Do you ever have the desire to leave and live on an island beach?""If most of your life was a psychological operation, how would you logically assess the moral and strategic response once it all unravels?""When is it right to speak about an issue""How does the phenomenon of 'working yourself out of a job' fit into a logical capitalist system? A logical *and moral* capitalist system rewards productivity and innovation. A crony capitalist system punishes productivity and innovation. Over my many years of work, I've lost track of how many times I was told 'don't work yourself out of a job' or had bosses steal ideas and even claim work done as their own that was done by another. MAKE IT WORK PHILOSOPHICALLY. The last 'frontier' was not peaceful parenting. That was the second to last frontier. The last frontier is private sector ethics, which is the only path toward a real capitalistic society.""What are your thoughts on meditation? Have you ever done it?""In a world where evil is rewarded and good behavior punished, is evil behavior justified?""I have a philosophical question. How should you measure philosophical principles against real world outcomes? It seems to me there needs to be an objective yardstick to gauge philosophical theories.""A man can do bad things all his like and then do one good deed and they say, he’s not so bad, a man can so good things all his life and one day do one bad deed and they say, he’s shown his true colours""Does evil exist? As a force? A demonic or satanic spirit that possesses individuals or even groups? As a learned behavior?""Are you gonna answer them?"SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
