Time Text
Good evening, everybody.
28th of August, 2024.
Yeah, it's gonna be a crackerjack of a show tonight.
I am pumped, baby, and I am ready to rock and roll and baby stroll.
So, hello, hello.
Good evening.
Yeah, we can do some callers if you feel.
If you feel that way inclined, we can certainly chat.
But we've got some spicy, dicey questions.
Here we go.
Dear Steph, I'm a shrink, and I'm truly good at my job.
I get lots of positive feedback from clients.
I've changed lives, says the listener, saved lives, marriages, etc.
However, in my personal life, I'm lonely, depressed, drink way too much.
How is this possible?
Total jackal and hide.
I really do nail my job, but I'm deeply depressed.
Trying to improve but childhood divorce etc not easy.
How can I be this fucked up but also really good at helping anyone but myself?
Donation coming of course.
Well I appreciate that.
Of course!
He said running out of air.
Freedomain.com slash donate and I will tell you why you can be both fucked up and super good at helping other people.
It's because you kept your parents' sanity going when you were a child at the expense of your own mental health.
Your parents were going insane.
You reeled them back from the edge on a regular basis at the great expense of your own mental health.
Tell me!
Tell me!
If this is not the case, then I would be happy to revise My perspective and opinions based upon the empirical facts of your sweet typey phrases, but that's what I would assume.
You are used to keeping other people's sanity going at the great expense of your own.
All right.
Hi, Steph.
I'm 25 and looking to get married and start a family.
Congratulations!
At the same time, I'm worried by the prospect of spending the last 40 plus years of my life in an exclusive relationship with a post-war woman I'm no longer sexually attracted to.
What are your thoughts?
Right.
I think I understand the question.
Is your question you're going to get married to someone your own age and then from like 40 to 80 in an exclusive relationship with a post-war woman I'm no longer sexually attracted to?
Why on God's green acre would you not continue to be sexually attracted to your post-war wife?
I mean, women?
My wife is in her mid-late 50s.
I posted a picture of her the other day.
She looks fantastic.
Honestly, it's kind of eerie.
It's kind of eerie.
So, if you love your partner, if your partner loves you, they will not let their looks go to shit.
They just won't.
Because when you're in possession of monopoly privilege, you can do one of two things in this life.
You're in possession of monopoly privilege, monogamous relationships, parenting.
It's never going to happen with government, but monogamous relationships and parenting.
You are in possession of monopoly privilege.
You are the only parent to your children and you're the only sexual partner to your wife and or husband.
So when you're in possession of monopoly privilege, what do you do?
Well, I'm in somewhat position of monopoly privilege because I'm trying to monopolize your attention in the here and now.
So what do I do?
Anything it takes.
I'll sing to you in Japanese.
I'm only here to entertain you.
So, yeah.
I mean, you do whatever it takes to keep people's attention.
You want to stay fit for your wife.
Your wife is going to want to stay fit for you.
The sex gets better because you know each other better.
Marriage is the best place for the best sex.
Frankly, without a doubt, no question, no holds barred, you just can't beat it.
You can't beat it!
So, yes.
If you care about her, you will stay healthy and attractive for her.
If she cares about you, she will stay healthy and attractive for you because she wants to bring you happiness and you want to bring her happiness.
So you will.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it.
And plus, are you worried about being attracted to a 75 year old woman?
Listen, bro, what do you think you're going to look like or I'm going to look like at 75?
It won't be the same.
It won't be the same.
I still got, what, 17 years to go to 75 or something like that, so.
Although in some ways I look better than I did 20 years ago because I'm about 30 pounds down, maybe 35.
Part of love is staying attractive.
What's up with furries?
I find it to be pretty creepy.
Is it somehow related to the pet fetish thing you've talked about previously?
No.
If you look at the extraordinarily high levels of sexual dysfunction that are going on in society at the moment, it is the result of one thing and one thing only.
To the most part.
There is a certain amount of destigmatization and so on but basically what's happened is with the crash and crater of the nuclear family and in particular with the rise of single motherhood you are having a massive catastrophic unbelievably godforsaken rampage pandemic of the sexual abuse of children.
Take the farthest out of the home.
I mean, to me, everyone who advocates for getting the farthest out of the home is doing so because they want to grab at the kids.
So, with furries, that is a certain amount of radical, sexual, non...
Evolutionary optimization, to put it as mildly as possible.
All of this stuff is coming out of the fact that one out of three girls and one out of five boys is sexually abused or assaulted as a child.
And that number is particularly high.
And higher, getting higher in government schools, of course, and it is getting higher, well, just look at what happened to some of the immigrants in England and in Rotterdam and other places.
So there is an epidemic of sexual abuse in society.
I pointed this out many many years ago that in the black community half, half of black girls report being raped by a black male before the age of 18.
Half of black girls report being raped by a black male before the age of 18.
I assume the number is higher because those reports tend to be a little on the low side.
So when Kevin Samuels is like, well, what issues do you black women have with the black men?
And it's like, well, that, that would be one of them.
I would talk about it with him, but he's taken the deep six.
So I really can't.
So yeah, when you see, I don't know, dysmorphia and anorexia and furry stuff and excessive tattoos, it's just like, we were sexually abused, we were sexually abused, we were sexually abused, and they'll talk about anything except the facts.
That is just the way that things are.
It's all a massive cover-up of this massive epidemic of the sexual abuse of children.
So, there we go.
All right, let's get to... That seems common in the mental health field.
I mean, look at nurses, you know?
You know that meme of like, I can't believe that cop slept with five co-workers and the nurses are all like doing that monkey eyeball thing, right?
Because, yeah, nurses, women named Tiffany, hairdressers, you know the thing, right?
Hot crazy matrix.
All right, my wife will give birth soon to our first child, 20th September.
Well, gosh oh gosh, that's very close to my birthday on the 24th of September.
I'm looking forward to some lovely gifts this year.
Do you have any suggestions slash tips what I can do as a young man to help my wife the next weeks, the next months?
How to interact with an infant as a father?
Any other older content that you can help me?
Well, I hope that you have been reading to your fetus.
I read to my fetus, I read to my wife's fetus, to my baby.
I read to Izzy starting at about three or four months of age.
I know, of course, that when a father reads to a fetus, when the baby is born, the baby recognizes the father's voice.
It's a little deeper.
Of course, she recognizes the mother's voice because she's in the mother.
But, you know, when you look down at your belly button, right, that's just your first mouth, right?
This is your second mouth.
That's your first mouth.
So you want to read, you want to provide her resources.
Recovering from childbirth is quite something, because the woman never feels the same again.
And it's true for the father, but it's more true for the mother.
She's never herself again.
She has a new identity, not just as a mother, but as a creator of life.
You have a new identity as a father, but it's a little more abstract, because it's not like you had to pass a bowling ball through your rectum.
I hope.
Rectum?
Damn near killed him.
She needs help reforging that new identity.
She is going to go through a phase, most women do, of feeling radically different.
Her femininity has completely altered itself from sexiness to nurturing.
And it doesn't mean 100% but the nurturing layer, the purpose of femininity and the purpose of masculinity is the making and having of babies.
And so a woman goes from being sexy, attractive and so on, and these things come back, but she goes to nurturing and she's going to, you're going to have to let her just fuse with the baby, merge with the baby, just be there to support her and be there to reassure her that you still find her very attractive, beautiful.
I wouldn't necessarily go with sexy while she's still recovering from the episiotomy, but I would say just make sure that you remind her that you don't Shift from a man who lusts after her, I mean basically if you're not harassing your wife I don't know what you're doing as a husband, but she wants reassurance that you're not going to take her out of the category of sexy wife into the category of asexual mother.
She wants to make sure that Your lust for her continues, that your love for her continues, that you are able to absorb within your competent masculinity her newfound motherhood identity and recognize that the pair... reassure her that the pair bonding is even stronger now.
Don't turn asexual because she had a baby.
You know, obviously enjoy the size of her breasts.
I mean, it's a one-time, well, it's a one-time thing as many as you have kids.
So just make sure that you're still sexy and playful with her after a certain amount of time has passed after the birth and reassure her that she's even sexier now and even more, you lust after her more now because lust is fun and lust is pair bonding.
So that would say that.
There's not much you can do at night time.
I guess you can get up with her, but you know, when the baby cries at night, your wife's just gonna have to throw a boob at the kid.
And a certain amount you can do.
Try and give her rest during the day.
Make sure that you keep things tidy around the house.
Make sure that you have enough food layered in and socked in.
And just be there to support her and share with her your excitement at the wonderful and foundationally purposeful part of this new journey you're making together as husband and wife.
And I think that would be wonderful.
Trust me, as you age, your taste in women changes, Kylie Minogue.
It's still gorgeous, ditto Tarja Turunen, plus 50 and 47, respectively.
Well, I suppose if you're into the real hourglass figure, you've got your Salma Hayek, who's also an economist, if I remember rightly.
But yes, congratulations on the baby, for sure.
Alright...
Women with many tattoos suggest sexual abuse.
What do men with many tattoos signal?
That they were abused.
Probably the same.
So, sexual abuse, usually if it's male, if it's a male who's sexually abusing a child, it is about hurting you by invading your body.
And what does tattoos do?
What do tattoos do?
They hurt you by invading your body.
It's a mirror situation.
Stafford watching really disturbing, scary movies in gore be considered self-harm.
I'm not into that stuff myself and can easily dismiss it, but it seems like some people just can't avoid it, even when they're warned they shouldn't watch it.
Well, I'm not sure what that means.
Everyone can avoid it if they want.
If they so choose, they can avoid it.
We used to hang out in the basement, play in the basement, chat in the basement.
