Epikur

I am not shure but maybe his channel was dying because YT algorithm was treating him "unfair" As he learned acting begging can be seen as a marketing tool I guess. I think he has the ability to cry on command too. Yes maybe he didn't had much to say anyway. He doubled down as a payback and nothing new coming and he burned bridges in the process.

In theory maybe. Practically conservatives make the babies as far as I can see. The girls who do gender studies are not the first in line in that regard. Better to be seen in developing countries. The more conservative they are the more babies they make. The whites may have spiraled up but babywise they spiraled down.

@StarStruck Good find. He makes me guilty not donating him. I thought he was an established entrepreneur and saved money because of his intelligence and work ethic. I guess he needs more money for the big projects. He might have wanted to become the Elon Musk of Philosophy a Philosophy King.

It's reasonable. Otherwise you might go crazy dealing with people who have the opposite value system. People you feel are cruel. Nothing wrong with that.

You have other fields where to force equality creates more inequality. In the famous case of Jordan Peterson where he pointed out that in Sweden women tend to work more in classic women jobs.

I have the feeling most guys here don't have kids. If you would have kids do you think you might become a tiny bit less lefty? Having skin in the game might change some perspectives.

@StarStruck I would like him to have a discussion with Caleb Maupin. Caleb is a soft tanky. He had quite a fight with Vaush in his debate. Stefan was very civil with Vaush in their debate actually. Stefan can be very nice if he is in the mood. Actually Stefan had planned to have a discussion with a lefty professor but he got banned. I would have liked to see that.

@Zak Leo shifted a bit to the right. I blame it on the right wing guys on the forum

I think it is good that he doesn't go to extreme with that. It makes him vulnerable and become a target. That job can be easily made by some members in the forum.

You as a psychologist may have an idea: The strong part of the progressives is that they are open for new things. Do you think of anything that looks promising for a better environment for people? I am thinking about the rat experiment where the rat does not become drug addict if it has an interesting playground in the cage. There was alot of hype with gamification. Maybe it may come slowly. Some apps are pretty nice already. What do you think of that?

That is not a good example. He calls them out in the forum. He posted stuff I would have been banned for many times for it by his moderators I guess

@Robi Steel What do you think of evolutional psychology?

@Yog Shadow work, taking care of blindspots has to be done:

For balance something from the hero Chris Cuomo from CNN:

What did I read here?

@Leo Gura Thanks the tan suit is unprecedented unpresidential

@Robi Steel I can handle some Tucker Carlson but Fox might be too much Though I like this one from Fox provided by Trevor Noah though Hillary would in this case be on the side of Fox maybe:

Funny thing their destiny is bound to Germany. Ironically Germany has got what Hitler wanted. Germany leads Europe but reluctantly. https://www.economist.com/europe/2020/06/27/germany-is-doomed-to-lead-europe

@Robi Steel I was in the past in allmystery german forum. I guess it's the only big general forum for years now. It's quite left leaning but that view gets more and more challenged but it's still too much. Later as my english got better I was like you more interested in the "real" liberal view also I wanted to know what the right wing is thinking. I feel like there are no "real" liberal forums out there. The right wing becomes boring after awhile. Here it's center left. I am ok with little bit utopia doesn't hurt always. It makes some good stories. I like science fiction and star trek.

Yes maybe

I don't really care to look it up for no reason at the moment. Maybe another time. It is like asking Jesus to look up what christianity is according to wikipedia. He wouldn't care I guess.

Well he just said his opinion. If you want arguments for it you can ask him. At least with wikipedia he is right. Wiki itself even gives the evidence. So it is a possibility that it is the case with dictionary.com. At the moment I am not interested to check it out but later on maybe I will do it. Or you try to prove that it's not the case like in wiki. Btw. it is not relevant for the discussion anyway imho.

It is not that important which political view somebody has but that he has the ability to switch perspectives and bring good arguments and can keep the emotions out. To be able to try to argue outcome independent unbiased and objectively as possible.

No I am trying to motivate to raise the level. Something like: Yes statistic is important Yes these numbers mean something Then you can talk about how to solve it
