Warren Smith reacts to Asmongold reacting to him. Is this the face of a logical genius?
Oh, I launched a Locals Page, here is the link:
secretscholars...
I recognized pretty quickly that Asmongold has really good critical thinking skills and he's good at explaining the concepts. Like most people on the internet, I don't agree with him all the time, but disagreeing with someone should never stop you from listening to their point of view.
I actually found his vids through a reaction vid that disagreed with his opinion on something.... and ever since, I've actually been tuning into his channel. He has some good perspectives on things
Yeah he has some takes I don't agree with but at least he has reasoning behind his thoughts. Of course he has his own bias as does everyone as well.
asmon like this guy are pathological liars that use victim card marketting full of made up shlt to propel themselves into parasocial victim sympathy over lies
Asmongold plays the cynical card too much whenever he's scared of making an argument from principle. The topic might be about morality, and to avoid being judgemental, Asmon just does the cheap "it doesn't matter what's right or wrong, what matters is you can't fully prevent people from doing the wrong thing." Those are the times when his chat and comments completely turn on him. But it's okay, we're not looking at him for moral clarification, he doesn't have to be a paragon of virtue all the time.
I don’t really watch the news but somehow I am again through Asmongold.
“So this guy got fired from his job, for doing his job.” …. Yep. That’s the message and it’s intended.
where did he get fired from?
He wasn't fired, he made this all up and you are just idiots listen and believe crowd that gets taken for a ride
His channel is easy to find
The worst part about this, is that he probably got fired because a bunch of Karen's that also didn't look up the facts themselves probably complained about it to the school board. Which ended in this result. It's sad to see that teachers that are actually teaching critical thinking instead of having their students become a bunch of mindless drones are the ones that suffer from a small percentage of really loud uneducated adults that have nothing better to do than whine and complain.
@@Urathe This seems like the most likely scenario.
He was fired for Teaching a Student HOW to think, instead of WHAT to think...
This is the worst timeline...
That is no longer acceptable. Parents need to wake up and abandon the broken, corrupt institution.
what was his previous job?
Schools have never been interested in HOW to think. Kids would be lucky to get that even at University these days.
It is very much against the interests of the System to teach it's compliant drones how to think.
@@gregorius.dentanghe was a teacher
@@TheNutmegStitcher It's been going on since the 60s.
I always hated how people discredits Asmon simply because of how he lives...
i bet the smartest men in history were messy asf. Not mutually exclusive...
I agree. Who gives a fuck. I'd live like an animal with his kinda money.
He has surprisingly smart takes. But he also has incredibly brain dead takes. I'd say he is still the person he seems by how he lives, living in squallor like a rodent doesnt make you stupid.
Diogenes would definitely not have approved.
Let's be clear. nothing happenned, it's youtube, full of ishmael people propulsing their career with victim card marketting. You are just basic level listen and believe crowd.
Your teaching wasn't compromised, the school required you to compromise yourself.
Well said
The school administration and several teachers themselves are already compromised.
It’s over used as an insult with no basis but the truth is that these people would have made good N*zis in that era of Germany.
That’s because if questioned why they do that things the general response is “I was just doing my job” or “I was just responding to what others wanted”.
And that means doing anything to punish the free thinkers or the just.
Oh my god it’s BERK
I just got the biggest nostalgic memory rush seeing this picture.
Exactly, most of the teachers are activists posing as teachers, their priority is activism and anyone who tries to teach gets targeted and disposed of.
@@paulofaquin And here comes the conspiracy!
It wasn't until the end of the video that I realized I was not on Asmons channel. I was waiting for David Attenborough to yell "Context!".
DUDE same 😂 😂 😂

May the circle jerk bromance flourish!
Ow, he is all over this. Its about to go down. looking forward to that chat.

4:43 "Because I had other endeavors on the outside of school..." - Punishing a teacher for teaching in his spare time is about the most ludicrous thing I could imagine.

