00:00 Intro
02:55 Twitter Announcement
10:19 Why are people afraid of Trump?
25:42 Safety Inspections
37:26 Trump garners these huge rallies like Hitler did. He's just a watered down version of racial nationalism. Bad philosophy works at assembling massive numbers of unwavering followers to one man. How did Plato figure out how to get people to do this?
40:20 I just watched the Leonard Peikoff video released by ARI. In it Dr Peikoff said "We are more then half way towards Hitler and Lennin". I think he's right. Until Rand's answers to Kant are more widely known, we will have to drift towards hell.
43:17 Sometimes a person will plead guilty to a lesser charge, because they are afraid of losing at trial. I don't think I could plead guilty to anything, if I were totally innocent.
44:14 Your life is protected by individual rights. Is this the first principle to integrate for gaining the courage for independence? Not grasping this is what leads to irrational, animalistic fear and status seeking, agreed?
47:52 How vulnerable in your opinion is Canada to invasion from any evil dictator for any purpose at all?Or is Canadas security entirely in the hands of American stealth if there is any left?
52:14 Loaning to Ukraine
59:05 Closed vs Open Objectivism
1:05:53 Relationship between Gail Waynand and Howard Roark
1:12:23 100 years from now, how does America look? How economically free are we? And what is our attitude toward altruism? And how many Alex Epstein's do we have? At least 30?
1:16:41 Forgot this AMA was today. So have a silly question! How many clones of you would it take to fight a full grown lion and win? No weapons. Have a great weekend!
1:17:37 Is the reason Objectivism isn't resonating with people because most people today are anti intellectual savages?
1:19:02 We only truly resonate with people who haven't suppressed their feelings.
1:19:42 Would a second Biden term be so terrible? It would probably buy us more time while making the Republican party better.
1:20:40 Liberty advocates pass too many time to REACT. If we want to win, we must go on offense and PROPOSE to ADVANCE OUR GOAL, PURPOSE AGENDA
1:21:17 Why did Bush try to privatize social security and not Reagan? Bush seemed like more of a consistent altruist then Reagan.
1:23:25 I just saw a YAF lecture by Andy Puzder - the Moral Case for Free Market Capitalism. But he also defended Tariffs and Fair Trade. That's free market?
1:24:06 What's the difference between being dogmatic and absolute?
1:25:18 Carly Fiorina
1:29:46 Malevolent universe premise of characters in the Fountainhead
1:33:05 MAGA supporters strike me as not only mindless but *proudly* mindless. They value their devotion above everything else, including facts. Like a medieval priest. Someone should write an article on it.
1:34:10 Outro
