  1. lol at structural racism. What does that even mean…?

  2. Get offline folks.. seriously, the people I talk to at work or out on the trails don’t feel like this at all,.. on YouTube where 99% videos preach doom and gloom - of course you will make people more depressed lofl

  3.  @stanleyshannon4408  and YouTube creators help multiply that hopelessness by putting out endless video with catch titles like “civil war is coming!”… do you folks not see that?

  4.  @eleri7024  yes so she would have the immense power of good parental privilege .. having a mother and father in the home is a privilege on its own And having a hard working successful set of parents is a double privilege.
    18
  5. This is not productive though. Her examples of ‘racism’ are lame.. she sees and feels racism everywhere because she sees everything through the lens of race! Andrew isn’t willing to call her on it

  6. Reverse racism is a very dumb term.. racism Is racism. Period

  8. I did not know Richard disliked Piers that much - I thought they were casual friends tbh

  9. Strange how IQ privilege is never brought up by anyone .. it’s by far the biggest privilege that exists
    7
  10. “How about letting people get on with their lives?” Depends what that means..? If it means where biological men can just walk into a woman’s changing room then no.
    7
  11. This is a pointless conversation ..

  12.  @Perditions  I agree, I don’t see a solution at this point. I’m not even sure how to reshape the puddle - I’m not religious but I do realize how important it is to many people. It really gives them a sense of order, peace and meaning. I have to admit the atheist mindset is pretty bleak when it comes to death and what happens after .
    7
  13. Yeah that’s what I’m Gathering from this discussion.. he really wants his group to be in the victim class
    7
  14.  @alanG3806 yes and the left do the same thing but just use ‘racist or ‘sexist’ or some other IST .. both sides are the same if you haven’t noticed
    6
  15. The entire ‘privilege’ discussion is so mind numbing. How can you talk about privilege and not include class or zip code privilege? Anyone that’s looked at the data would tell you zip code privilege is one of the best privileges to have .
    6
  16. No these conversations are going nowhere though.. you can’t argue with embedded victimhood and emotion

  17.  @adryel9458 we really need to try to back away from constantly accusing people of “grifting” or pandering just because they change their minds. We have to stop trying to discredit them by calling them “right wing” or “left wing” or “woke”.. it’s petty tbh but politics are a very tribal sport and it makes people dumber so I don’t expect it to change
    5
  18. Agree. I’ve watched these discussions since the 90s and it’s only gotten worse! You are correct - there is no way to fix this
    5
  19. “Truth is not a left wing value”

  20. Yeah I’ve never been religious but we are in a strange time now. Many are looking for something new to believe in - others believe women can have penises. Then you have the old school Christian types .

  21.  @therealdeal3672 religion has definitely helped humanity in ways .. America isn’t America without judeo Christian beliefs
    4
  22.  @lampb0obs but there are groups that are trying to police language and behavior - are you trying to say they aren’t? Big tech was going in a very bad direction a year or two ago but it seems it’s steered back towards sanity
    4
  23.  @evesapple there were a few points where Dawkins didn’t seem like he wanted to talk about certain things. It was a bit odd
    4
  24. I like Jordan a lot but he is shockingly long winded
    3
  25. Yeah seems every other comment I make gets deleted . It took me 4 attempts to make a small post about the cover of a videogame box.. wtf
    3
  26. Of course and this is why I laugh when people try to bash academics or intellectuals and try to completely discredit them Because they are wrong on a particular issue . There’s not a single intellectual in history that is right about everything
    3
  27. Yeah I’ve noticed it’s difficult to agree on basic facts and terms these days.

  28. “I don’t want to do the culture war slop” Oh please Konstantin, your show indulged completely in that culture war slop for years!! At one point it seemed like 75% of your shows were about trans or race or gender war issues.. you built your channel around these anti-woke issues so don’t act like you are above engaging in that sort of thing.. Oh and the trigger boys are not centrists, they are center right and there’s nothing wrong with that but the more they try to claim they aren’t the sillier they look.. if you are left wing, own it - same goes for the right wing

