Live Questions:
1:00:15 I agree with you that racism is crude and unintellectual. Although, many intellectuals have adopted racial interpretations of the world like Hanania. Even respectable intellectuals always revert to race and class explanations for success and failure of different groups.
1:02:48 I notice the right is rejecting individualism and the pursuit of happiness bc they think individualism leads to loneliness and narcissism, and the pursuit of happiness leads to hedonism. So Christian theocracy seems like the only reasonable antidote.
1:04:43 I just finished Peikoffs series on induction and physics.do you agree that philosophy has the veto power on physics?what do you think about modern physics i.e. quantum physics and the like? I know rand had a stance on the Heisenberg principle in OPAR
1:12:38 Would your evaluation of Hanania’s self criticism change if he weren’t a public intellectual? I’m not familiar with his story, but when can one forgive oneself for having abhorrent views? After careful introspection and rejecting them?
1:16:55 What are your thoughts on taxing wealth vs income? The USA taxes wealth and the UK taxes income. A great example is council tax is capped at $20K and below. By taxing income it keeps people from getting wealthy in the UK.
1:20:24 In an earlier show, you said that you had seen Luo Li Rong's sculpture in person. Are you at liberty to tell us where?
1:21:15 I watched Vivek debate David Pakman. Pretty impressive. It's nice to see a young articulate tech giant intellectual on the right who's not afraid to debate leftists. Can he beat Biden if he's the nominee?
1:23:15 Were Einstein and Oppenheimer actually worried the Nazi's were capable of producing a nuclear bomb before us? Was that even a possibility given the Nazi's were annihilating the smartest most educated members of there society?
1:25:09 I wish Ayn Rand had wrote more about the philosophical corruption of physics. I believe Einstein and Oppehneimer both rejected the interpretation of quantum mechanics and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle?
1:26:14 Off topic, but do you think many, if not most people today don't like being alone with their own thoughts? That's why they either become workaholics or alcoholics? This may also explain the opined crises?
1:27:54 Hitler banned theoretical physics in German universities, calling it “Jewish physics.” Today, China requires AI to “adhere to socialist values.” Man’s mind must be free for innovation to occur
1:28:53 In your opinion what would a successful tech entrepreneur say if asked if they think diversity is important. How would they defend making billions of dollars when there are people on the homeless. Any additional advice?
1:30:52 What's that conference you're doing with Jordan Peterson in London? Will you have the chance to go one on one with him?
1:32:56 Are courageous people more rare than you originally believed?
1:33:35 Do sophisticated evil people often use "compassion" as camouflage?
1:33:56 You've mentioned you believe Christianity is more explicitly anti-happiness and anti-human emotion than Islam. In what aspects? And why did this manifest?
1:38:21 Uneducated and angry is a dangerous combination.
1:38:32 Who is the interview you did that you wished you hadn't sanctioned?
1:39:41 Do you think when Blake Scholl and BOOM become super successful and change the world, Blake will publicly give credit to Ayn Rand for making his success possible?
1:40:00 How are banks downgrading in USA, Chinese exports declining, South East Asia's growth the last 10 years, and Europe aging all related? Did you see my other questions before the stream?
1:41:37 So, is property Theft, or is it Ownership? 😇
1:41:51 See pinned comment for timestamps of additional questions