And I would draw a head with an eyeball hanging out, holes in the cheek.
You could see the teeth.
Some of the teeth were hanging out.
You know, a severed neck, blood squirt.
I mean, I was obviously trying to communicate my own agony at home.
And you'd just be amazed that people don't know.
What's up with the... What's going on at home?
You seem to be kind of into the gore stuff, right?
So, in general, looking at the seriously gory stuff is a way of feeling overwhelmed and having to manage horror.
Right?
So, this is the Simon the Boxer stuff, right?
Simon the Boxer is a kid who was beaten up severely as a child.
He could not stop it.
He could not control it.
He could not manage it.
The only thing he could manage was his emotional response to being beaten.
To manage the pain, shock, and horror of being beaten.
But the problem is if the only sense of control he has is managing the feelings of being beaten then the only way he can maintain any sense of control in his adult life is to go out and get beaten so he can manage those feelings.
So people who've had a lot of horror as children, I remember as a kid man I mean I mentioned this many years ago but I was in a boarding school And they played, you know, The Longest Journey, a bunch of kid films and so on, and then one week they played The Omega Man, or Omega Man, which is an old Charlton Heston film, I think it was remade with Will Smith, as I am a legend, about a guy struggling to survive a zombie apocalypse.
I mean, it was horrifying.
It was just absolutely horrifying.
You know, I was the youngest kid, I think, in the boarding school and all the other kids were in the dormitory.
Everybody was whimpering that night.
I don't know what the hell they were doing, why they didn't just turn it off, because it was absolutely terrifying movie for a six-year-old.
I think it was restricted.
It was that gory and horrible.
And so if people are exposed to massive amounts of horror, either through media or through torture or abuse, they get used to managing.
The only thing that they have a sense of control over is managing The horror that they feel.
Mastering it, managing it, controlling it.
And so, the only sense of control they have is managing horror, and therefore, when they get out of home, they're addicted to watching horror so they get a sense of control from managing it.
Sorry, I missed this quote.
What do you think about sperm donation, Steph?
Well, certainly not live.
At least not tonight.
I want to have my own kids but also donate sperm and allow the kids to contact me when they will be 18.
A guy in Denmark has over a thousand kids from private donations.
He made a YouTube account to educate them and allows contact with the Netflix documentary.
I don't see what would be wrong with sperm.
It's your property and as long as it's voluntary, which of course in this case it is.
So... I don't see any particular issue with it.
I mean 10% of couples have significant problems conceiving and usually because female reproductive organs and systems are much more complicated than the dumb stick and the and the tadpoles so most often it would be the woman's issue which is why there are surrogates and egg donors but if it is the man's issue then
Now, I guess the question is, and we still don't know the data on what the long-term mental health effects are of same-sex parents raising children.
We don't know the long-term effects of that, so that would have to be something that you would have to consult your
conscience on.
I really don't have any particular thoughts about Muslim countries and loosening their restrictions.
I don't, I mean, I don't really evaluate much theological stuff anymore.
It's just so distant from the philosophy realm.
Tarja Turunen is a Finnish soprano, OG singer for metal band Nightwish.
Well, all right.
So wait, are you saying that picture Is of a woman who is 47?
Ah, let's see here.
year. Yeah, that's filtrous, that's a lot of makeup and I assume that's a lot of Botox.
I mean, aging... what is it?
Somebody posted something they think that Tim Waltz is younger than Brad Pitt and younger than Tom Cruise but looks of course older.
So there is a certain amount of genetics involved in aging but in particular I guess women do this odd thing, to me it's kind of odd, where it's just like wow look how young she looks and there's very little reality about any of that.
I mean, that's a huge amount of makeup.
I assume... I don't know.
I don't know the woman, right?
But if I had to put money...
on it I would assume a huge amount of a fair amount of teeth whitening and obviously her eyebrows have been shaped and her hair has been dyed because there's very few women pushing 50 who don't have a single gray hair I mean come on right so and she I mean even Annie Lennox if you see Annie Lennox is actually kind of interesting right because I mean a very beautiful woman with a great voice But if you look, she did one album cover like, I don't know, 30 years plus ago, which was called Diva, which is heavy makeup.
And then she did an album cover many years later called Bear, where she had no makeup.
Now, of course, there was a lot of years in between the two, but Bear, you would see Annie Lennox without makeup.
Somebody can post that in the chat, just the picture of the cover of Annie Lennox's album Bear.
B-A-R-E.
And you can just see the difference.
You can just see the difference.
And I am aware, of course, that I look okay on these videos, you know, but, jeez, I mean, I haven't had any work done, obviously, right?
But yeah, you look at these wrinkles, you see me sort of, and you can see this when I walk in the woods, you see me in full sunlight.
I mean, I don't look like this!
I don't look like this!
In full sunlight, and you can see them because I do shows outside and all of that, so... Yeah, I, uh... And also, I think, I think, if women don't have children, they seem to age a little slower.
And so, all of that, right?
I don't know when this photo was taken.
She looks her age, but looks good.
No, she doesn't look, she doesn't look, she does not look 47.
Yeah, so that's Annie Lennox bare, right?
So that's Annie Lennox, I think, without much makeup.
Right?
That's just the way that it is.
Yeah, Clint Eastwood's pretty wrinkly, but he's handsome.
Good-looking people age better.
Yeah, for sure.
So, she looks her age.
She's fit because she swims.
So what does that mean?
It means you don't age?
So she dyed her hair.
So she does dye her hair, right?
So this is why.
Right?
This is why.
And she had neck work done.
She's got no neck wrinkles.
Maybe she's just not spend any time in the sun.
Or maybe she's just one of these people who looks naturally young.
But there's this weird kind of death match of anti-aging that goes on for women.
Yeah, that's the Bear album.
I mean, it's a very pretty woman, but then you take her away without makeup and that's it, right?
Uh, no makeup.
One kid.
Really?
Are you trying to tell me that that's a picture of her with no makeup?
Come on.
Come on.
I can see the makeup!
She looks like a giant sunburned thumb.
She's got eyeshadow on, she's got shaper foundation, she's got bronzing, her hair is dyed.
Oh my gosh.
You show me, you show me a picture without makeup of her with a full grin.
In straight sunlight.
That's what I want to see.
Full grin.
I mean, I reveal all this stuff because I don't particularly care about aging.
I just want to stay healthy.
And, you know, post-cancer, whatever you age beats the alternative.
But if you think that is her without makeup, you are... Here's the problem, man.
Here's the problem.
So, some people's job is to look good.
And she's, you know, she's attractive.
She's got those kind of ice blue eyes and all that kind of stuff and so on.
But some people's job is to look good.
I remember I talked once to a guy who managed a very famous musical act.
It was a woman and she had children and she was trying to get back on tour and she just could not lose the baby weight.
They had her working out two, three hours a day on a strict diet but she just couldn't lose the baby weight and they had to postpone the tour.
I had to postpone the tour.
Right?
Oh, yeah, see, that's better.
Yeah, that's it.
That's it, baby.
Now we're talking.
Okay, so that's how... I mean, obviously, a certain amount of face strain and all of that, but that is... That's it, right?
That is the... That's the one, right?
No makeup compared to how she usually looks, Steph.
What?
Oh yeah, well, yeah, let's make up, right?
So, I remember seeing a woman I adore in full sunlight.
The sunlight aged her a few years in the moment.
Yeah, for sure.
For sure.
I like the Sly Stallone versus Dolph Lundgren contrast.
Lundgren looks like he's aged gracefully, whilst Stallone has freakish amounts of plastic surgery.
You're gonna get old and your skin doesn't usually matter.
What matters is cardiovascular.
What matters is if you have that visceral fat.
And what matters is your muscles and your bones.
Your skin doesn't matter.
I remember... Oh gosh, this is going back.
This is going back.
There was a girl I dated briefly in junior high school.
Let's call her Sam.
Sure.
This is Samantha.
It's not her name.
So I dated Samantha and we had... She was very pretty.
A little overweight.
And we had a bit of an odd relationship.
Now I wasn't some big super hound dog in junior high.
I was just happy to go on a date or anything like that.
I think we only kissed once or twice.
She felt very awkward holding my hand.
She was very tense and We would have these notes exchanged in the back class.
Boy, this is going back a ways.
So we'd have these little notes exchanged.
I can't believe I remember all of this stuff, but nothing gets released from my brain.
Everything gets kept, it seems.
So, and I remember.
She deflected compliments kind of obsessively, and I remember we would have these exchanges sometimes, like I would pass her a note saying, you look beautiful today, or you look beautiful, or something like that.
She would send me back a note saying, don't be ridiculous.
And I would write a note back saying, ah well I suppose love is blind.
And then she would write a note back saying, well if you can call it love.
And it was actually kind of sad.
Really.
I met her family and her father was, her mother was kind of absent.
Her father was sort of a pompous loud guy and one of these just, you know, kind of fake false self kind of guys.
Anyway, we, I can't even remember how long we dated, but nothing happened.
I mean, we barely kissed and she just seemed very, very tense about any of that stuff.
And, oh gosh, I'm trying to remember when it was now, but it was decades later.
I ran into her in a mall in Toronto and she never did any sports.
She didn't really spend much time outside and I suppose she'd spend a lot of time inside because one of the things that ages you is sunlight, but it's also good for you in a lot of ways as well.
So I saw her and she hadn't aged that much, but she also had no ring on her finger, clearly had not settled down, and I think I got a sense that she was still proud of how young she looked, but for what?
For what?
What's the point?
It's just egg camouflage!
It's fertility falsehood!
It's lying!
It's lying!
It's like a guy penciling in a bunch of zeros on his bank account.
It's not real!
