Why is UPB good?
UPB, or Universally Preferable Behavior, is considered good because it is based on the concept of a universal standard of truth, accuracy, and consistency. It asserts that there are behaviors that are universally preferable and that these behaviors cannot self-contradict. In other words, UPB promotes ethical principles that are consistent and applicable to all individuals. It provides a framework for evaluating and understanding moral choices and actions.
Why is truth good?
Truth is considered good because it allows us to accurately understand and navigate the world around us. When we seek truth, we strive for a correspondence between our beliefs and reality. Truth enables us to make informed decisions, solve problems, and pursue knowledge. It is through truth that we can build trust, establish meaningful relationships, and foster cooperation. In essence, truth is valued because it aligns us with reality and promotes clarity, understanding, and the pursuit of knowledge.
Can stealing be UPB?
Stealing cannot be Universally Preferable Behavior (UPB) because stealing involves the unwanted transfer of property. If stealing were UPB, it would mean that stealing is something that should be desired and accepted under all circumstances, at all times, and in all locations. However, if you want someone to take your property, it is not considered theft. For example, if you put your garbage in a bin by the side of the road and the garbage man takes it away, it is not theft because you wanted them to take it. Therefore, stealing cannot be universally preferable behavior as it contradicts the concept of unwanted property transfer.

Should You Save Marriages? Freedomain Listener Questions
In this episode, we explore complex familial relationships through a listener's struggles with anger and resentment towards their mother. I stress the importance of free will in decision-making and the need for personal accountability in addressing difficult emotions. We discuss the role of community in marital issues, using Stephen Crowder's divorce as a lens, and examine how societal values shape relationship choices.
Additionally, we touch on the influence of religion and philosophy on moral development and the implications of biohacking and longevity on emotional connections. Finally, we consider the effects of parentlessness and societal structures on fertility rates, encouraging listeners to actively engage with their relationship complexities and submit questions for future exploration.

Jordan Peterson vs Atheists!
Wednesday Night Live 28 May 2025
This livestream mixes humor with serious discussions on societal norms and issues. Starting with a bizarre sinus infection story, the host critiques crime governance and highlights Britain's first private police force. The conversation covers declining youth literacy, political accountability, and the absurdity of the "autopen." Lighthearted segments on "Florida Man" memes and social interaction dynamics lead to a listener phone-in addressing self-worth in relationships. The host blends humor with commentary on mental health and evolving attraction, concluding with an invitation for further audience engagement.
