    Wow! Did Singer just say that obviously there is racism because blacks are disproportionately underrepresented in academia (34:30)? Even if racism is a partial explanation... correlation does not prove causation. And to say "obviously," as if anyone who disagrees is a dumb. I wouldn't expect this kind of rhetoric from a first year philosophy student.

    Looking at a small sample of the videos you've posted, GDI (which I've never heard of) was absolutely right in not including you in their ad networks. You have posted anti-trans rhetoric, and tons of other videos that are nothing more than Fox/Murdoch style disinformation wrapped up in a pretty, well edited package. Even within this video, I've heard several dog whistles that tell of your obvious biases. Putting an attractive, well spoken front man on your videos doesn't make your stories any less horrid. You have a right to tell the stories you want to tell and other organizations have a right to not support you. No one is going to get everything they wish.

    Exvangelical here. What a great and balanced conversation. I'm not aware of signs of a Christian revival anytime soon, in the UK at least. The availability of info online, (such as Alex's channel) for the first time allows people who have grown up in church like myself to think outside of the narrow band of Christianity. It's akin to the invention of the printing press that fuelled the reformation, and allowed people to read the Bible in their own language and realise how controlling and corrupt the church had become. The only thing that I can only see a thwarting a downturn in church attendance is the algorithms dishing out content which (like church) can keep you in an echo chamber of your current belief. However, people are thirsty for a 'spiritual' life. I think this is mostly a good thing which could allow a healthier way of life through tapping into the biological religious need within humans.

    Here's a ChatGPT summary: - Peter Singer has been a leading figure in ethical debates for over five decades. - Singer believes the world has moved closer to his views on life and death issues, such as voluntary euthanasia and assisted dying, which are now legal in many countries. - He notes that abortion as a woman's choice has also become more widely accepted. - Singer disagrees with the notion that the acceptance of assisted dying has led to significant backlash, particularly in Canada. - He emphasizes the importance of understanding the conditions of those seeking assisted dying, particularly in cases of terminal illness or incurable conditions. - Singer discusses the ethical complexities of surrogacy, noting concerns about exploitation in international surrogacy arrangements. - He supports genetic screening to prevent significant disabilities, arguing it is not inherently eugenicist. - Singer criticizes pro-natalism policies like those in Hungary, advocating instead for accepting immigrants to address population issues. - He acknowledges a shift away from globalism and universalism, which he attributes to rising nationalism and protectionism. - Singer emphasizes the importance of free speech and has co-founded the Journal of Controversial Ideas to promote open academic discourse. - He discusses the ethical implications of gender identity, particularly in contexts like prisons and sports, advocating for more nuanced discussions. - Singer reflects on the challenges of balancing ethical principles with pragmatic political decisions, particularly in the context of immigration and asylum policies. - He defends the utilitarian approach to COVID-19 policies, including mandatory vaccination for public activities, while acknowledging some policy errors. - Singer highlights the importance of having a purpose beyond oneself for a life well-lived. - He discusses the ethical considerations of assisted dying for dementia patients, suggesting the need for a judicial review process. - Singer expresses concerns about the rise of totalitarianism and the misuse of technology for surveillance. - He believes that greater knowledge and understanding of other cultures can motivate a shift from a tribal to a global mindset. - Main message: Peter Singer advocates for a utilitarian approach to ethical issues, emphasizing the importance of open discourse, global responsibility, and pragmatic decision-making to improve overall well-being. Holy moly, this guy is a complete lunatic.

      "lunatic" is not a valid critique ... What could constitute a critique is to say that utilitarianism is not a sustainable position by noticing the contradiction in his own opinions: discouraging reproduction rates for natives but still encouraging high reproduction rates for migrants could be one contradiction. In general is hard to defend utilitarianism since it assumes that we can foresee what's best for humanity and act according to the utility for achieving that goal. But that, at least historically, never worked.

    54:40 to 54:52 Human testing. Singer is in favour of coercive vaccine mandates but cites the importance of informed consent on experimental trials for new medical treatments. This is especially galling since the CV vaccines hurt exactly the 'young, healthy and not at risk' type of people that he proposes for these trials. Is Singer genuine in his statements? I humbly submit that he is not.

    Regarding studying race and iq differences, surely truth and reality matter most? If it is the case that different racial groups have different averages in intelligence (which it appears so), then that's probably something we should want to to know and maybe even act on as a society. Simply avoiding the question because it makes people uncomfortable isn't right in my view. You might as well just start pretending that men can be women in that case, if feelings matter to you more than facts.