Men judge egg quality by skin quality and now there's a whole bunch of bullshit that you can do freezing and injecting viruses and sandblasting and all kinds of stretchy pulley freaky shit that you can do to pretend your eggs ain't your eggs.
The eggs went off three months ago, but, but, it's fine because we painted some silver on the stinky box.
It's like, well, it doesn't really... We're altering the expiration date on the eggs!
It's like, you know, that doesn't change the fact that they went off, right?
So, trying to look that young is kind of pathetic.
It's kind of pathetic.
Now, again, you know, we, what was it, somebody was saying about pearly things, that she, because she posted pictures of herself sweating on some run, and she said, gotta hand it, somebody said, gotta hand it to Pearl Davis.
She posts the kinds of pictures that women would delete and then immediately delete from the deleted folders bin, right?
Korean for skin cream, yeah.
I'll literally take the genitally mutilated tips of baby male fetuses' penises and use it for face cream.
What's the point?
What's the point?
Oh, you look young.
Which means what?
Now, again, if you want to look good for your partner, I think that's great.
Should look good for your partner.
You should do your very best to look as good as you can for your partner.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
But she looks so young.
I remember even in the realm of politics, like back when I was in the realm of politics, There were these bizarre fights that go on and bizarre perspectives.
Bizarre to me.
I'm sure they make perfect sense to women.
Girl drama!
Girl drama alert.
So one of these was Sarah Huckabee Sanders posted a picture of a pie she'd made and the women went insane.
That's not your pie!
That's a store-bought pie!
I can tell from this!
And I can tell from that!
And the shadow of this!
That's not your real pie!
Mental.
Like, who cares, right?
The other one that I remember and it was Ann Coulter and Ann Coulter was talking about Elizabeth Warren's
skin care regime.
you Whatever you want to say about her, her skin looks fantastic.
What kind of skin care regime...
Who cares?
Who cares?
Once you're past childbearing age, who cares?
Once you're married, who cares?
It's young. Alright. Dolf Lundgren is very blessed genetically. Alright.
D'chaun.
Arre.
Darth Lungren is very blessed genetically.
Oh, brilliant guy!
What has he got, a master's in chemical engineering?
Like a really brilliant guy.
But I mean, Stallone is very intelligent too, so... Somebody says, I know this isn't in the realm of politics, but what are your thoughts on people refusing to acknowledge the history and reality?
What am I doing?
JP?
JFK or AP?
Ask because Kamala is advocating for press controls and giving new homeowners 25k.
Her policies will total 1.2 trillion dollars.
It's insane!
Well, I mean, her father's a famous Marxist professor and her mother comes from the Brahmin caste in India.
And her father is the owner of a long line of ex-slave plantations in Jamaica.
What does she have to do with reality?
She spent her teenage years in Montreal.
She kind of blew away up the totem pole of politics.
So, I mean, what would she have to do with reality or numbers or anything like that?
See, people complain that politicians lie, which is completely bizarre to me.
I mean, only if you're capable of pathological lying, for the most part, could you even be a politician, because I couldn't say that kind of stuff with a straight face.
I'd feel terrible about it, because I have a conscious.
So, I just can't bald-faced lie to people.
You know, it'll pay for itself.
So, it's not so much that politicians are liars as that anybody who's not a pathological liar, generally, Can't be a politician.
It's only if you let go of the truth and just bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe, bribe Yeah.
Refusing to acknowledge the history in reality, well, people deny reality all the time.
I mean, it's human nature in the current twisted system to deny reality.
So, people don't want to see, what's that old line from Monty Python, right?
People don't want to see the violence inherent in the system.
People don't want to understand how our existing system is built, ground up, top to bottom, back to front, inside and
out, on coercion.
All right.
It pains me to see the 40-year-old single women who exercise hard and have amazing figures.
They're trying to do everything but stay attractive, but they cannot turn back time.
Yeah.
That's very sad.
Lots of people talking.
Very few of them know.
Soul of a woman was created below.
I don't believe that, but it's a cool line.
Alright.
Lots of talk.
Sorry to have heard of it.
Blood transfusions from babies on Epstein Island to de-age old monsters.
Yeah, I don't know if any of that's true, but...
Alright people, if you wouldn't mind tipping a little bit, a little bit, I would not mind at all.
Quebec ass mucking church!
That's right.
Quebec, it's slang French.
It's gutter French according to the French.
It's like Cockney for English.
I lived in Quebec for four years for the most part, minus summers where I had to go back to Ontario to work.
What is the deal with women who put a tremendous amount of time, money and effort into looking attractive and then ruin their bodies with tattoos?
I don't know what deal you're looking for but they are looking to be used I assume.
I mean they want to make themselves as attractive as possible because they don't feel that their personality is enough to attract a man and then they make sure they attract the right kind of user and abuser by making sure they're covered in tattoos.
Steph, how long have you been taking creatine?
Has it worked out well for you?
I don't think it's made much difference, really.
I've been taking it for like two weeks, so I don't think it's had much of an effect.
I'll give it a try.
I'll give it a try.
I had a friend of mine who's ex-army who warned me that creatine could lead to gout.
But I don't think that that's true.
I try.
Every now and then I'll try a little supplement here and there.
Generally, they don't do much for me.
But it's, you know, worth giving a try.
Thank you, JP, not Morgan.
I appreciate that.
So, let's see.
I take lutein.
L-U-T-E-I-N.
It's supposed to be good for my eyes.
My optometrist recommended that.
I guess it's fine.
I need new glasses.
I don't need, but I get new glasses every three years or whatever it is.
So, eyes seem to be pretty good.
Coenzymes.
So.
All right.
Have you heard about creatine increasing IQ?
I hear a lot of stuff about a lot of things.
Melatonin for sleep.
They just don't really do much for me.
I mean, I just none of that.
I mean, I...
Well, but you already have a 165 IQ, what does 167 really do for you?
Heh heh.
So.
Yeah, I mean, there's lots of studies, and they say things, um...
I just don't know that it really makes much of a difference for me.
All right, I'm going to just see if you have any other questions or comments, because I certainly do have.
Yeah, nicotine for IQ.
Nicotine's supposed to be quite good for that, although obviously I wouldn't recommend it in the smoked form.
Smoky bacon-flavored lunglets.
Going once, going twice, questions, comments, let me check in the various places where people can leave me things.
Thank you.
Creatine takes a few weeks to reach helpful levels.
A higher doses loading phase is usually used.
Yeah, no, I did like four scoops a day for the first week.
Tipping requires a message to send.
Well, I appreciate that.
Both the tipping and the message.
Jim Carrey style.
Tipping and the message.
Boy, there's a tragic life, eh?
Ouchies.
I know you were being facetious, but I'd actually believe that IQ.
Well, I don't, I don't, like in language, there's almost nothing I can't do.
There's, you know, with math, I'm above average, but not great, but there's almost nothing I can't do in the realm of language.
So I have yet to sort of reach a ceiling.
Oh, I can't do this, but no further, right?
So I would be, I think I would be around the highest when it came to language.
Reasoning skills are very good too.
I mean, Aristotle said that the greatest mark of genius is analogies.
The creation of effective analogies and I really don't know that there are many people better in the world at creating effective analogies.
They just flow into my brain because it's looking at the essentials of unlike things.
Can you rap fast?
Come on man, I did a whole rap song with a lit up candy necklace back in the day.
I'm sure that James can find it for me.
I rapped a... was it Eminem?
A response to Eminem's Trump rap.
Alright.
Bye.
True language helps much more in social aspects of achievement.
Sorry, that's a bit of a DVD.
I'm not really sure what that means.
I'm not really sure what that means.
All right, going once, going twice.
Give me a comment.
I may in fact ask you, can I do this?
Can I really do this?
Well, here's a comment that I read.
Tell me what you guys think.
This is Nick Huber.
He's less vain than his brother Nick Huber is.
Old people are incredibly lonely.
And I don't understand why their grandchildren don't bother to call them once a month or even a few times a year.
This is sad.
Why don't 20 to 40 year olds give a crap about the people who work their whole lives to build a better life for them?
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have an ungrateful child.
Have you... noticed this?
Have you noticed this?
Eminem against President Donald Trump.
The podcast is 3855.
Not that many raps incorporate the philosophy of property rights and John Locke.
I wrote me a whole rap.
You should watch the video though.
You just can't.
I'm glad you chose to use your intelligence for good, Steph.
I would say mostly I am.
Yeah, mostly.
Damn, I could have been something without it though, man.
If I had just loosened the restraining bolts.
There we go.
There's Rappy Steph.
There's Stephie Jeff.
Um, the fact that Izzy lent me her light-up candy necklace and I had it flashing during the whole thing, that really was something.
Yeah, I think I was still a little heavier even back then.
Anyway.
So, yep, that's the one.
Big chatty forehead, rise to the rescue.
Um, here comes Ryman Simon.
Can you not see the rumble comets?
Uh, let me see here.
Can I?
I thought they all came to one place.
But I could be wrong.
Steph was touched by one of his mother's boyfriends.
That is not true.
What was your mother's relationship like with her own parents?
Well, I don't know much about her relationship with her mother because her mother died in the bombing at Dresden in 1944.
But she did beg her mother to leave Dresden but her mother stayed because her mother was a secretary for some official and she stayed.
They left.
There was the thousand plane bombing raid which One of my father's sister's husbands was actually on, and when my mother and her father returned the next day, the whole house was gone.
They found nothing of her except the clasp of her purse.
Her relationship with her own father, she absolutely worshipped her father.
She absolutely worshipped her father.
It was really, really unfortunate and very, very unfair to my brother that my mother always thought that I was just like her father, who she worshipped and adored.
