The Machiavellians
Registrace 10. 09. 2021
I make videos about philosophy and psychology because I believe that philosophy and psychology are our best hope for solving the major problem of our time. I believe with philosophy and psychology working together we will have the best chance of overcoming nihilism, which as Nietzsche rightly observed, is the problem of our age.
My goal is to show people that philosophy has relevance in their personal lives. Philosophy is something that is practiced, not studied. To live philosophically means having a singular will to life, which aims at constant growth and self-overcoming, and induces us to take on challenging and rewarding adventures in the pursuit of knowledge and self-knowledge.
Philosophy needs to be returned to its rightful place in our society. Instead of being an academic pursuit it should assume a central role in our lives.

Only Republicans were used as exa.ples of doublerhink. Guessing the author is a Democrat.
Trudeau is not republican, neither is Obama
No atheists have a christian morality. Christians didnt invent "dont steal or kill" and is definitely not required to have those morals.... is it? Lets try the socratic method: why do you think that christianity is the basis for morals?
Thanks God Biden can't do doublespeak or even speak...
You're so biased it sounds like you have ulterior motives
Such big words. You must be really smart.
Does it really, Soren Kierkegaard? Does it really never occur to anyone... ever....??
'Underlying beliefs we are never really aware of' is really quite an insidious way to state that idea... I don't hold any such things.
Thank you. Give us wisdom and make us think.
That quote on belief is utter bullshit. How can you truly believe something unless you've seen convincing evidence? In short, you can't! Belief without evidence is nothing short of credulity.
Sounds like Trump lingo
I fish quite often, men or people in general often stop by interested in my catch or technique etc I ask them if they fish or why don’t they do it with their kids or mates… sadly the response is to busy with work. Blind , deaf and compliant Sheeple. From Australia
While I know this was just used as an example of how assertions may be framed, the statements starting at 11:40 are flawed. "Many people call themselves atheists while accepting a Christian morality...." Any morals shared between atheists and "Christian morality" is simply a reflection of general human morality that Christianity incorrectly claims as a product of Christianity. A good Socratic question here would be "What is 'Christian morality' and how is it unique to Christianity?"
The Creator told me: Your beliefs don't mean anything to me. I received that. Of value is realization of existence now, everywhere.
The Socratic method requires good faith, good reasoning , and good education. How we doing?
The fundamental flaw with the Socratic method is that it requires thinking, and thinking is surprisingly hard - especially doing it properly.
Accidentally exposed self. What do now?
Ok children… now let’s turn to channel FOX for an example of how it’s used daily.
Lmao for real
“Love is love” “It is what it is” freedom isn’t free”
“Welcome back in” not welcome back not you’re welcome but “of course” not I’m stealing from my boss and giving you something under the table but “I got you” “I hooked you up” “oh that’s so dope” not that’s so good ad infinitum .
When you say atheists accept a Christian morality, you understand that to claim a god decided our morality, you should first demonstrate that such a god exists.
“It’s all good” “whatever works” “I appreciate you”
Thanks, comrade! That video was double PLUS good. 😊
We actually have a "woman" Supreme Court Justice who CAN'T DEFINE the word "woman". The Left is and has been using this manipulative technique for decades.
I love your phrase “task tornadoes”. 💕 😘 🙏
The biggest irony of this system is that by forcing the people to never _think,_ by having them perpetually be busy, they eventually crash through burnout and/or depression. I got hit by both, and the only way for me to get out was to spend _four years contemplating what got me stuck._ Suffice it to say, that sure as hell backfired for the 'powers that be'... And wasted a massive chunk of my life.
Social justice, political correctness, baby with fetus, words salad, etc..?
Your example of jargon is actually gobbledygook, and your video example of gobbledygook Dr. Peterson had no audio because peterson never uses gobbeldygook.
Nigerian-Americans, Ghanaian-Americans, and Americans have median annual incomes of $72,577, $72,089 and $59,995 respectively. African still love the arts and sports, something that Asians have neglected.
Your video falsely insinuates by pairing the concept you've presented with a video clip of a character in he limelight, thereby being manipulative, willfully or not, in your own right. Why not present your concepts of manipulation one by one with actual examples of these limelight characters exhibiting the behavior.
🤣
Life's too damn short to not know anything.
If you try it. You get accused of Sealioning.
It's great knowing im living the right way, I think haha
Agreed, socialism is the logical enactment of Christianity. Christians should be socialists. Hey, Christians, Trump is not the right direction.
I had to pause at the doublethink explanation. There's a snapshot of a page out of Orwell's book that says "War is Peace - Freedom is Slavery - Ignorance is Strength". And while every one of those three statements obviously contradict themselves and "cannot" be true, there are certainly manners of perspective and context where they actually make complete sense. Challenge me to provide examples and I'll give them to you. I just find it odd that the way in which I see the world allows me to view conflicting statements in ways that they aren't necessarily false. There are lies that hold so much truth and truths expressing overall lies. How do we combat THAT as a people?
Give one example of how War is Peace.
@@johngalush8790 That was a knee-jerk response. But wars are generally fought with the objective of ascertaining a state of peace, are they not?
How can an agnostic "believe the God's to be wise"?
not knowing doesn't mean you can't believe in fairy tales. in fact that's the only thing you know, that you do not know. so might as well roll with your best guess. his was god. mine sometimes is too
i hate to say or use god in any debate, but i do sometimes. cuz it's logical interpretation of the intangible. maybe that was his thing too
“That which is done well is done soon enough.”
Where did you find the art?
Partial truth, half-truth, deception are all lies. We are to be truthful. I.e full of truth. Otherwise, from John 8:44 NKJV, "You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. "
I don't even have time to watch this entire video, even if that's what I want to do

Gender identity = doublespeak.... bottom surgery for genital mutilation
FFS! Just read the preface of "1984". It was not meant as science fiction or as a futuristic novel. it's a comment on 1948. And though Orwell probably didn't intend that it would, it says more about the West than it does about the communist bloc at that time.
Brandon and his vapid sycophantic minions are who Orwell warned us about
Then why are you using this inflated language?
I think gambling on current events is the love of testing opinions. Twitter could be fixed by implementing a betting market. It should have leaderboards for each category of questions
FUCK THIS IS GENIUS!! It's like mixing both my (and I assume yours) love for gambling and love for debate! If this ever exists you'd only have to be cautious about the social credit system allegations lmao
Debating the definition of a word like 'courage' is completely useless
11:40 What do you mean by a "Christian morality?"
The Socratic method is not going to fix Twitter. It is way too slow and non-emotional
How very subtle of you to discuss gobbledygook while showing Jordan Peterson, without saying anything about Jordan Peterson, but to those who know anything about Peterson they will know you are not only describing Peterson, you are accurately describing him. Well done!
Actually is was lazy biased obfuscation . Totally the opposite of well done, more like half baked .
