Balancing that with family and friends." "Stefan, what age do you believe is appropriate to start using a dating app? Asking for a friend." "What do you think of Edward Dutton’s Spiteful Mutant theory?" "Do you think faster than light travel is possible or just sci fi wish fulfilment? "I think it is and that the best time to start colonizing the galaxy was yesterday." "Would you be willing to write some short stories fleshing out some of your character's backgrounds from "The Future"? "Kind of like the Canterbury Tales. "I have always been particularly interested in the doctor's backstory, how he came to The Civ, and what he needed to do in order to join.

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux digs into the true roots of political power and why intellectuals rarely challenge it the way they challenge religion. He answers a listener on credentials and institutions, and argues the state depends on beliefs rather than existing on its own. Questions: "how can sceptic rationalism contend with the intellectual cowardice and ideological capture that has plagued the evolution of its most prominent & ardent thought leaders from the early 2000 to 2020's era - figures such as sam harris , richard dawkins , christopher hitchens and jordan peterson "without a spiritual dimension, can sceptiscism ever evolve beyond its opposition to theism & apply consistent equivalent scrutiny to the rising secular dogmas of their own cultural milieu?" "Is the state an emergent property?" My 10v1 debate in Vegas is coming up on November 16! Check out Digital Social Hour on YouTube for the livestream links: https://youtube.com/@DigitalSocialHour.

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux explains why humans are so violent by looking at our evolution amid constant threats of injury, disease and predators. He also answers listener questions on religious trends, physical books, real pleasure and ethical investing. Questions: "Some statistics show a higher % of younger generations embracing more conservative denominations. You commented on this church trend in males, but my experience is that these places also mostly support child-spanking, a strong centralized gov/ authority, and conformity. Thoughts?" "Stefan, in a recent show you may have commented that the young generation no longer reads physical books. I’ve seen a resurgence of analog technology and physical books on the young as a way to rebel against streaming and social media, can you comment on this trend?" "Received an argument that I was not articulate enough to properly answer: if hedonism is bad from the philosophical perspective, is caring for your family/community/yourself not hedonism since long-term it is a preservation of your (the selfish) genes? Ethical world=gene survival" "Stefan, is investing in bonds unethical sense the interest payout is from cohesive taxation from future generations?" "Stefan, can you comment on the current geopolitical conflicts from the religious lens? Orthodox vs protestants in Ukraine, Israeli Jews and American Christians vs Muslims in Iran; how much of what’s going on is motivated through the perspective of the faithful?"

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux argues that chasing a separate sense of meaning is a delusion and that real happiness comes from honesty, virtue, productive work and caring for others. He also answers listener questions on Macron’s age gap, friendships, grief and more. Questions: "I'm not into policing consensual sex between adults but I find it extremely weird that President Macron married a woman 24 years older than himself. Is it fair to judge a man who marries a woman 2 decades older than himself is frankly super insane/crazy & unfit for presidency?" "why are people so bad at maintaining friendships these days?" "Maybe answer refutations of your previous statements before running away to make new illogical claims." "I think it’s absolutely horrific to see women’s athletic wear becoming so ubiquitous that mothers are wearing these indecent outfits around their children. "Do you think this has negative impacts for the children, especially teenage boys?" "Do you believe in balancing your strengths with weaknesses? your over confidence with your voids?" "A man who does not want to have children is a man without meaning?" "Stefan, can we get another truth about? "Man, the ones back it the day lost a lot of friends but hey, f*ck em. Your Gandhi and Mendela were both eye opening. "I know it’s a lot of work but they’re thorough. Can we donate to see this happen?" "What does it mean to 'grieve properly' when you lose someone close to you?" "You mentioned the need for social groups. Thoughts on book clubs for middle-age high IQ guys once a quarter?
