The video aint visible bro 😭

Horseshoe theory is a load of bollocks that so called "moderates" use to hide their own extreme positions.

People from different backgrounds often wind up discovering they have the same grievances against their existing society, though for different reasons. Some atheists are discovering that traditional religious people have a legitimate point of view about the harms caused by sexual freedom, for example, though the atheists come to this realization through social experience and not religious indoctrination.

Ironically one of Ayn Rand's own inlaws back in the Soviet Union was an accomplished & respected inventor. The Soviet government gave him and his wife (Rand's sister) bonuses & privileges in recognition of his efforts. This reality is just about the exact opposite of the way Rand imagined in her novels how collectivist systems treat inventors.

Descartes is remembered now as an otherworldly nerd who worried that an evil demon had constructed what he perceived as reality. But in real life he was a kind of gentleman soldier in sevice to a Dutch nobleman who saw combat, he dissected cow carcasses to better understand anatomy, and he had a girlfriend, a Dutch servant girl who bore him an illegitimate daughter; the little girl unfortunately died young. Descartes wasn't just living in his head, in other words. He had a life in the real world.

Rand's theorizing about love doesn't do incels any good. It's interesting in _Atlas Shrugged_ that most of the men who join Galt's strike mysteriously lack women in their lives.

almost like theory and reality are two different things

Status is absolutely about rejecting the view of others. You all can't see my house, but it's the largest in the tri-state area. It wasn't on purpose. I didn't build it, but there's something bonkers about having a hidden giant house. Lots of love, From Uruguay.

So many homeless snobs around these days.

As a collective humanity I think its consensus that we would like more transparency from the government and elites. Will we get it? We have a power structure to maintain order, so does information actually need to be withheld too?

wait a minute this sounds familiar oh.. right that ai thing again 😂😂😂

status is parallel to upward mobility.

Spending time and paying attention is a pursuit of value and top of my personal focus. Money has utility, absolutely. However I very much appreciate the pursuit of being in the moment enjoying the gift of now. Living within my means with enough to be sheltered and not starving, however the other part is entertainment or fun.... My own quiet restructuring of my mental understanding and learning to release the program of society and writing my own personal book on life. Keeping myself in check when the routine offtrack, or regression to old thinking patterns become noticed. Happy to humble my own personal criticism for the sake of how I feel and how I experience my own life. Others need not care or listen, but always happy to share when anyone is genuine about contributing and absorbing mutually with respect and goal of understanding all sides of any given topic. ❤

For generations both atheists & Christians argued that removing god beliefs from the culture would result in a sexual utopia, only the Christians thought that was a bad thing. Apparently no one anticipated the real outcome, where a minority of men would get most of the sex, while a growing proportion of the male population would end up sexually evicted, because women find most men sexually yucky. In fact I've wondered if women traditionally used Christian beliefs as a cover for rejecting the men they weren't attracted to any way: God forbids fornication & all that. At least a woman's religious rejection avoids naming the real reason, and it spares the rejected man's feelings.

Incels wish they had "promiscuous" men's problems.

Which AI tool did you use to make this?

Ying Yang. Add our unique awareness of the inescapable finality of life. The conclusion that Thanatos is a driving psychological factor isn't that difficult.

This Sounds so AI

Why do all the women in the thumbnail only have one leg? 😂

The question may be how do you identify a Dagney? Are Randian people obvious? Is it easier to identify a male of the kind we would want? (There is no such thing as a 24 minute deep dive. Silly script.)

Oh no, if you give it form it will travel, Ayn Rand said herself a women cannot be president or nations will burn.... 1. Sheikh Hasina Wajed 2009 - PM of Bangladesh -alleged authoritarianism, public protests that nearly took the country 2. Katrín Jakobsdóttir 2017 - PM of Iceland - economic inequality 3.Angela Merkel Chancellor of Germany 2021 - Opened the borders and started the Illegal immigration crisis that is the cause of UK crisis...(which almost took US but trump fixed it now) Need I go on? I have many more.... I've also studied Ayn Rand and studied many other philosophers, I leave with this warning " If you perpetuate this lie the world will burn"

Ironically I would vote for Ayn Rand.

AI don't know shit about subtext. Shut up about the beauty of discussion and get to the point.

This feels like reading AI’s negotiate a topic.

What podcast is this?

Objectivism is a joke of a philosophy, Friedmanite economics owes alot to Objectivism and look how well that turned out. Massive wealth disparity, environmental devastation and individual alienation. The social contract exists for a reason, we should judge a society based on how it treats its most disenfrancised groups. Right wing libertarian accelerationists like Musk stan Rand and her toxic ideology. All her ancaps simps need to touch grass and stop banging on about individual sovreignity. Rand was ultimately a hypocrite, she rallied against the welfare state yet received social security in old age Your biases are clearly on display here

Notebook LM

Speaking of Rand's life as an immigrant's success story, it's funny how no one talks about Karl Marx's and his BFF Friedrich Engels's lives in the context of their experiences as immigrants. They both moved from the Continent to England circa 1850, and they spent the rest of their lives there. It's like we're not supposed to notice that they were examples of immigrants who were really socially damaging in the long run. That would conflict with our misrulers' current gaslighting about the wonders of flooding our country with derelicts from the world's least competent places.

The online Rand obsessives have been demonizing "tribalism" a lot lately, which makes me wonder if they don't know any Native Americans. I have cousins in one branch of my family who are members of the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma through their father. (Their mother & my mother are sisters, and we're about the whitest people in the country.) And here in Arizona I work with a young Navajo woman. These people's tribal identities in no way detract from their humanity. In fact you would expect that outcome, because man is inherently tribal, not radically individualistic according to Rand's fantasy philosophy.

This sounds AI generated.

Huray, first comment!

Sex Power Money R?????? 🙏💢⌚

I view Ayn Rand as a kind of independently working humanist philosopher who was thinking about the problems of living in the post-god world Nietzsche had recognized in the 1880's. Her attempted solutions to these problems don't necessarily succeed, but she was thinking about the right ones.

First veiwer 🥳. I finally did it yusssss. Is this AI? Or AI scripted. It seems eerily precise.

Keep up the content. Thank you.

Is this podcast AI generated?

Great talk! 👏👏👏👏

Thank you for your contribution

Dancing around the outside but Ithink we can we or US or the world can get past this .Treashered thoughts to you two

Okay this is good

Societies* Gods* People lump into groups, form group identities, groups identify with other groups in common interest, and it's essentially expressed as a sort of rhetorical creature that is composed of the common themes threading across the minds of the individuals. This little light of mine-- Well, it can shine, but only as bright as a person allows. A dim bulb, there's a lot less to manage, but then you don't see anything coming until it's right in your face, so the more unexpected, the more reactive, the less contemplative, imaginative, understanding, etc, etc. For some reason, a lot of people prefer the dim bulb. "Ignorance is bliss". But they fuel their own fears of what might go on in the dark. It's almost a sort of cycle of addiction.

Sooo nice

Curious you guys keep mentoning 'your source'.. what or who is the source you are referring to?

The internet is dead and AI/Bots have killed it

So Gross

The Uncanny Valley is REAL!

It's weird listening to regular people imitate professional liars. It's like seeing a baby smoking a cigarette.

Odin is cool
