Good morning, everybody. Stefan Molyneux from

0:02

Freedomain. Great questions from

0:04

the lovely community

0:06

at freedomain .locals .com.

0:09

Dear Seth, I

0:11

got wind that a

0:13

cousin slept with my then -fiancé. The

0:17

person who told me is so untrustworthy

0:19

and is biased, but I can't find

0:21

the strength to confront my cousin because our

0:23

parents are old and I feel that

0:25

this would cause a disturbance of peace in

0:27

the family. I got wind

0:29

that a cousin slept with my

0:31

then -fiancé. The person who told

0:33

me is so untrustworthy and is biased, but

0:36

I can't find the strength to confront my cousin. Our

0:39

parents are old. Okay, so

0:41

if you want

0:43

to stay silent to keep the

0:45

peace, okay, I

0:47

mean, it's the illusion of peace, right?

0:49

It's the illusion of peace. It's

0:52

like saying, well, if Bob owns

0:54

a slave, then there's

0:56

no disturbance in

0:58

salary negotiations, right? It's

1:00

keeping the peace, man. He's just keeping

1:02

the peace. So if

1:04

you want to stay silent

1:07

to keep the peace, it's

1:09

just the illusion of peace. I

1:11

mean, that's censorship, right? Self

1:13

-censorship. So the

1:15

arguments that I was making

1:17

were causing some emotional difficulties

1:19

for people in society, right?

1:22

Arguments that I was making when I was more of

1:24

a public figure. So I

1:26

was censored, right? I

1:28

was deplatformed. And I

1:31

was deplatformed to, quote,

1:33

keep the peace, but it doesn't keep the

1:35

peace. So

1:37

the video that was

1:39

processing when YouTube

1:41

deplatformed me was myself

1:43

and a white cop and a black

1:45

cop talking about the arrest of

1:48

George Floyd and what

1:50

might have happened other than

1:52

the popular narrative. And

1:55

it was actually a very good

1:57

conversation, very honorable and great guys

1:59

to chat with. And that was the

2:01

video that was processing. So that might

2:03

have caused some upset for people. And

2:05

I'll probably never know, but I would

2:07

imagine that had something to do with

2:09

the whole deplatforming thing. So

2:12

when people who had other

2:14

perspectives on the death

2:16

of George Floyd were censored,

2:18

did that bring peace

2:20

to society? Well, no. No,

2:22

I mean, you all remember what

2:24

they ironically referred to as the

2:26

summer of love, the mostly peaceful

2:28

protests, right? This was

2:30

not, it was not

2:33

peace. It was not peace

2:35

at all. So if

2:37

you want to be in,

2:39

quote, relationships where not

2:41

upsetting people comes at the

2:43

expense of your honesty

2:45

and openness and directness, then

2:48

these are illusory relationships. In

2:51

other words, if a

2:53

relationship can only be sustained

2:55

by you lying, it's

2:58

not a relationship. It's

3:00

a pretense. Honestly,

3:02

I mean, to take an extreme

3:04

example, it's like a guy

3:06

kidnapping a woman, you

3:08

know, locking her in

3:10

his basement and saying, hey,

3:13

a woman is living with me.

3:15

I got a girlfriend. She's living with

3:17

me now. She's moved in. I

3:19

mean, we wouldn't call that any kind

3:21

of real relationship. We would call

3:24

that kidnapping and imprisonment. So

3:26

I don't know how a

3:28

relationship where you self -erase can

3:30

be considered a relationship. That's just

3:32

a mark of subjugation. If

3:34

you say, well, I

3:36

can't speak about what I

3:38

think and feel because

3:40

other people will be upset,

3:42

then you're saying that

3:44

the least mature, least wise,

3:46

least self -controlled, least disciplined

3:49

people Run the entire

3:51

family situation. Is

3:53

that where you want to be? Is

3:55

that where you want to be? Do

3:59

you want to be in this kind

4:01

of situation? Let's say you meet some

4:03

great woman. I think you're a man.

