  1. Yeah, I disagreed with all those. Lots of bad leftist ideas there which do not deserve normalization. Haha. Yeah, well, that was said jokingly. But seriously, even a weak man is still a man in the end. Just because a man is underdeveloped doesn't mean he ain't a man.
  2. They are a good example of being overly dismissive and cynical. It's more comedy than serious sensemaking.
  3. I don't think that's true. Well, I don't expect him to understand my work. He's in a very different line of work. And sure, he may easily see my as a cult leader. It's pretty obvious that anyone in the debunking business is gonna find it irresistible to criticize me. Because debunking is just a form rationalism, which my work challenges. As I said, there is a right and wrong way to do criticism. It has to be done very carefully. I have talked many times about how skepticism can be abused and weaponized. What you're talking here is the abuse of skepticism. That is a big trap.
  4. I don't think he has a problem with courses per se, he has a problem with grifty courses which offer little new content at huge fees and sleazy sales tactics. That sort of thing is a big problem within the get-rich-quick industry. Many newbies get outright scammed. Coffeezilla is one of the good debunkers out there. He does good research and the guys he targets are major sleazebags and conartists for the most part. They do serious fraud. So I got no issue with Coffeezilla.
  5. There is an important function for correcting misinformation and biased perspectives, but it's really hard to do it right, without falling into flip side self-deceptions. Many debunkers do it from an ideological place, trying to replace one ideology with another, or criticizing without offering constructive realistic solutions. Criticizing others is the oldest, easiest trap in the book. And social media rewards it far too much.
  6. Find jobs that pay well. You need to build up capital.
  7. Indeed. I answered all the gender questions as men cannot become women.
  8. You can just tell that Jesus guy is running the Evangelical script. They brainwash them to develop those born-again scripts and he's parrotting it out just like they trained him, like a good little monkey.
  9. Why are we assuming that number isn't juiced?
  10. Such ads are too sleazy and petty. Lincoln Project ads are like what political ads would be if Trump ran an ad company. There's no need to sink to this level to effectively criticize Trump.
  11. I found many of the questions to be quite sloppy, ambiguous, and oversimplified. Not a great test. I would like to see a test like this with much more nuanced and realistic policy choices.
  12. Someone needs to photoshop that with CONMAN.
  13. I plan to make a video about it. Although I won't go too much into the technical detail since it's not really necessary for our purposes.
  14. They can. By "count better" they mean their side wins, not mathematically more precise.
  15. Uncle Stalin is putting you on his Gulag list.
  16. It's time for Leo Coin. Gold chocolate coins minted by children in authentic North Korean labor camps. 99% real chocolate, 1% real lead.
  17. Maybe he had some corrupt bad experiences? Maybe ask him before attacking him.
  18. @gambler Don't do personal attacks here.
  19. A vacation to Yemen is a good way to go about this.
  20. 100% Communism. 0% everything else.
