, same with Carlsen's dad (neither was Jewish though, though Kasparov had a Jewish father), etc.
    109
  103. A woman wants a man who is such that her life would be improved if she chose to invest authority in him.
    109
  104. ā€œCivilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.ā€ ā€• Robert E. Howard
    108
  105. This is not a laundered conservative movement. This is leftist equivalent of nunnery, with the state being their church and parties/NGOs/woke corps being their convents.
    107
  106. Europeans have the unrestricted right to obey their bureaucrats.
    107
  107. Scott is a hero. The Amish saved the United States for at least for 4 years.
    106
  108. No way. My AI girlfriend agrees with all my political beliefs
    106
  109. The big guy tearing his white guys for Harris shirt is a parody.
    105
  110. The fear of pregnancy is mostly unfounded within developed countries. Mortality of mothers is less than 1% yet the fear mongering around it is constant.
    103
  111. If you think strong men are dangerous, wait until you see what weak men are capable of. See: Destiny.
    103
  112. Catholic fertility decline is in line with decline in Mass attendance and belief in core doctrines. Most surveys don't distinguish between practicing Catholics and people who identify that way.
    103
  113. I agree with what you are saying. It's not that women want someone to 'push them down', they actually want to be 'lifted up' by someone which does imply that the partner is higher or more capable than them in some way. The real key here is children. Women want to be able to be fully attentive to the children, so the man shes with cannot be like another child, he has to be a rock and provider. Not so she can be oppressed like a little rat, but so she can be a more secure and stable mother.
    103
  114. The gap between 'intends to have children' and actually having children must be much worse today because, unlike in the past, he mothers frequently are putting off pregnancy until their mid 30s to early 40s. It's not that easy to get pregnant at those ages, certainly with no guarantees. Additionally, not all couples can even afford the fertility treatments often required to do so.
    103
  115. "Clothing" makes me think more like nurse or maid costume, i.e. lingerie
    103
  116. "If you had to, what kind of criminal organization would you start" "Government"
    102
  117. Now I'm curious if Malcolm also follows Kirsche Verstahl
    101
  118. I think you are missing a large part of this discussion by not considering the Hays code. The consistent draw of sexuality, so that it was good business to have it on screen, coupled with censors who required that it could not be shown in a positive light, led to a long term association of characters, such as the femme fatale, who were on the one hand explicitly sexualised, and on the other explicitly evil. This is kind of an essential peice of the story.
    100
  119. Apparently, the Background Check to work at a Dollar General is more stringent than that of someone applying to the Secret Service
    100
  120. People are starving for meaning. Suffering, even though it sucks, is meaningful. I can understand why people without other sources of meaning are putting their own suffering in the highest place of value.
    100
  121. You should do an episode on dog culture and how itā€™s a replacement for having kids.
    100
  122. Honestly, this is the first time I had hope and optimism for America since at least 2008.

  123. He basically says Israels people are nationalists, which helps them have a common goal. Western countries are not allowed to be this way, are actively punished for it, and told not to be. By media and institutions massively influenced and controlled by?
    99
  124. A bunch of women seeing therapists who accuse other people of being crazy.

  125. I'm really glad Wendigoon said to not attack him though, because I was about to lash out in hate filled anger. Like actual "I hate you and I literally want to see you die" mental state for what he said about Appalachians. Then I saw Wendigoon's comment, and it reminded me to step back and behave more Christ like about this. Now I just feel genuinely sorry for him, and I just wish to hear of him receiving mental help because he unironically needs it. Also needs friends cause it's clear he's lonely and depressed, but then again nobody wants to be friends with someone that blows up at you and dehumanises you for having a slightly differing opinion.
    99
  126. Trump definitely went easy on Biden which was the correct move, and I agree I'm impressed Trump is a little nicer and more reserved this time so far.
    98
  127. It used to hurt my feelings when I would ask my husband why he wanted to marry me, and he said he thought I would make a good mother. I was hoping he would say because of my exceptional beauty or something. But, now that I'm a mother, I'm so glad he picked me for my virtues instead of just looks, because I know my looks are fading, but my personality will stick around.
    98
  128. 1. Persians also have an older identity, they have a cultural memory for Empire. They also have an Indo-European language instead of an Afro-Asianic language. 2. This data from Iran also explains Mormons in Utah vs Mormons in the diaspora
    97
  129. Heā€™s a fox and sheā€™s a cat. Their fur suits are hidden in the closet. Calling it now
    97
  130. Letā€™s start talking like having zero kids is actually having -2. If you have 2 kids then you are at zero. Only the third one counts
    97
  131. in 2016 I was in a feminism class (I took a double major in philosophy.... long story). I know, terrible. I had enough and wrote this short little paper on why this feminism crap was the slave morality (see genealogy of morals) and it didn't go over too well :)
    97
  132. Alright, woman veteran (US Navy) here adding my 2 cents, enlisted for 4 years and went to 2 deployments. Most women I met have ended up single moms, and two of my good friends are into their third marriages. There are lots of cheating and promiscuity. I met very few men faithful to their wives, and out of all the couples that happened during my 4 year stay, I only know of one that survived. Personally, best way is to stay out of relationships while there which is what I did. I went to church with awesome bootcamp girlfriends and pretty much, most people I worked with thought I was a lesbian which was fine by me. Saved me a lot of drama. I did end up marrying a few years later after I got back home to an amazing man, but Iā€™m not the typical demographic you guys normally look at (immigrant, hispanic, from Miami). So I donā€™t even know if thatā€™s helpful or not. I donā€™t regret my time in the military because it helped me grow as a person, however to this day I donā€™t think thatā€™s a healthy place for a woman. My humble opinion.
    97
  133. Hey, leaflet is here!
    96
  134. All I want is a cosplay protest with more Druids, Bards, Blade Runners and Redcoats, is that too much to ask for?
    96
  135. The debate reminded me of the simpsons scene... "stop stop he's already dead!"
    96
  136. My ex wife regretted having kids. I told her fine. Go live your best life. She was upset when she got neither child support nor spousal support. Why she would think you would get child support without having custody of the kids is mind boggling. Some people just dont think. But having kids was one of the greatest things I have done. Never regretted it. Even when my oldest totaled my truck.
    96
  137. Scott Presler deserves the presidential medal of freedom. He very likely had the greatest single impact on this election. His videos prior to getting involved were absolutely inspiring and I'm beyond appreciative of anyone who sees what a travesty this country was becoming and worked his ever loving ass off to change.
    95
  138. This is fantastic. As a non citizen, I look forward to seeing how this can be applied in my own country.
    95
  139. Take care of yourself Malcolm. Your long-term health is more important that a single video.
    95
  140. "Mar-a-largo Breeding Pits" I'm using that one on my mother in law.
    95
  141. 9:32 The Ethiopian Orthodox Church was founded in 328. Even Saint Augustine was a bishop in Algeria, and he was a 4th-century bishop; Christianity was dominating Northern Africa until Muslims raided and forcibly converted the Christian population.
    95
  142. They exist but they either donā€™t buy the stuff they demand to be changed to fit their views, or are tourists who only show up once a thing becomes popular- often to demand it to be changed. All that said this isnā€™t about the current audience- itā€™s about indoctrination of the next generation via these movies, shows, books, games and so on. At least in theory. But I wouldnā€™t get cocky about their lack of success so far.
    95
  143. Itā€™s not even that Simone. Itā€™s as simple as ā€œif I say a bad thing about the brown man I might get called racist.ā€ Being called racist over here is one of the worst things you can call someone. Itā€™s crazy.
    94
  144. Didnā€™t a former director of the CIA say to Trump ā€œWe were here before you Mr. Trump, weā€™ll be here while youā€™re here and weā€™ll be here long after youā€™re gone.ā€
    94
  145. Pro abortionist calling someone else a eugenics supporter is a good meme
    94
  146. The best part about this episode is watching Simone's face during each rant. It's a face that says "Oh my God, these were the people I supported the entire first half of my life..."
    93
  147. OMG Scott is an absolute CHAD. Thank God for men like Scott Presler.
    93
  148. I had a South Korean friend in high school. I never met her Dad. He worked for a large car company and had originally been transferred to the US. They then transferred him to Brazil, but he didnā€™t want to uproot the family again, so they lived in different countries and he would fly in. Her mom was a stay-at-home mom. The house was kept immaculately. They were so cleanly that my friend was required to shower twice daily. The mom was kept very busy taking 3 kids to a variety of different activities, but especially cram school type things as there was massive academic pressure from their culture. Both of her siblings graduated valedictorian of their classes. My friend always felt like a failure as she was only salutatorian of our class. She said her parents didnā€™t really want her as they wanted 1 girl and 1 boy, but she was the second daughter before they got a boy. It was kind of sad, but she was such a sweet girl. None of those 3 kids have gotten married or had kids to my knowledge.
    93
  149. This is just yet another example of how our society has decided to remove all skin-in-the-game from personal decisions. That is, we seem to think it's OK for people to pass on the cost of their decisions and actions on to others, through the government of course. This is insane and is bound to destroy society. As we can plainly see today. People talk about AI alignment. How about talking about human alignment?
    92
  150. An smart dog Is easier to train than a dumb one.

  151. Appalachian backwoodsman here. My gf does martial arts with me so we routinely throw and hit each other. Best relationship I've ever had šŸ˜‚
    91
  152. Silicone valley been abusing the system for years. Saw one guy who complaining about the system and how they've been using this system as a way to bring in for jobs cheap labour that would in a regular free and fair market would normally cost tech company 2x as much as what they pay H1-B. On top of that, H1-B usually have a lower quality of skill compared to current talent already in the US, so yeah Tech companies are BSing just to afford cheaper labour they don't have to pay market rate. ,
    91
  153. My spirit-animal is a squirrel now swollen and fat from the tears of fools
    91
  154. Scott Presler is both Merry and Pippin beseeching the Ents to march to Isengard. The Amish walking to the polls has an element of the mythic.
    91
  155. "That which is freely given has no value "
    91
  156. Gaming history here. Make concord a verb, you know very well what it means. Example: "The Titanic got concorded." "Go concord yourself."
    90
  157. WOAH A SIMONE INTRO?!?! šŸ˜±šŸ¤Æ I was NOT expecting that! BASED!

  158. Statistically, ears on baby outfits increase their cuteness by 83% My source? Me

  159. In that culture, a divorce was VERY easy process only for the male. Jesus was advocating for men to not abandon their spouse.
    90
  160. Former dog breeder here - give me 20 years (7 generations) and I can turn pits into golden retrievers. Problem is, the pits aggression and prey drive is what too many people breed them for. They want that aggression.
    89
  161. I actually met Scott Presler, hes the only political activist taller than me.
    89
  162. Trump seemed personally insulted when they went after his crowd sizes, but in a way that made it seem like he cared about the people in his crowds. Democrats can't seem to grasp that Trump would see his crowds as his people. During the debate his response was basically, "I have people who believe in me while you have actors being paid to come on busses."
    88
  163. Congratulation on the pregnancy, hope everything goes well
    88
  164. Make America Weird Again
    88
  165. the crossover we've all been waiting for
    87
  166. May want to talk to the Trump people. Since Simone is running for office, this counts as foreign interference in our elections.
    87
  167. If I can go to prison for misrepresenting my taxes by $0.01, then a parasite can be fired for wasting my money.
    87
  168. This is so funny! When i first got married, while my husband was in school, not only did I do 100% of household tasks, my job was cleaning houses. So I cleaned all day, came home and cooked and cleaned, and was the happiest I've ever been lol
    86
  169. Amanda Marcotte: why doesnā€™t anyone fantasize about ME dying šŸ˜¢
    86
  170. I'm super confused what the deal is with always being told we need more and more people, but the job market seems to actually be beyond abysmal in my own personal experience.
    86
  171. The problems are intellectual. Stoicism used to literally be taught in grade school. Now they teach radical egalitarianism where it is your duty to be upset if anyone is doing better than you. All our problems are downstream from the schools.
    86
  172. How to tell something is a sex thing: adherents say it's not a sex thing.
    86
  173. I think one big thing that Asian media like anime and anime inspired video games have over Western media is sincerity. Anime seems to be much better at balancing light-hearted moments and serious moments without one taking away from the other.
    86
  174. Is it weird that I get Pod Person vibes from you two, as well? I love your channel and discussions, but would totally not get into the windowless van with you. Especially Malcolm. It might just be auti vibes, but the two things are virtually the same anyhow.
    85
  175. This is so well done. When people talk about legacy media dying and being replaced by content creators offering 1000% higher quality content and analysis, THIS is why.
    85
  176. Who would have thought that Kamala Harris would be the best Red Pill for the Republican Party
    85
  177. The c-section rate isn't high in the USA because of large heads. Compare the rates in the USA to Nordic countries and Israel. Americans don't just have huge heads compared to these other people, it's medical culture and dogma that leads to unnecessary c-sections in the US. Doctors will often use the excuse that the baby was "too big". Business of Being Born is a good place to start if you want to research how broken birth is in the US
    84
  178. I had to tap out at 5. Was trying to get a girl, but ended up with all boys. But they are very healthy. I took some shit for marrying a younger woman, who was 21 at the time, but I now have a total of 5 kids. My oldest is 16, his class president, top of his class in every subject, and gets national awards for math, and was coding at the age of 11. AThe next oldest is on the same trajectory. They are taller than me too. I lift weights with them, teach them how to garden, and whenever possible to be a leader. Leaders live better lives. I teach them about girls too, try to red pill, not black pill them. It's interesting seeing them surpass me in certain mental areas. I had a brain injury in Iraq in 2004, when I was less than 50ft from a bomb that went off. I'm not stupid, but I sometimes have to sit and think about things twice as long as I ought to in order to figure something out. But my boys, wow are they smart. I blame it on the home cooked food.
    84
  179. Long overdue. We cannot accept centralised control over information streams wether done by governments of private entities.
    84
  180. My son (who is gay) went to a Pride meeting in his local town. Much to his surprise the meeting was run by 3 straight white (liberal) women who repeatedly went on rants about how horrible white men were and how they were there to support all trans people. At one point he asked "I thought this meeting was for all LGBT etc". and was told we don't care about gay white males šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«. Needless to say he cancelled his membership in the group.Oh, and he is a staunch conservative who just happens to be gayšŸ˜Ž
    84
  181. They hate beauty.
    84
  182. "Shooting the Glass Ceiling." Yes.
    84
  183. I moved my family from a booming suburb in California to a Wyoming town in 2019. A primary reason was that our neighborhood park/playground was taken over by homeless and drug addicts. For awhile the city would send cops to roust them out, but eventually they stopped even doing that. The powers-that-be essentially decided that the freedom of adult drug addicts was more important that giving children outdoor spaces to play. It was anti-natalist at it's core.
    84
  184. The antiwhiteism in Germany is insane. Illegal, criminal nonwhite migrants ignored (& supported financially by the govt), while native Europeans are hunted down for nonviolent traffic infractions. And their taxes go to pay for their assaulters. šŸ¤¬
    84
  185. Greetings from Iran, Malcolm and Simone. I have been watching you religiously since last summer.
    84
  186. "She could've been tighter" Malcolm out of context is unhinged and I love it šŸ˜‚
    84
  187. I donā€™t think they need to forgive college debt but the debt shouldnā€™t have special protections against bankruptcy
    84
  188. In college, I always found this conversation happened hilariously often: a girl would at some point slip in a variation of the phrase, "women can do anything they want to do!" to which I would ask, "okay, sure, but what do YOU want to do?" They would always - and I mean always - say, "I want to be a stay at home mom with kids."
    83
  189. "It's so crowded nobody goes there anymore." -Yogi Berra
    83
  190. Simone is spot on in that it's deep classism at play here. The UK basically has a caste system close to that of India, it's just not explicitly stated.
    83
  191. 6:02 wait. So Tash demands that everyone use her "they" pronouns and you're bad if you don't, but it's okay to disrespect her mother by wearing her horns even though she knows her mother wouldnt like it? The narcissism is WILD
    83
  192. Well, when it is basically illegal to have any childhood like your parents.
    83
  193. It can be argued that assisting in people exiting life should be decriminalised, but the government should not be involved beyond that. The very idea that this is part of "health care" encourages people who might have recovered or overcome their problems to prematurely exit life.
    83
  194. You should cover the Finnish UBI trial. (Nothing interesting happened expect that UBI increased men's fertility but not women's It was randomly assigned to individual people, not households. When the man received the UBI money, fertility increased, when the woman got the money, nothing happened).
    82
  195. This is 100% parenting. My youngest daughter was staying with her mother (we lived in a different state) and went to school barely more than a couple of days a week. She was obviously failing more than half of her classes. Her mother moved and my daughter had to move in with us. Since moving here, she has missed zero days that weren't due to being sick. She has friends, has a boyfriend, and is achieving. She got a 3.75 gpa for the last half of last year (she had a 1.6 previously). Parents need to make expectations clear and not can't when their child doesn't want to do it. And yes, a spanking is nothing compared to what society does when they fail to follow the rules (prison).
    81
  196. I really hope this party doesnā€™t get banned. They were coming in second in Berlin suburbs. Itā€™s clearly what the people want
    81
  197. It's so interesting and bizarre how progressive atheists side with Muslims and conservative atheists side with Christians. It's like the two sides are really just West vs Anti-West.
    81
  198. Maybe its because they have suddenly become the most protected of all protected classes, so their feedback mechanisms all get wrecked.
    80
  199. I'm amazed at the attention Destiny gets. He came to my attention when he was interviewed about his his "open marriage." Then the next time I heard about him was a news feed reporting that his wife left him for her boyfriend. While I find it interesting in the same way I find some car crashes interesting, he seems like a very broken person, who hit it big in pop culture social media and nothing more.
    80
  200. Appalachian meemaw gave me some excellent advice: you ain't ever really ready to have children no matter how much you prepare
    80
  201. Note regarding agriculture and intelligence: Level of intelligence required for farming 1-5 crops is actually much lower than intelligence level required to track, stalk, butcher, preserve game, and gather various edible plants. After the advent of agriculture, human cranium size(and therefore brain size) decreased by about 10%. Most anthropologists believe this is due to the poorer nutrition when eating a grain based vs and animal based diet. Perhaps poorer nutrition causing cognitive delays put a big selection pressure on genes that allow for more efficient use of oneā€™s brain; more IQ per cubic centimeter of gray matter.
    80
  202. He does excellent in debates because he relies on every underhanded tactic there is. Strawmen, rapid firing of multiple questions, ad-hom, answering questions with questions, and constantly interrupting. But, debates aren't the best way to reach the truth of a topic. They are more a fight of fast wit than logical correctness.
    79
  203. It appears to me that it is evident , that the key for increasing the fertility of a group, is for the group to have a positive self-image of itself.
    79
  204. The fact that you carry your baby with you everywhere endears y'all to me, because I respect parents that love their babies that much. Otherwise, y'all are fucking dorks. But the fact that y'all love y'alls baby that much shows that y'all are fundamentally good people.
    79
  205. As an Asian, we were taught to love our jobs. We were drilled to honor our jobs and works more than childrens. Because of that now my job is assisting troubled parents teaching their unruly kids. Oh and because everyone is underpaid while the rich evades taxes and corrupting our funds, I don't get minimum wage either. That's why I practice to be freelance, our government scammed us a lot so we feel right at home in the free market.
    79
  206. This game gives us the inner workings of their psyche. Itā€™s recoiling so see their wildest desires manifest within this game
    79
  207. If i were a juror on his trial, I would vote not guilty.
    79
  208. My family has always been heavily into the environmentalist movement. I stopped caring about global warming as soon as I realised nuclear power any other technology that actually solves the problem and isn't "live like a peasant" was off the table.
    79
  209. Democrats are playing high school level games.
    78
  210. Also, the largest group of Muslims live in Indonesia, where many of the English speaking Gen Z are already captured by the Urban Mono culture, and their fertility rate is rapidly slowing down.
    78
  211. The pronatalist community is underestimating how antinatalist feminism ripens too and how much itā€™s spreading. I saw a tweet with over 110K likes from a feminist celebrating Koreaā€™s collapsing birth rate. They seem to now think civilizations should go extinct to stop misogyny (I saw another tweet with 10k likes from a Korean woman saying just that)
    77
  212. ā€œReport to the breeding pensā€ LMAOOOO this is a CRAZY thumbnail
    77
  213. I remember first seeing Scott on Timcast and how he was doing the cleanup work in California and that made me an instant fan of his. Then, I remember him starting the mail-in activism for Republicans and I was even more amazed by him. He is a genuinely Goodman and I respect him. I hope I can meet him one day
    77
  214. Her: I am not like other people! Also her: *commits the most typical unoriginal shooting that copies past shooters *
    77
  215. Whenever Simone interrupts Malcolm he looks really frustrated and starts doing this rapid blinking thing. I just find it funny. Of course if Simone didn't interrupt there is a good chance we would just have an hour of Malcome talking to himself šŸ¤£
    77
  216. Malcolm looks and behaves like Neilā€™s Patrick Harrisā€™s scientist character capturing the brain bug to torture for science
    76
  217. 23:36 - Malcolm stopped everything to tell Simone she's a great mom. Allow me to stop and do the same. You're doing a great job, Simone! (oh, and I'm loving the energy this episode in terms of South Park edits)
    76
  218. Wow, I wasn't expecting this! LETS GOOO LEAFLIT!!!
    75
  219. This is a legendary crossover
    75
  220. We finally got an actual American in office!!!
    75
  221. My novel idea for crime reduction : eliminate protective details for politicians. If the mayor of NYC or Chicago had to go about their daily business without a constant armed police escort they would be far more inclined to make a safer city.
    74
  222. The "clothing" kink isn't crossdressing or it would say that. That's lower on the list Clothing means dressing their female partner in lingerie or sexy clothes It's probably the most innocent
    72
  223. It is becoming increasingly difficult to answer the question "what are you listening to?" when asked at work and i kind of love it...
    72
  224. Malcom is not alone in finding strip clubs disgusting. Its the idea that a woman i am interested in would be performing for other men that i find abhorrant.
    72
  225. My face: I a have very swollen lymph nodes (or maybe a localized infection) from a bad fever causing painful swelling across my face (the entire family has been bedridden for almost a week). Think of it like having pimples half the size of golf balls across your face. But not an excuse to skip an episode! (Note to those worried. The doctor also thought it might be mumps but given that today it has gone down lik5 50% I don't think so.) https://discord.com/invite/EGFRjwwS92
    72
  226. "Warning: You cannot send any more likes to members of your own race. You must send 25 more likes to non-white matches to continue"
    71
  227. Sees 47 minutes...Malcolm, did you ask 13 minutes worth of Warhammer Lore questions and have to edit it out?
    71
  228. She's a good starting point for people that are just starting to notice. My wife likes her and Amala Ekpunabi. Most people aren't capable of jumping right into content like yours. No matter how valid your points are they stress test way to many preconceived notions, and it makes people uncomfortable. Gotta boil the frog
    71
  229. I was pursuing an engineering degree back in the 1900's, but life happened. When I returned to school, I asked the local community college what degree I was closest to to reset. I was told I had EVERY credit for an Associates, except one. My English class didn't qualify because it didn't include a 3 page writing assignment. The class I DID take had a 10 page one, which isn't the equivalent. So, to finish my associates, I needed to take SIX enrollment mandatory classes before I would be eligible for my 1 baby English class. I took 2 of the required classes... intro to computers and some other drivel. It was subject matter i was ACTIVELY TEACHING in my career. I said to heck with this and left the process. So here I am making 200k+ per year (very +) and only showing a high school degree. As a hobby, I teach small business practices and serve on boards of town governance and within the business community. It would be fun to put some letters after my name, but I prefer to serve as a point of humiliation for my credentialed friends that failed in the free enterprise. Bragging about their supposed IQ while being to dumb to calculate their negative ROI from attending the institutions..
    71
  230. Malcolm is talking about furries again...
    71
  231. Simone: Look at meā€¦ I am the Malcolm now
    71
  232. Malcom: "Man this is so cool, this is the first podcast where the guest talks more than me!" //sidenote: no shit, it's Moldbug Simone: //giggles// "That's how it's SUPPOSED to be, Malcom!" haha
    71
  233. I do some work in habitat restoration, and I think you're mistaken about a lot here, but I agree that environmentalists are kind of awful. They seem preoccupied with all the wrong things. Being a conservative in this line of work is often difficult.
    71
  234. If Trump doesnā€™t deport more than Biden let in, we lost.
    70
  235. Even a lot of conservative women today don't display many good behaviors. I know this is off topic but finding good loyal family oriented women like Simon has become so difficult. I'm not black pilled enough to think it's impossible, but it's sad that it's so difficult to find something so historically basic. (Not to suggest Simone is basic)
    70
  236. We're gonna find out that everybody coupling up in high school is the optimum solution. Anime tends to be unintentionally right.
    70
  237. Regarding the "why aren't people buying it?" question, I think all three answers provided are corrrect, meaning both of Malcolm's, and Simone's. Considering Malcolm (dis)missed Simone's point, I'll try to steelman it here. There are the kind of people who are "woke" in the same way there are christians who never pick up a bible. They conform to the ruling religion, but they aren't interested in the theology. As such, it becomes much the same as why you have the US having a majority of christians, yet christian games fail. Because people aren't interested in a "christian product". They might be interested in preventing anti-christian products, but they won't actually want a christian product. Another key point, relevant for the true believers of wokeism, is that woke products are painful. They're not fun, they're not pleasant. And as such, I think someone who is constantly running an inquisition against their "friends" and either have their scorn, or worse, their approval and watchful eye, will have enough pain in their lives that playing something to reinforce it is just extra agony.
    70
  238. Imagine a society where a teenager's every mistake will reflect badly on YOU. Even if the kid does ok You'll be showered with SHAME. There has to be a better way to cultivate competitiveness and excellence without making it a parent deathmatch.
    69
  239. It's so interesting that Rome already tried most of the "solutions" people are proposing for our current problems and they all failed. Thanks Rome, we can learn from you!
    69

  242. My husband came from a more affluent area than I. I went to the most dangerous school in my area. It was in a very drug infested project. There were very few drinking parties and no drug overdoses in my school. My husband lost many classmates to drinking and drugs and many of them are still alcoholics to this day. My theory is that the poor students were creating more self-efficacy by having to survive violence, harassment by pimps and being around crack addicts so they valued their life more because it took so much just to survive. We were playing the same game at a higher difficulty rating so our wins meant more to us. The suburban kids were stuck in the tutorial of the game because their families kept them from any danger and they were constantly trying to kill themselves with risky behaviors that we found foreign out of boredom.

Now this is a topic i have always been fascinated byšŸ˜²šŸ˜¢ As a Nigerian, the issues with black Americans does intrigue me, especially considering how much better and stable and developed the US is compared to Africa. Even more strange is the fact that many African immigrants (mainly legal) in the USA tend to do better socioeconomically.

They also said they no longer pay for A1C tests for anyone under 35 without a pre existing diabetes diagnosis even if that person has symptoms. How are you supposed to get the diagnosis if you canā€™t get the test? Plus, insulin resistance is the root cause of most chronic disease in the US. That test and proper counseling could save the insurance company billions while also saving lives and enhancing quality of life. I donā€™t stand by justice without due process, but it is hard to feel sorry for the guy.

  259. 40:05 Malcom charitably suggests that the reason trans identified males are sexually aggressive towards women is because 'they learned they had to be aggressive as males, and then once they transitioned they thought women who resist are transphobic'. I disagree with this explanation because it blames rape-culture and social programming - its a blank slate argument. It ignores the natural tendency to sexual aggression males have, even ones who identify as women. What we are really seeing is men who are already sexually aggressive feel that they now have licence now they are seen as 'women'. It also is a framework by which trans-identified males can blame women who reject them for being prejudiced and bigoted, which gives them a social and moral power of coersion against female resistance. Trans identification in heteosexual males is often about increasing your sexual access, removing rules imposed on your sexuality, and evading defense mechanisms of women. Read 'Pronouns are Rohypnol'

I bopped my child's nose, told her "no biting," and ignored her for literally 5-10 seconds (I was counting, that wasn't fun for either of us) when she went through the biting phase, it worked great even with a 12 month old. I suggested it to a struggling parent online and got criticized like I had been proud of beating my child even though it never hurt a bit. I adore having my kids around and they're easy to live with because no means no. I know parents like the critics and it really doesn't seem to get any easier, they're eternal toddlers testing boundaries that haven't been erected. Edited for clarity

  299. What confuses me is the idea that without the insurance company approving of a treatment, a person cannot receive the treatment. How can that be, when completely uninsured people receive treatment without any payment by anybody? As I understand it, hospitals treat people first, then they send a bill. They go after the deepest pocket they can get, whether it is the insurance company, the government for an indigent person or the wealthier relatives of a poor person who are guilted into paying the bill. The reason medical fees are so high is because they are not geared to the marketplace of the people actually receiving the treatment. The sky is the limit when you just go for the deepest pocket.

It's so strange.. I miss seeing kids very much. And hearing kids. I remember how was our new neighbour apologizing that we may hear crying from her place, since her little boy was teething. I couldn't explain to her how happy I am to hear him giggle and babble, night crying was the smallest price. The lack of kids seems just.. dark and sinister. When we moved into our apartment complex 15y ago and saw playground behind, completely full of kids, I honestly rolled my eyes, knowing there will never be silence. Last five years we got the silence. And it's horrible.

  308. I think you guys are over complicating things. If the Wachowski effect is real, it probably has nothing to do with gender and female vs male brain types and is far more simple: it's brain damage. Decreased brain function is seen with things as simple as too few vitamins, imbalanced hormones, or a bad physical injury. Is it not plausible that injecting people with these toxic chemicals, unnatural hormones, and chopping off body parts puts the brain in a state of shock and damage? Studies would have to be done, but I would wager that a man who has undergone this "change" has more in common, brainwise, with drug users, severe car accident victims, or people undergoing long term illness treatment than women.

  310. The key distinction is between organic and inorganic worldviews, not state-enforced versus non-state-enforced. Organic worldviews, supported by the state, market, and culture at all societal levels, thrive (e.g., medieval Catholicism), while inorganic ones, upheld solely by the state, are unsustainable (e.g., Soviet communism). The problem with Iran is not that Islam is integrated into the state, itā€™s that itā€™s only integrated in the state.

  327. God, I wish the government would help with fertility medicine - and I'm generally not someone who wants the government to help with much. Mary Harrington in a recent interview talked about how feminism changed from having "care" to "freedom" as the driving force, and it really shows in all policy around reproduction. For instance, my fertility medicine specialist wanted me to keep having miscarriages before trying medical interventions. When I informed her that, knowing what i know about my body, this was a moral issue for me (basically choosing to put my babies to death for no reason) she acted like i had two heads. It was somehow morally worse to consider my "clumps of cells" as babies, because of the ideological implication, than it was to insist that a woman to through the physical and emotional pain of miscarriage without even trying interventions. Honestly, at that point, i believe that this trained fertility doctor would have rather that someone like me never became a mom. Jokes on her, I found a lovely Catholic clinic in Colombia, took my embryos on a plane, and had my baby last year.

  330. To me this video really illustrates the problem of Mohammed being not only a religious leader, but also the ruler of a state. Because Mohammed essentially founded a nation, he also had to lay down endless rules on government and every aspect of life, and it's pretty unsurprising that 7th century Arabian perceptions on how to efficiently run a state couldn't really stand the test of time. The Ottomans are a perfect example of it. They were extremely powerful at first, but in the 20th century they felt like this out of place elephant transplanted through time just waiting for a nudge to have their empire implode.
    56
  331. It's a tough one. On the one hand having lots of highly skilled people coming into the country is beneficial to the country as a whole. But it makes it harder for native citizens, when to become a surgeon, or an engineer, or a physicist, you're now competing with the best candidates from all over the world instead of just those within your country. Arguably the harm to the social fabric offsets some of the benefit of having more talented people contributing to your economy. At some point the priority has to be to develop talent in house.

  332. You both are missing alot about Kamala Harris... She was born in California but raised in Canada and came back to the U.S. for college. She lacks the 'American experience' and black people know this... furthermore, being half Jamaican doesn't mean you are black at all. Black American people know this as well. That's why she can only speak about American people in vague platitudes because she was raised Canadian and believes in having 'subjects' - hence abusing her power as prosecutor in SF throwing black parents in jail over truancy laws.

  341. I didn't understand much about traditional mechanics before either, until I was with what is now my wife. My sister, for example, couldn't understand why she obey me in almost everything; it seemed inconceivable to her that a man could say something and that she would do it almost no question asked. She even said it was something like a rug. So I asked my (girlfriend at the time) wife, why do you listen to me when I tell you some things? And she told me something fundamental, "Because I chose you, I know that you read a lot, you inform yourself, you are sensible and we have an almost identical scale of values,also you have never hurt me or abused me." And that's where I understood where all this "obeying your husband" comes from, it's not obedience, it's that women authentically admire their husbands, and by admiring them they respect and take into great consideration what they may say. That says much more about women's partner selection than men's. I'm not saying that men can't admire their wives, but if you are the sex that does not have the privilege of the passive role of courtship you cannot be picky, that is why men in general terms do not ask much of women to enter a relationship. (Or at least not much in relation to the demands of the average woman). Most men standard is be atractive fisicaly to me and have a decent personality that is compatible with my values... no much more...

Having been asked to play Santa Claus several times by a social group, I broke down and bought a good quality suit/beard etc. Thinking it would be fun for the kids, I offered to make an appearance in costume at the school. Here's where it gets funny; the parents association doing the event declined, on the basis that they were trying to keep it 'secular'. I'm sure older Millennials and Gen X remember christian groups pushing 'The Reason For the Season' and trying to eliminate Santa iconography in favor of religious imagery. Schools have slid so far left that even Santa Claus isn't allowed in a 'winter holiday' event.
    53
  349. The thing I'm trying to investigate more is their funding of religion critical or anti-religious institutions, networked through various charities. Finding out that Sunstone (a long standing anti-mormon magazine...less so these days I guess) was being funded by federal tax dollars did not help my acid reflux. I am still going over the data (haven't had a lot of time lately), but jus the suggestion that Federally funded grants were going to these types of groups is very troubling. This is just the first institution to be audited with released information, what else could these institutions be doing! It is all just a grift. The whole of the system is a grift, making people pay into things that are actively against their interest.

  363. Love the bravery of saying that neutering this specific breed is a moral imperative. To add; This breed is used in organized crime to inexpensively gain control over neighborhoods and rarely is there effective police / legal remedy. Walking is an important and healthy human activity and in too many US locations this comes with risk specific to that breed.

  365. There are many conservatives who don't understand that the best way to combat "bad" culture is not by banning it, but by managing it while promoting "good" culture. This is taught in the Bible itself, when it talks about forgiving the enemy and loving him. What is demonstrated in this attitude is not approval, but rather the demonstration of a higher act that can often bring a real change of attitude in your enemy, this is the best way and opportunity to give him a slap with the glove. Society behaves and acts culturally through incentives, and exaggerated reprimand only generates a spirit of rebellion and stubbornness, so the best way to combat this is to manage, reallocate the resources that these activities can generate and promote an alternative to them .

Joe Rogan is the chance for men to sit at the cool kids table. They get to spend 3 hours in the middle of a conversation between comedians or martial artist.

  378. Every time I read Reddit posts about hardship where someone is asking for advice, the common response is always to recommend therapy immediately for themselves and their children. It's often phrased as, "You need to get into therapy as soon as possible; this is really serious." However, when I read about the problems they're facing, I often think, "This could be easily resolved if both of you just stopped being selfish or made a few simple changes.ā€

Such genuine loving people do not look for everyone else to conform to their personal styles and sense of taste. The Grumpy Saint is still a Saint. The perpetually happy Saint is also still a Saint . The Phonie Saint just is Phonie.

  387. I am not American but I suspect that one reason why some black and Latino men are moving towards the Republican Party is that they work in trades ( electrician, carpenter, etc) and there is a lot of money to be made these days in that kind of jobs , given the shortfall in houses ( high demand, low supply) . So, if you are making money as a house carpenter,, plumber etc you will not like high taxes, and illegal immigrants .

  391. The reason why the highly religious would reject this is pretty obvious. To me, what is more interesting is why "progressives" would reject this. I don't really think they are hypocritical, just evil. My two cents: The reason why progressives don't want to accept this view, such as that guy you showed in the video is because of the centrality of rebellion and anti-authoritarianism in their meta-narratives. It isn't JUST the hedonism, with these people rejecting hedonistic pleasure as central focus of their life. To them, having any "non-straight" sexuality means you are part of an oppressed group, who society is maliciously trying to coerce into a rigid and oppressive framework. The role of this person then, is to act in a way conducive towards collective liberation, by "living out their truth". They have to actively reject the system, and live in "counter-cultural" way (hence, blue hair, dysfunctional sexual lives, etc.). In this case, any "non-straight" man who engages in a normal marriage is a class traitor, going against the interests of the collective and reinforcing the oppressive social norms meant to control them. Your personal freedom is not relevant at all, it is you class freedom that matters. To "live authentically" is to live in rebellion against the system, and all actions that go along with the system are definitionally "inauthentic". This also is why practically everything promoted by the urban monoculture is so dysfunctional, an oppressive system will want good worker drones, and doing the total opposite of everything is wants will simply lead to total personal dysfunction. And yes, this is a major aspect of why progressivism is totalitarian.
    48
  392. you probably left out the most important parts being: 1. cousin marriage (to fight against the inheritance laws) leads to really bad genetics(in certain towns in Britain over 70% of Pakistani children are from cousin marriages) 2. slavery is really bad for advancing economies and leads to much more stagnant heirarhcal clan based socites (even the us south is poor) 3. corruption and family connection over meritoracry(not limited to Islam but common in the 3rd and 2nd world) 4. Most importantly: the quran cannot change at all. so all Muslim beliefs are the exact same as 1400 years ago. this is why there is a lot of cope about strict version of islam but its not strict version is the normal version its just that normal was liennt 1400 years ago but now is really strict.

    48
  397. I think a more famous example is Batman and his "no kill" rule. Yes, he gets to keep his morals and his metaphorical hands clean. In the meantime, the Joker, or Twoface, or Killer-Croc or some other highly dangerous and very murderous individual escapes again and goes on to potentially kill more innocents directly because Batman refuses to acknowledge these are individuals who can't and frequently refuse to change. The Killing Joke is a favorite Batman comic of mine, where no matter how hard the Joker tries to prove that he can make Gordon become as mad as him, it doesn't work AND it leaves it on a cliff hanger with Batman and Joker sharing a laugh on a rooftop....with the implication that Batman finally does what he should've done so long ago.

  399. Asmongold is going hard team Trump at the moment, but he's not marrying his identity to being a MAGA/trumpist. So Asmon is basically saying that he'll criticise what he finds objectionable, but at the moment he is mostly finding absolute wins and the TDS sufferers can get bendt. Asmon hasn't decided to take a side and commit to it, but he has stopped holding back on showing what he means about things. He will stake positions that lots of people find objectionable and defend them against randoms in his chat, some times even pissing off the majority of his chat. SFO however....... Is a weasel of such proportions you'd think he once read a compilation of wyrmtongue characters in fiction and decided that this was his grand ambition in life. I think the only thing that has stopped him from having actually violated someone is that he's such a spineless worm that he can't dare to actually take the risk. He is carrying water for the democrats as if it's his life's purpose, and after having carried 1000 liters for them, he hands a small cup to the republicans and says "see, I'm a centrist". Asmongold who has been streaming deportation ASMR and laughing and applauding it is unironically more centrist than SFO, even if Asmon will say he's team Trump but he's not gonna agree with everything, while SFO claims to be "neutral" and "a centrist" yet he will die on any anthill the democrats/wokies deem sacred.

  404. 39:10 As a Nigerian, i am genuinely shocked that this is the reality in a country like the UKand much of Western and Central Europe šŸ˜¢ Even here, with all our problems and social issues, it's unfathomable. We have insecurity but no one is ever going to say that boko haram has a right to kidnap and terrorize people. So why a developed and first world country like the UK, allows these gro*ming gangs to do such horrible things to children is baffling to me.
    48
  405. Gotta stop at 24:10 for a second: Simone: Clothing? Malcolm (as though it were obvious): Clothing means cross-dressing! Me: That was not obvious! (I assumed it was similar or the same as roleplay - sexy maid outfit type stuff)
    48
  406. yes, people who pursue goals purely to aggrandize their own ego and sense of self worth are immoral and worthless for human society. i'm sure what Malcom bases his lifes goals on has NOTHING to do with the need to stoke his own sense of having value in the world and his feeling of being a SUPER IMPORTANT person, nope, not at all.

  410. A physical first edition of Action Comics #1 that introduced Superman can sell for millions of dollars, even though you can get the content inside in reprints for much less. You can't end the scarcity that leads to that sales price with copies and reproductions, and it's something that people will pay a lot of money for. It will also be impossible to eliminate the scarcity in Real Estate, which is all about location and the limitations of sharing locations.
    47
  411. My earliest memory is when I became self-aware, perhaps like SkyNet, I was less than 3 years old and I was throwing a tantrum because my parents wouldn't take me with them to The Hungry i comedy club in San Francisco, where we lived. I didn't know what a comedy club was, but I was certain I didn't want to miss out. I remember my parents both looking at me with the saddest looks on their faces that I'd ever seen, which made me feel bad, and I became conscious of my tantrum behavior, and I felt the strange new sensation of embarrassment. It was at that moment that I regained my 3 year old composure and went and watched tv with my babysitter, and the episode was never mentioned again, though I have always remembered it.
    47

  416. According to Stephen Shaw itā€™s not true that women are having fewer kids in the US. Women have gone from something like 2.35 to 2.6 kids. Whatā€™s different now is weā€™ve gone from 5% of women being childless to about 40%. So the overall birth rate is below replacement, but women who do have kids are above replacement.

  420. There is a very good reasons it seems like some people are still speaking about society as if we're still in the '80s. That's because so many people in charge of institutions are much older than they used to be. They think the world still operates the way it used to, and they still watch MSM which gives the illusion that the world still has the same problems and processes that it used to. The gerontocracy is killing us.

  422. Yeah her physical appearance isn't plagued with flaws, but she obviously looks dead inside; that's why people typically didn't want to be around her.
    46
  423. Itā€™s both culture and housing/cost of living. High housing costs may not in the short run directly cause fewer births, but high housings costs in the long-run can change the culture around age of marriage, thus reducing births.
    46
  424. I've actually been thinking about how violence could effect mate selection and the knock on effect on both cultural and even biological dimorphism. In more violent cultures there will be fewer men because the men die fighting. This creates a skewed sex ratio with a larger pool of women competing for a smaller pool of men. This will tend to make women behave the way men would like them to behave and accept social roles men would like them to accept. I think that over time it would even make women look more the way men would like them to look. But why would this make a society more egalitarian? Because historically unequal societies were unequal in favor of women. Historically women got relative safety and comfort while men got conscripted to die whenever the king wanted a new province. We only think women had it worse because of the historical revision that women really wanted POWER and not safety and comfort, even though safety and comfort is what almost every person prioritizes when given the chance.

  425. EA sucks, and has been sucking for a long time. I mean, have you SEEN Dragon Age Veilguard?

  426. 18:00 I think this is a major theory of mind issue on the right. Leftist/lateralised brains generally don't think in the way the right/compartmentalised logic brains do. Life is much less stressful when you realise that for most people social truth is always more important than objective truth, and no amount of rationalisation will change that. It's a hardware issue.
    46
  427. My low effort parenting tip: give the kids a sense of unity as a team and send them on missions (I call them missions rather than tasks or chores). By this point I can just yell, "Child Squad Assemble!" and all three kids come running eager to know what mission they have been summoned for! This provides them bonding as a team, delegation of tasks based on ability, leadership experience for the eldest, and gets them to do tasks I need done which makes life easier for me!

  428. One household task that I, as a man, insist on doing is grocery shopping. I can be in and out of Costco in 30 minutes and I wind up spending a whole lot less than my wife does. I have it down to a science. My wife could spend days in a Target.

  435. I really dislike emotionally and morally weak people. It turns my stomach. Not physically weak or those who lack skills in certain areas. Iā€™m talking about actual selfish cowards. If we were at war, they would be the first to go because they pose a serious threat to good people. Weak people, when confronted with danger will give your position away with their crying and begging. Weak people, if captured will betray you to save their own skin. Weak people will never sacrifice themselves for anything or anyone because they only believe in themselves. When in danger, weak people out of fear, can be easily brought with money, threats of freedom or violence.
    45
  436. I was hoping you would cover this topic in an episode. I recently realized, while talking to a lot of my female friends, that most of them donā€™t have a strong aversion to having children, but they are terrified of being pregnant. The same applies to my fiancĆ©e. She never wanted kids, but after discussing it with her, she agreed to have four if we use surrogacy because sheā€™s absolutely terrified and disgusted by the idea of being pregnant. Would you consider doing an episode in the future on why so many women fear pregnancy and how to overcome it?

  441. I once worked with a state governmental department of labor for a time. They only go an email address in 2018. They also need people to come in to fill out application for apprenticeships, where the person would request one and then the desk worker would fill it out, and wouldn't tell the person when it was done so they would have to periodically call to see when it was done. They later moved to the system of letting the person applying fill it out themselves and then the desk worker would simply check it over instead. Absolutely revolutionary idea.... for bureaucrats.
    44
  442. I've been schizoposting about dragons re: this phenomenon for years now. Dragons used to be these huge tyrannical hoarders, canibals and kidnappers, but now they're your pets, you ride them, there's dragon boyfriend erotica, the dragon is just misunderstood it's the humans who are evil (I'm thinking about that recent Netflix film...) Down with the degeneracy, make dragons great again! Simone is totally right near the end, we wear things because we think they're cute, and because of what other girls think, I can't really recall anyone outright dressing for a man. Even in older books, Jane Austen for example, it's always "This shawl is so lovely!" or "I hope Lady So-And-So likes my dress!" or "Ugh that colour makes her look choleric..." Men can't even reliably tell if we have make up on, if there is such a thing as "dressing for men" it's enforced by the female social hierarchy.

  444. I had a golden retriever that was bred for hunting. We trained him as a service dog. He would point, definitely not something we taught him, purely instinctual. If a pit bull is a weapon then the owner should face the same repercussions as someone who allowed their infant to play with a gun.

  445. Nuclear Power: BUILD BABY BUILD. Almost zero CO2, but certainly the lowest of any electrical source. If that concerns you. It can produce abundant, cheap electrical power with the smallest environmental footprint of any power source. It doesn't kill birds and whales, like windmills do, or blanket thousands of acres of land in solar panels, and it can supply electricity 24/7/365, even when the wind isn't blowing or the Sun isn't shining, for all the electric cars you can want.
    44
  446. I have injury-induced idiopathic scoliosis which began worsening (not supposed to happen) in my 20s; pregnancy is the only thing that could improve it and completely eradicate my pain, which is due to muscle tension (Relaxin, a very potent muscle relaxant released in pregnancy, is a miracle omg - I was pain free even at only 5wks along after being essentially bedridden prior).

  449. I have been pointing out the history of the word progressive for years. So glad someone else is pointing this out, but I will add that fascists saw themselves as ā€œprogressiveā€ too. Political progressivism is at its base the belief that the government has the right and responsibility to define what the society it governs should be. In this way, progressivism is actually diametrically opposed to liberal democracy, which is why you should NEVER call a Democrat a liberal; they are progressive, just different shades of progressive. Representative democracy in theory should be the society defining its government, progressivism is the government defining its society. These two notions cannot coexist. This is why fact that we are a constitutional republic is a critical distinction.
    43
  450. I told my lefty Mexican female friend (who only dated white guys) that Hispanics would be considered white by the time we were old because the level of intermarriage was following the same trajectory as those of other Southern and Eastern European immigrants. She was pretty mad about that, but she isn't having kids so...
    43
  451. Great crossover! Fertility rates in LatAm are really collapsing, especially in urban areas. In Argentina the European population is bound to disappear. It used to be 80% of the country and now itā€™s about 50%. Fertility in the city of Buenos Aires is roughly at 0.9 right now. The fertility rates of Uruguay, Chile and Southern Brazil (which is the most prosperous part of the country) are really low.
    43
  452. Gothel's use of the magical power from her daughter's hair to maintain her own youth symbolizes the desire of controlling mothers: by keeping the child in a state of eternal youth and dependence, the mother preserves her own sense of vitality and purpose, clinging to motherhood as a way to feel young herself.

  456. Clothing fetishes do not refer to cross-dressing. They refer to specific articles of clothing that people find attractive. Stockings, high heels, a maid outfit, a sexy nurse costume, literally just browse the selection of inappropriately sexy Halloween costumes and that is probably included under that umbrella. This also includes partially clothed sex.

  458. The more middle class you are the more you worry about all kinds of things. First off, risk of losing your job is greater. Middle class people are paying house, cars, student loans, etc, so they feel that they canā€™t bring a kid. They also worry about giving their kids a perfect childhood. I always hear this ā€œhow can I bring a child into this world and not be able to give them everything they wantā€. Kids donā€™t need that. I was raised poor and I had a great childhood. In fact it was the rich kids that were dead inside because they found no joy in the small things. When my family finally started getting money and I got all the toys and sweets, I enjoyed them less. Kids just need food, clothes, roof and attention. Which a poor two parent household can afford by trying.
    43
  459. I am not familiar with Korean culture but many elements remind me of my own upbringing. The Jewish community in the USSR was totally concentrated in large cities as a result of the second world war- the towns they lived were destroyed by the Germans and those that escaped concentrated in the large cities. There was hyper-focus on educating the kids so that they could enter the prestigious institutions despite discrimination (and avoid the draft). There was the same issue of living space and affording basics. Also, like in Korea, religion was totally eradicated. As a result of this the fertility rate which was barely above 2 before the war collapsed to sub-replacement in early 50ies and below 1 in the 80ies (I'm an only child of an only child personally). When the USSR collapsed the age pyramid was inversed with median age of 48. The community had a 40% population crash between the 1949 and 1989. The thing is that after the collapse of that system and emigration the same people had eventually higher fertility. The 1st generation had fertility of 1.5 and the so called 1.5 generation (those that were below 15 during the collapse, a very small cohort but still) had 2.1 .

  462. I have not seen that video, i watched like 2 videos a few years ago and thought 'he's way to political but has a unique take on a couple of old things' but... good lordy he's gone so far off the wall. You know, horror used to be for everyone. it was the cool place that all outsiders could go into. that hasn't actually changed, its just there are a few insane people like this guy

  463. Jordan Peterson had written that when a dominant lobster losses a battle its brain basically melts. Look it up, but the point is I think everything they are saying is just the defeat speaking. Like if i had a liberal friend and they start saying racist things. Once they come back to there senses i would just be like, "did you get it all out, good. Now lets play some xbox."

  466. The boyfriend got the message and document before, but he was busy and didn't check the messages until after it all went down. He was an online boyfriend. They had never met in person.
    42
  467. Social media exposed me to healthy people who were capable of actually rising through a meritocratic hierarchy. In my life before that I was surrounded by losers.
    42
  468. It's funny how some people who grew up poor are motivated by the goal of reaching financial freedom. While some rich kids struggle to find meaning.

  471. It can simultaneously be the case that there is usually something a victim could have done to reduce the likelihood of being a victim and that perpetrators remain free agents regardless of what the victim was doing and are therefore still culpable for any harm done to their victims.

  472. I think youā€™re the only one that walked away from Barbie realizing the present day doesnā€™t have a Patriarchy. They walked away thinking the gynocentric Barbie World is the goal feminism must achieve.

  476. Iā€™ll just be interested in seeing how much of this they can actually get done over the next 4 years. Promises are great but we will find out if they hold water.

  477. When Henry Kissinger was Secretary of State, he came to the conclusion that whenever he wanted a policy recommendation from his staff, he was always given three options: A) an option that results in total capitulation to the Soviet Union B) an option that results in global thermonuclear war C) and the policy the staff wanted to pursue šŸ˜‚

  478. 1. The world needs changing. Its in a shitty place. 2. This takes time and dedicated effort. Building friendship networks is a full time hobby. 3. Time socializing to masterbate some "friendship instinct" is waste of time when I would always rather be talking to my wife.

  479. My wife did 10 years in the Army, I call her my warrior woman, she rolls her eyes.

  480. One of Simone's most amazing observations in this episode was "we've had many friends who have cut us out of their lives simply because our ideas do not align with theirs." I've realized that most of my friends are ill-equipped to understand the amazing realizations the Collins offer. Those people will make fun of the Collins glasses and then go back to their cute dog videos or Sports programs

  481. So happy you made a video with him

  482. I taught in Las Vegas and the richest suburban schools in Connecticut-lots to say but I will summarize with this: we live in one of the communities and my ivy-league wife and myself home school. (Keep your children out of those top schools.) The top schools have the $ to cover up the problems. In one school the kids went to the high school over the weekend and trashed the place - leaving one student passed out. The superintendent called in all the custodians and said no one leaves until this place looks like it never happened.