4:06

Let's say you meet some great woman

4:08

and this is the dilemma you

4:10

give to her. Well, the cousin slept

4:12

with my fiance, but the

4:14

person who told me is a liar

4:16

and untrustworthy and I don't know if

4:18

I should say anything. I mean, who's

4:20

going to want to get involved from

4:22

the outside without your history with these

4:24

people? Who's going to want to get

4:26

involved in this kind of situation? Who?

4:30

Who's going to want to get

4:32

involved in this kind of

4:34

deliverance -style family trailer park trashy

4:36

chaos? See, this is

4:38

an empathy thing, and we'll get to empathy in a

4:40

sec. This is an empathy thing. You

4:43

have a history with your family. They have

4:45

a value to you. because of your history.

4:47

And I'm not going to argue that they

4:49

don't or that you're wrong. Of course, you

4:51

do have a history. And

4:53

there is value in

4:55

that history, right? Shared

4:58

memories, shared experiences, shared

5:00

lives. There is value in

5:02

that history. I'm not going to pretend that

5:04

there isn't. I'm not going to say you're

5:06

wrong. I mean, there's value in the history

5:08

that my family of origin and I share.

5:11

So you have to wrestle

5:13

with and deal with that

5:15

value and that history. but

5:17

only because you were born

5:19

into that situation and environment,

5:21

right? That's only because of that. Now,

5:24

somebody coming in from

5:27

the outside has no

5:29

history or value with

5:31

your family of origin.

5:34

Somebody coming in from the outside

5:36

has no history or value with

5:38

your family of origin. They have

5:40

no investment. They have no sentimentality.

5:42

So how are they going to

5:44

view your family situation? So

5:46

this is what I say when I say

5:49

to people, let's say you met your mother

5:51

at a dinner party. You didn't know her.

5:53

She was just some woman. You met your

5:55

mother at a dinner party. Would

5:57

you want to hang out with her

5:59

for the rest of your life? Would you

6:01

want to pursue a relationship, a friendship,

6:03

a mentorship? Was she wise and helpful and

6:06

virtuous and wonderful and funny? Whatever the

6:08

positive attributes that would be enough for you

6:10

to pursue that. And

6:12

the reason I say that is you

6:14

need to empathize. with people outside of

6:16

your family about what your family looks

6:19

like, because that's, in fact, what happens

6:21

when you meet someone you might marry.

6:24

You meet someone you might

6:26

marry. You're saying, come into

6:28

my family with no value

6:30

based on shared history. Judge

6:32

my family without

6:35

the involuntary value

6:37

of involuntary shared

6:39

history. And

6:41

so if you can't look

6:43

at your... family without adding

6:45

the virtues and values of

6:47

a shared history, which are

6:49

real. If you can't look

6:51

at your family objectively, then you

6:54

can't look at your family the

6:56

way a potential husband or wife

6:58

will look at your family. That

7:00

is not a good idea.

7:02

It's not a good idea.

7:05

I mean, I remember in my

7:07

20s, I was dating a

7:09

woman who had an abusive father

7:11

and He

7:14

was unrepentant. And she was going for lunch

7:16

with him. And she said, do you want to

7:18

come along? And I said, well, hell no. I

7:21

don't have the history. I don't have

7:23

the shared history. He's just someone who

7:25

hurt someone as a child that I

7:27

care about as an adult. I

7:29

don't have any, there's no, what incentive?

7:31

Like if you were to say to me,

7:33

do you want to go for lunch

7:36

with some random child abuser? I'd be like,

7:38

well, of course not, right? but

7:40

he's my father. It's like, yes, but

7:42

he's not my father. I don't have

7:44

the history. And I never went for

7:46

lunch. And I did kind of

7:48

disagree with her going for lunch, but you know, again,

7:50

I don't tell people what to do. I'm

7:52

a free will guy. And

7:54

when you have some persuasion skills, it's kind

7:57

of important to even be more of a

7:59

dedicated free will guy. So

8:01

why would any quality person

8:03

want to get involved in

8:05

this trash, right? Not you,

8:07

just this family mess. Dear

8:09

Steph, is it moral to hold

8:11

on to socially damaging information? I do

8:13

genealogical studies and always come across spicy

8:15

details about political figures, but I feel

8:18

that this will just dumb down even

8:20

more the political discourse in my country. I'm

8:23

not sure why you would be in pursuit

8:25

of information that you'd want to keep hidden.

