Locals questions answered!

How do you know when to hold someone responsible for forgetting? When does one genuinely forget something? Is it just a matter of discerning the response from a forgetter when you point out the forgetfulness?

Where is the line between conscientious introspection and navel-gazing?

it is often stated that women are more valued in society. Women reproduce more, men are disposable etc. but why is it then, that more female babies are being aborted? It is also mentioned in "the origins of war in child abuse" that more baby girls were killed as infants.
Thank you!

Hi Stef, have a 20 month old and we're wondering where to set our expectations in terms of reasoning. Since around 13 months he's been able to communicate his preferences to yes or no questions, and at around 18 months began the transition into agreements such as can we play after brushing your teeth in the morning. I would say 90% of the time it works fine, with the other portion requiring more convincing/patience with him sometimes crying to get what he wants. My question is whether this is too soon for this and we should wait until he is a bit older to fully understand the deal concept? Or if there is something wrong with the approach. Thanks again for all your help and everything that you do.

Stef, I have a question about fiction, fantasy, to be more specific.
You mentioned before how this kind of fiction is a way to escape reality. Potentially, a way to not deal with real problems.
I'm a wannabe writer, from a market perspective, I see fantastic universes as a way to attract readers. It's way easier to convince people to read a book about a magic school, than a book about WWI.
Is there a way to do fantasy without subtracting from the message?
I saw what you did with "The Future", it is a fiction scenario. But I would like to go even further, that's why (if possible) I would like to ask you for some sort of guiding principle, so my story will still be able to deliver what's important: moral instruction.

Hi Stef. I know you are into music, but are you into hi-fi? What kind of system do you listen to music on? Have you heard of digital room correction which helps to compensate for the negative effects of the listening room, (Dirac is a good example) or the 'Bacch' system which restores the 3D soundstage imaging of the original stereo recording? Many thanks.

Are Bank Failures tied to COVID Lockdowns and THAT Giant Economic Destruction created over the past three years?

SPECIAL NEW YEARS MESSAGE: Putting off Procrastination!

Stefan Molyneux digs into procrastination, tracing it back to childhood and the way it creates a master-slave setup in how people see their own freedom. He points out that resentment builds up from tasks forced on someone early on, leading to a habit of pushing back against anything that feels like an order. Molyneux stresses seeing choices for what they are and viewing those tasks as chances instead of duties. When he talks about owning up to one's own wants, it helps people take back control, changing how they handle what needs doing and easing the drag of putting things off.

On Those We Left Behind!

Stefan Molyneux examines the idea of "defooing," a process of breaking away from harmful family patterns to build a better life ahead. He points out how defooing requires active steps, since damaging family members often block progress in personal bonds and development. Using stories from listeners, he talks about gaining perspective from others, and how family background affects one's sense of self and dealings with people.

He looks at the difficulties in reaching out to family like brothers or sisters after pulling back from a poisonous setup. Molyneux covers the tangled feelings and dangers of being upfront about family issues, noting the likely pushback from those who side with the wrongdoers. He wraps up by considering the role of honesty in creating solid relationships, and stresses choosing ties that actually help, to support one's own recovery and advancement.

Brigitte Bardot passed away this week in her beloved France at 91. I love how she gave zero fucks about being politically correct and spoke the truth about mass immigration, genetics, culture and sexuality. She was among the best of what France has given to the world. AmRen pays tribute.
