The Truth About Mysticism
IT IS A GATEWAY TO MENTAL ILLNESS!
Listener objections:
I also think it's perfectly reasonable to not continue paying attention to Stef if this basic query is not responded to. I owe a donation when I'm back in work. But as far as following further I do not see the reason to respect someone that so fragrantly neglects a rational thought process.
I've always thought Stef's arguments in this area are weak. Such as the assumption of atheist as categorically correct when I understand it to be of the same quality as climate change science (the mainstream encourages it so that would be likely right?)
I never wanted to take this up with him because I did not feel like it was an important part of the entire platform. Like, he mostly offers extremely positive powerful information. I do not feel like Stef coming over to thinking astrology is legitimate would improve his platform necessarily.
But I responded to this provocation.
I do not have a platform for my own so there is no opportunity to invite Stef to a formal debate on the subject. Any such thing I would make sure I had all my ducks in a row first. Rechecking and specifically sourcing many points. This may take a few weeks.

I HATE HAPPY COUPLES! Freedomain Call In
Hi Stef,
I called in ~6 months ago. I was not doing very well, with me losing my first employment and the "business" I was a part of not doing very well. You gave some direction about sticking with my at-the-time mentor to establish a new career, but I can say that when I called you was definitely not only a bad time, but also quite ineffective, given the stress and dissociation I had to maintain daily. I was focused entirely on the "how" in our previous conversation and was not seeking answers to pressing questions. The result was a likely frustrating and forgettable experience as I brought my anxieties into your life. I seek to remedy that but also to have a genuine, honest conversation, which is still very rare for me. I have some questions that time away from the death-spiral of my inner parents has illuminated and I'm seeking your valuable input.
Things have changed since July, with the ultimate step (ironically) being to do less. I ditched the gurus and mentors, and pulled back from all of the ...

Expertise: If you freeform for 2 hours on US foreign policy, you are implicitly communicating expertise. I don't know much about Armenian history, so I can't do 2 hours, or anything close.
If someone says: You do not have the rigor of an expert, the answer is not to say: I never claimed to be an expert. The answer is: What is an EXPERT?
Credentialism is dead. Douglas Murray has an undergrad in English.
Big things experts got wrong.
- COVID / VACCINE
- GLOBAL WARMING
- MELTING POT
- IQ RESEARCH
- Psychotropics
- Replication crisis in science
- Not moving heaven and earth to find the source of autism - although diagnosis has gone up with government money for autism
- Media bias - they are 'experts' who claim to be unbiased, and are ridiculously biased
- Feminism - supposed to be about female equality, had morphed into female supremacy, 58.6%...

CALL IN SHOW Topic Detail: My life is spinning out of control and it culminated with what I hope is a rock bottom moment this weekend.