asmon like this guy are pathological liars that use victim card marketting full of made up shlt to propel themselves into parasocial victim sympathy over lies, this guy was never ever fired, this story is 200% made up
That's the west for you
A lot of municipal, state and gov jobs have a list of fire-able offenses. I work at a muni and I know there is some vague clause in my contract that does NOT explicitly prohibit being a content creator, but strongly suggests that any negative attention from social media could be grounds for termination.
Personally, I wouldn't risk it bc my job is dope and I make bank. But social media has def complicated issues surrounding employment. I don't know what the solution is, because employers should probably have the ability fire ppl that hurt their rep. If I ran a construction biz and one of my guys started wearing dresses and makeup on the job site, I'd want to be able to fire them.
However, if they want to do that on their own time, that's none of my business. But when ppl have an online presence, their employer could suffer a negative association. In this case, the school is lame af, but I just don't know how you legislate laws that draw appropriate boundaries for each side of this issue. It's messy.
@RustCole01 fair points made. I am not sure if you watched Warren's previous video made immediately after getting fired.
In the previous video, he states that he met with a supervisor and lawyer and had emails. The meeting explained what was and was not allowed on social media. According to his previous video, he received confirmation after going on Dr Drew and other podcasts, that he did Not "cross the line".
My take on the situation is that the email and meeting was just for show. IMO, the decision was made to fire him at the end of the school year, no matter what. The months between the original JK Rowling video and getting fired was just a fishing expedition to gather evidence that he "crossed the line" on social media, as well as buy time to let things cool down, so firing him could not be directly linked to the JK Rowling video. If Warren did cross any lines, they would have evidence that it was intentional and that would be enough for an immediate termination.
So far as what you said about government and municipal policies, consider that a lawyer was involved, and someone was paid to watch and monitor all the podcasts Warren went on, plus monitoring all of Warren's social media. This cuts into someone's budget. Basically, it is cheaper And easier just to fire an employee, rather than wait an extended period of time on the chance that a line be crossed publicly that would require immediate termination. It's pre-emptive and precautionary measures. IMO, the policies that "allow social media as long as..." is lip service to the 1st amendment and window dressing to make supervisors appear fair. It's basic "cover your ass" tactics. IRL is what Warren faced. Termination plus an NDA (non disclosure agreement) to sweep everything under the rug.
Apparently, Warren took the meetings and instructions in good faith, which is why he felt blind sided at getting fired. He also brings up the lack of support or curiosity of his peers regarding his social media presence. I think it might be likely, that his peers were pulled aside and warned that Warren would soon be terminated, so his peers should stay away and not bring up the topic and to notify a supervisor if he did "disrupt the workplace" by discussing his social media appearances. (Or his peers might be next in line to get fired.)
For me, I would be curious to find out the policies of the school board in charge of his former school, to see if it had strong DEI (diversity equity and inclusion) leanings to protect the endangered LGBT community. Critical thinking skills would eventually prove critical gender theory as false and unscientific.
Allowing progressives to claim the word "gender" to describe people, instead of maintaining use of the word "sex" is when they won.
I have no idea if Warren is straight or not (nor do I care), but it was easy for him to be fired as a white male because "equity" doesn't apply in practice as political pundits preach it.
Warren, if you read this, you are young, bro. You will bounce back having Earned XP. Please be extremely cynical about any HR or supervisor "being on your side". Everyone is replaceable, from generals to presidents. There is always someone else waiting in line. The irony of the situation is that the US public school system was designed to train people to become thoughtless workers. They wanted you to be a thoughtless worker, another cog in the machine. Another brick in the wall. They did not want you to actually teach or be an example of critical thinking. This is why Greece voted to exile Socrates. How dare you follow his footsteps and spread his message and methods? It's a threat to "democracy". Just saying. You are in good company. 😉
It's a loss for the students and that community.
Asmongold has a lot of interesting takes, I may not agree with him all the time, but he always tries to give arguments to his points, and I truly appreciate that. Whether he is wrong or not, he TRIES and that is almost infinite more work than most dumb streamers do, like Hasan Piker. However, he is based af.
hasan piker has me almost giving up on the Human race ... a snake-oil salesman who literally throws tantrums like a child and has a vocabulary that contains nothing but swear words.
