Live Questions:
35:41 What has been your biggest failure during your career? And what did you learn from it? Was it shorting Netbank?
38:44 You notice any political thinker or movement that is confident, prideful and believes in hierarchies the left categorizes as "fascist". That's why they view Ayn Rand as a fascist thinker. A dangerous and viscous package deal.
41:01 WHY is Wagner mutiny not same as Potempkin mutiny?
41:37 What is the future of the Chinese economy as more wealthy Chinese move to Western countries, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and UAE (specifically Dubai)? How do you see this contributing to a rolling recession globally?
44:16 Do you think it's possible to be successful in politics without increasing the power of the state? Even when the Republicans still used the rhetoric of less statism, they still wound up increasing spending, after all.
45:58 Just a thought: the saying «speak your mind» is so profound and powerful in its essence.. have a good one Yaron
46:22 Does the left dial back the war on drugs when they're in power?
46:46 What do you think of Line city in Saudi Arabia?
47:54 What's the difference between xenophobia and racism?
49:24 Pierre Poilievre is calling for deregulation of the Canadian housing market. I think the 2024 elections across the west will see a sweep of conservative wins. Let’s make these superchat goals!
50:06 פריגוז'ין
50:11 should the russian tactic of bombing civilian targets as a means of weakening the Ukrainians will to fight be considered rational self interest? (besides the immoral decision to invade altogether)
51:27 The fixation on hierarchies is interesting. It’s not wrong to observe differences among people but what is one using that observation for? If it’s a feeling of superiority, it’s a problem.
52:29 Will you do a show on the UK economy and the potential crash they are facing? A great CNBC article came out last week about their real estate issues.
54:09 Looking forward to OCON!
