That’s because in his game era he wanted to focus on foundational principles that make game occur naturally He still has a good video up on why he did this

From what I saw LFA just seemed like another mgtow / redpill coach who just speculates in front of a camera. Maybe he matured since then but I remember he had one video ranting about women that was entirely based on one woman giving him a mean look. Owens game advice is based in experience and far more nuanced. I don’t think even Leo appreciates the depth of his insights in this area when I compare his program to Leo’s htgl series.

I don’t like how the tour seems focused on himself, he is really old and should have brought along a co-speaker on tour to cultivate a successor. Or at least focused on expanding some sort of political action organization.

I think Mearsheimer is too biased for wanting to maintain his theories. And Sachs is too biased for not wanting to criticize foreign governments to maintain his connections there. I preferred Chomsky but he is probably not coming back.

That’s because they need to emphasize specific points as they are trying to pierce the mainstream messaging bubble

Stop looking for advice from random commenters. Hire a coach with an actual good track record.

Yet Russia was invaded as well

Intimidate potential rebels. Sadism.

Generally speaking boycotting huge corporations by yourself isn’t going to work to make changes, they will probably not notice. Boycotts are supposed to happen in organized fashion specifically targeting vulnerable companies with sets of demands for them.

It’s not just about money, we have a capacity limit of advanced weapon systems

Even if Putin took the entire country he’d have to expend massive indefinite resources to occupy it and deal with an insurgency while under harsh sanctions. A reasonable deal would be let Putin keep the four oblasts and give Putin assurances Ukraine will remain neutral. The security guarantee to Ukraine can be that if he violates it the military aid and sanctions continue, this time not stopping. Anything else is essentially just saying Ukraine continues a war of attrition until it is totally destroyed.

Then Putin wouldn’t agree to stop the war if the security guarantee is making Ukraine an existential threat in his eyes

But that’s a ridiculous demand. It’s been known from well before the war started Russia sees Ukraine in NATO as a threat.

He came out against trumps Gaza plan. Probably he dislikes Zelensky not agreeing to the mineral plan. Like a month or two prior he talked about wanting access to Ukraines minerals.

He said in exchange for Ukraine in NATO.

You don’t call someone out in the middle of negotiations where you want them to make concessions

I recommend watching the full press conference. The discussion started polite and Trump said he was agreeing to a sign a long term financing agreement. It got heated because Zelensky kept interjecting and trying to start an argument. When Trump said people died on both sides, Zelensky needlessly interjected saying Russians were invaders, Vance made a good point that constantly demonizing Russia in the media has not helped negotiations, and it started the argument. I’m thinking Zelensky did this on purpose, either because he wants to US to reduce or stop aid so he can agree to end the war but blame them, or to make more of a split between the Us and Europe to get Europe to finance more and hope in the next four years a different admin more in favor of indefinite military spending will come along.

Europe is already having major social issues and radicalization, if they militarize now that would mean worsening it as they have to pull resources from their social safety net.
