RE: How Stefan Molyneux Changed My Life

in #gratitude8 years ago (edited)

Stefan has also changed my life. I've since deviated away from many of his opinions, but overall he is doing great work in encouraging people to stop believing in the biased big media corporations. The biggest problem I have with him is the drama surrounding Joe Rogan calling him out on the defooing. I partially agree with him; defooing is reasonable in some cases, but it's not the same scenario as divorce, as many of his arguments ignored the basic biological fact that parents raise their children. Your genes came from your parents, not your wife/husband, so the dynamics are not the same. Also, his arguments against religion do not work against non-organized versions of Buddhism, Taoism, or Hinduism. However, he has gotten better recently in recognizing that in certain scenarios, even though the Christian God isn't real, it can still be a more positive ideology with more marginal benefits than certain branches of atheism. Also, the comments section of his Youtube videos are absolutely poisonous. There are tons of sophist arguments attempting to coerce people into agreeing with his ideologies. Anyone calling out his brainwashed followers are called "statists", "feminazis", etc. Scott Adams calls himself "libertarian without the crazy"; I suspect that Molyneux is what he considers "the crazy."
