WHY THERE IS WAR
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Well, I appreciate that.
And good morning, everybody.
It is Sunday, 11 a.m., just about, on the 8th of October.
And let's see here.
Yeah. Let's talk to the listeners first.
Hey Steph, I read your novel, The Future, and I cried at the hope of children being raised peacefully and depressed at the dysfunction of the world currently.
Yes, optimism has a shadow, and the shadow that it casts is despair.
And the more optimistic you become, the more you despair at the world as a whole.
And I was reading about...
Ah, it's interesting.
You know what? I've got a couple of topics today.
I've got a couple of topics today.
Well, of course, there's war.
And there is also inappropriate joy.
And there's also women who will come flocking to men as money runs out.
What would you like to start with?
I am your willing philosophy maiden.
I am your shield maiden of philosophy against the ills and troubles of the world.
War, women, war, joy, then money.
Money. Did I say money?
I guess I said money. Let's get war out of the way.
Wouldn't that be nice? Wouldn't that be nice to get war out of the way?
War? All right.
All right. So, I mean, obviously everybody knows, but yesterday, about the 50th anniversary of the 73 war, Hamas...
Launched 5,000 rockets into Israel.
And you can see these insane videos.
It's going to be just a brief touch into geopolitics.
It's not politics, it's geopolitics.
And you can see these amazing paratroopers from Hamas coming, floating down in the middle of, I assume, a drug-addled rave that a lot of people from Brazil apparently were at.
And they were rounding people up just this morning.
A couple of hundred people were found hiding in a sewage drainpipe.
Away from all of this, there are these appalling videos of drones.
So you've got these IDF soldiers who think that they're undercover because they're behind cars, they're behind shipping containers and so on, and the drones are just overhead and dropping the bombs on them.
It is just insane what is going on.
And insane is the right word.
It is the right word because...
Oh, well, we'll get into that.
So... Is Hamas saying that they were attacked first?
I bet they are. Well, of course, they're saying it's 75 years of oppression, right?
75 years of oppression, being crowded up against the sea, and so on.
So... Listen, tips are always gratefully appreciated.
I thank you. I'm being led down the garden path of geopolitics, as I used to do.
But... It's the ultimate causes, I think, that are the most interesting and the most important to talk about.
But if you have questions about this, the levels of atrocities seem to be high enough that it's open provocation.
All right, let's see here.
I wonder if Israel somehow caused Hamas to attack them so they had an excuse to invade the rest of Palestine, sort of like how FDR allowed Pearl Harbor?
Well, I mean, so the big question is the hundreds of billions of dollars spent around the world for intelligence agencies supposed to root out dangers to the country.
And this apparently, and of course, as you know, of course, if you live in Israel, but Israel is in a constant state of readiness for just these kinds of attacks.
And the big question, I think, on everyone's minds is how on earth could this possibly have been missed?
All of the surveillance, all of the intrusion, all of the listening in, how is any of this chatter, any of this missed?
And that is a big question.
Very, very big question.
Is there such a thing as watching too much Steph?
I've been listening each day and had a wild dream last night.
He invited me over to join him and his family for dinner, so I flew to Canada.
I felt very sad. My husband couldn't join us.
What a dream it was. Well, that's very nice.
That's very nice. If it's working for you, if philosophy is helping you, then...
I mean, don't think about me.
Think about philosophy, right?
If I'm an archway through which you can travel to see the world of reason and evidence and virtue, fantastic.
So it's not so much listening to me as it is being stimulated by philosophy.
And if that works for you, can you be too stimulated by philosophy?
Does Israel have a missile defense system?
Yeah, they have this thing called the Iron Shield.
This is the problem.
The problem is that whatever defense you build, this is why you need free market in the realm of defense, right?
Whatever defense you build is going to be studied obsessively, and a workaround is going to be found by your enemies.
that's inevitable. So you know you can pour all of this money
into X, Y, and Z defense and then like drones come along that can drop bombs right away like
basically Walmart technology
and your investment is for nothing.
Lots of people are saying that Israel has the best info in the region
There's no way they did not know about it.
Well, there's no way they did not know about it.
You will never go too far wrong over estimating potential mistakes.
Iron Dome, yeah, Iron Dome, thank you.
Iron Shield, I think it's the Iron Dome, yeah.
So, is this, you know what, guessing about geopolitical implications in terms of the short term is not particularly helpful.
And war, from a philosophical standpoint, is not interesting.
I mean, it's horrifying.
It's appalling. It's, of course, the initiation of the use of force, of which states in general fester on.
But war is the result of what?
What is war?
Yes. A fiat currency, certainly to some degree.
Child abuse, the state, failed diplomacy, the origin of war and child abuse, you should definitely look at that.
It's on my website, freedomain.com slash books.
Yes, what is it good for?
for absolutely nothing, say it again. I don't know that quoting song lyrics when
people are being slaughtered is necessarily the most humane approach to the situation, so you might
want to cut back on that a little bit.
uh...
job security for the elite I...
Censorship. Yes.
Yes. Yes.
Violence is the result of censorship.
Violence is the result of censorship.
So the path to what is happening in the world at the moment, hit me with a why if you'd like to know the steps that lead to what's going on at the moment.
Okay. Okay, because, I mean, obviously there's an old saying, it was some invader, and he said, stop quoting laws to people holding swords.
Okay. Stop quoting laws to people.
And he didn't just mean legality.
He meant morals.
They're like, stop quoting laws to people holding swords.
So how do you get war?
Well, You banish those at war with war.
You banish the peacemakers, you banish the reasoners, and you banish the truth-tellers.
And once you banish the reasoners and the peacemakers and the truth tellers,
then you can get your war.
So, let's talk about Satan.
Whether this is real or allegorical is not particularly important at the moment.
Satan is the father of what?
What is he called the father of?
Lies! That's right.
Satan is the father of lies.
He's not the violence of war.
He's not the father of war.
He's not the father of abuse.
He's not the father of violence or torture or rape or assault or murder.
He is the father of lies.
Can Satan Directly intervene and cause things to happen in the world.
No! He does not have that power.
How does Satan work?
How does he do what he wants to do?
He tempts.
He tempts with lies.
He tempts with lies.
I remember seeing a brief video of someone who had set up a booth at a university campus trying to sell OnlyFans.
And he would stop these pretty girls and he would say, you should have an OnlyFans channel.
And the girls, one of the girls said, I don't think my father would really approve of that or go for that.
And he said, he wouldn't mind if you gave him a Lamborghini.
Right? He tempts you with lies.
He tempts you with lies.
Why are Satan's lies tempting?
what does Satan have to do to your consciousness to raise the temptation of lies
the greatest?
He tells you what you want to hear I mean... A lot of people do that.
A lot of people do that. Appeal to your lower taste.
Yes, a lot of people do that too.
And there's nothing wrong with having...
I was just making some coffee this morning and I saw an ad with a fork holding up a nice piece of juicy steak and it was like...
Yum!
For breakfast. And it looked good.
So, I mean, there's nothing wrong with appealing to your lower taste, your sort of animal nature, your mammalian nature.
There's nothing wrong with that. Tempts with short-term pleasure.
At the expense of long-term happiness.
Yes, yes, yes.
You can put it any way you want.
The way that I would put it is what the devil does is he shortens your time horizon.
He shortens your time horizon.
I mean, my dear Lord above, life is long.
I mean, I feel like I've lived about 15 different lifetimes.
I've still got 30 years or more to go.
Life is long, man.
And Satan says, there's no future, be happy now.
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
What's important now is the short-term pursuit of pleasure or avoidance of pain, right?
Your dad will be happy if your bleached butt can buy him a Lamborghini.
well there's a sentence I wasn't expecting to say today but nonetheless
it fits right now short-term
well fame success whatever it is he doesn't have you think of really the second half of your life
right doesn't really have you I mean, it's funny because nobody ever taught me to think of the second half of my life except maybe a couple of doctors, you know, don't do this, don't do that, don't smoke, whatever.
But it was actually Carl Gustav Jung, the psychologist, who helped me to sort of think of the second half of my life.
When I was in my early 20s, I went through a whole phase of reading Jung endlessly because I was really working on self-knowledge and deep sort of Dream-based stuff.
I read Freud's Interpretation of Dreams.
I read a lot of stuff from Jung.
And Jung said about the second half of your life.
So the first half of your life is about striving and will and action.
The last half of your life is more about consolidation and reaping the rewards of your actions.
And you don't want to strive. You want to strive when you're young, but you don't want to strive forever because it'll burn you out.
So it's a sort of tipping point, right?
And I remember thinking about that.
Okay, I got a plan for the second half of my life.
Got a plan for the second half of my life.
And everyone who takes risks incomprehensible to the general population is doing so.
Why? Why?
Why do we take such crazy risks?
Why do we go out on a limb?
Why do we tell the truth though it brings hellfire down upon our heads?
Why? Because we're thinking of the second half of our life and the conscience we're going to have to live with.
the conscience we're gonna have to live with.
So I always think of my conscience as an earnest,
insomniac, prickly roommate.
it.
I'm out of breath.
If he loves you, there's almost nothing you can't do.
If he hates you, there's almost nothing you can do.
If you appease him, he will not respect you.
If you honor him, he honors you in return.
If you attempt to manipulate him he will drain you of energy and inspiration.
If you attempt to bully him he will acquiesce and brittle your bones.
And you don't hear much talk about the conscience anymore.
I don't really hear much.
I grew up, people talked about the conscience a lot.
Even the Jiminy Cricket stuff, right?
You don't hear much about the conscience anymore.
That's not an accident.
That's not an accident. Brittle your bones.
