I love Thomas Sowell, but the first respondent, Ian M., has both the accurate quote as well as its proper author. Eric Hoffer is no Thomas Sowell (no one is), but Hoffer wrote some wonderful things in his day as well.

@jausti2 In short, you have no interest whatsoever in facts, and instead choose to repeat propaganda which ignores all that. The truth has been written about by folks like Thomas Sowell, Heather Mac Donald, Larry Elder, John McWhorter, Shelby Steele, Walter Williams, and others, but you'd rather live your life falsely believing that you are a victim. It's a sad way to live, but apparently how you prefer it.

That's funny!

@holdensagan Holdy old boy, how are you these days?

Racism is absolutely a problem in the US - racism against Asians and whites

@MrTruthAddict Enjoy victimhood, you poor thing.

@lesliepage3886 You spelled it correctly. Loury is wonderful, but boring as oatmeal.

@Basteal Same for you. The ignorance of people like yourself is mind-boggling to comprehend.

@mrki731 Not true, which you would know if you watched the video. Not that it matters: With your attitude, you'll never make it anyway.
2
I couldn't make it past the first few pages of Angela's Ashes. Frank McCourt seemed to have a sexual fetish for kids.
2
You watched a different video than the rest of us did
2
@noeltaylor3594 McWhorter is center, not left or right. And the "systemic racism" thing is so much BS.
2
That voice is not pretty
2
@danielvincent4292 Enjoy watching CNN and MSNBC, but when those are other leftist propagandists are your only sources of information, you end up sounding really uninformed.
2
@bluto212 That will never happen. There is a world of information out there today; spending a year reading an outdated and discredited trilogy is hardly on my to-do list. Try reading Thomas Sowell, which will get you a lot further in life.
2
@bluto212 Marx is discredited. Read more Sowell, the more the better.
2
@bluto212 Friedman taught Sowell. And I've read Friedman as well. I am familiar with basic Marxist theory, which is plenty, thank you. Sowell has no need to reinvent the wheel, and neither do I. If reading relatively recent philosophers is your thing, then go for Locke and Adam Smith. At least their ideas work, as opposed to Marx's.
2
@bluto212 No, we've had many, many years with which to see which ideas work and which don't. Marx's ideas have been an utter catastrophe. And I am familiar with his basic ideas, as I wrote, without needing to devote a major part of my life to reading his trilogy (most of which was written by Engels, by the way). How is it that a person who claims to be reasonable would prefer Marx and Engels to Locke and Adam Smith?
2
@bluto212 This is where you've gone entirely off the rails. No serious person would say that Friedman and Marx have anything significant in common. Or can we compare you to Donald Trump because you both wear shoes? That's about where you've gone now.
2
@bluto212 I should further point out that while Friedman would joke around about Marx being a fellow montarist, the true believers on the far left strongly dispute that characterization. Speaking of which, where you come up with Friedman and the quality theory of money??

@mvonwalter6927 Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, Russia - great places to live, right? I wonder why people risk their lives to leave.

@karfomachet7265 There is not one person on this eartb who would rather be you than be Jordan Peterson. And that includes you, as you know deep down.

@Maggie Christi Until he mentioned Red Skull, I was wondering if this was actually a recent interview, vs. an old one repackaged. Indeed, I'm so glad to see the good Dr. on the mend.
2
@Basteal Instead of writing the same thing twice, I wrote it first to your fellow ignoramus, and then wrote that the same applies to you as well. Not too complicated for anyone with even average intelligence. Apparently you don't qualify. Speaking of which, your favorite authors wouldn't combine to match the intellect of a Ben Shapiro, and certainly not of the great Thomas Sowell. If you were to give a fig for actual facts, Sowell would be the one you'd be paying attention to, although Shapiro is certainly worthwhile as well.

@circumventreality3770 Do not confuse your bias and hatred with facts. Your own dark and confused heart is a reflection of your own limitations, not to be blamed on others.
1
@jausti2 Except that the data shows that the only bias in the US currently is in favor of POCs and against whites and Asians. YT won't allow me to post links, but one can find the video where Larry Elder brought Dave Rubin over to the conservative side by citing facts, and one can read anything and everything written by Heather Mac Donald, and there is plenty more out there.
1
@jausti2 Your rhetoric makes clear that you are blindly racist, and enjoy being a victim. I'm sorry that you allergic to facts.
1
@jausti2 As I already explained above, YT automatically deletes any comments containing links. I already supplied a list of authors who have entirely debunked the claims of the race hustlers you idolize. Did you expect me to type out all their works here? Start by reading "Are We All Unconscious Racists?" by Heather Mac Donald. A simple online search will find the article. And before you ask me again, no, I can't put the link here, nor will I type out an 8,000 word article.

Geez, lady, if your IQ ever hits 100, sell quickly.

Nice vid, but it went off the rails in the last minute. The funeral home obviously allowed pre-need purchases. And being black is currently an advantage in the US: The statistics prove what the eye can see.

It's almost as if men and women are different. Who knew? The left can now begin to apologize to everyone whose life they ruined. Oh, and don't forget to make amends to James Damore.

@mrki731 It takes about one second to see that this video doesn't blab for "hours".

Anya Wale Thomas Sowell is brilliant, humble, and engaging. I have learned so much from him, as have many others.
1
Anya Wale It is sad that you are living in a bubble of lies, believing the narrative of perpetual victimhood. You could rise above and make something of yourself, you know, instead of looking for scapegoats.
1
@noeltaylor3594 Racism today is in favor of blacks and against whites and Asians
1
@noeltaylor3594 I'm sorry that you have no use for factual information. If living in a fantasy world works for you, I can't help you. But the facts are indisputable.

One must be both unintelligent and uninformed to be impressed with either DeAngelo or Kendi.
1
@bluto212 Oh lord. I can only hope that you are young.
1
@bluto212 Whatever that means. Marxism led to 100m dead bodies in the 20th century alone, but I guess that is not enough to dissuade you. Marx himself was a heartless grifter who treated family and acquaintances awfully. (Can't say he did the same with friends, but with friend - his only one, Engel, whom he treated like dirt.) There is nothing admirable about Marx or Marxism. Expand your horizons.
1
@bluto212 Your last two responses demonstrate clearly your utter lack of basic reading comprehension.
1
@mvonwalter6927 Still popular in North Korea, Russia, Cuba, Venezuela and other hellholes. All places where people risk their lives to get out.
1
@mvonwalter6927 Anyone who thinks that John Stossel has anything to do with Marx's relationship to the concepts underlying Marxist countries is not too strong on the history front.

Oof. Awful.

Louryis lovely, boring as oatmeal, unfortunately.

@karfomachet7265 Trolls like yourself are very unhappy people, looking for relevance by trying to provoke strangers. You poor thing.