8:27

That seems odd to me. I've worked for

8:29

years on a cure for XYZ disease, right?

8:31

So if you're not going to release any

8:34

of the information, I'm not sure why you'd

8:36

bother studying it. All right. Dear

8:38

Steph, I asked this question

8:40

before on locals. What

8:42

do you think of all the focus

8:44

on the breast cancer causing BRCA genes?

8:46

Do you think parents should engage in

8:48

IVF or abstinence, I guess, in order

8:50

to avoid passing on a gene which

8:52

drastically increases the risk of cancer? I'm

8:54

curious to hear your thoughts as a

8:56

cancer survivor yourself. I would presume you

8:58

would appreciate being born, but now that

9:00

I'm aware I might have the gene

9:02

one parent has it, I feel somewhat

9:04

obligated to get tested and do IVF.

9:06

for my next child if I do

9:08

have the gene. Well,

9:11

let's look at, I think this

9:13

was the case with the celebrity,

9:16

the actress Angelina Jolie, that she

9:18

had this gene and she got

9:20

a double mastectomy because I think

9:22

her own mother had died in

9:24

her 50s of breast cancer. She

9:26

didn't say, I wish I'd never been born

9:28

and throw herself off a cliff. I mean, I

9:31

think it's important and good to get, you

9:33

know, I'm... half and half about this stuff. This

9:35

is just a personal opinion. So this has

9:37

nothing to do with philosophy. It's just a personal

9:39

opinion. You know, because,

9:41

I mean, this is from

9:43

the old show Kroll. There's a

9:45

cyclops who knows the day

9:47

of his death. And

9:49

so there are these tests you can

9:51

take, I think, that here's your chances

9:53

of getting dementia and here's your chances

9:56

of this. And I don't know, man.

9:58

I mean, for me, this is a

10:00

certain quality of life issue. which

10:02

is if I know, oh, I have

10:04

an increased chance of dementia, then, you know,

10:07

every time I get older and forget

10:09

something, be like, oh, no, right? Is there

10:11

sort of an interference in the quality

10:13

of life issue? In other words, is there

10:15

a kind of blissful ignorance in not

10:17

knowing these things? Now, of course, if this

10:19

is a very dangerous gene and so

10:21

on, then that's a different

10:23

matter, right? But I,

10:26

for one, quite enjoy the blissful ignorance

10:28

about... things in the future, health issues.

10:30

I quite enjoy that blissful ignorance. And

10:32

I can't imagine myself getting tested for

10:34

anything because, I mean, let's say that

10:36

I have some gene that increases the

10:38

risk or some gene set increases the

10:41

risk of dementia. Well, why would

10:43

I want to know that ahead of time? It's going

10:45

to happen either way. I might as well not know that

10:47

ahead of time and rather than being concerned about it

10:49

ahead of time. So again, I'm

10:51

not saying this is just my personal

10:53

opinion. It's not medical advice, right?