  485. I used to work in a gay bar in the early 2000s, and my regulars were mostly 40+ - meaning they were mostly survivors of the AIDS era. The saying was that the survivors were all "Closeted, boring, or lucky". Almost half of them had ex wives, were the gay version of the Revenge of the Nerds cast, or just somehow thread the needle and never got infected. Of those that survived, only the "lucky" groups was still defining themselves by sex. The rest were oriented around maintaining health relationships, albeit with same-sex individuals. Unfortunately this didn't really impact the community, and did not instill a permanent change to the gay community's internal cultures. If anything, it doubled down.
    41
  486. lived in Busan, South Korea for 5 years. engaged to a Korean man. needless to say... I'm early 30s now and he will be joining me in Upper Midwest USA where we will start our family. Malcom is 100% right about the crazy social issues in Korea. I literally could NOT stand it. I could NOT stand the disrespect I felt towards "blue collared workers" there... coming from Michigan it made noooo sense and was almost the opposite of how I was raised haha. like um... electricians and snow plow drivers and cleaners are a million times better and more useful than some office waste of space pushing unnecessary paperwork and drinking too much Maxim insta-coffee, oh and online shopping but "pretending to be working so hard" doing overtime??? lol. I started having culture shock breakdowns where I'd purposely make myself look ugly and mess up my hair right next to people fixing their hair with their brand name shit on hahahahaha. if you are a strange, nonconformist American... you will slowly go insane there if you spend too long and try to settle... trust me. you can adapt some but you will never feel right. lol. things do seem very strange and cult-like there... probably why cults are so popular in general there too hahaha. chaebols also used to do creepy "mass games" like you see in North Korea too... like where everyone in the company has to do the same movements/dances and hold up cards and stuff. just go search for it. and the test obsession, and rote memorization is education... lack of creativity in the class. really didn't like it compared to my American style education. if this crazy competitive, power structure, shit ever went away in Korea... it would be SO AMAZING. the food, the culture other than the hierarchal obsession, the cool cafes and third space ideas in cities, the conveniences they figured out perfectly in their infrastructure... literally love it. also... pro tip: don't follow friendly young Koreans that speak English to you and promise you a "cultural experience" if they approach you in Seoul. they are from a cult, and you should tell them to screw off lmao.

  487. The data on abuse shows that in almost all cases of reported romantic abuse, the reported abuse is bi-directional. Abuse is terrible, however one who has a history of romantic abusive relationships is likely to be abusive themselves. The signs are always there and denying they exist is coping with your ability to see or ignore what's in front of you.

  488. You should tell this to Abigail Shrier. She wrote a book about gender disphoria in women being a social contagion. Which makes sense because so is anorexia.

  495. "Pronatalism," the acknowledgement of the importance of a task that only women can do, necessarily acknowledges the importance of women by extension. How can that possibly be anti woman?!??
    40
  496. Seeing how succesful catholics and jews have been in obtaining position of power while making up a minority percent of the population as a whole really reinforces the idea that someone should focus on building a strong culture. Quality over quantity.
    40
  497. For God's sake, what have these people been told.
    40
  498. 10:05 The Joker is literally less wasteful with money than most Western governments. I'm not even joking, just look at all the "art" projects municipalities waste money on in the Netherlands and in the Philippines. Burning money is literally less wasteful because the lower money supply would cause mild deflation, these "art" projects are actively a thorn in the eye and might cause negative mental and physical health due to the disgust one would feel viewing them whenever you pass them. šŸ¤¢

  502. Back in the '90s when public space surveillance cameras were spreading, many heralded it that it would cause people to act better. I thought the opposite. Society worked, with shame, etc., in polite ignorance. Cameras wouldn't make people act better to avoid condemnation but within a generation, young people just wouldn't care if they were seen naked on a camera or engaged in activities formerly shamed. And here we are. If you can't hide how you act, there is no real incentive to hide how you act. And then why not just do more.

  503. Atheist (2012) -> Red Pill (2014) -> Non-denominational Protestant (2016) -> Eastern Orthodox (2018) I remember all of what Malcom is talking about.

  504. Honestly sending kids to public school seems like a bit of a gamble here. I can respect his reasons, but he shouldn't underestimate how effective the system is in converting people into secularism.
    39
  505. Everyone needs to read about William Marshal. Served multiple English kings. Mistreated by King John but because of his known loyalty to the crown above the man, King John pushed for him to be regent and protect his son when he died because his son was only 9. As regent, William squashed a rebellion, drive out the French and reinstituted Magna Carta to provide stability while the young king became of age. Complete alpha. Was loyal to an ideal, not a man.

    39
  510. 50:04 that's how corporate America operates across the board. I just spent two weeks trying to dump ATT after 15 years because they refused to be reasonable and work with me on a problem THEY caused. Insurance of any type is the worst of all because you're paying them, often without a choice, for them to MAYBE do what you've been paying them to do. All of it should be illegal. Cell phone providers, Insurance, grocery stores, everything. The market can't regulate when monopolistic cabals operate in a crony capitalist framework. We are living in a modern gilded age. We should be acting accordingly.
    39
  511. Trump isnā€™t trimming fat so much as sharpening the stick, but we should all cheer.
    39
  512. Fun fact: Roman emperor Augustus was a regretful parent, despite encouraging others to have kids. He called his 6 kids his ā€œ3 boils and 3 ulcersā€, partially due to treason. On his deathbed, he said ā€œif only I had never married, or died childlessā€

  515. It's not plagiarism. It cultist behavior. Rote memorization. Punishment for any deviation. They see nothing wrong with it since it is the established truth. It's their truth. It's your truth, even if you are internalizing the 'ism' and denying it.

  517. I looove ALL domestic tasks including cleaning. But men should do plumbing & renovation. I love gardening - men should mow though, and cut trees. Traditional gender roles FTW.

  518. The irony is that anyone who hears this message and THEN starts on some mission to change the world is probably doomed for dating. It's like quantum mechanics once you look at the system the behavior disentangles

  522. LOL clicked for "Starship Troopers", stayed for the in-depth analysis of the socio-political commentary of the movie
    38
  523. Mass attacker culture is a rising threat. A large amount of attackers in last five years have been networking in these communities online, whether by lurking in forums on the subject or by forming things such as discord groups. School and law enforcement are uninterested in examining it in more detail, perhaps because of the lack of a coherent political ideology beyond complete nihilism.
    38
  524. Were you in a Blackrock commercial too, Malcolm?
    38
  525. Given how the "Big Business + Social Theocracy Alliance" of the 70's-90's created a prolific and long-lasting counter-culture directly opposed to all of it's core values I can't help but feel the Urban Monoculture is creating a similar future reaction.
    38
  526. Malcolm, most if not all of the companies are only rolling back the DEI departments. They are not getting rid of DEI at all. See Kirsche and Savvy's coverage of Bridge for details
    38
  527. This made me think of all the homeless women I have seen that collect bags, for the sake of having bags. The bags are empty, unless they contain other bags. And they steal grocery carts to hold all the bags. I've never noticed homeless men doing it. Just really old homeless women. Edit: that is to say that their brains are all breaking along a specific pathway. It seems to be gender specific, and maladaptive.
    38
  528. Very good reviews on our community here were I live. I come from a very mixed family and have left the Democratic Party completely. Yes the insults have crossed a line with many of us.šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ’ÆšŸ’Æ

  529. Canada is trillions in debt, and under Trudeau billions went out the back door in slush funds, corruption scandals, inefficiencies, overpriced projects that failed anyway... I think in the end the greatest contribution by my man Milei in Argentina is he's inspiring countries to take a hard look at their spending. With luck, the 2020s will be known as "the great audit".
    37
  530. Former sesonal Park Ranger, here; I've got a lot of great things to say about the National Parks but it has become a refuge for far left ideologues to the point where a thorough house cleaning is long past due.

  531. Malcolm needs to stop interrupting Simone so much. We want to hear her thoughts too.
    37
  532. Simone's grin in the thumbnail will haunt my dreams tonight
    37
  533. What's crazy is the pronoun use makes EVERYTHING so confusing. It's like learning a foreign language, but not being fluent, and trying to follow what native speakers are talking about. I live in rural area outside of a metro area of roughly 400k people. So not a huge city, but still fairly large. I also travel quite a lot. I rarely see flamboyant Gs and masculine Ls. I have never seen a T in the wild. So either all the Ts I've crossed paths with are passing, or Ts are unique unicorns of the Alphabet tribe limited to certain cities or regions.

  534. My parents at 24: time to raise kids Me at 24: time to watch another episode of BasedCamp about parenting. I will raise my cats right

  535. Small world moment. The same "reporter" who wrote the hit piece on Big Balls, is the same who investigated Raw Egg Nationalist (and various others). She has been through various institutions.
    37
  536. I live in a 1950s post war boom house in Atlanta. They are awful, and they were literally cookie cutter built both sides of the street all the way through the neighborhood. Itā€™s 915 square feet and we have three kids. Thing is those houses were built to be part of a community structure that weā€™ve now dismantled. Park down the street, church at one end, and even an elementary school. Kids used to be outside CONSTANTLY. They now canā€™t do that. We had a mother in Georgia not too far from me arrested because she let her son walk to a friends house. So weā€™re just cooped up in a 900 square foot house. Absolutely that inhibits additional children.
    37
  537. Star Wars can be saved but it won't be done. Its really simple too. They have to declare all the recent stuff is non-canon. Then produce content based on the extended universe novels.
    37
  538. People donā€™t appreciate what they havenā€™t earned. I see this again and again, as someone who has been overly generous.
    37
  539. The urban libs are commiting civilisational self-deletion, they already live in an abundance utopia, and can have all pleasures that they could wish, akin to mouse utopia. It is the lower working classes and rural people, who must have common sense and and be close to reality, that are still reproducing, I think. The question is, how do we avoid this cycle of "mouse dystopia". Or maybe the nihilism is objectively true, and we have to work from that?
    37
  540. Higher income people have kids for the same reason they have an expensive house/car. Their kids are possessions, not humans, and these external "objects of success" are there so they can have bragging rights as to who's kid gets the best grades/is best in sports, etc. Too many parents live vicariously thru their kids achievements to make up for their failures. Everything with higher income kids is about status and external validation so that kid had better make them look good....or else...he then becomes the black sheep and scapegoat.
    37
  541. Scott Presler embodies EVERYTHING grassroots! šŸ’–
    37
  542. When i first learned of this attack my first thought (not counting moral judgements) was that Malcolm's vision of the future is coming sooner than I expected. Malcolm suggeated in much earlier videos that the future will consist of small outposts of technophiles who will dominate technophobic groups (at least in contrast with eachother). One side in this conflict can no longer trust "basic" technology such as pagers. The future is coming at us fast.
    37
  543. "The more informed you are, the more you align with your genetically pre-coded ideology" is an idea I had myself, cool to see a paper about it!
    37
  544. For liberals, whether Christian or not, politics ARE their religion. They live for this world. Pious Christians live for the world to come. As for retreating to a rural area, yes, a few do (not that easy since the jobs are mostly in the cities), but that is because the left has had an unchallengeable iron grip on the major institutions for the last hundred years. Withdrawal is a preservationist strategy. Retreat now so you can fight when conditions become more favorable. Early Christianity spread in the cities because rural pagans were less receptive to new cults, but it did not spread as political activists. They made converts, got married more often, and had more children, and possibly lower child mortality.
    37
  545. Free marketing. People have already made up their minds, this will convince no one of anything, it's just free advertisement.

  546. The kids climbing over Malcolm is sooooo wholesome. šŸ˜

  547. 1:02:01 regarding this everyone should look into the connection between communism and pedophelia. They always either try to lower the age of consent or abolish it.
    36
  548. So Iā€˜ve been a homeschooler for six years. From what Iā€™ve noticed, most homeschooling parents prioritize good parenting over teaching. ā€œEducationā€ might only take a few hours a day, but things like manners, health habits, wholesome interests/hobbies, quality time, chores, nurturing, big conversations, relationships, etc. take priority. Schools do things in reverse: school/educational skills take priority over everything else. Even home time revolves around preparing and recovering from school.
    36
  549. Scott Pressler has been working tirelessly during last years. He should be involved in teaching Republicans how to motivate people to register and go out to vote. Great job Scott! šŸ‘šŸ‘ā¤ļø

  552. Podcast topic suggestion: Creating a default life path for the next generation that is designed to be procreative. - How do we plan kids-teens-youngadults lifepaths to promote early marriage, and early reprodcution? - how do we ensure teens meet enough people, and have enough early experiences so that they can choose the right person to commit to? Seasonal church dances twice a year from age 13 onwards? Encourage bringing a 'date' to these dances, to make kids practise choosing, asking, and having mini relationships with no stakes? - What ages would we formally suggest marriage to future generations? 20? 22? 25? 28? - How do we promote involved parenting (especially from mothers) without this overriding the personal and intellectual development of the women involved? e.g. make it culturally normal for women to have kids BEFORE college, and then go to college while they have baby and toddler age children?
    36
  553. I'm training to be a physician to actually take care of this kind of stuff, after being tired of seeing how bereft of humanity the current "healthcare" system is. There are practices and practitioners out there that do care, but the ass-covering and paycheck collecting is becoming the majority. Not an MD yet, but in process.

  555. I'm going to start checking my home and devices for bugging technology because this is like the fourth time in two months that you've released a pod episode that directly addresses some topic that is centrally relevant to the most important concern of my daily life at that precise moment.

  560. Someone once told me that when a YouTube video title asks a question, the answer is always "no"
    36
  561. I agree with Simone. The solution is support for those families who want to have kids and there needs to be cultural change where parenthood is seen as something positive, and that doesn't have to be religious. Chechia took that approach and it is working. I encourage you to check it out.
    36

    36
  563. I think you really hit on something with the large family thing. I have 16 year olds and every time they tell me about a classmate that's "queer" I ask three questions and the answers are almost always yes...are their parents divorced, are they an only child/the only one from their parents relationship, do they describe themselves as introverted/social anxious/autistic. It's painfully predictable. (And every single one has been a girl.)
    36
  564. For the brief few months, I had my kid in high school. He came home and told me about furies. He said they were kids that actually acted like animals in social settings. Here you have defined furies as people that dress up in costumes. Iā€™m only 10 minutes in. I think thereā€™s a big difference. No one really is bothered by cosplaying animals. The really weird shit, the stuff that I didnā€™t want my kids to be around, were the children of the fatherless households. No one grows up with a father who doesnā€™t at some point get annoyed by a child acting like animal. So to me all of this is downstream of children growing up without a father. The father at some point should say ā€œstop being weird ,stop acting like an idiot, donā€™t be a dumbassā€. Also, when I was in high school in the 80s, the we will accept everyone subculture where the freaks or pot smokers. I guess one of the unintended consequences of normalization of pot smoking is that another ā€œacceptingā€ subculture had to be created.

  576. Simone's take on BPD made me laugh out loud.

  577. I've been comparing this movement to lobotomies for years. I feel vindicated but also disappointed knowing there will just be a new one in a few years.

  578. I grew up in the Netherlands, raised by a single mother who didnā€™t earn much, but I never felt poor. Although she often claimed she was "bad" with money, she was incredibly skilled at managing it without overspending. For example, she shopped at multiple grocery stores with different lists, always knowing which stores had the best prices and quality. She never just bought the cheapest option, but rather sought the best value for money. My mother would mentally calculate the total cost of our groceries while shopping, so she always knew the bill before we reached the checkout. She also had a keen eye for catching outdated or incorrect prices and could memorize the prices of our regular items, immediately noticing any increases. We rarely ate out, preferring to cook meals that would last for several days. What I find particularly interesting is how she often compared our life to her own childhood, which was even more financially challenging. Her family, like many working-class families at the time, could only afford meat twice a week. They made meatballs with lots of breadcrumbs, cooked large amounts of gravy, and rationed portions to make it last the entire week. People often forget that compared to most people in history we live a life of luxury.

  579. Pacific Islander, Catholic, massive families, 3-4 generations, 5-11 kids per family. We donā€™t call our family ā€œfriendsā€, not even cousins. Itā€™s assumed that weā€™re in good relations by default. Even if thereā€™s trouble between people in the family, weā€™re family, so there are ways weā€™d avoid fighting and there are lines weā€™d never cross. Weā€™d still take a bullet for each other, family is above everything. Friends would be a step BELOW cousins, cousins being almost equal with siblings however. Friends come over all the time and connects us with other communities. More communities = more exposure = more opportunity. Huge families are so fun, Iā€™m blessed to be part of one. Start networking.

  580. Japan seems to be a serious victim of the entertaining ourselves to death. They had arcades, manga, anime, work etc long before the rest of the world had such levels of distraction.

  581. When heard about his past trying to sign up with the Ukraine military my first thought was massive delusions of grandeur. This man seems like just a political obsessed loner in some twisted modern quixotic journey. It's hard to call him mentally fit, but sure, he is not some medded up shooter-profiled young person (outside of a violent criminal record which I'm not fully informed on the details).

  582. Keep fighting the good fight, and raising based kids.

  583. We got Leaflit on Based Camp before GTA 6.

  584. Simone nailed it with her characterization of NPR and how they pay lip service to impartiality. They will present both opinions but will provide so much additional ā€œcontextā€ that itā€™s little more than editorializing. Thereā€™s so many examples of this it hard to settle on just one to characterize the behavior but give them a listen and itā€™s fairly obvious.

  589. My dad climbed up to the base(d) camp in Everest two years ago during the low-season and avoided the issues with traffic jams and whatnot. He was a lifelong mountain climber (He did search and rescue for the Air Force) so that was like a "bucket list" thingie for him
    34
  590. 21:00 Never underestimate the civilizing influence of cousins and other older kids who are used to guiding younger siblings. Modern parents can exhaust themselves trying to teach all these social lessons to their kids that they would otherwise be learning from other kids, who also learned these lessons from other kids. Thanks for recommending Hannahā€™s Children, itā€™s great. Iā€™m about halfway through.

  594. I was making this same argument to a (very wealthy) "progressive". Now, I'm a former homeless heroin addict with 6 years clean who now runs marathons at a competitive level, so the topic of self-improvement is something which I love to discuss. But I see how the same mindset that kept me in active heroin addiction is often used to make excuses for all manner of bad behaviors, but unlike heroin addiction, these behaviors are encouraged for society. If it weren't for God and a belief in the human capacity for real progress, I'd be dead. In fact I was on life support after I tried overdosing because my girlfriend had just died in bed next to me. Long story short, I understand metnal illness, trauma and depression are terrible, but it's on us to fix ourselves and assist others; we shouldn't be encouraging toxicity by calling it "stunning and brave" God bless

    33
  599. Bingo: The problem is the bureaucrats aren't philanthropist, they're not spending their own money, but behaved as such. They are disciples of an ideology that has the trappings of a religion, and they're using the publics money, many of whom don't agree with the tenets of this new secular religion, and then they use that money to promote the tenets of their religion to other people around the world, who don't like it either. I'm sure the disciple-bureaucrats BELIEVE this a good thing to do. They BELIEVE they're doing their "god's" work and evangelizing to the world. But most people don't like their religion or their god. If they were spending their own money, fine. We have freedom of religion in the US, but you can't use my tax dollars to do it.

  602. It almost seems like thereā€™s a genetic switch where old guys start taking up gardening, as they would have historically been less able to war, build, hew wood, etc. In this way, they continue to be a producer in their small communities or tribes.

  603. This is not the team-up I was expecting. Wonderful to see.
    33
  604. I remember when political correctness was an eye-rolling joke. In the last 8-10 years it metastasized into the "woke" movement (hate that name, i wish something else had stuck) that reminds me far too much of books I've read about Cultural Revolution China. I don't think the democrats will kick out the woke because largely they still think it's a good thing, furthermore, they love having this cudgel in their back pocket. I have been and will always be a fan of the American constitution, but the woke movement has given me a greater appreciation of it as I have watched people in the UK get arrested for posts, the EU announce that misinformation is their biggest problem, and Canada going after protestors and other insanity. I was never more horrified than when Kamala and other Dems all declared that the worst problems in America are misinformation and referred to the 1st amendment as a problem. There were so many reasons the Dems lost me, but that was the big one. I will always vote to defend our most brilliant document.
    33
  605. Malcolm's description of religious people who ignore laws they don't like and their children abandoned the religion describes reform Judaism
    33
  606. In the UK a lot of parents will act this way because if they act otherwise to their children, they WILL be arrested. Advocates would ham up extreme cases where an already existing law was broken to put pressure on further changes to the law as if they did not already go far enough.
    33
  607. I wonder if this is why there are fewer monks and priests. Those folks stopped being drawn to obsessing over religion and obsess about these other things instead
    33
  608. This is a matter of scale, as you noticed. Who burns the most books? Libraries. Who kills the most animals? Animal shelters. Its easy to have huge numbers when you make the problem horrific, the issue is the ratios. Obama had similar things going on where publicly he was super pro immigrant but by nature of that it makes him look bad he was also trying to inefficiently bail water while refusing to address why there was so much water to begin with and the media was complicit in covering for him every step of the way. Similarly he bombed the ME the most, but the media covered for him and he was basically just throwing tantrums that his foreign policy resulted in nothing, so throwing more bombs without care and uselessly didn't fix anything. Trump comes in with a plan, executes the plan and gets results. Currently Trump is making a big show of getting rid of obvious bad guys, I would be fine with him deporting less if he's getting the really bad actors and at the same time his mere stance on the issue "predeports" more than a million people because they don't show up at all now.

    33
  612. 17:20 Simone makes interesting points about psychological symmetry between trans, trains, anorexia and pregnancy. Orienting that obsessional tendency towards pregnancy is a lot more healthy from a sociological perspective, however. And I'm glad Simone did.
    33
  613. 32:37 Simoneā€™s correct, Nietzsche was very much so not an incel; the reason he went insane was that his case of syphilis attacked his central nervous system.
    33
  614. Hysterectomy is very different from tubal ligation. It causes lifelong issues, loss of sexual satisfaction, hormonal issues, early menopause, early calcium deficiency, etc. Years ago they performed these blindly to women without having full attention and aftercare for the ramifications. I see we are going back to that, again blindly.
    32
  615. Really need to see more of these "New Right" youtubers interacting with the content you two put out!

  616. Feminist mothers, mostly single ones, always feels like they have to protect their sons from the fathers(that are actually involved). If Dad is firm, he is a bully, and then they have to spend a bunch of time, emotionally supporting the boy because Dad always hurts his feelings trying to push him to be manly.

  621. My grandfather was born in NYC and he had eleven brothers and sisters. They could do this it was normal for families to simply release children over the age of six into the streets of New York and expect them to return. My grandfather is actually in an old New York Times article about him and his friends all between the ages 7-10 going fishing alone. The angle of the article was not that is was dangerous, it was that it was wholesome. Now kids must be either supervised or on your property, so either have a lot of property or never expect to have more than one kid. We can either have high population densities or safetyism, not both!

  623. I've said it before. I won't own a pit. Everyone I know who has them fit the stereotype of wanting to look like a badass. The combat vets I know tend to own dogs like Brittish bulls, Mastiffs, and some even Great Danes. The latter tend to eat a lot, but are huge softies.

  626. The teen years are the self absorption years. For decades I've typically observed that children who had normal relations with their parents will typically turn on their parents and have contempt for their parents during their teens.

  627. The Collins' first coverage of 4B was mostly derision and schadenfreude. But this episode goes from belly laughs for conservatives to really deep sociological intellectual observations.
    32
  628. The Kobayashi Maru isn't a test of skill or ingenuity, it's a test of character in the face of failure. As the Starship Troopers novel describes a situation facing certain death: "I hope you'll go down swinging--and shouting orders to somebody, whether they make sense or not." Also: "A cap trooper isnā€™t necessarily expected to stay alive (dying is part of his trade)... but they care a lot about how you die. It has to be heads up, on the bounce, and still trying."

  650. Nick Offerman is like 2% "my type", but Ron Swanson gets me hot under the collar. That is a man with a plan. If they had married him to off anyone other than Xena they would have done him dirty. He is a shining example of calm, non-bonbastic confidence, nurturing and adult masculinity, and how to make an ok-looking man incredibly appealing through personality and mannerism alone.

  653. Penis-stealing paranoia is a recurring issue in West Africa. People end up arrested, even if the accuser is still attached to the missing member, even if the accused had no opportunity to perform the crime. But let's be real. Who are we, westerners to judge? Some of us go around claiming much worse...
    31
  654. 20:57 It's like trying to make fetch happen in Mean Girls. The Conservative Nerd is not catching on as the new conservative archetype, and it has no staying power. In real life, I know hardcore libertarians who go to anime and furry conventions, and except for their voting heuristics, they are extremely progressive, and one of them came out as trans since I met them, and their partner has been completely supportive. That does not scream conservative. It screams eccentric.
    31
  655. It is definitely and unambiguously the case that both Malcolm's religious language and Simone's non-religious language should be made available. The Malcolm's religious language will tend to appeal more to people with religious backgrounds and Simone's non-religious language will tend appeal more to people with atheistic backgrounds. The parallel reading of the two texts will facilitate the understanding of the language more foreign to the reader, the mutual understanding between religious leaning and atheist leaning groups, and the cooperation between those groups. Malcolm tends to be better at saying interesting things, while Simone tends to be better at rephrasing those things in ways that are less susceptible to misinterpretation. For example, on one occasion Malcolm said that he has a strong aversion to women with a high body count, then Simone clarified that he meant a sexual aversion, not a general aversion, and illustrated this with the example of Malcolm living in a brothel district in Korea. While this does suggest that Malcolm's statements would benefit from refinement by Simone, such refinement seems at least somewhat distinct from the "nuking out" of Malcolm's religious language, and I strongly reaffirm the initial sentence of this post. Malcolm's potentially misinterpretation religious language also invites the possibility of potentially fruitful elaboration on important religious topics in ways Simone's language would not. For instance Malcolm's use of the phrase "sons of man" invites elaboration on the relation between that and Jesus's referring to him self as "the son of man" as in John 9:35-37, it's relationship to Jesus also referring to himself as the son of god, and the further relationship between being the son of god and being the son of man, both in Jesus's case and in general. This further invites elaboration on the term "son of the devil" as in Acts 13:10. Please keep both languages, as each has a distinct value all it's own, and the parallel consumption of both languages has a distinct value all it's own. Please also address the hedonistic consumption of and engagement with interesting ideas such as those you present in lieu of doing obviously pragmatically more beneficial but less interesting and enjoyable labor.

  664. Two things left out of the slavery conversation are the reasons for "just" slavery. First they were not able to have large prison systems for property crimes. Second they had two options in war, slavery or death. In both cases slavery was an act of legal mercy that didn't necessarily prevent individual mercy as an individual act of grace and forgiveness. The law said "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" was a principle interpreted in various ways. The judge could just take an eye or a tooth. The rule prohibited taking more than an eye or tooth. The rule could allow substitution of anything valued as an eye or tooth. Slavery allowed a debt to be paid. Slavery allowed an enemy to live. The issue was the fair treatment of slaves, allowing slaves to live according to the Torah and "godly in Christ Jesus". Laws of slavery did not prevent mercy but were to prevent cruelty. Slavery laws contrary to the principle were unjust.

  668. Ok so I'm going to answer a few questions that came up having spent 7 years in Israel, while now in the U.S. Over the last twenty or so years, it has become more and more difficult to get a gun in Israel. Partly this is the government being more afraid of the occasional, "Wild Weed," (Jewish fanatic.) But mostly, it's a combination of complacency and an ever-expanding bureaucracy making it not worth the effort, paperwork, and long wait times. The day this massacre happened, the government reversed policy and issued 10,000 rifles, and this will doubtless result in a permanent change. Gun ownership is open carry only. Concealed carry is not allowed. They want any potential terrorist to see all the guns around and decide that his likelihood of success is so low as to not be worth it. You can get a gun if you are a former soldier, involved in security in any way, or if you have a job or residence in a dangerous area. It is reviewed by a committee before approval. The communities by Gaza were built in the 50's as border outposts back when the secular socialist movement that built the country was in it's prime. But as the secular Israeli society that created them aged and became more and more progressive in the modern sense, they lost a lot of their edge. Had this happened to a settlement in the West Bank, the terrorists would not have had nearly the success they did here. There was just a lot of complacency that the army, the intelligence services, and the local security teams had the problem covered. The Arabs have never carried out an attack this well-coordinated and clever before. All of the complacency came back to bite them in the most horrible way. As for Jews with guns, well, I think a lot of us are just better off than most and are able to live in places where personal security isn't an issue, and so have the luxury of being consumed by their progressive pieties. I'm a Modern Orthodox Jew living in the U.S. suburbs, my wife is more liberal than I. Even she just agreed we need to buy a gun in light of the security situation. I have been learning how to shoot and hopefully will have one soon. Me and A LOT my Jewish neighbors.

  672. 31:20 - Women have a bimodal distribution of sexual expression because historically they might be in one of two scenarios. I realised this exact same thing! The 'slave' archetype is literally a survival mechanism that is deeply encoded to be resorted to because in deep history many women had to survive like this, and play the part well enough that they would be kept. Its very dark. This is why I dislike discourse that makes light of BDSM - look at the evolutionary context, and you come to very dark places. The other side of the coin is that, of course, male sexuality is bi- or tri-modal. Being a husband to one, or few wives, being an incel, and being a warlord. The 'Master' sexual archetype is just as evolutionarily encoded, and at its core derives from a real desire to own, rape, and torture.

  673. My grandma speaking of when she was a girl kneading and baking bread, we did it because... "at a nickel a loaf it was too expensive to buy." This was during the times when the mint was at its peak and most relevant. Hence, yesterday's nickel was approximately today's $5.00 and is correspondingly irrelevant. Then as originally intended, a pocket jingling could make most common purchases and even attract a mugging. Hence why do we mint coins and at what cost? This is the kind of thing I think DOGE needs to reassess.

  679. For those who think that popular female romance novels (the ones that people actually choose to buy) have muscular men on them like they do in children's cartoons I would suggest you google image "top female romance books" or "top female romance books of 2024". This is actually not very common in the actual best sellers. As to why women seem so actively turned off by muscles despite being conceptually aroused by them I would assume this has to do with women associating them with being lower class - and given that class is the thing the really care about above all else - they ignore any pre-programmed biological attraction to them.

I really do hear ideas from you two that i just don't hear anywhere else. And as a China watcher/enthusiast, I never heard it put that way before. You all keep me coming back.

  686. Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore once told Deng Xiao Ping in 1978, just before China opened up....he said...if we, the poor, uneducated peasants of China can achieve what we have in Nanyang (Southern Seas), imagine what China can do with all your educated, smart mandarins who never left. ...Deng went back and opened up China the next year ...

  689. Absolutely. Not just a theory, but the only workable interpretation of the evidence. Why would you expect the same ideas to be developed almost simultaneously?
    29
  690. I think subconsciously warning girls about the potential for male violence in the world is the function of slasher films. There was a reason that tween girls slumber parties used to feature films like SCREAM, HALLOWEEN and THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE as a rite of passage.

  693. This video has been THE BEST video you guys have produced! I would love more content like this! The best comparable I could give to Simone's reaction towards the map is that of people who look at History and say "But so what?" This map is helpful in ways I cannot articulate partly because it's impact is not immediate. The people that will find this useful will know who they are when they watch it and the people who don't, wont see the point. I wish I had this map when I was a kid instead of stumbling over all the different points. In my scenario, I understood all of the points in my teens but didn't have a framework to map them onto, and if my children are anything like me then this video will be the golden key I was searching for in my youth! AWESOME CONTENT KEEP IT UP!

  695. So religious but not autistically so is the most successful. Makes sense.
    28
  696. 33:00 - This is why kids need two parents. You need a Malcolm whose instinct is to stand up to the teacher and defend his kid and you need a Simone who will help the kid figure out how to navigate that social world. Both are necessary and it's hard for one person to do both things simultaneously. It's kind of fun to watch that being negotiated.

  697. "You were progressive when I met you and capitulated to my view once it was brought to light" Yep.
    28
  698. I would say that until DEI became a thing, plagiarism was unacceptable in EVERY field and was a death knell for an academic caught doing it. We used to have a system that was based on merit so anyone who would copy someone else's work and pass it off as their own was basically just telling the world they had ZERO merit. The truly heinous thing about Claudia Gay's plagiarism was the fact that she stole from the brilliant Carol Swain to justify her position at Harvard when Dr. Swain had never been given the opportunity to serve in that position.

  701. I get that you support Israel in that you agree with their actions. However, donā€™t you think that as an American, American men and money should not be going to the region? As far as Iā€™m concerned, any kind of lobby on the behalf of Israel (regardless of its internal politics) is cuckolding.
    28
  702. It seems like not letting a child go unsupervised cooed is a very reasonable cutoff. Parents must make boundary decisions for children that take into consideration knowable risks and benefits of every aspect of the changing childhood independence to the extent permitted by practical necessity.

    28
  706. Committed to homeschooling my kids, assumed I'd be starting from scratch, this will be very helpful
    28
  707. I mean I do hear a lot of this talk like 'well we don't want unready young people to become parents' and I guess it must seem like a valid argument to some people. You need to realize that this argument assumes some second criteria of readiness besides physical maturity, and it assumes some way of fulfilling this criteria exists. With these assumptions it will appear to us that a 23yo may not be ready, and we will advise them to wait until this readiness criteria has been fulfilled. In fact parenthood is a developmental process and there is no way to shortcut it, you learn by developing in response to stimulus. parenthood is very stimulating in this way, deep changes in interests and motivations can occur almost instantly, manifesting sometimes timidly or hesitatingly but becoming firm over time

  708. I was close friends with a girl from old money. A few decades ago her family was household name and several universities have buildings that bear their name. Oh man, never in a million years would I marry her. She even said whoever marries her is set for life, but it wouldn't be worth it. Sweet girl but messed up.

  712. 36:30 Yes! I've seen this with Environmental charities. One I volunteered for was doing great practical work to benefit the environment (reseeding thousands of hectares, helping developers build in a way that increased wildlife and lowered maintenance costs of the buildings too) but we got pushed out of local events by a group of fundraiser charities that get high-schoolers to sell their merchandise to (mostly) school kids and do little other than complain in local news without giving concrete solutions and having lots of meetings with each other and local authorities about unsolvable issues) The charity I volunteered for was too busy working to do bake sells for the City's Environmental Day but our projects were far more interesting to the public, especially because they worked. When we started questioning the practicality of their Net Zero policies both the other charities and local authorities gave us the cold shoulder so publicity and funding became even harder to come by. Very sad and demoralising.

  715. My country Lithuania has longest paid maternity leave in the world - 24 months. Our fertility (TFR) in 2015 was 1.7 (one of the highest in EU) In 2023 decreased to staggering 1.17 (lowest in EU). Our country has crazy amount of benefits for families. Child benefits, free museums and venues for families, gifts from municipalities, free school meals, free childcare, free healthcare, free schools and universities ect. Not even talking that it's one of the safest countries in Europe and ranks pretty well in happiness scores. Nothing is working. What I hear from like 2/3 of people below 35... They want to travel the world more, live for themselves and have as little responsibilities as possible. Or just ā‚¬ā‚¬ā‚¬ā‚¬. Basically a cultural trend. There used to be huge peer pressure when everyone's your age is having kids, but it's not anymore. This week I am going to classmates birthday, there would be 6 couples in late 20's and early 30s and none of them have children. And they not even liberal or political. Crazy.
    27
  716. I got a chuckle. We call it "booping" and it redirects. There is also "Stand in the corner" and "Ok, now decide which toys you want me to bag up and hide OR you comply with cleaning them up..." They all work most of the time. I never believed in any form of corporal punishment, either spanking, booping, threatening the loss of toys, etc. when my eldest child was growing up. He was our only child for 10 years and his childhood, and our experience of parenting was very different compared to having 3 more boys back to back to back and now we're managing 2 toddlers and an infant and a teenager and the toddlers in particular require a lot of redirect when they're attempting to be outright destructive (out of curiosity or just playing too rough in some way) or obstinate. My toddlers do have meltdowns in public sometimes, they don't sit still much in church, they're very dynamic boys and we've bopped them in public with a stern "Stop that now." And I've seen people around us act all pearl-clutching about it, or a grocery person saying, "You should have ordered your grocery through Instacart". Yeah, you're childless, keep your mouth shut, please. We refuse to shove a screen in their faces to try to keep them "behaved" in public when they need to learn how to behave, period. So if they meltdown and have a tantrum, we handle it there and then and make expectations clear. I appreciated this video, shared with my husband.
    27
  717. Trump is making the same point he made about funding nato. If you care about nato, then spend the money. If you care about Gaza, then do something of value. So far, in the past century no Arab, Islamist country has done for Gaza anything of value. Maybe being in the hospitality business is a good path for Gaza.

  722. This reminds me of a lady who held up the line for the scramble before Timberline Ridge, a mountain in the Rockies I climbed a few summers ago. She was well over 200lbs and had no business on this hike (12-15 mi at with 5k ft elevation gain) much less begging everyone to push her up a 75ft sheer rockface since she could not physically do it. If you fall from this level 3 scramble you will fall down the valley and die so asking anyone to be behind you pushing would put their lives at risk. She just wanted an instagram picture and was willing to take everyone else down with her. After 45 minutes she finally gave up and cried on a rock and the rest of us who were fit enough did the scramble and summited late forcing us to be at high elevation during the time storms form. I don't get these people who just decide they can pay to get to a goal that requires real work and conditioning.

  729. My thoughts exactly... there is a risk "dying alone" or... discovering you don't have the desire, energy, moral motivation to raise your own kids...while you neglect the needs if your kids due to this lack of motivation...right now.... Those who want to have kids... should have kids...those who dont...shouldn't...and those who are unsure...should really consider the consequences of both before making their decision one way or another Have you guys had any opportunities to chat with Scott Galloway about this?
    27
  730. 23:07 Niacin. Nicotine and related molecules can be metabolized or used directly as Niacin. Schizophrenia was originally heavily associated with a niacin deficiency. If I had to speculate, the gene associated with schizophrenia likely has the net result of prioritizing niacin use outside the neural pathways and would be selected for during times of hardship because it conserves niacin for uses considered more critical to survival.

  732. as the eldest of 9 kids no one believes me when I say having lots of kids forces you to do things that are actually better for the kids.
    27
  733. "Parentification" is kind of like "trauma" in that the term has become ubiquitous and lost it's original meaning. It's not the teenager having to babysit because mom had to work the late shift, it's the 6 year old who has to make sandwiches because mom is strung out on the couch, or having to tiptoe around the unstable emotions of a narcissist.

  734. Can you make a dedicated Lab Leak episode? I thought that was very interesting. Is it still speculation? Is it confirmed? Will governments ever admit it? Will it change anything in biomedical research?

  735. Geez that psycho yelling at her bf let him dodge a bullet. But seriously her friends should ditch her, too. She is not ok, and I hope they don't think her behavior was either. And abortion at any stage is morally reprehensible. there is no actual legitimate argument to make it right.
    27
  736. I'm just here for the Falling Down references.
    27
  737. One of the things I think you guys should consider is we shouldnā€™t really be talking as much about the birth rate, but instead we should be considering the grandchild rates. You could be raised properly and have 5 kids, but totally mess up your own children to where you have 0 grandchildren. Or, more applicable, the single motherhood rates, I think, are a big cause of the birth rate drops because their kids donā€™t know how to form proper relationships to even have a child
    26
  738. 11:45 I think Simone is right here. They LOVE implying such motives on anyone speaking against the monoculture. It might be tactically smart to not acknowledge this, but that's what they're doing. We've seen all the Taylor Lorenz - style "journalists" who are just ideological crybullies. Of course, usually if you interrogate their logic, you'll find that their whole logic hinges on some insane racist assumptions similar to the Smithsonian "whiteness chart", such as when you describe pro-social traits, they will assume that these are traits exclusive to white people.
    26
  739. My hot take on nuclear disarmament is this: Soon we'll have automated drone-swarms which can wreak cataclysmic havoc in all sorts of elaborately targeted ways. And nuclear weapons will just become obsolete.
    26
  740. As someone who likes to pay attention to online black communities, I've noticed an extreme aversion to marriage and children among wealthy BM. Secondly, BW often times date down financially, even when they're middle-class.
    26
  741. I like the Pavlovian "I love you" when Simone mentions wrapping up. It's almost like you two are married or something.
    26
  742. The last 10 years it's hard not to notice how many shows and manga suddenly had pronatal and pro-family aspects, almost as if it were on purpose. It's a heroic effort about 20 years too late to change the demographic trajectory. And aimed at precisely the population least likely to successfully pair up and start a family. Korean soaps would today be a much better propaganda outlet due to the cross cultural penetration they've achieved.

  746. German here - it is bad, but it's not that bad, at least currently. The guy behind this ban, a CDU politician, lost his seat to a AfD politician and half of the seats in the parliament are first past the post while the other half is from a list from that party - but he is too far back on that list, so he won't be in the parliament in the next round. Other members of the CDU don't want this - their seats are mostly secure so they don't care as much.
    26
  747. another thing about Catholic confessions: the priest telling anyone else your sins, ever, for any reason, is banned, and he will get thrown out of the church if he does. There was a parish near my place growing up named after St. John Nepomucene, who was executed for not telling the king of Bohemia his wife's sins.
    26
  748. Hmm. It's honestly rather simple for me. I am a very simple person after all. I just had to ask myself, "Did he bring good value to the world?" Since the answer was "no," I don't feel bad about his death. For me, it's really that simple. This is a stranger that I did not know, so there are no connections, no memories shared, no obligations. So, the only thing I can go with is whether he was worthy of having life. Maybe it's because I loved watching Red Dwarf as a little kid and loved the "The Inquisitor" part. In his trial, this CEO would have failed right away. He could have done so much, and he instead focused on personal gain only.
    26
  749. I reject the premise at 0:30. The roles were not switched. OF women still guard eggsuality by gate keeping it behind a pay wall. Same as its always been. Just amplified by tech.

  750. I think Pugs should have been included in this conversation. Pugs don't kill other beings, but they are doomed to short lives of suffering serving no purpose.
    26
  751. This dude is awesome. I follow his stuff. He's a great, "lead from the Heart" counterpoint to your, "Lead with the head" Calvinist style. His "just have one kid sooner" thesis is also a perfect compliment to "elite groups have 10 test tube babies now!" lol. You should collaborate with him again.

  754. When I was in college, I was at a park, we were about to witness fifty kids beat each other up over something, in a group of five people, I immediately got out my phone and called 911, i was with somebody who audibly said, I actually don't know when it's appropriate to call 911...... other people surrounding us got their phones out to record the fight so they could post it on social media.....
    26
  755. This makes me think of how people will comment on a video in a way that shows they havenā€™t watched it. Or how sometimes the most vocal people on a topic know the least about it. Not in a ā€œdonā€™t know what you donā€™t knowā€ kind of way, but an ā€œI donā€™t want to know anything differentā€ kind of way

  757. 12:55 This is what I saw in college. I even used the word 'brand' to try to describe what I was seeing. This was 20+ years ago for me. I'm glad I'm not alone in seeing it for what it is.
    26
  758. As spectacle faced person I must say seeing three pairs of lens on one screen with such style I must say Kudos!

  759. Dude, you and your wife are officially the coolest couple and people on this planet! No lie. This is accurate. I don't think I could want anything more on this earth than to power down a few edibles and watch and listen to you two all night. Brilliant insights and convos. Exhilarating. You two are treasures, and that's not even saying much. Well done!!! And he's knocking back a Coors Lite while talking about some very complex things. Just when you thought Malcolm couldn't do anymore unexpected shit. It's gonna be a good night:) Edit: I'd really love to see some sort of discussion between Malcolm and Andrew Tate. Toss in Ben Shapiro and it would be like an auctioneer convention. Malcolm is the real Top G.

    25
  768. "malcolm and simone want people with certain genes to have more kids :( this is eugenics :(" kindness, pro-sociability, law-abidingness, good health are all substantially genetically influenced. Do you not think it be a good thing if those things became more common? do you have no preference for whether people with genes that predispose them to commit homicide and suffer from scizophrenia have more kids and those behaviours become more common in the future?
    25
  769. Simone is absolutely correct. Real world example: Monarchs are having problems because people are brining them (the eggs/caterpillars) in to raise them (to butterflies). It has caused a rise of diseases within the wider population. Ditto with the people who open the milkweed pods to help the monarchs, we are not deselecting the ones that fail to open. Which will make opening them more necessary over time.
    25
  770. What strikes me is that it's all extremely obvious when you look at the neurological explanation: Pain signals are avoidance signals. Stove is hot, hot is painful, I should NOT TOUCH the stove. Delayed punishment doesn't work because the state of the brain isn't in the context where you want the lesson to be learned. Imagine if instead of stove hurting today, it hurts tomorrow. So, suddenly while you're playing in the sandpit, you get massive pain in your hand, and the brain is overflooded with "DO NOT" signals, so the kid basically gets "DO NOT PLAY IN SANDPIT". Because that's the current state of the brain. If the kid is older, there can be a conscious response to it, but it too is very dependent on the current state of the brain. And this is also why punishment is so detrimental to learning, because if you punish someone for making mistakes, you're not imprinting "Do not make mistakes" into the brain, because that's impossible. You're imprinting "Do not attempt" or "Do not display your work". Negative feedback works by prohibiting behavior, positive by reinforcing behavior. Both are needed, both are severely misunderstood by many.

  774. Let me explain.As a Southeast Asian . During the European colonial period. Resistance continued from the natives.Make Europe bring in immigrants from China and India. To work in the company And plantations . Plantation land is often taken from the native population. When Europe was forced to leave.Factory and plantation processing is done by people who can do work (.That is his former employee). And all the assets ended up in hand Entrepreneur China and India . The most extreme example From these immigrant workers.is in the Malay Peninsula where the Malay population was only 40% of the population in 1960.In order to make the Malays the majority, the island of Singapore (the economic center of Malaysia at that time in 1965) was forced to become independent. So Malays gave their land to immigrants for free. Because it's impossible to ask them to go back to China, right? SingaporešŸ‡øšŸ‡¬ is siper rich and Malay in Indonesia šŸ‡®šŸ‡©and Malaysia šŸ‡²šŸ‡¾doesn't care." Ok, mereka bisa tinggal di sini"Ok, they can stay here"

  777. I regretted having a child for the first half a year of my baby's life. A lot of it was due to a hard beginning with a complicated pregnancy and many problems during birth. I was crying for no reason for the first month and my own emotions scared me. After that, what overwhelmed me was having to do things around the clock and how hard simple things became - like entering a shop with a baby because it was impossible to enter with a stroller and I couldn't carry my baby around, or just using a bathroom when I'm alone with a baby. Saying that, now my daughter is a toddler (21 months), and I'm extremely happy that she is here. I no longer have any regrets, but pregnancy and birth scare the shit out of me (way more than before).

  780. I can only see it as divine providence that in this election cycle we got to see what happened when the anti-gay, antisemitic, and racial nationalists all campaigned against Trump as hard as they could. We learned we do better by alienating them not by pandering to them. To any who want to say this was strategic to help Trump, the Leather Apron Club Video was released to an audience that almost entirely agreed with him (YouTube algo) right before election day (so not enough time for it to give solace to centrists). Also keep in mind his video held within it the implication that if Trump won in spite of this, then his platform of pro-normal gay had the mandate of the Republican base. (Which by the statistics it does.) As to the point I was making about Nick Fuentes being an IVF baby: In the world he wants to create he himself would never have come to exist, (nor would our children - thus why I am reminded to be so adamantly against it every time I hug them).

  784. I've never seen the issue with the non-credentialed giving financial advice. Anyone should be able to give financial advice. I fail to see its usefulness beyond being a form of gatekeeping. The idea that financial understanding can be credentialed in the first place is rather laughable given it's arguably a softer science than sociology or political science.

  789. 12:15 Malcolm misses here WHY the Appalachian people were so much more violent than the English people in the rest of the country, and that's because most of them were of Scottish descent. Most Hillbillies are Scottish and Highland Scottish people are violent for the same reason that Sicilians, Arabs, and the Irish were, this is because most of rural Scotland stayed a largely clan-based honour society. This is also why Sicilians and Napolitaneans formed large criminal organisations while other groups if Italians like the Lombards, Latins, Venetians, Tuscans, Etc. never managed to do so. This is why Chinese people were constantly fighting amongst each other, even in Indonesia or San Francisco. English culture is very different, in England you are an individual and you create an egalitarian nuclear family, you don't marry into someone's family nor do you bring shame to your family if you accept an insult. This is why Hillbillies get so violent when they feel like you've insulted their honour.

  790. Bi woman, married to a Chinese man, mixed kids, pro choice, and I still fucking LOVE trump! So does my husband and his family. I was democrat for years while he was a Republican. I didnā€™t switch him, he switched me.

  793. Years ago I witnessed the bear/man thought experiment play out in real life. I heard a woman hollering for help when I was trail cycling at a preserve. I rushed to her fearing she'd been snakebit or had an alligator clamped on her leg. Turned out she'd seen a bear and was terrified. I told her Florida bears are not at all aggressive and she'd be fine. She asked me to stay with her back to the trailhead, so despite my worry being alone with someone who'd shown a propensity for irrationality, I gave up my trail riding to walk her back to her car. ... A woman brought the bear vs. man thing up with me more recently and it enraged her when I said women say they prefer the bear, because they rarely go into the wild without men. I've been hiking, kayaking and trail cycling since the '80s. Only come across solo, or groups of, women in woodlands and bayous a handful of times. Too often, I had to rescue them in some way, like changing bicycle tubes since they neglected to bring spares, levers and pumps, and didn't know how to change tubes anyhow. Come across solo men, couples and mixed groups fairly regularly. Women can say they prefer the bear, but my hunch is if they come across one most will want a man nearby to help. Yes, I know there are women who are fully competent in the wild, and men who are completely incompetent in the wild.

  795. Year 1700. You said 17,000 around 2:33. I donā€™t care, but itā€™s to stop nitpickers from derailing and interesting question
    24
  796. The shepherd thing is dumb. Anyone who lives near sheep knows they are out in the winter. The "better" argument I heard was the shepherd was out at knight to help with lambing. That makes more sense. But you know what also makes sense? The shepherd was out because they still had to worry about wolves..

  801. As a European, I'm awfully grateful Vance has expressed a willingness to exert pressure on European institutions not to curb free speech and that Musk, who takes an active interest in the state of free speech in Europe, also has a foothold in the American administration. Our "cathedral" would like nothing better than to restrict the opinions permissible on social media to those they approve of, and Macron in particular has said he would like online anonymity to be lifted, so the prospect of official American support in the matter is very encouraging.
    24
  802. As a Swede I think this is amazing.
    24
  803. For additional context (though I'm guessing this is not news to Malcolm), the internet atheist vs fundies phenomenon first evolved out of the evolution versus creationism debate culminating in the battle over Intelligent Design theory being taught in schools. Another thing of note, much as it pains me to say it as someone who participated in these debates on the evolution/atheism side of things: We really pioneered the sort of snide, midwitty style of argumentation that remains a staple of the urban monoculture today. Much in the same way I've come to take religion more seriously over time, I've also become increasingly convinced that Behe and others' critiques of the standard Darwinian narrative were taken less seriously than they deserved. It's a topic I've been meaning to dig into more at some point.

  807. I've noticed i'm pulling further and further ahead of my peers who used to be intelligent, but have spent every day of their lives since high school on the internet or not working. Every time I speak to them I notice that I have a slightly greater edge on them than last time. Maybe that or it's all the medication they're taking because so many of these people are non functioning. On the alternative, my peers who since high school have worked, gone to college and use the internet in moderation are highly usually intelligent individuals.

  808. Giving free money to people with no financial literacy means they have more time to waste their money. Intrinsically motivated people with a different relationship to money would benefit from UBI, because they would keep working anyway and invest their money into something beneficial. Of course, these are the people that would be working, saving and investing anyway, so they don't need UBI (at the moment anyway).

    24
  812. There's a quote (I believe it's from Starship Troopers), speaking about escalation of force as it pertains to war that I think also applies here. (I don't recall the exact words offhand, so I'm paraphrasing.) "When a child misbehaves, do you cut off its head? No. Trying to win a war with nukes is like disciplining a child with an axe. The point of war isn't death, it's compliance. It's not about killing the enemy, it's about making him do what you want through the strategic application of force."
    24
  813. M: "Kids need punishment" (small pause) S: "Kids need boundaries" I fear the rule of Octavion the fierce less because he has such loving and tempering mother. I hope she never loses that side. It goes well with the cold rational autistic efficiency. Btw get Octavion into gardening, I bet he will ABSOLUTELY ANNIHILATE all the pests and weeds you don't want :DD
    24
  814. The "how would we murder each other" tangent was hilarious and also, somewhat unsettling, because Malcolm is either stupid, or he's pretending to be and keeping the real plan to himself.

  818. I need a house built in 1790s. Also Malcom was the one who got the better deal when he married Simone. Most guys would love to find a girl who is both autistic, loves nerd hobbies, and is intelligent just enough to listen to husband while not challenging the husband on every single point to where you intensionally create conflict.
    24
  819. Note: This is only the briefest touch on this subject for us and we only talked about one modality of fetish (disgust inverse fetishes) when in our book we have like 8 core categories of attraction. For example, vore is probably in the dominance submission category and and rule 34 is activating emotional connections. Will elaborate more in the future

  821. The problem with custom bespoke AI media that isn't really talked about is that it will lead to even more fragmentation of human interaction, we've already lost the proverbial discussions around the water cooler about whatever the hot media is because there are just so many more options out there than there used to be, if everyone is playing different custom games that will lead to even more escape into fantasy and less common points of interest for human interaction. The future is even more isolating and bleak.

  822. The federal government has always preferred to hire people nearly straight out of the college that are untainted and will be brought up thinking that bureaucracy is normal. Their experience is usually just one internship if they have any.
    24
  823. Veteran here, getting a Federal job with vet status isnt as easy as Malcolm presents. Yes you get additional points but the federal job site sucks and they post jobs they dont have budget to pay for. Its a lot easier to get a job as a govt contractor as a veteran. The USG literally pays defense contractors to hire vets.