Yeah, it just means that if you bully your conscience, right?
Everyone's doing it. It's fine.
Stop being such a prude.
It's fine. It's okay.
Then he'll be like, hey man, fine.
But he brittles your bones in that he weakens your entire structure.
You become tremulous, aggressive.
You don't get peace. You can't stand on your own two feet.
You constantly need prop up and support and ego boosting.
Sorry, that was mildly poetic.
And so when you talk to the world about the long-term consequences of moral decisions, that's when you get slashed.
Because that is what provokes the conscience.
Right? So...
When I talked about the long-term consequences of female fertility, right, when I said, you're mostly fertile at 40, you're going to live to be 80 or 90, what are you going to do for those 40 or 50 years?
That is saying you've got a second half of life that you need to build towards, that you need to take care of, that you need to respect.
You know, like the second half of your life is largely built on the health decisions of the first half of your life.
And reminding you of the second half of your life is reminding you that you have a roommate, that you dominate when you're young, but he will dominate you when you get older, so you better get along with him so he doesn't F you up later.
Because when you're young, you can dominate your conscience, right?
I mean, you've got youth, you've got vitality, you've got energy, you've got beauty, you've got peers, you've got ambition, you've got drive.
So you can rev up the chainsaw of your ambition and motivation and drown out the murmur of the conscience.
But I'm telling you, friends, as you age, as you age, your will depletes and your conscience strengthens.
Your distractions vanish And that burning sore eye that judges what you do irrevocably, unarguably, beyond manipulation.
The objective universal scribe of everything you do and have done.
Who writes on the very fabric of your being in letters visible from space that can never be erased.
If you F your roommate when you're young, he will F you back when you're older.
Midlife crisis, that's right.
What is a midlife crisis? You need to will the impossible to achieve anything when you're young.
A midlife crisis is when you realize that your will is powerless against your conscience.
Your will is powerless against your conscience.
Your intellect is powerless against your conscience.
So all these people who are like, oh, there's no such thing as truth, there's no such thing as morality, there's no such thing maybe even of reality, there's just a bunch of nonsense that they use to cloud other people's conscience so that they can exploit them.
Everyone who tells you anything is unreal is targeting one thing and one thing only.
When they tell you something is unreal, up is down, black is white, two and two make five, a woman can have sex with a tree and make a baby, which I actually heard in a debate I had with a university professor some years ago.
Anybody who tells you Reality is unreal.
There's no such thing as truth.
There's no such thing as objectivity.
Reason is not universal.
Anybody who attacks universality is attacking one thing within you and one thing only, and that is your conscience.
And how greedily do we grasp at that?
How greedily do we grasp?
At that willing fog of unreality and dive into that foggy nothingness of pretending to be able to erase our own conscience, which we cannot do.
Which we cannot do.
And what happens is people who swallow the jagged nonsense pill of unreality find out,
often too late, that the only real thing left in their entire existence is their inexorable
and implacable conscience.
And when they believed that things were unreal, the only thing that vanished was their ego
and the only thing that remains is their conscience.
Thanks, everyone.
Have a good weekend.
Bye.
Does this make sense? They must get you to believe things that are unreal so you stop believing in your own conscience.
and like water against a cliff, the water shatters and dissipates and the only thing that's left is the cliff.
I wrote in my novel, The God of Atheists, defenses often overwhelm and replace
the personality they were originally designed to protect.
Nineteen times out of twenty, the life of the mind arises from the grave of the heart.
Learning, in other words, is loss.
Shall I keep going if this is helpful?
Thank you.
If you could hold off, if I'm in the middle of a flow, if you could hold off from your questions, just put them in Notepad or whatever when I'm done.
It helps me a little bit to not be distracted.
Just a favor, I'm asking.
It's not a good or bad or right or wrong.
Okay. Why can we not erase our conscience?
Why can't we will our conscience out of existence?
Why can we not dominate our conscience?
We should be able to. I mean we apparently can will just about everything else.
Basic biology, universal morality, facts, math, science.
We can will all of that stuff out of existence.
Why is the conscience unerasable?
It would kill us. Evolution will not allow it.
It's fundamental to being human.
Our conscience are trying to protect us.
No. Absolutely not.
I mean, when you're young, yes, your conscience is trying to protect you.
But you understand, if you make catastrophic moral decisions and you don't make restitution, your conscience makes you miserable as an example to others.
Your conscience is not trying to protect you if you F your conscience.
Your conscience will strip you of joy, of happiness, of peace of mind, of security, of serenity, of sleep, and you wander around miserable as an example to everyone else to listen and plan.
Your conscience is not designed to protect you.
Your conscience is designed to protect humanity.
Do you see what I mean? You know these miserable people, don't you, in your life?
You know these miserable people who've messed everything up, who've become brittle and bitter and aggressive and soul murderous in their own way.
Their conscience is not protecting them.
their conscience is using them to warn you what happens if you don't listen.
Do you know what my mother and my father and other family members were?
They were giant warnings saying, get away.
Do not go down this path.
THIS is the end result.
Your conscience is infinite.
Your conscience is universal.
It is not focused on you.
It is focused on universals.
So, the foundational aspect of humanity is our capacity for universals, for conceptual universals, right?
You throw a frisbee, a dog can catch the frisbee.
It knows where it's going, it knows the balance, it knows the air resistance, it knows the wobble.
So, you throw a frisbee, a dog, but a dog cannot define the trajectory of a frisbee in abstract terms.
Mathematical, universal, conceptual terms.
So the foundation of our morals, to the guy with his mother screaming in his head, I asked, and please listen, please listen, for you to hold off, because I need to track whether people are following, and when I get distracting comments, It's not helpful to me. I promise I will get to it, but
please hold off.
It's a sensitive conversation that we're involved in.
Thank you. I mean, please listen.
When I make a request, you don't have to agree.
But if you could acknowledge it, that would be helpful.
It's kind of polite, right?
If I make a request when I'm providing a service for free, it could be reasonable, right?
Because you understand your mother's voice is in your head because she wants to stop me from what I'm saying, right?
So, what's foundational to us as human beings is our capacity for conceptual universals, And we can only survive, only survive by deploying our capacity for conceptuals, for universals.
I'll just call them universals, right?
So if somebody tells you everything is subjective, they're using objectively defined words to communicate that everything is subjective.
Nothing is true is a universal statement of truth that contradicts itself.
Can we survive if we believe, genuinely believe that nothing is real and nothing is true?
Can we survive if we genuinely believe nothing is real and nothing is true?
No. No.
We can only survive and thrive through universals.
If you believe that water is both beneficial and a poison, can you survive?
If you believe that water does not exist, or food does not exist, or your body does not exist, can you survive?
If you believe that walls don't exist, would you ever try to leave through the door?
door? No, you try to walk through the wall. So we can only survive based on universals.
Now, we could, of course, theoretically say, well, you know, some guy lives alone in the woods.
He doesn't speak to anyone. He's not using...
Okay, fine. But they're not part of society.
They're not part of any of our collective consciousness.
They're just some guy out in the woods.
So we're talking about people who are in reality, moving, transporting themselves, speaking, listening, making arguments.
They're all participating and relying on and surviving and existing only on the absolute...
And truthful nature of universals.
Can we agree on that?
that. If we don't, that's fine. We can take another run at it.
So, I want you to think of your conscience as an organism.
It's an organism subject to all of the same Darwinian requirements and pressures and survival pressures, right?
The conscience is something that wants to survive in you, inform you, and also protect its fellow beasts in your head.
Think of it as an organism.
I know that an analogy is not proof.
I understand that, so just bear with me.
Your conscience wishes to protect itself by informing you, but it also wishes to protect the conscience of other people.
Now, what happens if you attack a creature who is part of a tribe?
What happens if you attack a creature who is part of a group, a tribe, a pack, a pod, whatever?
Yeah, the others attack you.
You raise the ire of the pack.
You are now subject to multiple attacks.
Yeah, you get the whole team against you.
So if you're out there, this is not you guys, but if you're out there in the world attacking universality, which means attacking the conscience, the conscience attacks you back.
The conscience attacks you back.
And not just your own conscience, but the conscience of the world.
the pack, you are surrounded by a giant, beautiful, dangerous, deadly pack of the most insanely
beneficial potential predators that the universe can conceive of, called the collective conscience
of everyone.
You live in a constellation of potential benefits and curses.
Of elevations and degradations.
Of thriving and slaughtering.
You are surrounded by them.
You are wired into them.
It's larger, deeper and wider than any particular individual.
And if you F with the conscience, not just your own conscience will F you back.
But everybody's conscience will.
It's a collective conscience because everyone has access to universals.
No, we don't have access to universals.
We don't have access to universals.
Please understand this.
We are universals.
That's all we are, because even the concept of we is a universal.
Humanity, mammal, virtue, truth, reason, evidence, science, these are all universals.
And it is everything that is universal that defines us specifically as universals.
We live inside of universality.
No. Universality is not separate from us.
We don't live in it, we don't use it, we don't manipulate it, we don't possess it, we don't define it.
We are universals.
We are universals.
This is how you merge individualism with collectivism, right?
Collectivism says that universals are superior to individual instances,
which is not true.
We are universals.
And listen, it just, honestly, I mean, I hate to be like the proof is in the mirror, but you just think this entire conversation is based on universals.
The transmission of this electronic information is all predicated on the science of universals.
Everything that you do in your life is predicated on universals.
The electricity that comes to your house, the power in your car, the radiation in your cell phone, the...
Ingredients on your hair cream.
All of it is predicated on universals.
Everything is delivered that sustains your life is predicated on universals.
And you can't live in the life of the mind without universals.