And she felt and constantly said to my brother, you're just like your father, right?
Who she divorced, right?
So it was very, very unfortunate and unjust and wrong.
All right.
I start, yeah, and my mother's family was very fragile in that way, in that she had a big fight with her half-brother over who was supposed to pay for the flowers for the father's funeral, and it just went crazy.
Although my mother used to say, she always said, That she was at her father's deathbed.
I remember I was in my early teens and she flew to Germany and left me alone for a week or two while she was going to deal with her father's death.
And she came back and she said, pretty much for the rest of the years that I knew her, she said, my father looked at me as he was dying and he said, of all my children you're the only one who ever made sense.
Which I suppose tells you a little bit about her father's perceptivity and discretion, but alright.
Somebody says... I started a petition for increasing homeschool awareness for poor people.
I did homeschooling social groups, did volleyball three to four times, beat dating five, trail hiked, still can't find valued friends.
Yeah, I mean...
Friends are a nice side dish, but the main course is family, right?
you Hello, San Diego!
Childhood seems a lot like slavery.
A child is not considered a person by the society.
They can't choose their own relationships and they can't choose their own occupation.
It's insane.
Sorry, why is that insane?
How can a child possibly choose his own relationships?
That would require that the child has the maturity to choose relationships, and that people would be willing to take in other people's children, which is just not going to happen, for the most part.
I mean, obviously there are some people who do take in other people's kids, adoption, and so on, but it's just not going to happen.
It's not going to happen at all.
A childhood seems a lot like slavery.
A slave did have some legal protections and redress, and a slave could escape.
It's in some ways worse.
How do I get people to converse with me?
I get a lot of attention for growing out my beard, but even with dressing well, it's rarely, outside of a profession, a positive thing.
I'm one of those guys past 28 still taking the bus, by the way.
How do I get people to converse with me?
Do you feel entitled to people conversing with you?
Would you guys like to know the dark secret of getting people to talk to you?
Thank you for the donation, I appreciate that.
Would you like to know the dark secret?
The dark secret!
Of getting people to talk to you as an adult.
Would you like to hear that?
It's dark, man.
But real.
But real.
Hit me with a why if you would like to know how to get people to talk to you as an adult.
Just out of curiosity, you can say that on Rumble as well.
Just hit me with a Y if you would like to see that.
Yes.
Not be interesting.
No!
Not be interesting.
Well, there's this book that may summon some troll from a few weeks ago.
Ah, the scut!
The scut!
Argh!
Well, anybody who's got to consume haggis on a regular basis gets a couple of pass for being a bad-tempered son of a bitch, so... Nope, be rich or handsome?
Nope!
All right.
Why, when I was deplatformed, did all of my former colleagues stop talking to me?
Just out of curiosity, why, when I was deplatformed, did all of my former colleagues stop talking to me?
I'm sorry to be loud.
It's a little funny.
I'm not cynical about it.
I'm just... because I try not to be cynical about reality.
No, sorry.
It's all be interesting.
Show interest to them.
Nope.
Yeah, provide value.
That's right, Doug.
Provide value.
That's it.
So, when I was deplatformed, I could no longer benefit my former colleagues, so they had no reason to talk to me.
No, it's not radioactive at the time.
It's like, oh, this person can no longer advance my career.
I can no longer get access to Steph's audience because he's been deplatformed.
So I don't provide much value to people after I was deplatformed.
Now, of course, the people in my life, friends, family, and so on, and you guys, I appreciate that.
Still providing value, which is great.
Love to have you here.
Thank you so much for coming by.
Big kisses from here to eternity.
But your job as an adult is to provide value to people.
As a kid, as a toddler, as a baby, no.
As an adult, yes.
Yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
Provide value.
So the reason that people aren't talking to you is they can't see that you can provide them value.
The value could be financial, it could be career, it could be sex, it could be status, it could be any number of things.
But I'll be honest with you, brother.
Okay.
To the person who posted this, to the person who posted this, give me your rough income bracket.
You say, guys, past 28, still taking the bus.
Give me your, are you making 20k, 30k, 40k, 50k, just roughly, you don't have to give me, just give me the decile.
Just give me that.
Otherwise, I'm gonna guess.
Because if you're pushing 30 and you're broke, people understand you can't offer them anything.
you You can't offer them anything.
Right?
And we all understand this.
We all understand this.
How do we all understand this, in particular, as men?
Will you talk to an attractive 25-year-old woman in the same way that you would talk to an attractive 75-year-old woman?
Will you put a little more effort into being charming to the 25-year-old woman or the 75-year-old woman?
Would you buy dinner for the 25-year-old woman but not the 75-year-old woman?
Come on!
We all know this!
We all know this!
You're charming and nice and friendly and funny and chatty and blah blah blah blah blah
to the 25 year old women.
Right?
Because she's supposed to provide value, the value of dating, of a relationship, of family, wifeliness, mother for your kids, companion to the old age.
Of course you're going to put more effort into the younger woman.
Of course!
Listen.
Come on.
We all know this.
I was on a business flight many years ago.
Back when I was still in the software world.
I was in a business flight and I happened to sit next to a woman.
And we fell to chatting because I love chatting with people.
And we fell to chatting and it turned out she was a literary agent.
And I said, oh, that's funny.
I said, you know, I said when I, um, Because I'm in computers, if people find out that I'm a computer expert, then people say, oh, you know, I have this weird thing where I boot up and I get this sign and I don't know what it means and this, I can't, the .ini file doesn't, whatever, right?
And it's like being a doctor, you know, oh, I'm a doctor, oh, you know, doc, when I move my arm like this, anyway, and she just looked at me and she said, and I said, do you have this, like people say, oh, you're a literary agent, I have a novel, right?
And she's like, you have a novel, don't you?
And I'm like, yes, I do, but The way that I introduced it was quite compelling, don't you think?
The way I introduced the topic of me having a novel.
And so back then we were just starting to talk about the diversity initiatives and I said, because they were trying, she said, you know, we have a big push to publish Inuit authors.
And I said, ah, my name is Ugluk McLean.
I don't know.
Oogluck.
It sounded like Nanook of the North.
Oogluck, McLean.
And so I ended up chatting with her, talked about my novel a bit, asked her about her business.
I was nice and got her contact information.
And then I sent her my novel.
I sent her Just Poor and she said, I like it.
I like it.
I like it a lot.
I like it a lot.
But the last third to me doesn't work.
So we talked about it a little bit.
And because I'm a very motivated guy, I took a three-week leave of absence from my work.
I flew to England.
I rented a cottage in the exact area where my novel was supposed to be taking place.
This is my novel from the late... It's a historical novel set in England in the late 18th century.
So, I figured out... I mean, I knew where the novel was taking place.
I rented a cottage.
I flew out, rented a cottage.
It's the last time I was in England.
And stayed there.
I ended up staying there two and a half weeks.
And I did endless hikes and walks to absorb the sights and sounds.
I chatted with the locals.
I chatted with the farmers so that I could get a sense of their speech patterns.
It's one of the reasons why Just Poor is so vivid.
And I rewrote the last half of the book.
And it was actually much better, the second one, right?
So she had interest in me because she thought I might be a good writer, although the book never went anywhere from there, but I'm very glad that she made her comments because I did end up improving the book considerably.
But we exchanged information because she thought I might be a profitable novelist to publish
and I wanted a literary agent.
You're there to provide value to each other.
Thank you for your time.
you That's life!
That's adult life!
As a kid you shouldn't have to provide value, right?
As a kid, right?
But as an adult, you have to provide value.
So why should someone talk to you?
Why should anyone listen to me doing a live stream?
Oh, so you make below $20,000 and you're pushing $30,000.
Well, fix that shit, man.
Go make some more money.
Find out a way to make more money.
Be creative.
Find out.
I mean lord knows I've had to do a couple of fucking do-si-dos to keep
body and soul together so to speak from a Income standpoint
So Yeah, even if a kid it was beneficial to be good at sports
or drawing Yeah, absolutely.
I mean, I very clearly remember when I came to Canada, I'd only played rounders.
I hadn't played baseball.
In rounders, which is the British form of baseball, you hit the ball, you don't have, you can just take, you get three pitches and you can take your best hit.
So I hit the ball pretty well.
I'm a pretty good hitter.
And all the kids said, run.
And I'm like, no, no, I'll take the next one.
And they're like, there's no next one.
Run, you limey bastard.
So yeah, I was good at soccer, not good at football.
I was good at tennis because I've been playing since about the age of five or six.
My manic mother would get us up at dawn to go and climb the fence, climb these big giant high fences to go and play To go and play tennis for free because I think it was at 7.30 in the morning they started charging but we climbed over the fence so she'd get us up like at dawn to go and play tennis before we went to school.
So we played a lot of tennis, a lot of tennis.
So I was pretty good at that.
And my social status was fairly good, and then I started going to nightclubs at about the age of 16.
And I would just disco all night, dance all night, uh, and, uh... I just can't get enough.
I love dancing too, uh... You watch out, you might get what you're after, cool baby, strange but not a stranger.
I'm an ordinary guy burning down the house.
So yeah, I mean, he loved dancing to that stuff.
Billy Idol was big at the time.
Went to see him in concert.
And I remember some of the cool kids when I was, we went to, I got out.
I didn't do the full year of high school.
I got out early because I did some summer school.
I was just so desperate to get out.
But But I was 17, a bunch of kids from the high school managed to talk their way into going, and they saw me dancing, chatting with girls, and all that kind of stuff, and my social status just went through the roof.
So then, you know, people wanted to invite me even more to parties, and all that kind of stuff, and of course my house became pretty My apartment became a pretty cool place to be.
Because I didn't have parents.
There is nothing pure in this world, no.