    23
  828. Note about bipolar and diet: This is just showing that the genetic correlates to bipolar disorder is being selected against overtime, it does not mean that there was an increased prevalence of phenotypic bipolar disorder in the ancient past. Based on a tremendous amount of anthropological and physiological evidence, prior to the advent of agriculture, humans were eating a low carbohydrate diet with 70 to 100% of calories coming from animal products. Stone Age humans were likely in the state of ketogenic metabolism most of the time. The ketogenic metabolic state has been used for at least 100 years to treat epilepsy, and has shown promise recently for the treatment of bipolar disorder. Lamotrigine, one of the most commonly prescribed medicationā€™s for bipolar disorder, was originally used, and steel is used as a medication for epilepsy. My best guess is that once we moved from an animal-based to a grain based diet, that would have led to a fairly significant increase in the prevalence of bipolar disorder, which then would create the selection pressure now that the pathology has made itself manifest among a population.
    23
  829. The first thing I thought when you said that the mom gets sick and has to take to her bed for a week at a time on a frequent enough basis to warrant mentioning is that she possibly has some nutritional deficiencies that need to be fixed after so many kids. Not bad enough to end up in hospital in a deficiency disease, but bad enough to make her more susceptible to passing illness or exhaustion than normal. When my 5th baby was 6 months old, I crashed into the nutritional deficiency wall. I had been nursing and tandem nursing and nursing through pregnancies for 8 straight years at that point (ever since the birth of my oldest) and the depletion had finally caught up with me in an undeniable way. I have never done any of the dieting or exercise to get back into shape/lose weight between babies, so I have never calorie/food restricted. I also stopped working just before baby #4 when the lockdowns happened in 2020. So when I look at the number of kids she has had, the work of motherhood and a farm, the continued work that requires her to get back into shape quickly postpartum, I think there is a lot of extraordinary nutritional draw on her. The good news is that it took only a month of nutritional support (not targeted, just organ meat supplements + added vitamin C and D) to fix the problem. So, if she is just depleted, she could fix it very quickly. Either way, she definitely needs to investigate why she gets those bouts of exhaustion - that is not normal.

  830. Alas, Aella will have to suffice for this viewing of Simone & Malcolm, for no one can truly replace Simone, we must make do with what God has given us on this blessed day and beseech him for more SIMONE & Malcolm!

  831. "Wasn't Destiny the one who had porn on his computer that one time?" - no, that's literally all of us lol. You might be thinking about Vaush, who accidentally on-stream opened his folder of loli porn or horse porn. I don't quite remember, I just remember it being something considered socially unacceptable by most people (even these days).

  833. For housing there is a self-reinforcing cycle. The government here in the UK only builds 1-2 bed apartments because theyā€™re higher ROI and ā€žpeople are having fewer childrenā€œ. And then because there is absolutely no 3-5 bedroom apartments available, you only have two choices: move to Kent, buy a big house for 1 million+, but live isolated, car dependent, in an area where not much happens and only few high-paying jobs areā€¦ OR youā€™re in a 2br in the city, with access to jobs and leisure opportunities and your social network, but with no chance to upgrade to a family-sized apartment. So the world becomes split between people who have 0 or 1 child, living happily in London, and wonā€™t have more because it would mean leaving their neighborhood, friends and jobs. Or you move out and start over so you can have a larger family, but you sacrifice everything else. Itā€™s a really frustrating situation.

    23
  835. You are so right about the stay at home wife in a nuclear family of the 1900's being a historical outlier. Even in hunter gather cultures, you can see this stability vs ambition gap. Hunting is higher risk/reward activity and it's not always successful, where gathering is much more dependable. But because in those societies everybody contributed, relationships are more egalitarian than in agricultural societies. Also, as you said a lot of the "trad wife's" of past were upper middle class and above. I know all my female ancestors post slavery simply couldn't afford to live off of one income.
    23
  836. The ancient concept of virginity and purity were not just a concept of morality and spirituality. It truly was a DON'T GET THE WARTS concept.

    23
  838. as a member of an ineffective town republican town committee, we desperately need training tools to get things rolling. I'm more convinced that we need to find people with skillsets rather than pretend we can teach each other to have the necessary skillset. Finding the simple people like Scott that are amazing in operation. We pretend that position in society is what makes a good member of the team, but finding out Scott was a dog walker when he started his amazing work gives me hope that we can find the unleveraged talent and encourage them into success.. the skill is in finding and empowering those sorts of people.
    23
  839. I wish we could have a frank and open discussion regarding autogynephilia. As an affected person, I believe we do a disservice to both individuals suffering from gender dysphoria as well as wider society when we refused to discuss this topic due to political considerations.

  844. I'm not surprised people go up to Malcolm for punishing his kids in public. My oldest is hearing impared and will not wear hearing aids. In order for him to hear me, I have to yell. I don't know how many dirty looks or comments like "don't yell at your kid like that!" I've gotten over the last few years. And while this is not me, years ago I was in Walmart and I could hear this kid screaming and crying "I WANT IT!!" The mom was ignoring him, continuing to shop. The kid was in the cart, and was just clearly having a tantrum. My thoughts were "wow, respect to that mom not giving in!" Then a woman walks right up to the cart (essentially blocking the mom from getting to the handle), bends down and says very loudly to the child, "ARE YOU OK??" The mom responds with "he's fine, he just wants something he can't have." The AUDACITY of that woman to go up to a child clearly having a total tantrum and to act like he was being abused by being told no!!

  846. The Canada situation is pretty interesting, the rest of Canada is trying to tell Alberta, to sacrifice it's fossil fuel profits, but that's like 20% of Albertas profits. I really like how Alberta Representative said, we wouldn't be telling Ottawa to sacrifice their largest export, or telling another place to sacrifice theirs, why is everyone looking at Alberta like it's for the better good..
    23
  847. The way you just described finding AI is disconcerting. If we found it instead of creating it, that means we will never fully control it
    23
  848. I am a herd manager on a large dairy farm, this animal welfare stuff is an absolute joke. If you just look at the data the places where animals are treated the best are large modern professional farms They have extremely low rates of mortality morbidity and have objectively very high comfort levels. Farners make the most money when there animals live along time are healthy and very productive, the incentoves are aligned already. When I was back in my agricultural tech startup days I worked part-time on that animal welfare sort of hippie farm that never made any money was all donations because people felt bad for the animals and the mortality and morbidity rates at that farm were extraordinarily high I mean 10 times worse than large professional farms with people that actually know what they're doing I eventually quit because it was so bad for the animals because there's no one there that knew what they were doing and I couldn't change anything cuz it was just a part-time job but I wanted to do so I could be in a farm some of the time. These people never studied animal husbandry or worked on a farm they know nothing about it. If you want to feel bad for some animal you should feel bad for the animals in the wild that have really high morbidity mortality rates often get eaten alive or starved to death or die of disease animals on large farms are extremely well taken care of by and large
    23
  849. I particularly love the requirement that adults can opt-out of content manipulation, trigger warnings, content curation, & all of the ways social media administrators effect what I see. A large reason why I engage as little with social media as I do is that nonsense, as if I can't decide for myself what is true or not, what I want to read or watch, & am emotionally grounded enough to handle any content without getting "triggered" like a child. Being allowed to be an adult again is such a breath of fresh air after years of having child-guards forced on me because of the "modern audience"'s aversion to being challenged in any way.

  852. šŸ©· I feel seeeeen!!! I am one of those evil wholesome lesbians, married with an adorable baby and another em-baby getting implanted soon! I regularly thank my lucky stars that we missed the app years and got together much like you two did via a good old fashioned online dating website for actual lesbians. I have been binge listening and I'm glad you touched on this. Before my wife got pregnant I was researching lgbt parent groups to possibly join and immediately was turned off by the uber progressive messaging... I'm not exactly the best at groups (probably autistic as I'm sure the bulk of your fans are) but I feel much more at ease around some of the couples my wife connected with at her postpartum group then whatever tf these people are doing pushing climate change, drag queen story hour, blm, etc etc etc on their 2 year olds. Not only that, but the fact that most of these "queer" parent groups include parents of "lgbt kiddos" makes me deeply uncomfortable.

  859. I had a Australian shepherd in my 20s, my mother owned a daycare and I would go visit Mom there and my dog loved kids, kids loved her. But she did attempt to herd the children and it was hilarious. It was harmless and the kids enjoyed it, seeing it as running playful fun.
    22
  860. This summary is really good and balanced also your chemistry is balanced, the topic is timely and simple enough for the general public, i would suggest if you are sitting on options to increase distribution of a specific video to use it on this one, great job
    22
  861. Considering that nearly no culture before modernity allows polyamory in general and almost all allows some sort of polygyny, wouldn't this be evidence by itself that cuckolding isn't adaptive? One reason is that I think if it is trying to appear in any culture, men will be less invested in kids in general, and that will make such cultures more prone to disappear from the gene pool So, this will lead to patriarchy being more adaptive since then men can be expected to provide the best, and they do. Hence, patriarchies are adaptive polygyny gives some women easier access to wealth and high status men, so it will have faster selection for high status genes, and men will still have the inventive to provide

  872. One argument I'll make in defense of "expensive zippers over buttons" on military uniforms is that each of these serves a purpose. In certain instances zippers are absolutely necessary, and buttons will not be fit for purpose. This is why Cost-Benefit Analysis is so important. We can complain about the price of a fire engine, but if it's exactly what's needed at the lowest possible price, then any attempt to tighten the budget will inevitably remove necessary portions Yes, there are government programs that spend far more than they need to. But there are also people who are actually fiscally responsible and you should never punish the latter for the actions of the former. Doing so reduces overall quality
    22
  873. 20 minutes in and you described me so well. semi-reglious to athesist, strong believer in a strong woman but also became anti-femist, to anti-woke. I knew Trump should win because of his speach and his willingness to be "politically incorrect" back in 2016.

  874. Iā€™m the girl you mentioned who doesnā€™t find any of these AIs interesting to interact with (Iā€™d just rather read a book - and I only enjoy one video game, nethack). But Iā€™m actually single (widowed, I was very devoted, but he wasnā€™t dominant, our marriage was a partnership). Looking for a dominant man to remarry! They are exceptionally rare though.

  882. Human health care should be like vet care. In both distribution and price (if not cheaper due to the lack of biological variation between pets and humans) Plenty of private practitioners, small admin costs, low medical practice insurance. A pet dog and a human could have near identical surgeries, but it costs the pet owner significantly less

  889. People high in conscientiousness do like structure. Conscientious behavior is somewhat genetic. So if someone like Jordan Peterson who is very Conscientious had very Conscientious children then his parenting style is probably great. Conscientious behavior is things like being on time, being organized and being tidy or clean, so its not necessarily bad to impart those behaviors on your children.

  892. Considering how large proportion of the Gretchen Whitmer case was FBI agents inciting people, it would be absolute insanity not to assume they are doing similar things online. And if you then consider their general competence in doing these things, you very quickly realize how terrible this is, because they're basically guaranteed to be doing the absolute dumbest things possible.

  893. In regards to Social Security bureaucrats, it isn't that they don't have cultural permission to raise the alarm about the math not working out, it's that there's no incentive for these Federal bureaucracies to report the data honestly or arrive at solutions. Thomas Sowell tells the story of the one summer he worked as an intern for a federal agency focused on minimum wage. He tried to be data-driven in his decisions and test hypotheses in his department but found that there was no appetite because NO ONE GETS PAID TO FIX THE PROBLEM IN THESE INSTITUTIONS!!!!! The day the problem is solved is the day you're out of work for these organizations: so the incentive is to try and argue for more money to be allocated to your department and to perpetuate the problem you are hired to solve so you can continue to receive a paycheck.

  898. When I heard a cyber truck was used in the attack, I thought the purpose behind that was that those trucks are self drivingā€¦ makes sense for a terrorist attack. Now I find out he was behind the wheel, shot himself before the explosion went off, and botched the entire attack anywayā€¦ is this the best our military can produce?

  899. The problem with Gentle Parenting is that we don't have long term studies on this theory. This trend showed up around 10 years ago and we haven't seen what this children look like as adults.

I firmly against lgbt recruiting in the tax supported school system. But well read and urbane people understand and tended to respect gays in the past. Maybe we can thank the man in Pennsylvania for recruiting Amish.

  903. What about Elliot Page? Almost ruined the second to last season of Umbrella Academy because they decided to have the character mirror Elliot Pageā€™s transition. And then in the last season, he was overacting like crazy. The character just became so emotionally over the top.

  908. Malcom is over thinking this. Monotheistic traditions that didnā€™t discourage idolatry were probably more prone to morphing into polytheism or having its followers picked off by polytheistic religions. I donā€™t think itā€™s that complicated.

  909. What an insight by Simone at the end lol. Game-winning three pointer, nothing but net... and a sleeping baby in her arms.

  910. My daughter (4) also wants to marry her little brother. We have explained why they can't get married several times, but she persists.
    20
  911. I remember an article about Jared Kushner and the Abraham Accords in early 2021 or so. In the article, they quoted a Saudi official involved who remarked that Kushner had asked them what Saudi Arabia wanted and what was needed to get them on board. He stated no one from the US or Europe working on the issue had ever asked them those questions. The ME envoys came with the academia developed plans and never asked the people from the countries involved, except for how large a bribe they wanted.

  912. Malcolm is the best but Simone is the bestest

  913. I think the studies lack the distinction between 1) nothing physical 2) light redirects 3) stinging redirect/light punishment (think a belt or switch on the butt) and 4) beating the crap out of your kid. It would be interesting to see those outcomes. In my life experience 1 and 4 don't turn out so well.

  916. As a Catholic, what I was taught is that things like slavery, polygamy, divorce, and the death penalty are not intrinsically evil, but they are morally hazardous. Meaning, in so far as they are unnecessary, they shouldnā€™t be tolerated.
    20
  917. Thanks for another video. As a dad I love hearing the kids in the background. Often I take my kids on my adventures and absolutely love spending time with them. Often I go running with them and their days supplies in the pram, gone all day with playground days then return them to their loving mother and my wife at night. Canā€™t wait until the youngest is weaned so we can go camping on little man trips.
    20
  918. The IQ denial thing has always boggled my mind. It is as bad as, if not worse than, not subscribing to evolutionary theory in light the past century of evidence. That's the level fact denial you have to stoop to reject the validity of IQ. It's basically the creationism of psychology. Which is why it's so confusing that so many well educated intelligent people think that it's basically a horoscope. You guys should do a video on why so many other smart people don't believe in IQ despite having the brain power to know better, not just Taleb.

  919. Scott Presser should be recognized more for his hard work and dedication.
    20
  920. The way history is reinterpreted in progressive woke circles or the core of today's leftist politics and culture stems from the root of an irreproachable black victim versus a white oppressor. Academic Eric Kaufman stands out as one of the few scholars who has adopted an empirical perspective on this matter. Although his directness about race can initially be unsettling, we need to move the Overton Window to a place where we can have respectful intellectual debates that do not have to adhere to this framing. No other euphemism of calling it ā€œurban monocultureā€ or ā€œMarxistā€ or whatever is addressing the issue.
    20
  921. "We believe that theological differences are a thing of existential value in terms of cultural solutions". Ok, we can be friends now. I was actually a big Christopher Hitchens fan, just didn't agree with "Anti-theism," I think there's no denying the case-specific utility of faith systems as adaptive sociobehavioral heuristics, even though I was bitten by an Atheist during a full moon and it's in my blood forever.

  927. as a child, same style of discipline was applied to me. applied same things to my kids. Usually a non-gentle finger tap to the forehead is enough to get that attention reset and communicate that the incident is serious. Necessary to transition from 'play' mode to 'pay attention' mode. The mere threat of withholding attention (.ie we won't play with you... etc..) is enough to correct the behavior if applied on time. By 6 years of age, other methods such putting him in a corner for a few minutes, becomes more effective. In general punishment of this kind reserved only for cases where behavior was potentially physical harmful or verging on malicious. For lesser incidents, just make the boy do extra physical exercises on the spot - 10 burpees per error, kid usually doesn't mind the physical activity but at the same time soon feels that he probably doesn't want to go past 20 burpee range at a time. It is both corrective and in the same moment, a quick outlet for the buildup of nervous energy that often accumulates in boys. Really, key with discipline is to find that golden mean of not being too finicky but at the same time learning to catch bad behavior early before it escalates.

  931. You made a good case that this individual is evil enough to justify assasination. However I always feel that we need to be cautious about signing off on assassinations. Lots of people hate a lot of other people for supposedly huge harms, and most of these claims are ideologically biased.

  934. Hypothesis: birth rate is the best metric for measuring a nation's rate of improvement.
    20
  935. Not sure what to call it but there was definitely something very different that happened the first time I saw my previous husband (passed away) and my current husband. It wasnā€™t just lustā€¦ it was an immediate and very strong intuition that I could have a very serious relationship with that person. Which obviously ended up being true lol
    20
  936. Lust at first sight is based on not just looks but detection of pheromones as well, imo. And likely we can determine someoneā€™s pheromones in large part by appearance, mannerisms, voice etc thus attraction even from afar or video footage alone.
    20
  937. Even though the video was posted one minute ago I've already watched all 46 minutes of it, so literally everything I say about it is insightful. (Only early commenters will understand how ridiculous this is.).

  941. I sometimes listen to Ben Shapiro's show just to see what the normies are saying, and he literally asked his audience to go to a survey about what his audience thinks about the content of the daily wire. This is not the behavior of a hugely successful company that can afford to lose talent
    20
  942. This couple is amazing. We may disagree with fundamental and foundational aspects in our interpretations of reality, and yet I still deeply appreciate their social-economic-political commentary. Based šŸ’Ž

  943. Weve all seen a toddler take a dive and simply seem curious over the predicament until mom rushes in and makes it a big deal- then the kid starts crying.

  944. Arranged marriage might be good where you have a similar culture to your parents. But my parents are mostly subscribers to the Urban monoculture "happiness is the only meaning" and I wouldn't trust them to make good judgements for me.
    20
  945. As someone who has done his reading I want to clarify the stoic virtue ethics a bit. You started getting into it after 5 minutes in. The stoics never said that there's only 4 characteristics that can be labelled as virtues. However many virtues might be considered as sub categories of the 4 cardinal virtues. Self control,self restraint, moderation and balance are of the same category for example. The 4 cardinal virtues are called "cardinal" from the Latin word for "hinge" . As other altruistic or pro social virtues like generosity, friendship, loyalty, courtesy, compassion, benevolence and forgiveness "hinge" on the 4 cardinal virtues usually stated as wisdom, courage, justice and moderation. The altruistic virtues can't be expressed effectively and appropriately if one lacks the 4 cardinal virtues therefore emphasis on developing the cardinal virtues is advised.

  948. 35:10 ā€“ Gotta love Simone! The ā€œchest-chest-head thingā€ is an old military (Not Police!) rule, ā€œThe Mozambique Drillā€. The rhyme I heard in the military was: ā€œTwo in the chest, one in the head, shoot that f****r until he is d**d!ā€ 39:00 ā€“ I would wager that the Denial Rate for ā€œTrans Affirming Careā€ was very low
    20
  949. I would think a big part of what makes Christianā€™s less friend inviting and Jews (supposedly) more friend inviting to religious celebrations, at least in the US and other western countries, would be that for (cultural) Christians pretty much all their friends will already have plans for Christmas or Easter etc. with family unless they are a minority that doesnā€™t celebrate Christian holidays or are in some extenuating circumstances, and I donā€™t think its weird or uncommon at all for Christianā€™s to extend an invitation for say Christmas or Christmas eve to someone that doesnā€™t have plans for Christmas for whatever reason. Where as Jews being a minority religion in western countries will probably be more likely to have people in their social circles that arenā€™t Jewish and donā€™t celebrate the same religious holidays and thus someone youā€™re thinking of inviting to a celebration are less likely to have something going on and inviting them is more likely to result in them actually accepting the invitation and showing up.

  950. 11:42 a large dog who is trained to go EVERYWHERE with the kids, a dog larger than the coyotes around your house may be the ideal solution for this. Then, as soon as you can, teach the child to do the basics of taking care of the dog, making sure they have food and water, taking the dog out, etc. If the child is the one who does everything for the dog, the dog will naturally want to follow the child(ren) everywhere.

  951. Learning to curate your parasocials is a major skill that needs to be mainstreamed. It should be considered a variant of personal grooming. Other than open-minded, positivist intellectuals like you two or Sabine Hossenfelder or Heather Heying, my #1 top online space is the Hermitcraft server. They're friendly, wholesome, keyed into self-improvement, and completely non-political. Basically the opposite of every other popular thing . I say this a 44yo man. I watch Minecraft because reality tv and movies and social media and whatnot are just... exhaustingly negative. Hermitcraft is my equivalent of snacking on carrot sticks when a mountain of chocolate and chips is available.

  952. I see the utility in the map. Two easy points to be made. 1. The visual aid assist's in making what may have been implicitly understood now explicitly understood in "easy" / comprĆ©hensible words 2. Much like language, "art" (including graphs) can plant seeds of understand or doubt in the one's systems of thinking. The utility of photographic information can become a driver in one's conception of their beliefs and rethinking the effects this has one themselves or others (Lastly I just want to say thanks to the example you both set as a family I believe I'll create a very pragmatic and oddly inclusive systems of belief that my future family will happylly seek to replicate [voluntarily]. I hope to become accomplished and intelligent enough to truly thank you or show you a tribe of people that the world will certainly come to admire and copy] šŸ’™

  955. Scapulars, holy medals, and rosary/prayer bracelets are some small Catholic religious wear items.
    19
  956. Universal Unitarians, Sikhism, some Mormonism, and now Technopuritanism all have the "all religions have some parts right, we will adopt and change as needed to consistently get closer to the ultimate truth of god". Almost like a scientific method for progress, but for religion.
    19
  957. @30:00, and @31:25 The 'white woman' vote as you note is not a monolith, married 'white' women will barely (by numbers) vote conservative while unmarried 'white' women will largely vote left. Rush Limbaugh noted that reality nearly 30 years ago, and posited that it was a strong motivator for the Democrats to deliberately fracture families and discourage the institution of marriage. Again as you note in the video, there is a 'family' vs 'self' interest difference between the groups, but there is also a selection bias in that more conservative women will get married while more leftist women will not.
    19
  958. The church from 300-1300 is a good example of non-technophobic pluralistic (to a small degree), pro-natalist culture. She created gothic architecture and revitalized civilizational milestones like roads and aqueducts. At the same time, early on she adapted art, architecture, and expression of practices to different cultures (compare the book of Kells with Greek iconography for example, or compare Celtic monasticism with the more defined episcopacy in the Mediterranean). I'm sure this isn't a critique that's new to ya'll, but the problem with Malcoms future is that it lacks a spiritual component. If history tells us anything, it's that civilization can't survive without religious practices. Most technophobia from trad cultures isn't about the technology itself, it's about control and the need for that culture to monopolize access to the technology. Notice how Afghanistan's regime is slowly becoming less technophobic now that they have control.

  961. You should listen to what Elon says about charity... he said it is easy to give money and appear like you are helping, BUT ACTUALLY SOLVING the problem is much more difficult and it is easy to provide tons of money while making the problem worse. Accountability in charitable organizations ACCOUNTABILITY IN GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS!

  962. In the early '70s, it was people starving in China. Never knew how eating my turnip greens helped that. But I grew up to learn that the people in China were starving because of socialism. And the 'elite', even back then, don't want to end or reduce socialism.

    19
  966. My only issue with the restoration of free speech is the words "lawful speech". We all know how the state twists definitions to ban speech, so the word "lawful" allows them to ban a lot of things.
    19
  967. 1. Lav mic 2. Music alternatim with speech, not over it, use it to bridge between talk segments with panoramic shots of the household 3. Moar please, your homestead is extra. I'd worry about lyme ticks in the Eastern US, and frack pollution throughout Pennsylvania (I just found a map, looks like southeast is clear and northwest has a lot of wells), but... damn.

  972. and yes thank you about the line where even if it's the bad owners fault šŸ™„ it doesn't matter they still need to be banned because we can't know who will be the "good owner." That's what I've always been saying to the pit mommies online.
    19
  973. How can I support this?
    19
  974. Yeah, I noticed the quality of Contrapoints, Philosophy Tube, and Digibro all declined post transition.
    19
  975. I may be biased, but I've always looked at Sweden for cutting edge medical practices. When Sweden started putting the brakes on transitioning, I knew that it was not just my skepticism; there was a problem with transitioning. What shocked me was the people I knew who agreed with me generally, but thought THIS time it was being done by the vast right wing movement in Sweden.
    19
  976. Its so funny hearing people who promote but-seggs say "breeding fetish" like there is something bad about that. Umm, buddy... Thats putting sexuality in the place it was supposed to go.

  978. Yeah I'm 40 years old and I like a nice body as much as the next guy but I've never had a desire to go in a strip club. It's not about a woman I am interested in performing for others, but more about... a woman I am not interested in performing for me... that would be awkward as hell. I don't get it to be honest. I don't understand why one would want to be sexually aroused in public with a woman, or women, that are (in most cases) NOT going to satisfy the arousal and just leave you with blue balls.

    18
  997. I feel like there might also be something having to do with vulnerability and weakness that plays into thisā€¦ I think married women may feel more protected and safe independently (not because of government) and that kind of security may allow them to have more freedom-leaning views, whereas single women may be leaning more into a heavily regulated and controlled society with extra support provided to those who are not able to succeed in society, since thatā€™s a bigger fear for them.
    18
  998. If the rich and powerful don't start to understand the underpinnings of society and the results of their actions I only see this happening more frequently: 1: Legal does not equal moral 2: In a stateless society you could morally kill someone that stole substantially from you or killed your family 3: Society/Government has entered an agreement to handle all disagreements. The right of vengeance/redress that citizens have is passed to the gov in exchange for a fair and equal application of justice. 4: Governments neglect their duty to equal consideration under the law in favor of money and influence 5: The moral claim of government to monopolize vengeance and redress erodes more and more 6: Government no longer acts in their role and society no longer trusts government resulting in people taking their right of vengeance/redress into their hands again as they expect the harshest treatment for themselves while those with influence and $$$, including hiding behind laws of incorporation, receive no punishment for their bad actions. 7: People exact violent retribution against those who wrong them. While unlawful it is not immoral, due to the government and politically powerful having broken their end of the bargain in the first place.

  1004. You had multiple areas where they where attacked and changed. But the quick one, would be easy money to borrow from government investors firm. I am sorry to say, but part of this was the Norwegian oil fund, that invested in "social aware" companies. So, to get access to this easy money, they needed to hire diversity hires to make the company "social aware". Then you had how HR departments hired other who was brainwashed in academia to be woke. And then we have how the current generation of high educated, got brainwashed in academia, after the cold war ended, so they could no longer notice how these ideas failed in east Europe. But the next, will grow up, knowing how woke destroy companies so this will not last.
    18
  1005. I wonder if you would get put on the list for saying things like: "The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race." Or "Sometimes reasonable men must do unreasonable things"

Today Sputh Korea is a first world nation and Haiti is destitute. Stop blaming those dumb payments for Haitis bad governance. Really 1948... how many more DECADES can Haiti use that excuse?

  1014. The rudest awakening I've had is realizing just how deeply ingrained anti-Semitism is in the Islamic world, from Morocco to Pakistan, and even India. I think we've made the grave mistake of thinking that militant extremism in these countries is like militant extremism in our own, where the sentiments of the extremists are wildly out of sync with the larger population. It seems that is not the case in many of those countries. Most people don't want to risk their own lives taking up arms against the US, Israel or other political enemies, but many people sympathize with those that do, or at least share their value structure, just not their tactics. I've been extremely disturbed to find it almost impossible to find Muslim apologists, scholars or influencers who do not hold powerful anti-Semite, anti-Christian, anti-Western and anti-Secular views. I started looking into it after Oct 7 last year, and its been very troubling to realize people I thought were generally peaceable, and even aligned with my personal values weren't just slightly different in their worldview, but embraced ideas that were in final analysis, murderous with people like me as the target.

  1015. The rise of Neo-Platonism created the dominance of ontological monism in philosophy. Platonius' "The One" as the eternal generator of all things found a parallel in Yahweh that made him more palatable than the diverse pantheons of the old pagans. The influence of Platonius on the high culture of late antiquity should not be understated. Augustine quoted him on his death bed!

  1017. As a German, I understand your derision and take it in the spirit it is offered, though I'd rather like you to not insult our language ;). I like my culture, but we appear to have lost our will to power, ie our will to leave a mark on the world, and without that you can't survive in a competitive world. I think we were once one of those correct answers, and ironically given how wokeness works, what ruined things for us back then was an overentitled sense of victimhood after the end of WWI, and the revanchist mindset that resulted from it. Not that there wasn't reason for it, but it was not the right answer. We'll see how things go. As for the party ban, I'm not an AfD voter but this is a really stupid idea from any political point of view, and I wonder what got into those 113 lawmakers. All it'll do is to make communication across political divides even more difficult than it already is, and that's the last thing we need. Meanwhile, there are several misperceptions in your video about Germany after 35:00 I can't correct because it would take too long.

  1019. Bopping is what I do with my dogs, that is very different to spanking or corporate punishment. Other animals do it too, doges, wolves, when I was on a project researching dolphins, they did it too. Corporal punishment is like my grandmother, who beat her children with a hair brush so hard and often she ended up with her wrist in a sprain. Didn't work very well. But it's hard to communicate with a very small toddler. My mum never used corporal punishment with me, but when I was a toddler and biting everyone she did end up biting me back, which made me understand biting caused pain, and I stopped biting people (apart from much more rarely when I DID want to hurt someone šŸ˜‚)

  1026. Traditional conservatism for women is just feminist light. The woman will always strive for equality in the relationship and never learn to serve her family. The only condition that the husband is even there is because he serves the family in his own way usually through working. So a traditional woman's thrives for equality but she never works outside the family and she denigrates the husband when he doesn't work enough inside the family. The man will derive value of himself by the way his family turns out. It is very hard for a woman to get into this value system because she has been given so much attention to her all her life. When she starts losing that attention during the marriage she sees herself as having no value.

  1029. I think you have a decent seed of an idea, but incorrectly analyzed. Disgust based moral systems work, but have externalities. A culture based on avoiding/removing disgust would be functional, positive, and broadly good for human flourishing. Its issue would not be that it did not work, but that the externalities it created were cruel. For instance, avoiding disease is a prosocial norm, but unjust shunning of a cripple is an evil act. Where I think you misread the prior moral systems is that even in harder disgust based moralities, higher order thinkers recognized that excess or blind disgust could lead to cruelty, and in the most functional, you see arguments that essentially boil down to "yes, live clean and virtuous, but also remember mercy and compassion". Where cringe morality took over was where the countervailing force of "remember X when experiencing disgust" became dominant over disgust. Instead of mercy and compassion to the infirm, it became condemnation of the able. In many ways, the problem is that the higher-order thoughts became the low-brow thoughts. A helpful truism is that "the prize for winning the culture is to see the stupid version of your smart ideas". Disgust as a low resolution system functioned for grug-brain and monk-brain alike, and when the elite also argued for contrary compassion, you saw the greatest human flourishing. When that compassion became the Grug-brain low resolution "base morality", it turned toxic (it's unsound like an inverted pyramid). What your seeing with "based" is a cognitive elite counter-signal in favor that "sometimes disgust is necessary" just as "sometimes compassion is necessary" countered low resolution disgust morality. Tl;Dr - low res disgust is functional, and when tempered by high resolution mercy, is great. Low res mercy is dysfunctional, and we've yet to see if/how it can be countered by high resolution disgust. Tl;Dr 2 - as the prize for winning the culture war is low resolution versions of high resolution thinking, one of the preeminent challenges of our era is fighting for cultures that function for Grug as well as for Aquinas, since there are far more Grugs.

  1038. Firstly, I do appreciate you both for taking on this issue of skilled immigration at face value and going over its pros and cons. This is an admirable quality of the 2 of you which is sorely missed in many commentators and is why I subscribe to you. However, I think there are multiple variables that you overlooked. Firstly, there is a concern over inter-ethnic tensions within these organizations and in the broader Right-wing coalition. Thomas Sowell talks about how affirmative action, among its myriad issues, is more likely to produce animosity between ethnic groups rather than alleviate them because of the perception that said ethnic beneficiary is receiving special treatment. This issue is likely to produce a similar form of tension that could be a problem for a pluralistic future. Cultural diversity is an admirable pursuit but it must be balanced against inter-cultural animosity. Second, this is a serious Motte and Bailey situation because the discussion in this podcast was surrounding high-skilled labor ā€“ as in the economic and national benefit to bringing in people to fill productivity gaps in the American labor market. However, look at the positions being offered for H1B Visas currently. Youā€™ll see listings like Data Analysts (entry level), Accountants (entry level), even line cooks (no degree necessary). Iā€™m libertarian myself, but this is EXACTLY what happened to Canada: competition in labor markets deflating wages in tech industries while competition for housing increasing cost of living = decreased living standards. Predictable undesirable outcomes. Finally, this discussion is causing the new right, particularly Musk himself, to behave EXTREMELY questionably. You guys brought up Laura Loomer as one of the detractors in this discussion. Say what you want about her business acumen compared to the likes of Vivek or Elon, but Lauren had her X account SUSPENDED and her checkmark removed ā€“ along with MANY others in the wake of this discussion. Regardless of where anyone stands on this issue, this is concerning. Whoever is making these decisions at X headquarters is risking the Elonā€™s integrity as a warrior for free speech and thus weakening his standing with the new rightwing coalition. Itā€™s as if in November everyone was saying ā€œThe Right is not longer the party of big business, weā€™re for the working class!ā€ and now, after speaking with a lot of my fellow right-wing friends, at the end of December itā€™s ā€œThe Right is in favor of Big Business outsourcing its talent at discounted prices.ā€ I want to reiterate ā€“ I appreciate you guys both giving both sides of the argument consideration and I donā€™t have any issue with you both landing on the pro side of the H1B discussion. Itā€™s good for there to be debate over meaningful questions. But just as a person observing this discussion, and especially with the backlash that itā€™s producing online, this feelsā€¦ ominouslyā€¦ like a canary in the coal mine for things to come. Happy New Year!

  1039. I dated a feminist gal once with the hope of "trying to fix her," (spoiler alert: I failed, no fixing occurred, relationship ended poorly). One of the things that, at least so long as she was in a relationship with me that DID notably change her mindset (at least with me in conversation) was that she learned to empathize with me and the obvious disparity in the higher amount of effort I was bringing to the relationship versus the much lower amount she contributes (realizations like this are what extended this relationship beyond when it should've ended). A HUGE issue on this note is that culture has created a mental prison for women like this. It takes an IMMENSE amount of either outside effort or a terrible internal emotional breakdown for these women to realize how narcisstic and self-centered they've been trained to be in order to stop them from being "Nuns to the State" for the rest of their lives. They are literally inculcated into a fantasy bubble that teaches them to directly ignore and denigrate the needs of half the human population, while that half makes endless excuses for this behavior and generally gives them constant benefit of the doubt. This right here to me, is the actual heart of the Anti-Natalist miasma in modern society, as far as I'm concerned. The state literally trains scores of the female population to be unmarriageable and eternally single and unhappy in order to keep them as a stable, submissive, voting bloc. Also Malcolm. Bro: take a day off. You sound sick.

  1048. A man is typically driven by two forces. Seeking female attention and seeking male peer approval. Being masculine and being humorous are often parts of this equation. Creatives who write are operating within this context as a male. When they transition they are no longer seeking male approval but they are hyperfocused on attention from both men and women. They abandon being humorous because that is not a typical female tactic and they abandon masculinity ( physicality and acts of valor) and the thought processes that come with these behaviors. Which gives them no context from which to write these character types.

  1058. I have a relative who does extremely well for himself whos eldest daughter was largely raised by babysitters while he was building his first companies and still working well over full time as a CFO. He frequently says its one of the biggest regrets of his life. His daughter had behavioral issues when she was younger (14-19ish) but those decisions frame out the rest of your existence for a lot of people. His other kids were raised at home (To a degree with their eldests help) and they are all little geniuses and generally really well socialized for the ingroup they operate in and select to be around, bunches of friends from public schools and otherwise. very little grief. All that being said i grew up pretty poor (I wasnt Eating dirt just extremely financially instable at the bottom end) and in that circumstance, the neighboring parent helping parent you, was how my mom didnt have to pay for child care. I had half a dozen parents who all lived on the same block, i played with their kids, and in retrospect they shared cultural values around child rearing that were pretty compatable so it worked out. We had a common strategy for dealing with poverty that was a more communal relationship. This broke down by blocks, where over a certain street, you werent allowed to discipline someone elses kid, but if you lived on our street with all the other parents of my lifelong friends, you could expect to be disciplined by anyone. It really did give me the constant instruction required to not grow up to be a poor member of what would end up being my broader community

Well, then someone in the comments actually went and did some back-of-the-envelope math and figured that I was actually technically correct. I think the number they came up with was between $12 -16 billion GDP. I can't find the original comment again, it was so long ago. Has little to do with the point of this video I know, but I thought someone might find it interesting/funny regardless.

No big collapse, which would be preferred, but slow decline as things become more expensive and we are increasingly brought under a heavier and heavier state that makes everything worse except for themselves. But something very good could emerge from this.

No relationship is perfect, ofc, but if you CAN find such a well matched partner reasonably quickly, and you donā€™t let these things override logic, these aspects are immensely bonding. I think itā€™s also somewhat hypocritical of you to claim love & attraction arenā€™t necessary in a marriage when you obviously have them strongly in your own.

I know so many DINKS that give their dogs or cats a life that indicates they would make extremely competent and loving parents. And studies on narcissism show that, often, narcissistic people are actually better than other people. I would argue that if most DINKS decided to have children tomorrow they would have higher quality children and give them better lives than the average child in the USA has.

  1096. Regarding the importance of orthodox preaching for church vitality, as opposed to simply echoing secular culture from a pulpit: in the Catholic Church there was a revolution in the 1960s in which, in Western countries, both the traditional liturgy and traditional doctrine were done away with. (On paper the doctrine was the same, but in practice Catholicism became a different and much more liberal religion.) Traditionalists, who have refused these changes, have been very much in the habit of pointing to their preservation of the liturgy as the reason for their congregations' vitality while the mainstream congregations die out. As someone from a trad Cath background drilled in this "It's the liturgy, stupid" explanation, it was very interesting for me to see some high-church Episcopalian services, beautiful and reverent, sung by competent choirs... with half-empty pews and no children. While I definitely think the liturgy is a fundamental part of the appeal of traditionalist Catholicism (and certainly was the main draw to me ā€” having been used to the dreary standard Novus Ordo Mass, my mind was blown the first time I attended a Latin High Mass), to a great extent trad Caths probably misdiagnose the reason for their own success within the Catholic Church, which has much more to do with doctrinal orthodoxy, intransigence, and demands placed upon the believer than with the liturgy.

  1104. Just had our second, third already being planned.

  1105. I am a mom of multiple children and I would like to be a low effort parent but I feel an intense amount of social pressure from both sides of the political spectrum not to be.

  1106. Malcolm is the God Emperor of wife guys

  1109. 7:43 The term Malcolm was looking for here is "orbiter." I agree that sidepiece typically involves sex.
    16
  1110. I like how Simone tries to see the light in people, and then Malcolm comes in with the "That zombie isn't going to hug and kiss you, he's going to bite you and convert you to Islam." Now, university professors will have to compete with "Indian Tutorial Youtuber #503,021".
    16
  1111. Things will change. They always do, however, we can adapt to technological change while preserving traditional values. We can begin addressing infertility through teaching people how to manage stress, eat better, we can promote skills to young people that will help them to maintain long-term relationships. The question is whether we descend into some technocratic tyranny or will we create society that still values human life and freedom of choice, conscience, and have leadership that is accountable to the population. BTW what we now view as traditional was at one point an innovation.šŸ˜Š
    16
  1112. Before watching this, I'll just comment that it's a fairly obvious consequence of the establishments 1984 style fascism being shown that it has vulnerabilities and that you're not an impotent robot to just do as you're told.
    16
  1113. tl;dr the theory: Mormon church launches massive ad campaign -> mormon keyword ecosystem -> mormon cpm raise -> mormon rebrand for devout -> mormon keyword ad spend only used to find "nonbelievers." I think this makes good sense. Could be a happy accident, but the religious among us would certainly take this as a great example of "intelligent design." Interesting find!

  1114. Maybe they used a really hard wax that stiffened, thickened & protected their nails? šŸ¤”

  1115. Nepal is overwlmingly Hindu, not Buddhist. I made the same mistake, it's a Buddhist holy site, but 80% of the population are Hindu, 10% Buddhist, roughly. The Ghurkas come from there, and they are absolutely Hindu.
    16
  1116. Can I please mention, for the last year I have spent time working with ppl in financial hardship. What I have anecdotally found, is that the vast majority of my clients (in NZ a well developed country) make multiple financially damaging decisions, and are usually oblivious to them. Ways of spending, bad debt, living beyond means etc. That said, some people do want to make behavior changes to better their circumstances, maybe a UBI would improve their situation in the long term.

  1117. @ but this girl is different. She uses 4chan and edgy racial slurs. She even hates her parents. Surely that is individuality
    16
  1118. Pragmatists guide arrived. Read for a few hours and bought two more. Good stuff and I appreciate the blunt perspectives since no one wants to talk aboot anything at all anymore here in canuckland. Love that your audience can debate as well and not lose their ish.

    16
  1122. 11:30 As a Nigerian, I couldn't agree more with you. I have come to the conclusion that black America's problems are cultural and not racial. I may not live in America but even I know how the richest racial demographics are Asian-Americans. I also know that legal African immigrants do better socioeconomically there. It can even be seen here in Nigeria. The tribes and regions tgat do well socioeconomically are mainly the ones here in the south because our cultures embrace more modernity, capitalism, education and civic nationalism while northern states tend to be poorer for the exact opposite.
    16
  1123. I wonder if home maintenance costs are (at least partially) a function of houses in the US being built as subdivisions, so things are built to be "good enough to sell", not to last
    16
  1124. Good lord, this is amazing. It makes me want to buy the movie rights. You good with adding zombies? But seriously, you have my true admiration for daring this level of vulnerability. Just exercising your healthy right to be imperfectly human! This kind of bold honesty makes a lot of people squirm. I think that may be because it forces us to question our own thinking in just the right way. Imagine if all YouTube was so daringly honest and personal... what effect that could have on our collective mental health. Thanks for providing something I didn't know I needed.
    15
  1125. I think Malcolm has a really good point about demonizing the other side to your kids. I see that happen in many aspects of life where parents give blanket "don't associate with or do this" statements with no explanation. Then when their kid experience it in a positive way they throw out the baby with the bathwater. Cause now in the kids eyes you lied to them. So their is importance in teaching the nuance of things. I think reading old fairytales are a good way of implanting those concepts. Unlike normal kid stories, fairytales try and tackle more complex subjects.

  1127. I'm from the Netherlands, here you can create new schools and have them sponsored by the Dutch government. Find multiple people in the Netherlands (and countries with similar laws) and have the government subsidise "Collinsian method schools" (or however y'all want to call it), find disgruntled teaching staff that don't like the current system. It is possible to challenge the established order.
    15
  1128. I totally expect "Do you want to know more" after that last note.
    15
  1129. You aren't far right. You're not quite libertarian, but I'd certainly consider you libertarian adjacent, considering how you're pluralists, support libertarian policy positions and aren't even authoritarian as parents. You aren't alone. The leftist media sticks those labels on almost everyone that deviate from them.
    15
  1130. Note: This is a real phenomenon (the panic). I just learned some people thought this was a joke. Also, we had to cover this topic before tomorrows episode where we will explore gender dysphoria as a parallel culture bound phenomenon.

  1132. The UK is intensely dystopian now a days. I feel terrible for them. I also feel like they are on the verge of an insurrection.
    15
  1133. Malcolm could have ended up being such a super villain if he placed aesthetics in the highest place of value like his dad.
    15
  1134. Son, this world is rough And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough I knew I wouldn't be there to help you along So I give you that name, and I said goodbye And I knew you'd have to get tough or die It's that name that helped to make you strong

  1138. I had never thought of the jello mold as a status signaling gesture, but it makes so much sense. No wonder they have lost their luster with refrigerators becoming ubiquitous.
    15
  1139. I come from Midwest farm culture. What you were describing in regard to the dominant females fighting, is a very relatable concept. Where Iā€™m from this tends to take place at large parties and such. For the very same reasons. It not only raises her status, but also makes him look more important. Men love a sexy girl with fluttery eyelashes, but a woman who will fight, is šŸ”„. And these women donā€™t do it because they wanna kick the others rear end. Itā€™s a show for the men. Perhaps from somewhere deep within, our primitive courting rituals will always be with us. No matter which class one belongs. We just manifest this instinctual behavior through whatever type of social structure we happen to be born intoā€¦
    15
  1140. the biggest problem with the housing topic is that most women wouldn't entertain a man that says "we'll have many kids and live in my parent's house", so even if dudes are convinced of this they'll still be out of luck.
    15
  1141. The song at the end of the episode: https://youtu.be/csR6t5jBSww We are creating a new channel just for our music and will hopefully add stuff like this to more videos. Let us know if you like it.
    15
  1142. Can you guys please make a complete video on your one civilisation theory doing it in way more detail because itā€™s actually extremely interesting
    15
  1143. So excited about your podcast / series, you are both awesome and quite informative, and lovely. Love your insights and mission.
    15
  1144. "4E Cognition refers to the embedded, the embodied, the enactive, and the extended conception of mind (Newen et al., 2018). Broadly speaking, researchers sympathetic with this paradigm defend that cognition transcends the boundaries of the brain." So basically religion?
    15
  1145. Youā€™re attractive, Simone. To most men youā€™re attractive and the rest are just hating. Malcom married up!
    15
  1146. Could you please do an episode on "aligned values" in a romantic relationship and how to get on the same page in the dating stage šŸ™
    15
  1147. I wonder if second generation Indian immigrants tend to submit to the urban monoculture as much as other Asians. I donā€™t think I ever found a woke Indian except some elite ones that work on Fortune 500 companies.
    15
  1148. Bravery level equals 1,000% Malcolm being willing to hold a baby and a microphone in a multiple person in interview. Dang that's epic level gutsy.
    15
  1149. Starting up a stream with a recognizable catchphrase is something many people do. Also Malcolm is doing the preparation of the content and presents it to Simone. So it makes sense that he greets her.
    15
  1150. The system cannot allow new heros, or new voices. Change threatening 'the way things are.'
    15
  1151. 12:25 I have maintained for a couple years that the correct response to, ā€œaccept me for who I amā€ has always been ā€œno, become betterā€¦ and I will also.ā€

  1152. As a teenager im looking at these images and lowkey think "wow, awesome" but erm... go on...yes fertility colapse bad.
    15
  1153. The entire concept of "sexual identity" itself is bit absurd. People even openly acknowledge this when it comes to "CIS Men" rather specifically. A "CIS Man" who revolves their identity around their sexuality will be considered such things as pervert, predator, creep, etc. Identity for "CIS Men" tends to be based on accomplishment, hobbies, occupation, and so forth.
    15
  1154. The only fear of death I have left is who will create the income for the family and what kills me is my daughters not having me there at their wedding. My fears aren't for me. They are for them. The idea of my son not having a father in the home terrifies me. So it's not that the fear of death disappears. It's that your fears transpose to your children. Only my kids' well-being and future matters. They are my everything. And it was immediate the moment they put my first daughter in my arms. Nothing in this world matters more than their safety and prosperity.
    15
  1155. The medicalā€“industrial complex is the first thing to tackle. Healthcare in the US is too expensive for what it actually provides. Apart from very niche trials and very complex surgeries were America is often the best, most of the healthcare system is too expensive and with a bloated administration (the majority of workers in the medical industry aren't nurses or doctors). As for subsidizing, a lot of things are being subsidized for a minority or for economically unsustainable things (roads, suburban infrastructure), so I don't see it as a particularly unusual thing. As for PreP itself, considering gay men tend to be more economically productive than average and can have higher revenues than average (if in a couple), they should pay for their own medication if they're promiscuous and think they need the medication. The cost of the medication should be going down in any scenario anyway, if capitalism isn't broken. One thing I agree with is if subsidies for gay men should be a thing, it should be to encourage them to have children.
    15
  1156. Level of extra pair paternity in the USA, Canada and other WEIRD countries is only 1-2%. High levels of extra pair paternity in the Himba, who have arranged marriages. Some evidence that men are less jealous in societies where they are expected to do little to no childcare or provisioning.
    15
  1157. That first opening made me wonder, I know that there is still drug dealing going on from that group, I wonder if it makes it easier to sell drugs to someone, if you know they're not wearing a wire, and know they cannot turn on you, because you have footage of them with a Young girl... Like I understand being called a racist is a very powerful weapon, but there has to be something more going on for this cover up to be so widespread and desperate
    15
  1158. holy #$%! I got to talk to that guy, I've attended a Presbyterian church in the Philadelphia area that almost got destroyed by hiring a woke pastor who went full on trying to promote the leftist point of view in almost every sermon. I've talked to Presbyterians who have left the demonization for going from Jesus to Marx. He is so spot on about conservatives just giving up and letting them take over all the institutions. I know conservatives who tell me not to even dialog with liberals. I'm still trying to digest this incredible message
    15
  1159. Gurren Lagann! Just the mere mention of the show lights a fire in my soul! It's a beautiful show and a great metaphor. Never considered it in this context of a higher calling. Love this episode.
    15
  1160. How did genetics become a right wing thing? Uneven distribution of resources includes genetics. Itā€™s time we stopped pretending that any discussion of genetics is right wing, and start acknowledging our differences so we can best support everyone based on their needs.
    15
  1161. I will be giving this a go and keeping an eye on the progression, great idea.
    15
  1162. Imagine denying an entire race the humanity of being corrected by your peers.

    15
  1164. So far I remember / Some info : Anna Kasrperian ( game gate ) was provided with lots of Cash / sponsored by a very very high female party leader of The Netherlands in Brussel. VVD is the Dutch party that provided Mark Rutte as past PM for 12 year and is now head of NATO. Mark is Bested student of Kraus Schwab ( person who setup WEF ).

  1166. Simone, as a Bostonian, all I have to say is "That's Boston for you" šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ If you want an real reason, most of them believe that they just need more social workers / government community projects and all of these crimes would just go away!šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚
    15
  1167. The problem you have with the FBI not following up on basic open and shut cases is what a lot of people are experiencing in the UK with police forces. You are listed as a statistic, then they carry on doing their own ideologically driven never ending work.
    15
  1168. That's amazing... I am a f*ing crypto conservative. Software Engineering background. Grew up in the "Global South". I absolutely respect being able to be intellectual when needed but also to be able to clean your sewage -- and yes I did both myself. But I guess this is the nature that every person that had to carve a better place for him/her self must have -- respect work, it does not matter what the work it is... I mean, mostly. Because I'm sorry but I will never respect sex work, I respect a construction worker, I respect an engineer, I respect a scientist, but I cannot respect a sex worker, or a a gender studies researcher.
    15
  1169. I looked up that full James Joyce passage, and I've been laughing harder than I have in a long time.
    15
  1170. Donald Trump is absolutely Jack Sparrow. It's the perfect comparison, and I'm shocked I haven't heard of this comparison before. In universe, he's both loved by some and disrespected by others for very similar reasons, he's the living embodiment of slipping on a banana peel and sticking the landing, and he oozes wit and intuitive brilliance, just like Trump. They're both also driven by legacy and wanting to "live forever" in one sense of another as well. As someone who was born into lower-middle class Midwestern society, I fit your description of being a bit confused that real estate, lawyers, and doctors aren't considered high class in the uppermost echalons of society, but then I remembered the Stanley Kubrick movie Eyes Wide Shut. Bill Harford (Tom Cruise) is a doctor who often services the NYC blue blood elite, but he isn't one of them. He's forever on the periphery, but just close enough that he gets their table scraps, and he and his wife, Alice (Nicole Kidman), are trying to get in the club (though there's a theory that Alice already was, but I digress). The upper class characters made it pretty clear that Bill was considered more of a "servant friend" who they'd entertain because he was useful to them, but he wasn't really one of them no matter how much he wanted to be. Bill also goes around signalling his wealth in the way that he tips and flashes his credentials everywhere. The film is about things like martial fidelity, the fantasy and reality of the intersection between marriage, class, and sexuality, the real nature of the differences between men and women, and so on, but the narrative also shows Bill getting a peek inside the upper echalons of society as well. He sneaks into the inner circle uninvited, and doing so basically throws him into extremely precarious and ethically shady situations. It essentially tells Bill and the audience that you really don't want to be a part of what the blue bloods have. Point being, your comments about class went from sounding confusing to completely clicking in my mind because of the movie Eyes Wide Shut and how well Kubrick seemed to understand the elite classes and was able to dissect and critique (and sometimes mock) them. If you guys would ever be interested in doing a kind of analysis of that film, I think it would be incredibly interesting. I think it intersects quite a bit with some of your discussions around class and marriage lately.

