Episode Synopsis

Question 1: [2:12] - “Is there a difference between purpose and meaning? Eight years ago, Stefan put out a three-part series on ‘the meaning of life,’ which argued that there is no ‘meaning’ in life and that ‘meaning’ is a fake substitute for fulfillment. Today, it's hard to ignore that the nihilism associated with not having a greater ‘purpose’ than ourselves is risking the destruction of western civilization. If ‘meaning’ and ‘purpose’ are different concepts, how can we be sure we aren't confusing the two?”Question 2: [31:47] - “I believe the hostility of this years election cycle, the BLM inspired killing of police, the Islamic terror attacks in Europe, has greatly disturbed some of my personal training clients. Some are elderly and I am the only person they socialize with regularly. Some seem to be giving up on staying healthy because ‘America seems to be going to hell!’ Even though we as a nation have greatly improved the efficacy of health care, quality of life and length of lifespan. We seem to have become horribly regressive with all the SJW group think that infects our Media, politics and academia.”“Many of my older clients are consuming and believing this regressive mainstream media and I find it harder and harder to counter the narrative with facts. I can't help the suspicion that the mainstream media is deliberately creating a nihilistic view of life for many Americans. Particularly those of European dissent. I try to help my clients cope with diet and exercise, even martial arts and meditation but the trend continues. It seems to be accelerating!”“Is this purely psychological or does this point to something dysgenic in our DNA? Considering European/American folks collective history as bold explorer's, innovators and artists, who have filled the world with amazing beauty it would hardly seem credible that nihilism and hard-headed altruism is endemic in our people after only a couple of generations. Is this genetic? If so, how can it be countered? If it is not genetic, are there outside forces at work?”Question 3: [1:27:02] - “Having been violently jolted awake by the embarrassing display that is modern politics I have come to the conclusion that there is no truth in this world; the complete dismantling of the black American identity by charlatans and charming tyrants, the inexplicable rise of multiculturalism and the countless other forms of false altruism constantly bearing down upon us, rob me both of my sleep at night and any confidence I have in the things I've been taught.”“I think about the implications they hold with regards to human weakness and the ancient thirst for power and control. The question I have for you, Stefan, is, what is the method you utilize to determine what is real and true vs mere ancient and streamlined propaganda? How do you assess what is true from what is bullshit? How do you know who to trust?”Freedomain Radio is 100% funded by viewers like you.