Agreed. That's how i look at him. And i still enjoy watching his videos when i don't agree with him. Pretty much i see him as being quite logical. Which sadly seems to be pretty rare and even worse frowned upon now. It's frowned upon because some of the ideals being pushed today require people to just straight up deny facts. A lot of it is just based off spreading the info, whether it be true or rational or not. And then shaming people or even worse, when they don't go along with it. I enjoy Asmon because he is NEVER going to just go along with it.
I have watched some of his opinions has of recently and since I was so out of touch with everything that is happening as of late since I am a boomer who doesnt use social networks at all besides youtube and discord to play with friends, and also the fact that I live in a third world country so we dont ear a lot about this kind of things once I realized how narrow of view people have become or can be in the internet I think it adds a lot of value for this type of creators that even if are wrong they can make you think from a different point of view and often use logic and can see things that one can miss at first glance
I agree with Asmon much more than I don't, but even when I don't agree, I can understand how he came to that conclusion. It's not like he's had some crazy leap in logic to get there. By contrast, Hasan _frequently_ engages in some crazy leaps in logic. Like his impression that missile hit that hospital was definitely from the IDF because of the whistle sound it made... which wasn't even congruent with the clip he used as evidence.
The amount of idiots that he has in his chat is mind blowing. They really just click send before they think about what they’ve just typed out. I don’t agree with everything he says either but because I’m a grown ass man, I deal with it or respond to it like an adult. 👍🏼
Asmon's reaction to this video incoming

6:24 minutes yep that's an hour of content
Then his editor swooping in for the wombo combo.
@@DanteVerde-pt9zcafter the editor cuts it down lol. What a couple of dudes. Love the content.
Asmon has a shockingly high amount of good takes.
He's pragmatic and honest...two traits not often found in a person with reach...
@@MadafakinRioHe’s not perfect, just like the rest of us!
@@MadafakinRio he is more right than wrong in my opinion but whether is is or not is irrelevant. he at least uses critical thinking.
@@MadafakinRio Nothing to do with baldness. He comes off as a bit of an idiot but when he gets serious he cuts to the core of the issue.

I was not expecting that crossover :D Amazing
A conversation between you two would boost your voice to a whole new level!
i was expecting it, tribalism between victim card trust fund kid making things up
Smartest man on the internet? No.
But Asmon definitely does have a decent head on his shoulders.
As does the editor of his clips channel.
Editor of the clips channel should be president of the US.
Imagine fact checking all the politicians, that'd be great.
@@oopomopoo Press secretary. I liked kayleigh mcenany when she had the job.
asmon like this guy are pathological liars that use victim card marketting full of made up shlt to propel themselves into parasocial victim sympathy over lies
Smartest man on the internet? Of course not. One of the smartest "creators" on the internet? Without question. The man literally presents hypotheses', the arguments for and against said hypotheses', and conveys said arguments in such a way that any dumbass can understand them. All on the fly without a script, without reference material and without so much as a stutter. I don't always agree with his conclusions, but he has an impressively agile mind and a talent for critical thought. Oration as well, if bro were a rapper he would be the rap god. Dude can spit complete, logical sentences off the cuff faster than most people can process when he gets rolling.
@@Tsukaani Like him or not, his speaking skills is impressive af. Especially like you said he can explain things to dumbest people on earth using video game scenarios lol

@@hogandromgool2062 My brain actually works pretty well, those chosenite people allways use fake victimhood sympathy to launch their fake ass career online, as a marketting sympathy ploy, every single time. You learn to recognize this pattern from the pathological liar shnozebergs
It's funny because the 'accept everyone' people try to argue his points by making fun of his appearance, how he lives, and what he probably smells like. You know when people attack other with things like that? When they know they are wrong and have nothing logical to argue their point.
The left accept everyone as long as they agree. As soon as a trans person says they have regrets, the same community they thought were family that would support them through anything instead throw them in the trash. They a use them of never being trans, doing it for attention, they should unalkve themselves because real trans people bla bla.