  1172. I was listening to a science fiction short story, and then I saw the title for today's video, had to watch It... One of these days I'll figure out what color lipstick simone uses.. I want to buy the type of red shade for my sister, xD But I always thought their obsession with that show was strange...
    14
  1173. Malcolm is basically half the cast of ā€œthe Book of Mormonā€ (I went to see it recently).
    14
  1174. I also think it's related to people living longer. The older gen are still very much in power in their 70s while their kids are entering 50 with no sign of getting that spot for another 10 years. I think the Queen of England passing is a great example, she lived so long in power that her replacement was also old because he has been waiting for so long. Before an upstart for the next gen was their parents inheritance (whether through will or life insurance) but now, on average, you're not gonna see that money until your already fairly old yourself. So no real changes can happen until the oldest gen fully retires. Most mainstream fashion, entertainment, tech, are pushing nostalgia. "Everything was better in the 90s" because we never left. We're like a muddy pond that was once pretty but no longer flowing and started to bog down from our own achievements.
    14
  1175. An additional issue with VC and the tech industry generally is Indian ethnic nepotism. Lots of these networks are replacing merit (white male) with ethnic priority. Indians are common in the tech space and very much ethnically motivated due to their caste system and ethnic competition back home. They actively hire their own, take over institutions and lock out other groups from entering. Basically every major tech corporation is suffering from this dynamic as of late. I would know. I'm in a startup. The VC we work with has Indians, our CEO is Indian (soon to replaced by another Indian), 3 of my coworkers are Indian, 1 is a Japanese woman who was in part a dei hire, and the last is a white man who does most of the work.
    14
  1176. As a Mormon, I've enjoyed so many of your thoughts and perspectives. Your constant search for truth is inspiring. It does seem like in your quest for understanding, you are spiraling closer and closer to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This video was particularly entertaining because while most are attracted to our more core agreed upon beliefs, you seem to feel more of a kinship to the fringes of our religion, which has a lot of frayed edges and loose threads, where as you pointed out, not all of us can agree to come together on. Usually those topics are what cause people to lose interest in our faith. It's just so intriguing to me that those topics are what have caused you to gain more interest in our faith! Also, I've never watched Saturday's warrior... I guess I gotta get with the program!
    14
  1177. I would like to point out. That the sign the pendulum was swinging started immediately after the 1st trump assassin attempt. It was the first instance of maga cancel culture in action we have really seen. Righteous indignation at online statements about the event. Outside of this specific instance the maga right is fairly tolerant of speech. Although the other early sign of the vibe shift came from Hollywood and the gaming sphere. The critical drinker and nerdrotic Started to be interviewed on corporate media shows. Suicide kill the judge league failed hard. + The gamers decided to boycott woke material. The signs were there but the popular vote victory cemented the perception of the shift in the social consciousness..

  1180. I am kind of astonished that Simone missed the whole era of atheism becoming infected with intersectional feminism and becoming Atheism+ (TM), which transitioned many of the largest channels and outlets into intersectional feminism vs anti-feminism. It kinda started around 2011 (setting the stage for GamerGate to explode) and morphed into the "Skeptic Community" by 2017. Even as this thread trended more "conservative" or "right wing" though, the most prominent voices seemed to heavily skew towards being new atheists or former new atheists. Then when Jordan Peterson became popular that opened a door back to religion that was based in science... evolutionary psychology. Fast forward to Elon buying twitter and this swath of people with such backgrounds, many of whom were banned under the previous ownership (i.e. Sargon), have a more full and formal understanding of what happened over the previous decade and this resurgence is now taking place. It is worth noting that today's e/acc community is overly represented by Orthodox Christianity. Something I don't understand yet, but definitely is interesting and I'm sure is related to this.

  1183. Iā€™m learning a lot from this and your videos more than school šŸ’€somethings I never even though about or got introduced to
    14
  1184. IS there a statistic on how many mothers have abortions AFTER a first child? I have also seen abortion supporters switch AFTER the birth of grandchildren. That's another psychological question, what is better about grandchildren? I don't know of any information on why the grandparent to grandchild connection is so strong and worldview changing.

  1187. We need more top-down in the parenting local level and more bottom up in the government federal levels. Everything seems inverted now.

  1188. OMG, Simone is right about the sledge hammer. A few years ago I was living in one of my rentals while I was in between houses. At that moment, it was a rougher neighborhood. I kept a sledge hammer (and a gun) by my bed. As a landlord, I have a lot of tools and a sledge hammer seems to be one of the more effective defensive weapons. One night, at 2 AM, a single Mom neighbor came pounding on my door frantically asking for help. I jumped out of bed with the sledge hammer, opened the front door and saw two shorter men harassing her. I don't know what they wanted. She's on welfare and doesn't necessarily hang out with good people. Maybe money problems. I yelled from my porch, "Hey you f***ers, if you don't get out of here right now, I'm going to bash in your heads." They looked at me stunned. A bright white, nearly naked, foot taller man holder a Harbor Freight sledge hammer. They stood dumbfounded. So I repeated, "If you don't get out of here *now*, I start swinging!" They both ran away. Diane, the neighbor, thanked me and the rest of the night was peaceful. So yes, I agree with Simone's expectation. I have another story where I brought a water bottle (sitting next to me now) to a knife fight...

  1191. I agree with Simone about the opportunity cost with relationships with a large age gap. I know a lot of marriages that have 10 to 20 year gaps that have worked out well. But being with a person who isn't in it for the long haul can definitely put your best years behind you without offering her the opportunity for a future with children and it in my opinion can be detrimental to a woman's ability to take care of herself later in life.
    14
  1192. As a person whose bike was stolen, and knowing it's consequences, I agree, we should think about it.

  1193. Malcolm, your monologue near the beginning of this video earned this channel the right to be called BASED camp. Unapologetic and cutting critique of the urban mono culture aka woke aka GlobalHomo (Global Homogeneity, not the other connotation) without devolving into name calling. Logically sound backed up by IRL observations. Bravo. I am so glad I came across your channel. The algo isnt all bad all the time. šŸ˜Š
    14
  1194. This guy got ratioā€™ed big time. I donā€™t think his wife did it, but I listened to her statement about his death carefully. She said he ā€œlived life to the fullest.ā€ I didnā€™t hear ā€œSweet and kindā€ in that. I heard possibly dooshy. Denying nausea medication to a dying child so your shareholders can enjoy record profits - thats super villain behavior.
    14
  1195. I chuckled at the obsession of the young engineers, and then realized I have at least 4 desktop computers that are out of the closet and cried.
    14
  1196. 26:50 - Simone may appreciate this, because it immediately came to mind: "You will say that these are very small sins; and doubtless, like all young tempters, you are anxious to be able to report spectacular wickedness. But do remember, the only thing that matters is the extent to which you separate the man from the Enemy. It does not matter how small the sins are provided that their cumulative effect is to edge the man away from the Light and out into the Nothing. Murder is no better than cards if cards can do the trick. Indeed the safest road to Hell is the gradual oneā€”the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. " -C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

  1198. If you're smart enough to understand EA, the most effective EA is probably to keep the money for yourself until you have a reasonable investment prospect.

  1199. Thank you for trying to be an honest scientist in a corrupt system. Cleaning up corruption should not (hopefully will not) negatively impact your salary, assuming we can make any progress on this at all.
    14
  1200. I love the older videos where you guys cover some really interesting topic in-depth, but I also really liked the interpretations on current events like this episode, because either way it brings an interesting set of perspectives and I usually learn alot. I donā€™t know if thatā€™s helpful commentary but those are my thoughts.
    14
  1201. Simone your a better woman than I , I could not have made myself read that book šŸ‘
    14
  1202. There are a lot of "farm schools" in the UK, usually specialising in autistic kids. In principle, I approve of giving these kids are more rural environment to learn in, as I know I struggled with sensory overload a lot when I was a kid and the environment can make a huge difference. But most of these schools don't offer kids a proper education (alternative or conventional) and are essentially glorified daycare centres to keep the spacky kids out of the way.
    14
  1203. Shocking how similar my family (maternal side especially) is to Malcolmā€™s; Iā€™ve rarely encountered other such families, maybe because I grew up in New England. I have a Viking/Norman background, though, not Greater Appalachian.

  1204. God Bless the nation of Iran, one of the most important empires to exist from a Greek
    14
  1205. Have you guys had the opportunity to go on the tim cast irl show? Or is the travel to west va with the kids just too much to take on at this time? (If you do go on i think you have to both be there...not just one of you)
    14
  1206. Have you considered reaching out to Congressman David Schweikert? He seems to be one of the only people regularly broaching these subjects on the house floor, looking for solutions to the medicare/social security problem.
    14
  1207. Around 24:00, Simone said that she didn't think there was one French king who didn't have lovers of one kind or another. St. Louis IX and his father, Louis VIII, were both known to be faithful husbands, as well as good fathers. There were other such men in other lands. They were rare, but they were there.
    14
  1208. Religion is the starting point of most human culture. Now, we are training AI on the product of those human cultures. The idea that AI and religion mesh really well is not surprising.
    14
  1209. Elon Musk for the Dept of Govt Efficiency working with Scott Pressler...the brilliance and the passion of this new administration...in one Administration Department. Wow...that would be fun to watch. Pressler and Musk both had such key roles in President Trump winning...they are both TRUE patriotic Americans that make me feel good about our Future. God Bless!

  1212. Ā @SimoneandMalcolmĀ  ah yes. fellas, is it gay to checks notes look at girls? Glad you can appreciate a little humor! Great work as always with the research.
    14
  1213. I donā€™t think kids come up with long-term philosophies or inferences about the world or justice based on the kinds of punishment they get as kids. Thatā€™s one way I think trad parents put too much pressure on themselves - they think they are shaping a worldview every time they use discipline. But I do agree that if someone gives you unjust punishment it can undermine discipline because you wonā€™t care about their approval.
    14
  1214. Hereā€™s a followup question: why is it that paraphilias tend to supersede more typical attractions? Like ā€œIve consumed so much of Y that normal X just doesnā€™t arouse me anymore.ā€ Is it just strengthening certain neural pathways and letting others atrophy? I donā€™t imagine human sexuality atrophies when left alone, but maybe Iā€™m wrong.
    14
  1215. Your body, my choice. Forever.
    14
  1216. Beyond the endocrine disruptors, our modern sedentary lifestyle in the West (supercharged by covid) is probably messing up our hormones. Touch grass is not just about getting outside and see the real world. But also be more active. Take time out of your day for a walk or bike ride.
    14
  1217. So excited for this series! I thought American Nations was a fascinating take. The Catholic imagrants may have wiped out the Puritan strain in New England but I think some of it went west with the Latter-day Saints and would love to hear your take!
    14
  1218. This whole video showed me that if you are on the right you need to go into government at any level of bureaucracy to fight fire with fire
    14
  1219. I heard that Israel does have large apartments then average. 5 room is average, and 3 room(two bedroom and a living room) is hard to find. Also in the past when people used to live on farms with an extended family in a cramped house, there is still lots of room outside. So if you work mostly outside in the field, maybe it psychologically makes you feel that you have more room. You can also see exactly how much food youā€™re producing. I think also the issue with housing is also affected what people see around them. Like the cucumber and grape monkey experiment. So if on social media people have kids in nice houses, it makes it really difficult not to want and expect to need a house before having children.
    14
  1220. Climbing Everest is about showing two things, you are obsessed enough to climb Everest and you have enough money you can waste it climbing Everest. It is all about status.
    14
  1221. Is Malcom trying to talk me out of my pants?
    14
  1222. Yes I remember my Mexican grandmother got super mad at my mom for being on the pill (in the 90s). And they werenā€™t even ā€œpracticingā€ Catholics. Societal shaming really works. But itā€™s also a window to how bad of a sin Christians in general used to think contraception was.

  1223. Treat your woman the way you want your daughter to be treated. Plus the point about setting a healthy example. Gold!
    14
  1224. I just found you guys this week and I absolutely love your content! This is fantastic.
    14
  1225. Ā @tinyknottĀ  I mean this is true. I watched for a 2 year period after he got twitch banned. It was, for the most part, reasonable takes and somewhat insightful. Even though I'm voting for Trump I'm not "MAGA". I'm a huge RFK Jr and Elon supporter. But this hatred and belief that Trump is a monster or bad for Democracy is a complete fabrication and has no basis in reality.
    14
  1226. I would say "first," but that would be unoriginal, so instead: You don't approve? Well, too bad. We're in this for the species, boys and girls.

  1227. European rabbit issues stem from myxomatosis.
    14
  1228. The moral of the story around the 20 min mark: religious nerds split the reproductive difference between monks and religious normies.
    14
  1229. This issue is most noticeably pronounced in conversations about Stonewall. The ā€œqueerā€ Left keeps centering trans women like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera in the riot that led to the gay rights movement. Those people werenā€™t even there. Secondly, Marsha identified as a drag queen, not a trans woman. And there was no brick thrown. I donā€™t understand this desire to erase gay men from their own movement. Itā€™s bizarre.
    14
  1230. This is an issue with parasocial media model. It works well when it works, but when it doesn't it comes across as really weird. You guys avoid the problem by basically marketing your weirdness as the product.
    14
  1231. I love Simone so much, her facial expressions are hilarious. I wish she would talk more.
    14
  1232. I loved the quote, "The red yarn connecting these 2 attacks on our board of conspiracies is very thick" - we should all be that eloquent
    13
  1233. Malcom, I'm the same way. I had a hard start in many subjects. I started at the bottom of my class a lot of the time (English, Spanish, Geography). But then I frequently leapfrog my peers. I believe it's because I need wider foundations before making assumptions. Once I understand something, I typically understand it better than my peers and from more perspectives. This "phenomenon" has happened so frequently in my life, I have a term for it: convolutional collapse. It's like lightning seeking out a path. Once found there's instantaneous transformation. Malcolm, Simone balances your analytical energy very well, don't be afraid to give Simone more talking room. I think the two of you have great balance.
    13
  1234. I come for Malcom and Simone but stay for the baby.
    13
  1235. Leaflit???? Woah. Never thought they would cross over.

  1236. What's terrifying is getting Kamala ads in the middle of this video. "Existential threat to democracy" over and over again.

  1237. Weā€™re in big trouble guys.

  1238. [UK] 4:00 Norway funded Dustborn - as did the CIA. Neither is in the EU (although the mistake is understanable and your point is still valid). 35:20 Broadly, we in the UK and the EU have never had the level of democracy or political accountability which you used to have in the USA, until the ironically-named 'democrats' abandoned any pretence of democracy, honesty, or integrity. We come from previously monarchistic societies so tolerate a more centralised level of control (conversely, of course, a lot of our countries are smaller than most of your states). Nevertheless, the waste and corruption of national governments, and the unelected EU bureaucracy in particular, are a great cause of concern. [> UK politics specifically; it took until the 1960s for the labour party (our socialists/communists) to gain office. Since then we've more or less had to suffer them one term per generation just to prove to the kids how dangerous leftwing extremists can be, then we have another sane generation of centre/right rule. After Thatcher (and Major) we had Blair, who was the first evil labour leader - anti-democracy and anti-British as well as anti-capitalist. He completed the 'long march through the institutions' which meant that the succeeding generation of conservatives were prevented from doing anything useful by an extreme-left establishment - which refused to implement government policy - and biased media - which rewrites history to attack Britain and the British in every article and programme. With 12 years of complete failure, and 2 years of an active covid campaign of terror based on lies against the populace, almost no-one bothered to vote in our July election, which by default let labour in again, and they are already completing the authoritarian extreme-left destruction of the country and peoples. We have openly political police, persecuting political prisoners, and locking them in political prisons cleared of actual criminals released early to make way for them. The 'crimes' of these political prisoners range from mean words on social media to shouting at a police dog. Sentences are for 2 - 9 years].
    13
  1239. In normal d and d stories the really big guy is usually dumb and very loving or he is the leader and chivalrous in all his actions. This character is just a sensitive psychopath
    13
  1240. Fewer/less drives me nuts šŸ˜‚
    13
  1241. I unironically think South Parkā€™s decline in popularity (or at least the fact that it isnā€™t as big as it once was) has exacerbated this issue w/ wokeism/urban monoculture. Every single issue w/ society today has at least 1 or 2 South Park episodes dealing with the exact issue. It was easy 15 years ago to call someone ā€œCartmanā€ and that would end the shitty behavior, but now that SP isnā€™t part of the mainstream culture anymore we canā€™t really do that and expect it to work. South Park started to decline around 2017, not coincidentally the start of this whole mess.
    13
  1242. The part about the Japanese parents telling their children they didn't love them straight up made me laugh out loud šŸ˜†
    13
  1243. Holy crap! I never realized how much I was raised in Puritan - Back Woods traditions until watching this.
    13
  1244. i appreciate that you guys are trying to stay based (see what i did there?) and called out fake or exaggerated news on both sides.
    13
  1245. The fact that no learning takes place is also an issue, and they are unsafe cesspools.
    13
  1246. I don't want facial recognition in hiring at the moment, because as a conservative Englishman most places in the UK would never hire me šŸ’€
    13
  1247. Discussion on "Internet Damage to Men/Boys vs. Women/Girls" deserves a full episode. I agree w/ Malcom's take (the "female redpill" includes like 75% of women, the "male redpill" is much smaller in size), but I understand Simone's lack of agreement, because we don't have concrete statistics on how prevalent/popular the Red Pill is amongst men (something I have trouble finding but I'm sure you 2 brainiacs could do better than I).
    13
  1248. Same thing is happening in Toronto, just slightly slower
    13
  1249. Oh my heart, your boys! I have four bright sons with autism and was given a lot of push-back when I pulled them out of school. I had heard that un-schoolers had better results than public-schoolers, so I figured it was all upside. No surprise they're thriving at home. I do teach them, but I focus on reading, writing and math. They are given a lot of (supervised!) freedom to explore their own ways.
    13
  1250. Same is happening in the Californian colonized areas of Washington state.
    13
  1251. Dave Filoni directed the Clone Wars, Rebels, Ahsoka, etc. I think the reason that Clone Wars was enjoyable is because he was less established and more people had say in it. However, even during the Clone Wars era, Filoni showed that he had zero respect for cannon. As Filoni became more respected, he gained more overall control with fewer people pushing back against his ideas. That's often when things go to crap. One reason that The Empire Strikes Back is such a good movie is because it had a strong minded director working under Lucas who wasn't just a yes man.
    13
  1252. Consequences didn't seem to teach us right from wrong though as a species. Every culture had ways of determining whether a child was valuable to society or not and those who failed were expendable often enough for us to hear about today. Hyper prudishness seemed to be the lie we told ourselves.
    13
  1253. This is very very encouraging to know!šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘ I appreciate you guys sharing this mini documentary of the involvement of Scott Presler a true conservative gay guy with a heart of gold for this country we proudly call our home! My hat off to his valuable & massive contribution and so many more Iā€™m not aware of in this election by name šŸ—³ļø We owe our deep gratitude to all who contribute one way or another advancing the cause for Trump/VancešŸ‘ŠšŸ¼it took everyoneā€™s efforts to win this, we did it for us, we did it for liberty & freedom for all, we are the inclusive party to all AmericansšŸ«µ we defeated the beast now is time to do away with the rest of our adversaries and they are many, by the grace of God we will restored everything that was stolen from us and we will have our country back thriving again in the highest scale of prosperity and security!

  1255. Off topic, baby (sorry forgot her name) has activated 2 new abilities since the last video.
    13
  1256. I love the idea of DOGE. I also think the dissolving department model could be used for an accounting and audit team. Every specified time period (just going to base this off quarterly model, though a different one could work also), the team forms, goes to each major department checks the books, makes and submits said reports to oversight committee/dept/etc, then dissolves until the next quarter. On the topic of ADD/ADHD types, its all about playing to our strengths. Some psychology professionals also believe it should be rebranded to Intention Deficit Disorder. This is because many, like myself, suffer from executive type dysfunctions. We function best in groups and pairs with a Neuro-Typical type to gently nudge us back if we get distracted. We also tend to love "pressure cooker" situations. Give us a near deadline and let 'er rip. "You're going to be here in 3hrs?!" Starts nonstop furiously cleaning. Game-ify tasks, give us challenging benchmark goals...society has become so cookie cutter that we are often not using our best assets, playing to each others strengths and covering each others weaknesses in team building. Harness us, we have a superpower!!

  1257. TDS is real.
    13
  1258. The Kino Casino reading of the Destiny Discord leaks is simultaneously the most degenerate and funniest thing I've ever heard.

  1259. Oh My God! That's disgusting! Where?
    13
  1260. Where's the baby?
    13
  1261. What is the childcare situation at Natalcon? Do children and babies need seperate tickets?
    13
  1262. I love Scott Pressler!
    13
  1263. Malcom legit wants to take over the world. šŸ˜‚ Iā€™m kinda here for it.

  1264. Scott is a freaking American hero!!

  1265. When can we add Trump's face to Mount Rushmore šŸ¤”
    13
  1266. Anyone who argues non herititism in dogs is wrong, stupid and biased. as a dog fosterer who has had lurchers, border collies, a red spaniel, an English springer, a labrador, Labradoodle, schnauzer - they are innately so so different and very much in line with their breed traits.
    13
  1267. Isn't the first "action" of that game the main character trying to cancel and ruin some other friends life for literally no reason?
    13
  1268. Malcolm and Simone are the strongest case for assortative mating I have ever seen. They look like perfect male and female versions of each other and their personalities are pretty in-sync. I've even seen comments where people think they're brother and sister, lol.
    13
  1269. They love each other but do they love me a random commenter looking to boost them in the algorithm.
    13
  1270. No thanks. We have our own wives already.
    13
  1271. Agreed. It wonā€™t solve any of the underlying issues. Iā€™m married had two kids and live in Japan. The biggest issue is that men often donā€™t make enough money to find a spouse. Even one married now both spouses have to work in order to have a household. Menton work insane amount of hours. Which puts almost all the child rearing burden on the women. So most people opt to have one or two kids. So yeah this Apple do nothing. I made it might make a small jump of a couple thousand extra births a year, but thatā€™s nothing compared to what should be a million births a year.
    13
  1272. 'Reading' is pronounced 'Redding' by the way
    13
  1273. It really does. The only issue with today's work culture is how atomized it is. Family business means the family runs it, so men, women, young, old working. The pill is an issue in over prescription and run-off, but microplasics and processed food do the same.
    13

    13
  1276. The feast day of the Annuciation (when Christ was conceived in the Virgin's wom) is also nine months before Christmas on March 25th. Our earliest record of the Annuciation feast came when the calendar system of Anno Domini (AD) was first introduced by Dionysius Exiguus in AD 525, and March 25th was the beginning of the new year since the era of grace began with the Incarnation of Christ. The Annuciation was marked as a major feast that could be celebrated during Lent. Then, for the next THOUSAND YEARS, March 25th was the beginning of the new year until some nations began moving it to Jan 1st in the 16th century. The fact that taxes are still due on April 1st is actually a holdover from this old system.
    13
  1277. A good example of cultural groups moving into places like back home are the Scandinavians moving into the swampy cold of the upper middwest.
    13
  1278. 4:20 It is because you violate expectations due to your appearance. You look dramatically more leftoid than right, and most traditionalists are obsessed with stereotypical depictions of masculinity in particular. I don't share their opinion since I believe that the left does not own the geek look, but that is what you are seen as. Don't take this the wrong way; I am just the messenger.
    13
  1279. It's pretty simple. Human beings were never designed for an easy life. We require struggle to find meaning.
    13
  1280. naming your son Octavian, i very much approve, he'll be a high achiever.
    13
  1281. Your math has a flaw! There are a bunch of migrants living here in Germany who support the AfD (Alternative fĆ¼r Deutschland) too! They are as repulsed by the criminal behaviour of specific asylum seekers as the native Germans!
    13
  1282. I'd say FTL: Faster Than Light is an indie game that has quite a bit of lore. It's a rogue-lite in a science fiction setting, and there's quite a bit of lore, although it's scattered over a bunch of random events and so it takes a lot of replays to get a sense of it.
    13
  1283. Been basically pure white since I was 40. I love it, especially bc my white hair is so much thicker, but it doesnā€™t look as cool on women as on men, sadly. Some men like it, some prefer I dye it. I had cool streaks since 30. Very common in my family.
    13
  1284. A video on Wicca you say? I look forward to that. I once tried to point out some of the history to someone, but I lost track of my receipts.
    13
  1285. Right through Xmas huh, you two are dedicated. It's literally Dec 25, 2024 at 5:14am PT and I'm at 11 minutes ago time (I hate ago time make date timestamps great again).

  1286. Tsundere President who actually takes care of the country but acts like they hate their people.
    13
  1287. Sigh there are times when I find out too much, too fast, and I just want to turn my mind off and live in blissful ignorance. This is one of those times! I wonā€™t actually do that, thoughā€¦ I just need a minute. God, this is insane!
    13
  1288. Does this pattern hold for other Islamic countries? I feel like many Iranians might conflate the economic failure of the country with the failure of the religion, which seems mostly a result of sanctions to me.
    13
  1289. It will also increase because of legacy admissions, which does not exist in most countries outside of the US. We don't have that where I live, but we also have people ghostwriting doctoral theses for others for high 5-figure sums, so if one doesn't cut it to get even the entry, then the incentive rises even further to cheat later on. Depending on the name of the applicant there will be notably less scrutiny when judging the work either, I still remember a professor publicly ranting how "he decides who is a doctor" after a donation scandal.
    13
  1290. You've really got me wondering... What if Hollywood was more autistic? How about politics? What if certain faiths were? What would be the hallmarks of a more autist run education system? And if it had happened back when, how might any of this have created a different America? It's like a new alternate history subgenre... Neuro Alt Hist? ...and now I need those novels.

    13
  1293. Ever notice how Simoneā€™s job in the conversation seems to be to focus on the individual and rationale for the leftā€™s theory of mind while Malcom insists on focusing on generalizations and abstracts regarding the topic. Doesnā€™t that make Simone more based than Malcom?

  1295. Growing up in Massachusetts, my best friend was a Catholic (one of 5 siblings), from a very devout family. Dad worked at a bank, mom worked as a nurse. The dad came out as gay when the kids were grown & became SUPER leftist/urban monoculture.
    12
  1296. This is random but the monkey& primate anamorphic characters, are usually villains in the stories that they do exist in.. The dragon stuff usually has a character start out as a snake, and grow into dragons..also, snakes have certain sex traits lol.. But I think it's the metaphor of what a dragon represents that people are attracted to.
    12
  1297. Game design in general has become much more reliant on indy development. Big AAA studios have been really dropping the ball lately so a self funded design is going to be your best bet at getting this thing made. Also, I volunteer for the interview! I'll also send a mail to this effect.

  1301. The Bible says: Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. I think this is very parallel to what you're saying about sex - if you seek pleasure in sex, it will become dust and ash, but if you seek to please God, your spouse, and be fruitful and increase in number, you will be fulfilling the purpose of sex, and it will be joyful. C. S. Lewis also talks a lot about this in The Four Loves!

  1304. I'm more lefterly than both of you but i still love what you talk about and your approach because of Jonathan Haidt. People are moral intuitionist animals. You two seem to get that part right. The rationalism has to rest on top of the understanding that people are controlled by their moral passions, and their minds work to retrospectively justify that, and that is also where extremism comes from
    12
  1305. President Brigham Young (1801ā€“77) said: ā€œThe worst fear that I have about [members of this Church] is that they will get rich in this country, forget God and his people, wax fat, and kick themselves out of the Church and go to hell. This people will stand mobbing, robbing, poverty, and all manner of persecution, and be true. But my greater fear for them is that they cannot stand wealth; and yet they have to be tried with richesā€ (quoted in Preston Nibley, Brigham Young: The Man and His Work [1936], 128).

  1309. Good video guys. My only gripe with the Southern aristocracy chapter is that you didnā€™t factor in their European heritage as much. There were strong cultural variances within European groups. Aristocratic women of Anglo (English) descent tended to select spouses more based on looks than anything else. Aristocratic women of German descent were often more pragmatic, valuing practical skills. The French were a bit more concerned with fashion and status. In high school, I had to go through correspondence from the aristocracy of the time, and it was pretty interesting, so it turned into a pet project. One could almost instantly guess the ancestry of the author based on their writing style. Aristocratic women of English descent wrote a myriad of details regarding the spouseā€™s physical traits (e.g., ā€œhis golden hair,ā€ etc.). Aristocratic women of German descent often wrote more about their spouseā€™s achievements. Aristocratic women of French descent wrote extensively about the spouseā€™s clothes and such (e.g., what fancy pelt he obtained to make a garment).

  1310. I love her because she's fun and cute. I probably watch 2-3 videos of her per week. And it's usually when I'm burned out on the negativity of the right. She had a role and the idea middle aged men like myself don't like her is a joke. I don't want Ben Shapiro rambling about a movie he never likes sucks. I much rather hear her talk about it.

  1315. Also, to any agents reading these chat messages: Read some Oswald Spengler. You guys think you're justified in your nonsense because you're agents of the most prosperous regime ever in humanity, but you didn't do that, technologists did that. Anywhere that wasn't dumb enough to go for communism, or unfortunate enough to be valuable to the west if they remained as a poor country (i.e. banana republics generalized), would experience incredible growth once they adopt the miracles of our hypertechnology. Fertilizer, medicine, transportation, communication. All these things were made by science, not federal bureaucrats. You are mistaking being born into a miraculous development with being part of the development. You are not protectors of the prosperous world order, you're at best symbiotic parasites, at worst pure parasites, to the mechanisms that brought it into being. You guys have an understanding of the world and the future we're heading towards similar to that of the economists who said "There's no way housing can crash" in 2006. You've mythologized the status quo and refuse to look at the markers indicating that everything is about to change. And we're currently in 2007, soon we'll be in 2008. Buckle up buckaroo, it's gonna be a wild ride.

  1323. I expected to be triggered by this episode (gay man here) but I find myself mostly agreeing with your position. I would like to argue that repression of sexuality can be far more dangerous than the sexual act itself. We see this with abusive preists and the countless young mens lives that these predators have destroyed. I find it reprehensible to imply that a preist/pdf file is morally superior to an out homosexual. I believe it is important to live truthfully. Lying to yourself and others about fundamental truths about ourselves is immoral and harmful to everyone.

  1327. My favourite read on this comes from ShoeOnHead. Her read was that Barbie ended up becoming a "Political Rorschach Test". Basically, the movie was genuinely written to be pro-feminist, but was written by midwit dunderheads who botched the writing so bad that every single message came out all bad and wrong. The arguments of the movie lacked any consistency or cogency, that in the process of trying to parse the dialogue every viewer will misinterpret the uninterpretable through their own biases. Basically, in truth it's neither a duck nor a rabbit because it's too terrible a picture of either to definitively say what it is. Honestly, you can just ask someone what they got out of the movie and instantly get insite into their political views.

  1329. As a german (that also see germany not head in a good direction): What should I tell my kids? "Hey our culture sucks, look at (Isreal, USA etc) they are better than us". Thats would be right but it feels not right. But Malcom is right from my perspectiv. Most of my friends and other people I met here in germany are very weak. They live in a fantasy land. They have no kids, no purpose. And they don't understand how easily we can get rid of all our wealth and security... Winter is coming.

  1330. @19:30 save your energy Malcolm, there is no woman more stubborn than a black woman. Let them have their 4B movement. This feminism is only popular in the west. African families still do arranged marriages and care about family.

  1331. You guys have stated what your really want is not more people, but more people who can help humanity ascend to an Omega Point civilization. You want people like you who can assist in advancing AI, genetic modification, cybernetic implants, other robotics, and space travel. But this video exactly shows how you are refusing to say the quiet part out loud: If you really care about long-term trends, look at population increase inside countries over the last 100 years. That is true long-term. The quiet part you refuse to address is that in many countries that have no prospect of contributing to any of your goals, the population over the last hundred years has increased by a factor of 6 or more, so that countries that were below 20 million in 1924 are now well over 100 million. If a country is not advanced technologically, this 6x increase in population was completely unnecessary, because advances in agriculture over the past 100 years require far fewer than 6x. And if they are not contributing inside their country to advance technology and other production of actual goods, there is no place for them to go than to go to other countries, such as those of the West. See how this is the quiet part that makes all appeals to pro-natalism sound like the rantings of lunatics. Until you convince people that the Earth at the moment does not have 6x the people it should have, you cannot win the argument for pro-natalism. And this is compounded by the belief that AI and robotics that will make 3/4 of jobs obsolete is right around the corner.

  1332. Iā€™m sure yā€™all know this already, but it bears repeatingā€¦ words are VERY important. As a result I canā€™t help but think that there is a better phrase to describe this practice as parents than ā€œlow effort parenting.ā€ Perhaps ā€œminimal intervention parentingā€ or something akin to that? I have no doubt that between the two of you, and the rest of the audience, we can come up with a terminology that is both more precise and equally succinct.

  1334. Having lived my childhood as an only child in the city, I can confidently say that i would give anything to live the life that my children are living right now in our rural slice of heaven. Our nearest neighbors are a mile away and they can play as loudly as they please, all the time, every day, out in nature where they are watched from afar by me and their grandfather (at least some of the time, when he's up to it). There are no bad days here, no weather too foul, no strangers, and neighbors a short drive away who have a trampoline. It's a paradise for children to grow up knowing the wonders of life, nature, and a caring community. Seeing my toddlers play with the neighbors' older children is a wonderful preview of things to come.
    12
  1335. Ā @claudeyazĀ  for me itā€™s far deeper than economic reasons but on a surface level that would be a major factor. The primary reasons have to do with the flaws of many leftist ideologies that at best are idealistic and at worst out of touch with reality with devastating consequences. I could write an entire dissertation about it but this channel actually doesnā€™t a pretty good job of explaining it as they describe it as a ā€œmonocultureā€ Almost harkons back to the unibomber when he discusses leftist feelings of inferiority and oversocialization. I could go on and I must say I donā€™t speak for a majority of black Americans. But Iā€™m sure many can relate to me. Especially all of my coworkers who are all types from black to Hispanic. Not a single one of us is voting for Kamala.

  1337. Catholic here. You're on point about the reemerging relevance in a proper theological urderstanging instead of a mere "obey your supperiors" ethics. But that's comming since 1960's, but the more conservative side of the Church is slower to incorporate that in practice - even if they're against the liberalism of the Council, they in practice are making efforts to teach the Faith to their children that would be unheard of during 1950s and some decades priori.
    12
  1338. The things that actually benefit society are all to do with peaceful cooperation between people. i.e. freedom - rule of law - property rights - freedom of speech - free markets - sound money Christianity during 1600-1910 was just the best at preserving these values hence it seems like Christianity caused the European and American prosperity. All of these concepts are understandable by LOGIC, no mysticism is needed at all. Yet as we know human beings are not always rational and believe all sorts of nonsense despite all the evidence to the contrary. I would say at least 60% of any population have a SLAVE mindset rather than a MASTER mindset and so in the rise and fall of civilisations we see that in the ascendency, the people with the MASTER mindset, set the rules and this results in a huge expansion of private wealth. This unfortunately leads to weakness and people with SLAVE mindsets slowly start to change the rules to benefit them. This then leads to a peak and decline in private wealth whilst the foundations of society are undermined by government policy more and more until there is simply no private wealth left. We call this the rise and fall of empires. Just sad to see it happening to us in real time.

  1340. 17:19 ā€œIā€™m going to propose a fourth type of friend is a, weā€™ll say culture friend.ā€ Simoneā€™s culture friend concept explains the phenomenon of when two expats from the same or similar countries meet each other abroad. Like for example a Canadian and an Australian who meet together in China and form a friendship over being Westerners. I do agree with Malcolm itā€™s very similar to a hybrid of one of the other friend types with character reinforcing friend. Iā€™m not sure if itā€™s necessary for it to be its own type, especially if the current model allows for someone to be multiple types simultaneously already.

  1341. Malsom & Simon, You both have missed a very important point. These activists and their pet Federal supervisors/managers not only diverted the most cryptographically secure National Security bandwidth for non-national security related tasks. They created a "hostile work environment" for straight and non-trans gay employees under Federal sexual harassment laws, rules, regulations and agency procedures. Federal managers have a positive legal obligation to act against sexual harassment and discrimination upon awareness. The Federal intelligence managers only failed to meet that legal obligation. They actively promoted a "hostile work environment" above the national security mission in agency policy documents with their signatures on them. All of the various intelligence agency supervisors and managers who had awareness of these sexting chat rooms, and promoted agency blogs where activists were expressing their gender identities, have "dead careers walking." Every member of national intelligence supervision "with awareness" - given the signed agency policy documents, that is all of them - can now be fired for cause both as ineffective managers of expensive, cryptographically secured, national intelligence bandwidth and as supervision who failed in their legal duties to act against sexual harassment under Federal sexual harassment laws, rules, regulations and agency procedures. While theses supervisors and managers can sue to get their jobs back under the Hatch act after U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) administrative appeals are exhausted. These soon to be ex-Federal intelligence supervision and their lawyers face a "Catch 22." That is, the managers and their lawyers will know the defending Trump Administration federal attorneys have wholly admissible blackmail evidence waiting for them - the details of what was said on those chat channels and how DEI was used to shut up whistle-blowers. And if they go to court, their names will be forever associated with the transcripts of the chat channels which will always be an new job application internet work history search away. I expect few, if any, would ever find work again as managers.

  1345. If the GOP plays it's cards right with the coalition cabinet, engineer/tech alliance, & turbo charge the Scott Praesler strategy in all states, then it could become an American analogue to the Japanese LDP. The Japanese LDP is the main right wing party of Japan, AND the big tent party there. They're so big that they have several standing sub factions within the party & other parties largely play the role of coalition checks. If the GOP continues to grow, then I can see how ranked choice voting could be used to promote greater competition against the Dems or whoever replaces them.

  1348. Just a quibble: Haiti owes lots of money to American banks, though this is money borrowed since WWII (ie not due to its payment to France when Haiti bought it's independence in 1804). This current onerous debt is due to poor Haiti governance. Compare their performance to the adjoining Dominican Republic.
    12
  1349. 15:01 the two conservatives modes: ā€˜individualistā€™ and ā€˜fascistā€™. May I suggest that instead of a conservative / liberal spectrum you switch to the three telos model? Three telos model is a triangular spectrum with liberty, equality and fraternity on each point. Youā€™ve correctly split ā€˜conservatismā€™ into fraternity (which becoems fascist at the extreme) and liberty (individualism, pluralism).

  1353. Also re nightclubs (speaking with professional experince for two decades). Here's my take one why people enjoy them (including me): - Not all nightclub experiences are the same. There is a big range from Top 40 / pick-up bar, to a dance-oriented night club, to more of a concert/venue style night club. So you might have just been in a terrible place. But I think you also don't have an affinity to the things that make them desirable to some people. - Nightclubs are one of the few places to hear and dance to certain types of music (electronic music / Hip hop). If you like music that falls into those umbrellas, you might be more disposed to enjoying them - Nightclubs are one of the few places where you can coordinate a large group of friends going to the same place without booking reservations. This is big in large cities where there is a huge coordination tax due to limited space and high demand. Your 1 bedroom New York or Toronto apartment can't hold a party well, and booking a restaurant reso for 25 people isn't realistic. Meeting up at a nightclub is one solution. - To Simone's point, group dance has a very unique effect on some people. It's incredibly grounding and restorative to some people. Most times, people go to dance with friends, not with strangers. So dancing with groups of friends is extremely bonding (for some people). Meeting people / stangers is only some people's motivation - Picking up - Dancing is sometimes a vertical expression of a horizontal desire. This is definitely a component of nightclub culture, but the type of nightclub really comes into it. A top 40 club is very pick-up oriented. A rave/electronic night club is usually more dance/drugs oriented. Different clubs serve different niches - Drug use - Nightclub are synomonous with drug use, because many drugs are enhanced by music. Also if you really love some types of music, drug use allows you to listen/dance longer than normal - People with ADHD are usually over represented in long-term nightclub enjoyment. The music/lights/people/chaos is highly stimulating. - Extroversion is over represented in long-term nightclub enjoyment. - There is definitely a social narrative of nightclubs being part of a "big night out" or of something that you're supposed to enjoy when young. A lot of people hate night-clubs for the reasons you mentioned, but love music festivals or DYI music events because they remove some of the rough edges.

  1354. My parents never told me or my siblings Santa was real because my mom thought the rugpull of telling us he isnā€™t would undermine our faith. We still had Santa imagery all over the house and did all the Christmasy stuff, but just thought of Santa as a cute legend.
    12
  1355. I think Malcolm fits into the Harry Potter, Flint Lockwood kind of crush, where he's very nerdy, kind of quirky, but is goal-oriented, stylish, or at least keeps himself put together. I think that is a lot of nerdy women's fantasy.

  1362. I'm what we call a "cultural Catholic" from a catholic majority country and I completely agree with the point at 2:00 . We just don't care about the Church, we mildly care about the church buildings, and we appreciate the positive cultural traits. The most fanatical catholics come from populations under Protestant and/or forced atheist rule. Also, the most anti-catholic bigotry starts with "I was in catholic school" or "my family was very catholic". Anti-religious sentiment and religious zealotry are both functions() of oppression.

It's rare that I read non-fiction books to completion, I usually just read one or two chapters, and when I picked the Pragmatist's Guide I couldn't stop reading it. Changed my life for the better, if you value making good choices this is the book for you.

Also would be interested in your B Side conversations.
    11
  1368. Right on. One of the worst offenders on this issue was Stefan Molyneux (when he was on YT), who somehow found ways to blame just about every evil in the world on child spanking/physical punishment. Kind of like Chomsky blaming every evil in the world on the USA. It was absolutely pathetic. Now, we have never spanked or physically punished our three children (now aged 14. 12, and 9), but as you say, that is based on specificities of the children's capacity to understand right from wrong via other means, and not all children are able to do that. Very good video.

Although, drones designed to deliver "small" targeted nukes probably aren't far behind.

When it's not airing, they can live how they want, but when it's airing they have to stay in character enough that the show doesn't get canceled, cause if it gets canceled they Die because the character stop existing.. And then 1 day they get ready to act out the script, and the script is blank, so here goes all the emotional drama of the character is now having to write their own script, and battle answering keeping the show from being canceled, well also not betraying their own morals and their own relationships in the group
    11
  1388. The biggest hurdle isn't the international backlash, it's the fact that the Palestinians are so unbelievably radicalized that no country, Arab/Muslim or not, wants them. Jordan took in some a while back and they immediately tried to overthrow the government and the king. Egypt is overcrowded and has an unstable regime. The Saudis are trying to modernize and cooperate with the Israelis against Iran while also maintaining the royal dynasty. No one wants them. Maybe Syria? But that would just create the same problem that already exists, just to the north instead of the south.
    11
  1389. sex indeed doesn't matter. The only important benefits of sex are to have children or to help find and bond with the woman you're having children with. Otherwise it's nothing but an enjoyable feeling like eating a steak or jumping on a bouncy castle. I wish I had realised this earlier. Chasing after sterilised, pointless infertile sex that will never lead to children is as evolutionarily mal-adjusted as compulsively eating sugar and becoming obese. In the future humans will probably have a stronger innate drive to have children and be less interested in casual, sterilised sex with contraceptives because those people without a strong drive to make certain they reproduce will get wiped out by the liberalism sterilisation meme.

Higher prenatal testosterone means higher dimorphism in males especially in the face: wider jaw, chin project, large skull and moreā€¦ Andrew lacks all of that, his brow ridge isnā€™t very prominent

  1405. I escaped the University of North Texas with a 2.7 GPA, when my GPA leaving high school was 3.8. I attended a community college for two years, and my GPA remained stable, but as soon as I arrived at a "respected, prestigious" college like UNT, I was deep-throated with woke indoctrination. My studies had nothing to do with my degree. It was seriously all women's studies and critical GAY theory. I just gave up. I love Trump for giving the universities what they deserve.

  1409. There's also the ugly fact that crossing means paying cartels a transit fee. People chose to pay thousands to criminals instead of hundreds to do it the legal way.
    11
  1410. It is undesirable to have a submissive, overly-dependent daughter in the way that Tate is inadvertently raising his daughter. I think his friend, Justin Waller, also the father of a toddler-daughter has a more modern, balanced view in that Waller thinks women should learn a skill, should enter the workforce but also be cognizant that women are not on the same reproductive timeline as men.
    11
  1411. Simone is realist. I like it. I appreciate it. There is nothing terrible about humility. Itā€™s sweet that Malcom is so adoring of her and her talents.
    11
  1412. Simone would be the perfect crime boss . And Malcolm is the perfect enforcer

  1413. [8:10] OMG, I had to fact-check that! It is true that the kkkk hunted all 3 groups!

  1414. I needed this so bad. Ironically this information will probably mean I don't find a wife as I shift my life mission to something outside of myself, but as long as I can leave the world a better place for people like you and your progeny that's ok with me.
    11
  1415. I love the mentioning of "becoming better than your members of your family." This wasn't explicit within my family, but as the youngest of 4 I always would use my older siblings as a benchmark for my own potential at their age. So I was always comparing myself to people better and older than me, which forced me to become better in a shorter amount of time. Now I would definitely say that I'm one of the more successful people in my immediate family.

  1419. I grew up in Chicago in a working class neighborhood. Although I went to a private school there were still many good public schools. Now though, youā€™d be insane to send your kids to CPS. I donā€™t know anyone who had kids and stayed in the city .

  1420. Your production speed is faster than Mohammed Farah at 10 minutes to dusk on the first day of Ramadan running from a metric Daniel's pit worth of lions playing flutes.

  1421. Malcolm, "you've" done it again. Thinking out of the box. This is the 2nd video I've watched on this channel. I must say I love your wife's thought process and her calming effect. You two seem nicely matched!
    11
  1422. Door knocking has basically no effect anymore on membership. My wife who has been a Jehova's Witness for 40 years has never, once converted someone by door knocking.
    11
  1423. I wonder if the urban monoculture reduces fertility in part because it lowers cultural pride and patriotism? The most religious Mormon might lose pride whilst chasing perfectionism. Lowest religious might be disengaged with their culture though lack of contact. And the middle group might be the happiest to have the Mormon badge without over thinking it. I've also noticed that countries with high cultural pride and patriotism tend to assimilate immigrates better and have better fertility. USA vs UK for example.
    11
  1424. I think you two would have a great conversation with Steven Pynakker from Mormon Book Reviews. He is an evangelical Christian who knows a lot about Mormonism and loves to hear a lot of perspectives from very faithful Mormons, progressive Mormons, Ex-Mormons, and many outsiders with various different ideas.
    11
  1425. First time commenting on anything, but really loving these conversations between you two! I first saw Simone on the MMM podcast with Louise Perry. Then Malcolm on Modern Wisdom with Chris Williamson today. I love what you all are trying to do to prevent population collapse and appreciate the attempt at trying to find some secular ways forward. Really validating, the idea that the generative ideas come from the fringe groups. I have some friends that unironically use 4chan regularly and we have conversations about 4chan originating memes all the time. It's such a massive contrast to people who if I even mention 4chan in a conversation, immediately become alarmed at the notion of any "normal" person using the platform. The fact that certain ideas can become "tainted" just by virtue of where it came from always struck me as odd. I have many liberal/left-leaning friends where I can explain a right-leaning idea to them, and as long as it's devoid of any particular notion of "right-wingness" they're perfectly able to engage with the idea on the merits. But if I were to say something like "(insert right-wing figure here) said xyz" the conversation immediately becomes impossible because "right-wing = bad." Very stifling to conversation as I feel like I'm spending more time with rhetoric, trying to make my communication palatable to an audience, than actually discussing ideas and their implications. Is this a necessary evil in discourse? Or is this just a "get better friends who can engage" kind of deal? Bit of a tangent, but still curious. It just seems so counter to what I expected "intellectual culture" to be like, why is any topic off the table? Again thanks for the public discussions, definitely gonna be reading your books in the coming weeks.
    11
  1426. This may be the most based video of Malcolm
    11
  1427. I was having a conversation with friends in Beijing recently around his key insight that the vast majority of childless women grieve not having children. Our solution to this is for the men to lead with a vision of being a father so the women they are with can envision being a mother.
    11
  1428. Simone and Malcolm have quality over quantity, a niche market, which is a good rule for life.

  1430. So, we aren't going to discuss the over 750 overseas military bases? The decades long development and canceled billions of dollars procurement programs? The "humanity" programs that never reach the targeted populations in Africa? I think every level of government spending suffers from the same disease as homelessness and drug awareness charities; if they worked, if they ended the problems, their existence comes to an end.

  1433. There has to be a connection between the number of distinct words you can use in a statement on a subject, and how ideologically captured you are on that subject. In high school, premodern Internet, late 90s, I would be talking to a friend about history class, and then I would relate that to our football team, whom the person and I were on, and they would go from all of these observations to ā€œwe have one of the best teams in the stateā€œ. Certain topics can be a way to just seize upon someoneā€™s cognitive faculties. The ā€œbrain rotā€ describes seems to be social engineering over the Internet, kicking this tendency into overdrive.

  1439. Yeah Atwood wrote the book to criticize Reagan and the moral majority. She did not expect all this other stuff that came from the show
    10
  1440. Thanks for all your work. Always great to see the two of you.
    10
  1441. Found you on side scrollers and have been enjoying a bit of your content. I decided to write a comment because I think I have at least some sort of answer to one of your kind of questions, You were talking about how a lot of Republicans and people generally on the right are focusing on this as a debate when instead of the important issue of "who's actually running this country if that's the elected official". I think a big part of the reason for that which I don't recall you mentioning, is that for a lot of the people on the right, That's not a new question, That's not news, I know that myself who's mostly centrist my parents who are on the right and most of my friends who are also generally libertarian or centrist, have known that Biden wasn't running the country for 2 or 3 years now, since we saw him wandering off stage and wandering past secret service agents instead of going through the door that they were holding open for him, we've all known that he hasn't been in charge, we've all been pretty sure that Kamala isn't in charge, And that's just a question that we've been living with, some of us think that China is some of us think that the wef is some of us think that it's a deep state cabal. Some of us think that it's a cabal of leftist bureaucrats as you hypothesized and many of us just believe that it's some chaotic mess of all of the above. I'm not saying it's at all unimportant, I'm just saying that it wouldn't surprise me if to some degree. The reason why it's not being featured and centered as an object of the news is because for us the only new thing about it is, some of the Democrats have realized what we've already known to be true by observation.

  1442. That title is an extremely difficult sentence to parse. 20 years ago it would have been part of a South Park episode or something.

  1443. 7:45 well said. The red pill aesthetic is like a side quest. Guys treat it like the destination

  1444. I'm an atheist conservative. I voted Trump in the last three elections. This is bigger than religious beliefs, this is about America's future.
    10
  1445. 7:55 Malcolm's face tells the whole story
    10
  1446. I watch because you guys are smart and give different perspectives from regular media, i get surprised often by your takes. And i like listening to people that live a lifestyle that want to live.

  1453. Severe exhaustion like this woman had sounds more like a mitochondrial issue than a side effect of say, herpes or some condition acquired by raw milk consumption. Pesticide or herbicide exposure on the farm is something to look at. Women who have had multiple children are more at risk bc they've burned their internal rare mineral stores for their children, like molybdenum, which is key for certain detox pathways. Or Selenium as a cofactor for so many things in the body especially thyroid activity

    10
  1457. I'd just like to take a moment to remind everyone that the 'pop' in pop culture/music, etc. which has become shorthand for shallow and disposable is also short for popular. This, I think, leans into Malcolm's theory that (industrial) capitalism optimizes immediate/short-term gratification over long term sustainability because it implies that in order to make something popular (that is market it to the broadest possible common denominator) you have to strip it of all deeper substance. (Which might also help explain why this channel only has 6.45k subs. Seriously, what is this world coming to? ;P)
    10
  1458. These two are way younger and hipper than I, really enjoy their conversations.

  1459. If Trump isn't racist then why does he hang out with Chabad Lubavitch?
    10
  1460. I'm Jewish in the heart of tech and super liberal area (though I'm an ideas fanatic, so I have friends across the political spectrum). I love friends and networking which has been a business super power especially in tech. I generally seek out interesting people in science, tech, business, finance or anyone who has done deep study in various areas from farming to archeology. Some of these friends get promoted to family status -- that is, they are over all the time, vacation together, looked after each other's kids when necessary etc. At the same time, family is a priority -- we go to events, try to help each other, and frequently invite them to Shabbat and other occasions. I guess if you want a hunker down culture to survive whatever wave you think is coming, yeah stay in family or tight clan. To me, I'm driven by curiosity of the world and a wider net catches more things. You might say that now, you can get anything online for from your local friendly AI agent, but my life and business has been transformed at various points by just experiencing someone operate in a different way that just makes me realize at a deeper level "Oh, you can do that? Wow!". It does make me think that maybe you want to tune an AI agent in the culture you want to propagate (for me, that would be literate, curious, learning, business-oriented, risk-taking but also prudent -- save, invest, and keeping the tribe going). That way, the net you'd cast online is biased by that filter.
    10
  1461. That idea for the "internet spirits" would probably be a real hit

  1464. Malcolm showed up for a debate. Dan showed up for a nice conversation. I enjoyed watching whatever this was. šŸ˜‚
    10
  1465. 24:00 Given that it IS legal to violently confront someone in the act of committing a lethally violent crime ( iirc ), if someone's direct actions could end with a person dying how far into the theoretical future could confronting them in some form be considered permissible? Also, what was the legal ruling that made sure companies are strictly beholden to maximize shareholder profits rather than anything particularly else? This had to do with Henry Ford wanting to pay his worker more?
    10
  1466. Bro, your faceā€¦ Is this an attempt to go on TRT after your last episode, but accidentally getting Deca/dbol? Srs tho, hope youā€™re all good

  1471. Ā @jsbrads1Ā  Kids sharing rooms will undoubtedly be categorized as abuse in the near future. It is already the case that foster or adoption requires an individual room for each child. That's not to say its wrong or unhealthy, only that modern attitudes about personal space have become codified and unfriendly to living conditions people find ordinary in less affluent places and times.
    10
  1472. It will never not be funny to me how they think that adopting traditional sexual morality will somehow harm "the patriarchy".
    10
  1473. Haha, Simone, here's a quirky one for you: My wife, believe it or not, has never been one to argue. However, there was this one time when our first child was just three months old. I was returning from a work trip, and she decided to hop on a train to meet me. Well, during the train ride, a slightly intoxicated girl attempted to pick up our daughter despite my wife's firm refusal. Let's just say, that was the first and only time in her life she's ever had to resort to physical action.
    10
  1474. Yeah we don't know squat about the Druidic religion. Because they didn't have a written tradtion and the Romans wiped them out.