There is nothing sure in this world.
Yeah, um, it's great stuff.
So...
What do you have to offer people?
What do you have to offer people?
What do you have to... You've got to ask this every day.
What do you have to offer people?
Why should they interact with you?
Why should they interact with you?
Why should people email me?
Why should you do call-in shows?
Why should you sit and watch... You can watch this later.
What value do you have to offer to people?
And if you can't answer that, you're just a fraud.
Well, people should talk to me because I'm me.
And people kind of owe me conversation.
But if it's not rec... Do you find somebody broker than you and chat them up for three hours?
You don't.
If you're pushing 30 and you got nothing to offer people, you missed the bus.
Well, I guess not you.
You can't afford to miss the bus.
But you gotta shake off that shit and go and make some money and... You know... I've done a number of creative projects over the course of my life.
I sunk an ungodly amount of money into a short film about a comedian who comes back from the Second World War and how tense and terrified and PTSD he is.
It's a time between when he gets back and then the time that he makes his first joke.
It's called After, and you can find it at FDRpodcasts.com.
I actually have a little cameo in that.
So I did all of that.
So I was generating jobs.
Got a cinematographer, got a director, got actors, sets, and rented houses, and we had to rent a really old car to have the guy dropped off from the airport at.
So I spent a lot of money, and people wanted to chat with me because They could get a job.
I wrote a play towards the end of theatre school, loved it, and produced it in downtown Toronto, so people wanted to be in my play.
So we ran for two weeks and it was a great time.
When I was in the business world I interviewed a thousand people probably
hired about a hundred people over the course of my career so I could give
people jobs.
you you
Dude, I haven't gotten to the band XTC.
Is that one, two, three, four, five senses working overtime?
Yeah, that's the one.
Yeah, that was a good band.
That was a good band.
So, what do you have?
Why should people talk to you?
What is adulthood about?
Adulthood is about the exchange of values, right?
Adulthood is about the exchange of values.
This is one of the reasons I nag people to donate.
It's like, I'm not your father, you're not a toddler, this is an exchange of value conversation and you need to exchange value for value.
I'm providing great value to you.
I am absolutely, completely, deeply and viscerally certain how much value I provide.
Know that for a fact that it is deeper than to me than my own fucking bone marrow.
I just know exactly how much value I'm providing and this is why I nag people to donate.
I don't want you to be like passive take care of me daddy.
It's not reciprocal.
I need you to remember to exchange value for value.
That way you are reminded that we're all adults here and we don't parasite.
Right?
And I would be parasiting if I was not providing value but instead just Demanding resources, right?
So... What do you have to offer people?
I was talking with a friend of mine today.
He wants to date.
Okay.
Is a woman going to be lucky to be with you?
Why should she pick you out of a crowd?
Are you going to have an interesting good life?
Are you a good conversationist?
Will you be a good husband, a good father for her children?
Will she be happy and lucky to be with you?
Because if you're trying to get women to date you and you don't think you're a catch, you're a fraud!
And they sense that and they turn away!
Oh, yeah, you know, I got this great car for you to buy.
Man, it's a great car.
Yeah, I mean, it's, you know, maybe it looks a little rough on the outside.
I get that.
I've used a little nail polish over here, a little spray paint over there.
It's not all the same color.
Yeah, you'll need a bit of a coat hook to get that door open.
No, no, don't turn it on.
Don't turn it on, man.
Just trust me.
It runs.
I mean, honestly, it could be running right now.
You wouldn't even know it.
It's so quiet.
But don't slam those doors, please.
Please don't slam those doors.
Don't.
Don't kick the tires.
Yeah, the exhaust pipe is back there somewhere.
It may not be hugely visible, but it's there, absolutely.
And hey man, it's only $5,000.
Oh, you can get replacement parts if you need it.
They're all over the place.
You can get them on eBay for like pennies on the dollar.
But yeah, if you could buy this...
I can't stand the sound of the car leaving, so if you could just get it, like, just get it towed.
Get it towed to your place, give me the five grand, get it towed to your place, and you'll be about as happy as you can be, right?
Would you buy a car from someone like that, Mr. Shifty McShiftyface?
Boaty McBoatface?
Shifty McShiftface?
Yeah, that's a ticket.
Yeah, that's what you need.
You need a car like this.
Yeah, it's perfect.
Couldn't be any worse.
Couldn't be any better.
It's a perfect car.
I didn't even know what a lemon is.
I died of scurvy three days ago.
Cash for Clunkers Obama Special Yeah, for sure.
For sure.
What do you have to offer people?
That's like the growing up stuff which took me an embarrassingly long amount of time so I'm very humble about all this kind of stuff.
I mean frankly I am the most humble person in the known universe.
You just can't argue it.
That's not even a humble brag, that's just a fact, right?
What woman could resist that room full of cherry action figurines and a huge gaming station?
So if What you have to offer people is begging them to rescue you from your self-condemnation and desperation and isolation.
Save me from my isolation!
That's not a very compelling... That's like going into a job interview and saying, I'm starving, man!
Hire me!
I'm hungry!
I'm gonna die!
I mean, that's pretty sad, right?
Nobody's gonna hire you for that.
Nobody's going to hire you for that.
Need is the least motivating thing in the known universe.
Now, politicians will do all kinds of horrible stuff around need, manipulate it, bribe it, and so on, but in the dating market, you know, if there's, let's say that there's some characteristic that you really don't like around women, you find it very unattractive, obese or something like that, right?
But she really, really wants a boyfriend.
Are you going to be like, yeah, I'll take a chunky bullet for the team.
Yeah, I'll do it.
I'll do it.
I'll date her.
I'll be her boyfriend.
I might even marry her and have kids with her.
I'm not as attracted to her, but she needs, she needs, she needs someone.
She needs someone.
Come on, man.
Do it.
You know, like you have the wingman, there's the one really attractive girl, and then there's her fat friend.
The wingman has to take out the fat friend so you can talk to the pretty girl.
Why should anyone talk to you?
you That's the fundamental question, right?
Why should anyone talk to you?
Well, you know, I need someone to talk to.
It's like, so does everyone.
Is that, is it important to you, right?
Don't, don't be a hypocrite.
That's my big moral advice.
Yes, don't be a hypocrite.
That's, that's solved everything in your life.
I mean, I have to remind myself of this too, right?
So don't be a hypocrite.
So you're in a position, I think, of just need, need, need, want, want, want.
I need a friend.
I want a friend.
I'm doing all these things.
Why don't I have a friend?
How do I get people to talk to me?
Why won't people talk to me?
Well, how many lonely people are you talking to?
How many people who have lower status than you are you talking to?
Because the way that life works when you're an actual Honest-to-goodness adult is when you meet someone, you figure out if you can exchange any values or virtues whatsoever.
If you can't, no conversation particularly ensues.
And people are always like, oh, you know, I never meet someone that just asked me these shallow status questions, you know, what do you do for a living, blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, because they want to know if you're in a position of equality.
Right?
Because if you're not in a position of equality, one of you is going to end up wanting something from the other person.
In a situation of equality, so let's say you're a pickleball or you're playing tennis or something and you start chatting with someone and it's like, oh, what do you do for a living?
Oh, I'm a lawyer.
What do you do?
I'm a doctor.
Great.
So we're not going to Must be begging each other for money, jobs.
We already have status, so we don't need the other person for status.
Now maybe, if I need some medical advice and you need some legal advice, we could trade something.
But if you're playing tennis and somebody says, what do you do?
I say, I'm a lawyer.
What do you do?
I've been unemployed for two years.
What did you do before that?
I was a dishwasher.
It's like, we just don't have that much in common.
We haven't organized our life.
There could be an IQ disparity.
We haven't planned things in the same way.
What do we have?
What do we have in common?
I mean, I guess I can give you free legal advice and maybe a job.
What can you give me?
And people get really upset about this.
Well, this is just dry calculations of mutual utility.
It's like, hello!
Welcome to life!
That's what life is.
Dry calculations.
They say dry or whatever, right?
people who have nothing to offer always dislike the fact that life is an auction
block and uh... i'm going to go to a philosophy of your behavior
of virtue and happiness level of
i'm just auctioning off virtue Virtue here.
Bye.
Trying to auction off some happiness and some integrity.
It's hard won by me.
Maybe I can transfer some of the principles to you.
I want you to think of two soldiers.
One of them has a gun with no... they're under fire.
One of them has a gun with no ammo.
The other one has ammo with no gun.
Now, if the guy with a gun and no ammo meets another guy, another soldier with a gun and no ammo, they're not that happy.
If a guy with ammo but no gun meets another soldier with an ammo but no gun, they're not that happy either.
But if the guy with the ammo meets the guy with the gun, then they can put the two together and continue to fight their war.
And survive!
Right.
What do you have to offer?
Even learning a new language the voice adapts and distracts me hard to focus.
Well I mean if you have a mental affliction that way then unfortunately you know like it or not unfortunately if you hopefully you can find a way to deal with this mental affliction but it's kind of tough for people who don't have that kind of mental affliction who are hearing if people aren't hearing voices and I mean I certainly know I You know, everybody, I think, in a monologue, in a dialogue and so on, we hear voices.
I argue with myself, I argue, I even replay old arguments and try and think of better ways to answer and all of that.
I've been doing that my whole life.
So, I think everyone has a certain amount of voices in their head.
But, if you have a...
If you're a neurodivergent from the general population, then I would assume that it's going to be a little bit easier to chat with people who are more like yourself.
Somebody says, this triggers me!
Not because I think I don't have anything to offer, but because it makes me think people just want to use me.
Really?
Really.
So precious.
And so false.
Okay, let me ask you this.
Let me ask you this.