It's rough. Feel free to look up trans regret stories and then coming out to the community they thought were friends.
All is well until you disagree.
To be fair... He has one of the most psychotic lifestyles conceivable. I like him a lot though.
@@Connor-es5ry think of him has that old guy that lives in the streets but is a master in kung fu, or like mister Miyagi from the karatekid, they are the last person that you would expect to be masters of x or Y, there is a reason for the "never judge a book by his cover"
Yet they never said he was wrong!
@@BARDI77 that's a good way to say it 😂
"If you publish, you perish." What a terrifying concept!
Yes, especially when it used to be the other way around, as Warren said. I would just say that it wasn't always about innovating (although I support the ideal!). Actually it was a bit of a chore for some in academia, they just had to publish to remain visible, stay 'relevant', get invited to meetings, maybe get grants, etc.
there was a black economist at Harvard who's name i don't recall, who was told not to publish his findings as they went against societies preconception that police killings were targeting black people
@@corberus3119 Roland Fryer
i think he said, “publish or perish”
0:25 I like that he used "logical" and none of the other words/expression that are polarizing and egotistical. :]
The notion that employees represent the employer outside of work, unless specifically and solely hired for the job of representation (eg. being "the face of" something), is peak "evil capitalism". And running in a diametrically opposite direction to ideas of individualism, upon which "good capitalism" is based on.
Ayup. This is a based take for sure. When I was young in the 1970s the rule at work was 'don't bring your politics to work', not 'you can't be political at all' which is really what many companies are now doing.
At my own place of employment they are supporting all the current stupid gender rules like it is de-facto truth, which it is nothing of the sort.. Since I started working until now things have done a 180 degree turn toward a high level of authoritarian behavior on the part of businesses.
I feel like my job for the last 10 years has been a front row seat to a theater of the absurd.. except I can't leave the theater and everyone is playing for keeps.
The regulatory state actually expects this.. which is not really suprising. Regulatory agencies are at the center of fascist states. The rules passed don't require evidence or even previous occurrences of wrongdoing. Just some regulator that decides a rule is needed.
I would disagree, this only happened as the "new public management" structure AND social media took hold some 15-25 years ago.
If you have Facebook etc. and put in the timeline "I work here, for this company".
Every moron in society will target the company when the individual is out of line, hence the company must hold the individual responsible.
This is not a "capitalism" problem, but a lazy problem where individuals themselves put work and private in the same basket making it impossible to differentiate between the two.
Like this teacher is himself to blame for the loss of his writings, although he should have been allowed to extract the files.
He made the mistake of putting private in the basked exclusive to work.
@@torgrimhanssen5100 I mentioned "evil capitalism" because I see business personification at work here. As in having a business with a person's attributes, such as freedom of association. And I see that as the main reason we have unfair markets, including the job market. A fair market is a prerequisite for "good capitalism". So I think we'd be much better off if we regulated this issue, somewhat commodified employment, so the morons would know that the employer's hands are tied and there's no point in screeching at them.
And I agree wholeheartedly about the work issued devices, I commented on the original video. I see it all the time and basically, yeah, people who don't figure out that a couple of hundred bucks can save them from a lot of misery have no one but themselves to blame.
I think the problem here is people. Companies are "forced" to act like this, because people nowadays are stupid and attack companies for what their employees say and do. So in fear of suffering popular retaliation, it's easier to just fire the employee. If these people weren't such assholes on the internet, there would be no need to fire anyone for saying anything.
@@SirZelean People, individuals need to have the freedom to be stupid, assholes, to hate, etc. Basically do almost anything, by default. Businesses need very few "freedoms" and they certainly don't need to be able to leverage employment to make a welder relinquish their freedom to hold whatever opinions they want outside of work.
Whoa, this is such an unexpected crossover of my algorithms! A new algorithm has been unlocked!
maybe singularity has been achieved?
I originally assumed this was an Asmongold video. Imagine my pleasant surprise!