  1475. I've never seen this channel. I haven't even watched the video...but Based Camp is the cleveriest of clever names for a channel.
    10
  1476. I love your content. It is deeply inspering and shows that it is possible to have multiple children as an academically educated couple. I stumbled across your account when I watched something about anti-natalism I have never seen anything more depressing and insane like these mentally unstable and in my eyes evil people who want to end humanity and human life. Could u guys consider doing a reaction video to the parenting ideas of Erica Komisar, or just commenting on one of her videos/ books or work in general. I would highly appreciate it. Both of you seem to have flourishing carrieres and manage to upload videos on youtube whilst having multiple kids due to the parenting philosophy of Erica Komisar motherhood should be the priority in the first three years of a childs life so working and parenting shouldn't be possible (at least for the mother, Simone) without traumatising the kid but your children seemed to be your highest priority even tho you both are still working and being productive. Best wishes ā™”

  1480. The joyless Cromwellians and the range of the moment hedonists are both cultural and genetic dead ends for different reasons. The future belongs to low time preference vitalists that understand that temperance is how you maximize pleasure over the span of a lifetime.
    10
  1481. I understand simone's dismissal of the whole concept insofar for anyone below utilitarian since they will be at a biological level unable to advance without direct intervention IE neuralware. For those in high Mystic and past they too are unsaveable do to the mental barriers they've jailed themselves in without direct intervention. You could potential trick or work negative utilitarianism into escaping the path or create non-negtive life extension that is beneficial but the pitfalls they provide along with the mindset generally led this way means they're unlikely to change or care. This in the end it is a pragmatist chart for utilitarianist and low mystics on why the pragmatist are right. The best way I would work this would observation to results. Since all the low tiers require ignoring effects from action while high tiers are focused on the results of a cause. It looks useful for children and teens though since it would help explain why certain life paths are "good" and "bad" but if you frame it incorrectly could be used to justify dehumanizinon.
    10
  1482. Studying Comp Sci here. In short, there are studies and papers out there detailing approximately how long we have until ECDSA is cracked by a quantum computer or network of them and how much it would cost. In short, the technology and economics of cracking ECDSA won't be available/make sense until atleast the 2040s-2050s. Do with that information what you will. Also, Bitcoin itself isn't encrypted. That's a common misconception people have of it...
    10
  1483. pleeeeeasssssse continue these awesome convos. question: the sexual and biological implications of TikTok, OnlyFans, and all the other dopa-apps is definitely an interesting topic -- i would really like to know (perhaps in a separate video?) if its possible an individual, and perhaps a society, whom is born biologically straight, but due to social expectation/pressures could convince a person or the masses to be something otherwise (bi, gay, etc). im sure the answer is out there but i figured it would be fantastic if you both could cogently piece the information already out there

  1486. It's amazing how difficult it is to find people with legitimately fresh and interesting ideas. I don't come upon them too often but I'm very happy to say I've encountered quite a lot of fresh and interesting ideas listening to the both of you so far! Thanks for the taking the time to put something out into the world that actually moves the ball of society forward instead of just sifting through the dust bin of history for ideas and ideologies to rehash (i.e. the dreary default). Also, I recently heard Malcolm on the Modern Wisdom podcast quoting some data on fertility rates broken down by cultural segment. Is that kind of data publicly accessible and curated somewhere that could be easily referenced by any chance?
    10
  1487. The awe with which Mini Malcolm gazes upon his mommy is so cute

  1488. I really value this discussion. I consider myself a stoic, striving to act virtuously and rationally. However, I often feel that pursuing these principles can be like throwing pearls before swine. It sometimes seems irrational to do the right thing when doing the wrong thing is often rewarded and the right thing is sometimes punished. Right being the rational, reproduceable, most feasible good. My approach has been to avoid outright wrongdoing but focus on achieving results through transparent and ethical methods. When confronted, I openly address any perceived shortcomings and invite feedback for improvementā€”though, in truth, the gaps often arise because others cut corners or rely on dishonesty to achieve exceptional outcomes. This approach has led to two distinct reactions: tremendous respect from coworkers and clients or disdain from leadership and dishonest peers. My challenge lies in determining whether itā€™s better to continue doing the right thing, even if it leads to professional martyrdom, or to adopt more "grey" strategies to climb the hierarchy. The ultimate goal would be to use that influence to drive more sustainable, ethical practices. Additionally, I am finding that ideas and influence are far less effective these days than simple gas lighting and coercion. Helping people understand the problem and giving them tools to fix it often seems satiating enough. Stirring a bit of fear and vague solutions often seems to produce better short term results. I'm trying not to be too cynical, but it's a bit alarming how often I see this. I guess it's a bit of missing the forest for the trees to give too specific of help. Maybe the only real solution is obsession and drowning in work until the mastery overcomes the problems...

  1501. The California three strikes law was condemned to be sure. I was still an undergraduate at the time and I wholeheartedly supported it. When it was implemented, crime went way down, our quality of life went up, and we even started to forget to lock our doors at night, and this was in Los Angeles of all places.

  1503. I was an independent voter who typically had voted dem, but I had to vote Trump this time. I am very similar to Elon, Musk, and Trump in that we were all dem voters until dems went insane. Kamala was absolutely terrible. There was zero reason to vote for her. She had nothing for white straight men. Kamala joined forces with Liz Cheney, like I want peace not war.

  1507. For me Utopia is like Zen. Utopia is not a place, it is a state of mind. It is a state of mind in which time (related to stress) is not a factor, and it is the resolution of the human experience of space and time. Having without wanting, but one must not desire in order to have. It is a kind of balance that annihilates the cycles of happiness and sadness, similar to how the Buddha talked about retreating to the center of the dharma wheel (the wheel being a symbol of time) where the subjective vicissitudes of life cease.
    10
  1508. It takes a lot of confidence to post a video like this. I'm not sure I agree with the thesis, but I applaud the audacity.

  1509. This. I'm the second of 49 grandkids on my dad's side. My wife and I have 8 kids (1 on the way). All the cousins get together at one of my uncle's house and have basketball, volleyball, swimming, and a few other activities all going on at the same time. Big Catholic families are the best! Growth isn't QUITE as exponential as you'd think due to having 5 priests and 2 nuns in our generation, though. Edit: Also, no divorce, no extramarital births. Really unusual when you're talking about something like 30+ marriages in the US. Still several in my generation that are too young to be married.
    10
  1510. The key in a great long-term relationship is to anticipate each other's needs and being greatful to each other for that. I agree with you both and testify that it has worked for me and my husband for over 23 years. That is a way to model marriage and family to the next generation.

  1511. It'll be like Lebanon was in the 50s and 60s. A beautiful Mediterranean city with sky rises and a thriving banking sector (that's doomed to collapse).

  1512. Osama wasn't "murdered" because "murder" is a legal term. But you are correct - basically, homicide isn't always "immoral" and Osama is an example of that. And honestly, so is this situation

  1515. These bots won't just appear as authentic as a human but MORE authentic. They'll care about you more, appear to show more empathy and know you better than your friends. The bots might be preferable to real humans, what then?

  1516. We may not have the right to do it, but as good men we have a duty to protect others

  1517. A clarification around 13:00: I think that Waffen-SS soldiers canā€™t claim their promised SS-specific pensions, but they can get generic ā€œwounded veteransā€™ pensionsā€ if otherwise eligible, and the same situation holds for other SS units and ā€œwounded civiliansā€™ pensions.ā€ Former Wehrmacht officers can claim their pensions, however, as can former Stasi officers.

  1520. Gotta say this interview was really fascinating. That group makes so much more sense now. Lost kids with no guidance, hopped up on drugs and alcohol, angry at everything and just want to break sh*t - the possible connections to organized crime was something I had never even thought about. Actually makes me feel a small bit of sympathy towards the more young and impressionable in their ranks - and much, much more anger towards the cynical politicians who use them as their foot soldiers.
    10
  1521. Well, I have been an atheist for the entire 39 years of my life. I was an atheist long before the whole "4 horsemen of atheism" thing which I thought so silly. And I continue to be an atheist after the movement faded. Despite being an atheist, I consider Christians to be my brothers and sisters, and I prefer people to be CHRISTIANS rather than atheists. I think everybody should be free, but it's better if they are Christians. My wife is religious, I don't mind my kids going to the church. They know my position and my opinions and philosophy, but they are free to believe or not. PS: I appreciate any good hearted Christian that may pray for me, I really do, but don't waste your time trying to convert me. I'm an evolutionary biologist and my philosophy is very grounded. I'll die an atheist and nothing can change that (hubris, I know, but I also have to be a realist instead of false humble). Despite that, I am an admirer of the figure of Christ, and I see Jesus as a role model to be followed (and that's not small for someone who was raised as an atheist, and not only that, raised by an atheist MARXIST father who is still viciously anti religion). I don't believe in Christ as God, but I place him as the highest aspiration a human could look up to.

  1522. 24:12 I have a hypothesis about this. Pay attention to what "markers of wealth" we have through time. In India... lots of gold bracelets and necklaces for women are a mark of wealth in the event that she needs to..she can sell the gold for money. In the 1800s a "silver set" was 100% NECESSARY...for a newly wedded couple...as a wedding gift... if you had money you had the "good china" and the "regular" china...with a large ...china cabinet to shocase YOUR WEALTH in the form of your expensive china in that cabinet. My grandmother...who was born in the early 1900s...adopted that mentality...and passed it on to any of us who knew her... you had to take care of ..and fuss about a clean silver set and your "good china"... (this is just one example) Trump....being nearly 80... comes from that time period when what you owned...was a mark of wealth and "showing off'... AND... supposedly... as Trump was building his business...he was forever...and still is...an "outsider'... in "New york high society"...and he kept trying to "out status" those in "high society"...and it just happens that those old marks of wealth ALSO match...that of older cultures like persia and Europe... i dont think Trump is explicitly mimicking the persian asthetic in interior design... he is just WAY OVER DOING the OLD traditional Asthetic from way back then...which also matches that of persian and European design.

  1527. You two are as fascinating to listen to as you are terrifying. I'm an early 30s liberal soon to be a three time Orange voter in one of the Great Blue Coastal Cities. I check in daily to get vague impressions of just how interesting the times we live in are going to be and for the sheer scope of insights you being to my midwit mind.

  1528. But, but high school attractiveness worked differently, if you wear certain types of clothes, or NOT part of the popular group, you could be attractive, objectively, but you are seen as ugly, and as a freak.. I'm sure all of you guys remember popular girls that honestly aren't very good looking, but they're labeled as the best looking girl.. it's weird.
    10
  1529. I liked the first AI song you put in a video. Then you started doing it in every video, and I was like "Ok, i guess this is a thing now. Not every topic needs a song but if it works ok". Then this video was filled with songs and it just dragged. It's too much. You could put a bit of one where it's relevant and then the best part to show off at the end, and if people want to listen to the whole thing, they'll click the link

  1530. Iā€™ve rarely indulged content on childcare or parenting. Iā€™ve not watched anything at all on childcare or parenting in at least a couple of years. Yet for some confusing reason this video has arrived in my feed and I couldnā€™t be more pleased with having the privilege to be introduced to this coupleā€™s content.

  1534. I would love it if my parents and grandparents tried to hook me up with somebody attractive. But the one time my mom tried to do this, she picked a girl who had never seen a treadmill in her life. I went to he gym every day, so I couldnt go along with that

  1537. 27:17 Scandinavian research into bullying showed that popular people were the nicest. They were kind and did not take offense easily. When I read this research, I had to rethink my high school experience. My popularity was in direct proportion to my maturity and interest in other people. My unpolularity was a direct result of immaturity and a narcissistic desire to recognized as cool because i listened to weird music and liked cult films.

  1539. God Bless, you should also know he was enchanted by your beauty or he wouldnā€™t have looked at you closely to recognize your good character, and also most healthy men and Iā€™ll bet your husband is one of them see their wife from their youth thru a type of rose colored glasses where they still see the beauty of her youth when looking at her face long after her beauty has faded for the rest of the world and if he sees an imperfection like a wrinkle or a stretch mark after children he may also see that as a precious gift you have given him. Tell him you appreciate and respect him, I hope you have an amazing marriage.

  1542. Grrr... the fact that y'all know Dutton and that this is news is scold-worthy. He was the first public person i saw make the reference 5 or so years ago...whenever he was in the low thousands of subs, whenever that was. It was not a new notion then. You will likely want to go further down the rabbit hole however and look at more correlates. The cutter/self harm crowd is a great place to start. Going to need far more information about the autistic meetup shenanigans. Is there a specific to the event video that I have missed? Maybe a good place to find the sort of (culturally speaking) low agreeability woman who wants lots of kids, likes the idea of surviving tje geomagnetic excursion and can see the value in plyg-life. Sidebar- continue to show your wife affection. It helps to mitigate the constant misuse of the term gender and the filler words.

  1544. Malcolm embracing his Anti-Villain arc! I love it. God bless you two & your family. I hope you get the recognition yā€™all have earned soon
    9
  1545. I feel very heard that Malcolm is using woke instead of progressive. I think this helps your advocacy A LOT! The way he talked abou wokism today actually reminded me of the young adult novel The Giver in which everyone ends up the same.

  1547. Youā€™re missing where itā€™s going and itā€™s very complex and all weaves together. Christians have always believed that Christ return is eminent. Youā€™re actually commanded to. Weā€™re also told that no man knows the day or the hour and weā€™re told that in the last days which are also the days they were living in that they would be mockers, and how long he took to return. Which implies a long time.

  1548. Battlestar Galactica (2004) was entirely about religious AI. (It was really cool! Kind of a Sci-Fi story straight out of the Old Testament.) ALSO, that's a Mormon connection: Battlestar Galactica was from the very beginning highly influenced by Mormon theology.
    9
  1549. Joe Rogan. Just saying. Just by having him on and giving him the nod likely sent many men to a ballot box for Trump. Let's not forget, but let's surely praise Scott for his herculean effort. A true American hero.

  1550. You guys heard of KaiserBauch? You should do a collab with him. He does deep dives on various nations demography.

  1551. Wtf?
    9
  1552. That's one of my struggles with religion currently since I want to raise my (future) children religiously but my family, being a blend between mostly Catholics and Jehovah witnesses have a strong repugnance towards new technologies, especially reproductive technologies. It's a mixture between "Society isn't going to collapse" and "Society is going to collapse but we shouldn't worry or do anything about it because the lord will provide for us". This episode was really great and informative, I love the insights Mrs. Collins brings and the energy Mr. Collin usually has in each of these episodes, the passion both of you two have. (anyways, long comment over, I'm sorry for writing too much šŸ˜…)

  1553. The kids are cute and the boys just as high-energy as their dad.

  1554. Hi Malcolm and Simone, this may be a weird comment. I don't mean it that way though. I just wanted to thank you for making the videos you do with your kids present. I understand all the safety concerns around this topic, but I do have to say, I miss seeing kids. Its so strange to hardly see any outside and then even get them censored in the online world. And again, I understand why, I get why.. i just really cherish when your little baby giggle and tries to talk too. Its making me smile ear to ear when I listen to your videos. I wish you all only the best, cant wait to see your kids grow and ague with you about interesting topics. :D

  1555. A long time ago I told my sister that affirming a new gender identity was like telling an anorexic that they're a fat ass. It turns out that I was right!

  1558. Speed of walking may also have to do with the fact that we live in urbanized areas. When traveling through forests or grassland, you not only have to watch your footing, but you also have to be aware of predators. Think of how fast you can walk across an open field vs. how fast you can walk a city block. Safer environment allows us to walk faster with less fear of injury or attack.
    9
  1559. Consistency in your political beliefs is a weakness, not a strength. Reality is too complex to be reduced to a 300 page document. What works in one context may not work in another Think of Mekka vs Medina Islam. It seems strange, that moral rules differ so greatly, based on if you are the group in power or not, but it makes sense from the perspective of the memeplex Even our body functions in a similar manner. For example, with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. There is not one optimal state for your body. Digestion is important if you are calm, but not when running away from a tiger. And stitching together contradicting ideas so your believers can choose to focus on one part of scripture and not another is infinitely easier to design your memeplex around any eventualities. If this happens use Medina Islam, but if this happensā€¦ Give your followers the option to rationalize their decision with scripture, after they have judged it fits best in this situation. The lack of consistency in religions, and the contradictions, are a feature, not a bug

  1560. I was an atheist until I realized that atheism is measurably less evolutionarily adaptive than theism and I was like "uh oh, something is wrong here, I better take another look at this..."
    9
  1561. Holy smokes that's sad. I, for one, am certainly nervous in subways now and that sucks.
    9
  1562. Malcolm / Simone, first off you both are gems; so please keep shining. Second, I think what mysticism provides is a story; which at our core we are mostly storytelling beings. Third, have either of you taken any psychedelics?
    9
  1563. Lux was a great character.

  1564. I hope it will. Watching what's happened to Europe has been like some kind of horror movie, except it's all real.

  1565. I agree for under 18. We don't need a nanny state for adults. We have too much of a nanny state already.
    9
  1566. The guys in the Red Pill community who go around the comments shaming guys who get girlfriends or comment things like "don't be fooled," "she's just using you" under a guy's story about a positive interaction with a woman would qualify as male brown shirts. The latter happened to me last month on a comment I left on a dating advice channel. I've got about half a video script written about it now.
    9
  1567. At this point, you can't call yourself a true advocate for common sense unless you have been pilloried upon the grandstand of tolerance.
    9
  1568. Iā€™m all for Brett Cooper and her content but I agree wholeheartedly with your take. My teen daughter cut her teeth on content like Brettā€™s so for that Iā€™m all for that kind of easy to digest, entry level content.
    9
  1569. The more I've learned about Nietzsche, the more I've come to realize that other than his hardon for authoritarianism being a bit too much, dude was extremely prescient in seeing where christian morality was leading Europe. Saw a video essay detailing his hatred of Kant, and it's so good. He nails the greatest flaws of Kant to a tee, and it really made me aware of how much of "atheist morality" is actually radical christian morality with a mask of atheism.

  1570. Have yā€™all done a deep dive into the different cultural groups of America and their demographic futures? Iā€™ve seen you touch on it, but not a deep dive. Thanks for your content!

  1571. Batman's rule has started to piss me off with how inconsistent it is and how often it flip flops between he won't kill and he won't let anyone die which never works cause he lets civilians die all the time.

  1572. What are your plans for dealing with the inevitable global electric grid killing solar flare Ć  la Carrington Event? Except that the next big flare will do much more damage because our magnetosphere has weakened substantially and is continuing to weaken. And we are OVERDUE for such an event, while being more dependent on electricity than ever before. @Suspicious0bservers talks about this on his channel here on YouTube. He believes that a solar micronova (which will induce a pole shift) will happen by 2050. Iā€™m not entirely convinced one is imminent, although there is some good evidence for past micronovae & pole shifts, so it seems reasonable to be concerned about it eventually happening if youā€™re pursuing a technophilic future.
    9
  1573. I love Malcolm's point about the Star Trek allusion (btw it's the Kobayashi Maru Test). The idea that with sufficient determination and wit a good person can have their cake and eat it too has always bugged me in media. My BIGGEST example of this: the finale of Avatar the Last Airbender. The whole series leads up to the point where Aang has to face Osai and he at the last minute gets cold feet about the prospect of having to take the Firelord's life due to his Pacifist upbringing. He consults with his past life mentors and they ALL tell him to do the right thing and end Osai's life - even his Air Nomad ancestor. Yangchen says to Aang explicitly that his desire to maintain his spiritual purity is an impossibility because of his duty as the Avatar. But the writers of the show cheated! They invented a new ability out of NOWHERE to give Aang the opportunity to have it both ways and neutralize the fire lord without killing him. Here's the thing: I don't think he would've done it. He SHOULD have done it, but he wouldn't have. And that's fine! Perhaps this is my bias but I see virtue in him sticking to his principals despite pressures from all sides including threats on his life and even his own ancestors; but ultimately accepting the consequences of these and meet them with a clear conscience . To me this is no different from Faith.
    9
  1574. I don't know my wife is a Filipina and they really like to have kids so I think that might be a bit of an exemption because they're overwhelmingly Catholic and still have pretty high fertility rates even though big percentage living in big cities

  1575. Guys, your thoughts on attachment parenting please!! Would like to hear your perspectives, maybe you also track the development of these ideas, how its rise is tied to primarily one-child culturen, what's your attitude to it and so on. People often ask your opinion about it

  1579. Hello Malcolm and Simone! I would love an episode on Unrequited Love! For all us who got our heart fleeting and maybe broken while dating recently.
    9
  1580. knowing about the divorce rate growing after a certain number of partners was depressing. why did no one tell me that when i was young? we can be screwing up our futures without even being aware of that.

  1583. GUYS! your content goes from strength to strength. Today's video was mind blowing! thank you. Guest suggestion: Bishop Robert Barron. just to hear you wax lyrical on life and religion would be incredible. Again, today's episode was so good, it was life affirming. Thank you.
    9
  1584. Latin Mass is traditional and it is about worshiping God. It isn't about enjoyment.
    9
  1585. Actually super fun episode, loved the bits at the end and when Malcolm gets so passionate about what you are talking about, Awesome
    9
  1586. There's a trans woman I follow because he woke up and so now he does reaction videos to the kind of content that lead to his transitioning and he's looking at that content with a more critical perspective. Malcolm is right to not be so worried about his kids. Culture has shifted.
    9
  1587. Shout out to Blair White, who's been talking about this issue for the better part of 7 years now.

  1589. Furries is where I draw the line.

  1590. Malcolm's mom sounds very based.
    9
  1591. Hey Malcolm & Simone how about how video how people can influence their countries politics? Many people feel they lack agency and the knowledge to do it.
    9
  1592. In regards to the PostWar boom you also have to consider that the only reason that was possible was also because all the world competition was in shambles. Europe was in shambles allowing for the economic powerhouse that is the US. Weve been living on borrowed time.
    9
  1593. I was so excited to get Aella on. Genuinely, her work on human sexuality is ground breaking and to me a cultural model of when potential future for academia. I really believe her to be an honest searcher for the truth who never manipulated her findings to confirm pre-held beliefs or ideology (which is incredibly rare). As to people who want to pile on Aella because her life style is not approved within your culture. Remember that we (this channel) fight for all cultural groups to be able to life their own way. When you try to force your culture on those around you, you are know different than the woke mob. Also, I would point out that I don't think her lifestyle is that different from the lifestyle your average Redpill guy might choose if born in an attractive female body. Every "deviant" life style is a hypothesis for something that might work. So long as that hypothesis is not predicated on taking other healthy cultures children to survive or hurting other cultural groups we are chill with it. Might her life style spawn some iteration of it that is intergenerationally stable? The future will be the judge of that. Not us. (Though we are open to pontification on the subject.) Also, I would point out that Aella is also of secular Calvinist background and culturally very very close to us (culturally someone I "get" and respect more than any living public intellectual). I suspect this is one of those situations where the "cultural DNA" is very similar but it can lead to widely different expression in different environments (like US vs israel Israel Haredi Jews).

  1596. Agree with the sleep issue! I have 6 month old, never slept better in my life. And people constantly ask me and my husband how do we feel with a small child. We are fine! I finally rested on my maternity leave, you are busy but not exhausted like after working in the office. Also, all those parents drive them self nuts with perfectionism: obsession about sids, fear of co- sleeping, lactivism, zero tv time, endless useless activities.
    9
  1597. There is a feeling in some circles that the justice system protects and enables criminals. This will lead to this kind of thing.

  1598. Roughly 84% of American women have kids. Sightly more than 60% of American men have kids. That will tell you what you need to know why 4B is being pushed. Its a competition issue.

  1605. I would love some whole episodes of just reading the book you were reading from. I love old books to learn about the past and it's easier to listen on YouTube while driving than to find time to sit with an actual book.
    9
  1606. I always suspected I was a bit on the Schizo spectrum, but now I guess its maybe not just a bit. Going to look into it more, thank you very much for the info!!!
    9
  1607. Where do genuine "new" ideas or insight come from? Clearly to take an additional step to develop new ideas beyond just reading and studying established wisdom there needs to be an understanding that new insights happen and it not always clear how or where that happens. Could the experience of insight be called a mystical experience in a certain sense? The common experience of people coming to new insights while taking a shower is just one example of this.

  1608. Oh My GOSH!!! That was the episode of Captain Planet that made it illegal to watch in my house growing up. My Mom saw that put an end to that show.

  1610. How can we show our appreciation to Scott and the Amish?

  1611. I'm a Finn and yea the gender discourse is(or was, I think we moved on a bit) silly AF here. We have one pronoun for humans which is gender neutral, but we don't even use it much and tend to say "it" or the name of the person. Even worse is that we just have one word for sex and gender. Basically the one for sex and we use "social sex" for gender if you want to differentiate. But discussions are often nonsensical as lefties use the word for sex/gender to mean gender and RW people hear sex. So it's all "WTF you are delusional, males are not females!" vs. "You are bigoted" Worst brainrot ever, even thou I love us not having gendered pronouns as it saved us from so much stupid drama! <3

  1616. Tuckerā€™s episode about US AID featured a guy that appeared to hold water for US AID, his argument being that it was Americaā€™s soft power arm, helping us manipulate countries, twist elections to our advantage and so forth. The annoying thing I kept wanting Tucker to nail the guy on was ā€œis it actually working thoughā€? Supporting activist groups in Nicaragua or wherever isnā€™t helping. Our soft power arm sucks, so thereā€™s really no argument for US AID

  1620. I think Malcolm's really onto something with condemning childhood medical transitions as a way to get women voters. I didn't vote for a Democrat for the first time in my life this election mainly because of this issue, and this is as a fiercely pro-choice woman whose parents and grandparents were all Democrats. Detransitioners are incredibly sympathetic. I can't have a conversation about them without crying, and I think many liberal women would feel as strongly as I do if they knew about them.

  1621. My family had mice living in our van for a month before I figured out it was mice stewing sunflower seeds everywhere and not my husband. šŸ˜‚ Well, not a single doctor will check us for mouse born disease . Not even my medically complex daughter who would die if she develops hantavirus. In some states you can use Ulta Labs to order your own labs. I'm thinking of ordering mouse related disease tests for everyone. šŸ’Æ the medical system is failing people. People submit insane lab work to me that they were told was "normal" and the labs are screaming otherwise. I'd love to be listed as a dietitian on your resource list. I'm a out of the box thinking dietitian who is willing to look at individuality and research for people. I believe that my clients have a unique story and that it counts. They have brains after all. Their ideas count. I choose to stay at home with my kids, so dietitian is my side gig right now, but it's a way to fight with people against the lack of care in healthcare.

  1625. Kabbalah is not Jewish canon. Some believe it, some don't. Either way it's not a significant part of modern Judaism. Also, it has its roots in texts that are older than Islam.

  1626. Thank you for coming up with a rare object-level response to Yud's doomerism! I had an existential crisis in February over his predictions that we'd all get eaten by the paperclip monster within a decade, to the point where I started seeing a therapist for awhile. The subject still keeps me up at night. And yeah, this might just be my terror management instincts grasping for any hopium, but I don't want to live in the world where Yud is right and we all die right at the finish line.

  1628. 9:00 - If your brother commits a sex crime, you are more likely to commit a sex crime. This might be genetic but it might e environmental - if your brother is a sexual pervert, and you were raised around him - you might have been exposed to his behaviour or have been a victim or at least saw borderline behavior modeled.

  1632. "tradwife cargo cult" is one of those "poison" phrases Scott Adams talks about that instantly reframes the subject, and the damn thing is it's correct

  1634. [4:03] ROBOTS! I hear that excuse of "The old people will just vote themselves more power" I've even read that in old magazines from 1930's. [7:25] "nonproductives" I'm technically one of those, but I made internet culture, I made Trump a president, I made YOU. You system is doomed to dead wood at the top. But I'm not gonna stop you. Go, do your thing. I'll just stay here and liberate this chair.

  1635. not really no. There's always been a political trichotomy. auth-right, auth-left, and different flavors of (classic) lib. Even from the founding the federalists wanted to concentrate power.

  1639. Because King Haakon the good moved Yule to Dec 25th in 10th century. Haakon was already Christian and moved the (unrelated) pagan festival.

  1641. I'm trying hard not to root for the masked man and it keeps getting harder, but the judicial system has failed. If this man is made a hero, and it seems to be going that way, from both sides of the isle, this is probably the start of a reckoning.

  1642. Germany is pretty impressive today in these fields. But it just doesn't matter. Demography and migration are the core existential issues. Sad you didn't even mention it.

  1643. The YT channel Inspiring Philosophy has a phenomenal setof videos addressing this. I'm seeing a lot of 'screeching idiots' (to quote your thumbnail) in the comments lol

  1644. 29:47 "Why are you trying to create better world even if you won't be able to live in it?" Because I looked at history, and saw all the suffering and hardship that the people of the past had to endure, realized that I didn't have to merely because I was lucky enough to have been born after people who worked hard to eliminate those hardships from the human experience and could not express my gratitude to them in any other way than to pay it forward because they were already dead. I was lucky enough to be born to live in the 21st century AD instead of 10,000 BC. The only reason life is better now than it was then is because of people who worked to create a better world that they'd never live in. So I asked myself: How can I make the future 10,000 years from now as much better than to today as today is better than 10,000 years ago? I feel a moral responsibility to do for others what was done for me. So I want to leave future generations more than I inherited, and create an even better future that I will never get to experience.

  1645. As an antinatalist Iā€™ve largely concluded our orientation is genetic, If you ask most Antinatalist theyā€™ll say theyā€™ve never wanted children.. My wife and I fall under the: perfectly happy without children categoryā€¦. However for those who want kids late capitalism and unfolding ecocide does seem a huge ethical hurdleā€¦ My pessimism is ontological and choosing to bring / cause people here has always seemed insane to me. While I definitely freely share my opinion with confused people, I try never to shame pro natalist anymore because as I say Iā€™m not sure they have a choice in their urgent desire to reproduceā€¦

  1648. On Jewish kids being less risk-averse, that doesnā€™t line up with the Chabad families I know. The kids from those families who I knew were respectful and polite, sure, but were also the most likely to take risks in physical activity. Donā€™t forget, the Chabad families are likely growing up with the expectation of eventually marrying and moving out to establish a community center that could be literally anywhere in the world where there are Jews, regardless of danger - like the Congo. The other thing is, I think you missed the generation of ā€œregular Jewsā€ who were very risky - those were people of your fatherā€™s and grandfatherā€™s generations. My grandfather was fighting kids in the street, my father was doing wrestling when he was young, and there were a fair number of prominent Jews in combat sports. My personal theory there is that population mostly left and went to Israel.

  1649. This is weird. I was just shopping for Meditations for my Father in Law yesterday.
    8
  1650. This video already helped me so much, the date I had yesterday was the best I've ever had. But with the way sex precedes marriage for everyone (unfortunately LDS too), the "how to get people to sleep with you" video would be very helpful for making people comfortable with you that way, it's a prerequisite for marriage. Upload it uncut outside of Youtube if it's really too spicy.

  1656. I am not sure if this will speed up or slow down a cyberpunk style dystopia? Maybe if DoJ did not do sweetheart deals with corporations we might not be in this mess. If president-elect Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr want to do some form of hardball at the federal level insurance reform just maybe insurance companies might want to play along.

  1660. 58:30 This is hilarious. Ive been a lifelong Civ fan and the intro videos made me cry or feel awe even as a kid
    8
  1661. This is deeply interesting. The idea that increasingly complex AI, and increasingly complex intelligence in general, will tend toward greater pro-sociality lines up pretty well with the idea that our intelligence is actually a byproduct of us evolving to cooperate more effectively at scale. The bigger/better/more complex things get, the more humane they seem to wind up becoming on average
    8
  1662. Note that Christianity explicitly warns about the perils of organized religion and legalism and self-importance among the priest caste through stories about the Pharisees and the Temple. The presence of these warnings wasn't enough to stop the problem, but arguably they're key as a corrective. God himself dropped by and humans tortured God to death for heresy, and I'll suggest that this priesthood hygiene protocol was key to so many self-corrective mechanisms becoming embedded in governance structures of Christian-derived cultures. Cultural hygiene protocols are imperfect. Plan accordingly.

  1666. I discovered them when they only had a few hundred followers. I never subscribed. I remember that night I was deeply in the rabbit hole of fundamentalist Christian nonsense for 7 or so hours because I couldn't stop watching the videos. My mind was too blown away by the people telling such over the top ridiculous things for me to go to sleep. The session started with me being a broke college student looking for the money saving ideas online. I discovered a good channel giving just the kind of advice I needed. I started binge watching the videos on the channel. It was run by a fundamentalists couple. They were quite intelligent and funny. It was obvious the faith was a very big part of their lives, but the channel was not about it. After a few days of watching their videos, the algorithm started thinking I was into the fundamentalism. It started recommending me videos and one boring evening I just tap on the video about modesty. Then another one... One woman said pants on women are crossdressing and the crossdressing is Evil. Then on another video a guy said we should dress up to cover our entire legs and never wear sandals. Shirts should cover elbows and collar bones. Men should only wear pants and women only skirts and dresses. Women should cover their heads while in church... Then a woman went on a long rant about how Satanists are conspiring to turn America into the Satanic caliphate and they are succeeding faster than they expected. Then I watched a few more videos about Satanic caliphate conspiracy. Women wearing pants was a part of it, together with abortion, gay agenda, evolution and Hollywood sitcoms. Then I turned into what can we do to stop them. The best medicine was preaching on the streets. That means walking up to the person whom they see as the victim and talk to them about their need for saviour. Following them where they are going and not leaving them alone until they profess the love of Jesus. The people who needed saving from the Satanist conspiracy can be recognised by their fashion style. Band T-shirts, especially metal bands, women wearing open necklines or unnatural makeup, people with a lot of visible tattoos... The guy ended it all with talking about how Satanists have the police on their side so he had problems with them just for doing the God's work... During that night I also saw the girl defined video. Then a few months later I started seeing the lefties proclaiming they are the worst. If those progressives just saw the videos I watched the night I first saw their channel...

  1668. Youtube memory-holed first comment. I guess ill try again. Ryan's perch was over 300 yards away. Not feet. Thankfully, he had no/very little firearm experience, or he would have chosen a better tool for the job. The Kashanikov is good for short and medium ranges. At longer ranges, it's weight and kick make it unwieldly. Ryan wouldn't have been able to hit the golf clubhouse at 300 yards, more-or-less the previous president.

  1670. Hi Malcolm and Simone. I've been following you for almost a year now. I'm a gay man in Europe who'd like to find a partner and start a family of my own through surrogacy. I'd love to try a platform like Keeper, which you talked about in one of your most recent videos. However, Keeper is only available to straight people. I was wondering if you might have any ideas or recommendations
    8
  1671. What great couple.

  1672. Yes, Simone prefers it that way. No, this couple is not neurotypical.

  1677. As someone who use to work of Kaiser, there is a fundamental misunderstanding by you all on how it operates. Its a three teared system. Hospitals, Clinics and Pharmacy and then the Insurance. The latter two are for profit. The hospital is not for profit. Before the AC Kaiser would use massive amounts of charity care as a tax shelter for all the profits its two other groups made. All the physicians are owners in it. There is no negotiating. The physicians dont even need to pay for their office staff. Kaiser does. Kaiser is a good system because all the treatment is in house and its already paid for. Its why Kaiser has such a low refusal rate. And most of the refusals are for non Kaiser members who want treatment there. Kaiser built its system for its members, not the general public. One of the reasons costs have increased is the State of California forcing health care providers to take Medicaid patients. The State only pays 11 cents on the dollar for treatment, (this is back in 2019) and thats assuming you did everything right. Other wise the payment request is just ignored buy the state. Then there is the annual licensing requirements for Medicare. Again in 2019 licensing for an inpatient bed on just the Medical/Surgical (non telemetry) was over 100k a year. People have no idea how much government sucks out of healthcare. That said, the profits on things like drugs are stupefying. But again, thats the governments fault. Its against the law for pharmacists to even tell patients that they could get a Rx cheaper just by paying cash. Add to it the effects of the ACA limiting charity care right offs and you have exploding costs. It was easy to see this was going to happen. In the case of United Health Care, they have publicly traded stock. And the stock price is going to be defended to the death. Personally I blame the businesses who buy insurance coverage from them. You get what you pay for and you get what you tolerate.

  1683. We definitely need more more of Mrs. Collins parenting style, may she rest in peace. Love that anecdote about: Was there anything YOU could have done(instead of being a lil Karen, going to some ā€œauthorityā€)? Great discussion.
    8
  1684. 7:33 Malcolm is correct, EVERY man wants that voice of SUPREME confidence in him, a voice of ABSOLUTE faith in his willingness and ability to change the world for the better according to his vision, because she BELIEVES in his vision for the future of the world. THAT is most a woman can ever love a man, and that is beautiful and precious. I am simultaneously SO happy for yā€™all, and slightly jealous, despite that I know I shouldnā€™t be. Well done yā€™all, youā€™re doing good, keep going.

  1697. The Quaker rabbit hole is so deep and more significant than most anyone knows. I'm shocked you guys mentioned it. My lifelong best friend was born into one of THOSE families. I'm blueblood colonial stock and she is too, our families even intermarried in the early 1800s, but her family was deeply entrenched in the occult and Quaker.
    8
  1698. Hi Malcolm and Simone, what are your thoughts on people adopting your theological framework in their own lives? Mainly In a Private context. Also, is a refined combination of the 'Tract' series, 'Pragmatist's Guide' books and 'Martyrdom Of Man' as a singular 'Techno-Puritan' book something we would be able to expect in the future? I enjoy engaging with different theological ideas and would love to see a refined singular book that encapsulates everything it means to be 'Techno-Puritan'. Similar to how LDS have the Book Of Mormon. A singular addition to the Bible, which makes the ideas clear and approachable, ("distilled") so to say. Best <3

  1699. I canā€™t have kids for one reason or another and I am gay but I agree with yā€™all on a lot of your opinions

  1700. Malcolm, get your @ss to the gym. I'm at Edge Fitness in Delran if you want any tips. Just start by going 2x a week for short 30 minute workouts. Also, creatine is a great supplement for neurocognitive health as well but it is nothing like an anabolic steroid, it acts like a salt by helping bring water into the muscle cells.

  1705. You guys should definitely do an episode about the downfall of Disney (whether or not it has truly happened). The central question would be whether the downfall was more the result of cultural degeneration or issues pertaining to their business model. I grew up going to Disney all of the time, but now that I am an adult with my own family, Iā€™d never go, for both financial and cultural reasons.

  1710. If you want to see this story, simply watch 'Caddyshack' and 'Caddyshack II'. Rodney Dangerfield and Jackie Mason play the Trump-like character and in the 2nd one the daughter has the J.D. Vance shift from desperate to fit in to no longer being ashamed of her origins. Two successful movies should tell you the usefulness of this story Also, I fairly certain it's 'ma'maw' not 'mee'maw' as some idiot "journalists" have used.

  1716. Not sure if you guys were familiar with the studies on ai facial recognition being very effective at predicting political affiliation, but knowing that it wouldn't surprise me if some people are able to recognize complimentary personality on sight subconsciously. Or something like that, I fell in love with my wife on sight and decided to marry her on our first date and we are practically opposite people have extremely complimentary personality, disposition and skillsets.

Every. Single. Time. Please keep the content and commentary coming! I find both of you charming and very interesting. Malcom, itā€™s heartwarming to hear how you love and appreciate your life and family. Simone, I love your viewpoints, style, and sincerely hope you win the upcoming election. If I were in your district, youā€™d have my vote. You two are great ā¤

  1720. I noticed that most people will just check the boxes required to do their job instead of doing the things that effectively accomplish a goal. It's so bad when people tell other people to do what they think will accomplish a goal but there's no link between those actions and the goal

  1725. In all honesty i think she just married the wrong individual, and she does not really get how the sex thing works. I married a virgin and i was a virgin. The first time we did it was rough but it was very rewarding and we knew over time we would learn to pleas each other more, so it was a journey or space that just me and my wife got to explore.

  1734. I'm a little confused because these topics (the first part) have been discussed a lot in the past year with people working in AI alignment (ex: changing utility function). Then again, I'm guessing most of your reading of the alignment stuff comes from the Eliezer view. Lots has changed though Eliezer is still the loudest. Looking at Paul Christiano and his alignment failure story is a lot closer to where we're at (at starting point) and MIRI has failed to update on the deep learning paradigm imo.

  1735. 10:40 Lol I find it so funny that something seemingly innocent like sharing a christmas meal with someone you donā€™t know that well is equivalent in weirdness to malcom as sleeping someone other than with his wife. Absolute curveball I started laughing during the whole homeless part lol

  1737. Hi Malcolm and Simone, This is kind of a copy paste comment from the previous video but I think it's important, It's going to seem stupid, but I think that HD cameras and a seating type arrangement would bring in a lot of people to Based Camp. With great lighting setups and nice looking desks and whatnot. Personally I really like your setup, with a single ring light and intimate camera angle. But you would probably get a wider audience with a camera angle where you are 'facing each other', and the camera is merely a ghost like third perspective on the conversation, rather than someone who is being directly engaged with. This means your super relatable and awesome at building community, but (maybe) most people see the setup and move on to some other guru dude like 'Tom Bilyeu' whos got a 'sweet' setup, (but in my opinion your guys content is the best content currently on the planet.) Now just to stress again, this is not what I would like more, I absolutely love the way you make your videos. This is just what I think a more general audience would engage with more, and help with reach. Best! <3

  1743. I dont know what this dude is talking about...almost all of the successful businessmen, achievers and their legacies you see in South East Asia left way before 1949. They left mostly to escape poverty during the last Qing Dynasty and subsequently chaos when that Dynasty collapsed. Might be different in the US where many came after 1949...and that could explain why they are not anywhere as economically successful as the Chinese in South East Asia.
    7
  1744. I think it's partly to blame on the cult of psychology, which is being injected into the wider world. Most psychologists do a bad job of separating "formative" from "fault", meaning much of who we are is formed by our parental influences, but that doesn't mean every negative thing is worthy of blame. This is broadly related to why I'm cautious of SEL programs, because they seem to encourage intense subjectivity and empathy, including expecting near-telepathic prescience from others wrt interacting with you. Children raised to believe that their bad feelings are because of someone else's malice will naturally direct a lot of anger towards their parents.

  1745. Malcom I love your honesty tho, keep it up.

  1746. This is the information I desire. Thank you.

  1748. In simple terms AI will have the ultimate advantage in psychological manipulation (psychological hacking) because of its super-normal ability to produce 'super-normal stimuli' for essentially anything. Most people will eventually not be able to resist the allure in some way or another.

  1752. 1:09:57 Malcolm got it; it was Nietzscheā€™s sister, Elisabeth Fƶrster-Nietzsche. Per my best understanding, Walter Kaufmannā€™s translation of Nietzscheā€™s ā€œThe Will to Powerā€ is the best translation which cuts out all of the additions from Elisabeth Fƶrster-Nietzsche.
    7
  1753. I was raised by Christian parents who embody their faith about as much as is possible. Part of the reason why I didn't follow in their footsteps was because I saw all this feel-good "New Age" crap seeping into the church at large.

    7
  1758. Fun fact in Christian orthodox countries, they celebrate Christmas on Jan 7 because they believe that Jesus was unalived on April 7th. And the Hebrewā€™s believed that prophets pass away on the anniversary of their conception. April 7th plus 9 months gets them around January 7th. Itā€™s also why they celebrate Easter in April. In western countries, countries itā€™s December 25th, because they believe Jesus passed on March 25th.
    7
  1759. Regarding chill parenting. I was the only millennial I knew with no rules. Starting from about 5,6 or 7 Iā€™d leave in the morning and return in the evening. I grew up in Toronto on a main avenue. Iā€™d ride my bike all day, vandalize sheds, climb TV antennas, sneak into a private all girls school dorms near by house, chase foxes in ravines, play ball hockey and ride 20km down to the beaches. It was the best childhood ever due to my parents ā€œneglectā€. Luckily they didnā€™t give a shit.

So I have been planning how to minmaxx having kids and raising them and am planning on becoming an accounting professor at a private university thus making 200k a year while working 15 hours a week so I can get married and homeschool 16 kids and be qualified to give them a great education šŸ˜‚
    7
  1762. Listening to this 6:50 , It feels like this sort of better explains the psychology of women in historical dramas, who enjoy being the concubine, and not the wife.. And the way those characters are written.. Like they take pleasure out of the male character coming to their room, and ignoring the general's daughter, or the emperor's daughter... That's really interesting... I always wonder why those characters still were popular with some women, and I guess it wasn't just as a villain..

    7
  1765. My homeschool kid story was a neighborhood kid. He had what you were talking about, but his real weakness was around girls he liked. He had a higher innocence and didn't know how to rib with the group while girls were around in order to not be a prop for one of the other guys. Still kid world, but still a struggle for a highschool boy
    7
  1766. We already do that. If you abuse kids they're taken away. If you want to adopt they have you go through several tests and inspections. They take it a single step before all that.
    7
  1767. Malcom is obviously an extremely intelligent guy, but twisting the question by making it a black ir Jewish man is actually a genius move of it's own caliber.
    7
  1768. I wonder how much of this is just biased reporting. In the first half of the twentieth century filial deference was the cultural norm, so people who hated their parents would not say so, or be ignored or considered mal-contents. The second half of the century represented an over correction against unjust systems of power where it was incredibly trendy to tear down whoever had power, so everyone who didn't like their parents would say so and be applauded. And the applause maybe caused people with indifferent parents to pretend openly that their parents were not just mediocre but evil. The collectivist program of destroying the family and replacing it with the state probably also encourages the overemphasis on bad parents and an underemphasis on good ones.
    7
  1769. 27:45 lmao the rapid cut editing for this bit hahahaha

  1770. It is strange how the media takes umbridge with people promoting healthy living and big families. If this couple started a hedonistic hippy commune, the media would praise them. I don't think a rabbi and his large family would be treated this way, which is important to note.

  1777. Women are wards of the state extracting resources from men for the benefit of the state in exchange for limited safety and security (welfare, housing benefits, tax incentives and so on. ) For women, the state is the alpha against which no individual man can compete. The state will provide for women regardless of their circumstances. Any attempt to restrain the rewards system will be opposed, by women, with extreme prejudice. Given free choice, women would enslave all men, seize all productive assets and redistribute it to themselves. Yes, Girl Communism.
    7
  1778. Heya Based camp. I would really appreciate an up-to-date video on the bio-logistics of pregnancy. How to get started properly, how to make sure you aren't screwing your kids up via micro plastics and other disruptors, how to choose a obgyn, etc. I would especially like to hear about your own fertility issues and how you resolved them (or otherwise bypassed them). We're trying to get pregnant right now and there's a number of issues, though they don't seem insurmountable. IVF might be required though which is thankfully subsidised in my country. Please consider this as a topic. I would be immensely grateful and so too would many of your watchers who are following along precisely because of this purpose.

  1780. I think the main value of this classification system is communication, what sorts of conversations you can have with particular people. I suppose the spiral dynamics system has similar utility. I think it comes down to how wisely the categories are defined for the types of conversations you want to have. The structure of charts like those say a lot about the people who made them. It reminds me of personalty tests, which always have a classification structure behind them and usually an optimization function.

  1782. The Wachowski situations is absolutely WILD when you look into it. First, they're co-dependent siblings, extremely obviously, and did everything together ALL of the time. One was the leader, the other the follower. Eventually, once they moved to Hollywood from Chicago, the leader of the pair fell in love with this weird nightclub lesbian dominatrix after being in the weird S&M kink scene in LA for a few years. So the leader (I think it was Larry IIRC) basically went full Van Gogh in order to appeal to this lesbian, and transitioned to being a woman to get with her. That actually worked for a little while because this lady was an absolute freak with the kink stuff already, but ultimately it didn't work out in the end. There were a bunch of excuses as to why, but I'm guessing the whole "I'll become a woman for you" wasn't enough to get over the fact that the neo-vajayjay wasn't what she preferred. Unfortunately, because the other brother is a complete co-dependent and went through his bro's transition on the sidelines they absorbed that as the thing to do themselves and bingo bango you now have the sisters instead of the brothers, though that took like, another 10 years.

  1786. 1 a video on how the physical environment shapes fertility. (Like in a zoo what types of confinement will animals not reproduce in) and how that might affect humans 2. A video on the overlap and interplay of cultur and geography. Like what types of cultural technology is downstream of geographic determinism and what cultural technology is a new innovation. 3. A video that's less strategic and more tactical on ways to date in cities. And how technology has changed the game. While walking my dog late at night I once saw a boy sneak upto a house his girlfriend climb out the window then they both attempted to sneak off only to be caught by the ring doorbell. 4 a historical anthropology on how the "traditional family structure" is actually just a post WW2 family structures. I remeber reading that in hunter-gatherers, society both mom and dad supplied similar levels of calories. And how a stay at home mom was more a blip in time. And moms used to be more homesteaders/property managers and dads used to be more frontiesmen/rangers (or at least the Revered. Ones) 5 a video on the division of labour and under what scenarios it makes sense/works for you. Like hunter gatherers where split largely into the masculine and feminine. Ps posting like a Google sheets link with links and descriptions of resources might be something worth setting up. I have a DM that has one with all the info relevant to the dnd campaign that's highly useful. I think you can also restrict alot of privileges n sheets so the public won't mess it up.

  1788. Iā€™m also heavily autistic like Simone, but I have some schizotypal traits too (magical thinking, very imaginative).

  1789. I grew up Mormon and left it over 25 years ago. That said, I went on a mormon mission and was deeply involved. I will say in the 90s is also when the Mormon Church was making major ad buys and trying to rehabilitate their image as being mainstream. They had a reputation for being quirky and weird and having bizarre beliefs, and their internal market research and PR people wanted to change that. One of the major things they did in the 90s that gets lost or forgotten is that they officially apologized to the Roman Catholic church after some cardinals visited, and officially renounced their previously held doctrine that the Roman Catholic Church is the "whore of Babylon" spoken of in the book of Revelation. There was a huge ecumenist push in the 90s to mainstream Mormonism and to really try and portray that "hey, we're just Christians like the rest of you."

  1790. French guy here (half Louisianese, double nationality, we have strong connexions to the black community), tomato soup aint french, if you are looking for dishes using tomato soup, you'de rather look at the other side of the mediteranean. You both make a lovely couple, and this baby doesnt know his luck; i was so failed by lack of familly structure (46 yo, awfull childhood, and a big part of my life struggling with consequences, juvy, years in jail, etc...) that i really love the idea of a world filled with ppl like you. Another thing i wanted to say is Thomas Sowell has had a hudge influence on black youngsters (this guy saved my sanity btw, big fan, even if i have no guru), did you ever see that clip on YT "stop blaming the white man" ? I'm not shure all of them are voting republican for trump though, they're just nt buying the lefty narative anymore... Greetings from France to the familly. Logics rule !

  1801. What AI do you guys use to make these AI generated songs? I'm bored at work.
    7
  1802. One hypothesis you guys neglected to mention is that small talk is how NTā€™s stim. They donā€™t find silence peaceful, they find it awkward, so they have to fill it with noise, but they canā€™t make random noises with other people around so they fill it pointless conversation, hence small talk. Also NTā€™s are inclined to interpret neutrality as negativity, so if they ever find themselves in a social situation that isnā€™t explicitly positive they feel the need to inject faux friendliness into it in order to not feel uncomfortable.
    7
  1803. I instinctively distrust straight edge people and I donā€™t think I could ever marry one. For me itā€™s more about a lack of openness + overly compliant/trusting of authority + too high strung/risk adverse. Plus drugs are a great way to learn about & bond with other people.

  1810. There are and have been plenty of good mystic-based groups. Eckankar (mystical individualist religion in the USA,) the Federation of Damanhur (artistic mystical society in Italy), Shabda Yoga (enormous mystical religion based in India), Unarius (US based artistic UFO cult in the US), the Monroe Institute, and there are a tons of hedge witch covens out there with various mystical involvements. Iā€™ll visit Malcolmā€™s essential argument in another comment.
    7
  1811. In Acts 1:15, after the death and resurrection of Jesus, there were at least 120 followers. Which is more than 50. It's not clear to me if the "approxemently 120" included women and children. So the number could, potentially, have been 240+. But that is speculation. What the Bible says is "120" and that could have been 120 males, or 120 people. There are of course cultural issues with who was counted. In John 6:66, we see Jesus was laying down hard truths and many turned away from Him. So at one time His followers could have been hundreds. Or even 1,000+ people (pure speculation, but if he had 300 males following Him, and each of those males had a wife and 2 children, that could be 1,200 people). Don't anyone take this as gospel truth, because the Bible doesn't specify the number following, except in Acts. But it's reasonable speculation and thought exercises.

  1816. In one of the Anne of Green Gables books, it is pointed out that keeping a man consists of first, getting a man, next keeping him well fed (ā€œwith lots of pie!ā€ interjects Gilbert), and finally watching him like a hawk. It is implied that other women will try to tempt him away by demonstrating superior pie-making abilities. The books are set in Edwardian Maritime Canada, from which you may gather an image of the culture of that time and place, and the values thought important therein.

  1817. You know there are fake YouTube couples who are in relationships for clout. You all are the complete opposite in the most wholesome way.

  1818. when you outsource childcare you get what you pay for, which is care. Raising children is a much larger and complex task than merely caring for them. Care means to take full responsibility for the well being of the child, which only teaches the child to take no responsibility for their own well-being, which makes them spoiled and entitled. Yet caring is all the outsourced resource can do since they are not the parent - they cannot risk doing more, socially or legally. thus every time you outsource childcare you're poisoning your child.