Existiert?
Existiert?
Do you watch these live streams because you just care about me as an independent sovereign human being and want me to be happy?
Or, or, do you watch these live streams because you hope to gain something of value and insight from what it is that I'm saying?
Other people's questions, my answers, the back and forth and so on.
Are you watching this live stream because you want to gain something from me?
And the answer is, of course, and I would expect nothing else and I would consider it
completely false, completely false for somebody to claim otherwise, but the answer is that
you watch this live stream.
Because, because you want to gain something of value, right?
you You want to gain something of value.
People vote because they want to gain something of value.
Some people vote because they want free stuff.
Other people vote because they don't want to have other people using state power to take their stuff.
Of course people want to use you.
Good!
My friends think it's their appointed duty.
They keep trying to tell me, hey, all you want to do is use me.
But my answer to all that use me stuff, I want to spread the news, that if it feels this good getting used, you just keep on using me, until you use me up.
Yes, yes, yes.
Of course you're going to be used.
You use people and people use you.
Mutual benefit.
Trade to mutual advantage.
Well, when I go in and I buy a candy bar, I'm just being used for my money.
Well, when I sell that candy bar, I'm just being used for my candy.
Well, do you not want your boyfriend or husband to benefit from being with you?
Do you not want No, we watch to hear Steph singing.
I'm watching for Steph's traps.
Logic traps.
Yes.
Yes.
People are going to use you for their own happiness.
Do you think that when I wake up in the morning with my wife, do I want her to be happy that we're together?
Of course.
Do I want her to use me for her own happiness?
I absolutely do.
I absolutely do.
I think the problem is that I'm used to being around selfish people who just take and don't give anything back.
Oh, that's not true.
That's not true.
That's not true.
So what you're saying is that you're around selfish people and they give you no benefit.
That is false.
You go straight to go.
You do not collect $200.
You actually, in fact, can skate past go.
And Baltic and go to jail because that is absolutely completely and totally false.
You benefit from being around selfish people.
How do I know that?
Because you're around selfish people.
Assuming you're not in prison, you are choosing to have selfish people in your life which means you gain a benefit.
They're called secondary gains.
You are around selfish people because why?
Because you gain a benefit.
You get to feel like a victim.
You get to complain.
You get to recreate your childhood.
You get to not have to try and exchange value with healthy people who don't use you.
You are using them!
You are using them for victimhood!
Everything is an exchange!
Everything is an exchange and it means that you've been around people who claim to be victims when what they're trading is integrity and honesty for that sweet, sweet honey syrup called victimhood.
I'm so hard done by.
He doesn't care about me.
He just uses me.
He doesn't do anything around the house.
He this.
Okay, so...
You've got this lovely little violin of victimhood.
I'm not saying you, but people as a whole.
Oh, this lovely violin.
Don't ever tell me voluntary relationships are not mutually beneficial.
They are.
You get to feel like a victim.
You get to recreate your childhood.
You get to not have to be assertive.
You get to not have to cross the desert from selfish people to generous people.
And you get a secondary gain.
Nope.
I won't take it.
I won't listen to it.
I really can't stand all this self-pity and people who, well, I just have all these people around me who, who, who, who victimize me.
It's like, no, you're victimizing them as well.
You're victimizing them.
Bye bye.
So what you're saying is that there are people around who exploit you.
Well, you're exploiting them too.
By letting them exploit you, you're getting your revenge.
By making them worse.
People love to complain about how they have bad friends.
I had a friend who was learning guitar who tuned it an octave too high and it was like, and I was like, you're going to take an eye out with that F string.
You're going to get all kinds of King Lear on that stuff.
Right.
And so it was like my cherry orchard ding into silver string that just breaks.
And I was just like, you chose him.
You chose him.
You chose him.
Now, if it's your family and you're a kid... I mean, this is for adults, right?
But if you're... If it's... Hey, it's huge sympathies.
Yeah, that's a good point.
I think this was true in the past.
I'm not around them anymore.
Currently trying to cross the desert, but the victim part is still there, to be honest.
Yes, for sure.
Sweet, sweet secondary gains of, oh, I was but so wronged by the people around me that I chose in my life.
I was but so wronged.
It was just awful, the wrongedness that was done unto me.
And it's like, OK, I get it.
So your parents exploited you.
You got used to being exploited.
And rather than change that as an adult, you thought you'd continue the same sick pattern because it feels familiar.
That is very tragic, but it still is a secondary gain.
And the problem is that people who complain about being victimized are warning you of what?
People who say, my friends exploit me, people victimize me, they're selfish.
People who feel like victims are promising to do what?
What are they innately giving themselves permission to do?
What are they promising you in a way that they will do?
I am such a victim.
I'm so exploited.
I'm so mad.
I'm so exploited.
Well, they are, of course, promising to exploit others.
Right.
In the same way, if somebody says, uh, that guy over there stole my bike.
I'm going to get it back.
Well, he's saying he's willing to use violence to get his bike back.
So, victims switch to bullies like that.
Victims switch to bullies in the same way that a guy who's peaceful, and I'm not saying it's morally equivalent, a guy who's peaceful will use violence if violence is used against him.
So people who stay around those who exploit them are giving themselves permission to exploit back and say, oh, I'm just exploiting back.
And they're setting up this whole world, well, you're either the victim or the exploiter, and I've had it with being the victim.
And so there's just this not, they're not in a win-win situation or environment, right?
All right, let's see if there are any other questions, because I could do a wee rant.
Should I give you... I'll put this out on some social media review, but I don't know if it's a troll.
It's probably a troll, but it nonetheless, it is very funny.
It is a Tinder match.
Alyssa, 28.
My perfect Tinder match is a man who is really trusting and healthy, looking for a non-smoker.
No alcohol or drugs that may damage the liver.
Must have both kidneys.
Type O blood is a plus.
Somebody who posted this was like, oh no, bro's gonna wake up in a bucket of ice, or he's gonna wake up in a tub of ice with a note saying you better start dialysis now.
Oh man, that was something.
That was something.
So have you seen that there seem to be, this is maybe a new phenomenon, maybe it's just
new to me.
see a Steph push-up video for real for real.
You mean push-up bra?
Thank you for the tip.
So apparently there's this thing online, I've only recently heard it, but apparently there's this thing online where scantily dressed women dance in a group.
Have you, I think this is a new thing, but have you have you heard of this?
I guess it's kind of a new trend where women in tights and crop tops dance.
Mostly together.
I guess occasionally it's one-on-one.
But have you heard of this thing at all?
And it is really, really something.
And when these women do their dancing, and I saw one that was posted, it was a bunch of Taylor Swift fans, the Swifties, and it was like, when you're in New York and you've just finished your outdoor yoga and you're dancing around a Taylor Swift because you've just made 200 new best friends forever, And it's all these women dancing around in their very tight leotards and crop tops and they have headphones on and you can't hear the music but they're all dancing and dancing and dancing and like the Red Sea!
Like the Red Sea it parts human opinion and I'm here as always to bring people to unite people.
If there's one thing that I'm known for it is being A uniter.
It is being a uniter.
So I'm here to bring people together because what happens is men, a lot of men, get annoyed at these videos.
These women are dancing, they say it's cringe, they say it's annoying, they say it's embarrassing, they say it's groupthink and so on and they just get grumpy about These women, dancing and chanting and giggling and all of that, right?
They get annoyed.
They get grumpy.
Walter Matthau style.
Now, but, but, you see, on the other side, and this is usually the female side of things, what happens is... Yeah, Gen Z, Boston and Minnie, all that stuff, right?
So, what happens is, though, the men say, this is cringe-embarrassing and dumb, and the women say, Like, what kind of grouchy pants do you have to be in order to, like, be upset and mad just because women are having a little fun?
Like, oh my god, women apparently aren't allowed to have fun anymore.
It's just fun, guys.
It's just fun.
Oh my gosh.
It's really, really something else.
It's really, really something else.
And I'm gonna see if I can get you the video.
Or at least, at least one of them.
At least one of them.
So let me see here.
I think I have the video.
I think I have the video.
Gen Z bus anime.
Alright, where is it now?
Oh lord, when did I save it?
I must have saved it recently.
Page, page, page, page, page, page, page.
Oh no.
I just can't find it.
Let me see if I can find it.
I don't want to search the bookmarks.
Uh, yoga, party, swifties.
Like I haven't typed this in a million times already.
Just this afternoon.
Search for Yoga Party Swifties.
I'm sure I can find it.
Oh no.
Media.
Give it to me.
Oh god.
I don't want your stinking gifts!
Alright...
Swi- Oh!
Switfi- Switfities!
My bad. My bad. My bad.
Sweet to fizz.
Oh, come on.
You want to give it to me?
You know all these things where you find something and then just like, what could I possibly find it?
How could I possibly find it again?
Uh, yoga party.
New York.
Best.
Uh, friends?
I think it was New York.
Uh, and maybe headphones.
All right.
I'll try.
I won't, I won't do this too long, but we'll just see if we can find it.
What the hell?
Latest?
Maybe it's the latest.
Maybe it's under the latest.
Like latest trend.
Come on.
You can switch tabs.
I feel, I feel you can.
All right.
I think it is.
Uh, maybe it's just Swift.
Oh, I just want to do it.
I'm going to go down this rabbit hole.
Okay.
I'm going to have to stop.
I must stop.
I must stop.
Uh, oh, it doesn't like headphones.
I don't think I will find it.
Uh.
Uh, dancing.
Okay.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
The obsession continues.
The obsession continues.
Unfortunately, I put yoga in, which means I'm going to get a bunch of other stuff.
All right.
Well, I'll do it in, um, how to sculpt a sexy yoga core in seven minutes.