10:55

It's just my particular opinion to this

10:57

kind of information. I guess everyone

10:59

has differences. But if you have these

11:01

genes that is going to increase,

11:04

significantly increase the risk of breast cancer,

11:06

then I think it's important to

11:08

know if it's very dire and it's

11:10

important to let your kids know

11:12

and so on. As to whether or

11:14

not you should do IVF or,

11:16

I mean, that's a personal decision, obviously,

11:19

right? I mean, I love the

11:21

fact that my daughter is a blend

11:23

of my wife and I. So

11:25

you'll get some I guess some

11:27

safety advantages if you do IVF, but

11:30

there may be some slightly less

11:32

bonding. I don't, I mean, so everything

11:34

in life is a trade -off and

11:36

this is not a foundationally moral

11:38

decision because it's not the initiation of

11:40

the use of force to have

11:42

a kid. So I would

11:44

say that it's something for you to,

11:47

sorry, I hate to say it's

11:49

something for you to figure out, but

11:51

it's not a specifically moral decision. And

11:54

most people would rather be alive and

11:57

take the risk of cancer, and certainly

11:59

I would be, most people would rather be

12:01

alive and take the risk of cancer

12:03

than not be alive at all. And we

12:05

know that because when you're a kid,

12:07

the big C, right? Big C. When you're

12:09

a kid and you first learn about

12:11

disease and death and cancer and so on,

12:14

you don't just jump off a bridge where you're like, okay,

12:16

well, disease is a risk

12:18

of life and it's worth it.

12:20

And we know that because most

12:22

people go through diseases rather than

12:24

kill themselves. All

12:27

right. Oh,

12:31

do you believe it is government overreach for

12:33

the government? Yes. Do

12:35

you believe it is government overreach for the government?

12:37

Yes. To practice eugenics by effectively

12:40

taking control of dating apps. For example,

12:42

the Australian government recently introduced a voluntary

12:44

industry code for dating app companies to

12:46

take action against people accused of domestic

12:48

violence or online -enabled harm, thus limiting

12:50

their experience on dating apps. Whilst

12:52

an argument could be made that those

12:54

who have actually committed domestic violence should be

12:56

banned from such platforms, what's crazy and

12:58

tyrannical is firstly one, how loose the definition

13:00

of domestic violence or online -enabled harm is

13:02

these days. An accusation can just be

13:04

made against a user, blah, blah, blah. Yeah,

13:06

I mean, the weaponization

13:08

of female accusations is about

13:11

as long and grim

13:13

and ugly a topic as

13:15

can be conceived of.

13:17

But yeah, I mean, punishment

13:19

without due process is...

13:21

a problem. And sure, I

13:23

mean, they want to... So the most,

13:25

I mean, you also, the most freedom -loving

13:27

people will be the ones who get most

13:29

harmed by this, right? Right,

13:31

the most freedom -loving people, in general, white

13:33

males, will be the ones most harmed

13:35

by this. And yeah, it is very

13:37

much trying to have an effect on the birth rate,

13:39

I assume. Do you think

13:42

that empathy, even to a limited degree, is something

13:44

reserved for a limited set of people? Well,

13:47

I don't know. what

13:49

you mean by reserved for. So,

13:52

from what I understand,

13:54

somebody who is brutally treated,

13:56

both in utero and as

13:59

a baby, has a

14:01

pretty tough time trying to

14:03

develop empathy. Empathy is 13

14:05

coordinated areas of the brain,

14:07

requires mirror neurons, and there's

14:09

a physical basis to

14:11

empathy, right? I mean, if

14:13

you look at people who

14:15

are true psychopaths or sociopaths,

14:18

you know, their brains work

14:20

differently. And I mean,

14:22

that's not necessarily... Brains work

14:24

differently is not an argument for

14:26

genetics necessarily. I guess before

14:28

GPS, London cabbies

14:30

had crazy overdeveloped

14:33

or strongly developed spatial

14:35

reasoning centers in

14:37

their brain because London,

14:40

England evolved. It is not laid out

14:42

in any kind of grid pattern like,

14:44

say, Toronto or... York had just kind

14:46

of evolved from medieval towns and hamlets

14:48

and so on. So it's a real

14:50

mess. So their brains work

14:52

differently. But that's not

14:55

genetics. That's just training and practice.