  1820. I'm enjoying hearing this down-to-earth conversation. I keep wondering why so many of the "safe rooms" in the homes and kibbutzim along the border failed. I start to wonder if there were a few common safe room designs used by Jews living close to the border, especially in the newer homes or settlements. I'm then lead to ponder if Hamas was able to get ahold of the room(s) specs & detect weaknesses.. or, if the safe rooms were just shoddily built to begin with. A false security. I kept seeing increasing reports across various sources of the safe rooms being infiltrated. Broken into right through the door. Using methods other than, say, "smoking them out" with fire. I read reports that seem to indicate that the Hamas gunmen essentially just strolled on into some of these safe rooms with little effort. It gave me the impression that many of the safe rooms in family homes were easily infiltrated. I'm sure there's rarely a perfect safe room, especially in smaller family homes, but this is something I can't help but wonder about. If it were just a few instances I wouldn't be so curious. But there seemed to be so many instances of easy infiltration indicated in these reports. It's a curious thing to say the least.

  1822. I went to an all boys Catholic high school and every time word got out that some guy got his gf pregnant, one or two teachers would shut the classroom door and tell us to use a condom. "If your gonna break the big rule, might as well break the little rule too".
    7
  1823. I genuinely donā€™t get the hate against IVF or surrogacy. IVF is fertility treatment and surrogates arenā€™t ā€œbirthing handmaidsā€ theyā€™re usually women who want to help others have families. Surrogates are usually kind people who have children and want to help people have kids. IVF is literally just natural pregnancy with extra steps. I donā€™t get the whining from conservative groups against those two things tbh

Anyways, thanks for making the most interesting podcast on the internet!

  1850. I swear throughout my psychological degree anorexia was never linked to autism. Simone is 100% right about the popular girl stereotype
    6
  1851. You talk about demographics a lot, which until relatively recently was a complete blind spot of the Romanian media. The banning of contraception under Ceausescu's communist reign coupled with mass abortion during the early 1990s left the country in an "interesting" demographic position for which Romania is paying to this day.

  1852. Malcolm's dramatic readings are hilarious. Props for the conscientious podcasting too. The 5 body count threshold matches another survey, I think it was the marital happiness one.

  1859. BABY! Oh and a good talk I guess šŸ˜Š On a more serious note, fascinating insight in to Korea. It's a wonderful showcase of all the over arching government structures suggested by various political factions and how effective they are (or not in this case)
    6
  1860. A valuable discussion: I now have a greater understanding of Malcolm's philosophical framework and find him more likeable. I have always been put off by the word "pragmatist," mostly equating it with the the philosophical school of Pragmatism. Why do I so dislike Pragmatism? Perhaps because John Dewey, one of its founders, advanced so many Progressive evils. This may be ironic because, as an engineer, I am very pragmatic. As far as the chart's usefulness, I'm undecided.

  1866. I literally cannot count how many times my wife has required me to answer for the both of us because she does not want to be the one speaking. Whether cooking meals watching children she felt drawn in two directions and just told me do do it she was busy doing what she's doing. Many women do this. Well many more conservative or traditional women do this.

  1867. Woke Inc broke the atheist movement in two. It showed which atheists were at least ostensibly being honest, and which ones were just looking for a religion to join (Wokeism). See Matt Dilahunty as a prime example

  1868. 18:03 If societies actually incentivized and demanded healthy families, people would not be so susceptible to "trauma cults"... šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

  1869. I'm a minute in and already like what I'm hearing. Where do i convert? šŸ˜‚ As for names, i always recommend to focus on the solution rather than the problem. Had an example of this at work recently where they were choosing a name for the local service, two options were "X substance misuse service" and "X recovery partnership". I know i prefer the latter. Stick to the inspiring solution not the problem, as a point of principle.šŸ˜Š And if you cant come up with a memorable and inspiring enough name I'm afraid itll be known as Collinsism. By the way, maybe you can include both the religious tone and Simone's commentary. I think both are really valuable for different reasons. Like the theory of math and the applications to engineering. The story that evokes emotion and mystery and the down to earth take. Gimme both!

  1871. Malcolm! What a point. That the impulse to put the subject of Sexuality and transgender is in the writing is a part of the self replication. Very interesting and likely correct.

  1872. Hahaha, baby steals the thunder of the entire show 45 seconds in. After that all I could look at was that little booger, what a cutie.

  1873. I love listening to parents trying to figure it all out. With 3 boys between 1 and 8, this is my constant struggle. And my kids are pretty good. Maybe I'll figure it out by number 5 or 6.

  1874. U can kinda or tell when creators have been reading comments it just dims the light of the soul.

  1876. A really smart way to manage modern day relationships, i might include this in my future marriage.

  1877. Funny how things ended out
    6
  1878. In his 2004 essay, 'The Age of the Essay', Paul Graham discussed how what was being discussed in the university English department ended up in the high school English class about a decade later. And why high school students were condemned to writing about literature instead of learning rhetoric as it was taught before it was rolled into the new English department as universities in the US went medieval with the PhD system. It has also been remarked as how dating culture migrated to high schools from colleges. The first mention of "dates" in a middle class publication, The Ladies' Home Journal, was in 1914, unexplained in a quote by a college girl. Dating practices on campus ended up in the high schools. This is illustrated as college girls marrying right out of college came just before the habit of marrying right after high school graduation in the 1950s.

  1883. My grandfather had a Collie that would cut cows out of his dairy herd just by him naming it. He had 2 cows named Mary because he had bought one that the owner had already named Mary and if the Collie cut the wrong one out he would say no and Mary again and the dog would go cut that one out the herd. Try training a rotwaler to do that. He was not a dog trainer.
    6
  1884. Cool! YouTube swatted you with a "Conext" banner for mentioning "The Great Replacement!" LoL! And it's true, we "hautists" do know every f*ckin' thing about trains....we really do. Let me tell you about the new Siemens SC-44 "Charger" diesels that Caltrans bought to replace the older EMD F-59's on the San Diego-San Luis Obispo "Surfliner" route....

  1885. Yall really got some of the most BASED takes Ive ever heard. Spicy takes šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„but probably true.

  1886. One thing to note here about Mexico's immigration policy, because I lived there for two years is this. It might apply to South Americans and other foreigners but it doesn't apply to Americans. Many laws don't. You can buy your way out of anything. Sure, it's illegal on paper to overstay your 6 month welcome, but nothing is going to happen to you if you do. You're a goldmine down there, spending money on their economy. You are in the top 0.1%. So, in practice, the immigration policy is, if you're an American, you can overstay your welcome and at most you'll pay a tiny fine when you leave the country. On paper they can do worse, maybe even ban you, but they won't.

  1887. 1:17 AR-15 with ......no visible sights? Hold up.......y'all are literally setup with atleast one of these pieces Walking Dead style where there are not only no red dot optics (shameful by itself), but there do not even appear to be iron sights on it? Nice choice on a walther CCP though. Have you seen the PDP's? Those are AMAZING. Way underrated.
    6
  1888. I'm interested in your thoughts on immigration. NZ is currently quiet selective (ranks on locally sought after skills) but was also effectively open to Polynesian immigration and before that to people from the UK. For us the amount of immigration is moderated by the costs of distance/ocean crossing.

  1889. Congratulations you guys and what an amazing gift to humanity this is. It's revolutionary.

  1890. I've never been to a strip club. But it would honestly depend on the vibe of the place. If everyone there is just having fun, then it's different from the misery pits It's also why I'm not a huge fan of bars/clubs in general. People aredoingŹ» what they're doing, but nobody appears to be enjoying the experience
    6
  1891. Iā€™m getting strong Rimworld vibes from this episode. In Rimworld you want your pawns to be highly skilled and generally on an even emotional keel. Supernal beauty does occasionally occur, but it inevitably leads to nonstop sexual harassment, which leads to social fights, tantrums, and insulting sprees, which not only injure pawns (who then require medical treatment and depletion of medicine supplies) but also leads to work stoppages, which can endanger the entire colony.

  1892. Love when you have a guess.

  1893. Love ur takes Malcolm & Simone, I watched the entirety of your video on population collapse and itā€™s all i could think about the past few days, I was wondering if you guys can go deeper on specifically on how weā€™re in the last prosperous age for a while and the patterns and how the signs in history more or so rhyme in a cultural collapse. Would love to hear your take of what sociological pressures bring out the opposite effect ala a cultural renaissance/ baby boom of some kind Love you guys Keep doing what ur doing!šŸ«¶šŸ¼

  1895. Yes. And I'm waiting for the nerd gardener for taking care of the planet interview.šŸ˜Š

  1896. I enjoyed this so much because as a conservative discussing sexuality is a bit frowned upon and many/all liberal sources that discuss sexuality are infected with the virus and pushing that agenda when they discuss sexuality.
    6
  1897. I have an aunt who had a giiiiiiiaannt collection of literature in the same vein. I mean a big bedroom, all walls were bookshelves, thousands of books, all of them were "porn for women". Anyone that researched female sexual fantasy knows that women are turned on by Handmaid's Tale style stories.
    6
  1898. It has happened before, the skoptsy in Russia, at least 200k people cut off their breasts, balls and penises over 90 years mostly in the last half of the 1800s. There were also over a million followers who didn't do the "seal" but were otherwise conforming to the culture.

  1903. Ideological world shaken.

  1904. We need a tax on remittances and mandatory e-verify. Manual deportation of 20 million would take forever to go through the courts and be needlessly costly. Congress must pass an e-verify law.

  1905. Ā @lovable_misanthropeĀ  Yes. Every life has value, but maybe itā€™s not as devastating to her as was initially assumed. Iā€™m sure his kids loved their father as all kids do. But I further read a neighbor describe him as ā€œVery impressiveā€ while describing the wife as ā€œThe kindest and friendliest person.ā€ The wife, not the husband. The husband has been described as very smart, very impressive etc. not kind, not decent, but impressive.
    6
  1906. 29:03 Malcolm Collins - the shonen manga. For real though, having my IQ measured resolved some frustrations I had. I didn't think I was particularly smart for some reason. I was frustrated that people didn't listen to me and that everyone with power over me (all the way to the top) seemed incompetent. Since then I take more time explaining things that seem simple, and people listen more. I'm not as frustrated with people in seats of power being incompetent, and less conspiratorial as it's more likely incompetence than I previously thought, and they were just born that way. The onus is on me to fix things, so if I should be frustrated, I should be frustrated with myself.
    6
  1907. Simone made a interesting point saying Trump has a big heart. Despite his pathological narcissism, weirdly he also seems to show compassion in ways absent from most other politicians. For example when Obama cried recalling the sandy hook event, many were saying itā€™s an act but Trump actually said he thinks they are genuine. Trump also said he didnā€™t listen to the tape of Jamal Kashogii getting deleted not out of disinterest but because it seemed like he found it too disturbing.

  1908. "It is disturbing how the progressives have stabbed the gay rights mocement in the back, then carved up its corpse, and then wear it like some sort of macabre outfit... They have taken their identity and community away from them and said, 'This identity supports us, so if you no longer support us, you no longer have ownership of your identity over your own struggles." I'm not gay. I have a few gay and bisexual leaning friends. I can't speak to the actual culture itself, but I completely understand what you're talking about. It's funny that you describe the progressives this way because this is exactly how some people have described their infiltration and takeover of communities I do have direct contact and experience with, particularly gaming and comic books. I'm glad you finally mentioned Gamergate 2 because the first Gamergate, at least in part, was the first real countercultural pushback against the corruption of "woke" influence. I would personally identify it as the first real counter offensive in the culture war. The progs speak as though they're traumatized by it like it was their Vietnam. Gamers believed that the gaming journalists were on our side because they had previously been important spokespeople for defending the community (I hate that manipulative and contrived term, but I'll use it for lack of a better one). They defended us against accusations from the monoculture that games were directly causing real-life violence and that gamers were inherently violent and therefore suspicious. Fast forward to the early 2010s, and all of a sudden, it was the journalists themselves who were attacking gamers and accusing them of being inherently racist, sexist, and homophobic. The vanguard that once protected us and the art form/entertainment medium had turned on it because progressive activists had started to take it over to use its growing platform and influence to further their own goals. Just like Biden's "if you don't know whether to vote for me or Donald Trump, then you ain't black" comment, gaming journalists systematically published articles involving the phrase "Gamers Are Dead" to denounce the "gamer" identity. This was in reaction to elements of the gaming community identifying and calling out their shady and unethical practices in the industry and the primarily San Fransisco-based media apparatus that covered it. Naturally, of course, they accused these gamers of perpetuating the various ists and phobias, partkcularly sexism at the time. It's only natural now that Gamergate 2 would be about calling attention to the various DEI initiatives/ESG agendas that have taken over, diluted, and ironically homogenized the AAA space, and those who do call this out are again called all of the ists and phobes in the book. I may not be gay, but I know this playbook all too well, and unfortunately, the problem is even worse for comic books. It's a small enough industry that they might just be strangling the mainstream comics industry to death. Marvel and DC are on life support, leaving the independent creator owned works, manga, bande dessinee, and crowd funded comics to keep the art form alive. This is what they do to every single group or subculture they try to co-opt for their revolution. As a comic book reader, I have an example of something very analogous to what you were describing, and you might have a guess at what it is if you've either read the comic or seen the TV show adaptation. What the progressives have done to various groups as you've described it is almost an exact reflection of the Whisperers from The Walking Dead. They're basically a tribalistic anti-civilization doomer cult who try to "return to monke," so to speak. They skin zombies and wear their meat suits as camoflage so that they can safely live and travel among the zombies and even manipulate and stealthily weaponize entire horde movements against their enemies. The only other metaphors that might be equally applicable comparisons are the Borg from Star Trek or the aliens from Invasion of the Body-Snatchers. Ironically, the original 1950s Invasion of the Body-Snatchers was a warning about communist infiltration of local communities and the subversion of American minds. Sorry to go on, but having come from a relatively conservative Christian community, it's fascinating to hear you describe the gay community and their situation in light of my own experiences from the outside looking in. The conservative evangelicals, whatever their faults, were kinda right when they were raising the alarm bells durimg the gay marriage debate a decade ago. Whatever your position on gay marriage, they accurately warned about basically all of the ways in which we've unraveled as a society in regards to sexual orientation and gender identity ever since. Their position was that the gay marriage decision at the SCOTUS opened the floodgates, and everything else that we've seen would follow and try to force itself into the center of the mainstream. They may have been more or less correct in their assessment, but if your explaination of the situation is correct (I think you're more or less on the money), the conservative evangelicals were unable to really do all that much about it because they misidentified the culprit and the nature of the problem. I think that what they were observing and warning about was the progressive activism within LGBT communities who were pushing for subversion and full blown degeneracy, towards kids in partifular. Their mistake was confusing the progressive LGBT activist movement with the actual gay, bisexual, and trans people in the community itself. The biggest irony is that even back then when evangelicals were denouncing gay marriage and making these warnings, regardless of whatever they thought or felt about homosexual actovity on moral and religious grounds, they accepted the terms that the actual gay community had previously been striving for. Talk to some of the most supposedly anti-gay and anti-gay marriage Christians out there, and 9 out of 10 of them would completely agree with the sentiment that gay, bisexual, and trans people shouldn't be abused or killed for simply being what they are. Maybe I'm off on some of this, but if you take the time to reas this mini essay, I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts on all of this if you have any.

  1909. You lot are the only ones I watch every day 'cause you're the only ones making decent stuff all the time. It's proper thought-provoking and deep. Plus, you've got real passion about you. I love the message, but I loved it before I found your channel. Just wondering, are people who don't love the message coming to your channel? Seems like that'd be important to know.

  1911. Malcolm has a theological case for individual liberty. I recall it has something to do with increasing (cultural) diversity which is important for humanity's evolution towards god/the ubermensch.
    6
  1912. Have you all done an episode on how pro-natalists (and those who expect long-term economic decline) should approach rural/agrarian vs. urban life? How far should one go to be able to get out of the city? How far out of the city, buying land, being more self sufficient, sustainable agricultural practices, social/cultural considerations etc.

  1913. "overthough"? Not a good look

  1914. Before watching I'm gonna say Ashkenazi jews have been genetically selected to be competent/successful in urban environments. As for guns, maybe they are smart enough to recognise the lethality of the downsides: suicide and having them turned against you. Finally, Kabutzim are versions of socialist communities. Perhaps the one's near Gaza have been infected by the 'progressive mind virus' which seems to deplore personal gun ownership (as opposed to the early 'muscular' socialism of the Deganias).

  1915. Simone youve gotta tell me where you got your corset and shirt. Whered you find em? How much? :D

  1916. gonna watch later, comment for algo. been reading the guides & listening to the podcasts linearly & i really like the show bc you guys often say stuff that immediately stimulates epistemic vigilance, so it's a great resource for practicing careful critical thinking and navigating complexity. your stuff is definitely not slop, but you do seem to have drawn empirical conclusions about eg. inheritability of complex traits that are not at all as well-supported by the relevant research as you often make it seem.. but that's partly why i enjoy listening to you. good exercise.

  1917. Those conversion numbers are worldwide. The majority of missionaries are not in wealthy western countries anymore. Here are my anecdotal numbers from my mission in Brazil, which I think are pretty typical. Number of convert baptisms 20. Number who 15 years later continue in the faith 9. Number who attend the temple (this requires paying tithes) 5. Here is a breakdown of how we came into contact with them. 6 church advertising campaign (they called a number asking for a free DVD or the like). 2 tithe payers. 4 street contacts. 0 tithe payers 0 knocking doors. 10 referrals from members of the church. 6 were family members of church members 4 were friends. 3 tithe payers. Male female ration 1:2. The sister missionaries tended to baptise far more men than the Elders. But they were fewer in number. It came out to about 40:60 if I remember right.

  1924. I remember looking in an mirror and thinking how ginormanous my gut was because i was so clearly fat. I looked at a picture of my self that i took that week a few years ago and i looked straight out of a concentration camp at 5 10 117lbs as a man. The thing that broke my anerrxia was funny enough, alcoholism. I turned 21, got drunk and just forgot i cared about my weight like over nighti just instantly stopped caring. Within a year i was like 200 lbs lol its weird it was like an unhinged nerosis that ran away with its self and simply taking a tranquilizer/depressent instantly stopped it.

  1930. Something to remember about Pagan Roman charity and its God Sarturn is that according to Tom Holland, it was a service given to Roman citizens. Christianity made it more universital and less transactional.
    6
  1931. Well would you look at that, this shows some mild evidence for why you want to marry a spouse with decent genetics. So that your children don't end up making bad life decisions

  1952. Rodney Dangerfield played a trashy real estate developer in the classic comedy Caddyshack and I now whenever I see it, he totally reminds me of Trump. Dangerfield was loud brassy, trashy and more wealthy than the BlueBlood members of the country club. Not to mention he was also amazing at golf! Talk about predictive programming!!

  1954. I am an active member of the LDS Church (generally referred to as the Mormons) and I appreciate the content you share and your perspectives. I believe a large part of how religion affects people is influenced by the ways they were raised within (or not) that religion. Sometimes families will focus more on enforcing the rules and regulations (the policies) than understanding the doctrine that serves as the foundation and guidance for life. I grew up as a very curious and wild child. My family did not try to force me to be strictly feminine (I regularly joined my dad and brothers to go hunting, and I hated shopping). Curiosity was encouraged and I was always asking questions and searching for answers. And a lot of times, I found connections between the more secular subjects and my faith. An astrobiology class in college (at a secular school) strengthened that faith. I nearly went into Anthropology, and have a deep fascination with learning from other cultures and religions. Right now, I currently enjoy the tenets of Taoism and relating them to the doctrine I have as a foundation, that is, that there is a balance to everything (night and day, man and woman) and differences are essential to have this balance. The concept of yin and yang. I would say, the most important thing is to focus on the values being taught than the current house of policies built on them. To me, love and choice are central to my religion. Everyone has the agency to choose how they want to live whether I agree with them or not. It is not my jurisdiction to prevent them from making choices that I don't agree with. But I still make an effort to love those that make the choices I disagree with, because that is the foundation of my faith. Being raised to have a combination of faith and a curious mind has had a huge impact in my life.

  1955. Concentrated power is stronger than spread out power, that is why nepotistic people beat out non nepotistic people. Also it isn't because of lack of trust that people don't pursue nepotism, it is due to moral belief in fairness.

  1956. Honestly, this sounds like such an amazing thing. It kind of feels like the school system is one of those things where everyone knows that it is broken but "it is what it is". I personally remember so many times I got in trouble for asking too much or asking about something that we weren't supposed to learn about yet (even if we were going to learn about it next week or something). Usually on subjects I liked but even then, most of the time in high school (when you could choose your electives), the school would be kind of vague on who could get what classes and why or why not. The future of education will be pretty entertaining considering that, in areas not having children, there will have to be the close down of schools and family-related organizations alike but the areas having children would have to end up leaving the public school system, creating alternatives or changing it, like you both. Now I'm curious about how many problems in society I didn't notice because of that "it is what it is" mentality šŸ˜‚

  1961. As a Catholic theologian I have done the thought experiment about the end of the universe. I felt like I was staring down the void, but I came out the other end more assured that the Christian God must be real and must have an eschatological plan or else nothing whatsoever matters at all.

  1965. Simone, @6:34 , it needs to be shamed. It's pretty degenerate. People used to do a whole bunch of horrible things, just because it happened in the past, doesn't make it something that's OK / non-shameable

  1967. Back in the good old days when I was soloing 6000 meter peaks, Everest was on the agenda, but I just couldn't bring myself to spend that 60K that It would have cost at the time. 60K was a downpayment on an income property like a small apartment building in a pricey coastal city. Now if we know that spending time at that kind of altitude damages cognitive ability, I'd say "oh hell no!"

  1968. Anime clip was hilarious

  1969. Calling someone out for being inauthentic should be the cornerstone of a new rhetoric of shame. Most people think you can't say if someone is authentic or not, but you can know objectively if you test whether beliefs, words, and actions align. If they don't, then not authentic. Also, needing other people to validate your beliefs is inauthentic. See how authenticity is central to all this?
    6
  1970. I could be mistaken, but it strikes me that it's very hard to skip a life stage and go into another stage as if you hadn't missed it. It makes a lop sided person, like the foundation of the house is broken and it's all somehow off. I think of older guys I've met who never dated much or got married, and are by no means trying to act young, but just somehow seem "off" or even a little creepy. Instead, it seems like instead you need to really own that you missed that stage of life, and share of wisdom you gained, either learning from your mistakes or coping with bad luck. Here I think of people in AA who lost out on stages of life because of drinking, but now are helping others not make the same mistake, and share the insights they gained.

  1972. My husband is good at fixing things and maintaining plans, the things I have as short comings really. Itā€™s super sexy when men are bringing home the bacon. We need to raise men up and stop beating them down in society. As a mom of boys and a loving wife, Iā€™m tired of seeing men & fathers being beaten down by society.

  1973. That's what happened to me in 2015/2016, as a centrist I thought I was ambivalent to the election until Trump won and I realized the culture needs this correction.

  1975. Hi, Collins! I've been watching your channel a lot lately. And you inspired me to do an internal exercise of thinking up a religion for myself which strangely enough resulted in me not being able to help myself from following it. It's the most pro-human and pro-natalist cult religion I've ever heard of, even though I've heard of it from myself. Might come off as just ramblings from a mad man. And they are. But here it goes: Essentially I treated designing existence as if I was designing a game from scratch based on having played it for awhile now. So the first concept I'd have to define would be the nature of consciousness, and that would simply have to be the experiencing of a here and now. Nothing beyond that. Now applying it to a singular eternal entity would be terribly lonely, inert and could easily fail catastrophically as there would be no off switch for it, no alternatives and so if it got stuck either phisically or metaphorically it would just be eternal torture. So death would have to be a thing in all this. A way of backing out of an itiration that ran its course of a here and now perceived continuum. So to make it interesting, I'd divide consciousness into several different entities that would themselves divide and generate new entities unique in their code and through the interaction with the environment to generate the illusion of a diverse range of different yourselves. Even though you would essentially experience all of them in different timelines. And generate their existence as whole entities that way. A bit of the psychadelic common description, of "we're all one, man..." As time would appear linear to each during a playthrough, but not in the nature of the game itself. In short, If I were a bored god with eternity to keep me company. I'd want to experience it throught the eyes of finite entities with no knowledge of that fact, which would reset each time and keep themselves company. That's as good and crazy as I can master it through words. Keep up the great work! Love you guys
    6
  1976. Ps that friend was put in a Skinner Box as a toddler.
    6
  1977. My condolences Malcolm. I agree with you, the way the culture handles mourning is not healthy. Death is a fact of life and it's o.k. to be sad, but it's not healthy to be distraught. I lost a few family members so far and I mourn by remembering the best moments I had with them and honouring their memory by doing fun things that they would have enjoyed.
    6
  1978. "I often get sad when I think about Neanderhals going extinct".. so cool someone with the same thoughts I have! Just yesterday I was thinking abour how sad the Sabertooth went extinct. I want to see one IRL (edited to add: with modern binoculars, not up close!)
    6
  1979. Love your parenting style. It makes so much sense but it sounds crazy.

  1980. ā€‹Ā @Mr.Douglas-r2fĀ which part, because I'm black and it's obvious she isn't. You have to be genuinely ignorant to think that. Everything this person said is spot on. Produce the black ancestor. That's all I ask.
    6
  1981. I'm from Canada and I appreciate your coverage of events, though your silence on the trade deficient is pretty deafening, I suspect you noticed how many ways the US makes out ahead, and that the trade deal with have was negotiated by Trump, and was a good deal that's set to expire next year. Even so, it's just good to hear people argue and interpret information without the "lens" of modernity. Like the "lens" was only jammed into society in 2016 or so (2012 technically) and both practically, objectively, and predictably, its a dirty, dirty lens that allows entitled, hand picked elites to live very comfortably, contributing very little of value other than the burden of emotional manipulation and blackmail. I'd like to know what's to be done with these corporate execs that seemed completely fine burning their investor's and employee's futures for BS social causes. Jesus, the Jaguar make over couldn't have come at a worse time could it? If I was Trump or whoever the next PM of Canada will be, I would just send out invited to a big colourful party, located in a ditch, and watch them not find their way out.

  1982. On the topic of appearances one of the reasons I genuinely like Based Camp is that Malcolm and Simone appear in a happy marriage. Quite an interesting guest.

    6
  1986. "James the Zoo" Loveline caller from the late 90s (I remember hearing this call as it first aired when I was in middle school so it had to be pre-2000) Great research material for hearing what James (a Zoophile who has a 'relationship' with his dog, Brutus) thinks about himself, his dog, the Zoo community, and society as a whole. You'll also get to hear both other callers and some of the producers of the show crash out about James and what he claims to be doing. Interestingly, the women over all are much more distressed about James and the dog than most of the male callers or the hosts. You can find it on YT.
    6
  1987. This was overall an episode I can get behind, especially Malcolm's note (marked below as taking place around the 48 minute mark) One aspect that I think is getting lost here is the narcissistic desire to be special and to be seen as special - which explains the dominance of wolves and dragons among fursonas - they want to claim the coolness factor of these animals. The other animals listed at lower rates also make sense in terms of being unique AMONG wolves and dragons, i.e. 9 wolf people are cool because they are wolves, the 1 rabbit person is special because they are the only 1) I've also made the connection between furries and a desire for specific, almost granular, control over their identities. As a human, you develop wrinkles, age, and die. But as an anonymous fursuit, you're immortal. This plays out in plastic surgery addiction, online filters, and of course gender identity. 35:00 Discusses wanting to mate with something unique that doesn't set off disgust signals 48:00 Speech on the total self indulgence of the movement Yo surprise Animorphs reference 1:00:00 Mention Harry Potter houses classification system - the interest of which I think supports both of my above points about 1) desire to be special and 2) desire for specific identity control

  1989. It's always a fun ride when Simone drives.

  1990. Sorry for your loss Malcolm, I hope I can look half as resilient in the face the tragedies that await all of us
    6
  1991. I am an academic (i.e. i have a phd and a fancy title/office at a university) and part of what you learn being on the inside is not to trust the things you read in journals 100%. Currently we are going through something called the reproducability crisis where it turns out people like the president of Stanford faked their data that got him to that position. Historically there were periods where corporate interests suppressed research on the relationship between smoking and lung cancer and the relationship between fossil fuels and climate change. When we see such a huge variance between the lives around us and the research, and that variance is in the interests of the people who have the ability to fund universities, i am suspiscious of the research.
    6
  1992. Listening to this video made me realize how much my personal ethos lines up with what Malcolm describes and how contrary my upbringing was to my nature. Turned out OK. My parents did their best. But it does explain certain difficulties Iā€™ve been having as a parent.

  2000. "The coocoo votes maga" bit was cherry on top of this video.
    5
  2001. The PISA studies by the OECD are useful in a search for improvement, as teachers' unions don't cross country lines. It turns out that Ontario here in Canada is doing relatively well, and I'll pin that on the fact that there are parallel school systems, the public school board and the Catholic school board, which affects incentives in much the same way that charter schools do. Parents who don't like one board can pull their child out and send them to the parallel education system. Each board needs to shape up or else bleed students to the competitor. Further, Ontario lets children go to any school they can get to - they aren't restricted to just the closest the way American kids are. Further, American kids have school funding decided by their local taxes, whereas Ontario levies property tax at the provincial level and funds schools through a Provincial system. There are lots of ways to improve education, and, merely moving America to a system that rhymes with the Ontario system would do wonders.

  2006. I'm jealous for the right for having you. Would love the left to have someone comparable that would have the guts/base temperament to go against the arguments on their "own side" and also avoid complying to general taboos. Even thou I'm hopeful that the crazy end of Palestine stuff(simping for extremely misogynistic cruel people who think you should be killed, torture others and try to sink shipments of goods that help life be more affordable for the poor is unhinged...) and general "peak woke" atmosphere will give rise to a more reasonable leftism that continues from where the good in social democracies ended up in. As a Finn I would like our system be brought to this millenia and in some ways be more libertarian and have less inefficiencies caused by bad bureaucratic incentives. Even if I also love UBI which I do consider to be kinda socialistic policy even thou it has some popularity in the more libertarian/economics pilled right. I feel like if you have an expensive welfare system one might as well do it in a way that doesn't waste resources on stamping applications and also avoids the biggest incentive trap that is going from unemployed to part time work. It's bad to accidentally push people to not seek to become a better economic actor but I also don't like the "just let em starve" -attitude. Btw have you been exposed to Samo Burja? He has a show in the turpentine network and I find his views quite refreshing. Would be interesting to see you talk.

  2007. I know 2 people in their 40s who are suddenly jacked, both of whom were very heavy while they were busy becoming many times over millionaires. They basically both told me (unprompted) that once you have what you want, you look at what's left, and when money quits mattering full stop, you start to focus on what is left. The other thing is both of them do TRT and use steroids šŸ˜‚ No shame in the game but that certainly has been the case in my experience.

  2017. I often think of George Orwell's quote ā€œPerhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood.ā€ I think that what people want in a relationship is consolation, that is, to find somebody who thinks like you and feels like you. On the internet you can interact with a much broader range of people so it is possible for niche communities to form. You can find people who think exactly the same as you on every topic. You can find people who effectively are you. Consolation is more important than the language you speak. If an image makes you happy but makes somebody else sad you have a divide that cannot be crossed. If you and someone else are excited by the same things you have mental unity. Reflecting on the evolutionary benefits of this: If you and a group of people have the same feelings then you always know what they are thinking. Less unknowns, less chaos, less chance for misunderstandings and higher cohesion. People aren't going to do anything unexpected that would endanger the group. The breakdown of these mutual understandings are dangerous for a group. Furthermore, you and them will want the same things and so you are able to coordinate across great distances and time for the same goal. Even without needing to communicate. Imagine you want to infiltrate an organization, somebody who has the same goals as you works as security in the organization and sees you on the security camera or something. Because you share ideals they can choose not to report it or even alter the footage. You never had to tell them to do that but because you share the same mind and desire the same goals you can operate without contact or planning. Not a perfect example but it serves.

  2019. Iā€™m so pleasantly surprised with how this convo turned out. I thought the Malcom and Simone were going to be kinda lefty and then I hear Malcom say he wants to set up an arranged marriage for his kid and I was like ā€œoh thatā€™s a great idea I like this!ā€ (As a gen z). Guess I shouldā€™ve looked at the channel name before I judged; this conversation was awesome

  2021. Aha! The Islam episode is here! I definitely had the same conclusion on islam when I read about it. There is an incredible focus against idolatry yet they completely miss it when it involves the quran itself. It seems almost iresistable to turn phisical objects sacred.

  2027. For Simone's Waepon Needs... May I suggest a blow dart? You take a peace of paper, that is big enough and stiff enough you can use it for arts and craft, roll it to a tube you can blow through easily. You can use soft paint pelets to draw with it. And just so happened to train ar blowing things fast through it. Breath training so you can blow heavier things faster. And you now have an effective gun everywhere. That you can take anywhere, because you like to paint this way. It is *spiritual.

  2029. In the Netherlands, we used to have our own indigenous Holebi culture, we legalised marriage equality before any other country and we had our own culture for Holebi's... Then the American cultural colonisation happened. Specifically, the "California Gay" culture took over sometime during the 2000's, today, there is basically no unique gay male culture anywhere in the world among gays younger than 40, in Russia, China, India, Africa, Etc. all gay culture has become the Californian Gay culture.

  2050. This comment is not about the institute, but I just want to say that I'm addicted to this channel, I like how you discuss subjects and the fact that you don't shy away from talking about controversial issues. That said, I don't agree with a lot of what you say but still I'm addicted because even though you come to different conclusions I like the fact that you have an honest thought process. To say about what I disagree, let's say that, first of all, I'm very against urban monoculture too, also the way you call it is very fit, knowing how to properly name things is an interesting ability, but I see the solution as another form, like for example, you guys are American, against urban monoculture and you search for solutions in an American framework, I'm Latin American and to be honest I don't think North America and Latin America are too different, Latin America is just more Catholic and poorer but other than that things work pretty much the same, for example, both North America and Latin America are monogamous. Anyway, the thing is that our countries as they are currently are broken, but the way I see the solution is to throw culture away and start with something knew while your solutions is working in something that is more in line of what American culture is, actually my goal is not exactly something knew since my philosophy takes a lot from the Hebrew Bible for example, and what is portrayed in the Hebrew Bible is very different from North and Latin America, for example, the people in the Bible is not a monogamist people. I'm not someone who is active in trying to make a movement, maybe in the future although by now I don't have resources to make much of a difference in the world, but anyway, from the people that have more presence I would say someone like Andrew Tate or Turd Flinging Monkey would represent my philosophy and my end goals better than you guys, but still I'm very addictive to watching your content, the way I see both your ideals and the ones of the likes of Andrew Tate are both ideals to advance into the future and avoid being destroyed like the people who are part of the urban monoculture will end up being destroyed, but they haven't been put to a test yet, sure for your guys your way is the superior way but the truth is that only time will tell which strategy to survive and progress is the best. Anyway, as I said, I have my disagreements with you but still your content is very addictive and by interacting with it I feel intelectually stimulated.

  2051. I was going to post this. I am glad I am not the only one who understood this. Once the Yamnaya pushed into eastern Europe though, the basically interbred with the female populations and the local male populations just disappeared.

  2056. I subscribed to yr channel, over this video. (I was leaning that way anyway.) I've never been much into romance novels, but this particular video just strikes me as more engaging than a romance novel. Not only because you're real, rather than fictional characters, but also because your mutual real-life quirkiness makes the 'story' more compelling than a set of invented characters would be. Malcolm, I agree with your take: Simone's (at the time) perception that Malcolm was 'WAY out of her league,' was NOT correct; not even close. You do, in fact, seem off-the-charts incredibly well made for one another. How much so? " 'I am the KEYMASTER!' <said in possessed Rick Moranis voice> 'I am the GATEKEEPER!' <possessed Sigourney Weaver> 'We HAVE TO get these two together.' 'I think that'd be extraordinarily dangerous!' " (And Egon wasn't wrong: it opened a portal to another dimension allowing Gozer to enter.)

  2061. I have 3 daughters. One is a cowboy who hates structure and needs to be self directed and independent. Punishment for her is a challenge, literally.

Her sister, in contrast will feel deep shame over even a mild look of discontent from us. She is also very good at following instructions and loved by teachers. She has a hard time if we give her too much choice. My wife comes from military on both sides and Iā€™m from a family of con artists , gypsies and yeomen farmers. Your division of Dionysian vs Apollonian psychological types and parenting styles is entirely accurate.

  2065. LolšŸ˜‚ the recap of lil Bebe Octavian being enthusiastic but not totally understanding of the holiday is great

  2066. Malcolm covered way more ground and offers actual heterodox in my opinion. Peterson only offers a psychological hermeneutic that conforms a lot with Christian orthodox in my opinion.
    5
  2067. Gave a thumbs-up for "The IT Crowd" reference.
    5
  2068. I can totally understand all of the coverage and warning at the beginning. As pedantic as it might seem, setting definite agreed on boundaries and protocols avoids so many of the hypothetical and stereotypical pitfalls and legal issues.
    5
  2069. Malcolm I'll give you advice for dealing with comments. Imagine they are voices in your head. One's that just insult are just emotions trying to take control, one's with a good argument are your reason testing your ideas. Also have key filter words. If I see cope, or any watered down buzzword it's a sign the person (or voice) is just shouting. Also if you fear getting mocked for an idea, pick an idea so enraging and hold to it. Anytime you're mocked for a serious thought you can look back on the extreme one to compare the mockery. Helps brings things into prospective.

  2070. Another blessed video for our blessed algorithms. Pretty interesting topic too! I was wondering how things were going in Germany after their recent election. Can't wait to catch this properly at work tomorrow morning....

  2071. The afd and cdu also seem to share a voter base, so i think this would be suicide for the cdu to do.

  2072. The reason deportations are lower is because fewer people are crossing the border each day. Most of Bidenā€™s deportations was turning people back at the border. If 95% of border crossings stop, there will be fewer deportations. However, it is the deportations of people established in the country that are the most important.

  2075. So while in the Air Force, I put myself in a bad situation. This is slightly over 20 years ago; STILL to this day, I have no idea how far things went. This particular situation includes alcohol. I thought because these people in my company had my best interest at heart; I let my guard down. I won't give specifics, but I was warned by my supervisor the next day that if I decided to take action against these two individuals I would get into trouble. This is the same supervisor who was in the next room the previous night. There were about 12 of us in total. I tried getting specifics from others, but some either didn't know or wouldn't tell me. Because I have no idea what happened, just as you two stated, I don't have trauma. This lesson has taught me to be a role model & ally with young females, or any females at all, who do decide to drink alcohol with anyone & everyone. Even if it means that they try to attack me; which has happened before. šŸ˜… But it was worth it if it means that they are safe.

  2076. Hot damn, thank you!

  2077. 56:21 "We are beginning to celebrate really seriously for the first time because our kids can get it one of our major holidays like the biggest one future day." 1:02:28 ā€œOur movie line up for future day.ā€ You guys should do a video on future day going more in depth on what it's about and how to celebrate it for those who want to.

  2078. Umm, the SelfishGene and SelfishMeme book come to mind.

  2079. And you are still in a good place in the U.S. still small window of time to turn things around. It is way more advanced in Canada and Europe. We got to prepare for that, but sadly most people don't realize what is happening. They still think that the problem is too many people on the earth. So, thank you for talking about this. It will be very interesting to see what cultural groups survive the next 50 years.

  2080. Like the design! Looking forward to trying it after work. 9:40 I agree with not having a decay feature. Maybe instead of having a punishment mechanism for not revisiting previous nodes, have a reward mechanism instead. Kind of like getting prestige in call of duty when you reach the max level and go back to the start again.

  2082. Guys I'm a big fan. 31 yrs old expecting father. One of many fingers crossed. I made a funny connection you guys might want to check out. I'm an anime Nerd of course. But there's one popular anime called Gurren Lagann (it has a bit too much fan service) but if you get past that and the simple dialog you have a cool story. 2 powerful civilization one fighting to suppress the spread of sentience and life in the universe (the anti-spirals) and the other fighting to spread it. The anti-spirals seem a lot like the urban mono-culture you guys like to mention šŸ˜‚

  2083. Great video!

  2084. Woke is a bludgeon, not a toy
    5
  2085. I think that your right. I am a maths PhD and independandantly i believe something similar. I am not sure that what you believe is a new theory. It's just a modern argument and way of understanding platonism. That's not a criticsm, if something is true there are lots of different ways of arguing for it/discovering it.
    5
  2086. We so love your whole family story, and the love you two share! Absolutely precious! Thank you again!ā¤ā¤

  2088. Never seen this channel before, instant subscribe. So glad people can talk honestly about stuff like this.

  2089. I like the nuanced discussion in this video a lot. ...Everywhere in the Islamic world where a Muslim population has "entered the modern world" (women achieve literacy and become educated), the birthrate has crashed (not stabilized and not gently declining). Iran, Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia. By contrast, pre-modern Islamic states (like Afghanistan) retain a high Muslim birthrate - poor societies need children as an old-age insurance policy, among other things. This suggests that Islamic birthrates within Canada will plummet as well. While that doesn't mean that Canada's future will be smooth sailing, it suggests that the Muslim cheerleader at the beginning of the video, is not correct in his view ("All we Canadian Muslims have to do is to sit back, relax, and let things keep going the way they're going. In 60 years, Canada will be ours.") ā€¢ā€¢ā€¢ā€¢ You guys should really try to get David P. Goldman ("Spengler") onto the podcast as a guest. I would SO love to see the three of you interact. :) (Goldman is the author of the 2011 book, "How Civilizations Die ((and why Islam is dying too))". )

  2090. I watched "You Probably are Not Sentient" right after this one and it feels meaningful somehow. The whole connection between sentience, its role in communication and creating social norms. To touch the apple is to be sentient. A sense of self makes one mortal.

  2091. Same thing said by Chris Williams Freya india on their podcast. People are having less sex whenever they are having usually outside commitment

  2096. I have wanted Edward Dutton to interview Matt Flavel of the Asatru Folk Assembly, he has interviewed Survive the Jive many times, he needs to give this modern church an interview.

  2097. I really like the idea of keeping a file of the genomic data of people who donate. Iā€™m a gay man and have zero urge to have my own kids, but Iā€™m a pronatalist because Iā€™m not an idiot, so it has been hard to imagine a place for myself within the movement, if that makes sense. But being able to donate and try and make help make these changes happen seems like a good way of having a bit of a legacy within the movement. Any thoughts of what would be some other ways to help with the movement if youā€™re gay and donā€™t want kids, but obviously want the species to continue? lol

  2098. Malcolm, it's called Citadel Securities. Market maker manipulates which buys go to off exchange or lit exchange and which sells go to off exchange and lit exchange. You have a separate Citadel Securities company that shorts and buys. If you're aware of the AMC / GME saga. SEC turns a blind eye to what they are doing.

  2101. And sheā€™s got a self-serving self-insert movie coming out (came out?) where she plays a character who transitioned. In the trailer, family and friends say things like ā€œyou seem more comfortable with yourself nowā€, but in every single shot you can see the exact opposite in her face, as if sheā€™s always on the verge of tears. Page is a tough case too because she very publicly became an angry lesbian activist, then married a woman, then transitioned, and her wife left her because she was a man now.

  2102. This comparison is fucking hilarious! <3

  2103. Regarding bottle feeding - is your baby's tongue getting in the way? Not sure if I saw this right, apologies if not, you're probably a pro. BUT if so, try inserting the bottle pointed to the roof of the mouth and levering it down on top of the tongue...that worked for ours!

  2104. I had a field day when I went to see that movie. It's just showed how toxic current feminism is and made everyone sympathize with Ken ( men). It just destroyed feminism LOL šŸ˜†

  2107. YES!

  2108. This podcast helped me to ground my faith. Thank you for the insightful commentary.
    5
  2109. You two are clearly NOT audience captured! :)))

  2110. This was wonderful, thank you.
    5
  2111. Yeah I can vouch for that.
    5
  2112. Service guarantees citizenship, civilians just don't understand.
    5
  2113. Hmm yeah this is why I'm not super religious it's all really self serving at the end of the day and post-hoc explanation of something you can't verify. Like taken to its logical conclusion if I'm able to subjugate you then it must be God's will or all part of "the plan." I see religion as a guide to peaceful living with other humans not something ephemeral or that is spiritual.

  2114. 17:00 Its a confessional
    5
  2115. How can you trust something that never forgets?
    5
  2116. 12:20 What if humans are meant to have kids, so when they dont they go neurotic and express that energy through these mental illnesses instead...
    5
  2117. I've thought for a bit now that you guys are basically heroic anime supervillains. So, when is Malcom gonna put a mop on his head so i can scream and call him Griffith?
    5
  2118. Ā @ChicagoDBĀ  it seems like you're suggesting that someone is lying about the numbers of Amish who actually registered to vote? Sorry for my confusion.
    5
  2119. The specific act of claim denial is taking an action. Active changes to claim denial processes and standards also qualifies as a set of actions.

  2120. I hate the ā€œkids are too expensiveā€ excuse. Itā€™s never a legitimate reason.

  2121. Malcolm's outie loves eating potato chips.
    5
  2122. Oh fuck yeah
    5
  2123. You hit the nail on the head: I'm not listening to you two (three?) because I 100% agree in everything you say, it's because you have some unique takes. And I also agree with you on ShortFatOtaku being a conservative nerd. The internet changed so much that his generation, the basement-dwelling anon is basically conservative now.
    5
  2124. I like that I am getting into this stock early. I am sure it will be big.
    5
  2125. Really interesting video. I have been wrestling a lot with the question of why Iā€™m here. Iā€™m relatively young (29), but also too old to still be figuring this out. Iā€™m married, recently bought a house, and my wife and I are starting to try for kids. I set up my life in a way to optimize for building a family, which is great, but I still feel like there is more. I have a decent job but Iā€™m not particularly passionate about it, and I spend my free time mostly exercising and reading. So Iā€™m not doing badly by any means, but I still have this nagging feeling of what is it for? Simply providing a good life for kids is not enough, there needs to be some additional purpose. Just thinking out loud hereā€¦your videos are insightful and inspire me to find that higher goal. There really is no cultural teaching of how to answer the question, why am I here? Weā€™re taught to follow your purpose, but the hard work is actually finding that purpose. Very little guidance on how to find it.
    5
  2126. Your perspective on the Gottmans is so validating! Thank you. Every time I hear about how they predict the longterm success of a relationship I think they're full of shit. It just doesn't track to what I see in real life
    5
  2127. Simone and Malcolm are great but to be fair, Bryan will talk with nearly anyone and has been on smaller channels like when I interviewed him for Aporia.
    5
  2128. Don't look at me the weeb in the room whose trying to defend Shintoism from Monotheistic stand point.

  2131. Another good video.

  2132. Oh my god you guys are incredible. These are the kind of ideas i have historically brought up in convo and been absolutely crucified for time and time again. This was such a breath of fresh air ā¤

  2133. If you're really interested in the variety of LDS cosmological beliefs, Stuart Parker's 2010(?) PhD dissertation, "History Through Seer Stones", is a must-read.
    5
  2134. This is one of the most interesting podcasts with new original ideas. It should be way more popular, but for some reason it is stuck in the algorithm ghetto. Keep going one day this podcast will be way bigger.
    5
  2135. Most interesting episode of late! I believe there is a book published some years ago that makes the argument schizophrenia and autism are at opposite ends of the spectrum. The author of the book was on The Jolly Heretic channel
    5
  2136. Awesome! I think itā€™s amazing you took this suggestion of mine up. Wow!

  2137. Very cool! Thanks for the visit.šŸ˜Š

  2138. Nailed it on the teachers. Pay is great when adjusted for vacations, side gigs, lack of emergencies or ā€˜on callā€™. Health careā€¦. Pensionsā€¦.

  2139. Ā @SimoneandMalcolmĀ  my teenage girls (very normie left kids) have watched and read a bit of your books too, recently my 17 year old decided to stop identifying as nonbinary after going down the anthropology rabbit hole based on some discussions we had concerning your content. So fyi your good information can change minds even if the audience isn't naturally receptive. Not that i had any problem with them having their opinions, I just wanted them to question their internal narrative
    5
  2140. So the mumps? Yeah I had that. It sucks. It really sucks.
    5
  2141. I quit my job seven years ago to stay home with our son. I homeschool him now and donā€™t regret leaving the work force one bit. We are nearing a season of providing elder care as well so I will just transition to that when needed.
    5
  2142. This episode is genius
    5
  2143. Regarding splitting the channel: As I'm wandering around through podcastland, I tend to gravitate to creators who communicate interesting ideas structured in ways that are easy for me to learn from. This structure is some combination of the linearity of their ideas plus their base assumptions plus their lexicon. If I find someone whose thoughts don't jive with mine (e.g. Joe Dispenza), I have to really want to learn from them about a specific topic or I just skip. When I find someone who can say interesting things in interesting ways about topics that I care about, I usually give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that they have interesting things to say about topics that I don't (currently) care about and will try their other content. TBH Tom and Lisa Bilyeu have hurt their brand by fracturing Lisa's show out to a separate channel, and their Relationship Theory solosode channel was amazing but never picked up the numbers from their main channel because it was separate. (Though Lisa's channel is mostly trash content searching for new ways to blame your partner...)

  2144. You ABSOLUTELY have to dress up as krampus and scare the crap out of your kids if theyā€™ve been naughty.
    4
  2145. ā€‹@SimoneandMalcolm they could lack the correct vocabulary. I've seen people use "religious", "manic", and "unreadable" for both me and people who exhibit high energy and extreme emotions in a positive direction (joy, anger, eager) since they can't explain the source of those powerful emotions.

  2146. good job being professional malcom/simone, pick your battles wisely

  2147. That is true. What the origins of Kabbala are or arenā€™t can be disputed, but it wasnā€™t and still isnā€™t very much central to the religion.

  2148. Love me some Paul Van derklay
    4
  2149. Pretty good breakdown. Iā€™d love to meetup someday or maybe our sons will cross paths. Maroon-Scottish highlanders of southern Appalachia is a whole thing. FYI: Escaped slaves formed Maroon settlements in the lowland swamps AND in the southern Appalachian Mountains.

  2150. Podcast topic request: What are some good parenting books? How does one learn how to be a parent, and what psychological parenting strategies are effective? I have some notion that there are a great many mediocre parenting books, and a pointer toward the extra-good books would be great. Anything ranging from conception and pregnancy care tips to getting teenagers out of the house. Also maybe a break-down of all the different repro-tech available now and in the near future (and maybe a quick set of ballpark numbers on how expensive these repro-tech treatments are currently). Much of your channel right now is "let's define and defend pronatalism", which is on-brand for you guys as intellectual advocates, but some boots-on-the-ground tips for parenting would be super useful for those convinced by your arguments.

  2152. No one wants to talk about physical attractiveness and how it factors into ā€œprivilegeā€ Same with how neurotypical a person is Same with socioeconomic strata

  2153. 20:12 This is a perfect example of why/how Christianity was able to grow, even in Nigeria (my country) and much of Africa. The welcoming, kindness and hopefulness in it is why. The best way to describe it is winning through compassion. Even my grandfather who was raised a pagan converted to Christianity because his mother's family, who were Christian, treated him with so much kindness and he was inspired by their faith. They themselves were treated so kind by the British evangelicals of the time and that made them convert earlier.

  2154. Damn, man! That last portion about Good and Evil was right on point. This is exactly the way I think about it, and why philosophy is all important.

  2157. I'd be super interested in Malcom's interpretation of biblical history in book form
    4
  2158. I can sort of understand where he was going with this, and I can definitely respect him for actually going to Ukraine and trying to do something to support Ukraine instead of just perpetually whining online. But to me he looks quite mentally unstable in that interview video that's floating around.
    4
  2159. Okay, but there is room to make exception for people who get rich from other people's suffering though...

  2160. no Malcolm nooo, Simon is right. Just stay in the white house. What your trying to do has the opposite effect.

  2161. Cant wait to utilize this!

  2162. I love the Why Files too.

  2163. The biggest anti-genius Iā€™ve seen is Jorden Peterson, that guys is so fond of using big words to confuse the listener into thinking heā€™s something profound when the content is almost exclusively basic self-help.

  2164. How is he so wholesome!!! I love this guy, and you two, the new conservative movement is becoming so welcoming

  2172. Thank you for the constant content that you put out. I appreciate your hard work and dedication no matter how controversial as it might be towards some as I've noticed of lately.

  2175. Thank you for articulating this thought! I have seen a few responses to the bear meme that are touching upon this, though usually too focused on trhe statistics and trying to explain it logically that you'd be safer with a random man. I do feel like trheyunderstand the underlƶying danger of this subcounciously but haven't articulated it as well as the two of you just now. And it culminates in a situation as the mother that is disugsted by touching her son. Though for 4:26 (and I maybe over-interpreting things) this guy might not be too happy in his relationship. Notice how he stated: At least I know what the outcome would be with a bear!

  2176. This is not the video i expected around this time. For sure not something I would have searched for. But here we are, lets watch! :D

  2177. Can't wait to watch the vid Claude thought was too spicy..

  2183. Bro, I have been saying this for years.

  2184. I WAS THERE. I was on the frontlines of all these flamewars. What I find interesting is that I went from being an atheist > to anti-fem > to anti-redpill pagan. I'm a crystal person, but I didn't leave christianity for any reason other than boredom with it.