I'll be back in about seven minutes.
Um, just a few minutes, honey.
What was it, uh, my wife, uh, she really, really ran to get a, uh, pickleball, a shot of mine the other day, and I was like, hey, I haven't seen you lunch like that since the honeymoon.
All right.
So, oh, did you find it?
Oh gosh.
Did somebody find it for me?
Ah, yes.
There we go.
Thank you.
Uh, you close out at sunset deep house yoga event singing Taylor Swift with 200 new girlfriends.
Right.
And this has.
Yeah.
So, uh, it is, uh, what do the women say, right?
God forbid some girl's listening to music and having fun.
Y'all are the mentally ill here for hating fun, actually.
Why do you hate seeing women have fun?
Why is it people having fun and listening to music triggering you that much?
Like, that's the mental illness we're all witnessing.
You seem like you have a small dick.
Hey!
It's just chilly.
Um, as a lover of yoga pants, I see nothing wrong here.
They're probably having more fun than 99% of people on Twitter sitting alone at home making fun of them.
Right?
So this is the difference, right?
This is the difference.
So you've seen it, right?
You've seen it.
Yeah, we got it.
Thanks.
All right.
So why?
Why?
What?
Why?
What is happening?
freedomain.com slash donate.
That's what's not happening tonight.
But I'm sure it will be almost any moment.
Almost any moment now.
freedomain.com slash donate.
All right.
So why are people getting so mad?
Why are the men getting annoyed and the women getting contemptuous?
Right?
Because if men say that's annoying, In general, the glorious modern woman phenomenon, if a man says, this behavior is annoying, the women do not say, oh, that's interesting, because I'm all about feelings, I'm all about sensitivity, I'm so empathetic!
Right?
So, tell me more, what do you think is bothering you, and help me understand your perspective.
No, it's just like, you have a small penis energy, and you just hate seeing women having fun, because you're patriarchal.
Right?
It really is not.
Particularly empathetic.
So, ladies, not all of the ladies, none of the ladies here I'm sure, but ladies as a whole, it's not really that men hate seeing women having fun.
See, if we didn't like seeing women having fun, you wouldn't have any air conditioning because we don't really care.
You wouldn't have any fridges or freezers, cause we don't really care.
All that running water shit and shelter and all of that, it's not really men.
Have you seen what men live in?
We're happy with a cave and a flip-flop.
One, not even two, just one, cause we can hop.
So we love to see you happy and having fun.
That's what civilization is for.
That's why there are cities and not tree houses because I would frankly much rather live in a tree house but apparently peeing into the tree canopy is not what women consider attractive.
So, fine, we'll spend 300 years carving a city out of the wilderness.
Fine.
Okay, so we love for women to be happy.
So, what do you think is going on when we see 200 scantily clad women dancing away without a man around?
Well, we see that you think you don't need men.
Because there aren't any men there.
Now, again, I understand that women do things on their own.
They go deep in the woods.
They form covens and worship Moloch.
But seeing a bunch of women all dancing around without any men around gives men the impression that you think you don't need men.
Now, I understand that your generally non-empathetic response will be like, So, because women are having fun on their own, it makes you feel insecure because we're not chasing you and we're just self-sufficient and you're just insecure.
You feel unneeded.
Okay, no, it's not that.
It's not that.
See, ladies, when you think that you don't need men, You tend to not date much.
You tend to not get married much.
You tend to not have pair-bonded marriages.
You tend not to have children.
Now, if you all don't have children, the entire four billion year march to humans' giant brains has been sort of pointless.
Well, has it, right?
So, if you say that you don't need men, what that means is that you won't work any tough jobs.
Because if a woman, say, does a lot of manual labor to support the infrastructure, you know, she pours tar, she builds roads in another way, she constructs sewage tunnels, she builds buildings, she nails roofs, she does all of the hard work that we almost never see women doing, then they would say, Damn!
We need some men!
Holy crap!
This is really tough!
This is really hard!
This is really brutal!
We really need some men!
When they say they don't need men, it means that they have absolutely zero fucking intention of doing any of the tough work in society.
And they will in fact be in their leotards dancing on a New York rooftop to Taylor Swift.
The rooftop that men built.
On technology that transmits the Taylor Swift songs that men built.
In a city that men built using electricity that men in general build and transmit.
So they're standing on all of the work that men build saying we don't need men.
So that's a little odd.
What that means is that women don't have any appreciation for the comforts that almost exclusively male workers bring to bear to build civilization.
Right?
So if women say we don't need men, they're saying we have no appreciation for the massive amount of work that men do to build and maintain the civilization that gives women such comfort and security and safety and health.
So when women are having a huge amount of fun all on their own, which is fine, I mean totally fine.
When women are having a whole bunch of fun all on their own and it's happening not just one time but it's happening a lot, then men are a little concerned that women are getting the impression that they don't need men.
Now when women say they don't need men, What they never seem to say is, we're boycotting men's taxes.
They never really seem to quite get around to that aspect of things.
We don't need men.
Okay, so if you don't need men, then why do you take twice the value out of the government than you pay in taxes?
And why do men, in general, get half the value out of the government than we pay in taxes?
So if you don't need men, why do you need twice the taxes from us than you pay?
That seems to me that's needing men.
In other words, to put it another way, if women had a female government and men had a male government, And the women government could not borrow, could not print money, and neither could the male government.
And the women government could only pay women benefits to the degree to which women paid taxes into the women government, the female government.
We've got the MG and the FG, the male government, the female government.
The FG can only provide benefits to women to the degree that women pay taxes to the female government.
Well, almost all the social support systems would completely collapse in about three months.
In fact, they'd never get started to begin with.
So, women, this is off the top of my head, but it's something like women pay $700,000 in taxes but take $1.4 million in benefits, men pay $1.4 million in benefits and take $700,000.
1.4 million in benefits and take 700,000.
1.4 million in taxes and take 700,000 in benefits. So I think it would be nice
once in a while if women said, hey guys thank you so much for working 10 to 15 years of your life just to pay taxes
for our benefits, our extra health care, the child care stuff, old age pensions
because we live longer
and so on, right? Thank you. Thank you guys.
We really appreciate it. It's a huge, it's the biggest transfer of
wealth in human history from males to females through the power of the state.
Peace.
you Hit me with a why if you've ever ever
heard a woman ever, public private doesn't matter, have you ever heard a
woman thank men as a whole for paying so much in taxes so that women can get all
these government benefits?
Just out of curiosity have you ever heard that?
Have you ever seen an article saying, thanks men for providing all of this money to provide for our benefits?
Nope.
So when women dancing around on all of the structures and using the technology and buildings and electricity that men built and they say basically we don't need men it's alarming.
It's alarming to men because when people are exploited and never thanked they feel like slaves!
When people are exploited and never appreciated, they feel like slaves.
Because this is the funny thing, right?
Is that a lot of women will say, and there's lots of exceptions to all of this, we're just talking about the general trends and why some people are upset.
Is that a lot of women will say, well you just don't show me enough appreciation.
You know, I cook and I clean and I do this and that, you just don't show me any appreciation.
It's like we're literally working 10 to 15 years of our life as tax and debt slaves to female needs.
I think that's a little more important than not praising you every night you make a tureen of soup.
and really you all got to read my novel The Present.
Now, let me ask you a sort of a very personal question.
Answer, of course, if you like or if you don't like.
But let me ask you a very personal question.
So, on a scale from 1 to 100, 1 being it doesn't bother you at all, 100 being you freak out about it on a regular basis, how worried are you about the sustainability of our entire fucking civilization?
How worried are you about whether all the stuff that we've built can be sustained in your lifetime?
Let's just say in your lifetime.
It might be your kid's lifetime if you have kids.
How worried are you about the continuance of human civilization which in our neck of the woods would be called Western civilization.
So one, doesn't bother you, don't even think about it.
A hundred, freaking out on a regular basis.
What is your number?
We got 90 from one person.
I think about it every day.
Honestly, I think about it every day.
98, very very worried.
80, 85, 101, 95, because 40, 45, a thousand it's all coming down around 20,
33, 89, 95, 66. Okay so we've got almost nobody below 50, one or two people in the
40s.
So You
There is a tension that we have about society falling apart.
I'm not saying we shouldn't have any fun.
I do have fun.
I'm not saying we shouldn't have any fun.
But shit's getting kind of dark out there and it doesn't look like the light is about to come back anytime soon.
And the people who don't worry as much are the people without children.
Because you'll do anything to keep your children safe, but you cannot control the direction directly the society is going.
So this, like, chunsy, bossy, cinnamony, you know, all of this giggly, dancy, vapid shit.
Like, I'm sorry, it's just...
Where...
is these women's anxiety about the future of society?
Do they not know?
Do they not care?
Does it not register?
Does it not matter?
At all?
Somebody says worried?
No.
Certain it's going to collapse, not sure when, but I would be shocked if I'm here in 30 years, so 50%.
So you think society's gonna end in its current form in 30 years but you're not worried.
Oh, so you're older.
Okay, I guess you don't have kids.
Okay.
That doesn't count too much then.
So society's falling apart in part because of a lack of seriousness.
A lack of capacity to handle negative information.
So there's Taylor Swift dancing on the rooftop, 200 new besties, It's just unsettling as hell for men because we are concerned about the direction of society.
We're concerned about the debt.
We're concerned about the loss of freedoms.
You know, only original people really care about free speech because the NPCs have their
pre-scripted nonsense and they never shock anyone or surprise anyone or say anything
controversial so why do they care?
So when it comes to I'm here to shake my ass in leotard and show how cool I am, it really
does feel, I know that Nero didn't do this because the violin was much later, but it
feels like fiddling while Rome burns at least.