I don't always agree with Asmon either but as someone who watches him regularly, I agree he is one of the most logical people out there, I almost always agree with his takes. I can't imagine there isn't a private school out there that will be dying to have you.
I feel like ive stepped into the twilight zone with warren smith making this video on asmongold (Im a fan of both) this is unintentionally hilarious. Give it a day or so and there will be a video of asmon reacting this his own reaction within this.
I know right? I'm a new fan of both, I've known of Asmon for a while but been watching a lot of his vids the last couple of months. This shxt is wild. 😂
Or even an interview.
I would love to listen to them talk with each other. It would be so interesting.
I'm pretty sure asmon reacted to this earlier today
Lord Asmongold, I summon you to aid this friendly soul.
There are some times when Asmon says something that makes me want to facepalm about a dozen and a half times. But the one thing I can say is I've never heard an opinion from him that he didn't clearly reason his way into. For that reason, I can respect all of his opinions, even the ones I strongly disagree with. Asmon is absolutely a smart guy. People just like to say he's not because his house is stinky and he lives on a diet of 2 dollar steaks, pizza, and soda.
Good title, he won't be able to resist watching lol. A conversation between you two would be interesting for sure.
NGL I'd love to see you both collab. I think the dialogue would be super interesting/entertaining.

I subscribed to your channel to support you and your way of teaching. Fellow teacher here.
Asmon watcher here, he can be a doofus sometimes, even hypocritical about topics when his buddies are involved...
But overall still more genuine than 99.99% of people on the internet.
I’ve been tutoring mostly math for about 15 years now. The entire approach to teaching our public schools have doesn’t make sense to me. We’re teaching kids to memorize nowadays rather than to think.

I don't know about smartest man. I met my fair share of geniuses and super genius across my life. But, Asmongold is indeed the most logically coherent person I have seen on the internet. Most internet intellectuals dropped their brains once they hit any topic close to their hearts.
both of these guys are victim card pathological liars
Asmon does some silly crap, but the dude is legitimately wise beyond his years. His father and mother raised a very intelligent man.
I literally just watched his coverage of you the other day! And now we're here! I've always enjoyed Asmon's capacity for nuance and not getting caught up in the culture war or emotional biases
Can't wait to watch Asmon react to this video 😄
Subscribed. Learned about you from Asmon. 20+ year teacher myself. Spot on about the publish/perish differences in higher/secondary ed.

I really hope this collab happens. Would make for a interesting conversation between two very bright people and perhaps a great friendship.

100k subscribers almost. Lets go!
I like Asmon and agree that he is logical on about 40% of topics. Pretty good on another 20-30. But that last 30% or so he's pretty bad. In fact, during the Hogwarts Legacy debacle, he had mostly good takes but at that point repeatedly assumed the worst of Rowling, keeping the brunt of his arguments away from her, refusing to even see what she had said because she wasn't a doctor or biologist. To my knowledge, the first time he ever actually heard anything of what she had said was interacting with your videos. He also has a tendency to disregard a lot of arguments from Christian sources, though I won't say that's every time. Even so, he does still have those great takes where he tends to be more on the money than just about anyone else.
Hearing him talk about religion is like hearing a toddler talk about society.
It's just laughably bad, but also adorable. Like yes my child, I would love if we brought a cake to the ants outside, they would become our friends. Unfortunately ants just don't work like that. :(
There are so many factually incorrect things he says about religion, but it's also the factually untrue things that go around social media so it's understandable as someone who isn't religious, hasn't read the information, nor invests in learning the topic, you're going to repeat the same disinformation you've heard.
I was never a big fan of asmon back in the days but as I got older it changed, he's in position where he can say whatever he wants and he doesn't do it for "money". The guy is rich as a troll from my understanding but you wouldn't be able to tell from having seen him. That's quite inspiring to be honest that he isn't trying to be something he isn't just because he has a lot of money. I have a lot of respect for him and some of his opinions as they're unbiased.

Honestly I think he is really one of the most insightful people on youtube. His ability to cut through obfuscation, be logical, and see connections others don't or won't talk about... it's very valuable and rare.