Hell, you can't even go to sleep without universals.
What do you think your dreams are assembled from?
Why are they coherent? In some fashion, whether you don't understand the meaning, but you certainly know what happened, we can't even sleep without experiencing universals.
We are universal machines.
We are universals. This is why the concept of the soul is so universal.
We are universals.
Saying that I'm a mere atomized individual is like saying only I have a kidney.
We are universals.
Humanity is defined by universals.
You either accept that or you use universals to try to overturn universals.
You follow? Can you explain the conflict between universals and individual instances then?
Sure. Universals describe and conceptualize the common characteristics of individual instances.
So, one tree standing alone in a field...
What was that tree that was just cut down?
That famous tree that was cut down by some teenagers recently.
So, one tree standing alone in a field is not a forest.
Two trees is not a forest.
Three trees... Maybe you get a copse and then eventually you get enough.
You get stretched for a long time.
So... Now, the concept of forest...
Cannot overturn the characteristics of any of the members of that forest.
So the concept forest can't say, well, the concept forest also includes a bouncing rubber ball.
No. Bouncing rubber ball is not part of the conception of the forest.
The forest is a relationship of trees and undergrowth and a particular geographical area and an ecosystem that survives, right?
So the concept of forest can't overturn the characteristics of any individual member of that.
I've always said this, concepts are imperfectly derived from instances.
I know this is kind of technical, but hopefully the analogies make sense.
So if you have a crowd of people, you can say, oh, that's a crowd of people.
Can the crowd of people also include a lamppost or a cobblestone?
No. Because it's a crowd of people.
And so the concept of the crowd can't override any of the individual characteristics of the people because it's derived from the existence of the people.
Does a crowd of people also include a lizard and a mote of dust?
I mean, they could be somewhere in there, but that's not part of the crowd of people.
The crowd of people is human bipeds in a particular aggregation.
So the concept can never, ever override the individual manifestation.
You can't say, well, all mammals are warm-blooded, but I'm going to throw in this tadpole as well.
Because a tadpole is not warm-blooded.
So when you say X group of animals are warm-blooded, every single one of them has to be warm-blooded.
And you can't use the concept derived from the physical characteristics of the instances to override any physical characteristics of the instance.
I mean, if somebody says, I'm going to pay you $1,000, and then they throw in $300 and four bananas, you'd be like, no, no, you said $1,000, that means $1,000.
That doesn't mean anything other than that.
Edward says, I loved your talk in imposter syndrome the other day.
It's completely changed my understanding of it, and it's taken the potency out of it.
Thanks. Just for those who joined later, if you could hold, I appreciate that comment and that tip, but if you could hold off, because we're getting to war here, right?
We're getting to war. Oh, my God.
Why are you people not listening?
Have you read Martin Buber philosophy?
What is he repeating? I'm in the middle of a flow, people, for God's sakes!
Listen! Is this only a one-way conversation?
Is there no input in your minds?
I'm asking you to hold off, and I'm going to have to start kicking people because I've really asked nicely.
I really have asked nicely.
I'm in the middle of a flow trying to explain war, and everyone's like, but I have a thing!
I have a thing! Okay, it's fine if you only just joined, but in general, if somebody's in the middle of a flow, asking you a question is going to interrupt that flow.
No, seriously. If somebody's in the middle of a flow, and I'm in the middle of making a long, lengthy argument, I either completely ignore the comments, which means I might as well just do the show solo, or I'm constantly distracted.
You say, ah, Steph, but you shouldn't be distracted.
No, no, because I'm reading, right?
So it's just a politeness thing.
Let me finish my speech.
And then I will answer your questions.
But what are you guys like?
If somebody's telling a story, do you just keep interrupting them?
And say, you know, I've got a little mole here.
I don't know what that is. I've got a strange twinge in my kidney.
I had a really wild dream.
Will you let people tell their stories?
Will you let people finish their conversation before...
You know, it's kind of intrusive and it's kind of rude, to be honest with you.
And I'm telling you this not because of this philosophy show.
This is just a thing in your whole life.
It's a thing in your whole life. Try not to interrupt people.
And then, of course, you have the right to not be interrupted.
So that's fair as well. Try not to interrupt people.
It's intrusive.
And it's annoying to people who are trying to communicate something.
And so, the people who are good at communicating stuff, you want them in your life, right?
So, they're not going to want to be in your life if you keep interrupting.
Trying to help. So, we are universals.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Now, You can't survive without universals.
And your conscience is the comparison between your words and your deeds.
Your conscience is your comparison between your words and your deeds.
So if your deeds are, I absolutely have to accept and live by universals in order to live.
Which we all do. We have to accept and live by universals in order to survive.
If your conscience notes or sees or understands that you argue against that which you are using to survive, that you are arguing against that which you are using to survive, well, what does your conscience think if you go around telling people Nothing is real, nothing is true, everything is subjective, up is down, black is white, mammals are lizards.
what does your conscience think of you prattling on about how the universals you need to survive
are untrue or false and you are communicating that to others
And not only are you living according to universals, you're communicating according to the universals of language.
So you're using the universals and truth value of language to tell people the universals and truth value don't exist.
Now, what happens evolutionarily speaking if you actually convince other people?
What happens, evolutionarily speaking, if you're such a great sophist that you actually convince other people that nothing is real and nothing is true?
What happens to that tribe?
what happens to that group.
Yeah, they die off.
They absolutely die off.
They're like the guys who are cutting all their balls off to go and join the Halle-Bopp comet, right?
They go extinct, right? So, your conscience is the constant seismographic recording of, are you dangerously full of shite?
Are you like a mind virus that is talking other people out of their means to live?
You understand I'm not talking about history.
This is where we are right now.
This is constant assault on truth, on reality, on reason, on empiricism.
This is not the distant past.
This is the near future and the current present, right?
Gaslighting. I mean, you have it with gaslighting.
If you were abused as a child, you confront your abuse with, oh, it didn't happen.
You don't remember. It was different.
I was under a lot of stress.
Of course, when they abused you as a kid, they didn't say, well, I abused you because I was under a lot of stress.
They say, well, you're a bad kid and you need to be punished, right?
And don't you feel this?
I have always felt this unreality is just constant assault.
Like an endless cloud of tiny death-laden poisonous mosquitoes constantly trying to sting you and infect you.
Like holding fast against a storm like that 19th century painter who wanted to paint a vivid storm so he had himself tied to the mast of a ship during a storm so he could see it with his own eyes.
This constant undoing of everything that is real.
Subversion of reality.
It's demonic. It's demonic.
Father of lies. Satan is the father of lies.
And the atheists of course are living like they will never... isn't this the case?
Satan is... so the Satanists obviously, the hedonists, the atheists, the secularists
are they not living like?
like.
They will never be held to account because they don't believe in St.
Peter, the Book of Life, the pearly gates, the all-seeing, all-moral examination of every moral choice you ever made in this life.
They believe.
They will never be held to account.
Isn't this why, as religion falls, society gets worse and worse?
Oh, thank God!
Thank God God is gone!
Whoo! Is this going to be on the test?
There is no test. There's no marks.
There's no evaluation. So do what you want.
Do what feels good.
Do what you like. They genuinely believe they will never be held to account.
Do you believe that?
I mean, give it a few years.
No, no, no, no. What I'm saying is that you're perpetually held to account.
You're perpetually held to account.
Do you believe that you are held to account morally?
Of course, if you're a Christian, you will believe that.
Definitely, yes.
If you're not Christian, what holds you to account?
If you're not Christian, what holds you to account?
It's not God.
No afterlife.
Your conscience? Right.
Right. Right.
So, your conscience is at peace with you if you promote reason, truth, and objectivity.
If you promote the universals you need to survive, then you're not a mealy-mouthed, fiery-eyed hypocrite seeking to dismantle the survival mechanisms of everyone around you because of murderous rage about your abuse as a child.
To sort of compact it down.
Conscience equals God.
No. No.
No.
Your conscience is the part of you that endlessly examines, transcribes and denotes the contradictions between your words and your deeds.
Now you understand, since we are conceptual beings, anything and everything that we do to attack and undermine concepts and truth is fundamentally destructive to the soul, conscience, life, mind, virtue, and society of everyone around us.
Do the hedonists not feel the collective conscience?
Do the hedonists not feel the collective conscience?
What is the biggest agency of dismantling the conscience in the modern world?
It's not the media. That's just an effect.
What is the biggest agent of dismantling the conscience in the modern world?
Yeah, school system.
Yeah, for sure. No, school has significantly more impact on children than parents do.
So have you ever noticed that children who are skeptical of the authority of their parents generally are kind of nervous of their teachers, right?
So they'll fight back hard with their parents, but they won't fight back hard with their teachers because they have the bond with their parents, but they don't have the bond with the teachers.
And also, when you fight back hard against your parents, you don't have peers who are impatient or mocking you, but if you fight back against your teachers, what do your peers often say?
Oh, just go along, we want to get out to recess.
Well, they fear their teachers more than they fear their parents.
So the teachers are a more effective way of acting against the conscience, right?
When people do wrong, they know they're being hypocrites.
They feel uneasy deep down.
And listen, I've been there too.
I'm far from perfect in this life, right?
I've been there too. For me, it was 18 months, 20 months of insomnia when I was not living my values.
So what do people do to escape their bad conscience?
If you want to know what's going on in the world, what do people do?
Yep, they drink. Absolutely, they drink.
They consume. They buy things.
Absolutely great high in buying things, particularly women.
That's what malls are for. Malls are cathedrals of conscience avoidance.
They drink, they consume.
Thank you for the tip. I appreciate that.
