Battling Midwits!
In the latest episode of "Wednesday Night Live," hosted on the 4th of October, Stefan Molyneux dives deep into the intricacies of "Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs." He candidly shares his perspective on the current state of philosophical discussion, emphasizing the proliferation of superficial content designed to prop up mediocre intellects. Molyneux criticizes the misuse of academic knowledge, suggesting that many merely regurgitate university-taught concepts without genuine understanding or depth. He particularly points out the pretentiousness of certain individuals who employ these surface-level concepts to project an image of profundity.
Highlighted Quotes:
"There's an entire industry out there of cannon fodder nonsense that is designed to prop up midwit brains and make them seem deep."
"And just all of this nonsense is put out there as cannon fodder for midwits to impress idiots with how deep they are."
"It's just ways that people can pretend to be deep because they scraped a few things out of their university nonsense wagon, right? Social contract, man."
"But it's all a bunch of stuff that just flows out like this slow, brain-deadening, soul-eating, tapioca crap syllable idiot fest."

The Proof for Universally Preferable Behavior expressed in Anglo-Saxon English
The showing-true for All-World Best-Chosen Ways of Acting (UPB) goes like this:
First, UPB is a frame-work for checking good-deed thoughts. It says right-doing is a kind of all-folk best acts that are true and steady, like knowledge-seeking ways. These acts are not must-do like breathing, but if you want to live or speak true, you must choose them. They stand on mind-strength and world-truths, not god-tales or might-makes-right. Good-deed rules must hold for all folk, all times, all spots—no outs or half-ways. They must fit together without fight, and show in real life like killings or takings being shunned by most.
The showing starts by throwing out bad bases: You can't get good-rules from just living-through, from what-happens-next, from high-sky worlds, from king-laws, or from hurt-feels. No straight bridge from "is" to "should." Begin with thinking no good-rules are, then build with mind-logic.
Key grounds: Deeds show choices (like speaking shows you like truth over lies). Fighting against UPB uses ...