  29. Or how about the complete insanity and hysteria surrounding police brutality in 2020? That was the first time in my life that I felt the world had lost its mind. I still don’t think we have gone back to normal. The entire discussion around race(and gender) is so warped and broken at this point
    2
  30. Umm but people lost their jobs because they didn’t the vaccine - were you not aware of this? I’m not anti vaccine by any means but I find both sides to be pretty dim when it comes to certain things
    2
  31. Is there a younger Up and coming WLC? I’m not religious but I think Craig is brilliant
    2
  32. That was my problem when I was an atheist - I kept skirting closer to nihilism and I was a pretty unhappy guy. I still am not religious but the whole “purpose” and “what happens when you die?” Really have me wondering or thinking that there must be something else out there . What is the modern atheist outlook on death? You just go black and that’s it…?
    2
  33. Sam and Rogan are hardcore “right wingers” now 🤣🤣
    2
  34.  @Valoelify I don’t know but from what I am noticing more women are seeing that being chained to a 50 hour work week isn’t exactly the pinnacle of freedom and happiness that they expected .
    2
  35. These guys need to form a new identity though - the constant ‘anti woke’ stuff is so tired as is the new ‘woke right’ bs.. it’s hilarious that Konstantin doesn’t want to do ‘culture war slop’ when he built his channel around it

  36. The bottom line with this entire discussion is you can either have systems based on merit or equality - you cannot have both!! Until we recognize this it’s pointless to discuss

  37.  @Itsstuff7328 you might be right but I have yet to see people like her change their mind. Even if she dies - academia is teaching generation after generation this narrative so
    1
  38.  @sheniahasiamah9802 woke messaging and PC culture has definitely played a role in todays dating market. I don’t know how anyone could disagree with this .. that said, there are other obvious factors like social media and people being lazy and obese Jordan Peterson has never blamed all of these problems on woke culture - he is pretty nuanced in this area
    1
  39.  @sheniahasiamah9802 what does feminism even mean at this point? Most modern feminists think women can have penises .

  40.  @pooheadlou don’t pollute the thread with multiple empty posts
    1
  41.  @ciaranmeeks9431 yep just think Of the high IQ folks born in third world countries . They were just born in the wrong place. Tragic

  42.  @geomicpri oh definitely Craig is great. I hope he’s training the young generation ..It may sound strange but I’m Rooting for the theists

  43. Keep in mind she sees privilege only through the lens of race and gender - she probably wouldn’t even acknowledge class or zip code privilege. So yeah

  44.  @onceamoth but it’s not politics guys .. it’s an algorithm that targets many key words and deletes it automatically.. no group is being specifically targeted as it’s happening to everyone! It’s comical how paranoid some get
    1
  45. Politicians don’t want to provide solutions - they want to give you little nuggets which might satisfy you just enough to prompt you to vote for them the next term. Neither party wants to fix the immigration problem - that is completely evident
    1
  46.  @SusanaXpeace2u that is both men and women though - they all seem to want people it of their league. For instance, there are plenty of single mothers that expect to land a childless hood looking guy with a good career . There’s a shocking lack of self awareness out there
    1
  47. Yes and if white majority countries are so unfair to her people then why do many black and brown people risk their lives to move and live there..? Have it make sense .. more African immigrants have moved to America of their own free will than black slaves were shipped here.
    1
  48. Bingo! These debates are pointless because a person of color can fall back on victimhood and personal experience and it must be believed by the other person or they are racist ..
    1
  49.  @eleri7024  no one can in 2024.. racism these days is whenever someone disagrees with you - that means you are racist. That’s how dumb things are in 2024
    1
  50. Eni feels you are racist therefore you are! That is her entire argument! I’m so tired of people like her
    1
  51.  @stephenlamley541  give a couple of the bigger names that are on the “real left”..
    1
  52. And no one will call her on her bullshit because she is black .. blame the white liberals for this
    1
  53.  @IHavent82Day yes but until white men and women start saying what they think and feel towards black men and women - this discussion will just go in circles and nothing will get solved. It amazes me that white liberal types are so scared of being called racist
    1
  54. “Positive discrimination” 🤔
    1
  55. Btw what is absurdism?
    1
  56. Yeah so many of these discussions are saying the same thing. Zzzzzz
    1
  57.  @ph8077  the far right is a problem now? In which way? Where do they hold power in the west?
    1
  58. Anyone else think Peter is just saying the same things over and over “the institutions are captured blah blah”…? I like him but he’s not saying anything new when he goes on different podcasts .. it’s pretty mind numbing at this point
    1
  59.  @memoryhero . “Unshackled AI/uncensored AI is going to eat woke AIs lunch” What do you mean by this?
    1
  60. Ever heard of Sex and the City? The entire show revolves around women that went around and had casual sex and seemed to love it . Modern women try to emulate that and it rarely works out
    1
  61. I’m afraid this channel already is audience captured to a large extent. Andrew is going to have to switch things up a bit as these topics are so tired

  62. Who is Joey?

  63.  @marcwilliams9824 rationality is the tool of the white man 😂
