NICE FEEDBACK FROM A FREEDOMAIN LISTENER FROM 2013
The show helped when me and Stefan talked a while back. Stefan had me on the "FDR_2563_Wednesday_Show_18_Dec_2013" show and it helped me change my life. He recommended that I, "take myself seriously" and I did. I stopped spending time with people who I had empty relationships with (parents, brothers, friends) and moved away from them and stopped being emotionally dead. I truly came to life after I left those relationships, I feel happiness, love and joy now. I am now happily married with a job in the engineering field all because of his content. It wasn't just that specific show it's' just that every single show he put out seems relevant to my life and there's golden nuggets in each one that blow my mind and help me in my pursuit of self growth and being a good person. I would definitely not be alive if it were not for him, the talk we had and his content, he saved my life.

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 ...
