THE TRUTH ABOUT OPPENHEIMER!
Also, a reading from my new book on Peaceful Parenting!
RAGING AT THE ENDLESS HYPOCRISY OF EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING!
Why are there people who know that someone toxic has wronged you but to be the bigger person and forgive that person? When Jesus says to forgive, does he mean to automatically forgive or only give it to those who earned it?
I remember the show you did about the bombing of Japan and about how they tried to surrender beforehand but we didn't accept it cause it wasn't unconditional. They wanted to keep their emperor, which they ended up keeping anyway. I found that show really angering.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki weren't in the top 5 most destroyed cities, I find that interesting
In your Barbie review you mention across history women picked men they chose to reproduce with. A (female) friend of mine claimed that's false, that men could pick their wives or decide to live single, but that women were never given that choice. Is there any truth to that or is it pure propaganda?
What do you think the ideological root of “toxic masculinity” is?
You had mentioned that your Peaceful Parenting book was so far filled or fueled with anger. That surprised me, I thought it be a love story. Although in hindsight it does make sense that you'd be very angry writing it. Knowing what happens to kids ( and myself ) is rage inducing.
Can someone have a good childhood and still end up bad? My father says that my brother had a good childhood but he is violative, and condescending.
I'm so looking forward to this book. I love your books more than anything, Fiction or Non-Fiction. Your writing is so good. I can tell already this book will transform me, this Steel-Man is great. It does remind me of The President/Roman.
Can't put a price on the type of parent Stefan has made me. Can't wait for this

Understanding that love and criticism can go hand in hand 💭 Constructive feedback is actually a sign of respect and care. Don't confuse honesty with shame—it's about helping each other grow.

Stefan Molyneux critiques "The Sopranos," praising its storytelling while questioning female character portrayals and anti-Christian themes. He contrasts Tony Soprano’s violence with Carmela’s suburban life, exploring gender dynamics and moral complexity. Ultimately, he invites listeners to rethink narratives shaping our views on morality.

The concept of Universal Consequentialism 😱
A year ago, I presented a different view of consequentialism in this community, which is to devide the concept into rational and irrational consequentialism.
Here's a different approach to explain what consequentialism actually is, based on an example Stefan is providing in his book "Peaceful Parenting", chapter 11, page 153, timestamp 38:19 in the audio book. Quote:
"Since you are all very clever readers, you will be replying to me in your mind something along the lines of this: 'Ah, you say, Mr. Philosopher, that no one can accurately predict the future, but you also state that hitting children has negative outcomes!'
That is certainly true – both that I make that claim, and that hitting children does have generally negative outcomes.
However, we do not judge the morality of hitting children based upon positive or negative outcomes.
For instance, we know that state control of the economy leads to massive inefficiencies – but we don't judge the morality of state control of ...