Distraction, yeah. Pornography, video games.
Is a social credit score a substitute for the conscience?
No. A social credit score is a replacement for the ignoring of the conscience.
Yes, sex, drugs, of course.
They attempt to merge into a mindless collective, such as cheering for sports, right?
Smoke a lot of weed, yeah.
They swipe right, yeah, that's right.
They go for status.
They go for power. They go for dopamine.
They travel. Yes, that's right.
They travel. I mean, this woman on Twitter, Pearl Davis, Pearly Things, or something like that.
She's Pearl Davis. I see her occasionally, and she's one of the, God love her, one of the missions she's after is to remind women that they lose their attractiveness, their physical attractiveness fades out as they age.
So she's got this thing where she says, unless you were obese when you were younger,
if you're 35, you're not as attractive as when you were 20.
How this could be a controversial statement is...
Okay, but why do women hate that?
Why do women hate the fact, look, am I as attractive now as when I was 20 or when I was 30 or when I was 40?
I mean, I've lost a little weight over the last sort of 15 years, I don't know, 20, 30 pounds, something like that.
So, you know, a little bit.
It's a losing battle, right?
It's a losing battle, obviously, right?
Why...
Why do women...
Not all, of course, but why do so many women...
Like, it's actually kind of sad, right?
So she says, you're not as attractive at 35 as you were at 20.
And what do these women keep doing?
What do these women keep doing?
What do they keep posting? It's gross.
What do they keep posting under this?
Well, they attack her, of course, right?
Yeah, they keep posting their semi-nude, nippletastic pics of their middle-aged beluga bodies.
Or they'll post a picture of an unattractive 20-year-old and then an attractive 35-year-old and saying, well, the 35-year-old is more attractive than the 20-year-old, but it's a different person, so it doesn't matter.
It doesn't count. Why do women, and it's the same thing happened with me, of course, right?
So why do women, why do so many women hate the reality that they're going to age out of their looks?
Because, I mean, doesn't everybody know this?
I was at brunch the other day with my daughter, and we were talking about this family, a couple of tables over, where it was grandparents and grandchildren, right?
And the grandsons were, I think, in their late teens or early 20s.
And, you know, good-looking boys, you know, shiny hair, beautiful clear skin and all of that.
And, you know, the grandparents were, you know, the grizzled old Mount Rushmore crusty-faced crypt keepers that we all, with any good luck, turn into.
And I was saying, like, isn't it wild that you go from this to this?
That you go from these young, gorgeous specimens to these old, crusty crypt keepers.
If you're lucky, the old, crusty crypt keepers are the ones who've made it.
They're the most successful you can possibly be.
I said, isn't it wild?
Now, I'm on that journey, obviously, right?
Got a little bit of wattle here, and, you know, hair's gone gray, and beard's gone gray, so...
And, you know, when I get up, I make sounds now.
I now come with a soundtrack.
Before, I was a silent movie, and now I'm like...
Just a little sound, a little sound.
That's fine. I mean, I think I'm aging pretty well, but, you know...
It happens. It happens.
I used to heal. Now I have to massage.
Anyway, so why do women hate so much?
The fact. Now, nobody's going to look at an 80-year-old woman and say she's as attractive as a 20-year-old woman.
So everybody, like at the extremes, it's kind of a weird thing in life, right?
People look at these two extremes and they say, well, yes.
That's young, and that's attractive.
80-year-olds, not attractive, but they think, what, it just happens at 79 and a half, just boom, you know, just boom, right?
Kate Beckinsdale looks pretty good at 50.
I had a dream about her.
She's the only woman over 33 I would consider doing it with.
Yes, but you'd have to also absorb all the demon blood she uses to keep young.
I'm just kidding. I don't know much about Kate Beckinsdale.
Okay, so why does she look pretty good at 50?
Why does she look pretty good at 50?
Why does Kate Beckinsdale look pretty good at 50?
What does she look like?
She looks like she's 25 or 30.
Hello! She only looks good because she looks younger.
Yes, and of course, she's got...
I mean, J-Lo has this whole routine of $40,000 facial stimulator or fog thing or whatever, right?
So, I mean, that's their job to look good.
Sofia Vergara, yeah, she's got a great figure, and she's pretty kind of shrill and loud, in my opinion, but she's definitely pretty...
But they only look good because they look younger.
So saying, well, no, you can look good when you're older.
It's like, yes, but they only look good because they look younger.
I mean, how is this even a question?
What do you mean younger women look better?
I look better and older because they look younger.
And it's like, yes, that's accepting that younger...
Like, how do you know a woman looks good in her 50s because she looks 20 years younger?
Oh, a huge industry built around women trying to look younger.
Right. So they're trying to mask the cracked and rotten eggs, right?
They get it. They're trying to mask...
Like, Kate Beckinsale may look great at 50, but she can't give you kids.
Right? She can't give you kids.
Right? Whatever Tutankhamun wax museum creature Madonna's cheekbones have turned into, I mean, she can't give you kids.
She could probably give you a bunch of...
So yeah, women trying to look younger.
So when you say to a woman you're going to age out of your beauty, you're saying there's a second half of your life.
And when you say there's a second half of your life, the conscience is like, Yes!
That's right! There's a second half of your life.
I've been trying to tell her that for 20 years.
She won't listen. Please!
And what happens is the conscience rears up because it's got an outside ally.
Right? It's got an outside ally.
And Lord help you. God help you above.
God help you above. Because Satan won't.
God help you above if you say things that provoke people's bad conscience.
God help you if you say things that provoke people's bad conscience.
Because their conscience erupts and their conscience is trying to help them and rescue them and save them up to a certain point after which it will simply make them absolutely miserable.
Absolutely miserable as an example to others.
I mean, I wrote a whole character based on this theory, right?
which is the character I wrote based on the theory that a bad conscience serves as a warning to others
and it's not designed to save you anymore.
Hell hath no fury like a woman's bad conscience.
No, I think the fury is for both men.
Yeah, men and women. It's Rachel's aunt.
Rachel's aunt is the warning sign of what happens.
Rachel's aunt is the warning sign of what happens when you age out of your looks.
So, that's in my novel, The Present.
You can get it at freedomain.com slash books.
Man, if you haven't listened to my novels, especially because, you know, I'm a trained actor and all, right?
So, you should really go and listen to them.
So, are we growing a beard?
Are you listening to my request?
No, I just haven't gotten around to shaving.
I've been kind of busy. I've been really working hard on peaceful parenting on the book.
I'm about a fifth of the way through the second draft.
It's really wild, you know?
Somebody says, Steph, why do we get angry when we see perfectly healthy couples who choose not to have kids?
That is a great character describing the post-war life for a professional woman without children.
Oh, well, maybe people have joined.
But, you know, again, it's just funny, you know, at some point you just have to kind of give up.
Like you make repeated requests for people not to interrupt your flow.
Okay, so we are concepts.
We are universals. And the conscience is that which says, you lying sack of shite hypocrite, you're arguing against that which you use to survive.
And you're using language which is universal to argue against universals.
You're like a virus.
You're like a huge negative and a danger to the world.
So, why do people want to detach you from your conscience?
Why do people want to detach you from your conscience?
What is the profit in detaching people from their conscience?
To exploit you. Yeah, to control you.
Absolutely. Absolutely. Now, there is a war, of course.
It's been going on as long as there have been people.
There is a war between.
Fearing God and fearing the tribe.
Fearing the authority of virtue and fearing the authority of power.
And if people can uncouple you from your conscience, they can tell you to do just about anything.
and you'll do it.
Does that make sense?
Unreality leads to tyranny.
Because accepting unreality puts you in opposition to your own conscience.
Once you're in opposition to your own conscience, you are easily led by the nose in whatever direction the rulers want you to go.
This is why I have always viewed those who attack reality as it's worse than a physical attack.
You understand? Those who attack your sense of reality, those who undermine your sense of truth, of objectivity, of conceptual accuracy, of the efficacy of your brain in processing and dealing with reality, you understand it's worse than a physical attack.
Because a physical attack is obvious.
You can run away. You can avoid.
You can defend yourself against it.
you can train, but something that attacks and undermines your sense of reality is poisoning
you against yourself and will result in decades of ungodly levels of misery.
To make your conscience your enemy is to turn you into a slave of sophistry.
Bye.
you Anyone who wants to separate you from your conscience is like the creep in the windowless van who is aiming to separate the children from their parents.
To put you in a state of undefendedness, where your sole sense of virtue comes from external cues rather than internal truths.
That you are no longer the vehicle and engine of your own moral judgment, but you rely upon the approval or punishment of external factors, of external stimuli.
Corruption is when you have the incentives of an animal with the soul of God.
Animals don't propagandize each other.
Human beings do. So when they can reduce you from your conscience to a mere response to stimuli.
I mean, would you like an example from the pandemic?
I'm sure that you can follow this through yourself.
So, with the pandemic, they inflicted grievous fear on the population
and then said that the cause of your fear is the unvaccinated, that the unvaccinated are bad people who are spreading this
disease and so on.
None of it made any sense, right?
None of it made any sense at all.
Because if the vaccines worked, then you were protected.
Like, I took, I guess I was given the smallpox vaccine when I was a kid.
I never feared anybody who had smallpox.
So, none of it made even a lick of sense, but because, you know, a hundred plus years of post-modernism and subjectivism had detached people from any basis of common sense, they could be told the most absurd things and believed them.
Like, half of Democrats wanted the unvaccinated put into gulags, and a third of them wanted children taken away from Unvaccinated parents.
None of it made any sense.
You follow, right? So, people weren't sitting there with their own conscience.