The little orchestra on the tilting deck of the Titanic had the good grace to know they
were going down with the ship.
It's just a little bit of a shame.
So again, I'm not saying don't have fun, but when all you see, when a lot of what you see is women doing these silly dances and not having seemingly a care or concern in the world, it just feels weird.
It starts to look to me, honestly I'm not kidding about this, it starts to look mentally ill.
Like someone in the middle of a plague, dancing away in the town square.
It's so dissociated.
It's so weird.
It's so unreality-based that it feels creepy.
It feels so disconnected from the trajectory.
It's like seeing an old woman in an old wedding gown down in the bowels of the Titanic saying, well, I hope that my dance card is going to be filled by young gentlemen.
Call us tonight!
and it's like the ship is going down where did it all go wrong Steph
Well, it went wrong when society substituted violence for reason.
We have a society founded on violence.
And we reject reason.
The moment that people say that violence is superior to reason, this course is set.
So when society falls apart, whose responsibility is it?
You know, one of the most bitter memes that you'll see in the world ever, one of the most bitter memes you'll see, is a bunch of guys in war saying, me and the boys in Taiwan, because Taylor Swift convinced a lot of young girls to vote for Kamala.
Me and the boys in Taiwan at war because Taylor Swift convinced a lot of girls,
or women, to vote for a warmongering Kamala.
And if the women get all the emotional sustenance they need from dancing with each other,
then they will be able to be a better version of themselves.
you you
There are no families.
There's no birth rate.
And the women go crazy.
Because here's the thing.
I see on social media a lot of woo girl, Gen Z boss in a mini, dancing with my 200 new besties at the yoga top, Taylor Swift party and so on.
I see a lot of that stuff.
But women are going mental as a whole.
Women are going mental as a whole.
you I mean, is it half of liberal women have a diagnosed mental illness?
Right?
Every year of the modern world has women.
you becoming more and more and more and more unhappy.
White liberal women, white women over 40, it's happening to non-white communities as well.
But women are becoming more and more unhappy and it seems that they're advertising this weird dissociated manic stuff more and more and more.
Like there are all these rush weeks for sororities where they do on these crazy dances and it's all very hysterical and grinning and it's like But society is fucking falling apart.
And when things fall apart, who gets drafted?
Bye.
Dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing, Gen Z boss, anime!
Who gets drafted?
Who has to fix it?
And so it's a lack of compassion for men.
I mean, Hillary Clinton was the war candidate.
She wanted to start, like, three wars.
Donald Trump is the peace candidate.
So all the women voting for Hillary, you know that meme, which is like, mom, this is a meme from, I think, 2019.
The worried young man who's like, mom, but, you know, I'm really worried about Hillary starting a war.
It's like, yes, but I want to have a female president.
So suck it up.
It's this lack of compassion for men.
because the women will complain and the men will be forced to fix things
and it's really scary Right?
And so I think some of the tension and I'm not trying to explain all men's reactions.
I'm not even trying to explain my reactions directly because remember I live with two absolutely wonderful females whom I'm incredibly blessed to have in my life.
So I'm not trying to explain all men's reactions.
But There was this woman who was saying, you know, we're just not going to have children because men suck.
We're just not happy about it.
We're not going to have children.
We're going to travel.
We're going to have fun.
Okay, so who's going to take care of you when you're old?
Men are going to be forced to pay for it.
Who's going to take care of your government pension when you get old?
There's no kids.
men are going to be forced to pay for it.
You know, and if a bunch of cultures all end up rubbing noses together, maybe there'll be conflict.
Men are going to have to fight that.
And when there's this vibe, this sort of giddy, collectivist, Borg-like, ass-shaking, lululemon
vibe of manic happiness and a complete blindness to the disasters underfoot, I think there's
a concern that...
.
you Men say, okay, if you don't need men, then you're going to make a lot of mistakes, you're not going to save money, you're going to pursue useless education, you're going to travel, you're going to sleep around, you might get sick from STDs, you're going to have unwanted pregnancies, you're going to have abortions, you're going to be unable to pair bond, and then you're going to go crazy.
And, as we know, one of the biggest voting blocks for the left is single women.
So I think, at a very gut level, and I'm not saying this is conscious, but I think at a very gut level, when you see this kind of females turning to females, don't need men, don't notice any dangers, don't notice any problems, dance, dance, dance, mania, mania, mania, combined with increased antidepressant use and anxiety and depression and misery, then the women stay single.
And what do single women do?
They vote you into communism!
Or leftism.
It's a little dangerous, isn't it?
for men for the men who want free speech for the men who want
property rights who want limited government who want freedoms
The single women vote pretty hard left.
So I think a lot of men are looking at this stuff and seeing a giant voting bloc
that may help increase tyranny.
Bye.
And of course we can't have any of those conversations because you're just a hater with a small penis who just can't stand to see women having fun.
It's really not that.
I love seeing women have fun, most men do.
Give me a 1 to 10, how close do you think this is, this analysis is?
I was thinking about it literally for the last week and I wanted to make sure I got it somewhat correct.
How much did I get?
How much did I miss?
give me a Wanda Tanner if you want me to fix on anything I'd appreciate that too.
Somebody says I recently saw a woman who was uploading videos of herself doing dances in tight clothes.
Then when men made comments about her, she got all upset.
Sure.
Well, I mean, a lot of people, not just women, but a lot of people want attention.
And then when they get the attention, they feel neglected.
Because they're not being seen for who they are deep down and all that, right?
People say, 11, 10, 8, 10, 10.
Well, thanks.
Because I find, I'm genuinely curious as to, I mean, I actually, I quite like dance videos myself.
I really do.
I think that they're a lot of fun.
And even though one of the dance videos groups appeared to be caught up in a cult or something like that, but I actually really like dance videos.
I think that they're a lot of fun.
I did a lot of dancing myself when I was younger, spent, I don't know, I can't even tell you how many thousands of hours in nightclubs.
Shakin' my ass, the note is fast, some mistakes were built to last.
So, and yeah, I dance around the house with my wife from time to time and embarrass my daughter and so I really do.
Yeah, dancing with my set boooove.
And of course, I can't imagine a lot of men in tights dancing around with shirtless and all of that.
I just don't think that would be.
Maybe just commenting this is mental illness is not the best way to communicate our worry.
And I agree with referring to the post title.
So, I agree.
And I don't know that the men are really understanding this.
Why they're upset.
Right?
I don't know why.
It's not just haters though.
Men want to be needed by women.
This is what motivates us a lot, right?
That's why we're men, is to be needed by women.
And of course there has been a lot of pretty nasty propaganda to say to women, don't need men.
But I think most men, when we see women claiming to not need men, all we see is deferred need.
All we see is deferred need with interest.
Right?
I don't need no man.
It's like, well, then my taxes are just going to go up even more later.
later.
The taxes are just going to go up more.
Because the women aren't saying in general, they're not saying, well we don't need any
men so we better work 60-70 hours a week to make sure we save enough for retirement because
two can live as cheaply as one so we're not going to save all that money, we're not going
to rely on her husband's life insurance because he would probably die earlier.
We're not going to rely on our husband's life insurance to take care of our older years.
We're not going to have kids.
We're not going to save money.
And what does that mean?
That means that just men are going to get taxed into fucking Adams down the road, to the point where there is no road.
That the giant maw of female economic need is just going to swallow society whole.
So I think when men see, oh, women don't need men, it's just like, oh, but you will.
And it's just, you're going to need men in 20 years with interest.
You're going to need men in 40 years but the taxes are going to be triple and we aren't going to have any kids.
So I'm going to have to pay for you but I don't even get kids.
All the money that could have gone to us having a family is going to go through the government who's going to keep most of it and hand pittances to you while I get taxed to fucking death.
It's just very sad.
And I say this, you know, with absolute great affection for women.
It's not female nature that's a problem.
It's women plus the state.
Just as men plus the state produces fascism, women plus the state in general produces communism.
And it's brutal either way.
So this is nothing negative towards women.
I absolutely adore women, but this... I'm trying to sort of understand why men get annoyed and why My girlfriend and I were talking about kids and marriage and called it off because I wanted a traditional family and to have her raise kids.
She was too independent to do that.
I moved out shortly after that.
I'm so sorry and it's really sad because of course she's going to look back and say I mean nobody's independent.
I'm dependent upon you the listeners.
I'm dependent upon platforms and internet and computers and I'm dependent upon the electricity for my lights and to empower my technology and I'm dependent upon doctors and I'm dependent upon farmers.
Everybody's dependent.
This idea you can be independent is completely bizarre to me.
I'm so sorry about that.
Remember commenting on an anti-natalist video, the women were so bitter and combative.
Yeah, well when you end up with that kind of dysfunction I think it's fairly safe to say that you've just very much gone, you've convinced people to go against their nature and the fact that we can go against their nature is good.
It means that we can get angry but we don't just have duels, right?
So the fact that we can go against their nature is good but man, can you ever actually program people to do the opposite of that which is healthy and good for them as a whole.
Are the last donations for the end of the show?
Really, you did work pretty hard on this one.
I'll just be honest, I don't just sail in.
I got a whole list of things here that I wanted to talk about and I think I did a pretty good job of getting it all across and if it does help you understand the world as a whole.
I find conflict very interesting and I'm always trying to get to the root of why people are bothered about stuff and so on, right?
And I think women have a bit of an avoidance of negative stimuli when they're young and so they want to dance and not think about The problems in society and then when men get annoyed they get dangerously close to remembering about the problems in society which would cause them to crater and therefore they have to stay on the surface because they stay on the surface or they go right to the bottom of unhappiness and I don't know that there's much in between for some women.
