I don’t think it’s that common for $100m+ outright scams to exist. Everyone hears about SBF, Theranos etc but the idea all of Wall St is just a scam is just ignorance because people don’t understand how the financial system works

@Leo Gura I remember his 2012 era videos he actually comes off as way cooler than he does now. He’s just so over the top and aggressive at this point

@Leo Gura Is he even that bad looking? He’s no Brad Pitt but he’s not terrible. Can’t imagine it being such a deal breaker considering his confidence, status and money. That John Anthony guy said his lay count was only 50, which is actually very low for someone who’s devoted his life to getting laid.

Here’s a good video on the evidence of tolerance build up. Seems like there’s a dogma out there against stimulant medication

@Leo Gura I feel like woke has actually diverged in a lot of ways to hippie culture. Hippies like RFK are anti vax wheras woke people are staunchly pro vax

If that’s true then why’d they give the Sinai back to Egypt in 1979 in exchange for a peace deal? Regarding the Westbank while there are elements that definitely want the land, they didn’t come into possession of that land until Jordan attacked them in 1967 so they took it from them (Israel warned Jordan not to join the war and we won’t attack them).

The current government hasn’t been particularly interested in peace. But also, a two state solution was offered in 2000 and rejected by the Palestinians with no counteroffer and Israel got the second intifada instead. Then they withdraw from Gaza in 2005 and get nothing but rockets from an Islamist group. Of course that’s gonna shift Israel to the right.

Hamas want to end Israel. What makes you think they’d stop fighting if they were given a state? You’re putting too much stock in a couple of public statements. Although I agree Likud doesn’t want a two state solution either and they never have. No one is blameless here.

@Leo Gura as long as Hamas are in power, peace will never happen? Should they not be removed?

What if Russia would already be in the Baltics or Poland by now, if it weren’t for NATO expansion? The causality could be just as easily reversed

US/NATO/UN intervention might be the only way. Get Israel to uproot the settlements and basically force a two state solution

@Leo Gura It would be useful to know what percentage of the Palestinian population wants a two state solution and what percentage want to wipe out Israel.

Israeli occupation not allowing a Palestinian state with a military etc helps fuel terrorism. However now can they be trusted with the rights of a full state? Becomes a vicious catch 22 that I don’t know how gets solved

We finally got out of the war on terror era, and now right back there we are

The debate between Cenk and the Jewish guy was quite good