Because your own conscience would have you evaluate a moral statement regardless of its source.
That's called objectivity.
Objectivity is, it doesn't matter who's saying it, the question is, is it true or not?
Now when you can get people away from objectivity, away from their conscience, ad hominems become all that run society.
This person is a bad person, therefore you should never listen to anything he or she says.
Right? That's ad hominem, right?
And of course that's madness.
That's madness. Once you can get people to discard the concept of truth, they will never check whether you're lying about someone because there's no such thing as truth.
But they will, so they won't process whether you're lying about someone.
What they will process is you dislike that person enough to slander them, therefore you're dangerous, therefore you might do it to them, and because you shorten the time horizon, by getting rid of the conscience, you shorten the time horizon, and so people are like, well, I'm uncomfortable in the moment, this is bad for me in the moment, so I'm going to just conform.
Without realizing, of course, that that very conformity makes the second half of their life miserable.
They turn you from angels of reason to addicts of approval and punishment.
And the addict of course starts off by pursuing a high and ends up
trying to escape the crash, trying to escape the law.
So does this, we'll get to war in a sec, but does this sort of make sense?
census is useful as a whole?
Okay.
So the first thing that people who want to separate you from your conscience do
is they get you to believe lies by threats and punishment and reward.
right? So if you accept X, Y, Z, you're a good person and we like you and you're popular and we approve of you.
But if you don't or if you reject it, you're a bad person, we will attack you, we will summon the mob to attack you.
And so what happens is you end up navigating approval and disapproval, which gives great power to those in charge, right?
So the first thing they get you to do is accept a lie.
Accepting a lie does not destroy your conscience.
As long as you're honest about why you're accepting the lie.
You understand? We all had to, every single one of us had to accept lies when we were children.
Every single one of us.
Because our culture is largely founded on falsehoods.
That's how you know it's culture, not philosophy, right?
So all of us had to accept lies when we were kids.
And yeah, to keep our jobs, to, you know, whatever, right?
I mean, I have great sympathy for the people who faced poverty if they didn't take the jab.
Now, what is one of the most fundamental lies that we have to accept as children?
Oh, when I say this, you're going to get this, like...
Sunbursts, sunbeams in the head.
What is one of the greatest lies we have to accept as children?
That's not to do with the family.
because families vary in quality yeah that's exactly right
Bye.
School is for education.
Hey, I'm being educated!
No, you're not. No, I wasn't.
Did you believe, when you were a kid, did you believe that you were being educated and there was great value in what you were being taught in school?
Did you? Or did you just like, ugh, I've got to cross these I's, dot these T's, and I've got to regurgitate this crap which I'm going to forget five minutes after the exam.
I've just got to go through these motions.
I've got to stick to this train track.
I've got to pass these hurdles.
I've got to run through this freaking rat's maze in order to get out at the other end.
Listen, some of you do believe, and I'm not saying this is a terrible thing, I'm just, right?
We had no stuff in those times.
But weren't you bored and frustrated and alienated and like what's the point of all of this stuff when I'm ever gonna
use it?
Do you know what percentage of school knowledge is never ever used again over the course of your life?
Do you know what percentage of school knowledge is never ever used again over the course of your life?
It's in the mid to high 90s.
Like 95%, 98%.
It's in the mid to high 90s.
So, if you're not being educated, What is happening?
What is it for? Well, of course, it's for training people to like the existing structure.
It's for indoctrination.
It's for to give jobs to people who are not particularly smart.
Educators as a whole are some of the least intelligent people in universities.
So there's a wide variety of things that it's for.
Certainly not for educating children at all.
So that's like the first line.
Outside of the family and maybe your family is more honest and whatever, right?
Now... Believing the lie, even if you fully accept it, right?
Sometimes it's easier to go along if you believe you're genuinely being educated, right?
Like I sort of think of the, it's a bit of a sort of cliche, but that sort of really earnest maybe Asian student or whatever who's like, I've got to learn this, this is really important, blah, blah, blah, right?
So there's nothing wrong with while you're in the situation of compulsion to accept the lies.
That does not wreck your conscience.
Your conscience is like, hey man, we gotta do this, we have no choice.
Your conscience will not get mad at you for accepting a lie or even believing that lie.
Yeah, you have no autonomy, you have no authority, you have no independence.
I mean, it's sort of like the analogy would be, does a nutritionist get mad at you for what you eat in prison?
No, you just eat whatever sluff they put in front of you Just so does this your conscience you said my conscience
did when I was a kid Well, maybe that was your conscience, maybe that was self-attack, right?
A conscience is not the same as self-attack.
Self-attack generally is when you're programmed to verbally abuse yourself for disobeying those in power,
which is being programmed into kids as young as five years old these days is really
brutal.
So...
So, your conscience will not attack you for what you had to do under compulsion.
So, accepting the lie, believing the lie does not harm your conscience.
It's not great, it's not good.
When does your conscience start to have a problem with you when you're an adult, right?
And generally it doesn't have much...
I don't feel bad for pretty much anything I did as a kid or as a teenager because I was not in a situation of liberty.
The bad conscience is other people's, not mine.
So, when does your conscience start to get mad at you?
Not when you accept the lie, not when you believe the lie.
Yes! Exactly right!
When you spread the lie.
When you tell the lie, when you become a transmitter and a reproducer of the lie, do you have to...
I mean, you have to accept lies as a kid.
Do you have to... And we have to accept lies as adults.
do you have to spread lies as an adult?
I mean the real pandemic was falsehood, right?
That was the real pandemic.
So, when you have a choice and you choose to spread lies, that is when your conscience starts to have a problem with
you.
So all the people who went from, with regards to abortion, my body, my choice, medical decisions should never be
forced, All those people who, you know, obviously rightly were appalled and horrified by the Nazi and Japanese experiments on prisoners of war and on gulag victims in the Second World War, which gave birth to the Geneva Convention and to the The forbidding of any coerced or incentivized medical treatments.
All the people and then they just completely flipped and reversed.
Now that's that's when your conscience has a problem with you.
Right? When you become a bad guy and you call the good guys bad guys and you don't have to.
Now that's When your conscience has a problem with you.
It's not being subject to lies, not even believing lies.
it's when you reproduce them now
the reason you.
you That there is war is because people spread lies.
And we don't have to get into the details.
I did a lot of this work in the past.
You can go and look for it at fdrpodcast.com.
People spread lies.
When people spread lies, they participate in immorality, which means that their conscience becomes their enemy.
Now, the people who are bad are the most susceptible to being called bad.
It's a really, really important thing to understand in society and human nature.
The people who are actually immoral are the ones most sensitive to being judged as immoral.
I mean, have I ever been called immoral and bad?
Of course. I mean, relentlessly, repeatedly in public and so on.
And still, right? But it doesn't hit me hard because my conscience is what I navigate by.
I mean, if you desperately have to head north and you have a functioning compass and everyone's saying you're going the wrong way but your compass says you're going north...
I mean, it may sort of be mildly annoying that people are telling you you're going the wrong way, but you've got the compass.
And when you've got the compass, it doesn't matter what the crowd says.
It's not completely irrelevant.
The crowd can be dangerous, and I get all of that.
But you know which way is north.
You know which way is north.
You know what is good. You know what is right.
right you know what is true you know what is moral but
if you have not just believed not just accepted
but transmitted and escalated the lies in society you have a bad conscience
Now, if you have a bad conscience and someone calls you bad, you will change course, change direction instantly.
And it doesn't matter! The consistency.
The consistency doesn't matter because what you're trying to do is you're trying to avoid your own conscience.
You're being hunted. Now, if you just saw a digitally edited video of a rabbit just running like crazy, like mad, different directions, up, down, leaping into the air, reversing, you'd say, and it was just a rabbit.
In a field, just going nuts.
You'd say, my God, this is having some sort of epileptic attack.
It's like, why is it going in all these random different directions?
And don't you see this? People just overturn their prior perceptions.
They lie. They just change stories.
They gaslight. And there's no consistency between anything they said in the past and anything they say now.
Right? You can see this all the time.
Now, that's because you don't see the predator that they're running from.
Now, when you watch that rabbit jumping all over the place in the field, and then you see the original footage, which is that a wolf is chasing the rabbit, now you understand.
Now you understand.
Now you understand why they change their direction all the time.
Why do people change their stories all the time?
because they're being hunted by their own bad conscience.
Now, if you could reason with the rabbit and you say, listen,
just if you want to get some, I'd just go in a straight line.
What's all this changing direction?
Just go in a straight line. And the rabbit was being chased by a wolf, and you just said, man, just go in a straight line.
What would the rabbit say to you back?
You're just going to get me killed.
you're just gonna get me killed people who change their stories and their morals and their
narrative and their perspective and their arguments
are being chased by a predator that I'm trying to get you to see
.
And if you say, be consistent, you're saying, submit to the predator.
Be caught.
Be snapped up, be chewed up, be ripped apart, be disemboweled.
Be consistent means let your conscience catch you.
Do you see how little people listen?
No matter how many times I ask people to let me flow, I mean, it just means that I'm going to have to maybe stop doing this as live streams.
Like, honestly, I don't mean to be like...
But, I mean, if...
Because I can do the flow without...
I like having the comments.
They help. But if the comments are constantly distracting, I'll have to do this not in a live stream format.
Just so you know. It's selfish, right?
Well, I have a perspective. I want to talk about something else.
So, war happens because people spread lies.
When people spread lies, they're easy to control, because all you have to do is call them bad, which provokes their bad conscience, and they'll do anything to avoid their bad conscience, so they just conform to whatever you say, because they can use your approval as ammo against their bad conscience.