14:57

It's the same thing with

14:59

musical dexterity. It's something I don't

15:01

particularly have. But somebody who's

15:03

an expert violinist or guitarist is going to

15:05

have that in spades. So

15:07

the fact that some people's

15:09

brains show up on scans

15:11

is... as different, right? So

15:13

for some people, if you

15:15

scan them when they're looking,

15:17

I mean, this is really

15:19

grossly oversimplified. So, you

15:21

know, do your own research. But

15:23

my understanding of it is that

15:25

if you show videos of people

15:28

being tortured, you know, some people's

15:30

fear and disgust and horror centers

15:32

light up and some people's happiness,

15:34

joy and pleasure centers light up,

15:36

right? Which would be the difference

15:38

between somebody with empathy and somebody

15:40

who's a sadist, I assume, right? I

15:43

don't think, again, as

15:45

far as I know,

15:47

and the moral and philosophical

15:49

approach has yet to

15:51

be really tried in

15:53

my understanding, so this

15:56

is not for certain,

15:58

but I don't think

16:00

that current psychological expertise has

16:02

any real luck or

16:04

success in curing people

16:06

of sadism or really

16:08

cruel mindsets or... a

16:11

real lack of empathy or what's called

16:13

borderline. I mean, people will often, there's

16:15

a sort of criminality that peaks into

16:17

late teens, early 20s, and then it

16:19

will diminish over time. For most people,

16:21

borderlines tend to mellow out a little

16:23

bit as they age or they just

16:25

get burned out, I don't know, something

16:27

like that. So

16:29

as far as I understand

16:31

it, if there's a lot

16:33

of early trauma, stress,

16:36

abuse, and damage

16:38

to the fetuses and

16:40

infant and toddler brain and

16:42

experience, I don't know that

16:44

there's any particularly well -established

16:47

way to put Humpty Dumpty

16:49

back together again. So I

16:51

wouldn't say that that's reserved, right?

16:54

The way that I would view it

16:56

is if you have, you know, some

16:58

horrible sadist who cuts off his child's

17:00

arm and throws it into the ocean

17:02

and the child survives, you say, well,

17:05

is clapping reserved for only some

17:07

people? Well, it's

17:09

not that it's reserved. It's that if

17:11

people have their arms cut off as

17:13

children, they can't clap, right? If

17:16

some kid is starved to the point where

17:18

he ends up with a significant physical disability,

17:20

I don't know, maybe loses his eyesight or

17:22

something like that, is

17:24

seeing reserved for something. You

17:26

get enough cruelty and torture and trauma. As

17:28

a kid, it can have significant effects on your

17:31

brain. And so we want

17:33

to aim to diminish that as much

17:35

as possible. I will say, though, that

17:37

empathy... is one of these classical double -edged

17:39

swords. Empathy is

17:41

really, really, really dangerous

17:43

because empathy is a

17:45

strength to the virtuous

17:47

and a massive vulnerability

17:49

for the corrupt. In

17:52

other words, corrupt people,

17:54

they don't feel virtue

17:56

themselves, but they know

17:58

that other people do. So

18:02

this is the argument

18:04

that is made. about deportations,

18:06

right? Well, it could

18:09

split up families. Well,

18:12

there's a lot of people in

18:14

society who are very keen

18:16

on splitting up families, right? I

18:18

mean, they were willing to

18:20

set families against family members under

18:22

COVID over the vaccine and

18:24

other things. They are willing to

18:26

have people arrested for various

18:28

activities, which in a rational society

18:30

would not even be crimes.

18:32

And that certainly separates and splits

18:35

up families They

18:37

advocate for the hyper -feminism, don't

18:39

need no man, marriage is

18:41

slavery, divorce your husband, and so

18:43

on. So they're very, very

18:45

keen on splitting up families when

18:47

it suits their agenda. But

18:49

they also know that people are

18:51

sentimental and sad about splitting up families

18:53

when it's phrased that way. People

18:55

live in language, they don't live in

18:57

reality. It's another reason why governments

18:59

are very keen to export manufacturing jobs

19:01

and replace them with HR jobs. because

19:04

the more people work with their hands,

19:06

the more people work with reality, the

19:09

more empirical and rational they become, and

19:11

the less susceptible to propaganda they are.