  2188. What an awesome crossover!
    4
  2189. To Simone's expressed desire for a trope for an effective politician who also holds his constituency in contempt, I can think of two characters: Derek Jacobi's senator in "Gladiator" and Tommy Lee Jones in "Lincoln" (the scene in the basement of the White House where Lincoln tells him to cool it with the radicalism)
    4
  2190. While on the topic of Wicca, can you please include the Norse larping that is the made up "religion" of ƅsatru? The way they have made up an entire genre of muscle based off it Mongolian throat singing and posing it as norse is but one of their many cringeworthy mistakes.
    4
  2191. Omg I can't! XD That Indiana Jones Cut Is the best thing I've ever seen in my life!
    4
  2192. It's not love if it's unrequited. It's lust or obsession, but not love. The only "love at first sight" is when you or your wife/partner have a child, together. Immense feelings of love and protectiveness. Instantly. The best love builds over time. One friend put it this way: Love isn't rolling in the hay. Love is your wife making extra good mukluks to protect your feet out on the ice, or making your favorite food for dinner. Love is you busting your ass working on the house, so your wife has a better home, or washing her car without being asked.
    4
  2193. THIS WAS PHENOMENAL šŸŽ‰

  2194. I absolutely feel the weight of this era. People who donā€™t have no/suppressed/failed instincts.

  2196. The set! It's amazing! Looking sharp, I love it

  2197. From what Iā€™ve seen between the both of you, I can gather that your pronatalist philosophy is both free and practical. It doesnā€™t force people to do or act in certain ways, but it also takes human nature into account. In a very limited way, eugenics isnā€™t a bad idea. Getting rid of mental illness is something we, as a society, should be striving towards, and eugenics are one of the extremely few ways we can be proactive in combating such traits from manifesting in people. This idea can be taken too far, as all ideas can, but the logic is sound. Just donā€™t force people to do such a thing. Let the data support positive trends and predict negative trends. Honestly, an idea being taken too far is how fascism, communism, and current progressive ideology become the way they are: lack of moderation and enforcement of the most extreme version of said ideologies.

  2199. I just learned so much about this whole "keyword" ecosystem. I didn't even know it existed, I work in a totally different industry and this is way outside my wheelhouse. Just as an aside, as a non-Christian, I don't see why this would be offensive, it looks like the best bang for the buck in online advertising.

  2202. You can speed up caramelizing onions by adding a bit of water at the start. Cook's Illustrated recommends quite a bit. I use it in shots (2 tsp, 1 oz) to generate steam throughout the onions. The steam brings the temp of all the onions to 200 F quickly and boils off so you can start the higher heat caramelization faster. You may need to add a few shots to boost the wilting/heating through.

I find myself leaning away from the more popular titles as Anime gets more popular into stuff from the past I know most current fans aren't aware of (that I think are still good BTW).

  2209. As a fellow autistic germaphobe: it makes 0 sense how biased I am towards people I'm attracted to. I wouldn't share a plate with my family, but ate the whole bowl of leftover soup that cute girl from high school offered me on a ski trip and loved it. I will not put my card or keys in my pocket after I dropped them on the floor or touch anything with the hand I picked it up with until I've properly washed it, but when my crush picks up a folder I dropped and gave up on and hands it to me, I'm mostly fine. I'm also sensitive to sounds. I can't stand to hear people whisper whom I'm not attracted to, but if I am, I love it. It's like a little override that allowed my ancestors to reproduce regardless of their weird han-gups.

  2217. the point about etiquette being invented in the french monarchy at about 16:00: I think there's a tendency for proponents of etiquette to gloss over the fact that some of it is basically just a hazing ritual among elites that's continuous. I never bothered with etiquette myself, so I can't point to specific examples, but I'm pretty sure there's stuff that is as silly as "when entering the dining hall, always step into it with the right foot first". Good manners are important, but etiquette, and especially royal etiquette, is for psychos.

  2231. How would its novelty make it impossible? It's certainly true at least among certain strata of Western populations. Differences between different cultures would also not make it impossible within the spectrum of each respective culture. The only thing to quibble with would be whether the definitions of traditionally masculine and feminine comport to the actual trend. Certainly it seems that female leaders in business, politics, and academia including areas like feminism are more masculinized including often having a history of autistic traits

TINSELL Techno-optimism (both biological and for Ai) Intercultural diversity (ie anti-censorship) Nerd culture Space travel Education reform/experimentation Lassie faire economics Laconic sexuality Ok that last oneā€™s a bit of a stretch, but close enough! And I dunno, laconic is kinda the approach to sex -- just direct, and unimpressed. Also together this makes for a really good acronym. It is both a word, and so readily pronounceable, but spelled with the extra L, and so easily distinguishable. And it sounds good with the various suffixes you might apply to it: He supports tinsellism Sheā€™s a tinsellite Their family utilised the tinsellic proto-cultural set in designing their cultivar.

  2259. I only have one child so far, and she's a baby, but I'm practicing low-effort parenting in a few ways. First, time spent with me is just her watching what I'm doing, usually in a face-out carrier, letting her touch what I'm touching, or sitting on the floor while I prep food or do dishes. She eats what we eat, no baby food. She has no fancy toys, just some rattles and blocks from a thrift store. I'm making a space in the yard where she can hang out and watch bugs and birds. I narrate to her what I'm doing. We go on walks. I don't react to her crying with anything other than checking her physical needs, seeing if she's hungry, etc and as a consequence (i think) she doesn't cry much unless something is actually wrong. She seems genuinely happy to see me or daddy but doesn't throw a fit when I put her down (unless she's sick, which seems to increase her need for comfort quite a bit, in which case I'll hold her a lot). On the occasions that she gets hurt, i check the injury and otherwise just look at her with a neutral expression until she stops crying, give her a smooch and then carry on as if nothing happened. She's too young to understand "brush it off" but it seems like resiliency can be learned early, because other people have commented that she gets over stuff like bonking her noggin or pinching her finger very quickly. It's very hard to not cry when she cries, but I'm doing my best to be a good role model for her.

  2267. My fav internet couple :) The submission of any woman at the core is a primary drive in women to feel safe, so she can feel their children are safe. Women whom have husbands whom are extremely competent, financially stable, physically capable, and present enough so she doesnā€™t have to be forced to live out of time.. women are generally poorly evolved to live anywhere other than the moment. How could she feel she and her children are safe if she is forced to try have forward thinking as well as living in the moment.. the two are adversarial and always will be but when balanced between the two natures, the two time (shift/phases etc) it works best for the family unit and especially the children. Women are described as childlike for existing in the moment and men are described as not living in the home resent stuck in past or dreaming stuck in the future.. The woman already posses evolved psychological adaptions that advantage their sex in manipulating men whom have physical and other characteristic advantages over them. A very delicate balance indeed. End of the day.. men and women.. quit trying to gain power over the other.. we are supposed to do what is optimal for our children their survival and raising into stable productive adults is the true meaning of life the only thing that should matter to both sexes ā€¦

  2270. I'm glad you noticed how socialist portions of the Right are. One of my biggest concerns with Vance is that there's a pretty high chance that's who he is. Yes, he has ties to Thiel and worked in venture capital, but I've seen no sign that he won't go for a large administrative state, protectionism, etc; quite the contrary. Between the Natcon people and the right wing billionaires, I'm currently thinking it's the latter who are more likely to be the ones not understanding what they're being sold in this pick. I'm generally fairly worried that socialism is rising in both parties. Most people don't understand economics. Not looking forward to the changes in the next few decades to the United States if nothing happens to change that. The GOP of the past several decades was better on economics than the GOP of today. Along the previous lines, I would caution against confusing your portion of the online community for it in its totality. You not hanging out in a region does not mean that they don't matter. And so I'd think it better to describe what you are talking about as referring to a swath of the modern right than it in its entirety. And, of course, not everyone is as online (or, online in political spheres), which also affects how they process things. You seem to be describing the Natcon people as the same as conservative elites. They are a class of conservative elites, but they are not all of them. I would guess that your typical congressman does not look the same as the Natcon people. I think you're underestimating how popular a porn ban would be. It would still be unpopular, but at least, before its enactment, more people would be in favor of one than you seem to think, including a lot of Christians. I found the Dawkins comment that you referred to interesting, as it's far weaker than the sorts of arguments that Malcolm himself referred to about the Arkā€”it's not really in any way inconsistent or preposterous to believe in the virgin birth of Christ from a theistic perspective, and his acting as if it is indicates that his hangups are not merely, as you put it, ultralogical.

  2271. In ancient Mesopotamia and the Levant and Egypt, it used to get tons of rain when Earth was at perihelion in northern summer (increase insolation 8%) and aphelion in winter 11,000 yrs ago. Also Earth tilt was greater so ITCZ rainfall came farther north in summer/fall due to that also. Later the area dried out and they had to rely on springs with water coming out of the ground (and later wells invented in India). The first city was built near the springs near headwaters of Euphrates River.

  2273. WRT Simones's comment at the end: my experience too is that self-denial is very different from subsequent discovery. Self-denial is a tricky thing. A little of it seems to reflect some executive control over impulses (ie it is a sign of executive control rather than a generator of executive control). Too much leads to things like 'denial of reality', 'rationalising' and an inaccurate focus on that which is being denied. While the 'joy of discovery' suggests that, in hindsight, one should have investigated sooner.

  2285. Longshot request... Malcolm once mentioned that he watches videos about cryptids and other things. Could we hear his thoughts on these subjects? Maybe in conjunction with looking at how society creates stigma and how the future may affect that dynamic? Or maybe as part of discussing "outlier" scientific investigations? I'm sure you're creative enough to find a suitable context. Thanks! You're doing great! Looking forward to the Go Fund Me for Simone's flights.

  2286. The idea that women would be into a guy who seems passionately convinced of something heterodox fits my experience, and, that sounds like a prediction failure of a model where tribal people need to fit in or die. Perhaps there's a drive to get in on the ground floor with a mate who is upwardly mobile due to their soon-to-be-popular idea, or maybe talking deeply and passionately about something correlates with fitness in a male for other reasons.

  2291. Appreciate you listening! I absolutely agree, of course, that individual apostles do not establish doctrine. The letters (to Lowry Nelson) were signed by the full first presidency at the time and were clear that they were not establishing doctrine, only restating commonly accepted doctrine. I've reproduced the relevant portion below: "From the days of the Prophet Joseph even until now, it has been the doctrine of the Church, never questioned by any of the Church leaders, that the Negroes are not entitled to the full blessings of the Gospel. "Furthermore, your ideas, as we understand them, appear to contemplate the intermarriage of the Negro and White races, a concept which has heretofore been most repugnant to most normal-minded people from the ancient patriarchs till now Godā€™s rule for Israel, His Chosen People, has been endogenous. Modern Israel has been similarly directed. "We are not unmindful of the fact that there is a growing tendency, particularly among some educators, as it manifests itself in this area, toward the breaking down of race barriers in the matter of intermarriage between whites and blacks, but it does not have the sanction of the Church and is contrary to Church doctrine." "Faithfully yours, "(signed) George Albert Smith J. Reuben Clark, Jr. David O. McKayā€ There is no serious dispute as to whether these points were established doctrine at that time; the idea that they were simply policy emerged retroactively. I wouldn't describe my reaction to the letter as being offended. Rather, it made me realize the personal moral risk I was taking by letting the LDS frame influence so much of my thought process.

  2292. I'm going to ignore the massive technical issues with audio and music in this video because seeing your homestead and watching your kids play, and geek out over the rain made me incredibly happy! how refreshing it is see children acting like children instead of glued to a screen or strung out on Ritalin.
    4
  2293. Gentle parenting only works with gentle-natured kids, and those are rarer than hens' teeth. Even the sweeter, quieter toddlers in my kids' friend group have their stubborn streaks. Also, Malcolm is completely right about letting kids cry when they're not in any actual danger or distress. If you let them cry, sooner or later they'll figure out that the crocodile tears don't get them their way and they'll start trying more sophisticated tactics to accomplish their goals. "Hmmmm, is THAT getting you what you want?", and "try again in English, I can't understand upsetti spaghetti" are perennial responses to little-kid tears/tantrums in our house. Upsetti Spaghetti is not what's for dinner here.

  2296. Good breakdown of IRL versus virtual human connection. I would add that leisure class spreading across economic strata enables this phenomenon.

Most of the time in the military (on deployment in this example) you're bored off your ass, doing nothing. Pulling guard, waiting around, on patrol where nothing seems like it'll happen. Day in and day out for months at a time. And then suddenly the shit hits the fan. And it keeps happening. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Then bam. Very unpredictable.

  2317. Inherited genius? Smartest people in the world? You two must surely know about Edward Witten. His siblings are super successful. Son of a theoretical physicist, Edward Witten actually was not taught anything beyond basic calculus in his childhood, and as an undergraduate, he pursued non-mathematics / physics / hard science paths. Then he abruptly decides to go to graduate school in applied mathematics and then physics, and he's catching up by taking undergraduate quantum mechanics, with his fellow students wondering why is he even allowed in the program. But in one year he goes from knowing basically nothing about quantum mechanics to total mastery. And he eventually crosses over into mathematics to win a Fields Medal, for great work before the age of 40.

  2320. This is an episode I've been waiting for a while. Arguably if you have intelligent enough knights you can ease off on the deontological worldview for them, and instead switch to what I would call the 'questing' model for knights. Consequentialist, but dedicated towards defined goals set by kings that are looking further ahead than the knights. At the core that would still be a system bound by rules. It's an important caveat to add to Malcolm's point at 13:10 I feel, as he presents a very abstracted way to look at life here. In a vacuum, it is correct that you want the kngihts to bring about a king's vision. However in reality the leader will not be able to spot everyting everwhere, and if an opportunity presents itself to a knight they should capitalise properly. Having an honor code and a quest view seems a lot more applicable to reality. See it as a guidance system for a larger group of knights, something that allows them to function as a proper army. Junior officers or in other words, higher ranking knights need to lead small bands below them properly while the Kings are involved with the larger picture. Or let's put it into practice in a non war setting. Generally you will not have an engineer that's designed a bulldozer standing over the shoulder of the machinist making the parts that go into the bulldozer. What goes into turning a block of metal into a functional part is complex, a capable machinist with twenty years experience will still learn new tricks every day. They are however also very much in a knightly occupation: A machinist shapes metal to fit a grander design, and to call back to the example of Bezos no machinist is going to create a company like Amazon. Ergo not only is the 'king' in this case unlikely to know what the knight's considerations are (though this is not impossible) there are likely shortcuts that the machinist can offer to reach a similar result the engineer hasn't thought of. Honor is important due to the limits it places on the amount of damage knights do to each other when they disagree with a member of their own tribe. People can scoff at the idea due to thinking only of those times honor limited damage to an out group, but consider the following: honor is just another way of phrasing high trust society. A genuine high trust society is enormously more productive, capable and resillient than a low trust one. I'm thinking of writing a full on essay in support of the natalist movement and it's about how to draw in blue collar workers and such to the cause. The high tech states that you (as in, the Collins) predict will need someone to service the machines, and I'm unable to find much on what your vision is for selecting and promoting capable blue collar workers who can reprogram machines, maintain them, and improvise solutions in case of unexpected breakdowns. Those will happen and you will need someone to go and turn wrenches when the moment comes. Much as I like to learn from my plumber if he does maintenance on some of my stuff, in the end if shit goes sideways it is going to be vital to have an expert on hand who actually can lay pipe. Penny for your thoughts?

  2321. ''You've trapped them.'' THANK YOU, these are the exact words I use to describe the Aboriginal Australian situation. I thought I was mental. Huge ongoing issues in parts of Australia (mainly Alice Springs) with the Aboriginal people because they aren't allowed to fail, nor are they held to the same standard as any other Australian in parts of Australia. Now they are literally stuck in a cycle of mediocrity which is going to be absolutely brutal to them when it finally snaps. I'm in Victoria and last year I trained an Aboriginal Australian, one of his first sentences to me was something along the lines of ''I don't want to be on welfare, I want to be my own man and I want to treated like everyone else.'' Unfortunately he went crazy after his son died of a drug overdose and he quit in a blind rage. But it spoke volumes to me that he said that when I first started training him for the job (garbage truck driver, side loading). People now look upon Aboriginal people with suspicion and fear due to the woke bastards that have stuck them in a position of weakness so that they may be manipulated and used as a cudgel.

  2325. I think that was a really interesting point about the overuse of "Rag-to-Riches" stories. We are so ego driven now we are told if you want to have an interesting story WHEN you become famous you have to have a shitty home life. So it pits everyone into looking for problems in their upbringing for their future memoirs they believe they will have.

  2326. Regarding "taking responsibility is the ultimate burden and relinquishing responsibility is the ultimate luxury" - Malcolm has been saying this for a while, and it just hit me uniquely this time in a way that stuck. I'm remebering a quote that I heard from Tony Robbins: "Good times create weak people. Weak people create bad times, Bad times create strong people. Strong people create good times." Having been listening to the personal development podcast space for a while, I'm hopeful that there's a rising counterculture of high-agency, high-responsibility people who are willing to lean into hard things. One of my hopes was that, in a post-scarcity society-- If no human needs to sit in the driver's seat of an 18-wheeler to transport goods, if no human needs to work at a fast-food restaraunt to serve the food, and if all the stores use self-checkout --- Then won't these bottom-class urban workers be free to do useful things with their lives? Industrial agriculture was necessary to provide for the modern knowledge-work economy of today, so what will happen when the next generation of technology frees up even more workers? On the other hand, I have some personal friends who are stuck working in food service and retail because they chose not develop specialized employable skills. Currently food service and retail are jobs for unskilled workers, and when these unskilled jobs dry up, maybe these people will just retreat from the economy (sitting on the couch all day) instead of taking up the burden to learn skills. One of the other things that I've been thinking about: In our current era of scale, it only takes a few prolific content creators to keep a million people sedated in front of YouTube. It only takes a few large-scale manufacturers to create digital devices to the masses. A few intellectuals (especially Peter Diamandis) have said that people will turn to creative self-expression in a post-scarcity world, but I'm scared that people will choose to be infantilized with media instead. This is a battle that I'm having with myself, that maybe I'm spending too much time with media and need to create space for silence in my life.

  2329. I think itā€™s misguided to conflate ultra progressives with the urban monoculture. The urban monoculture is a lot more widespread and a lot more powerful than ultra progressives. It allows them to exist and occupy power in so far as that is useful to it (because it helps convert the offspring of neighbouring groups with healthy birth rates or it helps bring down their defences). But they are not the same.

She never hesitate send home a ā€˜difficultā€™ private paid child. They had to pay regardless if they were there or not to hold the spot. But if a state paid child was crazy it just became unfortunate for everyone.

  2340. "Why are people not grateful despite having so much?" I think lack of perspective is the biggest reason but there are also others. Don't want to write a too big wall of text thou. I went from feeling like Finland is the neutral starting point with nothing that special(despite theoretically knowing that others have it way worse) to kinda wanting to cry from gratitude as holy shit am I free from the violent force of the world just because I was born here. Insane opportunities! That happened because I spent a lot of time learning about life in other places and in the past. And at some point it made me look at my life here differently. We also tend to in general calibrate to whatever are our circumstances. It's not easy to appreciate modern marvels when people accidentally raise each others to view shit like running water, electrical gadgets etc. as nothing special. Many things about modern life are still also pretty bad for our minds so I don't think it's fair to only pay attention to the "cmon shitters, be grateful!" -side. Boring and annoying work without context that gives it meaning is pretty damn soul killing and workplaces are often very unhealthy social environments. Monkeys like us don't enjoy being bossed around by people who we don't feel have earned the right to override our free will.

  2353. It would be interesting to know if there are many instances of Anorexia & Transgenderism in Amish communities. Also: could it be that some of the posters of the more extreme 'election melt-down' videos are suffering from a similar mental pathology based around the political identity they've constructed for themselves? Progressive voters are often very invested in identity politics and gender ideology and it's notable that we don't see similar self-destructive public performances by conservative voters when their side loose elections.

  2370. 5:57 Selling land and buildings is the biggest source of corruption in local governments in developing countries. The local government giving unused land or building (Old unused office) to be managed by Local government -owned companies.On the Reason of reducing expenses . But the regional company did not want to Don't need the land and sold the land to The company owned by the mayor to establish a mall. Selling government buildings without planning can have bad consequences in the future. Especially when the government needs new buildings.

I gotta be honest, when you started going into how DW discovered Brett, it honestly sounded like them looking for a "conservative diversity hire", which I'd argue is equally as demeaning as any other DEI hire. Moments like this and the crap that happened between Crowder and DW a year or two ago are reasons why I'm happier that I started to avoid growing parasocial relationships online. People feel like they need to stand up for people knowing 5-50% of the details and rarely wait to hear all the details because bosses and corpos are seen as evil by default by too many people, without understanding the obligations each have and the difficulties each have to the public and each other.

  2401. I enjoyed this not for Malcolm's content but for Malcolm and Simone's interactions. So like my wife's and mine. I don't care about spiral dynamics (so little do I care, I haven't bothered googling it because it will just be another guy pontificating about how they think the world should be). Malcolm's ideas are somewhat interesting because I know my conception of the world is somewhat similar. OTOH I doubted his line of thought would take me to an unexpected place. So it was only towards the end when Simone opined that Malcolm's presentation was all very good but where was the utility in it that I actually took notice. My wife has said similar things to me when I "expound". And then would have said "So what are you avoiding just now? ie "what ought you be doing instead of this distraction? How about cleaning that bit of drain before the snow melts" (or some other practical task).

I wonder though how the kids of the people who never showed their kids on any type of social media will feel about it. I had some family members like that and it was very weird that other family members would post an occasional birthday photo or something of their kids on Facebook or Instagram, and the privacy nuts effectively looked like they are ignoring their children's existence. How their kids are going to feel about that? It's almost like leaving your kids out of family functions as if they don't exist. Wouldn't that be hurtful?

  2439. Finnish language only has one gender neutral pronoun instead of the usual 2 gendered ones. And we don't even really use it as it sounds too formal, autistic or condescending so we just say "it" and in general use the names of people more than in English. So it was kinda funny when Finnish lefties started to use English pronouns in their social media profiles where they speak Finnish... All the trans discussions were hilariously stupid too as we have one word for both sex and gender(gender is "mental/social sex"). So people on the left and right REALLY talked past each other as one means sex and the other gender. Happy that that we don't need to deal with the pronoun drama but man did we get some historically low quality discussions xD

  2455. As a former bartender, Raves, nightclubs and the like are akin to a modern drum circle or spirit dance. The music, drinks etc put you in a trance like state and evoke a kind of euphoria, often with the help of real drugs too. Personally, I am social but donā€™t care about others perceptions of me, so I just pretend Iā€™m alone and feel the music. I enjoyed it. But didnā€™t actively use it for mate-seeking.

  2458. Knowing Simone is such a science fiction fan, I suggest she read The Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson. In the book, the world had largely moved away from nation states and into decentralized city states or micro-nations. It is similar in many aspects to his previous book Snow Crash but seems to take place about a generation further in the future. His exploration of the community the protagonist is from is especially relevant as it is a Neo-Victorian community specializing in Nano-technological creation of artificial islands for the very wealthy. This community is structured much like Victorian England with a very distinct class system, With the elite "Equity Lords" being at the top tier. The main character is really a middle class functionary, a minor nano designer who has aspirations to elevate his station for the sake of his family. Much of the story revolves around the illegal creation and use of Neo Victorian technology at the behest of a high ranking Lord in exchange for elevation of his status. A good read even if you are not into science fiction because of the themes he explores.

  2461. As a person who invests in stocks as their main investment, I significantly benefit from society being totally built around corporate shareholder profit. That said, even I would prefer a society that finds a way to make quality education and training accessible for any age range. At some level, that has to include making corporations responsible to share the burden in facilitating that. Yes, a lot of education is available on the internet free at this point, but I think more types of learning styles, including hands on, need to shift away from the rot of classism, debt and usury. Innovation can and would come from the dregs of society if nourished early enough.

  2462. My grandfather abides by Simoneā€™s money philosophy with his adult children and itā€™s been great. If one of his sons needs money everyone gets a check for that amount.

In regards to Noahā€™s Ark, thereā€™s a museum in Kentucky that did a recreation with displays to how the animals were kept, food storage, and the physics of how everything functioned, as well as how certain ways the earth aged or the evolution of languages (as examples) match with things noted in the Bible. I highly encourage anyone who wants something to better envision what the ark looked like to visit the museum.

  2471. My husband and I are kind of outliers because we are living very frugally (income is average), definitely making a lot of sacrifices and have to be very financially austere raising 4 children. My husband's job does not provide health insurance benefits for example, so everything we need is always forked over out of pocket at cost. That's probably the biggest downside. My husband is the sole source of income (until the little ones are a little older and I find my hustle or use my own college degree at some point), luckily, he works from home, which allows him to set his own hours so it's definitely not "Trad" though I'm the one housekeeping/cooking, child-rearing, etc. but he's very involved as well. It's a nice balance for us. When I was growing up, I had a very large extended family and was often passed from one Aunt or Uncle or grandparent while my parents worked, and there was so much involvement with extended family. There really isn't any of that now. My great-grandparents and their family were farmers and doctors in a small town, and they had "help" that lived on the property and were part of the family. I have a photo of them, 18 people in all and they include the cook/nanny and the farmhands. It's interesting to think houses were very busy places back then, definitely not a nuclear family.

  2475. 22:52 I totally agree with your take on the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil not needing to be magical. You'll be interested to know the word translated evil is not one related to sin. It is the kind of word you might say of food that's gone off: "don't eat the grapes, they've gone bad". It's not an inherently moral term, so "good and bad" is probably more faithful). However I think you're off when you say that this makes sense of God saying not to touch the fruit. God never said don't "touch" the fruit. Eve says that to the snake, but it implies that either Eve is exaggerating, or that perhaps Eve received the command from Adam (since eve had not been made when the command was given by God) and that Adam had produced a pharisaical guard rail for Eve that was more restrictive than Gods intention. Again I'd really love to get on a call with you guys!

  2489. I believe that Malcolm raises excellent points regarding roman culture and paganism. For those interested in pagan philosophy, cosmogony and overall feel a strong attachment to continuing these ancient practices like me, this is a good episode to reflect on the failings of paganism, accept them, and adopt better practices while keeping the philosophical essence and spiritual root, rather than the heinous cultural practices that developed downstream of pagan practices like the terrible treatment of women and infanticide. I think this can be done easily, as a good thing about paganism is that it is constantly and fluidly changing according to its practitionersā€™ beliefs and environment, as it is not restricted by a biblical text that may no longer reflect reality given enough time. So long as the essence of sacrifice (through offerings) as communing with the divine is maintained, paganism may be reformed and adapted as seen fit by its community (obviously, child and human sacrifice are out of the question, whereas animal sacrifice would require a lot more discussion and oversight today).

  2498. The people who think the demographic collapse will solve the housing crisis are pretending we live in a free market where the price of housing is determined by organic supply and demand. Experimental monetary policy creates an artificial demand that is separate from, and greater than, the organic demand of people who want to buy houses to live in. The demand from people who want to buy homes to start families could evaporate almost entirely and the demand from debt fueled speculation would still keep housing unaffordable.

Even thou I'm also really frustrated by what US progressives ended up doing to the western left that hopefully starts to recover soon... At least the US election is now over so maybe the channel is now a little less of the doomsday kind compared to this stuff.

  2505. tldr - being in a more left-leaning environment, you'll be highly exposed to the critiques of right wing figures, and underexposed to critiques of the left. It's not that your own views change that much, but you might overestimate how much left wing politicians views align with them, and overestimate how much right wing politicians views are misaligned with yours. I would say that I've always been fairly consistently in the middle in terms of my political views, but my perception of who aligns with my views has shifted back and forth depending on my environment. Currently that environment is fairly conservative, especially compared to the progressive/leftist dominated media companies and public institutions that influence Canadian society. Although I'm aware of the shortcomings of both sides, I'd feel more comfortable voting for the right, because the left has more power to push their bad ideas through unchallenged due to dominating the media, corporate and institutional landscape. The right wing echo chambers are mostly limited to margins of the internet. The left wing echo chambers exist in academia, school boards, medical institutions, unions, government offices...

  2516. Thanks to you two for what you do! I bought the book about religion, and it's very interesting so far. I agree with large chunks of your worldview and would love to start a similar project, but tbh, in building my personal philosophical structure, I always run into trouble at the starting line - good and evil. Getting past Hume's guillotine. Finding a way to assert morality, or that anything in particular "should" or "should not" be. I suspect that I'm not the only one dealing with this kind of foundational philosophical shakiness, and that it plays a role the population decline among members of the supervirus. I want to get past this obstacle and get on your lifeboat, but I don't know how. Would love to know how you all get past this - I see hints of it in your content, and could maybe figure it out with careful study, but I thought maybe I'd just ask directly. A video on it would be amazing, but if you've already covered it, then even just a reference to where would be awesome. Thanks very much!

  2549. I am a 42M life-long member of the church coming out of pioneer stock in Utah (one of my ancestors is Charles C. Rich, an apostle under Brigham Young), and also an AI in Finance entrepreneur with three kids (hopefully will get to more -- we've been trying to apply fertility treatments for a while, and we're about to try IVF). I love the church overall, but am very concerned about the falling fertility rate in our membership and also a seeming de-emphasis on traditional family values, and increasing feminism which I don't think helps. You could call me a conservative in the faith, but I'm also mostly a non-literalist. I believe some things literally, like the nature of God, but I think most of the scriptures, including seeming historical narratives in the Bible and Book of Mormon, were largely originally intended to be symbolic, including the New Testament Gospels. How do I get more involved with index? I want to do what I can to influence the culture from the inside in ways that will help the church to recover its fertility rate, while also trying to create a subculture for my family and others in our faith that feel similarly about the importance of natalism.

  2550. Jargon in IT: I remember when I worked in IT one day the a new programmers assistant was sent to spend the day with us. I used to work in technical support on large servers. He was escorted through all the lock doors into our inner sanctum. He sat wide eyed notepad in one hand and computing dictionary in the other so he could decipher the words of we high priests of tech and learn the deep truth. We had a biggish job planned and I think he was expecting to witness a miracle. After a one half hour of us referring to kit as wotsit and thingy and doodad, shouting down the computer room to ask 'Dude are the lights fibble-bibbling yet?', 'Pass us the sonics!', 'Hammer it home....', and other not really very IT like language he put the note-pad and dictionary down to one side for the day. It seems when he got back to his new boss he made it sound like we were a combination of the crew of the Dark Star, Dumber and Dumber, and Forrest Gump without the homespun philosophy

  2556. As psychologist Lee Jussim has noted, since "progressives" dominate psychology department professors 20:1 any research which supports a position which progressives dislike e.g. stereotype accuracy, e.g. behavioural genetics, should be assumed as a prior to be more trustworthy and less suspicious than research which supports conclusions progressives like or are neutral towards (e.g. stereotype threat, unconscious bias, childhood interventions having a lasting effect on IQ , any kind of simple intervention being able to make society better) . This is exactly what we find. Behavioural genetics studies have been unscathed by the replication crisis unlike the field of social psychology with among the highest % dominance of progressives in psychology , which has been ravaged . It seems obvious that you would need balance of power between opposing faction to keep each other honest and holding each other to high self-critical standards instead of just doing confirmation bias towards their orthodoxy and shunning people who demonstrated unpopular results . I've seen several psychology researchers and communicators contribute to the ideological dominance of "progressivism" in psychology and shunning of those who contradict "progressive" orthodoxy, then when study after study in their field is found not to replicate and author after author is found to have fabricated data, they shrugs their shoulders and say "not my problem, I won't read their books in the future" .

  2562. I am very happy to have found this podcast :) Only got a little bit of criticism. It seems as if you are targeting a smarter than average audience with your ideas and worldviews. I can't pinpoint exact examples, it's just an overall theme (mostly comes down to your focus on efficiency and raw results that tend to neglect ethics and genuine kindness). Since I wouldn't consider myself as particularly smart, hearing you talk about these great ideas and visions makes me super depressed, because I know that I am not going to be part of that future. Couldn't you work on general solutions, even if it's hard? Watched ~13 episodes so far.

  2568. 2:01 ā€œThink of a name way better than abrahamism.ā€ Pan-Messianic Christianity. I think a concise way to describe Secular Calvinism and intergenerational improvement as advocated from in The Martyrdom of Man would be Pan-messianic . A religion in which everyone is a "_micro-messiah_" including its adherents. Figures of the past deliver from evils Jesus never did, for example you both wear glasses Isaac Newton can be said to be the messiah of your vision delivering you from the evil of poor vision intergeberationally through his scientific work on optics. Jesus is merely the messiah of your soul. In that sense it is the year 382 of Isaac Newton the savior of our collective vision.

  2576. I think Trump's selection of JD Vance is brilliant. While Vance has adopted some of the traditional characteristics of upper-class men in finance, I don't think he'll ever forget where he came from either. In many ways, he is the most ideal candidate for a future conservative president in the 21st century. He's strikes me as someone that is very thoughtful and pragmatic on his positions; and he also strikes me as someone that won't sell out the country for his own personal gain. He understands the vital importance of a healthy working and middle-class, and the vital importance of a highly diversified economy that includes industrial and high-tech manufacturing - even if that means corporations cannot achieve the highest possible profits. Finally, having served in the military, I think he understands the real human costs of war, but at the same time won't be afraid to use the military when it's necessary. He genuinely represents the only realistic future for the Republican party; and if Trump wins this November, Trump and Vance will reposition the GOP for the future that will bring in a lot of younger people in future elections. There is something very inspiring about JD Vance, and this is something we should all be very excited about.

  2580. This is a great topic, because it scares people.

  2581. Answers to esoteric madness here: 1. Yes it says IN, but Eden just means "pleasure" or "delight", hence in English we just say Paradise i.e Garden of Delight. 2.The Serpent is an old and universal symbol for wisdom. Yes it's not a snake, but it's a metaphor for something extremely knowledgeable and wise. I believe it's the origin of the 3rd eye trope/all seeing eye, as most reptiles in fact have a 3rd eye in the middle of their head, it's not fully developed but can see light and movement, ancient people will have noted this, and come up with the connection of wisdom and "seeing even with your eyes closed", etc. 3. Eve wasn't tricked. God lied, the Serpent told the truth, they did not die, they gained a conscience. Adam and Eve may well be further esoteric titles such as the Serpent. 4. Indeed, the Bible directly states there are other people, not mention during creation, whether they were made by the same god or not seems debatable. 5. Gulf of Persia perhaps, which would imply the Sumerian city of Ur, which makes sense as Hebrews are Babylonian. Or Western Anatolia, which implies Gobekli Tepe and whatever even older civilisations were there. 6. Civilisation likely is 100K years old, but the Bible only dates back to 4000BC, and even that is purely esoteric. 7. The Tree of Life is not in heaven, it's in Eden, the Bible explains that a powerful angel with a flaming sword is set to guard it after what happened with the Serpent and Eve. It's firmly described as being in the centre of the Garden. 8. I'd say the lesson is that both knowledge and wisdom, anything from the mind except from god is bad. If you read the Book of Enoch this is expressly explained. That ignorance is next to godliness. 9. Yes this story is almost universal, and yes the Hebrews seem to of picked it up and taken it to heart. But no they didn't do it altruistically to iron out the kinks, they just massively admired the Hellenic culture brought to them by Alexander the Great, and when Judas Maccabee came to rule a new independent Hebrew state, he structured their nation around a grand opera of a collection and retelling of widely known stories and tropes. It's effectively a state mandated official history, primarily used to give legitimacy to a new state, that wanted to be in the Hellenic world but not ruled by Greek empires. 10. It is a remix of Pandora's Box, it's the explanation of conscience and consciousness. However it's also a remix of Perseus, the Serpent is Perseus, but this time considered evil, seeing his enlightenment as an ungodly curse or burden, not a gift. 11. ? 12. I don't think Eden is some sort of Bifrost, but it's an interesting idea. 13. Matter of opinion. The Bible largely seems to say that since the Fall, life is suffering period, hence the curses god gave. 14. You should read more biology and anatomy. (you wrote 13 again) 15. Stop watching America day time TV documentaries. 16. People have imaginations, we all come up with our own ideas about stuff. That is why the Mono-myth is so intriguing. 17. I don't know if you mean 14 or 16, but don't take philosophy notes from Back to the Future.

I've only read Consider Phlebas, Player of Games, and Hydrogen Sonata, but as much as I have enjoyed the books, I struggle to see the Culture as 'good' as they seem so similar to the current mind virus (altering/breaking civilizations it doesn't like until they are more acceptable to the Culture's beliefs and on a path to be very similar to the Culture itself). Am I off base here? Seems I always finish these books disappointed in the outcome.

  2595. You're being Mormon again. šŸ˜œ We have a whole lot of additional doctrine and revelation on what is happening in this story. A couple of important notes, the garden story is intimately bound up in the temple and without correlating the two the understanding of both is incomplete. The words for work in the eden story are also specifically used to refer to service in the temple. The term helper is also the Hebrew used when referring to God's help. Like you postulated about the Life of Christ, Genesis 1-3 is a model for parts of the individual life. You will observe that small children don't have a really good understanding of the consequences of thier actions and cause and effect. Around age eight they start to manifest this understanding. This is what seperates humans from animals. We also say that without eating the tree they would not have known seed i.e. not have understood what it was to have not just kids but grandkids. We make it explicit multiplying and replenishing the earth and not eating the fruit and therefore staying in the garden were mutual exclusive commandments.

  2607. 24:17 "This is why for our culture I really want to focus on ensuring the things that are done are specifically efficacious." This is an admirable goal, many cultures (especially eastern ones) venerate hard work so much that they prioritize hard work to the detriment of actual productivity. 29:53 "They still exist when they existed within the timeline." It sounds like Malcolm subscribes to a model of reality similar to the block universe where events in time are like locations in space, and patterns or configurations of matter that decohere continue to exist somewhen else.

  2612. The last part is interesting because I have wrestled with that concept in my own faith. I believe we are built to overcome hardships, so how is the great tempter bad if it has utility in our growth. So I like the analogy of the devil is the part of parenting you don't like. We often call God the Father and in parenting the Father has to discipline and correct you. Personifying that part of Him as the serpent brings a whole new lens to the text.

  2614. Title got me...I just came across an NDE earlier which the dude pretty much said this exact thing. You two are awesome...keep it up! I don't think dying with or without a lot of people necessarily equates to a life lived well. Some life paths take people to lonely places, and that's the point of their particular life and lessons, and in that case, that person has lived their life well. Just my thoughts as this is a generalization, so I could be wrong on that level.

  2615. I used books, Internet, and what you all a "phantasy" hands on real life educational experiences, as well as classes in some subjects using more traditional classroom methods when I was homeschooling my two daughters full time. And were not wealthy, even considered below poverty level living on one income, but we had roof over our heads, we traveled, we bought our own car that we paid off and we managed to build some savings too.šŸ˜Š And I agree with you, kids need to learn to navigate the world judiciously. Being over protective is as bad as being too permissive as a parent. I remember when my 19 year old went to a party where alcohol was served and she drank some. She never saw us drinking at home because we are not into alcohol, so when she told me, she thought I would be mad. She was surprised that I wasn't. I said to her, Why would I be mad? You are an adult. You had some alcohol, but you didn't get drunk, you used it responsibly. You did well. I have no reason to be mad.šŸ™‚

  2617. I'm a member of the church, this makes sense to me. Our religion is demanding and while on the surface having many children would seem as a core tenet of it, it is more of a side effect of a push the church had in the 60s and 70s against birth control and the belief that families are important. The more recent push is the idea that you should decide as a couple and with prayer how many children you should have, which leaves more room for the person to do as they consider essentially. If you label yourself in self-report as highly religious, that means you go to the temple often, you visit the people you're assigned to and you do family history. All this takes time, lots of time. Taking care of your family wouldn't always be seen as a religious activity, and it takes time, lots of time. You have time to either have your life be the church or you have time to take care of your family. It is not surprising at all when you consider this. I plan on having more kids (I have 2 right now) and I would consider myself either in 3 or 4 as well.

  2637. This is so silly. The way the question is framed it automatically makes the woman picture not a normal man but a dangerous one. Why else would the comparison be with a bear, an objectively dangerous creature. So you guys are pretending as if you're asking women to compare the bear to a normal man. When in reality the question is asking to compare threat levels so the mind will automatically compare one dangerous creature to another dangerous creature. Thus the comparison is between a bear or a man with bad intentions. It's not an indictment of all men. Bad men are far more dangerous than bears. Geesh.

  2650. 22:00 In the twentieth century there were still opportunities for martyrdom, especially for Catholics in Latin America. Graham Greene wrote about the time of Plutarco Elias Calles in and is attempt to enforce atheism and disband the Catholic Church in Mexico. The Power and the Glory talks about that in Tabasco state, and the Cristero movement had its martyrs further north in the twenties, as sung about by Vicente Fernandez. In El Salvador in the eighties the government said "be a patriot, kill a priest" and many of martyrs in El Salvador and Guatemala were priests accused of following the ideas of the preferential option for the poor to the point when they were seen as soft on communism. On the other side of the Iron Curtain, the persecution of Catholics in Poland and other Warsaw Pact countries is part of the reaso for the elevation of John Paul II to Pope.

There are not going to be lots of humans wandering around on planets light years away wearing space suits replicating Earth's gravity etc and eating Earth derived animal and plant cells.

  2666. Political coalitions are interesting products of their times and leaderships. Obama was able to fashion and keep together a loose coalition of nerdy autistic "new" atheists, science and tech bros, Silicon Valley as well as more traditional progressive groups - women, minorities, LGBT, etc. JFK had this knack too - he could keep a broad tent - the civil rights movement, the urban machines, organized labor and the radical left together. Their successors couldn't replicate these successes. The Obama coalition was a counter reaction to the George W. Bush presidency, at which conservative Christianity was central. This was just a weaker bloc by the end of the Obama era. Thus the fissures in his coalition became more pressing. Three other politicians would end up fighting over the left overs: Bernie (fiscal progressives), Hillary (social progressives) and Trump (largely white male, flyover country, left behind by globalization). The weakening of the Reagan Coalition meant that the rationalistic tech bros began to see the feminists and social justice warriors as more of a threat because with the weakening of the religious right, the SJWs became the most dogmatic and irrational faction in politics. As such, they then shed the feminists who had been their allies against Bush, and would therefore pick up men's rights and red pill guys. This transitional coalition was briefly divided between its Bernie Brocialist faction and the libertarian and old right types. This division did not last long. Most of the Bernie Bros followed their guy into the democratic coalition and sorta kinda made peace with the feminists. Meanwhile, guys like Jordan Peterson injected conservative individualism into the "red pill coalition" and they coalesced around Trump against Hillary and now Biden. Finally the last step is reconciliation with the religious right. There are quite a few reasons for this, despite the irony inherent to it. One is simple politics. Trump courted the religious right as a traditional base of the GOP. And it paid off. Trump got the votes, the religious right got the supreme court appointees, Roe v Wade got overturned, and the red pill coalition more or less made peace with it because it was another win for their guy. But part of this reconciliation went deeper. The red-pill coalition faced a kind of collective existential crisis after ditching religion back in the early 2000s and then facing a cooling of relations with women in tandum with the already isolating effects of the proliferation of social media. Thus came the male loneliness epidemic, the rise of unattached men, falling rates of romantic and sexual involvement, etc. Women were less effected by this due to their ideological beliefs and tribal loyalties filling in the "meaning and purpose" gap. In hindsight, the turning to religion of such men will seem like an obvious reinvention of the wheel - the monastic traditions with their vows of celibacy and chastity are such an obvious hand-in-glove fit for precisely this kind of scenario and have been for millennia. While most men won't go that far, religion providing an answer for men cut adrift by social disfunction and widespread nihilism and cynicism is just what religion has always done. For good or ill, expect more male devotion to the Abrahamic traditions going forward. Finally, the self-improvement ethos prevalent in the red pill coalition made reconciliation with Christianity all the easier, given the latter's emphasis on self reflection, personal growth and repentance when warranted. It will be interesting to see where this ends up in the future. I think the red pill coalition's next big thing might be to court not just the white male working class, but actual organized labor. That will be a tall order as the GOP and the unions have been enemies for time out of hand. But Trump's nomination of J.D Vance as his running mate seems like a nod in this direction.

  2667. So it seems like Greenberg is still working within the paradigm of the peer reviewed scientific process (although attempting to improve it). Could it not also be the case that this method of inquiry is just badly suited to actually generating very new scientific discoveries and knowledge?

You should not advocate to remove something that you don't like, you should just enjoy the things that you do enjoy and stop trying to homogenize entertainment, in that sense you are no different from the left (woke). It is the left not the right that is very anti My Hero Academia specifically against Momo Yaoyarozu for showing to much skin despite her powers being the reason and Manami Aiba for having small proportions despite being an adult. They also believe and criticize it to be pro capitalist despite it taking place in a socialist society. They like Himiko Toga though because they identify her as gay coded despite also showing skin. I thought the Frieren controversy was funny because everyone got it wrong. The left thought it was racist for demonizing demons and the right was defending the show for antagonizing the demons. Though I believe the intended message was that the demons are an allegory for far right politics similar to punch a nazi. So it was funny to see the right defending punch a nazi and the left being against punch a nazi.

  2689. Yes having narcissitic parents that resent you for being born and for you ruining their life by just existing will do that to you. They probably made her life living hell with neglect, verbal abuse and extreme controlling behavior. A dysthymia/"the dominant other" sort of situation.

  2692. For anyone whoā€™s new here, Malcolm has said in the past that he has some schizoid personality traits. Now, Iā€™m not necessarily saying that those sketchy reporters werenā€™t spies. Iā€™m just saying that one manifestation of schizoid personality traits might be to assume that a given sketchy reporter is a spy when theyā€™re not.

  2698. Peak thumbnail. You're already great, but you go beyond measure when you dare to really "go there". Have you ever considered an episode where you lay out your religious beliefs and explain your faith alongside its historic origins? I feel we've gotten a lot of that piecemeal (especially of late), but it'd be amazing to see it explored as a focused presentation. It might even help people who are looking for direction.

  2708. I take exception to one thing you stated. I am "the kind of person who would get a PhD", in a different time but I only have an associate's degree. I am a self-taught SQL coder. You would have to investigate if the colleges at the time were corrupted, similar to our current system of higher education. I know your channel will grow. I can't believe you have under 20K subs.

  2726. Where is the quote at min 13:37 taken from?
    2
  2727. Teach your kids that they can aspire to be anything that their heart truly desires if they are smart about it. You also teach them that they must work hard and that it wonā€™t be simple ever. Hard work and serving others is how you maximize your potential. You look for the silver lining in whatever situation and social level you are at. If you are working at a call center making $15 an hour, you are garnering experience. You are networking. You grow your confidence etc.

  2732. 29:40 the child birth and the "desire will be for your husband" parts of the curse on Eve are not quite ehat youre getting at here. The word for "anguish" used here about childbirth is one more frequently related to emotional pain than physical (much more to be said on that). The "desire for" is a complicated phrase to make sense of, but it very interestingly (and clearly deliberately) is used only a few pages later in an animalistic metaphor for Cain's relationship to sin saying that "sin crouches at your door and its 'desire is for you'". It definitely doesn't just mean "being attracted to" there's something more sinister to it.
    2
  2733. Ā @mlts9984Ā  similar to me as well, but they seem to have a specific agenda while reading. Not that I had zero agenda myself, but we'll see.

  2735. Loving the podcast. Just a suggestion maybe some episodes should feature just one of you. I also really love your guest episodes

  2738. "Tesseractivisim" as a name. Just a thought.

  2739. Pawns do grow enamored of each other and get married, but this is far more frequently due to conversations about shelves and small fish than due to poetic discussions about physical beauty.

  2744. 46:00 Euro/Japanese/Korea courts feel like politeness over malice. Like there is always a threat behind every word or action. Swirling politics and shifting alliances. Chinese courts feel like sycophantic emperor worship. Like an impervious stone set to last millenia with no change. It's not historically accurate, and is heavily influenced by communist party propaganda that wants to present an unbroken "Chinese" lineage, but it is effective story telling.

  2747. I have always adored the Addams Family, and for me it was always that they stuck together as a family and didn't give one whiff about what the rest of society thinks. They were not only happy as a family, they were a tight-knit EXTENDED family and genuinely celebrated each other's uniqueness. LOVE IT! It's also funny that you give the example of enjoying roses; I have never understood why presenting someone with dead plants represents love. I find it completely bonkers that the social pressure on someone to accept and deal with decapitated foliage makes people have to behave like that's a thoughtful gesture. šŸ˜‚

  2748. It is the nihilist ex-mormons destroying the happy Mormons.

  2749. The proposed solution is genious. It also has the added effect of maybe undoing a bit of the extreme rigidity that Korean society has with regards to these matters, as it would muddle their metric and thus invite people to reconsider whether to use only that one metric, which makes it a double win.

  2751. Hey man, i'm going to apologize for my incoming backhanded compliment, despite me intending it to be a genuine compliment. I don't really like your guys' aesthetic, and how you guys talk, however, i do appreciate your guys' perspective and i appreciate it enough to subscribe. I hope your guys' aesthetic grows on me like a cancer, haha. Again, i apologize for the backhandedness, and i am ready to receice hate for it.

  2752. Your discussions sound like science fiction to me. What a wonderfully strange time to live.

  2753. This really does explain a lot. Malcolm , you are a first rate researcher. Simone, are you actually human or are you .. a Muse? Beginning to wonder. Love to You.

  2754. You should interview Nicole Prause and/or David Ley.

  2756. If you have never read chinese web novels, and want to read one of the most subversive and controversial takes on villain-as-protagonist and Chinese Court overturned fantasies, you would both be very stimulated by Gu Zhen Ren's Reverend Insanity. What it lacks in repetitiveness and lack of literary refinement it makes up for with creative plot and depth of character philosophy (in a Chinese anti-confucian/daoist way). You will hate the character for his desire for immortality above all else but in a fantasy world where there exists the potential for power scale cultivation to god like levels of existence it sidesteps some of your concerns with immortal entities
    2
  2757. 3:35 I never thought of the roundhead angle, but it makes sense. Puritan opposition to the "papist" elements retained by the church of England, and then actual papists from Austria, Italy, Poland and MĆ©xico makes a lot of sense. And then Cromwell, Milton, etc. provide actual scripts for self-styled "pagan revivalists" LARPing. I did not know about the Dutch connection to Santa Claus, nor enough about the difference between Dutch Protestants and Roundheads to comment, but learning that is why I watch you. Interestingly in Guatemala I watch facebook videos of people carrying a large trunk of a tree taller than the parish church, which men in masks do a jump off of in a ceremony called palo volador. They do it in Mexico too, but they traded the traditional tree trunk for a dedicated steel pole a few decades back. Catholic syncretism is a real thing, and they do all kinds of things like calling priests "father" and bowing down before graven images which Protestants have been pointing and sputtering about ever since Luther nailed his theses to the door. Ā”Viva Cristo Rey! Tomorrow is the day of Nuestra SeƱora de Guadalupe, Empress of the Americas.

  2769. I know that Epictetus wouldn't approve of the way I can talk endlessly about stoicism with anyone who will listen but I justify it as a form of giving myself a reminder of the principles with someone else present while thinking out loud. I know first hand about how lacking in virtue I actually am. A sinner lecturing on saintliness is still reminded of what he should be.

  2774. Cool song. I like the ultranationalist anime waifu of excellent stock, and the EctoLife (TM) product placement at 2:15. If you want more complex music for cheaper, you can try Sunno. Unfortunately, it doesn't actually require as much musicianship as you sounded like you thought AI does, even like only 1 or 2 years since ChatGPT was released. I am actually a musician who writes really complex intricate stuff, and if Sunno gave me way more control over what the output is aside from just vague textual genre descriptions and the output was half as good as the actual super-automated output, it would be 10x as satisfying and I would use it way more often. But unfortunately, the AI is like one of those super controlling moms that wants to do 100% of everything for their kids with no input from them instead of letting them do anything for themselves or decide anything ever, and actually deeply enjoys the learned helplessness and reproductive nonviability of their children as adult losers because they think it will make them dependent for longer (no idea what that's like), which is why we'll all be living in some kind of weird Matrix vs. Planet of the Axxx vs. Idxxcracy hybrid dystopia world, and of course we all know the etymology of the word Matrix and why it was chosen for the concept.
    2
  2775. Nice job! This "after video segment" may be the most important you've yet offered. I hope you can speak further to the married couple dynamic and its importance in society. Starting my day with you has become my happy habit and I always look forward to more. More power to ya! šŸ˜‰

  2787. One of my viewers referred me to you guys after I did a South Africa POV of this subject. Glad I found you :)
    2
  2788. You guys should read this book called ā€œwhy the Germans, why the Jewsā€ one of the things it talks about is how long before the 1930s when teachers were teaching mixed classes they noticed that their Jewish students were doing better than their non Jewish students. They hired 40% of the tutors even though they were a tiny fraction of the population.
    2
  2789. Simone, you have a strong sense of the political pulse. I hope you're wrong about how voting will go in your race, though.

  2790. Was simone wearing contacts while cleaning? Also her facial features really pop without the glasses on. I'm jealous!
    2
  2791. It's incredible to me how much some of these conservative commentators don't understand that people around my age and younger crave authenticity. It seems like they're all geared towards some boomer audience (or maybe the conservative elite as you put it). You can literally see this in the types of sponsors they have (gold investing, insurance, etc). Makes sense from a money/voter block perspective, but not at all if the goal is to influence the broader culture (which the Daily Wire explicitly claims that it wants to do).
    2
  2792. You could also have hyper capitalists kleptocracies were you have pirates and gangs straight up just steal property from others to resell. These would probably exist mainly in urban ghettos or on islands. I wonder if these thieves would be viewed as lazy though. Also I wouldn't be surprised if you got socialist armies just going around raiding places also, or maybe I'm just story building have a nice day.

  2793. Donā€™t you know this is horrible! Imagine all the funding Planned Parenthood loses due to lack of demand!

  2794. Breeding dog for an increase in general intelligence seems to be the most logical path forward some dogs are incredibly intelligent already yet that intelligence puts them on par with a 5 to 6 year old human. Another thing would be breeding for longevity alongside the intelligence. We have the ability to clone dogs we can find dogs with 20 year live spans clone them introduce them into the breeding population to try and ensure dogs reach at least the average human life span in about 100 years of selective breeding.