Isn't this what people do?
I can use social approval as an ally against my bad conscience.
And so when you say to women, your looks are going to run out, hello, your looks are going
to run out, you're going to get ugly.
you We all do. What you're saying to women is you're going to run out of thirst approval, you're going to run out of people desiring you, and then you'll be left alone with your bad conscience, hanging in space forever and ever.
Amen. That you will now have to go into battle against an infinite force that can rake you over the coals forever with no allies anymore.
you will have no social approval to ally against your bad conscience.
And people fear almost nothing more than being left alone without allies,
facing down the endless devils of their bad conscience.
The End you
Yeah, you will know when the flow is over when I ask for other questions.
I told you I'd tell everyone I would get to the questions.
Just be patient. It's just a matter of trust, right?
I think I've earned it. I think I've earned trust.
I mean, I remember the days of my bad conscience where I was like, you know, I think I'm full of shite.
I think I just talk about morals.
I don't think I actually live them.
I don't think I have them as a requirement to be in my life.
I don't think I have them as a basis for romance or love.
I don't think I have them as a basis within my career.
I mean, man, I face some real corruption in the business world.
Oof. I mean, to my sort of minor credit, the moment I could get to a place where I could live with more integrity, I took it.
But the disconnect between...
My words and my deeds had grown so wide that I either had to abandon philosophy, which would be unthinkable, literally unthinkable, would be unthinkingly unthinkable, or I had to live my words, right?
You either have to abandon your words, your ideals, or you have to start living them.
That's the crisis of conscience.
for me it hit a little earlier than middle age but that's because I started philosophy earlier
than most in my mid-teens I mean, just to touch on politics very briefly
because in the new administration there are multiple wars the abandonment of tens or more of billions of dollars
worth of weaponry massive transfer of assets to primitive theocracies, And it's...
Was there... I mean, Trump...
God, Lord knows. Trump has his faults.
Was there war under Trump?
Not really.
Thank you.
Namaste.
We bombed a couple of airfields in Syria, but that's about it.
And was Middle Eastern terrorism largely dealt with?
Yeah. I mean, he didn't do the mass slaughter approach.
Obviously, he did the very surgical strikes on the leaders.
And yeah, so because they...
Well, we don't have to get into all of that.
So why are the wars back?
back because people participated in and spread lies.
That's why there's war.
They participated in spread lies about Trump, about war, about people like me,
the truth tellers and the reasoners and the negotiators.
you they participated and spread these lies
and as a result of participating in spreading lies we have war
so I know that that's a long explanation Thank you.
Bye.
you But people without a conscience can only navigate by, or people separated from their conscience or afraid of their conscience can only navigate by reward and punishment.
So, I'm telling you, be wary of people who tell you there's no such thing as truth, objectivity, reality, reason is subjective, nothing is real.
They are trying to separate you from your conscience.
I thank God that you were banned.
You increased much more your quality as a content creator after being banned.
I had my time in the world, and I don't regret it.
I don't regret it.
At all. But it was time to be in the world and now it's time to be in morality.
Alright, so I did say this is a reasonable answer.
Does this sort of make sense to you? Should we get to your questions now?
And I appreciate your patience. What separates a friend from a romantic partner?
My sister was telling me that she meets guys that have a lot in common with her and good chemistry.
She sees them more as a friend rather than a romantic partner.
Okay. I'll always ask, because I always want to know, how dark do we go?
How dark do we go? Do you want to know what chemistry is for most people?
One to ten, how dark do we go?
Under the bed, Doc. Mommy, Mommy, can I sleep with you?
I think there are monsters under my bed.
No, they could follow you to my bed.
All right, all right. So chemistry for women almost always means he's not going to harm me enough.
He's too trustworthy.
He's too reasonable. He's too nice.
He's not going to break my heart.
Chemistry is masochism, thinly disguised as attraction.
Because we all know what does it mean to have chemistry.
It means he's dangerous.
He's a bad boy. He's got a bad history.
He's going to F me up.
That's what chemistry is. Chemistry is self-punishment for vanity and falsehood and conformity.
Chemistry is when he, the bad boy, allies with your conscience to punish you for your misdeeds.
Because what do the women always say about the nice guys?
The guys who are reasonable, who are considerate, who are thoughtful, who are empathetic, who are good guys.
what do they always say? Oh, there's no chemistry.
Women are attracted to men who ignore them.
Oh, man. Yes, let's take entirely dysfunctional women and describe all women that way.
It's so funny, you know, when you, I mean, I love two females in my life as passionately as can be imagined.
I have, of course, a wife of 20 plus years.
I have a daughter who's going to be turning 15 in a couple of months.
And so when people talk about women be cray-cray, it's like, I mean, I take it personally, obviously, right?
Autumn says, I married a nice guy, best decision I ever made, right?
No chemistry means I don't deserve virtue and I'm going to be punished by immorality.
That's what no...
The friend zone is where you put guys who aren't going to punish you for your bad conscience.
Because that's the only thing that explains a consistent pattern that women only claim chemistry with men who are destructive to them.
Do you have any thoughts on the disappearance of J.F. Gary Eppie's ex-Gurkfried?
What is that? Do you have any stroke?
Gurkfried, but a girlfriend, Mama J.F.? Yeah, I heard a little bit about this.
I heard a little bit about this.
So his...
It's not his wife, right?
He had some girlfriend.
Did he rescue her from the streets or something like that?
And he says that she's...
Gone off the grid or something since June or something like that?
What thoughts could I possibly have on such a messed up situation?
I don't know. Do you have any thoughts on Martin Buber's philosophy?
I wouldn't say that I understand his philosophy well enough to have any particular thoughts on it.
Is it true that women want those terrible men to, quote, get back at their parents?
Oh, the breakfast club thesis that, oh, if there's ever a guy you wanted, that's going
to annoy your parents.
Bad men are usually a punishment for vanity.
.
So if a woman focuses solely on her looks or status and being attractive physically and all of that sort of stuff, then that's vanity.
It's trying to gain personal value out of the accidental and unearned.
And so... Your conscience won't reward you for vice.
Obviously, that's what makes it a conscience, right?
And greedily taking men's hormones and the evolution of physical attractiveness, not as the foundation for building a family, but for your own personal monetary gain and vanity, is going to end up with, I mean, we all know this, come on.
How often do the most attractive women end up with the worst guys, right?
Come on. Amaranth or whatever her name is.
Like, how often do the most attractive women end up with the worst guys?
then this is why. It's very often.
Are you concerned about Canada's new legislation regarding independent
podcasters?
Thanks.
No, not particularly.
What was it, Joe Rogan? I saw a clip of Joe Rogan, you know, saying, oh, it's just terrible what's happening to freedoms in Canada.
It's like, well, you've really helped to discredit one of the major freedom fighters in Canada, so he doesn't see it.
He doesn't see it. I mean, you tell the truth until you can't tell the truth, right?
I mean, that's been the goal of philosophers throughout history, to tell the truth.
And the more effective you are at telling the truth, the more you're going to get attacked and punished, and so you just try and get as much out as you can.
Let's see here. What was the other thing I was going to talk about?
Yeah, yeah Women. Yeah.
So... As you know, what is it, a quarter of a trillion dollars added to America's debt in like a week or two or something like that.
It's gone through the roof, right?
So we are in the land of currency devaluation and this and that and the other.
And, you know, the economics of it we all understand.
It's kind of boring. But let me ask you this.
Let me ask you this. As a single man, when the government can no longer provide as many benefits to women, you will go up in their evaluation.
You will become more important.
They will run from the government and they will try to woo you.
What is your reaction going to be when your sexual market value goes through the roof because the value of government currency is going into the toilet?
What happens when You suddenly become, hey, how you doing?
You know, hey, we talked a couple of...
Like, there's this old meme about this woman, like a message from 2013.
Like, I'm breaking up with you because you just keep obsessing about this Bitcoin and you don't have a future and I need a guy who's more stable.
Right? And she just breaks up with him.
And then, you know, 2021, she's like, hey, how you doing?
So what are you going to do when you become massively valued?
What are you going to do when the women contact you?
What are you going to do? And again, what are you going to do when you become Oliver?
Steph is a guy who's already had lots of money.
It never helped me with women. You're going to let them chase you?
When women are chasing you, demand proof principles and therapy receipts.
Yeah, yeah. Gross.
And yet, it's a big question, right?
Do you let old resentments rob you of a future family?
And that's a provocative way to put it.
It's not the only thing, but it's a possibility, right?
Are you going to let old resentments?
Because look, there are a lot of guys out there who are rejected by women because, what is the old saying?
Women will chase the top 10% of guys.
That's all they'll do. 90% of guys are invisible.
And if you get the top 10% of guys in an airplane hangar, they'll just chase the top 10% of those guys and ignore the bottom 90% of the top 10%.
So they go for 1% and so on and so on, right?
So, for the men who've been rejected and ignored, and the women have chased the bad boys, and the women have traveled on very little money, which means hopscotch-ing from wiener to wiener.
So, when the women come back, and in humility, and in need, and obviously to some degree in desperation, say, I need a provider and a protector, and I'm sorry that I rejected you in the past, what's going to happen?
What are you going to do? Because, I mean, I get both sides of the equation.
I absolutely get both sides of the equation.
One of which is like, you know, to heck with you.
You didn't want me.
You married the state.
Now the state can't provide to you.
And I don't care.
I'm pushing back.
you know, it's nothing real, nothing organic, nothing like that, right?
There's a certain vengeful, Old Testament, punitive, Thor's hammer
feeling about that, isn't there?
Like I can really get into that mindset.
The woman who rejected me, I will reject, but I will enjoy the attention from new women.