19:13

If you have a job that doesn't

19:15

rely on propaganda, in fact, if propaganda

19:17

harms your job, you're less susceptible to

19:19

propaganda, which is why, although I didn't

19:21

like doing manual labor as a kid

19:24

and as a teen, and in my

19:26

early 20s, I appreciated the empirical grounding

19:28

in reality that it all gave me,

19:30

right? So, the

19:33

people who, oh, don't want to

19:35

split up families. Well, if you call

19:37

it female empowerment and refusing to submit

19:39

to the patriarchy, then apparently splitting up

19:42

families is really good. But if you

19:44

just say splitting up families, separating

19:46

parents and children, and as the guy

19:48

said, who, now, whatever his name is,

19:50

he's like, well, if you're driving drunk

19:52

with your family in the car, we

19:54

take the husband into custody. We

19:56

separate the family, split the family, right? Or

19:59

when they say, well, undocumented and

20:01

so on. is fine. It doesn't matter

20:03

if you've broken the law. Okay,

20:05

well then, what if you don't enforce

20:07

tax laws, right? Would

20:09

they be comfortable with that? Well, no.

20:11

They need the tax laws to

20:13

get the money to give to people

20:15

who are not obeying the immigration

20:17

laws. So, in terms of splitting up

20:19

families and so on, it's pure

20:21

propaganda term. Pure propaganda language. So,

20:24

because it's shameful to split up

20:26

families, but they would never criticize

20:28

a woman who leaves a man,

20:30

right? just because she's dissatisfied. Dissatisfied

20:33

is no reason to split up

20:35

a family, particularly if there are

20:37

children involved. It's kind of selfish,

20:39

right? But they would never condemn

20:41

that because deporting people might cut

20:43

into the left's voting base, and

20:46

therefore that's splitting up families, and

20:48

it's really bad. But

20:50

women leaving their husbands, the single

20:52

women also vote for the left,

20:54

and so that's being empowered

20:56

and refusing to submit to the...

20:58

patriarchy and fighting the revolution called

21:00

mansplaining or whatever nonsense they come

21:02

up with, right? So it's

21:04

just about power, but they know

21:06

that there's certain terms that trigger

21:09

people, and so they use

21:11

those terms. And that's because they

21:13

understand that other people have sympathy

21:15

and empathy and sentimentality, but

21:17

they themselves don't. So just push

21:19

those buttons, right? It's like the

21:21

Achilles heel of the person

21:23

who has empathy is understanding that

21:26

their empathy will be exploited. In other

21:28

words, and it's a sort of mental

21:30

challenge. It's a self -knowledge challenge, which

21:32

is how do you empathize with people

21:34

who have no empathy? Because if

21:36

you can't empathize with people who have no

21:38

empathy, you're just going to get the living

21:41

shit exploited out of you. You're going to

21:43

get control pushed around and manipulated. This

21:45

is sort of the basic rule of treat others the

21:48

best you can. The first you meet them after that, treat

21:50

them as they treat you. So

21:52

if you can't empathize with those who

21:54

have a lack of empathy, then your

21:56

empathy is going to be used to

21:58

exploit and bully and control you. I

22:00

mean, my mother tried pulling this stuff

22:03

with me after hitting me a lot as

22:05

a kid when I finally, I didn't

22:07

even hit her back, but I just pushed

22:09

back. Physically, she was just shocked and

22:11

appalled, and how dare you, right? She was

22:13

just trying to reach in through my

22:15

empathy meter and my self -criticism meter, like

22:17

the hole there. and just try and work

22:20

the levers of my conscience to control

22:22

me. Right, so this is

22:24

the big problem, of course, with

22:26

the West as a whole at

22:28

the moment, is that, I mean,

22:30

women, you could say, have excessive

22:32

empathy relative to men. I mean,

22:35

it's not excessive because it's totally

22:37

appropriate to our evolution. We can't

22:39

be the most successful species in

22:41

the known universe and then complain

22:43

about one gender or one sex

22:45

and the other. or the other.

22:47

So women have excessive empathy because

22:50

men are supposed to restrain that

22:52

empathy. So when men

22:54

were in control of the resources,

22:56

whether this is right or wrong doesn't

22:58

really matter. We're just talking about

23:00

the evolutionary pressures. When men were in

23:02

control of the resources, then women

23:04

could have excessive empathy and men could

23:06

say no. So

23:08

women could say, oh, this

23:10

woman who left her

23:12

family, she needs financial help.

