Bad Philosophy Questions!
I’ve loved your work for years! Just wondering—since you haven’t done as many public debates lately, how do you keep your skills sharp? Do you still feel like you’re growing? Thank you
1. Where will you answer this question so I can hear a response if possible. 2. Can you go into the classic concept of akrasia eg "weakness of will" and how our understanding of that concept has evolved with access to the fields of neuroscience, psychoanalysis, etc. With a particular focus on the topic of free will and how perhaps it is or isn't an outmoded concept. 3. Thank u Stefan Molyneux
Dear Stef,
Why is there something rather than nothing?
additionally as a tangential question I will also ask so as not to present the first question in a biased framing:
Why would there be nothing rather than something?
Detective Molyneux on the case~ 🕵♂️
What could you reasonably infer knowing only the following about someone:
They are confident in person, both around strangers as well as people they have a close relationship with; however, they appear specifically camera shy, despite rating in the top 10% of attractiveness?
Recommended areas to relocate while looking for a new tribe?
Can someone be low IQ and manipulative?
I have one question, first question ever. Try as I might, I cannot for the life of me find the study that I know you referenced many times.
IIRC, it was about parents lying about how often they abuse their kids, how quickly the "problematic" behavior resumes after the abuse. There were ethical questions because microphones were placed in their homes under false pretenses? Am I misremembering? Where do I find this?
What is at the edge of the universe?
Are you still a Randian. I've strayed to anarcho-Objectivism with common law chaser.
How do you balance the line of letting children be children and encouraging imagination and play, and not lying to them? For example, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.
I do have your audiobook but have only just started listening to it.
Why do Democrats lie about everything?
I think your the great thinking mind of our generation, hands down!
I have a question. As an influencer do you actually think you have a serious moral influence? If so what would that be and do you think its any different to the main stream? Also what will it do apart from causing divide?
Give me some fucking crypto ya dog
Why do people stop growing when they are comfortable and what can we do to stop it?
At what point does playing along with society become selling out?

Just Do the Right Thing! Twitter/X Space
Wednesday Night Live Twitter/X Space 27 August 2025
This Space explores philosophical questions about human nature, government, and societal structures. Stefan invites callers to engage in discussions about the implications of selfishness in humanity, examining whether such traits are innate or influenced by societal conditions. The conversation contrasts the stagnation of government control with the potential dynamism of a stateless society, addressing how moral actions are shaped by societal incentives. Callers raise questions around survival instincts and moral attribution, leading to a deeper inquiry into individual autonomy versus government influence. Stefan invokes Malthusianism to illustrate historical responses to resource scarcity, ultimately advocating for a future grounded in ethical principles, individual liberty, and voluntary societal interactions. The episode combines social critique with hopeful speculation about creating a more decentralized and prosperous society.

My Dad Demanded $100,000! CALL IN SHOW
In this episode, I engage with a caller struggling to find direction after graduating in sociology and anthropology, focusing on criminal justice. He shares his frustrations with a challenging job market and feelings of inadequacy following a promising lead that fell through. We explore how his rigid upbringing has impacted his confidence and relationship with authority. Discussing solutions, I emphasize adopting a proactive mindset and embracing skills in emerging technologies like AI. We conclude with practical steps for self-education and skill development to help him reclaim his career path.

To understand the modern world:
Your wife gets interested in a wealthy new man.
You keep telling her he’s a bad guy.
She divorces you to go live with him overseas.
He starts bringing his dangerous friends over.
She gets assaulted.
She claims she still LOVES HIM!
She screams at you that you are not a “real man” because you don’t risk life and limb to fly out and protect her.
Ladies, we warned you about marrying the government.