Yes, but you can only do that because you're ignoring all the men they've rejected who aren't you, right?
Yeah, the eye for an eye sort of thing.
You rejected me when you didn't need me.
I'm going to reject you because you're blatantly hypocritical and you're only coming to me because the government can't pay your bills or whatever.
Yeah, you get what you deserve!
Yeah, yeah. You reap what you sow!
Beg away! Ladies, I'm above it all.
I mean, I really do get that mindset.
And, of course, there is no small risk involved, which is...
Oh, okay, so you need resources from someone.
You're not getting it from the state, so you're going to come and get it from me.
and what happens if the government resurrects its finances or if you find
some other sugar daddy right so or do you say well they're human
They made bad decisions.
I, in a similar situation, would probably make similarly bad decisions.
They recognize the error of their ways, and we shouldn't punish people for the corruption of the state, which corrupted them, which corrupts just about everyone.
right? if the state wasn't a corrupting force, right? we'd have a whole different
viewpoint from here, right?
I understand that it's kinda gross I get the grossness. I kind of get that it's kind of gross.
Like, oh, now I'm a value.
Now I matter. I mean, because there is that sort of feeling.
What is it from the movie Forrest Gump?
Robin Wright played this woman, Jenny, or something like that.
She was very pretty and very abused as a kid.
There's a sign that says, now I'm a single mom with AIDS. I want you, Forrest Gump.
If she's honest about her past choices and mistakes and can reasonably recover from them, I'm open to seeing if she has the capacity for lived philosophy and if we could potentially have a relationship.
If a single woman rejects you, doesn't that mean that they think your genetics aren't worth reproducing?
How can you forgive that? I mean, we also do have the significant problem that we have massive overexposure to beauty in society.
Like a massive overexposure to beauty in society.
I mean, everywhere you look, billboards, ads, YouTube, everywhere you look, there's just these very pretty or handsome or beautiful people everywhere.
And you understand that this programs us To view every reasonable assessment as an unholy compromise, as settling, right?
Like we are irradiated by constant beauty and what that does is it moves our needle.
Right? So normally, the only people who would be around, like, who would be around beautiful women in the past?
Like, let's look at this, right?
What is this all overexposure?
What is this telling us? What is this programming us for, right?
So, who would be the men around beautiful women in the past?
Kings, emperors, those who ran harems, rich, powerful men, the top men would be around beautiful women.
So what happens is if your body, your base lizard brain is constantly thinking that you're around beautiful women, it thinks that you're massively higher status than you are.
Does that make sense? Because seeing a lot of beautiful women programs you to believe that you're very high status.
And it's the same thing with women who are constantly daydreaming or being exposed to super handsome, super successful men.
They think that they're higher status than they are.
And so, I thought the other day it would be very interesting to create an app where you take a selfie And it tells you the physical quality of man you can attract, and vice versa, right?
Because you know, you know that people of similar levels of attractiveness always end up married to each other.
Like, if you want to know how attractive you are, just look at your partner.
It's pretty much going to be that.
There's a few exceptions, but for the most part, right?
And so it'd be interesting, and what you would do is you would have an app where people had selfies, and then people would rate, you know, one to ten how attractive they are, and then you'd take your selfie, and then it would evaluate that, either based upon some algorithm or based upon a bunch of votes, and then it would say, oh, you're a seven, here's a female seven.
Oh, you're a four, he's a female four.
Oh, you're an eight, here's a male eight.
So that you would try to...
Oh, that app exists? Oh, okay, cool.
So it would be interesting because it's about just having more reasonable expectations of who you can be with.
Because, you know, the women who are kind of holding out for the super hottie guys or whatever, right?
It's... No, it's about trying to get people to be reasonable about their expectations.
Yeah, we all want to chase high, and we should, but then we have to settle for what we can get.
And, of course, we're always told, yeah, the issue is that a woman who is at five can hook up with a man who's eight.
Yes, yes, for sure, for sure.
But only by subsidizing the sex, right?
So this is one of the reasons why you had to keep sex within the confines of marriage.
Because that way a woman couldn't get a more attractive man with sex subsidies, right?
With the subsidies of sex. Or in other words, if the first woman you had to have sex with you had to marry, you would choose someone appropriate to your level, right?
The seven won't marry the five.
Yes, that's entirely true.
The seven will not marry the five.
For me, my wife is a 10 and will always be a 10.
Yeah, I mean that's what people say, but I don't, I mean...
Amen.
you We're talking about external physical looks.
Yeah, we're talking about external physical looks.
You program yourself with all of this beauty and then average looking people look like trolls to you, right?
That's the thing on Seinfeld, like 90% of people are unattractive.
If you've been down to the DMV, it's like a zombie convention, right?
Your wife is a 10 and will always be a 10.
I mean, I obviously find my wife very attractive, but she's not a model.
She finds me very attractive.
I'm not a model. Yeah, this programming stuff is really bad.
You have to limit your exposure to beauty because it reprograms you to believe that you're higher status in terms of looks than you are.
What's your definition of responsibility, being responsible?
I sometimes have this philosophical amnesia.
I feel like people from my history want me to forget what responsibility means.
I get this intellectual blackout once in a while.
No, you don't. No, that's not even close to what's happening.
When things happen that are harmful to you, they're always in the service of bad people.
When things happen, or people with opposite moral values, let's say.
So, yes, of course, people want to do bad things and then they want to claim that they either didn't happen or they weren't responsible, right?
Darva. It's called Darva.
So, this is projection or gaslighting.
It's called Darva. You deny, you accuse, and then you reverse victim and attacker.
There's Darva, right? You deny, you accuse, or you deny, you attack, and then you reverse victim and attacker, right?
So when you do bad things, you know that you deny it, and then you say you were the victim, and you attack, right?
Deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender.
Thank you. Appreciate that. Yeah, Darva.
Darva. Sorry, Darva. So that's an important thing to remember.
So, people who aren't responsible are in institutions, right?
People who aren't responsible tend to be in institutions.
If you're out there in the world, then you're responsible.
So why would people want you to deny their responsibility?
Because responsibility, self-accountability, arms the conscience, right?
So why would people want to pretend that they're not accountable?
Because the conscience won't attack you for something that you're not responsible for.
Your conscience is very precise, and it's not mean.
It's very helpful. So if you're under compulsion, this is why I said when you're a kid in school, if you believe lies, that's perfectly acceptable to your conscience, because you're not in a state of voluntary choice.
So when people say, I'm not responsible, then what they're trying to do is they're trying to tell their conscience that To lay off and to ease up because they weren't responsible.
So it's not about you.
I mean, 99% of what people talk about is about themselves and trying to manage some own nonsense within their own heads.
It has nothing to do with you.
I mean, we saw this with the number of people who kept trying to distract the conversation when I'd repeatedly asked them not to.
Oh, I have an impulse, right?
So, yeah, people claim a lack of responsibility.
They're not talking to you.
They're talking to their own conscience.
Hey man, lay off! I didn't have any choice.
But the problem, of course, is that, like, let's look at parents, right?
So parents attack their children for their children being, quote, bad, which means that they're giving full moral responsibility to their children.
And if later they say, well, I wasn't morally responsible for attacking you, the conscience is like, don't try that.
Don't even try. Don't even try.
Don't even try. I mean, you can't attack children for their moral responsibility while denying you have any moral responsibility for attacking your children.
Like, that's, don't even try, right?
Don't even try. Yeah, so most of the time when people are attacking you, they're attacking their own conscience.
There's nothing to do with you. This is why attacks on me, it's like I don't take it personally.
It's not about me. What I have said has provoked something in their conscience.
And... I mean, do you want to know why women so often get mad when you point out...
I mean, we talked about this a little bit, and I'll sort of close off on here.
I have another topic, but it's been a long show so far.
So... When you remind women that they're going to age out of their looks, one of the reasons they get so angry is because they rejected a good guy and they can't get him back because they're aging out, right? So for men, it's called the one who got away, right?
The woman who got away. The woman you wanted to talk to, you never quite did.
The woman you wanted to declare yourself to and say you were attractive, but you never quite did.
It's the one who got away. And that's tough for men, for sure.
It's tough for women, too. But at least men are gaining in attractiveness as they age, right?
I mean, assuming you stay relatively healthy, right?
Now your ability to provide is proven and who you are.
The woman doesn't have to roll the dice and hope you'll make money because by the time you're 35, hopefully you're making some coin.
And so the woman doesn't have to guess that anymore.
So the man is going to gain in value, so his choice tends to expand.
But for women, if they're losing in value, it means that the best guy is in their past.
And they're now going to have to settle for the guy they can get with their fading looks.
Does that make sense?
The good guys are taken, and they're aging out of their physical attractiveness.
So the best guy is the guy they already rejected.
The best guy is the guy when they were 22 who was devoted to them, but they just didn't feel that spark, or they wanted to travel or go to university and study nonsense, right?
So for women, when you say you're aging out, they're like...
I rejected the guy who was the best guy I could get.
I rejected him ten years ago.
And my best future is a lost past.
My best future is a rejected past.
Does that make sense? I'm sure if I'm being particularly clear here.
So the best guy you could get was when you were 22.
Now you're 35. So you're going to have to settle for a guy who's way less good than the guy you could have got at 22.
A woman deleted me from Snapchat at age 28 when she was 20, so I don't necessarily believe women are attracted to older men.
Oh, Gerard, please.
Something happened to me, so all general principles are null and void.
you Maybe they're not particularly attracted to that mildly narcissistic attitude.
One woman deleted me from Snapchat, and I'm older, therefore women aren't attracted to older men.