Asmon will farm this video harder then the $2 stake video.
This is the purpose of the video. He wants to be in the spotlight all over again and what better way to do it than guarantee a really big streamer to react to your video.
As long as he doesn't use a bot.... Well Sht, he has the editor. And that one is probably Chinese.
he didn't tho?
One of Asmons mods will probably see this so I can expect a conversation between the two of you happening very soon, looking forward to it.
Shame his wisdom was too much for his college! They have suspended him for being a great educator!
Yes they did. They also took his computer without notice that had years of his work on it.
The exercise of listen without Bias, just for the sake of listening and get to your own conclusions about it anything today, is the new I'm training to speedrun climbing the Everest only on shorts and a dream.
They don't want to work and so don't want anyone else to work, else it rocks the boat. Asmon is more intelligent than most people give him credit.
Yeah, I would love to see you two talk together.
I'm so glad you found receding hairline, prediabetic Jesus.
I have noticed this as well. The thing about Asmon is a can’t really tell if he is “left” or “right”. And I do appreciate that. It is so hard to find that anywhere.
No.
The room is chaos but his mind is ordered.
Hope you stick with YT. You seemed like the kind of teacher i wish i had growing up. Hope your future holds great things ahead. I look forward to future vids.
Here to support bother just saw the locals
Asmon needs to react to this asap
Seeing that critical thinking line of questions with your student (that got you fired), was so incredibly refreshing. You don’t see very many people doing anything like that anymore.
You just asked questions and let your student decide where they wanted to go. It didn’t feel like you had an agenda; it felt like you were trying to get them to use their OWN brain.
I’d love to see more of that and see more people get inspired as well.
I would not have expected this video in a 100 years. Amazing.
You should consider cleaning up your background noise up with a noise gate, refir vst, or whatever else. Many options, I always used refir listen and subtract. Only mentioning it because your video is causing some tinnitus for me XD
There's something weird about it being unusual for individuals to ask questions, and make decisions off of information and not just emotion. We see emotional responses all the time, but how often do we see one informed by thoughts? We live in the height of information freedom for the collective mass, yet it's horrifyingly underutilized.
I started following Asmon due to wow, like probably most people will have but ive kept listening to him over the years due to his thought process. He's a very interesting man.
I want to love these videos, and I do subscribe - but they are so choppy and all over the place
Every time a segue is abruptly made to a new clip, I have no idea what is being discussed, no context for the new clip. I'm just dropped in and have to waste time trying to figure out what the subject matter is
It's frustrating. The important messages here are getting lost in the chaos.
well it's not "if you publish, you perish" it's "if you publish outside the accepted narrative, you perish"
slight difference, but drastically worse
Crazy this happen to you for asking questions, not for taking a side even. Asking question to help someone think for themselve.... crazy times.
It's the cross over I never imagined I'd get I love it 🙌
Don't worry I am 100% sure things will work out in your favour, logic demands it.
We need to get these two together
He needs to react to this.
Out of the 40odd or so teachers through primary to secondary to college to uni, only 4 took the care to inspire and develop my own love of learning and education. N it's sad because teachers like that, like you are rare n being made rarer still.
He's not super bright, but he has this uncanny ability to say what the majority is thinking at any point in time. He's centrist and never really extends any line of thought past very obvious conclusions.
Seems like a really great dude, honestly. I don't think anyone, including Zach, would consider him exceptionally smart, but that's not a strike in my book.
No he is exceptionally bright. And that’s not me call you stupid. I think pointing out how obvious some of the common sense things he says shows that you are bright. I’m not saying I’m smart or brighter either. I just think for today’s society, he knows and understands things better than your average Joe. He has knowledge of multiple things from several different angles. He’s not Einstein but he is skilled with his brain and his speech in his own style. Anyone could learn something from him. ✌️
Street smarts vs Book smarts.
