Freedomain with Stefan Molyneux

I'm thrilled to announce that I will be speaking at "A Night For Freedom" in Washington, DC on February 24th. Tickets are now available and I look forward to seeing everybody there! http://www.anightforfreedomdc.comQuestion 1: [1:19] - “My question surrounds femininity, and the despised feeling I get when a woman who is feminine comes across my path. I feel like I have to hold the door open for her. It's just someone else's needs before mine, as my needs from childhood were so marginalized. They get what they want while not even trying. I look at women who have their men taking care of them with such jealousy and anger. I want a man to do that for me and not feel like I'm a burden for them or troubling them. I used to beat myself up emotionally for wanting that. I even so much wanted to be a boy so I could be looked at as strong, that I could take care of myself. Or to make myself feel better I would be like the woman who has her man taking care of her can't get the money and is ditsy or is manipulating men cause they turn on the stupid when men are around.”“It's a torrent of thoughts and emotions, like I'm not pretty enough or that I don't take care of myself enough. I always have dirt under my fingernails. At times when I embrace my femininity I feel in alignment with the truest part of myself. But I worry because work in my mind takes the back burner. I loose my work ethic and all I want is babies and a peaceful tidy home. How do I be so great he can't say no? I am a 29 year old woman who has grown up in the wreckage of third wave feminism. I wish to be more feminine but I despise and am jealous of woman who are. I have been made to carry heavy burdens. If I fully embrace my femininity will I loose my drive, logic, reason and motivation? And how do I become more feminine?”Question 2: [1:54:30] - “I am a 27 year old female, and my partner of 4 years wants to have children in the next few years. I am committed to him and have no plans to jump ship, but I have deep misgivings about the idea of having children. I was raised in a very isolated and dysfunctional environment by a chronically ill single mother, who herself was severely abused and neglected in her youth. I am deeply aware I am not cut out to be a mother - I am utterly terrified I will unintentionally and unexpectedly behave the way that my mom did. I couldn't live with myself if I screwed up a child. Through listening to the show, I do take seriously what you have said about committed women approaching their 30s needing to think seriously about children, but every time I do, I go cold with terror. Please help, even if for my partner's sake, as I do not want him to waste his life or be put in a terrible position if I turn out to be unfit for motherhood.”Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

Question 1: [1:42] – “I’ve watched some of your videos on automation and Universal Basic Income. You did not mention the critical component that robots can think and learn. Unlike the shifts in the job market from the past that were based on physical skill (i.e. systematic routines done by humans) robots will eventually be able to take jobs that require human level thought. Despite my libertarian ideology, it concerns me that in the future there may come a time where the majority of jobs, including ones that require thought, will no longer require humans. What happens when robots have higher IQs than human beings? Will humans be obsolete much like how the horse became obsolete with an increase in transportation technology? What is your take on the thinking aspect of automation? What could be a solution in a free society?”Question 2: [43:47] - “The personal development seminar community, from Les Brown, Anthony Robbins, Napoleon Hill, Dale Carnegie, Zig Zigler and Jim Rohn, espouse the ideas of personal growth, but like in EVERY industry, politics is a taboo. I was curious if you could challenge my belief that ‘Politics and Personal Development Go Hand-In-Hand’ as Capitalism requires you to believe in yourself and Socialism requires you to feel victimized?”Question 3: [2:26:20] - “I have wanted to have a comic published one day with my name on it since I was five, but I keep having these thoughts of failure that scare me back into wanting to go for a path that is stable, but boring. I'm currently in college for Computer Science, which I could do, but I doubt I will find anywhere near the pleasure of art sitting behind a desk programming. I tell myself that it is a safety net to keep me from dying if I fall from the tight rope of the art world, but there is a part of me that wants the stability a CS degree can bring. In contrast, the art world isn't stable which gets me worried that I will fail miserably and not get to accomplish my dream in life. Most of my worries have come from this fear exactly; the fear that I will die without accomplishing my dream. I start thinking about how hard it will be to get there and try to get some steps in order so I know what to do, but then the fear of failure at each step becomes an ominous cloud in my mind from which I run away, back to the comfort of stability.”Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

President Donald Trump's latest immigration proposal calls for a pathway to citizenship for 1.8 million illegal immigrants, $25 billion in funding for the wall and an end to both chain migration and the visa lottery program. While many Trump supporters are incredibly angry with the President's amnesty proposal, a surprising number of Democrats and illegal alien amnesty groups also have rejected the deal. Greisa Martinez Rosas, Advocacy Director for United We Dream and potential beneficiary of the Dream Act, said: “Let’s call this proposal for what it is: a white supremacist ransom note. Trump and Stephen Miller killed DACA and created the crisis that immigrant youth are facing. They have taken immigrant youth hostage, pitting us against our own parents, Black immigrants and our communities in exchange for our dignity. To Miller and Trump’s white supremacist proposal, immigrant youth say: No."Article: https://unitedwedream.org/2018/01/immigrant-youth-trumps-white-supremacist-proposal-no/Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

Question 1: [1:19] – “In Death by DACA, Stefan asks a question that comes up in my life often when discussing the topic of America as a nation, culture and Government with anyone: Do children inherit things their parents obtained illegally? Stefan goes on to say ‘Do Bernie Madoffs Children get to keep the profits of his Ponzi scheme? Well, no, I mean, it all has to go back.’ I’d like to ask Stef, who truly owns America? The reason the answer to this question is important to me is that when discussing this topic in my personal life I often find myself unclear of how the European colonialist settlers have a valid claim to America when they acquired the land through initiating coercion against the indigenous people who were already here. I believe that clarifying the truth on this matter will help to bring unity between individuals and create a greater incentive to refrain from using the force of the government to resolve the cultural and political conflicts that are still present in our present society. On a personal level it will give me more confidence when facing the aggression and hostility that this topic can manifest when I’m debating the subject.”Question 2: [20:10] – “Most philosophers and at least a plurality of scientists (Stephen Jay Gould being one) say that we cannot rationally believe or disbelieve in God. Given social evidence that Christianity (especially when not State sponsored) has led to higher living standards and more freedoms while using non-violent means to curb social excesses, like ostracism, while atheistic States have been many times more brutal than the worst State-Church unions, and the fact that molecular biology and biochemistry have raised more questions than answers regarding origin of life science, could there be enough circumstantial evidence to change your mind?”Question 3: [39:21] – “I am a 24-year-old woman and I am seeing more and more of my young cousins, 18-21, doing absolutely nothing. These are young men and women raised in middle class, happy homes. They refuse to work, even if they have gone through college or a trade school. My worry is that they will never do anything with their lives despite their intelligence, how do I explain to them the importance of work and economic success?”Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.
