STOP BEING A SLAVE! Freedomain Call In

30 October 2020 Call-In

Hello Stefan and fellow listeners. I’m a 22 year-old guy who failed in almost every aspect a human being could. Never had any meaningful contact with the opposite sex, never had a real job, and I’m also currently overweight (280 pounds for a 6 foot guy). My only good point is that I don’t use any sort of drug (not even alcohol).

I have a very complicated relationship with sacrifice. I had a very strict childhood, with not many friends allowed in home, and not many entertainment sources. According to my parents, that was a way to “focus on my education”.

For a long time I was the best student in class, and I had to attend two high schools simultaneously. I got into college, and after almost four years of lies and useless classes, I dropped out. My parents don’t know I quit college. I don’t want them to know it either. Everytime they tried to “help me”, all I got was a clearer vision of hell.

I am also what you could call a “ghost employee” of the local city hall. My father got me this position using a friend of his. I would receive the pension promised in forty years (my ticket for the ponzi scheme), and right now I get the equivalent to $20 every month for keeping my mouth shut. Recently I managed to accumulate enough savings to live for three months or so without depending on my parents. But I’m afraid. I feel like I’m sitting on a box of bombs. My parents could find out I dropped out of college. They could throw me out of the house, and I could fail to find a way to support myself in those three months.

Not everything is bad though. I’ve been out of college for almost a year, and this year I have learned more than in my four years of college combined. Sometimes I still face failure—the most recent one being rejected for some jobs. Those failures, even the small ones, really knock me out. I fear I could be wasting my time. A certain bald podcaster gave me something to dream about. I don’t want to feel trapped in time, like my time in college, ever again.

My question is: how can I fix my relationship with sacrifice if all the sacrifice I have ever made was for nothing?

Women's Peak Sexual Beauty! Twitter/X Space

Twitter Space 22 July 2025

In this episode, I explore the complexities of female sexual beauty and its evolutionary ties to modern dating dynamics. I discuss the brief window of peak beauty relevant to attracting mates and the pressures women face regarding attractiveness in today's society. Through personal reflections and listener comments, I examine the emotional challenges of seeking genuine connections amid transactional relationships. Additionally, I address the impact of changing social systems on commitment and accountability, inviting listeners to reflect on societal values, personal growth, and the nuances of love in the contemporary landscape.

The Salvations of Philosophy! Twitter Response

Follow me on X! https://x.com/stefanmolyneux

In this lecture, Stefan Molyneux examines the theme of indifference among Christians during his childhood experiences of violence and trauma. He highlights the contradictions between Christian moral teachings and the inaction of those professing these values, reflecting on a pervasive neglect he encountered from supportive figures. Molyneux discusses the challenge of evil as a critical issue for humanity, arguing that both religious frameworks and atheistic nihilism fall short in addressing this problem. He introduces his ethical system of Universally Preferable Behavior (UPB), which aims to provide an objective moral foundation independent of religious beliefs or governmental authority. Central to his discussion is the protection of children, with Molyneux critiquing existing moral and educational systems for failing to ensure their safety. He concludes by urging exploration of concepts like peaceful parenting and UPB as pathways to a more moral ...

NEW PREVIEW FOR SUPPORTERS - What Has Replaced GOD? Twitter/X Space

Subscribers get early previews for shows!

Sunday Evening FLASH Twitter Space 6 July 2025

In this episode, I explore the interplay between societal expectations and the ethics of action in an imperfect world. I challenge the belief that we must wait for ideal conditions to engage, advocating for direct action in addressing real issues. Drawing on personal experiences and professional insights, I highlight the pitfalls of striving for perfection and the importance of measurable impacts in philanthropy.

The discussion touches on the concept of a "mystery religion" in modern culture, critiquing blind faith in authority. I encourage listeners to confront difficult questions about their beliefs and responsibilities, emphasizing the need for ongoing dialogue and critical engagement to navigate life's complexities with integrity.