  2796. You pay people for getting an education instead of charging them. People have to actually do something they would not want to otherwise do in order to get paid generally speaking. Obviously some people get paid to do what they love but you got to produce something and if that is educating yourself and that is the first start.
    2
  2797. Simone said all facts.
    2
  2798. I find myself resonating with you two as hosts more than any other podcast Iā€™ve seen! While not exactly fitting the ā€œcorporate familyā€ mold, my wife is a physiology professor teaching online classes and I work closely with my family at the family business. Makes it easy to have a robust professional life while having time for the kids.

  2810. Just so you know I am 1st generation African American. You guys are so based. You get it. Now I'd say I agree with 80% of your content. I am amazed that there are people that actually see things light-years ahead as I do. Obviously, our cultural elements are different but it is interesting to see a mild doppelganger in thinking. šŸ˜‚
    2
  2811. You mentioned a lot of human biology research at the Collin's institute. Does any of that have to do with extending fertility windows?

  2812. What are the coolest things in this video was halfway through when Simone convinced Malcolm that AI hasn't really been invented it is only been discovered. I'm still digesting that epiphany

  2815. How in the world could kids be better off than Malcolm at the point he got accepted to Stanford? No shot

  2816. I genuinely believe bigoted women didn't go away, they just became Feminists. Think about it... Treating blue collar workers as lesser (whose demographics are more diverse). And of course Abortion. Even the POC feminists choose to exclusively date white men.

  2817. The gingerbread, containing nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves, also would have been a luxury for most classes of people.

  2818. My Utopia right now is a worthy challenge and the time and space for breaks. I can self-impose my Utopia except for the breaks, and others can help me with the breaks but not the personal challenges. Learning and technological advancement are both sigmoid curves though, so the challenges will eventually dry up. I wonder what I'll do then.
    2
  2819. I've been shilling the shit out of you guys for those interested in the variances in opinion on the dissident right as a primary example of how conservatism preserves diversity culturally and a great example of how not all dissident conservatism leads to weird race politics and homogenized culture. I find your perspectives novel and interesting. I wondered how you felt about the homogenizing effect of technology itself as an agent for removing pain? I am a technophilic post libertarian type, and I've read a diverse view of opinions on it, but I always thought the real pragmatic virtues of technological development are worth keeping over the coat of not having them. Is it that you can't see Pandora's box being closed or do you see affirmative positivist virtue in tech? I think we currently have cultural homogenization based on the ease with which you can just have fun forever, endlessly from tech, but I also see improvements in general human rights being permitted by the advancement of that technology. How do you balance the two peraonally?
    2
  2820. You can say it. It's been a long time since Imus. No on will remember. Trust me.

  2821. Hating everything that is not woke is not the same as loving woke. I don't think there is the sort of attraction would cause the woke to buy media. I have long thought that woke media is at its best when the focus on how good the leftist hero is, instead of how evil the villains are. But they often struggle to imagine a woke hero, I suspect. I believe it could be done though. Concord tried to construct a pile of leftist heroes all at once. I heard that the characters mostly did not appeal to anyone.

  2822. So "being happy" is now a right wing dog whistle? šŸ˜‚

  2825. Some people lift truly for health purposes ( you need to work out only 3 hours per week to build muscle in natural way), but there are many of those among men who lift for status or sexual signaling and they do take steroids.BTW superman in human world looks like Malcolm. It's a great blessing in having no anxiety around gender presentation. Simone, I am starting a new trend of looking online like I look in person by simply not faking it, not using filters and wearing my wrinkles proudly. It's great to have no anxiety around aging.Makes life so much easier šŸ˜…

  2826. Excited for a new video! I saw that oculus rift guy episode on Shawn Ryan this weekend, and it made me miss your guys's podcast for some reason.., I don't know if it was like the same energy or something? Still wanting to find out Simone's lipstick shade..such a nice color, trying to find a color that looks similar with my undertone. But this is a topic I've been thinking about recently so this would be a good one..

  2829. 11:34 Also love that point. Progressives and Atheists are soooo friggin religious. You have to be so religious to try and prove god doesn't exist haha and refuse to eat meat and be terrified of the end of the world. Only a religious fanatic would expect everyone to drive an electric car and stop smoking. Haha

  2830. I donā€™t blame you
    2
  2831. I have similar views about realty. I think that math is the language of reality, so if math works for any theory, eventually it will be proven to be real. I also believe that our reality is nested within larger reality that is outside of our space time, where God eternally exists, or what you are calling here self sustaining simulation of which He is an author of. Someday we will find that out for sure.

  2833. For years, I have said that people referencing two spirits and similar cultural practises was not the evidence they were looking for. It was only something present in societies with a strict distinction between genders. Effeminate man? Absolutely unacceptable, we must demote him and have him labelled as something else. Non Binary reinforces the idea that being male or female dictates your interests with no exceptions. Tomboy? No, you're not a girl, you're outside the category of girl. You're unique.

  2834. This is looking fantastic!

  2839. 13:00 "The Coloniser triangle", that's how you can call it. I also noticed that in rural villages you're way more likely to see Gay Pride flags, while in major urban areas you're more likely to find "Progress" Pride Flags.

  2844. Malcom. Iā€™m not leaving till you spill every tract and then cry in later episodes while people criticize them. We will use the tears to feed AI and develop even stronger Calvinist Futurism. That said, leverage is important. Iā€™ll follow you guys whatever you do. Left you a sick review on Apple Podcasts.

  2845. I canā€™t believe the $62000 daycare bill. Wow!!

  2846. BALLERINA FARMS! That is what Simone is referencing at the end. You guys need to post Malcolm in the KrakĆ³wā€™s outfit.

  2847. I want to thank you both for introducing me to the concept of the Corporate Family. It's something I inadvertedly created in my own life, and now that I have a name to attach it to I intend to spread the idea everywhere, it's completely in line with my ideas of freedom and autonomy of the individual, and the strength of community. I finally found the nerds I identify with.

  2860. There are smart people and there are stupid people who know a lot of words. I'm in the latter category. I can tell because occasionally I catch myself using the term "autodidactic" which just means self-taught, except with more syllables. It's more syllables for a word fewer people will understand, which means that it's strictly worse for communicating with people, though it may confuse some people into mistaking me for a smart person. If the latter is the goal then sure it might be pro-adaptive for that circumstance. A tell for your anti-genius category might be someone who uses obscure words when more common ones are strictly better for the purpose at hand - and communicating to you effectively should be a goal for the kind of person you want to have, say, managing your policy.
    2
  2861. Thanks for all your work.

  2862. This was a highly fascinating conversation! Thank you Simone and Malcolm!

  2865. I am with you Malcolm. It is Hamas and their murderous ideology that is driving this conflict causing deaths of children on both sides. I can't believe that our politicians and Universities not only do not condemn, but support this.

  2867. A buddy of mine suggested your channel, very insightful discussion. Youā€™ve got 1 more sub towards your 30k EOY goal

  2868. I think what theyā€™re referring to is the coups that have happened in the past 2-3 years, namely those of Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, and Gabon. Those were western backed governments that were acting (largely) for the material interests of their small governing class and their western patrons. Not so sure they were also allowing western ā€œwokeā€ NGOs to come in and spread the virus, however in many other examples given more time the West eventually does that (Middle East has some great examples). In addition, I would be curious to see what Malcolm and Simon think about the African Unions structure and rhetoric, as it echoes the western universalist ā€œwokeā€ influence that the EU and many western intergovernmental institutions have.

  2869. I would buy the Tibetan Sky Burial shirt and wear it to the gym Heck maybe Iā€™ll make it and give you guys a commission for the concept šŸ˜‚

  2870. 12:30 they don't think. It is. Part of every society is the threat of violance. A child who never feels the embrace of the village will burn it down to feel its warmth
    2
  2871. Very insightful. It made sense that the woman tend to be more conservative in the professional aspect, also being very structural for the family unit for the men to then be able, nourished and comfortable to make riskier moves. I myself operate in that frame without ever thinking much about it besides the fact that men are inclined to riskier enterprises that have higher reward potential as well. I just don't know if I agree with the "shielding" wording for a woman because in the literal sense I think is the man job to protect the family, but that's just semantics.
    2
  2872. I think if Biden stays in the race we could see an election like Reagan where Trump wins 49 of the 50 states. If Biden drops out, I still think Trump wins due to the Democrats losing so much marketing time for whomever they put up. Plus the Republicans could run attack adds saying the Democrats are trying to put up a dictator since they cancelled their primaries.
    2
  2873. Tradcons are particularly dangerous because they wrap blue pill ideology in red pill rhetoric and cause a ton of confusion and damage
    2
  2874. People don't seem to understand how the H1B works. All H1B applicants need to be paid the prevailing wage as set by the Department of Labor. That means you cannot pay someone lower than the prevailing wage to shortchange locals. There should be a country cap to the number of H1Bs issued per country so that the H1B system is not over catering to India over other countries' applicants.
    2
  2875. My (very Christian) family would usually have a Christmas eve party and invite all sorts of friends to it. We would usually not have non-family members at our Christmas dinner the next day, but we would if they were traveling. We often (maybe even usually) invited someone to Thanksgiving. One difference is that they were missionaries in Africa for several terms, and while we were there, all the missionaries would get together for pretty much every holiday. It was sort of an extended family, so we got used to just inviting people. My wife doesn't do that as much; she usually depends on me doing the inviting even though she is really more gregarious than I am. I never thought about the cultural norms before. Thanks for this episode! It will make me work even harder at inviting people. I can see that it is my role, not hers, because I don't have the same cultural background.
    2
  2876. Nice! Good dynamic.

  2877. Malcolm and Simone your welcome to come to a good rave with me. I bet you will totally love it!

  2878. I haven't seen AIPAC supporting anti-palestinian protesters. Have you seen anything by AIPAC supporting protesters on the level of what has happened on campuses? If so you should call it out.

  2880. A good tour of the groups in colonial America via a work of fiction is King Noanett - a story of old Virginia and the Massachusetts Bay (1901) - Stimson, Frederic Jesup The story is of the son of a poor farmer in England who is convicted and sent to the New World in the wake of the English Civil War. Sold as a slave in Virginia then he and another travel north live with Puritans for.a while before moving up the Charles to set up a homestead in the wilds. With a short stop at this new school, Harvard. But many Scots-Irish came to the colonies as indentured servants. See Eleanor "Irish Nell" Butler in Maryland. The well documented case of her marrying an African slave, enslaving herself and her children. Her descendants did get emancipated in the 1790s in a narrowly decided case involving when the marriage occurred and when such marriages were outlawed in the 1680s.

  2881. Actually Ferengi was a word from the Mogul Empire in India, used to refer to European traders.

  2882. With my oldest child, one of the things I made sure she understood prior to the start of puberty and have continued to reenforce is 3 facts about puberty. Puberty is normal. Your body is doing what it is supposed to do, puberty is a sign of a healthy body. Puberty is common. Every healthy person experiences puberty eventually, sooner or later. Puberty is temporary. At times it may feel scary or unpleasant but it will not last forever.

  2894. Yeah, I also understood it very early, that I need to look the strategy a person followed, and the results that got them.

  2899. Lol Simone be like - for God's sake don't stop talking Malcom your voice is beautiful when you're doing history - when he asked if she was doing OK Simone your adoration is a wonderful thing. I love that you two have found and purposefully sought to cultivate a relationship with such a good partner

  2900. Giving my theory before hearing Malcom's take: I think it's a movement towards coherent unifying systems. If you explain the world as essentially the outcome of the social and psychological outcome of a society of millions of entities, you haven't explained anything: people only barely understand their own psychology. People's understanding of their family's psychology is essentially a vibe. A world of greater coherence is a world of a smaller number of explanatory factors, where all things operate according to the same coherent laws. When Jesus says, "on earth as it is in heaven," this is predictive of Newton saying the same thing, where the stars in heaven operate according to the same physical laws of gravitation as humans and birds on earth do.

  2904. This is an exceedingly timely video for me. My thesis supervisor basically dumped me, I'm going to Berlin in August for 6 months, and I'm gonna be starting new PhD somewhere else (still need to plan and apply). Plus I work in AI where things are constantly shifting. It's time to buckle up, be intentional and craft that persona.

  2905. three minutes in and I fully agree with malcolm on this point

  2914. Anorexia can mean either: A. LACK OF CONSCIOUS HUNGER SIGNAL related to alexithymia B. A psychological phenomenon involving dysphoric self-image distortion and strong desire to limit nutrition to an unhealthy degree. Much like there is a difference between wetting the bed while sleeping vs wetting the bed while standing up. Also, gender is perhaps then a social construct that autobots do not use or need or perceive, like tact, like indirect communication generally. Why autistic people are generally gender non-conforming except through tweaking behavior based on vicarious social feedback, like avoiding contempt of queerness or encouraging positivity of successful superficial conformity.

  2920. Seriously anyone throwing hate at this couple are like humans whom hate dogs, this couple gives me hope, where my brain screams were at the end of days FYI the Japanese artificial wombs aprox 9 years ago passed animal testing on bovine. They then returned it into R&D to develop fertilisation till end gestation for humans .. 95% they will have functional artificial wombs within 3-7 years .. the technology exists, the uk and the Chinese were competing for second place in artificial womb tech

  2925. It will be interesting to see if the Dual Sympathetic Reset treatment can totally wipe away the emotive experience of trauma. That would... radically reshape the human experience, and potentially wipe out childhood attachment imprints as well. If validated, the Stellate Ganglion Block/ DSR strikes me as a fundamental medical breakthrough on the order of the bacterial ulcers hypothesis - i.e. the fundamental assumptions of a condition - experienced trauma - are just WRONG, and easily intervened with. This intervention would also potentially undermine the victimization dynamic, which looks to be closely linked to Mouse Utopia outcomes that characterize late stage societal collapses. Enduring trauma just wouldn't be "a thing" anymore - so no Beautiful Ones.

  2926. Simone...I'm taking that subreddit advice. Never thought to do that šŸ¤”

  2928. Normally I'm annoyed by how many words Malcolm can't pronounce, but today Simone kept distracting me from the conversation by not being able to say vehement... Put the accent on the first syllable please!

  2934. Love your channel. Deeply upset by this episode. As a centrist global warming absolutely should be non-partisan and the number one issue for anyone who cares about the overall future of humanity. The reason that we care about global warming in an accelerated rate is 1) due to the fact that the extreme weather conditions will predominantly affect humans in vulnerable areas like Pacific Islands, but obviously humans in economically more productive countries as well. 2) global warming creates increased zoonotic infections, asthma, medication storage issues etc for humans everywhere eg covid. 3) although we can be upset that people who work for the sake of these issues are not effective (agree) and that individual level changes donā€™t help much (unless they can affect votes to enact systemic change), this is often due to lack of money or lack of appropriate managers heading the fight, or that itā€™s overly bureaucratic. The CIA has had representation on this issue for literally decades, and people who worked with it BEMOAN the fact that it was completely destroyed by bureaucrats, politicians and yellow tape. The solution is that big business owners need to make this a priority, governments need to give serious tax incentives for people who are willing to put effort into creating long-term solutions for this, we need smarter brighter people attached to it regarding renewable energy and sequestrationā€¦ not just people who have more altruistic world views. Itā€™s definitely not just the flowers. And almost all the educated elite concerned about this know that itā€™s not alterable at an individual level that is quite frankly the government as backed by current big business gaslighting individuals into thinking itā€™s their fault, and truly the best way to ensure the next generation produces at a greater scale in economically productive countries is addressing this issue as the number one. Affordable childcare or better parental leave options and tax breaks for children would be solution number 2. I work with gen z on rotating basis, by the hundreds - they are terrified of bringing kids into the world where they feel perceived natural instability, and where government is letting them down to spearhead a change.

  2935. Don't have a lot to say on this video specifically but did just want to say I recently discovered your channel and have been enjoying it a lot. Good luck with everything!
    2
  2936. I was spanked very few times, but emotionally punished. But, I always wished I was just beaten with love instead. I swear my dad got some perverse pleasure out of my emotional pain. Hed yell for me like I was angry and laugh when he saw my scared face popping out. Hed curse at me and say that I was the reason no kids wanted to play with me. He told me that there was no need to punish me, I would punish myself. And it was true. I was terrified of him. I would apologise for dropping forks on accident while he glared at me for disturbing his peace. Lowkey disturbed for life. I just dont think this is better than being spanked at all. At least if done out of love. But I guess no punishment is that bad if you genuinley love the kid.

  2942. I am quite disagreeable and passionate about having discussions on polarising topics, so I have encountered guys who will not ever take charge (in a friendship setting). I can not tell whether they are agreeing to appease me, or because they genuinely do not have a preference for food or film. I want someone who can stand up for themselves, not out of a spiteful stubbornness, obviously. If someone was less disagreeable than me, then it would just be me dominating all decisions. I want someone who has the backbone to tell me I am wrong because I am not shy about telling those closest to me when they are wrong. Jordan Peterson said that ideally, you want 7/10 interactions to be positive, and 3 negative. It makes so much sense, no disgareements would be so boring. Disagreements are not bad. It is how you handle disagreements. I wouldn't indulge in screaming matches or passive-aggressive silence. Andrew Tate clips are funny if I interpret them as satire. Horrifying if I interpret it in earnest.

  2944. The Salem witch trials are usually so misrepresented. A new pastor came into an established community, people didn't like him. His slave and daughter's started accusing people, some people accused his faction in turn. Some extra, vulnerable, women got thrown in. It was nothing to do with girlish hysterics.

  2948. That butterfly/spider example is basically the trolley problem. You can't save both by nature of the problem, you have to choose one... but you can also choose to walk away form the problem and let it play out. The difference is, in the trolley problem if you choose to walk away you can't maintain your self-aggrandizing moral high-ground the same way that the "there's always a way" stance allows.
    2
  2949. As a side note the Anthony Burch song appears to be riffing on a Melbourne Metro safety campaign from a couple years before "dumb ways to die" which seems entirely appropriate. https://youtu.be/IJNR2EpS0jw?si=iOANuHkNs823fQBv

  2950. 2:50 This storm segment is my favourite piece, the boys playing out in the rain especially is fantastic to see. They're clearly having a fantastic time! I can't remember seeing kids so excited and screaming in clear fun.

  2951. If you think about it, the world has been changed and challenged morally with increased information, access to diversity of thought, more time, smaller families, larger but less close community and connections. Itā€™s just been fast unrelenting changes and not a lot of time to reflect, engage or figure out an identity. Who knows who or what they are anymore.

  2955. Wow! Malcolm unleashed! Love it. I continue watching because you both are undoubtedly more intelligent than I am and you introduce me to so many intriguing ideas I inevitably want to investigate further. I'd love to hear more of your thoughts on theoretical energy sources as relates to AI and especially time bubbles. Thanks for your honest emotions and regularly blowing my mind with your ideas.

  2956. 29:07 "Do you think that people with some **** feature are attractive?" I've always thought Saiyans from Dragon Ball Z had cool tails. 31:32 "Dog ears, not cat ears, and squirrel tails, not rat tails, or monkey tails." Simone you can't seriously be telling us that you think that Saiyans from Dragon Ball Z are unattractive because of their tails?

  2957. TERFs are radical feminists. In the past, they weren't conservatives. It's actually written into the term (RF = Radical Feminist). They are very anti-male social constructivists. And JK Rowling is NOT a TERF. Political lesbian TERFs had their heyday in the 70s, and they are coming back. This perspective, by Simone & Malcolm, is refreshing.

  2965. I disagree that no one is talking about this. A huge part of the reaction to the failure of IPs like Dustborn, Concord and the Acolyte is the fact that the "modern" audience never put their money where their mouth is.

  2971. 25:15 people forget that it was a conservative libertarian economist that presented a plan for UBI and restructuring of the welfare system to the clintons who laughed at its ridiculousness when Bill was in office. The two-party system doesn't work for the masses. The extremist views we see today is a result of the two party system and restructuring class warfare to culture warfare.

  2984. I live in Montreal, Quebec. We have subsidized daycare here which is 8$ a day. I pay max 400$ a month (CAD) for 2 kids in daycare. My older 3 kids are all teens now so no childcare needed and they help with babysitting when needed. The care is good, both my young kids are diagnosed with autism and daycare overall has been good for them to socialize and learn skills that they have a harder time picking up. We also do aba therapy a few times a week with therapists at home. Of the many complaints I have with where I live, the subsidized daycare is one thing Iā€™m happy with. If we use a private daycare the subsidy still applies retroactively, so Iā€™m not restricted to facilities. It would be harder to have a large family if this wasnā€™t available, but I donā€™t think it would change how many kids we have.

  2985. I went to a Jesuit high school and say what you will about the Jesuits they are very good academics. For my second quarter sophomore theology term paper I wrote on the historical roots of the Christmas holiday both from a theological and cultural perspective. The Puritans hated the Church so much they sought to rid as many elements of Catholic doctrine and traditions from their faith. Christmas just happened to be casualty of that and modern secularists and neo-pagan larpers have latched onto it.

  2995. Well shit. I was a hard lefty atheist now Iā€™m a Trad Cat pro natalist. My journey began when I went to an elite University to study Philosophy but am poor and wanted free rent. I became a Don and MAN was it ever radical. I had to teach incoming students all the gender crazy trans stuff and wasnā€™t allowed to question anything and constantly called a ā€œbroā€ for being jacked etc. I played it cool for the room, food, authority and massive amounts of progressive tail. But it radicalized me in the opposite direction.

  2999. So you're saying . . . as the production of something becomes 'optimised' the possibilities for variation from the optimum plummet. ie Optimising cars for minimal wind resistance comes to mind. Another analogy I recall is Brachiopod fossils. There was a tendency for a persistent (10M's to 100M years) (root) species occupying a given ocean niche to spin off short lived species with wildly different shell ornamentation that evolve to occupy nearby niches (say muddier or stonier). Ultimately, though, the root species didn't have the genetic potential (constrained by path dependence) for a new species derived from it to optimally exploit such niches and eventually a different animal family (Gastropoda bivalvia) has taken over. So, if you want to gather social influence, there is maybe 2 paths: 1) become an excellent Youtube (or Tiktok) influencer, who accidentally optimises for the selection algorthim (say "Primitive Technology") or who deliberately optimises for the selection algorthim (say "Mr Beast") 2) think differently about social influence (ie how do bivalves differ from brachiopods? Physiologically, life strategy, ?) My thought for you (@SimoneandMalcolm), in looking at current North American society post covid is to focus towards both the current pre-K and homeschooling (pro-family/anti-orthodoxy) move and towards the emergence of AI ie build a trial AI tutor. I expect lots of other people are thinking this, so maybe seek them out. An AI is the way to get away from the Baumol effect of needing human teachers (ie to industrial scale personalised teaching). While an LLM based AI hallucinating is much like an adult spinning a just so story for kids, its real world consequences are much less than in the adult professions of say Engineering, Law, etc All the best

  3010. I'm so glad you mentioned that Hamas has broad support. When asked if they support Hamas the polling has the numbers at about 37% which is disturbing. When asked who they would Vote for if elections were held today, 64% would vote for Hamas. It is a culture riddled with young men that are bred and trained to be antisemetic Martyrs. This is the most radical and disgusting offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, turned into a country. This is not the case for palastinians who grow up in other countries, this is unique to palastine itself, which is why everywhere that accepts them as immigrants, has had assassination and coup attempts. They view a new state as a resource with which they can kill more jews. It is their singular focus.

  3020. To be honest I actually think mormonisum in 100 years will diverugue completely from christianity. I think what it is this: Oh, we are Christian nonsense the the LDS movement does at the moment in like everything will pass. Been raised in the LDS Movement. I think the church hierarchy will not go woke. They see what that did to the RLDS. Really I have just gone dricetly in the esoteric ideas and the kabbalistic origins, and realy, the early statements make way more sense.

IMO what we really need in the culture war, is ā€œnormalā€ people, doing ā€œnormalā€ things, being outspoken about being conservative. Lean into the tabletop game thing while not shying away from your political views. Sheā€™d attract a much bigger audience. I think the reason I personally like her, is because I also happen to be religious and a mom of young kids. So I relate to her on multiple levels. But sheā€™s missing out on a huge portion of the audience she could be reaching.

  3035. Simone is correct. TPTB knew that Biden was not competent to run. They deliberately waited until the last minute and put him up in front of the American public which gave mainstream media the permission that they now seem to need instead of doing journalism that this is OK to talk about now. They waited until there was no chance of an authentic primary because they are going to decide, the Democratic national committee is going to decide who is going to be our Democratic candidate. I think Malcolm is a little too naĆÆve here and Simone has the correct take. I wonder what wouldā€™ve happened if they would have let RFK Junior stand as a democratic candidate in the primary. No one seems to be talking about RFK at all. Would be interesting to know your thoughtson him as a candidate and his chances or lack thereof. The most salient thing that Simone realizes is that the Democratic Party does not give a shit about its base. Probably the Republicans donā€™t either, but at least the Democrats used to give a shit. Itā€™s all corporate capture now. I donā€™t believe there are many if any true statesman anywhere in our government. that said, I wouldnā€™t want to be the next president in any event, given the financial collapse that is soon coming our way.

  3036. I frankly find it cool that malcom invited us to take a look at his theological framework, watching the Videos about it was very inspiriering to me and I learned alot juxtaposing it with my understanding.

Honestly, Iā€™m genetically inferior to the ultra-wealthy, fit, brainy folks and due to that I feel like it would be less than beneficial to humanity for me to reproduce. I donā€™t see a need to condemn my offspring to a life of serfdom essentially. I think the highly technophilic, wealthy cohorts within society are the ones who should reproduce heavily. I donā€™t see why you wouldnā€™t want certain groups to refrain from having children unless your hope is that there will be a genetic underclass to do any manual labor left in the future

However the story of Lilith has zero relation to the era when the Old or New Testament were being written, it comes many centuries later. It's like claiming Dante's Inferno or Paradise Lost is a valid part of the 1st century New Testament writings, it's literally that far removed, in fact a lot more even if you believe the dates of the Bible.

  3072. On Revelation: I think there's a pretty good case that Revelation is encoded history, (because they were writing at a time when history was propoganda), with a lot of the crazier imagery refering to astrological constelations (the Red Dragon is Draco, for instance) or planets (the red horse is Mars) as a proxy for time period these things were happening. That said, this is a good take. Lots of people have used Revelation over and over again to justify "Jesus is coming back next Tuesday" that I understand COMPLETELY that you wouldn't want to teach it to your kids.

I can barely keep track of what you're talking about, because I have to skip another ad every other minute. Please, tell me you're at least monetizing it and making a few cents off the adbomination? Though, TBH, since you're wealthy, ostere, and investing strategically, I'm more willing to skip than I would be for creators whose job is Youtube. (I've been skipping more on those today, though. The infomercials every other minute are just absurd, and mostly scams or snakeoil (so scams). )

  3084. Sharing! My belief in a progressive revelation is quite similar. Both from an organized center and within the individual. In some things during my life I have been ahead of my own faith affiliation. Just recently many minor changes have happened in rapid succession that I myself had already implemented much to the irritation ( and not at all for the purpose of irritating) of local congregation authorities. The explanation for the changes is that globally many many individuals and congregation authorities had been begging for guidance upstream in the hierarchy as the very thing that I had implemented personally was seen as completely acceptable according to Biblical standards. As to progressive revelation it is illustrated in how Jesus cured the Blind man by allowing him to gradually see instead of suddenly see. To much knowledge at one time is just terrifying. You mention Otin. Check out the older Egyptian belief in. Neter . And the Ancient Chinese tradition of ShangDi . Including an account of creation stunningly similar to the book of Genesis.

  3085. Violence is an idiotic strategy, and contrary to the command of Jesus Christ. "I say to you, you must love your enemy and pray for the one who persecuted you." If you want proof for that working, compare Jehovah's Witnesses and Old Belivers in Russia. Both persecuted during the Soviet period, Old believers happy to engage in the millitary when allowed, Witnesses strictly non violent. What happens? Jehovah's Witnesses are flourishing in Russia while being persecuted and even tortured by Putin and the Orthodox church. If you want to reduce the number of Muslims, evangelise Christianity in Pakistan. You may die, but you will also help some Muslims come to know God truly and contribute to the vindication of His name. I don't say that as an insult, martyrdom is glorious. Warfare or terrorism on the other hand just makes the faith look bad, how many westerners do you think were eager to convert to Islam after 9/11?

  3086. 26:28 I think both takes are true (I'm not Jewish I swear... unless?) The justification narrative Simone described probably plays a role, and so do the "malignant" psychological drives Malcolm accused them of. They go hand in hand, strengthening each other. It's hard to determine which came first. Perhaps one lowered one's immunity to the other, or the other way around, or they're both symptoms of something else yet. They do not contradict each other. Which culture's model of truth would this be closest to?

  3087. The gays that are all over social media screaming, yelling, melting down in total fear of Trump needs to watch videos by Scott Pressler and Brandon Straka ( and his #walkaway movement). If these two ( and all their followers) can fully support Trump and apparently don't feel their life is threatened at all by him, surely it would give the LGBTQ community a reason to pause, think and scrutinize everything the media, kamala and the Dems have said about Trump in an attempt to instill fear in them just to get their vote.

  3108. I agree with almost everything you guys say, and Iā€™ve been binge-watching your channel today, since Iā€™m down after a minor medical procedure. So of course I am going to nitpick about a tangential point! You significantly overstate the wine study. For one thing, the participants werenā€™t sommeliers, or even really experts. They were undergraduates! Ok, studying enology at the University of Bordeaux, so they may have liked and enjoyed wines. But they were still college kids. For another, they werenā€™t tested on their ability to determine red or white. They were given white wines dyed red, and they used terms more closely associated with red wines. It wasnā€™t a direct test. For what itā€™s worth, my wife and I often have dinner parties where we serve wine in opaque bags. We will frequently include a cheap grocery store wine, a midrange wine, and an expensive wine. I wish our friends chose the cheap stuff, but they invariably hone in on the pricey stuff.

  3120. I know these people. They do watch woke TV and movies, but also as much or more non-woke content, especially 90s television (Friends). None of them play games, I'm confident of that. They go out to local woke events, but they are known for being cheap. They drink wine at home with their friends and do drugs. I think games, especially online games, inoculate people against wokeness in some way.

  3121. I will add that there are a LOT of true believers, but they always seem to be the ones who have something to gain; They act like a gang, and want to be at the top of the hierarchy. It is a brutal cut throat culture. BUT, being around them a lot, the people on the peripheries are often not at all true believers when you talk to them and push comes to shove. It is just not worth it to go up against the leaders and bullies, who are definitely the minority. I think you have a perfect sense of what is going on. It is a mafia-style racket twisting the wrists of all of these industries.

  3144. Why are so many in the comments assuming that the kid is the user of the social media, as opposed to being on it. . My daughters have IG and FB accounts that are curated for hobbies and books. They take pictures, and help write the caption, and I post it. They never see the comments, and never interact. Family follows and Noone else. Not private. That way, when they hit the workforce, they will have 6-10 years of knitting, crochet, sewing, flower arranging, and non-fiction book reviews. Market positioning as wholesome, patient, attentive to detail and intellectual.

  3145. Great thought provoking video as usual. Agreed on the majority of points. Here are my two cents with the few pushbacks. 1) Sarcopenia in advanced age can and in most cases should be mitigated by weight lifting exercises. 2) This stereotype of the idiot body builder over compensating contrasts with the classics, such as Socrates when he stated: "No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable." 3) Now contrasting my own previous points, there are many studies correlating high protein intake and high caloric diets with accelerated aging. And in most cases weight lifters tend to consume more protein and calories alike, so that could be something to look into it as if it's more beneficial or detrimental for longevity. 4) On a personal note I've never achieved the desired physique simply for a matter of not prioritizing it or being too overly dedicated in the acquisition of knowledge as well as being a workaholic. And to be honest, laziness. I did for the first time in my life managed to train consistently from august last year until may this years, but dropped the ball in favour of work. Or so I tell myself. 5) Coca-cola is not a rational beverage in the least. The acidity on that thing is wild. But then, to each their own.

  3157. Yep, you're right that it's absolutely the case that in order to having meaningful impact on the world you have to be public. In the most minor of ways, someone who raises up in a company rises on the basis of the public perception of them in the company. So scale that up to the broader community? The entire world? And you're conclusion is that having large presence on social media allows for the leverage you need to have to highest potential impact.

  3159. Starting up a new campaign from scratch for any other candidate is going to be a herculanean task. Remember, they canā€™t just give all the money Bidenā€™s campaign has amassed over to the new candidate. Thatā€™s a violation of Federal Election law. So the new campaign is starting from a SEVERE financial handicap VERY late in the game. The Dems ONLY option if they replace Biden is to replace him with a candidate that already has instant nationwide name recognition, and is looked on favorably by the Dem base. Hillary wants it, but I think she comes with too many negatives for the Dem voter base. Newsome and Whitmer donā€™t have the name recognition. AOC hasnā€™t earned her place that high in the party or with their voter base. I think the Dems only option would be to run Michelle. Sheā€™s instantly recognizable. The Obama name is still popular with the base, and Barack can continue to run the country from behind the scenes for another four to eight years, just like heā€™s been doing with Joe. None of the other possibilities keeps Barackā€™s thumb quite so solidly on the reins of control.

    1
  3178. I've long suspected that Biden wouldn't be the 2024 Democratic nominee, but I've been hearing good arguments lately that might be changing my mind on that. People are obviously clamoring for a new candidate now, but I've been hearing more and more frequently that the rumor mill in DC suggests that they're stuck with Biden whether they want him or not. They simply don't have and can't get all the money they need in order to successfully field a brand new candidate so late in the game with only 4 months and change before the election. Their only chance at a new candidate is forcing Biden to resign and following the chain of succession, but as you so well pointed out, Harris might be even more hated than Biden is. Hypothetically, they might be able to throw in somebody else (and whether they end up running this year or in 2028, I think Gavin Newsom and Michelle Obama would be dangerous and difficult opponents), but I'm pretty sure it's against campaign finance law to just give Biden's war chest over to his newly appointed successor. If they were planning to replace him, this had to have heen financially planned well in advance, and the fact they haven't pulled the trigger on replacing Biden yet with such little time left on the clock suggests to me that either the Democratic party were deluded enough to believe it wouldn't be necessary or that there was enough internal pushback from Biden and his people to prevent that from happening. Either way, regardless of the eleventh hour panicking that's been going on, I don't think they have any good options left. Based on the various stories I've heard from many people who have met or personally know Donald Trump, I think Simone has the better read on who he actually is as a person. I think he absolutely did start to feel bad for Biden at some point in the debate. My guess is that it was probably around the time he said that he had no clue what Biden was saying. I think be fumbled the ball a bit in his response to a couple of questions that he should have had locked down (his Charlottesville response comes immediately to mind), but on the whole, he did exactly what he needed to do. Even though CNN and the Biden team made sure that all of the cards were stacked in Biden's favor, what they didn't seem to realize, which thankfully Trump and his team did, is that all Trump needed to do was look composed, competant, and sensible, then just let Biden talk long enough to stumble into an embarassing senior moment. Unfortunately, for everyone involved and everyone who watched, the entire debate turned into an embarrassing senior moment...

  3180. I think you're overthinking things. Kamala Harris was not elected candidate. When she attempted a run in 2016, she was wildly unpopular and the first to bow out of the primaries. Since then she has done NOTHING to improve her image, repeatedly showing her utter lack of preparation at every turn and representing a (theoretically) not insignificant share of a presidency that saw life get relentlessly worse for the average voter of whatever ethnic makeup. The expectation that any "racial" group should be expected to vote for this puppet is old-timey racism and way out of touch. Most people are and have been struggling, they have no time for yuppie problems, they need to somehow make rent AND buy food next month, and it aint looking good.

  3222. Kamala Harris is so bad as a candidate to the voters who actually matter, independents in the swing states, that I am terrified the Democratic leaders know the roof is about to cave in on the United States, and that they want Donald Trump and the Republicans to take the blame. There have rarely been candidates for national office in the United States who have so little real qualifications or skills in anything. I am also wondering why Joe Biden decided the Traveling Chief of Staff for Harris's 2020 Presidential campaign deserved a promotion to be Joe Biden's campaign manager for 2024. No wonder that apparently the Biden campaign apparently had not polled certain swing states for two months, until they finally did so and delivered the bad news last weekend.

  3228. There's no fundamental personality trait that makes extroverts "gain energy" while introverts "lose energy." This is a secondary effect of reward sensitivity (the meaning of extraversion in Big Five model). Social time is inherently energy-intensive, and it happens that extraverted people feel more rewarded by it (all things equal).

  3229. I love your dirndl! And I agree with your observations on daycare and public school. From experience. A masters in education didn't teach me what I've seen in 25+ years of actual teaching. And seeing the grief of my friends who weep at dropping of their babies at "professional" daycares. It's heartbreaking. I tell them we don't take it for granted that we are blessed to be able to stay home with our son. But that's just a lie. It's not dumb luck we "got to" stay home. It's financial choices. It's not heeding the indoctrination. When you are on the outside looking at friends who insist that their morose, defeated kids are better socialized than our blissfully happy 13yo son, you realize the indoctrination is real.

  3241. This video is fairly spot-on. I think it tracks logically with both the majority age groups involved within those communities in the first place AND it continues to track along with those people's evolution of thought AND the counter cultures that would have popped up. It was almost amusing to see the atheism community diverge to woke feminist college academics and fall off a cliff, while the other part of the community watched that happen and saw how it was hijacked and then went the other way, all while maturing and realizing that the reason it went off a cliff was it was probably always destined too and when you hold a mirror up to that mindset, Christianity and sacredness and how it ties into the American history and rights bestowed by God vs just what a gov decides to give and take away at will. It's also not a small detail to watch certain figures fall apart on the political side, like a Sam Harris. You see the huge moral blind spots and realize the disaster that those ideologies give you and that the bad parts of Christianity were really mostly bad publicity and anomalies vs the norm.

  3243. Quite a wild ride there, from Dune to Gor. My observation of the world suggests that women-in-general obsess over their social position, while men-in-general obsess over affecting the world. If so, a society somehow lacking women might lose any sense of cohesion and fall to chaos and old night.

So stormtroopers bad aim isn't an equipment or training problem so much as an organic result of pressure to socially conform in late-stage communism: "They pretend to pay us and we pretend to shoot." Mediocrity is job security; demonstrate competence by exceeding your quota and you get the harder job on the next mission with no additional compensation.

I'm going to make every decision around how little effort I need to give towards parenting -buy home that's as hard for them to die or get injured in as possible (e.g. single storey) -no birthdays or christmases until they're old enough that they know about it -very cheap or recycled presents etc. The only thing I'll put a tonne of effort towards is athletics/sports and protecting them from prog infection.

  3255. "But how will they socialise???" is only a problem when you have one or two kids. When you have lots of kids and they have lots of cousins (biological or cultural) it's a no brainier who they'll be with! (Never mind that school kids seem to end up more antisocial in the long run...) The getting sick thing is so true! I didn't attend daycare until it was mandated by the government (ew), I was outside running around in the mud and playing in the sand pit and petting random cats and dogs and I ONLY started getting sick in daycare! I see the same thing happening to kids in my family, as soon as they go into daycare we can't string together a month without someone catching something.

  3262. My wife and I are doing IVF, and we picked a girl. We both want a boy AND a girl. However, I am hesitant to have a boy, exactly because of the bigotry I experienced as a young man described here. But also from observing a lot of these same beliefs in my partner. She loves her nephews, but has beliefs like 'male children fall behind female children because they're just not as good. Why try to help them when males are just inferior?' So, it is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

  3267. I had my son (currently aged 2) during my Master's program and had a daughter not long after graduating. Plus, my husband's been in medical school this entire time, he graduates this spring. We can both attest that having babies while studying is a very good combination. I'm also planning on homeschooling because I'm pretty sure I can do a better job than what modern schools are pumping out. I'm currently staying at home with both kids while working on a book (it's currently in its infancy, but it's basically about why the Democrats & progressive ideology suck). Careers do not have to be linear. If you wait until your career is "in the right place" to have children, then you will simply never have children. So if you're on the fence... do it, they're a lot of work but they're so worth it.

  3271. Excellent point about the intersectional pride flag being flown in every leftist-subsumed institution as a flag of conquest. That is precisely what it is, their very own N*zi flag flying over Paris. Very interesting notion that it might be considered bull-baiting against the traditional queer community, its bad enough that they deliberately want to antagonize their traditional enemies.

  3277. I should preface this by saying that i really hope to see this channel grow. Both of you have magnetic personalities, and so many of your ideas feel like more refined versions of things that've been stewing in my mind for a while now. I'm kinda obsessed. However, I'm surprised to see you two speaking with so much insight about this topic. When I first stumbled across this channel, I wrote you off as these exact sort of people, from the thumbnail alone. I wouldn't have clicked on it at all if it weren't for the contrast between your appearances and the channel name. Ive heard the term "based" referred to as an alt-right dogwhistle. So seeing a couple of obvious lefty pseudo-intellectuals using the term as part of their channel name was definitely an attention grabber. I think my initial judgement has a lot to do with Simone's glasses. I figured maybe it was a calculated thing to help stand out visually from other aspiring influencers in your thumbnails, but then i saw the reddit reply video where you talked about it. I think internet people have already caught on to the "wearing glasses to signal intellect" thing. Wearing old thick-rimmed glasses with the lenses popped out is a known hipster stereotype. Full moon glasses also give off that vibe. To achieve that effect better, I think you should ditch the Lakitu goggles and consider similarly shaped glasses with thinner rims. Or thick rimmed glasses with a more conventional shape. Having both makes it clear you dont actually need the glasses and are wearing them as an ego thing. Sorry if this comes across as needlessly aggressive. I'm also autistic and come from a position of wishing people would've been more frank with me about how some of my own fashion decisions came off. My high school bowlcut had me looking like simple jack lol. I have tried to showing this channel to a friend and had an issue getting him to engage with it, i think for the same reasons that made me initially sceptical. The glasses are definitely iconic, and have utility that way. I'm sure you know that. But they might also present an obstacle by causing people to initially underestimate your level of self awareness, thereby casting doubt on the quality of your takes.

  3280. Biden is a problem because his obvious cognitive deficits lay bare the fact that the president isn't really in charge of anything, though his or her outward persona can be leveraged in managing public opinion. Harris' record reflects a willingness to advance her position regardless of harm to others, as opposed to consistent convictions that will guide policy under her administration, so that administration will enact whatever the deep state wants. If she found it expedient to court the police union when ladder-climbing as a prosecutor, presumably her means of having done so are of little consequence when she's made top puppet and has only to say her lines at the podium. It wouldn't seem that her selling points under present cicumstances have much to do with being tough on crime, and her record as a prosecutor would be more of a liability than an asset in courting or keeping her present base.

  3284. Never thought that Jon Stewart could be the Democrats antidote to rid the woke left, but boy does that make sense! If the Republicans were able to allow Trump, a celebrity businessman with zero political experience, to win the primary nomination AND win presidency, then Democrats have their shot too if they brought Stewart in. The only problem? Jon has very vocal in calling out the bs but he keeps bending the knee. Notice when Jon left the Daily Show and just kept it low, there was NO ONE to keep the left in check. Maher dropped his disdain for the woke, but I donā€™t think he grasps he is one of the condescending leftists who contributed to giving these people more power to abuse. Meanwhile Jon calls out the BS but is not condescending to that extent he wonā€™t listen to other peopleā€™s concerns and not talk down to them. He might rebuttal with a quirky joke that can sting, but Jon at least is aware how out of touch the Democrats, not just the left, the Democrats have been. Itā€™s too bad he joined with the TDS cause if he didnā€™t go down that avenue, I think he would have won a lot of the early Trump supporters that originally were in Obamaā€™s camp but were labeled as deplorables, racist, and garbage just because they believed in Trump. And while I donā€™t always agree with Jon, I do admire his dedication to actually look after the firefighters who are going through severe health issues related to being in the action of 9/11. So Jon at least has one little experience with politics and he has to go to Congress to get the fund to look after our New York heroes. Itā€™s funny how at least HE has proven to be more useful than Hollywood in the last 10 years and he was missing for most of it lol.

  3285. You have a lot of good points but for one letā€™s start off with thereā€™s no such thing as Black people. We do not match the color black number two thereā€™s no such thing as African-Americans. A lot of us did not come over on ships. We were already here, but you are so right my grandmother my mother were definitely raised in a two parent family home. All of the kids went to college and they were actually really conservative.

  3286. Malcom i believe your right overall in way. In the sense that, god does have to correct us before we become a space civilzation. Because our badness would only scale. War on a glactic scal billions dying in days, stuff like that. The entire universe would just be a cacophony of suffering. So sin was a fail safe buit into us as his creation to take us out should we malfunction. Which we did. And then because they love us and our potential as well as the fact that satan brought up and issue of his right to rule. They decided to save us. Thats why being christ like is so important, because only a christ like person can proprogate throught the univers and fill it with peace and happiness

  3290. One thing to keep in mind when talking about concord and it's flop is that it was a live service game. This is really important because it lives and days based on the number of its concurent players. And you can compare it to its competitors like OW2, TF2, Paladins, even games like fortnite, apex legends, league of legends, dota2, to an extend since they are all live service games. Single player games, the ones you mentioned skyrim and harry potter, are supposed to have fever players so long after release, that fact that they still have a large amount of people playing them is credit to their quality.

Re: Turkey Tom...I actually think he's pretty aligned with the Pepe style Right. Hes cool with Destiny who he rips on for he's views and Im pretty sure he's a fan of MDE and Sam Hyde and he's just careful about being too vocal about anything too political to avoid controversy. He's been platformed since he was like 14 or something so it would add up for him to be hype vigilant.

If he did the shopping our budget would be blown because he never looks at prices and is more likely to buy things based on a whim. I am kind of a psycho with laundry and dishes, because I don't think anyone else does them right! We do split childcare about 50/50, depending on who is available to do things like get up in the night or go to the doctors appointments. But otherwise by and large we have it split up that stuff in the house is mine, stuff outside is his- car repairs, lawncare, snow removal, etc.

  3310. That's kind of hilarious that Hakuna Matata was by far the most popular song from the Lion King, and as a kid I never even realized that that was connected to the downfall in any way. I guess that's how you get away with sneaking conservative messaging into Hollywood back then (now you just barely can at all), which is to pretend like you're glorifying the status quo ideology of liberalism, hedonism, materialism, etc., but then you demonstrate what that leads to in a low-key way that smarter or more responsible people can still draw the right conclusion from, which is basically what the Barbie movie was. The Horseshoe takes on that (Knowles, Connor Tomlinson, etc.) were way, way better than the dxmb Shapiro/Walsh type takes where they just bxrn a doll in a trxsh can or whatever.

And while groups and systems are certainly realities...it's A LOT easier to dehumanize what is an abstraction. Which is why politics based on the Individual or at least giving equal concern to the individual will always be more humanitarian. Thats my take at least. Maybe I'm missing something with it. Lmk

  3324. I'm a fan of this podcast & I'd definitely say Simone is at minimum 25X better (more engaging) than an average New York Times journalist/writer.

Two of them in moderately lower socio-economic areas, and one in a mostly well thought of but brash middle-class mall.

  3334. Hi Simone, It's hard to tell from the video but your AR-15 appears to have no sights on it. I'd suggest the following inexpensive items to make it more practical and user friendly. Fixed sights or back up sights so you can aim properly. Sling mounts and a sling so you can carry it and still use your hands. For example use your phone or pick up the kids and carry them to safety without having to drop the rifle. Magazines that couple together or a small shoulder bag with some extra magazines so you have extra ammo. Cheers! I really enjoy the videos. Thanks for the house tour. It looks like a very lovely home.

  3345. You two are very fascinating an unique philosophically and politically. Many contradiction - but that's good, because it shows you are firing your own path. I particularly mean the strange combination of believing in evoltuion, understanding that health requires understanding of our natural conditions, being pro-natal, and doing the trad-wife thing, and acknowledging sex differences - with being transhuman, hating the human condition and wanting to overcome it, praising this idea that humanity will overcome all of its curses (including 'women lusting after men', so that surely means an end to sexuality, sex difference, and/or heterosexuality). Another contradition in this video - is hating the left for glorifying sins - but also then saying that the essence of humanity is in 'what we chose for ourselves', and saying that god is humanity, and worshipping god is serving future humanity.

Secondly, I am personally designing privately biotech for animal uplift. Next and primarily, treating both aging and cancer as closely related diseases, radiation tolerance for space, freeze tolerance, and extreme heat tolerance. The secret is mostly in using crispr based gene circuits on independent biological viruses like vectors that are made to infect all cells in the human. These would monitor and activate at programmed times. All of these are beyond current regulations, but luckily, they are irrelevant with respect to how things are going. So it will allow specific people to be at the center of the civilization easy and for cheap, which is the goal.

  3352. LOL, when you try to be funny, like the French thing.. don't stop failing at comedy and being unredeemable dorky. This analysis really got the neurons explodin, thanks for the vid. You make me laugh intellectually when you aren't trying to be funny. When you try comedy I blush, it's embarrassingly cute..

Doing a google search I found "How Bacillus Cereus Can Make You Sick from Reheated Rice" & then "Keep cooked rice and pasta in your fridge ā€” not on your counter ā€” to help prevent this sneaky food poisoning" well, yes, obviously

  3355. Great discussion, particularly on the etymology of 'meek' and the implications, though my favorite part was the last minute which brought me back to the endless hours of post holiday fun where every couch cushion within our humble home was turned into castles, forts, and dungeons filled with scream of laughter...and the occasional crying. Happy holidays.

  3358. Started laughing my head off when Simone got to the part about Octavian asking to marry everyone and not knowing where it was coming from only for Malcolm to say it was him. Her expression was priceless.

  3360. This is fascinating for me, I always thought some of these younger therapists just drank the cool aid lil too much. I have laughed at these kids and their condescension and impudence towards me. Mental health is beyond trash at the medicaid level where im at. Bad shit is happening here I mean bad! I actually fear being a survivor and telling my story. I am forty so different era but similarities abound. Much corruption if any one wants an answer follow the money I mean really follow the moneyšŸ˜œ. Also ill say some family units are cult like and some of us have been in cults/ cult like organizations. As a late diagnosed autistic with cptsd I laughed when they added me to the flag. Where where you when i was getting attempted unalived for being "weird." Ie possibly a homošŸ˜‚. Yo shit was different 90s 2000s. Listening to genz talk about trauma is traumatizing. Like yeah i got knocked out and thrown in a river... Like therapy was martha Welsh like a whole band of kids would chase me through the neighborhood on bikes.. Please tell me about the person who wouldn't use your pronoun though. I was never protected by society more society was perpetually trying to actually dead me. Ill call you anything you want thats not my problem its just... That that is your big deal! Whole world is hoing to shit and your focused on pronouns. Like we got bigger problems people.

  3362. This was one of my favorite anime when I was younger (I think I only saw the first 2 seasons though), and I always just thought of it as extremely effective pro-masculinity propaganda to indoctrinate young, weak boys into becoming men in a much more effective, thorough, holistic, morally balanced, solidly oriented, and fun way than most typical Shounen anime (which as a genre as a whole is orders of magnitude better than the crap the West had devolved into even back then). I wasn't really familiar with the concept of natalism back then, but I always had this Musk sort of ideology since I was a toddler that intelligent human life should be preserved somewhere in the universe as long as possible. But for some reason I never tied that to the concrete process of having kids or the things it takes for people to be able to do that (materially, spiritually, culturally, etc.) until I became anti-woke during the last election cycle and realized how evil leftism and even more recently liberalism are, and then sort of exhausted a much larger share of the entire rightism rabbit hole than most people who just become mildly anti-woke based on 1 or 2 issues that bother them about the left.

  3365. I was thinking the same thing. I love the mundane dinner chats at the end. I also appreciate they seemed to have dropped the preview intros. Those seem like cool editing ideas but ultimately they are a time suck for the audience.

  3368. People are not interested in buying woke products because being woke is a form of pity and is not supposed to cost anything; It is for a maternal-emotional feeling of superiority over "disadvantaged" others "Yeah, I approve you as a morbidly-obese, trans-woman of color from my imagined position of power, but I don't want to be one - even in a video game."

  3369. Another interesting thing, in the Netherlands during the 1990's "the face of the far-right" was a Gay Feminist professor of Sociology, in the Netherlands homosexual males are disproportionately Liberal (right-wing), the only left-wing homosexuals I know are lesbians and even many Lesbians I know are Liberals (again, most Liberals in the Netherlands are right-wing to far-right).

  3374. Simone, what your describing when you see Malcolm is what occurs when a person has been placed under ā€˜cupidā€™sā€™ spell - itā€™s a function of a personā€™s ā€˜unseenā€™ puppeteer manipulating their brain chemicals. It can be easily ā€˜undoneā€™ if/when a puppeteer sees fit.

  3376. It would be a missed opportunity if you didn't make a video commenting on the philosophy of 'Abathur' from Starcraft 2. There are interesting parrallels in your no-nonsense approach to things and his perspective might lend some insight to you on your own. While I do acknowledge the surface level absurdity to comment on the philosophy of a fictional character from a video game aside and the likelihood of this not getting many votes due to people not knowing this very niche reference, I think this would be useful enough for me to give this a shot. You can find a compilation of Abathur's diaglogue from Starcraft 2 fairly easily on youtube.

  3387. When I was in the army I over saw a contract where I had to pay a large part of my annual budget to the "prime" contractor to screw up my slide show every week while the sub contractors did all of the actual work. Then I had to also pay a third party auditor to go over the program budget which they were months late on approving which caused real world delays on the battlefield. I could have done so much more with my budget if i didn't have to waste money paying people in Virginia who invented a program while they were in that they then "oversaw" once they retired from the military. Just one small example of government waste.

  3388. True, but pretty much all of the splitting that they are doing in this video is accurately reflected in the Hebrew, in fact there's more detail to go into.