23:15

and there'd be a lot of

23:17

women's very strong empathy, sometimes to

23:19

the point of unwisdom, they would

23:21

have to appeal to the men,

23:23

and the men would look at

23:25

it more objectively and say, yes

23:27

or no. And again, whether it's

23:29

right or wrong is not relevant

23:31

to this analysis, but women could develop

23:33

excess empathy because the restraint, right?

23:36

Women could have the gas on empathy,

23:38

and they could floor it because

23:40

the men were the brakes. And

23:42

then men would say, no, no, I'm

23:44

not. No, she brought it on herself. I'm

23:46

not helping her. And the women would

23:48

get upset, but they would have to sort

23:51

of abide by that, right? But when

23:53

you have governments and national debts and unfunded

23:55

liabilities, then the sort of

23:57

pathological, the empathy goes from

23:59

something that's important, right? Men can

24:01

lack empathy and women can

24:03

have an excess of empathy and

24:05

both need to be resolved

24:07

in negotiation with each other, right?

24:10

I mean, And if a

24:12

man's friend is sick, he probably, I

24:14

mean, I tell you this myself, if

24:16

a man's friend is sick, he probably

24:18

has not thought about baking a casserole

24:20

and going over, right? But

24:23

women will say, you need to, you know, I'm

24:25

going to bake a casserole and bring it over.

24:27

And the man's like, oh yeah, you know, that

24:29

is kind of nice. Yeah, good for you, right?

24:31

And so that's good. So

24:33

women have more than an equal

24:35

amount of empathy. Men have

24:37

a deficiency, but together it works.

24:40

Because if the man is

24:42

deficient in empathy, the woman's excessive

24:44

or excess empathy will warm

24:46

things up. And if the woman

24:48

is excessive in her empathy to the

24:50

point where it threatens the resources needed for

24:52

good people to flourish, the man will

24:54

pull it back. So

24:56

the state and

24:59

the lack of restraint

25:01

over pathological altruism

25:03

has made it, of

25:05

course, extremely dangerous.

25:08

Men as a whole,

25:10

or the less

25:12

empathetic, can no longer

25:14

restrain the sort

25:16

of florid, pathological empathy

25:19

of the hypersympathetic,

25:21

and therefore propaganda has

25:23

substituted natural restraint. And

25:26

this conflict, which used to be

25:28

balanced and very productive, right? It

25:30

used to be balanced and very

25:32

productive, has now become unbalanced. to

25:35

the point where, you know, a

25:37

lot of, and not all, of

25:39

course, but a lot of female

25:41

voters are voting for, you know,

25:43

some pretty, pretty alarming, excessive empathy

25:45

things. And a lot of

25:47

the men feeling helpless to restrain some of

25:49

these excesses are kind of retreating from the

25:51

dating market in some fairly horror, fair horror

25:53

and disgust. Because they're saying, well, look, if

25:56

women vote for all of this pathological stuff

25:58

that may end up resulting in a war,

26:00

we're the ones who are going to get

26:02

drafted. So the women are, you know, kind

26:04

of adequate. I mean, it's not a... It's

26:06

not every man, of course, but there's a

26:08

certain perspective that women are voting to feel

26:10

good and we're going to end up paying

26:12

the price either financially or through some sort

26:15

of significant conflict that we're going to end

26:17

up being on the front lines of. And

26:19

there's just this kind of real frustration that's

26:21

going on. And I think that's one of

26:23

the reasons why, sort of deep down, right?

26:26

And you've seen these memes, right?

26:28

Like when it was Trump versus Kamala

26:30

Harris, there were these memes where You

26:34

know, it was a bunch of

26:36

men at war, like me and the

26:38

boys, fighting in Thailand because the

26:40

women wanted to elect a female. And

26:43

that's bitter stuff. And also the bitterness

26:45

of, like, if World War III has

26:47

ever threatened all of the feminists morph

26:49

into housewives, there is a certain amount

26:51

of frustration. but

27:05

that's that's the challenge so I really