Come on, man.
Come on.
You understand this is a show about general principles and philosophy.
So your personal anecdote, I don't even know what to say.
I don't even know what to say.
Sorry, I don't mean to laugh.
Maybe you kept trying to change the subject if you got an idea.
Yes, it's nothing to do with my lack of attractiveness or anything like that.
Sorry, I don't have time to go into specific details.
Ah, yes, the passive aggression.
Shout out to Steve. He turned me onto this thought-provoking stream.
No, can you imagine?
Imagine as a man, like if you want to understand this as a man, imagine this as a man, that you got offered a job, you got offered a job that paid half a million dollars a year when you were 22, and you rejected it.
And then every job offer you got after that was less and less and less, but you just thought it was going to turn around.
And then some bald a-hole comes along and says, the only thing you have to look forward to is minimum wage.
The only thing you have to look forward to is minimum wage, man.
I'm sorry, you could have been really wealthy, right?
You could have been super wealthy for the rest of your life, But instead, all you have to look forward to is customers yelling at you and minimum wage.
You could have been a movie star.
You could have been a contender.
You could have been somebody.
You could have been a movie star and all you get to do is clean the sticky shine off the
floor of the movie theater for the rest of your life.
What is your life going to be like if you believe that you're going to be like, hey
man somebody offered me a half a million dollars when I was 22 a year but I'm going to get
a million dollars when I'm 40.
I'm going to get a million dollars when I'm 40.
And they're like, no, at 40, you'll be lucky to get minimum wage.
Like, that's it. Well, I know a woman who won the lottery when she was 40.
Do you know how much regret women have about the good guys they rejected?
Like it's a foundational physics of the world.
The amount of regret deep down...
The amount of regret they have deep down about the good guys they rejected when they were young is incredible.
If you don't see that in society, if you don't see that motivating...
What happens to a lot of women?
Some women still manage to have fun in their 20s and marry a decent guy before they hit the wall.
See, you think you're talking to me, but you're not.
You got triggered by something and so you're putting in imaginary anecdotes in the face of general principles.
Some years ago, I received a message from a woman who rejected me when we were teenagers.
She was interested in getting in touch, but I was about to get married.
Ouch. She was, quote, happy for me.
Yeah. She was happy for you, and then she cried into a wine glass for four days straight.
I know a woman, she became a wife.
These are the very words she uses to describe her life.
She said a good day ain't got no rain.
She said, a bad day's when I lie in bed and think of things that might have been.
Slip sliding away.
Slip sliding away.
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away.
It's a brutal song about regret, man.
It is a brutal song.
Paul Simon and the slow slide into infinite depression like Yin and Yang.
Everyone, consider tipping if not subscribing to make this show.
Make movies and documentaries.
Ooh, wouldn't that be great? I'd love to get back out on the road now.
It looks like it might be more possible.
Might be more possible to get out there and work on documentaries.
The women who message me on dating apps are mid-thirties plus and or single moms.
Yeah. Yes, indeed.
Yes, indeed. Sure.
Sure.
You slept with the wrong guy, and you're stuck with it forever.
Regret is one of the most corrupting forces in the world.
Because when you have regret, you have one of two choices.
You can either go out and instruct people on everything that you did to end up with such regret or You reproduce your regret circumstances in others because misery loves company.
Are you making the argument for us to forgive these women?
Which women? The women who chose the wrong guy?
See, again, you're not talking to me.
You're not talking to me because I haven't said anything about that.
Causality is not... Thank you for the tip.
If anybody wants a tip just at the end here, I'd hugely appreciate it.
Of course, if you're listening to this later, freedomain.com slash donate.
I would really, really appreciate your show.
A bit of a lean month so far, but do you accept tips as restitution?
Sorry for interrupting you earlier. I would greatly miss the Sunday live streams if you stopped.
Well, I appreciate that. I appreciate that.
That's a start. And just, you know, find ways to not do it again.
And again, I promise I will get to your questions.
Listen, if there is any question I didn't get to, I made a note here of one particular question.
But if there's any question I didn't get to, please let me know.
And if it's a really long, complicated one, I promise I will get to you in the next day or two.
So if there's a question that I didn't get to you, Then I would appreciate that because I want to keep my word.
Obviously, I want to keep my word about getting to the questions after asking for deferrals.
Cheers, Steph! I've been enjoying your content since joining.
I appreciate that. Thank you, Jack.
Are you, uh, I guess interested in more movie reviews?
I watched Breakfast Club again and Good Will Hunting for the first time, I think, since it came out.
Interesting movies. Steph, your content rocks!
Much thanks. Actually, that was Paul Simon, but maybe I can do Pour Some Sugar on me in a topless, well-greased leotard, Freddie Mercury style, with chest hair wig.
Pour Some Philosophy on me.
Watched Breakfast Club last night.
Good movie. Yeah, definitely a little bit hostile to the family as a whole.
You love your movie reviews?
Okay. I'll think about that.
Good Will Hunting is one of my favorites.
I'd love to hear your review of the film.
Jared, could you just check, did I ever do a review of that?
I mean, it's been out since the 90s.
Thank you. Alright, so it looks like I got every question.
Every question. Films are really good for analysis.
Incredible show. Thank you, Tim.
I appreciate that. I really do.
I appreciate that.
See, people would rather go mad or die than confront an unrelenting bad conscience.
Your conscience will constantly measure up whether you can make restitution.
Once you're beyond restitution, your conscience will turn toxic, make your life miserable so that you serve as a warning to others.
People like that are beyond reason.
And they will do almost anything to avoid.
Like the people who lied in the past and those lies have led to the war, do you know how desperate they are for people to not make that connection?
You know, literally people are 10 seconds away from a connection that will turn their life into a conscious hell, from an unconscious hell to a conscious hell.
And the truth tellers, the people with a good conscience must always be censored by those with a bad conscience because the people with a good conscience will make the connections that turn the people with bad conscience their life into hell.
So we have to be silenced because they didn't listen to their conscience and they can't now because it's turned toxic or cancerous.
The censorship of me is the censorship of their own bad conscience.
Do you follow? Because I will ally with their bad conscience.
And I would try to turn them better.
Maybe they're beyond hope.
I don't know. Sometimes you are.
So censorship is not censorship of me.
Even that I didn't take personally.
They're trying to de-platform their own regrets, their own bad conscience.
And they're concerned because their bad conscience senses me as an objective ally and begins to strengthen and rise within them, right?
The bad conscience hears me or people like me begins to strengthen and rise within them.
And they rail against that.
They have to silence me.
Because I am allying with their conscience.
You can just do hunting in FDR podcasts.
I don't know if they've all been categorized as movie reviews.
Just do a search for hunting. See if I talked about goodwill hunting.
So... And they think...
This is the thing, right? So they think that by silencing me, they triumph over their bad conscience.
But all they do is make their bad conscience unrecoverable.
Because by silencing me, they reduce my capacity to ally with people's conscience to save them from this fate worse than death.
Having a bad conscience is a fate worse than death.
So... They think that they're retaining something positive about themselves by deplatforming me, which is deplatforming their own conscience.
But it makes...
It makes their...
Recovery impossible, because now they have participated in lies and spread lies to the point where other people have not been saved.
And once you participate in the damnation of others by keeping people, by keeping moralists away from reinforcing and strengthening their conscience, once you've participated in the moral destruction of others, you're unrecoverable.
Steph, I met over 10 out of 10 women at the nightclub back in January.
She gave me a fake phone number. I recently found her TikTok account by miraculous coincidence.
I'm not 100% sure.
She intentionally gave me a fake phone number, so if I messaged her on TikTok, what should I say?
She was wearing extremely revealing clothing when I met her.
She was wearing nothing but a bra, basically, and a skirt, and she posts super hot bikini photos and sensual dancing all over her Facebook and TikTok.
Come on. Come on.
Come on. Come on.
The only thing that is of value is her physique.
So this is just the sin of lust.
The only thing you find attractive about her is her skin.
What are you, a cannibal?
You don't eat people, you don't consume their flesh.
So, no.
No, she gave you a fake phone number because...
You don't think a woman knows her own phone number?
Come on, she gave you a fake phone number to push you up.
So... She's the only woman I've asked out who gave me a compliment.
Yeah, well, don't be desperate, man.
Don't be desperate. And don't...
So, why do you judge a woman by her looks?
Because she doesn't want to... You don't want her to judge you for your virtues, right?
So, why do you judge a woman by her looks?
Because you don't want her to judge you by your virtues.
So, you keep it skin deep so that she doesn't go...
For the soul.
And a woman who's addicted to social media attention is a dangerous addict who will never be able to provide a stable relationship for you.
Just straight-up facts.
Straight-up facts. You've got to stay away from women who are posting half-nude bikini shots on TikTok and Instagram.
It's madness. I mean, you're basically joining a simp harem.
That's all you're trying to do.
And any time she's upset about anything, she'll run to the internet for dopamine and reinforcements, which means she can't ever change or grow.
I said, I like your outfit.
She replied, I like yours too.
She went to the bathroom but never returned.
Yeah, so she's hiding from you. All right, thank you everyone so much for a great show.
And a great chat.
Freedomain.com forward slash donate if you would like to help out the show.
I would really, really, really appreciate it.
It is important for reasons I'll get to over time.
All will be revealed.
But yeah, it is kind of important at the moment.
So freedomain.com forward slash donate.
Thank you so much. Have yourselves a gorgeous, beautiful evening.
And I appreciate, listen, I even appreciate those who interrupted me.
It gave me the chance to be assertive without being mean.
So thank you everyone so much.
Have yourselves a wonderful day. Lots of love.