Okay, we need these two to talk live, I really want to see that.
oh boy, i cant wait for the interview in asmon channel. dont worry, the reddit of asmon will make sure, he see this video and you guys can talk. i really like your take on teaching and more teachers shouldbe like you, and less like them(the people that fired you)
Here’s a story about one (my) teacher:
In my third year of high school (1996), I had a sociology teacher who treated us like university students and future academic citizens. He always addressed us with respect, even though he called us uneducated and fools. I wasn’t interested in sociology and didn’t study it. The teacher gave me another chance at the end of the school year. To avoid failing the remedial exam and having to study over the summer, I learned literally all the lessons from the book by the end of the school year.
When the last class came for me to answer, I stood before him and the teacher asked me:
"What did you study, colleague?"
"Everything!" I replied.
"Everything?!" he said, and added that I could choose what I wanted to talk about.
Of all the chapters in the book, the lesson on world religions interested me the most.
I said: "Religion!"
"Excellent, colleague! Excellent!" he said and told me to talk about religious cults.
In the book, there were only a few sentences about religious sects alongside their definition. I remembered everything exactly, almost to the point of recalling the exact page, but at that moment I had a mental block. I couldn’t answer anything. The teacher failed me, and I had to take the remedial exam, which I passed a few months later.
Ten years later, I met him in a restaurant where he was sitting with his wife. I approached him and greeted him. I said: "I apologize for interrupting, but I never had the chance to thank you for failing me on the remedial exam, as it was the best lesson I ever had in my education."
Later, I often met him, and we would frequently have coffee and talk about everything. Whenever I sat with his son, I would ask how his father was and to send him my regards.
A few years ago, I met the teacher again and stopped him to ask him one question.
"Professor, do you remember why you failed me on the remedial exam?" The teacher thought for a moment but couldn’t remember exactly. I explained the whole situation from that distant 1996 and said I was curious about one thing.
I told him that I knew the answer to the question about "religious cults" but had a mental block at that moment. I couldn’t say what was written in the book, nor could I say what I had in mind. I asked him if he would have passed me if I had had the courage to say what I had in mind at that moment.
"What did you want to say?" he asked.
I told him I wanted to quote my thought from that moment: "Professor, I would ban all that by law!"
The teacher replied in less than a second: "Immediately!"
Back then, in 1996, I was only 18 and unaware of many things. Only later did I realize that his approach and attitude towards us, his students, was essentially preparation for our further education, learning critical thinking, and the courage to express ourselves freely.
I still consider him the best teacher I ever had.
Zack is just a genuine guy.
He has a rough, unrefined logical thought process that I can relate to.
He has moments of true profundity and then will immediately say something that makes my eyes do a complete 360 degree roll.
He's nothing if not entertaining.
It led me here and that's something.
You put into words something I struggle to explain.
Asmon is so unrefined and kinda off but the logic is almost perfect.
I think he's right about most things while also being dumb about it.
Man, i've been asleep so i pprobably missed Asmon covering this video on his livestream.. DAMNIT! oh well, gotta wait for the one hour react video i guess :D
Found you through asmon. You were doing the right thing keep doing what you're doing
This guy reminds me so much of Chirstian Bales character in The Big Short.
I’m glad you’re still doing the vids. I was worried for a bit when they fired you.
who fired him?
@@humanbean3 the college he was working at. Free speech except when they don’t like what you say 😀
@@silentone11111111 what college? what's the name of it
This is a very unexpected crossover
It's wild how rare it is to find someone exercising logic and common sense.
DUDE? This is video is Golden. Warren's a fan for sure
I enjoy watching your content. However, one thing is really bothering me. Your Rode mic is a dynamic mic and you have it pointed at the ceiling. In all fairness it is just my 'Tism.
You're the man!!! A lot of people are on the same page as u sir. I hope you still find a way to teach others.
Hey there! I came across your story through tiktok. Massive respect for your dedication to the kids and to helping them grow! They need so much help with so many distractions and misleading influencers. I'm sorry you lost your stable form of income, but (as I'm sure it is to you) more importantly your opportunity to be a guide and shelter to the young mind's you cared for so deeply ❤️ Stay true to what you believe is right! Never let them take your voice! ❤️🙏🏽
